@@j.h.3777 people,who have never listened to them...they are an underrated band, if you put them out there with other big names of the time. They sometimes are forgotten. Just because YOU don't know anyone, doesn't make it so...

It makes me so sad that you had never heard of the genius that is Supertramp, but so happy that now you know and can jump into their amazing catalog. This is one of those bands that reactor after reactor discovers, and can't understand why they aren't better known.
I am a hard-core rocker through and through. Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Van Halen and ZZ Top are my favorites.

One of my favorite bands of all time. And this album, seriously every song is good. I have it on vinyl. I listen to it frequently. Beautiful is an underestimation.
I prefer the earlier material from Crime of the Century, Crisis what Crisis, Even in the quietest Moments albums, less commercial. But Breakfast is still a good album.
Supertramp is such an underrated band!! I can't think of a single song that I don't like! Thank you so much for doing this song! Do your selves a huge favor and dive deep into the greatness! 💚
You can't categorize them with just one song. They are like Pink Floyd, amazing instrumentation and deep lyrics, but their own unique style. There are many good songs.
The guy singing is Roger Hodgson who wrote the lyrics which is about his personal experience of being sent away to a boarding school as a very young boy. My personal favourites by them are Goodbye Stranger and Rudy but all their tunes are a great listen.
Supertramp were an English rock band formed in London, England in mid 1969. They had so many great songs in the 70's-80's such as "The Logical Song", "Breakfast In America", "Goodbye Stranger", "Take The Long Way Home", "Dreamer" "Give A Little Bit", "It's Raining Again", "Bloody Well Right", "My Kind Of Lady", "Cannonball", "I'm Beggin' You", "You Win, I Lose" etc.
I agree !! Actually, they should be giving a first listen to virtually all studio versions first. For one thing, studio versions have more understandable lyrics. I don't know who keeps suggesting these LIVE performances (?)
Not that this wasn't a good live performance. But one of the things with Supertramp, and especially that album Breakfast In America, is the production on the songs is really really good. And there's a lot of little things with this song that they didn't recreate live. In general, if you haven't heard a song before by an artist or band, you should always do the album version first. Unless most people tell you that the live version is the way to go, the studio version should really be your first listen to get a feel for the song and the band.
They started as progressive rock, at this point in their career and this song, it's more pop rock. With lots of extras, like the horns & whistles. Crime of the Century is a "desert island" album, one of those with no bad songs. Listen to it in order, starting with School, followed by Bloody Well Right, and the rest. (Yes, Roger really did NOT appreciate being sent away to school.)
@@christinerobinson9372 People think of "Crime of the Century" as their first album, and it was their first BIG album, with their "classic" band lineup, but they had two prior. A self-titled one, and Indelibly Stamped. "Crime" is a perfect gem; the prior two have some good songs but are a bit uneven. I discovered them as a wee teen, when my sister & her hubs went to see Pink Floyd, and Supertramp was their opening act. I recommend listening to them the way we did, back in the day; the entire first side, a pause, then the second side. Sooo good with headphones.
In 1974 Supertramp released an album that should easily be in 90% of 70's music lovers top ten desert island albums. It should be listened to front to back, much like most Pink Floyd and Zeppelin albums. If you don't agree with me then that might be the crime of the century. Asia and BJ, you guys are all right. I enjoy your reactions very much because you concentrate on my favorite era/period of music, 1965-1980's. Cheers from the canadian Queen nut.
In college, late seventies, I splurged for two mobile fidelity sounds labs master pressing LPs - Dark Side of the Moon and Crime of the Century. Definitely agree with you.
Supertramp seemed very innovative and different back in the day when they first came out. The whole "Breakfast In America" album was fire and most of my friends had it in their collections.
They are one of the premiere Progressive Rock bands. Hit anything from the "Crime of the Century" or "Even In The Quietest Moments" albums to see why...
Supertramp was the first concert I ever saw. I was 10, Jarry Park, Montréal, 1979. I remember being mesmerized by the performance. Fast forward to November 2019, Roger Hodgson is the last concert I saw before the pandemic. He still sounded just as great as the first time I heard him 40 years prior. If I had to pick, I think I would have to go with Hide In Your Shell as my favourite song,.
I love all of Supertramp! It was one of my most favourite groups - started listening in middle school as a teen when they came out. Must dive in! Crime of the Century is fabulous. And their other albums too.
Great reaction guys! These guys are uber talented musicians, songwriters and lyricists. Check out Bloody Well Right. Big hit and a personal fav. Cheers!!
