When a guy can step up to the microphone and sing this song exactly like he sung it at the recording studio and sound every bit as good live, he’s the real deal. there aren’t many who can do that. Really love his voice
Tony Alfano, you're exactly right. I've always loved GFR. They were right over the border in Michigan from me. Sadly I never got to see them live, but had all their albums. Mark was always a pro! Take care.
Don't know why it took me this long to realize that Mark Farner's vocal on "Bad Time" from 1975 is as remarkable as Mickey Thomas singing the Elvin Bishop tune "Fooled Around and Fell in Love," released in 1976.
One word, WOW!! Mark has an incredible voice and there are very few people on this planet that can stand up on a stage, play guitar and sing as well has he can, an amazingly great performance.
It's time to bury the hatchet, forgive each other and reunite before it's too late. Don't just do it for your fans, do it for yourselves. Forgiveness is freedom. Finish your life without regrets....
68 now and have such great memories of Mark , Don and Mel , please you guys , one last time ? Haven't been to a concert since the 70 's , but if this was to happen Boy would that be truly magical.
MARK IS AT THE VERY TOP FOR HIS VOCALS , GUITAR PLAYING AND ALL THE INSTRUMENTS HE PUTS HIS HANDS ON ! KEEP ROCKING MARK ! GOD BLESS YOU THROUGH JESUS CHRIST AMEN ! 😇 TINA ALIMO
I wish like Hell that Grand Funk could put their Bad Times with each other aside long enough to give Life Long Fans that one last Thank You Mega-Tour . We need closure to such a Great Band .
Bands with members who hate each other and then get back together for "one last Thank You Mega Tour" is the ultimate in cynical money grubbing. I wonder, in your scenario, who is thanking who?
Mark has said he’d like to do another tour as GFR, it’s the other two (that cheated him out of his cut) that are the hold outs. Zero respect for Don and Mel for the way they treated him, in the end it’s their loss, without Mark they are not even a good cover band. Mark Farner IS Grand Funk Railroad!!
This song reminds me of when my girlfriend broke up with me in 1975. I can’t hear it without thinking of her. It’s been a long time ago now but still brings those feelings back every time I hear it. It’s a powerful song for me! Great group! Great song!
Sorry for your sorrow. I had the same deal with Boston "Don't Look Back" although the difference was that the song was my inspiration to get through the pain. I saw her decades after being happily married and thought that I dodged a bullet! Sometimes what seems to be a disaster is the best thing that could happen to you!
I love to see that GFRR still has so many followers, 2nd rock I've ever seen, blew my Fn mind at the Winter Land SF, I was 16 years, many great memories, thanks fellas.
Hermosa canción.......y el maestro sigue con el poder del rock. Y esos que critican el gallito que se escuchó........por favor!! eso demuestra envidia.
Kevin you are so right I 65 and still rocking in 2021the very best music I was lucky to grow up it the 70s fast cars hot women and plenty of good smoke
Sad to think of Grand Funk Railroad without his talent. How many albums of new songs has the band done without Mark = 0. Farner has made many albums with great songs since he was forced out.
Agree bro...it always amazes me where the find camera operators that don't have a clue what they need to be shooting. But probably if someone over headphones would have told him to get the solo he would have filmed the pick instead of his fingers...all you can pray for is that they were a student or a volunteer...
Cameraman here. It’s up to the director or TD technical director to switch the camera shots. This also could have been edited in post. I agree tho, they picked a “BadTime” to switch shots.
I'm in love with a girl that I'm talking about.....I'm in love with a girl that I can't live without....I'm in love.....but I sure picked a bad time to be in love": He is singing something that happen to me about 3 years or so ago ....word for word.......One a happier note: went to amazon and got their greatest hits cd....this man can sing with such emotion.......thank you for sharing.....
NYC girl would love to meet this guy. he's sooo awesome and he's such an amazing singer. still has the pipes and never lost them. seems like a really nice guy especially to a fan :) far as I'm concerned he is grand funk.
Mark was great. My friend brought his autistic son. We were in the first row & Mark & his guitar player definitely noticed us. After the show there was a meet & greet & when we met him he thanked my friend for bringing his son. The concert was great & Mark told some old stories & one story he told was being on a jet with his band, Janis Joplin & the Stones. He told us Janis put chocolate all over the seats just to ruin Mick Jaggers white satin pants. If you get the chance go see him. Only song he didn't sing was We're an American Band. Mark didn't write it.
NYC girl yeah id love to see mark. My dad loves grand funk and farner. We would both love to see him if he ever came to Ontario Canada. He hardly comes here sadly. His voice is still amazing and has never changed. He is grand funk. I would love to meet him and get an autograph and shake the man's hand. Of course its not marks song. Don brewer sings that song. Mark sings his own songs he wrote and sang with grand funk
NYC girl he played "American Band" in Moscow in 2011 though. His keyboard player sang it. Brewer wrote it, of course. Great drummer but far not-so-great man,it seems.
Good thing the video editor knows the key moments in the song, otherwise we might've seen a tight shot of the guitar during the solo instead of the bar immediately following it 🤔.

