    Love this band, no idea why I had never heard of them until the last week or so, Im 37 and this band has never been heard of in the UK. Im so grateful for UA-cam, or we would never have the chance to hear such great bands, songs and gems as these in our country.

      Find more songs, I can't believe UK didn't have this Canadian band. I'm in US and played all their songs and albums, but I was an outlier. Maybe Genesis had them banned in UK...

    it is criminal that Ian Crichton is not held in the same esteem as all the other great guitarists we know. His work with Saga is so consistently good over the lifespan of the band. He helps thicken up the key leads by playing what they play. His solo on this song is one of my favourites. uses the whole fretboard. Doesn't go a million notes a second ( even though he could) builds the solo lyrically , fits the mood of the song, then doubles the key lines going out. Never in any top ten polls, let alone magazine covers. Seen him multiple times and never fails to blow me way with his performance. The whole band has been so good for so long, they're kind of taken for granted.

      It's true. I think they have underestimated Crichton and have not given him the place he deserves, among the best guitarists, not only of the 80's, but of all time. He has very good technique, very good rhythm, speed and creativity; in addition to being one of the band's former leaders.

      Well said. I’m not a guitarist, but to me, Crichton’s playing has elements of Eddie Van Halen and Steve Howe of Yes. And I love this solo.

      From what I remember, back in the 80s they were somewhat popular in Canada, not so much in the U.S but had a huge following in West Germany. Not really sure why particularly, but the West Germans were crazy about them. Weird.

  • @rolfvansoelen8916
    @rolfvansoelen8916 10 років тому +57

    I am born in '58, in my early teenager age I got hooked to symphonic rock music. Saga dropped in there, i think around '76, and the band flabbergasted me for a long time.Initially, i loved the music mainly because of the guitarists input, his licks are maybe the best i ever heard, aside from David Gilmour in PF. But you know, Saga wouldn't be Saga without the rest of its performers. The singer, the bassist, the keyboardist, the drummer.... They were just one perfect combination....
    Saga was a band, once you discovered it, to keep it in your heart.

      Born 1965. Have to agree with your comment Rolf. Very well stated.
      Saga was my first real experience with this genre in 1981. After that it was Depeche Mode and Kraft Werk etc....but Saga was my first. I still have the Saga Live cassette for a keepsake. My first real girlfriend bought it for me.
      Sadly, i never saw them live.

    One of the best songs ever performed by Saga, this band brought something new with their vision, there is not even one band that sounds like Saga, i saw them live twice and met 4 members of the band in person, it was in 2006 at Rock of Ages Festival, Saga were the headliners of the second day, a few hours before the show they did a meet and greet and so i met them, the show was fantastic with fireworks in the air at the end of the show, it was a true celebration between the band and their fans, thanks for sharing.

    VH1 classic on cable T.V.
    (for the kids)
    played the video for "On the Loose",

    "Why have I, NEVER, heard this song, or seen this video before?!!!
    It's from 1983!!! Which is right in my "Wheel house"!!!
    I had MTV since 1986 (when they only played music videos.)

    Look at him running there's so far to go,
    He's very short of breath
    And he'd said don't be late
    Just don't be late
    With his parcel tucked tight under his arm
    He's sure he's passed half way
    And he'd said don't be late
    Just don't be late.
    DID YOU DO EVERYTHING YOU'RE TOLD
    THE INSTRUCTION YOU HAD WAS OLD
    I wasn't sure if I'd hear you
    I'm glad you're still allright
    IT'S ALL BEEN ARRANGED FOR TEN
    THE STREETS SHOULD BE CLEAR BY THEN
    I've done all that you told me
    I'm sure that they will wait
    THEIR TIMING WAS MADE QUITE CLEAR
    IF WE'RE LATE THEY WILL NOT APPEAR
    They don't know, they don't know
    They don't know how far we've had to go
    CAN YOU PICK UP THIS SLOWING PACE
    YOU'RE RUNNING A LOSING RACE
    No ! Soon we'll see them
    Then you'll know
    That I have not delayed, he said
    [Chorus]
    Hurry and don't be late
    You'd better hurry you might be late
    Just hurry and don't be late
    You'd better hurry you may be late
    IF WE'RE LATE I WILL NOT SURVIVE
    THEY WILL KEEP ME ALIVE
    It's not too far now
    And I can only wish you luck friend
    I'M SORRY I GO ALONE
    THIS METAL IS A COLD HOME
    I can see they're waiting
    A few more steps and you'll be there, he said
    [Chorus]
    Just hurry and don't be late
    You'd better hurry you may be late

    I was there!
    Michael Sadler was the lead singer, not that Rob Moratti -guy
    Surely Canada's gift to the music world

    What a great underrated band, I first seen or heard of them back in the good ol' days of MTV with their video off of the World's Apart album which I bought on cassette, I believe it was the Wind Him Up video. Did not know they had so many other albums. After seeing them on MTV for a short while, seemed like they disappeared, now I have to rediscover them again. Glad to know there is much more music from them out there!

      Terje, well said sir! Same here. Always popped in a Saga cassette driving home from college in the early 80's to visit my girlfriend (who is now my wife). And, now reliving it on UA-cam. Fantastic!

    this composition was Yngwie before Yngwie, reminds me of Bigfoot, etc...you know. Saga helped the MTV rock core, no doubt. thanks for being part of my youth Saga, I won't forget you.

    This album's full of Moog synthesizers. This 3rd LP by Saga was their first to have Jim Gilmour as the main keyboardist. The first keyboard you see as this video opens is the Yamaha CS80, which at 220 pounds makes it a real King Kong to both pick it up and keep it in tune at the same time.

    I saw this band in a bar in 1979 in Canada - they were great and they just got better. They deserve more recognition and fame than what they got - sad!

    Great band and song! So glad Sadler shaved the mustache later. He looks too much like the Eagles' Glenn Frey circa 1975.

    Amazing. This was when they still played each note on the keyboard instead of the later preference of simply changing the pitch in a programed sequence.