Supertramp without a sax is like Jethro Tull without a flue or without T-Pane without autotune. And they really do live for the breakdown. This is their version of "Another Brick in the Wall."
I hope you listen to the recorded version of this one as well. Thanks for the reminder, I haven’t listened to Supertramp in a while…I am heading to my Spotify playlist!
Supertramp...... I have had the extreme pleasure of seeing “The Tramp” LIVE 4 times. They are musical geniuses on every song they do. Rick Davies - Favorite Piano Player…. John Helliwell - Favorite Sax Player
My GOD I am getting old. I remember when this song first dropped back in the 70’s. I was a kid, but I remember hearing and thinking “what the hell is this!?” and immediately after that thinking “I must hear more!”
Great reaction! Supertramp is a deep well, songs like: school, bloody well right, Give a little bit, Rudy, dreamer, hide in your Shell, take the long way home, casual conversations, Lord is it in mine, Child of vision you get the idea the list goes on happy listening🤘🏼
Their album, Crime of the Century, is considered one of the best progressive albums of all time. This is the first hit from their album, Breakfast in America, which is sometimes called art rock.
This came from the album Breakfast In America and to me it's in my top ten records since the day it came out. Goodbye Stranger and Take The Long Way Home might be the way to go next.
"I said, watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical a Liberal, oh fanatical, criminal Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're acceptable Respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable"
It sounds familiar because Scooter created a remix of it and it's definitely a throwback! You've definitely heard it!!! ♥️ Check out Scooters remix of this song.
Supertramp did come out of that progressive rock stable but also incorporated jazz and a few other things. They were a really good group with some tremendous songs like this one.
Prog Rock... at least to start, Roger Hodgson on vocals and keys. Brilliant writers and performers- I did see them on their Farewell Tour and they were mesmerizing. Peace from Canada- be safe.
I wonder if the lack of knowledge amongst American reactors is down to the way their radio stations operate. As a Brit, we used to have a main pop station, and others doing bits of evergreens, cookery chat etc, plus of course offshore 'pirate' radio. That meant we heard current hits frequently but also some older stuff mixed in now and then, so almost everyone grew up having heard the names of artists from 1950's onwards plus their biggest hits
The entire album Breakfast in America is a masterpiece , and you must to react to these other super songs from them : "Take the long way home", "Goodbye Strangers" , "Its Raining again", "babaji" and "school"
Of course you heard the song before somewhere. It's a famous song. Studio version, as usual, is much better. You should always review the studio version of songs, because those are the versions everybody knows and loves, and the live versions are usually disappointing, because the studio sound is impossible to recreate live.
Such a unique and innovative band, Their album Breakfast in America was released on March 29, 1979 and would a huge success, it topped the Billboard album charts for 6 weeks. You gotta take a listen to "Take the Long Way Home" and " Goodbye Stranger" two more great songs by Supertramp.
I'd be surprised if you haven't heard their song 'Dreamer' in the past. It was their break out hit in the UK and several other countries and though the studio version didn't really impact on USA the live version did about five years later. Some bands defy genre labelling, e.g. Queen, ELO, 10CC and so on, and Supertramp are in that group, though they were definitely a prog rock band at the start they evolved over time into a prog pop band. Pick anything from them and you won't be disappointed.
Whenever I listen to Supertramp, I'm reminded of being 15 years old when my younger brother and I broke the windows of my mother's closets, listening to "Dreamer" at full volume. I don't think she ever forgot either.
the whole "Live in Paris" album is just great.....for the longest time the footage of this concert was lost...only recently discovered that you can see some 'videos' of this concert like this one.... other 'well known' songs on there are "Breakfast in America", "School", "Dreamer", "Bloody well right", "Take the long way home" and "Crime of the century"....
If I had to pick a genre to describe Supertramp, I'd say they are Progressive Rock/Pop. Very unique sound and they have a lot of amazing songs! Please react to their hit "Bloody Well Right" next. 😎 Here is the remastered version from the Deluxe edition of their Crime of the Century album: ua-cam.com/video/-YAMbLHcS-8/v-deo.html You won't regret it! This song rocks and has more of that great sax! 🎶🎷
No doubt you probably heard it, Asia. It was a big hit. Their other hits include Give A Little Bit, Goodbye Stranger, Take The Long Way Home, Dreamer, and Breakfast In America.
Hi Asia & BJ, I`ve always loved this song, glad you liked it. You should also checkout (Little Boxes) by Malvina Reynolds in 1962, it`s along similar lines, IMO. :)
One of there songs was sampled in a remix that you guys would know. Take a look at my girlfriend, badadoda! I don’t remember the rapper that sampled it but Supertramps version is called Breakfast in America