I love Mark and Grand Funk, just not this version. Mark is only human. I'm not sure how old he is, but I see the high notes are a little bit of a challenge, (same with the wrong chord on the intro). Still love him and his music though. Also lo e the fact that he doesn't hide his Christianity!
Funny, it had only been 22 years since song release when they did this concert but it's been 27 years since they did this show. Tempus fugit (time flies).
It may not be fair to the drummer, the bass player, or any guitarist, but if any reincarnation of a band many years later doesn't include the original lead singer (assuming he can still pull it off) it ain't the same.

Can't believe that even though I saw them 2x in the early 70s, that I somehow missed this last hit of theirs! Still, I don't recall it ever playing on NY FM stations. Great power pop love song w. catchy lyrics & chorus. Mark really was a musical genius.
I can remember other acts and songs breaking that year, and being played in heavy rotation on WNEW, which was probably the #1 station in NYC, & outlying areas, but they were a VERY eclectic station, kinda favored "Prog Rock" & may have had a bit of a bias against GFRR & therefore Mark. But, I'm happy to have heard it, even if it's 40+ years later!!! I can listen to those guys endlessly. Mark wrote, sang, played guitar & keyboards and all at a relatively young age. He & GF just never got the full credit they deserved.
April 1975 and I was 11 when my father died. All of a sudden I could relate to songs like Wildfire that spoke of love and loss... but it was the happy innocence of songs like this that helped make life more bearable and doable.
When a guy can step up to the microphone and sing this song exactly like he sung it at the recording studio and sound every bit as good live, he’s the real deal. there aren’t many who can do that. Really love his voice
Tony Alfano, you're exactly right. I've always loved GFR. They were right over the border in Michigan from me. Sadly I never got to see them live, but had all their albums. Mark was always a pro! Take care.
Not bad on the guitar solo either.
I guess it is kinda off topic but do anyone know a good website to watch newly released series online?
@Jesus Mateo I use FlixZone. You can find it by googling :)
@Caiden Angel definitely, I've been using flixzone for months myself =)
Mark still has a fantastic voice! Hes a good guy with a great personality. GFR isn't GFR without Mark. He wrote and sang most all of their songs.
Still is one if my faves from the 70s. I'm 69 and still listening in 2023.😂❤
2024🎼🎵🎶❤
@@wojovortexrosita is right here with ya! 🌹
Me to great band.
I've watched this video about 9000 times. Thank you Mark for blessing us with the gift of your voice. I can't get enough.
Don't know why it took me this long to realize that Mark Farner's vocal on "Bad Time" from 1975 is as remarkable as Mickey Thomas singing the Elvin Bishop tune "Fooled Around and Fell in Love," released in 1976.
Most requested song of 1974 - Written about the demise of Mark’s first marriage. It’s always a good time to listen to Mark❤️❤️❤️
Great song and singer! Grand Funk belongs in the Rock HOF
How many vocalists so easily just eat up their songs live like that? And Grand Funk, despite their fame, never got all the credit they deserve.
An underrated great group of my time......the 70's. And Farner is a damn good lead vocalist.
Much more than "somewhat" underrated!
One word, WOW!! Mark has an incredible voice and there are very few people on this planet that can stand up on a stage, play guitar and sing as well has he can, an amazingly great performance.
Truth amazing voice
Love this song! Farner had such an awesome voice…
It's time to bury the hatchet, forgive each other and reunite before it's too late.
Don't just do it for your fans, do it for yourselves.
Forgiveness is freedom.
Finish your life without regrets....
They are reunited and touring
With Mark Farner?
@@tonyasdenti8661 Yes there doing a concert about 25 miles from me this month
68 now and have such great memories of Mark , Don and Mel , please you guys , one last time ? Haven't been to a concert since the 70 's , but if this was to happen Boy would that be truly magical.
So takes me back to 74 love Mark's voice still play this song daily 48yrs later💕
Grew up in the 70's and these guys and the Doobies were a big part of my life. Kinda miss those days.
Truly a great band. They sound as good live as they do on their records. Thanks for posting!
BEHOLD A GENIUS,MARK FARNER IS GRAND FUNK
You got it brother! Pure genius...his love for the music just pours out.
I love this song it takes me to a better time and place
Love this song. Fun and simple chords. I can play and sing it all day. Rock on
This song made the mid 70s great memories!
Saw them in concert! Pure awesomeness
MINDY, YOU ARE CORRECT!! I SAW THEM FIVE TIMES!!! JUST AWESOME!!! M.O'B
One of those voices I grew up with that always takes me back to some sweet times…..
Love it, stay good people love ya!

