      I'd be honored if some 80s fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal YT performances of SISTER CHRISTIAN by Night Ranger, IS THIS LOVE by Whitesnake, and RADIO GA-GA by Queen in tribute to the age of legendary power ballads. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Stay safe and keep on rocking in the '020s.

This song has a magical power that can transform me to being 12 years old.. that time when everything is changing.. no longer a child but not an adult. Boston’s album was the soundtrack of my life at that time.. my sister and I listened to it EVERY DAY.. many times a day... I loved it then and I love it now.. it will never be out of date or not relevant to me.

      Growing up in the New England area, I knew Brad and Tom (Brad lived just a few towns over from me). I still can't stop shedding a tear when I hear this album...A lot of folks don't know that Tom played every instrument on this album (except the drums). Extremely talented. Brad Delp has a range in his voice that very few guys have. Powerful, pure voice, I was devastated when I heard from a friend he was gone.

Even back then we felt the same about these songs as we all do now. Listening now, these songs bring back memories forgotten both good and bad, friends that are no longer here...but I wouldn't change it for the world. These songs shaped who we are today, and those of you in your 50s, you know exactly what I mean. If we could go back I know you would drop what your doing and get on that bus. Appreciate your memories and never stop listening to this stuff... its the soundtrack to our lives. Cheers everyone.

    Summer 1976. I was 18 years old when I, with my green WV Beetle and my friends heard this immortal song for the first time. It was a fantastic night. I drove on the highway most of the night, then we slept in sleeping bags next to the Beetle. The sunrise. Then the sea. I'm 65 now. It was a moment to go from being a teenager to finding myself... old.
    Every now and then I listen to this song together with the others that were the soundtrack to my youth and the memories become crowded, school, girls, cigarettes, liquor, parties. The future. Now remain a thread of nostalgia.

    It's important to listen to this song cranked on full volume through a not overly bass heavy/boomy speaker system (yeah, fuck the neighbours) - you really get a proper feel for the tune and hear all the brilliant nuances of Tom Scholz's playing and mastery production

    Brad Delp's voice in this song is just perfect. The way he climbs with his voice to the high notes. What makes it so special is no matter how high his voice gets the intensity stays the same. The power behind each note is just as much as the one before. This song is a piece of art. There just is no better way to describe this. It's musical art at its best! When you look at Brad's face as he sings you can see he is genuinely having a good time with it. He has mentioned in interviews that he always dredded having to sing it live because it was musically very difficult for him to do, hitting those high notes and then carry on with a full show. Or vice versa, be singing the whole night and then try to hit those notes near the latter part of a show, but when they hired the female in the band she picked up the high part for him. He said he would just point if he needed the boost and she would provide it. But he said he always sang it because he knew it was a fan favorite. Some days it was just better than others. I get that. No one has a studio voice 24/7/365. At least not anyone with Brad's voice. RIP - Brad, you were definitely something special.

    I learned to play this song on drums when I was just a kid. I’m 65 now and still playing it. Teenagers don’t grow up, they just become young souls in an old body. That kid is still in there.
