The Violin player in the video is Robby Steinhardt...he just passed on July 17, 2021 at age 71....RIP 🥺🥺.....BTW, you look amazing today Mel 😍👍
Yup.Thank you for remembering Robby..I lived back in suburban KC. Robby went to Lawrence high ..Rest of them went to Topeka West , except for Steve Walsh ,who was from St Joseph's , Mo. Amazing what they accomplished
Didn't know he had died RIP brother ,ur music will live on
@@donbracewell9752 - News to me as well. I saw Kansas at a casino in Connecticut back in 2003/04. But had been a fan since my mom bought the Point of Know Return album back in 1977 when it came out. Great year for music. Everyone had a hit record in 1977; Kansas, Styx, Queen, etc.
RIP, brother.
🥲
A truly masterpiece of a song 🎵, what a beautiful song, and the guitar and the violin are amazing!!!
The song is definitely a wake up call, we get so caught up in the world, so many things we think are so important... they don't matter at all.
Everything in the physical realm has an expiration date.
One of the most beautiful and thought-provoking rock songs of all time.
The song always takes me back remembering my father. He always liked to brag about being one of the first people to hear their live recording. It was in a small town called Ellinwood, Kansas. I remember him talking about the free beer they were giving away to go watch a band play. Later on in life we realized at that place in time they were recognized by a producer out of New York. My father said that man playing the violin was going to be someone great someday! Turns out they were all great.!
This is one of my favorite songs. Kansas, along with Styx and Foreigner are some of the big arena rock bands of the seventies. Check them out.🎸🎸🎸
Robbie was a classically trained violinist. Such a great & underrated band
RIP
RIP Robbie
Seriously ? Underrated ? Johnny Spears ? Obviously you were not from my generation. Kansas was one of the most popular groups in the 70's, Carry On Wayward Son sold over 4 million copies worldwide, that was just ONE SOLO hit release. You don't sell over 30 million albums from being underrated lmaooo.
@@oldschool72 I am probably from "that" generation and in my opinion, I don't think they truly ever got the credit they deserved.
They're still not in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
Which I think is mind boggling
@@MrCdoug1a a😊
Carry On Wayward Son was their breakout hit with Dust In The Wind following to become their first number one hit. A real fun prog-rock Kansas song is Song For America. No One’s Home is a sad tune, but wonderful. People Of The South Wind, Point of Know Return, Leaving By My Backdoor…so many great songs!
Well spoken Mel and Shawn. Loved your comments at the end, and your appreciation of this beautiful song
Yes we'll said a wake up call
Much love to you
It is truly hard to believe that this band is not yet in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. They make masterpieces. Please do Miracles out of Nowhere. That's a good one.
RIP Robby, the violin player.
Ive seen this lineup 3 times, Amazing shows. The band from my state, Topeka, Kansas. Great reaction, thanks guys. Youre one of the best.👍
A beautiful, deep and meaningful song. Enjoy each every day as if it’s your last. Cliche, I know. But I try to live this way, after all the things life has thrown at me.
Amen bro.
"Enjoy Every Sandwich" - Warren Zevon 💔
Such a beautiful melodic song. This a a band at the TOP of their game.
When this came out it gave me chills and watching along with you I got chills again.
If you can’t feel this song you’re lost - especially these days!
Thanks for your emotional reaction ♥️
Shawn and Mel. Did you ever think a song like this would bring you a level of thought and expression like this one did? I giggle cause as a kid hearing song like this much like you it made me come to my own conclusions. I was not told them. Feels like an awakening for the soul.
One beautiful song, one powerful message.
Another reason to love and support one another. ALL WE ARE IS DUST IN THE WIND! You, me, everybody! Let's love each other while we can. And let's love the earth as well. Thank you for this amazing song. I loved it then, I love it now. You are so satisfying to watch. You go deep, you understand the lyrics, and you express yourselves with love. Thanks again.
The way I feel listening to this with you right now is a glowing testimony to the message of the song!
This is nearly 50 years old and I remember hearing it on the radio when it first came out.....like it was yesterday...the blink of an eye....
I love you two.
✌️
Such a beautiful song! You guys are the best on U Tube!👍👏👏💙♥️
This song is hauntingly beautiful,
So even tho in this impermanent life we may feel insignificant as dust in the wind,
The mortal forms return to dust, but for those who believe our soul essence remains as living on & Beyond, there is no sadness!
Do make the most of the Living Years - graciously, sharing a smile & Goodwill to all we meet as we pass thru!
Love to All❣️
BTW - I forgot to mention how I appreciate all your Guy’s heartfelt reactions!