MARK IS AT THE VERY TOP FOR HIS VOCALS , GUITAR PLAYING AND ALL THE INSTRUMENTS HE PUTS HIS HANDS ON ! KEEP ROCKING MARK ! GOD BLESS YOU THROUGH JESUS CHRIST AMEN ! 😇 TINA ALIMO
I feel fortunate that I was young during the greatest times, Best music & Best cars!
🎸
Man, Mark is still right on key! Loved this band, still do!
@Joseph Babica best song of 1975
Amen to the music and the cars . My high school car was a 1967 chevelle ss396 4spd.
I am glad GF did this song,, one of my fav.s of theirs.... Had everyone of their albums ,,,TRUE ROCKERS
I'm 61 and STILL listen to the guys. Best best music from the 70's. Great stuff.
62 2 and these guys still make me move
I feel the same way at 64
I'm 63. Original Grand Funk Railroad has been my favourite band since I was 14.
I'm 60 and I remember this playing at the game room at our summer lake house. Brings back so many great memories of that era.
Another 61 going on 62 in 7 days. Man, what a great tune. Stuff like this and Bang a Gong or Baby Blue. They don’t call it CLASSIC ROCK for nothing.
I wish like Hell that Grand Funk could put their Bad Times with each other aside long enough to give Life Long Fans that one last Thank You Mega-Tour . We need closure to such a Great Band .
Agree
Bands with members who hate each other and then get back together for "one last Thank You Mega Tour" is the ultimate in cynical money grubbing. I wonder, in your scenario, who is thanking who?
Mark has said he’d like to do another tour as GFR, it’s the other two (that cheated him out of his cut) that are the hold outs. Zero respect for Don and Mel for the way they treated him, in the end it’s their loss, without Mark they are not even a good cover band. Mark Farner IS Grand Funk Railroad!!
Still love, Mark. What a great voice!
Hell i love him too!! lucky leisa!
ROCK ON PAMELA!!! M.O'B
ROCK ON CATHERINE!!! M.O'B
what a voice, what a song. we all have had a bad time to be in love
This song and Roxy Music Love is the Drug is my 70’s childhood music. Love it and Miss it terribly
I miss it so much too
Same here.
Classic Been listening to this song over 40 years now still love it👍
This song reminds me of when my girlfriend broke up with me in 1975. I can’t hear it without thinking of her. It’s been a long time ago now but still brings those feelings back every time I hear it. It’s a powerful song for me! Great group! Great song!
I remember it being played on American Bandstand! I watched that every Saturday without fail. Great times for music, man!
I feel the same way...I broke up with my best friend...she was awesome and I was too young to know anything...I miss her...that was in 1979 to 1980
Same here …
Sorry for your sorrow. I had the same deal with Boston "Don't Look Back" although the difference was that the song was my inspiration to get through the pain. I saw her decades after being happily married and thought that I dodged a bullet! Sometimes what seems to be a disaster is the best thing that could happen to you!
Wish they would get together for a final tour!!! This band is bad ass !!!!
Such a great tune from the 70s! ❤
Claro que puede seguir cantando con la potencia de antes! Solo es que Farner respire a tiempo antes de hacer la nota alta y él lo sabe😋
คิดถึงอาจารย์เรื่องฤทธิ์เพชรศิริมากครับ
¡Bellísima canción! Inseparable de recuerdos igualmente bellos... ¡Ah, qué tiempos aquellos!
immortal great timeless voice=not like todaze c rap
I love to see that GFRR still has so many followers, 2nd rock I've ever seen, blew my Fn mind at the Winter Land SF, I was 16 years, many great memories, thanks fellas.
Hermosa canción.......y el maestro sigue con el poder del rock. Y esos que critican el gallito que se escuchó........por favor!! eso demuestra envidia.
Love this song!
Kevin you are so right I 65 and still rocking in 2021the very best music I was lucky to grow up it the 70s fast cars hot women and plenty of good smoke
2:06, It is the best Guitar part in the video, the director does not show Mark Farner playing
Off the charts GENIUS - Hall of Fame...wake up!
yas
Hall of Fame...who fucking. cares? Are they in YOUR HOF ? Nothing else matters.
Groovy 70s AM radio music and still sounds good in the 21st century. 😎
I saw "closer to home" tour in NYC Madison Square Garden... Was awesome!
What a great voice! NO FARNER NO FUNK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yas
Sad to think of Grand Funk Railroad without his talent. How many albums of new songs has the band done without Mark = 0. Farner has made many albums with great songs since he was forced out.
So true! He wrote all the songs and was always a great frontman.
Desde los 10 años me gusta la música de Grand Funk.... dios bendiga a Mark su gran voz y lo conserve muchos años más.....!
Farner is Awesome! I'd like to meet him someday! Bill Garr.
Don’t you love how the camera crew focuses on the keyboard player while Mark is playing the lead guitar solo? Brilliant
Agree bro...it always amazes me where the find camera operators that don't have a clue what they need to be shooting. But probably if someone over headphones would have told him to get the solo he would have filmed the pick instead of his fingers...all you can pray for is that they were a student or a volunteer...
Cameraman here. It’s up to the director or TD technical director to switch the camera shots. This also could have been edited in post. I agree tho, they picked a “BadTime” to switch shots.
Yeah, but keyboardist is great though...

