    One of the best albums of all time, Breakfast in America. Sold close to 20 million albums when released in 1979

    Next you would really like “Take the Long Way Home”. Great harmonica in that one.

    We have all been conditioned and moulded by society to think a certain way and be a certain way. I think this song makes you question societies rules and regulations and makes you ask the question 'who is the real me?' If I hadn't conformed to societies rules, what would my true nature be?

      The problem is that schools teach only knowledge (essentially facts to just about pass an exam) rather than teaching people critical thinking and preparing children for life.

      It makes me think about how quickly the entire world would fall apart, with everybody dying from starvation or exposure, if people followed a desire to remain children for their entire lives.

    I've mentioned this before on a ton of other reactors channels.
    The "Breafast in America" tour by Supertramp is still my #3 top concert out of the 1041 concerts I've attended since 1973.
    They sounded just like the studio versions of their songs, just perfect.
    Such an underrated band.

  • @CBGB_1977
    @CBGB_1977 2 роки тому +38

    One of my all-time favorites!
    Check out the whole ‘Breakfast In America’ album. It’s one of those records you can listen to from beginning to end, then flip it over and listen to it again.

    It's so funny that I've heard this song my whole life and never cared for it or listened to the lyrics. With this reaction, I have found an appreciation to this song that I never had before. That's what I love about reaction channels, you hear an old song decades later and enjoy it through fresh ears.

    Great song. Supertramp had a unique sound. No one quite had the same voice. "Crime Of The Century" is their best album imo. Check that one out sometime.
    Simple message in this song to me. Dont give up your passion and what uniquely makes you and who YOU are.
    Education is important, but dont just think materialistically. Going to school to gain acceptance and a great paying job. But do what truly moves your soul.

    • @bobangell1679
      @bobangell1679 2 роки тому +1

      Crime of the Century, the best no doubt, but they had a few really strong albums. I just listened to the full COTC album on a drive up to Maine last weekend.

    7:54 The only thing music tells me now vs then, is the fact that back then artists and producers cared about the music, now they only care about making it(artists, if I can call them that!) producers for sure they collect; because music and nowadays artists are just the same as fast food in quality.

    Each of us encounters that point in our lives when we see the “world” for what it is……It’s in this moment that we decide to “Toe the line”, or “Cast aside supposed obligations”, and chart a course for ourselves. Because we’re “finite”, we know that neither venture is the rightful answer, but we choose our fate and accept it.

    When I was younger in grade school, I thought they were singing about going to a mental ward. Now I know he's singing about school, but I have come to the conclusion they might be the same place at times. Depending on the person and the treatment he or she gets during thier time incarcerated at school...

    That was one of those "must have" records in the -70´s. I bought, of nostalgic reasons Supertramp the very best . With sons like School, Dreamer, Crime of the century and Logical song on. They truly did some great songs

  • @reha1066

    Ha. I used to fish up in Alaska on a factory trawler processing Surimi. I had a walkman and a Supertramp "Breakfast in America" tape that I would listen to ALL SHIFT or until I had an opportunity to change the tape. The newer walkmans had a flip and repeat, so it would play one side of the tape, then automatically switch to the other side. It would play over and over and over. So watching this reaction made me remember back to early 90s. Supertramp was with me through those hard years. Thanks Supertramp and thanks for playing this one.

  • @peterhall2810

    For a prophetic song from the 60's try 'Eve of Destruction' by Barry Maguire. Banned by the BBC for being too relevant to the Cold War,then taking place, it still has the same relevance today.

    @babylonsister118 2 роки тому +1

    How they (school and society) tries to squash the divinity and the creativity out of you and replace it with the drudgery, and monotony of life. Like they want us to come off of an assembly line.

    Supertramp is one of my all time favorite bands, great vocals, instruments and just an unique sound. Their album from 1979 BREAKFAST IN AMERICA was a huge seller. Some other songs by SUPERTRAMP worth listening to are TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME, SCHOOL, GOODBYE STRANGER and BLOODY WELL RIGHT.

    Great song, and i agree with you, man.
    They make you learn the most strange and stupid things at school. I hated school, had a lot of fun, but hated the learning. I've been working with my hands my whole life, and not sorry about it. Had a verry good and, most of all, a fun life. There is no excuse for what they teach you, however.
    When you grow up, you think for yourself, and do the best you can. Thanks for this one and 👊🌷😁❤from Holland

  • @peterramsay4674
    @peterramsay4674 2 роки тому +3

    It’s so true. I tried so hard to make it in this world. Trying to do everything just the way society dictated. There was just one problem. I didn’t like the person I was pretending to be. This song always makes me think of all those wasted years trying to fit a mould I wasn’t meant to fit. The moment I decided to hell with it, I’m going to do things my way, my life made sense to me again. It didn’t gain me sudden riches or perfect life but I knew who I was and I could sleep at night knowing succeed or fail, I did it my way and I was ok with that

    I have been fortunate enough to have seen Supertramp “The Tramp” Live 4 times. Their live shows are a spectacle and brilliant. Each member is a musical genius. Rick Davies is my favorite keyboards player and John Helliwell is favorite Sax player. He is a blast to watch live. The bass and drummer are awesome and Roger’s guitars are superb. The only live show I put above Supertramp is Pink Floyd, who I have seen 4 times.

  • @treubuchet

    So Supertramp had two lead singer/songwriters, one from an affluent upbringing, the other not. The one singing, Hodgson, is on record as saying he had a very happy childhood, always smiling, full of innocence, protected from the financial difficulties most families face. He went to a private school, on leaving, he saw the world for what it is. This song is about that transition.
    Supertramp had an astonishing start and very nearly didn't make it. They had one last chance and it was the album, Crime of the Century that was their breakthrough. The next to albums were not as well received, but it was the one that this track came from that sent them through the stratosphere - Breakfast in America (it was received extremely well the US too).
    At their peak, they wrote amazing lyrics set to great tunes, all mastered to perfection. Awesome musician's, this album is regarded as one of the most important rock/progressive rock albums of all-time, and rightly so.
    They are one of the greatest UK exports, and I for one feel that my appreciation of music was shaped, in part, by their love for music.
    Sadly, groups like this do not exist anymore, perhaps they never will. So listen to their songs, marvel at their talent and remember; good music never ages, it matures like a good wine and just gets better.
    To bring prog rock up to date, can I recommend you listen to more Radiohead?

    BEST CONCERT EVER! Victoria BC, Canada back in the 80s. We were a total of *Only Twelve People* at their arena concert that had 10,000 seats. Thought we were about to see Ted Nugget but marquee displayed an unknown band call SUPERTRAMP. Checked them out anyways and *What Professionals*. Performed like was a sold out show, then encored their entire unreleased *Breakfast in America* album.

    Hi Recklezz, that was me who said that, many thanks for the mention! Yes, I mean I enjoy lots of reaction channels, but they are often cluelezz about the songs they listen to. I don't know if it helps to know that Supertramp were an English rock group or not, but I think knowledge is good and it adds to the experience, so long as you're not spoiled in some way.
    As to Supertramp they are great and have loads of good songs. I went to see Roger Hodgson (the lead singer in this one) at the Royal Albert Hall in London a few years ago and he put on a great show, all the Supertramp hits. He did one song I'd never heard before, and I suggest you give this one a listen as no ever does it: 'Hide In Your Shell'.
    Plus, there's s Supertramp song that got everyone up and singing along, and that's 'It's Raining Again'. Kind of fitting for the UK, really!
    Late Edit: Yes, it's about educating the freedom out of someone and making them fit the idea of 'normality'. It's Raining Again has a killer sax as well, if that's an incentive!
