I think I may have already told you but I worked for Boston from 1975-78. The harmony vocals you hear aren't sung by the rest of the band. It's all lead singer Brad Delp. I remember the Saturday in the studio when he did the overdubs. Brad was pure precision behind that 🎤 mic. He could throw down four-part harmonies like it was nothing. He and Foreigner's Lou Gramm are two of the vocalists that had near-perfect pitch. And Brad could bring it up an octave at a time like it was nothing.
Yes! Him and Lou are amazing!
This is awesome.
I'm from the North Shore area and remember seeing him perform in bars several times when some of my other musician friends who knew him took me to see him singing with other local bands before the first Boston album was released. He was definitely phenomenal even then, and nearly all the local musicians either knew or had heard of him. We had a lot of mutual friends.
Coincidentally both Brad & Lou had difficult times with the leaders of their bands. That would be Tom Scholz & Mick Jones.
@@nitro_001newman2 Mick Jones is just a jealous jerk!
It is a crime that Boston isn’t in the Rock N Roll Hall of fame ! They are one of the best rock bands out there and have so many timeless classics ! Keep those Boston reactions coming !! “Can’t ya say you believe in me” is another underrated hit off the same album…
Definitely a crime OMG
Rock and Roll hall of fame is a complete joke! They are too busy adding Country music stars to add bona fide rock legends like Boston or Iron Maiden. I have given up on them. I thought they were making progress when they stopped snubbing Judas Priest and Pat Benatar, but this years snubbing of Iron Maiden while letting in Willie Nelson was the final straw for me. Willie Nelson and Dolly Parton absolutely belong in the hall of fame in their genre of music, but that genre is country.
@@aaradia I wouldn,t be surprised if they induct Justin Beaver before Classic Rock Bands as Styx, Foreigner, REO Speedwagon, Boston, Iron Maiden and lots more Classic Rock bands.They are indeed a complete Joke. It,s hard to take them serious. Even C[Rappers] are inducted. 😂😂😛
@@ssRocker-nn3tp I'm from Ohio. THe RRHOF is about $$$$$, nothing more, nothing less. People that live there NEVER GO.
Fact
Brad Delp, one of the greatest voices in rock and roll!
The greatest voice in Rock in Roll!!!
Absolutely!!!
Cheers to THAT. Absolute favorite. Best scream singer I've heard. Best tone. Best & highest range. Pure TALENT.
And sorely missed
@@worcestershirecountysnorke7491 Very much so...
This song was in my wedding because my wife’s name is Amanda.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written
It really is
True!!
THIS is what a power ballad is SUPPOSED to sound like! Heartfelt, but hard hitting! Excellent choice for a reaction today, guys! Bravo!
What a voice! You are most definitely missed, Brad Delp! That voice!
Have you checked him out with his tribute band Beatlejuice? DAMN good stuff!
Brad Delp had such a beautiful voice. What a tragedy his death was. I was lucky enough to see Boston live before his death.
As was I twice. Amazing vocalist.
I still can’t understand why he killed himself!!! It just baffles me!! He apparently didn’t see him reuniting with the other members just once!
We named my daughter Amanda because my husband loved this song.
For my buddy and his wife, it was their second daughter.
Can't go wrong with Boston! Many great songs to explore.
💯 Many!
It's more a question of what ISN'T a good song.
It’s hard to believe that Amanda was their only #1 song Their music will always be my favorite
RIP Brad Delp. One of the finest vocalists in any genre of music.