Saw Mark 5 days ago & he was fabulous. Met him & his wife Lesia.
NYC girl would love to meet this guy. he's sooo awesome and he's such an amazing singer. still has the pipes and never lost them. seems like a really nice guy especially to a fan :) far as I'm concerned he is grand funk.

Brewer wrote it, of course. Great drummer but far not-so-great man,it seems.
Met mark on his tour bus in the early 90's and he was he nicest guy!
Those of us that grew up with this music stop and think...WTF HAPPENED TO MUSIC TODAY?
IKR, some game called "Friday Night Funkin'" (I got out of the fandom, drama was getting too much) took over in music. Hopefully it dies down.
'ad dammit Mark , can we listen to GFR before we die . (class of '71)
IT AINT MARK HE WANTS TO
Don Brewer’s huge ego! C’mon man! Are you kidding the true die hard fans of this great band and Mark Farmer??
Maravillosa canción
Debes escuchar Los desde Los 70's , es poco raro, soy estadounidense y me gusto mucho joakin Sabina y Marco Antonio solis...
Saw GFR many years ago (70's) at the Dallas International Pop Festival. 70's was a great time for music!!
Bad Time hermosa canción y el señor Farner excelente y explosivo como su gran simpatía. Gracias por esas SUPER CANCIONES
@Joseph Babica .......no mames José Culo

Good thing the video editor knows the key moments in the song, otherwise we might've seen a tight shot of the guitar during the solo instead of the bar immediately following it 🤔.
Saw GF at Strawberry Fields festival near Toronto (about 1969). By far the best performance that weekend.
Outstanding " From Chicago. God bless "
I think he's remembering....probably still hurts
Mark Farmer was the Shit. Great song ! 👍

