The song captures the feel of the last few moments of life when you come to a place of peace. All the worldly things are no longer important, and you realize that all is well.
Absolutely.
One of my most FAVOURITE songs of all time - gorgeous and haunting all rolled into one - Beautiful
Well described: "gorgeous and haunting". One of my favorites too.
The ultimate love song
Yeah, a timeless classic song, gorgeous and haunting...
Donald Roeser wrote the lyrics. He has stated that he was contemplating his own mortality, his love for his wife, and had faith that it would continue after death. He was comforted by this thought. Roeser said he was aware the theme was dark but never intended the song to be "an excuse for someone to commit suicide." You are one of the few people that actually gets this song. I'm proud of you.
It's one of the most beautiful songs EVER written. Hauntingly beautiful.
Beautiful love song
One of rock's most perfectly written, executed, and sound recorded masterpieces ever. They just got it all together with this tune. I feel the same about their song "Then Came The Last Days of May" another masterpiece and based on a true story.
I would add in Astronomy as well
We saw Blue Oyster Cult in Houston, in 1975, opening for Rod Stewart. Man, they blew Stewart away. My husband and I went the next day and got their album. Loved them ever since.
Rod was asking for trouble
@@petergray2588 He shouldn't have ditched The Faces. He might have stood a better chance.
I was at the Madison Sq Garden version of that show and the crowd went wild.Even Rod said "Won't you cheer for me like you did for your Blue Oyster Cult" LOL I've seen them over 150 times and this was to this day the most exciting set I've ever seen.
B.O.C - Cities are flamed with rock n roll and veteran of psychic wars ..
More Cowbell!!!!!
one of the great classic opening riffs of all time.
First 2 notes, you know the song.
Classic rock song 👍👍👍👍
I need more cowbell!
@Ricky Jeffrey I got a fever! #MORECowbell
I thought the same thing!!
beat me to it! :D
High quality cowbell for sure.
I wish I had never seen that SNL skit! Now I can't hear this classic rock masterpiece without thinking of it!
Such an underrated rock band…..
agreed
Tell me about it. One of the tightest bands ever!
Maybe now Not than!!!
Google the Black and Blue concert Lebanon Valley speadway august 8th 1980! What a show!!! I was there!!! ☺️
The new album The Symbol Remains is great.
@@grahamtaylor8912 New album? Really?
Buck Dharma, the songwriter, said the song isn't about suicide, but understands how people would think that due to the Romeo and Juliet reference. Though he believes his songs should be open to interpretation by whoever listens to them, this is what he said about its inspiration: "It was sort of inspired by a personal health scare - I thought I was going to maybe not live that long. I had been diagnosed with a heart condition, and your mind starts running away with you - especially when you're young-ish. So, that's why I wrote the story. It's imagining you can survive death in terms of your spirit. Your spirit will prevail."
Bullshit! Suicide plain and simple.
Something I just read said it was written by Donald Roeser, the guitarist...
But it did say he didn't intend it to be about suicide...
Cliff, you're really stinking up the place... 🤣
@@neillenet291 And he would not lie,,would he..Lmao.
@@neillenet291 Remember the stink that went up in this time period about Satanic and suicide songs in rock and roll. Some writers were even brought into court over the lyrics to their songs. Reason enough to lie.
Blue Oyster Cult rocks!! Godzilla, Fire of Unknown Origin, Dominance and Submission, Nosferatu, In Thee, Death Valley Nights, Redeemed... All absolute bangers! 👍
Showing my age here: I bought this record for 3 dollars, back when all the stores were getting rid of vinyl. Still have it!
Yup
More Cowbell!!!!
Beyond the great lyrics in this song, they are very smooth in their musical dynamics...just flowing like a river from being very soft to full-on power. It all works to draw out emotions.
I gotta have more cowbell. One of snl’s greatest skits.
we used to sing “don’t smoke the reefer” 🌳
👍👍yup!
We did though! ☺️
BLASPHEMY!!! ;)
Lol😆 yep
BOO!!!!! 1950's style I mean. Anyone got a bat? Ya don't whistle Stairway OK? I actually don't Know where to begin. OK I've probably done worse, but not on purpose. Or wait was it? OMG Soever did I invest in? Stewie Family Guy? No idea.
Charlie mac I challenge you to a duel. Wait, I forgot what we were talking about. I'll listen again.