Both Y’all are Real Sweet & Tender Hearts❣️
Amen! Time goes by quickly and miss out on the simple things. Appreciate each other, love yourself and everyone because it can be changed in an instànce. I lost my sister to Covid ànd think I needed to release my pàin. Thank you and God bless ❤️
One of my many favorites!!!
Thank you! 🖤🖤🤘 This is such a stunning song
I was born January 1970, I listen to every genre of music. My daughter laughs at me because she’s like mom one day we’re in the car and you’re listening to hip-hop the next day we’re in the car and you’re listening to heavy-metal. I love all kinds of music! I’ve been listening to Kansas I since I was a kid and this is such an amazing band.
One of the prettiest, truest songs ever 🎶🎵
A lot of their songs are based off of religious references. Dust in the wind comes from the phrase used on ash Wednesday when the minister marks peoples foreheads with ashes and says "remember thou are dust and to dust you will return". It is a way of reminding someone of their mortality and that they need to live a good life.
"And all your money won't another minute buy"
Classic song! ♥
“Your my boy Blue!”
Kansas is a band that has it all!
I grew up listening to this song but never had such a perspective as when seeing this video. Thanks guys❤️🙏
This is one of the best reactions ever. You truly get it. Thank you.
All were are is dust in the wind - FACTS .....Love one another and enjoy every moment alive.
One of the GREATEST SONGS EVER written!
I realize from listening to these songs how many concerts I have seen! Kansas is great
Just a drop of water in an endless sea.
Just one human in an endless sea of humanity, all my brothers and sisters of whatever race, culture, language, or beliefs.
I know this may sound crazy, but every time I hear you two react to these songs a part of me wishes that I could just sit down and have a long discussion about the music and what it was like back in the day
I know right? I was thinking about that as well.
I was fortunate to see then perform before and the band Yes live back in the late 90s. Both bands put on a great show. More Kansas songs y'all should check out are "Carry On Wayward Son", "The Wall" and "People of the South Wind"
What an introspective and humbling song!
Greatest Ballad of all time Hands down
That's deep you guys I love it
I was in HS when Kansas came on the seen. Still reaches deep. Peace & Love.
One of the greatest songs ever written............
You guys are GREAT...i feel less alone watching you together...blessings always. Kerry Livgren is a Believer...yes, our bodies will become dust, but our souls live forever in Jesus...he rose!
Beautiful speech Mel.
Your reaction brought ME to tears.
Yes, much of the music of the 60's and 70's was quite prophetic, spiritual, and stemmed from the Jesus-Movement, a response to the horrible Vietnam War. It was also a response to the growing materialism of the 70's. Unfortunately we did not LISTEN, and the 80's became even MORE materialistic!
But we ARE FINDING our way again, the proof being, wonderful people like you discovering all this older yet still-relevant music.
God Bless you.
One of my favorite songs. Excellent choice to react 👏👏
Seen them 2 or 3times back in the day was only a teenager this was a awesome group and song
The mid/late 70s had a certain introspective, other-worldly magic swirling around... fantasy and sci-fi images beckoning to you that something more exists in your mind than in the normal daily world... whether from the art of Boris Vallejo or Frank Frazetta, to even the spaceship guitars on Boston album covers, to the soft, yet piercing call of Kansas's Dust in the Wind.
All your money won't another minute buy. Best line ever.
Only the body dies. You are more than body. You are an eternal spirit that lives on forever. That is the beauty of truth.
Your response is very honest & beautiful. Thank you!
One of the best concerts ever. This was our graduation song 1978. ❤️
Mel: I appreciate your perspective on life. Very wise words. Love you guys!
This band was so talented it was almost sinful. The song Dust In The Wind actually began when guitarist Kerry Livgren(blond headed guitarist) during a short break on the tour schedule began using the music to the song as a finger picking excercise sitting around home so his fingers wouldn't get too stiff when the band returned to the road. Livgren's wife heard him picking the music and told him it was beautiful and that he should make a song out of it. The rest as they say is history. Livgren wrote the song and it became Kansas's biggest selling single ever. To this day the song remains one of the biggest selling singles in rock history.
Mel your reaction caught me up in tears lady you speak truth
Whats crazy is this song was just a guitar warm up the guitarist did before playing, his wife asked him to make it a song that it was beautiful, so he played it for the band. And here we have this classic.
Loved that you really listened to the words! Such beautiful words. Loved your reaction.
I was born in 1962. I got to see all the legends come out as new. I got to smoke some good columbian gold, and had the best time I could ever imagine. I am lucky. I was born at just the right time to see all the great rock bands come out. I myself am a veteran guitarist inspired by all the greats before me. I have been picking for over 40 yrs. I can kick some butt make no mistake! Love your reaction but would recommend the next time you react to some 70`s rock, first smoke a fat one.