I still prefer the sound of the Messenger guitar.
He/Farners was reborn again around this performance time while Don Brewer joined up with Segers Silver Bullet Band !
Love him!!! The song too!!
We’re excited that he is Going to perform in Montgomery Al.
You are so right, even better than studip
True classic…..good memories
Mark siempre fue el 70% de la creatividad en Grand Funk
No hay palabras mas verdedero ...
I love Mark and Grand Funk, just not this version. Mark is only human. I'm not sure how old he is, but I see the high notes are a little bit of a challenge, (same with the wrong chord on the intro). Still love him and his music though. Also lo e the fact that he doesn't hide his Christianity!
Just found out this wasn't a Jayhawks original. One of my favorites for over 20 years- good to discover the original source!
Meant to say even better than studio
I was at the Greek in L.A. for this Concert beat show every
A primeira vez que ouvi esse som foi na Kiss FM de São Paulo. Foi amor ao primeiro acorde.🎸🎵❤️

I love Grand Funk so much but God damn Mark Farner is so cheesy what the fuck sup with the mullet and the strings around his arms?
Funny, it had only been 22 years since song release when they did this concert but it's been 27 years since they did this show. Tempus fugit (time flies).
MARK FARNER IS GRAND FUNK!
It may not be fair to the drummer, the bass player, or any guitarist, but if any reincarnation of a band many years later doesn't include the original lead singer (assuming he can still pull it off) it ain't the same.

"Bad Time"
I'm in love with the girl that I'm talking about
I'm in love with the girl I can't live without
I'm in love but I sure picked a bad time
To be in love
To be in love
Well, let her be somebody else's queen

There's too many others that know what I mean
And that's why I got to live without it
I'm in love with the girl I'm talking about

A bad time to be in love

From my friends and the people I don't want to see
The things they say I know just couldn't be true
At least not until I hear it from you
'Cause I still love the little girl I'm talking about
I'm in love with the girl I can't live without
I'm in love but I feel like I'm wearin' it out
I'm in love but I must have picked a bad time to be in love
A bad time to be in love
A bad time to be in love
A bad time to be in love
You know that I love the little girl I'm talking about
I'm in love with the girl I can't live without
I'm in love but it feels like I'm wearin' it out
I'm in love but I must have picked a bad time to be in love
A bad time to be in love
A bad time to be in love
A bad time to be in love
Killer! Rock and Soul at its finest. That voice! Ever heard the Jay Hawks cover?
Admirable la voz de Mark después de tantos años sigue cantando igual . Un típazo.
Can't believe that even though I saw them 2x in the early 70s, that I somehow missed this last hit of theirs! Still, I don't recall it ever playing on NY FM stations. Great power pop love song w. catchy lyrics & chorus. Mark really was a musical genius.
dave johnson, that is odd as Mark was presented with an award from BMI for this song being the most played song on the radio in 1975.
I can remember other acts and songs breaking that year, and being played in heavy rotation on WNEW, which was probably the #1 station in NYC, & outlying areas, but they were a VERY eclectic station, kinda favored "Prog Rock" & may have had a bit of a bias against GFRR & therefore Mark. But, I'm happy to have heard it, even if it's 40+ years later!!! I can listen to those guys endlessly. Mark wrote, sang, played guitar & keyboards and all at a relatively young age. He & GF just never got the full credit they deserved.
April 1975 and I was 11 when my father died. All of a sudden I could relate to songs like Wildfire that spoke of love and loss... but it was the happy innocence of songs like this that helped make life more bearable and doable.
great post God bless
Really not too bad for 22years later!
Great Song!
Grand funk railroad, the AMERICAN BAND

Don't guess I'll ever understand why Max Carl over Mark Farner.
Greatest band in the world and sounds actually like years ago
久しぶり聴きました！アップありがとう♪
Any remaster version of this show?
What show is this?? I think a live two-disc benefit CD called "Live in Bosnia" recorded in Auburn Hills. There is some promo footage of the show..
Their last hit I believe
Great song. Mark took care of his health and it shows
I thought they broke up long before 1997.