My dear you have opened the door. You have listened to Blue oyster cult. Now you must listen to their song Godzilla it is mandatory.♥️
Yes indeed! I like the vid re-done with actual clips from the original 1970s movie🦖😎🎸🎹🥁🤙
Saw them 3 times when I was a kid in the 70s. Saw them again 2 year's ago at age 57. Still awesome and the new album is excellent.
My absolute favourite, first heard it in Halloween 78, great choice so deep x
band has been around since the 70's from long island, NY & still playing.
Worked local crew for them mid-'90s. Great guys! Get in the bus with the family and go on tour. So fun! Also watched them blow the mains in a thousand seater. Twice. In the same show. They ran out of fuses.
It needs more cowbell
I had the pleasure of seeing them live twice.
My favorite BOC song and always will be.
It's NOT about encouraging suicide like some think. It's a love song. I will continue to love you even then.
The beginning of Stephen King's "The Stand" (1994 and best version) features this at the beginning.
Another band with this kind of vibe and depth you need to check out if you haven't already is Kansas.
After years of listening to this song it still gives me chills so no, you’re not wrong. Great reaction as always. ❤️
Great choice! One of my all time favorite bands. Their music can transport you to different places and times. Black Blade, I Love the Night, Take Me Away and of course Godzilla!
I listen to this song everyday. It's so amazing, and it's relatable in so many ways it's become saddening.
It's definitely something about this song....... giving ya chills 👍❤️😂
My first concert!!
Mine too. I've seen them at least 20 times.
Hey hey.... can't wait to hear your thoughts on this timeless and AMAZING classic!!
YES!! Cowbell Rulz
My wife of 45 years just died, hard to listen to this song.
So sorry for your loss😞
@@HappyValleyDreamin No words can describe it. I can't get past thinking she will walk in at any moment.
I’m so sorry for your loss. May your memories and future days be blessed.🙏
My prayers are heading your way may God bless you and your wife's soul. 🙏
So sorry for your loss 😭
MORE COWBELL...!
UNREAL !!! Goosebumps city, baby!!! Damn, I didn't have my cow bell at the ready Mama !?! Exceptional piece of music 😮😊❤
When they were prepping for a major tour they tuned up in small clubs as "Soft White Underbelly". I saw them in Sacramento, CA at a club called "The Oasis", maybe 250 people absolutely jam packed and they lifted the roof right off the place. In the top ten shows I ever saw.
Your interpetation is pretty much spot on.
The breakdown/solo is my favorite of all time. Almost like the reaper grabs your hand himself, and you begin to fly.
i was them in marietta, ohio at the peopes bank they can rock still, its only a 46 year old song, they rocked, oh no theres tokyo, gogo godzilla, that a classic too- im glad they came here for me to see
Excellent song and the focus of a famous SNL skit.
This is DEFINITELY a chill worthy song.
Wow thank you for listening to this with us 🥰
Love this group! More cowbell!!!!!
I love BOC! They are a great live band and always have been. This song is a big favorite. Has so much going on. Try next "Then Came the Last Days of May". Thanks for reacting to this Reaper!
Yes!!! Godzilla next please 🔥🎵
Great reaction!! 💜
Death, the gift that keeps on giving! You've nailed the meaning, good job!
Really explore the studio space. I mean, really.. explore the space. 🐮 🔔
I grew up with this music and I'm thrilled you're discovering it now.
another great tune I grew up listening to as a teenager - Got to say my teenage years late 70s & 80s did have great music - thanks for the tunes and glad you are reacting to them
I saw BOC in Denver Colorado USA....... free show and they were Phenominal..... Rock n Roll at its very Best 🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼
Positiv hypnotic sounds.
I got a fever and the only prescription is MORE COWBELL
Love um one of my faves
Don't be afraid to live enjoy everyday.
.
...""CRAAAAAZY as a FIDDLE-STICK !!"
.
( I steal this !!)
.
Loved your reaction to this one, Jayy! Thanks for all you do!
Yes, the story is told by the Reaper, trying to get everyone to just mellow and come with him.
Awesome reaction! You should listen to I Love the Night, I'm burning for you and Godzilla, by them. I think you might like those songs.
Awesome reaction, Jayy!