Aw makes me think of one of my best friends, Amanda. She passed away last year from cancer. I miss her so much. This song is awesome and it really made me smile to hear it again. Thanks guys 💐🙏✌️
So very sorry for your loss.😞🙏🏼
Lost one of my best friend named Amanda also, still not sure what she passed from though....she just went to sleep and never woke up. Still miss her so much. Sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your losses. This song reminds me of dancing with my husband on NYE. Last song we danced to before divorce happened. 😢
@@kimberlinibambini1988 Thank you so much
@@jcbass2u I'm so sorry for your loss. That must be very hard, not knowing what happened. Wishing you peace 🙏
This was huge in my high school. In the yearbook, 2 songs were listed as 'Favorite Song' by the most students: Amanda and Comfortably Numb. Over the next few years, there were many babies named "Amanda"
This song was Boston's one and only #1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in their career. It happened during the late fall of 1986. The album, Third Stage, was at the time, Boston's first new album since their 1978 album, Don't Look Back, went all the way to hit the #1 spot on the Billboard 200 album chart. Jay and Amber, you two should also react to Boston's follow-up song to Amanda. It's called We're Ready.
Glad you've mentioned that one Eric, as, per my comments elsewhere here, I've been championing it too
Best TWO songs (by a mile) from "Third Stage" album are, "WE'RE READY" & "COOL THE ENGINES"
Huge amount of traction AND major-league shout-outs for Jay & Amber to do "COOL THE ENGINES"
I've seen at least 11-12 others on here, maybe as many as 15 and given most comments are less than 1hr old
🤘🤘
Rip Amanda my precious Beautiful sister. I miss you. You are LOVED.💜💜💜
This was the first song in the MTV era to reach #1 on the charts without a video.
From when I was 10 years old, and their first album dropped, in 1976, I have been in love with Boston. When this album came out in 1986, I was a junior in college, and starting dating my current wife. This was our song, even though her name wasn’t Amanda. We’ve been married for 35+years - 4 kids, and 5 grandkids later, I still get emotional when I listen to this song. Brings me back to a wonderful time. Thank you guys for bringing us old times back to a great time in music!
The combination of Tom Schultz's music and Brad Delp's vocals, it's just magical
Agreed 👍
Agreed, only way to describe/define Boston..... Scholz/Delp are Magical.
This song was the surprise hit of 1986. NOBODY was expecting this group to put out a 3rd album & that album's 1st single going all the way to #1!!
Boston was my ‘70’s and my ‘80’s. A group that defined a period of my life. Saw them in the last few years. Love them so much.
Amen, same here & I'm not even American - Although my nation HAS produced far more than it's fair share
We could retire on the strength of "The Beatles" & "Led Zeppelin" alone !! (Laughs !)
Incidentally Mitzie, I saw BOSTON (original line-up) in London, 1979 on the "Don't Look Back" tour
The sheer impact of their very first debut album hit me like a Freight train & I was thereafter hooked for life
Huge fan & major-league admiration for Tom Scholz here, one of THE finest musicians that I've ever seen, "LIVE"
@@hawnyfox3411 I so understand. I saw them at a “Toys for Tots” concert in 78 or 79. Sadly I cannot remember. The concert involved multiple bands with Boston as the headliner. It cost a toy.
Yes, the much anticipated album from Boston. It took close to a decade from their previous album. Then they released a ballad. Many Boston fans were disappointed, because they were expecting some more rockin' singles. This became their only #1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in November 1986.
BTW, I love the new studio... especially the random things that fall from time to time. Pretty clever! 😅
I remember a bunch of us listening to the radio in a college dorm room as the local radio station played this track for the first time. 🙂
I remember when this album came out, and nobody I knew was disappointed when this song came out. This song made them more popular.
Tool fans know all about what it's like to wait forever for the next album- and then have it blow their minds. They must have been Boston fans, lol.
Great info, thx for the informative comment
Jay & Amber, you'll love their "Rock and Roll Band", "Something About You" and "Let Me Take You Home Tonight"!!!
(then you'll have completed the greatest debut lp ever!)
edit- Jay, Brad Delp is the only vocalist. Overdubbing and other production magic allows him to harmonize with himself. Great rock vocalist!!
But, having said all that...they sounded just great on this tour. Saw them in Indianapolis. Can'tcha Say sounded so good with Brad singing live!