Supertramp is so under-rated.
The entire "Breakfast in America" album is a treasure.
Not a bad song on the album.
💯 Right...
There are some rare albums that don't have a bad song.
Breakfast in America.
Floyd and dark side.
Fleetwood Mac rumours and to be fair tango too..
I would even go as far as songs from the big chair by tears for fears..
There's a few out there..
Such a phenomenal album
Under-rated only by people who haven’t heard of them. Wonder how many critically acclaimed albums the have and how many they’ve sold?
@@antonytheolddog8626 Yes - Close to the Edge
@@artcranston154 Rick Wakeman is a total ledge..
I know he's a Brentford fan and chairman.

Top bloke and genius ..

Sorry..I meant Bowie..😁🙏
The singer/keyboard player Roger Hodgson has written more than one song about how the system screws kids up.

Oh yes. I'm young again!
I am a hard-core rocker through and through. Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Van Halen and ZZ Top are my favorites.

You like what you like I guess. #SorryNotSorry🤷🏼♂️
Been a fan of Supertramp since the 70's. "Breakfast In America" is an amazing album!
One of my favorite bands of all time. And this album, seriously every song is good. I have it on vinyl. I listen to it frequently. Beautiful is an underestimation.
Supertramp is one of the greats...More songs to check out: Take The Long Way Home, Breakfast in America :)
Goodbye Stranger!
I prefer the earlier material from Crime of the Century, Crisis what Crisis, Even in the quietest Moments albums, less commercial. But Breakfast is still a good album.
The logical song to check out for Supertramp is Goodbye Stranger.
What I came to say.....
@@2869may Studio versions should be first
Goodbye Stranger is total ear candy. Then follow up with "Give A Little Bit"
It's been nice.
Hope you find your paradise
Supertramp is such an underrated band!! I can't think of a single song that I don't like! Thank you so much for doing this song! Do your selves a huge favor and dive deep into the greatness! 💚
You are so right! One of the best rock bands ever! Every song they did had its own sound! Their music never gets old! ❤

Supertramp was a singularly extraordinary band of the late 70’s. When I hear them I am instantly transported to my senior year in High School. 1979
Same here in Australia. Class of 79
My exact sentiment.
Supertramp were an English rock band formed in London, England in mid 1969. They had so many great songs in the 70's-80's such as "The Logical Song", "Breakfast In America", "Goodbye Stranger", "Take The Long Way Home", "Dreamer" "Give A Little Bit", "It's Raining Again", "Bloody Well Right", "My Kind Of Lady", "Cannonball", "I'm Beggin' You", "You Win, I Lose" etc.
Personally, I like the studio version better on this one
They do a pretty good job live here but I agree, the sound on their albums is so superb it is best enjoyed with headphones (like I did in the '70's).
@@j.h.3777 regardless its a great live version of the song
I agree !! Actually, they should be giving a first listen to virtually all studio versions first. For one thing, studio versions have more understandable lyrics. I don't know who keeps suggesting these LIVE performances (?)
Me too .
I couldn't watch this entire reaction for that specific reason .
You will love this band! So many great tunes like Give a Little Bit,Goodbye Stranger,Bloody Well Right,And Dreamer, among more tunes!
Supertramp is amazing! The Crime of the Century Album is incredible, check it out!
For me its there best album...
Supertramp's talent is through the roof with many great songs in their catalog.
Supertramp is a dynamic band. Never too late to start diving into their deep catalog. Fool’s Overture is an absolute classic. Give it a listen.
Not that this wasn't a good live performance. But one of the things with Supertramp, and especially that album Breakfast In America, is the production on the songs is really really good. And there's a lot of little things with this song that they didn't recreate live. In general, if you haven't heard a song before by an artist or band, you should always do the album version first. Unless most people tell you that the live version is the way to go, the studio version should really be your first listen to get a feel for the song and the band.
Totally agree !! I stated the same thing in the comments above.
That's what I keep saying about the studio version of Pink Floyd's 'Echoes', vs the Pompeii version, but I've been overruled by public opinion.
They started as progressive rock, at this point in their career and this song, it's more pop rock. With lots of extras, like the horns & whistles. Crime of the Century is a "desert island" album, one of those with no bad songs. Listen to it in order, starting with School, followed by Bloody Well Right, and the rest. (Yes, Roger really did NOT appreciate being sent away to school.)
amen.
Boarding school.
I didn't know they started as progressive, I have to explore that!
Right right... you bloody well right !!!

Don't forget Breakfast in America, those three albums are all fantastic.

One of my favorite groups, I had to go see them. One of the best show's I've been to right up there with Queen. More please. Enjoy
Such an awesome tune. Got me through many times as a youth. And so did Its a Long Way Home.
He's singing about how life it self takes joy away in exchange for practicality.
There is a song on the same album called Child of vision that is just great.

When I was growing up, everyone considered Supertramp prog rock. One of my favorite albums is Breakfast In America.

Give a Little Bit, a close second.

Super tramp is considered progressive rock like rush pink Floyd and yes. Those are the most popular
You guys have to do more SUPERTRAMP!!! One of the best concerts I had ever seen. some titles to check out. Bloody Well Right, School and Rudy.
The closest genre to classify: Progressive Rock (classic rock yes but prog-rock) like Styx, Rush, ELO, Kansas, Yes, Asia.
I had to analyze this song in my AP English Class as a Senior in 1989. Lyrics are actually amazing when you break it down.
You can tell Asia is a musician by her reaction to many parts of songs. When the sax hit, she got it!
Prog Rock... at least to start, Roger Hodgson on vocals and keys. Brilliant writers and performers- I did see them on their Farewell Tour and they were mesmerizing. Peace from Canada- be safe.
It's life....the older you get you lose that "every day is magical" feeling...