The contrast between the relative intimacy of the vocal/harmony and the subject of the song is interesting; as is the contrast between the powerful guitar solo and the repeating, jangling, Byrds-like main melody. There is a Romanticism in the lyrics that reminds me of John Keats's poem Ode to a Nightingale. "I have been half in love with easeful Death" is the quotation I'm thinking of.
No,not just you.grew up on this and it's one of my favorite songs!
Check out Go GO Godzilla by Blue Oyster Cult
You might try Veterans of the Psychic wars. This song is on the Heavy Metal sound track.
Then you’re going down the whole Moorcock rabbit hole with Black Blade etc and onto Hawkwind for more of the same,can’t beat Needlegun
I liked this song when it first came out on the radio. This is one of the songs that I don't get tired of
7 Screaming Diz-Busters is another great tune ..again from on your feet or on your knees album
The chills of "A minor"
Love this song, it plays at the beginning of Stephen Kings The Stand miniseries. Didn't even realise there was a cowbell until I watch SNL 🤣🤣🤣
When I hear this song I think of Laurie Strode and Annie Bracken driving in thr car on their way to babysit in Halloween. (1978). Playing on the radio
Your reaction to the burst of the elemental chorus is lovely, hon. I’m glad to see such a shock.if you didn’t have one, I’d be concerned, lol.
Don't fear the reaper, great song. Love your channel 👍 and song intro 🇦🇺🇦🇺
More cowbell. Lol
I saw them in concert back in 1977 great show.
Hi pretty Jayy! Great song here. This was my cousins fav song. RIP Jamie! Thx for sharing with us Jayy.
PERFECT understanding and great reaction! 👍🏿
at 5:22 ish do the lyrics say 'She had become like they are'.. Reminds me of what de gaulle said when his daughter , who had Downs Syndrome , died young; " And now, she is like the rest. " Kind of moving. Death is the great equaliser of course, life on earth is wretched in that the tragedy of difference between one human destiny and another, is too wide.
Great choice!!
I'm glad you liked it. The change-ups are AMAZING!
Great song and beautiful lady reacting.
One of the greatest rock songs of all time
Please check out Cities on Flame by the amazing
Blue Oyster Cult
Katy just got slapped by a solo and she loved it. 🎸😲😳😃💖
Fantastic song, album, and one of the best live bands ever!
Possibly my favorite song of all time
Classic song very good
Jayy, I wish you grew up with me. We had all the good songs in the 60s and 70s
Saw them in college back in the '70s. Great concert with a lot of pyrotechnics. Still love this song among others. Thanks
this is the best reaction of this song.
#MORECowbell ❤️😊🤘😎
The reaper is your guardian angel taking you home as far as I'm concerned. My OPINION!!!!! Great song, great reaction.
LOVE THE REACTION ON THE MIDDLE EXPLOSION GIRL! :)
Reminds me of working at K2 ski corporation Vashon Island,Washington State when alot of us had good boom boxes in the press rooms. Moulding skis and partying.
I love your channel and also the fact that young people can rediscover that old people used to be cool to.
Next up Burnin for you
There are a fair amount of gems with this band
Godzilla.
Burning For You
Take Me Away
They have hardly done a bad song...
Bruce Springsteen wrote this song. I got to hang out with these guys at a bar once. Great time.
Jayy just love your reactions ,keep the music flowing
You got it exactly right on first listen. Thanks, I enjoyed your video.
Love is eternal....
Your analysis was spot on.
That spot after the lead break with the sustain - ONE OF THE FINEST MOMENTS IN ROCK HISTORY
one of the greatest tracks in history
MORE COWBELL!!!
@@shawnbond6676 😂
a classic... she needs to watch that video
Guys, you’re gonna want the cowbell on the track…
Bruce Dickinson puts his pants on one leg at a time. And once his pants is on he makes gold records, baby!
🤣🤣
Killer solo on this one. Check out some more of them. One of the most underrated rock bands ever. I will recommend “Burning for you” next
First concert I ever saw was BOC and Black Sabbath, Buck Dharma is one of the greatest guitar players of all time. This song is an emotional rollercoaster all in itself, simply amazing.
BOC got their start in the late 60's on Long Island, NY as a Psychedelic Rock band but later moved more towards a Progressive Rock sound..
There's over 40 years of amazing g BOC music to dive into. Enjoy..