How come cool the engines never gets any love ? It’s one of the best
@@mattjohnson7725 The whole album works, really.
@@mattjohnson7725 Totally agree! That song rocks! The entire album does!
ANY SONG off the first album is a masterpiece. But "Rock and Roll Band" and especially "Something About You", absolutely. There was a live drummer on the first two albums (I forget his name...help me out) And let's not forget BARRY GOUDREAU, the other guitarist on this album. He was a real force on the local Boston (city) club scene and taught Tom Scholze a thing or two about guitar tones.
I was in high school when this Third album came out and I was lucky enough to see them live. Yes, they have a sound that can fill an arena.
They had their own unique unmistakable sound. Love Boston. Even their logo was cool!
The room sounds 100% better already. "Cool the Engines" is another great rocker from Boston.
This song was released in 1986 and it is a masterpiece of a power ballad such a beautiful song gives me goosebumps every time
Boston's first 3 LPs were nothing short of masterpieces. 🇺🇸
If you ever get your hands on the actual CD, the liner notes are incredible to read…. It tells all about how they recorded the album, the issues with the amplifiers, how the recording tape was sticking to the reels… a real insight into how it’s done!
Interesting - I have the CD - I will have to pull it out and read. Thanks!
I think I posted the entire liner notes in one of their early Boston reactions.
I still have the 33 vinyl.
Almost brings me to tears. Such a bittersweet song that takes me back to high school in Oklahoma. I remember my girlfriend, my friends, the great times , and how amazing life was growing up in the 80’s. I’d give anything to go back.
"Amanda" (1986) was Boston's only #1 Billboard Hot 100 hit. Between 1976 - 1994, Boston charted 10 singles on the Hot 100, 4 reached the Top 10 including "Amanda."
i was listening to Casey Kasem American top 40 one weekend a while back, and when Casey said this song was the number one i hit the ceiling. my first swear word lol.
I was a 10 year old rocking to Boston back in 1977. Thanx to some older friends down the block that hooked us up to the band. I'm glad to hear that youngins like yourself are finding and liking yesterday's music. Awesome!!!
That whole Third Stage album is great. The songs take you on a full journey in order.
WELL ROB SQUAD YOU CERTAINLY ACCOMPLISHED YOUR GOAL OF MAKING SOMEONE SMILE WITH THIS REACTION!! YOU GOT THIS OLD BOY GRINNING EAR-TO-EAR BECAUSE THIS SONG IS KIND OF SPECIAL TO ME!! I WAS ACTUALLY GOING OUT WITH A GIRL NAMED AMANDA WHEN THIS SONG WAS OUT ORIGINALLY!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
THANKS FOR BRINGING BACK SOME WONDERFUL MEMORIES!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sadly, anytime I meet an Amanda, I immediately start singing this in my head................I HOPE it's in my head only!
Can’t beat a bit of Boston. Best rock harmony band ever!!!
Another great ballad from Boston is "A Man I'll Never Be."
"Cool the engines" is another great song on this album.
💖💖💖
Must listen to "third stage separation" and "we're ready" from the same album. Great rocking tracks.
Thank you sooo much for reacting to Boston's later work. They were often "hated on" on their newer records because they were always unfairly compared to their stunning debut album. This song was released my freshman year at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, and will always have awesome nostalgia for me ... once again ... Thank you sooo much!
I was also a Freshman... in HIGH school. LOL!
That’s the beauty of music the nostalgia bringing you back to different time a different mindset
Ah, some people are never happy unless they are trying to cut someone else down. It's typically people who have never accomplished a damn thing in their life. It's nothing but jealousy. No doubt they don't even have the talent to create a lame ass jingle for some dumb ass commercial or anything like that.
The whole album is a classic and should be listened to all the way through. One of my all time favorite albums.
That whole album is a Masterpiece! Listen to We’re Ready/The Launch/Cool The Engines/My Destination all in one go as it was intended.
