  • I think my favorite thing about ‪@kansas‬ is that they recorded a lot of their hits right here in Louisiana. In the same studio where I'll be recording some of my content. That always made me feel a connection to them. Not sure if that's weird or not, but I'M NOT HERE TO IMPRESS YOU! Actually, I quite literally am, and I hope you dig our version!

    Lyrics:
    Early in the morning sunlight
    Soaring on the wings of dawn
    Here I'll live and die with my wings in the sky
    And I won't come down no more
    Higher than the birds I'm flying
    Crimson skies of ice and fire
    Borne on wings of steel, I have so much to feel
    And I won't come down no more
    Sail on, sail on
    I will rise each day to meet the dawn
    So high, so high
    I've climbed the mountains of the sky
    Without my wings
    You know, I'd surely die
    I found my freedom flying high
    I've climbed the mountains of the sky
    Floating on the clouds of amber
    Searching for the rainbow's end
    Earth so far below me, I'm here alone
    And I won't come down no more
    Sail on, sail on
    I will rise each day to meet the dawn
    So high, so high
    I've climbed the mountains of the sky
    Without my wings
    You know, I'd surely die
    I found my freedom flying high
    I've climbed the mountains of the sky

    Just wow! I don’t know where to start! First of all, I love this band so much, my 18 year old daughter is named Kansas! I only wish the majority of people knew more about Kansas than Dust and Carry on. Steve Walsh is in my opinion one of the all time greats vocally, and as a visual while performing live.. You nailed this vocal, and very few people can sing with the power and control of Steve Walsh!! I’m truly impressed!! Oh and your band killed it!!!! 🎸🎸

    Adam & band, you hit a new high, literally. My brother & I first got into Kansas at age 10! We ended up replaying the Album Masque so many times, that we had to replace the vinyl version 3 times!, Yes, 3 times. The sound quality is off the charts & then some!! Adam, you did Steve Walsh proud with those vocals!!!!

      @@AdamPearceMusic you got that right. And you are hitting most of them with your music. I have 7 siblings who introduced all kinds of music. At age 10 (mid 70's) my identical twin were heavily into Deep Purple, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Kansas , Rainbow & Jethro Tull. But we also had a softer side for Jim Croce, hall & Oates who were all from my area. Also liked Beatles, Fleetwood Mac.... Then around 1980 everything changed when I first heard Heaven & Hell & Neon Knights on the radio. I became a total metal head : Black Sabbath, Maiden, Priest, TNT, Triumph, Whitesnake, etc.. but also liked Journey & HUGE Southern Rock fan. First real concert was Blackfoot, 1981, opening band was young Def Leppard. 3 rows from stage!!

      Cornell, Heart, Cinderella (from home town), Scorpions since 1975, Hendrix, 10 Years After, Mellencamp, Winger (very underrated band, Very underrated), Graham Bonnet, the list goes on