So beautiful
Love you guys! A beautiful reaction!
That's how we started! ☝🙏
Definitely try "Carry On Wayward Son" official audio. Same band, different experience 😉
Official video adds a lot more to the song than just audio.
@@mylesc99 Well no because technically the audio for the music video is worse quality and not remastered. The audio isn't as good but it shows the low budget music video they had, which imo could have been a lot better lol.
@@bickleyjonas6145 The music video shows the talent of the lead singer with different instruments and how much fun they were having. It's more enjoyable. That's why I prefer the music video.
@@mylesc99 I wonder if you know that's actually a live performance synced to the un-remastered studio track. That's why some parts don't line up, for example when the singer is playing the hand drums it's not even audible... It's a tradeoff. You either get a music video with worse audio quality, or no music video with better audio quality. (The one that has the most views)
@@bickleyjonas6145 It was very obvious and I realized it. I still like the video version better for the reasons I stated above.
❤❤❤
A truly Great song.💯
I met the guitarist (& songwriter) once, after he'd had some serious health problems. Dude with the long blond hair. Cool guy.
Beautiful reaction.❤️
Nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky-Life's a gift-Don't waste it!
I grew up on Leftoverture. Best album from my childhood. They are incredibly talented. I recommend listening to that whole album but calling out these:
The Wall
Cheyenne Anthem
Miracles Out of Nowhere
What's On My Mind
I have been listening to this song for 47 years and I have yet not to tear up each and every time !
Truest lyrics ever, "and all your money won't another minute buy".
"....and all your money won't another minute buy" Never a more true lyric.
Time is your most precious resource. Spend it wisely.
I've heard this song before, but thanks for your comments bc you lust opened my eyes!
The path intended for someone can be difficult to navigate once its found. Some spend their whole life searching because they lack an open mind. Embrace, compromise and be there
Yall nailed it. Kansas Song Dust in the wind Is asking humanity, where will you spend eternity on your last breath 🗣 🌬 on earth 🌎 in G🌎D's heaven 🌅or in 🔥💀🕳👹🔥Revelation 20:8 📖.This song is beautiful & very deep.
Love this song by Kansas. I had to go out and buy this CD because of this song. It's Beautiful even through it's sad!
Appreciate your thoughts. You know, seems most music is for excitement. Not much music drives or inspires us to reflect deeply on our lives. This does.
Awesome 👍
Next song from Kansas should be “Nobody’s Home”. Deep!
We are all sisters n brothers just realized people
They have actually heard what is called REAL MUSIC and REAL SINGING !
Thank you for not pausing this song, or talkin over it.
Music like this doesn't exist anymore
Back in the day when this was hot for some reason Kansas NEVER played in Nebraska. I lived there so a buddy and I had to go to
Red Rocks (Colorado/God's Cathedral). Very well worth the trip and a nice ride on a couple of Harleys with our girls.
I've seen them since then with the new band members in Reno (Harrah's outdoor venue) Still killin' it.
I'm hitting the trifecta 05/06/2022, unfortunately they cancelled so It's another Alice Cooper show but I'm not complaining.
I still have this LP./Album.
I have been around musicians my entire life!
My grandson Izaak would of been 20 yesterday, he passed away on Valentine's Day 2022. We had this song played at his celebration of life!! This is one of the most beautiful songs ever !! ❤️
✨❤️
This song is an adventure where you have to take a DEEP breath when it's over!
We will all be gone tomorrow. And who knows what the future brings. This song is so sad & profound. Everyone and everything will be dust in the wind. 😢
We're all one, all expressions of Divine Source. All the forms Source takes on are temporary (dust in the wind), but our true essence is eternal and One. There is just ONE Divine Mind, and that'd what we all are and thate what everything is manifested from. This human form is just one of endless temporary experiences in our eternal existence.
My first time watching you guys are great
Great song this guitar riff was just a finger exercise that Kerry did the blonde hair guitar player then with a push from his wife he wrote the words to Dust in the wind! Kerry and Steve Walsh the keyboard player wrote most Kansas songs! May I request Kansas Portrait ( He Knew)
Time is precious for us one and all. 49
This is the only song to be on AM/FM radio and cross genres from country to rock
You got that cap turned up to 11 🤘🤪
Great song.
Respect!
The blonde guy could be a model in shampoo commercial he was the one who wrote the song
I love you guys!
My dad used to tell me from a young life, I'm not gonna be around for ever on this earth. So if I tell you something. "LISTEN".