Imo Boston 3rd is one of most complete albums ever
Hollyann is another great ballad from Boston. I saw them in 1979 at Stephen F Austin State University in Nacogdoches, TX. Sammy Hagar opened for them. I skipped classes that day to get in line because I had floor seating, I was second in line and later that day when there were about 50 people lined up a limo drives by and stops and all the guys from Boston got out and talked to everyone in line, thanked us and shook our hands. It was great.
Boston is one of my favorites growing up.. FYI, the sound is getting better in your music room. You guys are doing a fabulous job.. ❤
Third Stage is a totally awesome album.
This song brings back memories of my high school sweetheart and how we swore we were going to be together forever...
Love that song. Other great songs of theirs are Peace of Mind, A Man I'll Never Be, Cool The Engines, Can'tcha Say(You Believe In Me), and Hollyann.
Hollyann..Yes
Yeah, I just wrote (further up)....
My fave tracks from "3rd Stage" are "COOL THE ENGINES" and "WE'RE READY" (Tom's Bell Chimes Guitar work
$6 ticket, 1978 worth 100x that. Their stage sound was damn near record quality
I saw the original 'line up' BOSTON in 1979 at London's Rainbow Theatre (rainbow different meaning back then
T'was just like listening to Tom's work in the studio - I'll never know HOW they pulled it off, "Live"
65% of the way thru gig, Tom done an Organ solo which started as Beethoven's Fifth (concerto)
It morphed into a blistering extended Gibson Les Paul Goldtop solo as he leapt from the keyboard bench !!
Then he exhibited blisteringly fast "finger tapping" like Steve Hackett - (It was before I ever saw E.V.H doing it)
Lastly, just to add, it WAS the London leg of their official "DON'T LOOK BACK" 1979 tour
Boston is legendary!!!! Great reaction.
A great number one song back in 1986! Loved it then, love it now!
Boston is my all time favorite band with Bad Company coming in second. Boston is the kind of music you turn out the lights plug in your head phones and turn it up!! Brad's voice!!
Honestly my first exposure to Boston was "Higher Power" because it was the first song on the album that my Aunt got me for Christmas one year.
Both of my sisters and I grew up in the late 70s through the 80s and we enjoy so much music. My younger sister named her first daughter Amanda after this song.
This long awaited album came out the same time I got my drivers license and first car. I played the heck out of this tape.
I recommend reacting to Holyann - the final track on this album. It’s paints a beautiful story and Brad Delp’s vocals are out of this world.
You can't listen to this song and NOT smile! I've loved this song since I was a little girl ❤
Boston has always had such a great sound, the harmonies and mixes were top-notch musicianship and engineering, and "Amanda" is probably the best example of that.
My favorite group from the 70's. Brad Delp had such a wonderful voice. ❤
I liked the group basically because they were from Boston! I don’t live to far from Boston! Their sound is so singsong which I love💕
My youngest daughter is absolutely named after this Boston song!
The song that our daughter was named after!
Oh my goodness! I've not heard this in years! Love it....✌❤🎶
Immediately transported back to a high school dance. Boston has so many great songs.
FINALLY!!!!! I've their AMANDA! I have their first three albums, and yes, I bought them when they first came out in the '70's!
Wow, I slow danced to this song SO MANY TIMES in high school! Glad you enjoyed it!
6:03 Such an interesting choice to put what could've been the song's bridge near the end instead of in the middle (usually before or after the guitar solo).
Boston is always awesome. Need to hear some more TOTO, 'I won't hold you back now'.
This was from their 3rd Album Third Stage 10 years after their first Album in 1976. Thank you for reacting to this one, and asl always Thank you for the Smiles
Love this song! And many of theirs- of course a top favorite of mine is “More than a feeling.” 🙂
Brad Delp is actually doing all the background vocals in the Boston songs. He did his own harmony behind his own lead vocals, which he also did.
Boston is always great!!! The chorus in this song is to die for!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. Lol from a tin can😂😂. You're getting there, it'll be fine!
My favorite Boston song.
This here is a POWER Ballad
1987 they sold out 9 nights at the Worcester Centrum in Worcester Ma. A homecoming of sorts and very very long awaited. I was lucky to be at opening night and it was incredible. Saw them 3 times after also. Absolutely tragic what happened to the band and Brad Delp.
1986 Amanda sung by the late great Brad Delp one of the best voices of the rock and roll era.
Awwwww - I'm so glad you found this one. It's been on my bucket list for you for a long time :). Great reaction!
Got the pleasure of seeing them live at the Cotton Bowl back when this album came out. They sounded just as good live as their albums!
Boston is a band that's fun for karaoke, because people know the words, and will sing along.
Saw them live in Tacoma WA for the tour for this album and they were so good in concert, I had a great time
When this came out in 86 I was in basic training. After basic I went to the PX and bought the cassette and a Walkman and wore that cassette out many times over
This is such a CHILL song! Boston has such a great harmony, both with their voices and their instruments, and they are one gelled unit. Love ya Boston and live ya Rob Squad!
It’s a highlight of my week watching Amber meet a new song. There is no denying her authenticity in absorbing each new song.
My son's mom's name is Amanda. She broke my heart 💔 But that was 24 years ago. I loved this song before I met her, and I continued to love it after we separated. I would never let how she treated me ruin my love for a song that is as great as this one!!
When Boston hit I was in my teens and it was like nothing ever heard before. ( HUGE )
This was actually Boston's only number 1 song on the Billboard Hot 100. It spent 2 weeks at the top in November of 1986. It was from their 3rd album, which was held up for years due to lawsuits and was much anticipated. "More Than A Feeling" was their previous highest charting song reaching number 4 on Christmas of 1976.
Boston is just so damn good
If you haven't, check out "A Man I'll Never Be" Brad outdoes himself on vocals, and Tom came up with one of the coolest, most epic riffs for the chorus. Tom even worked a freakin pipe organ into the arrangement- and he played it LIVE, too!
It's another example of Boston showing the rock world how to DO a power ballad, lol. The lyrics to that song are awesome, too.
Alright my babies.... Signature vocals, guitar riffs, and overall sound, make this band a league of their own ‼️🔥🔥🔥💯🤘🏼😎🤘🏼
Love this song!! 🎶
Besides liking the name, this song and Waylon Jennings song Amanda are the reason our daughter's name is Amanda ❤
I heard this song when it was first played on the classic rock station in Springfield MA... they put it on with no introduction and I knew that it was a new song by Boston within seconds...
So many memories! Thank you guys for all you do. This truly made me smile :)
Kind of a comeback album, 8 years after first two albums
Thanks for this one you two. I haven't heard this in forever and it brings back memories I had forgotten 😊
They don't actually all come in together vocally. It's just Brad Delp harmonizing with himself! It is always Brad. He is or was a amazing vocalist. Perfect for Tom Schultz writing.
Do next from them , these other's super hits : "I Need your love", "Livin' for you" , " Can'tcha say"( you believe in me)- "Hollyann"
Such a beautiful song and his voice…. Not ever replicated. Can’t do it. So beautiful his voice is. And the music matches it.
Whole different feel for Boston, and still love it.
I was 18 years old living in my hometown Guadalajara, Jalisco México when this song came into the air waves. I have always loved this song the lyrics are beautiful and the music really makes you feel it. Long Live Brad Delp and Boston!
Hey guys, thanks for doing one of my requests and from others! I used to sing bits of this song to a woman named Amanda at church some years back (she's married with children) and it was quite fun :D You can't go wrong with any Boston song...Bars! Patreon Movie Suggestion: The Devil's Own. Btw, this song would be awesome to karaoke.
Another amazing voice of all times!!!
I was in my mid 20s when this album came out. ‘To Be a Man” was my favorite.
This album has another song called "Cool the Engines " Check it also.
