I've had the pleasure of meeting Brian so many times, especially in the 70s when I fanatically followed Queen around. All four were kind and charming with us; but Brian was exceptionally so. Lovely, lovely man. Miss those fun days - please build me a time machine! This song is absolutely and utterly beautiful too!
It's the perfect song for Brian May because his PhD thesis was about interplanetary dust! As of this writing, Dr. Brian May is 74 years old, and he's the kindest and most soft spoken person I have ever seen and heard among the vast sea of well-known celebrities. What an amazing person!
Could not agree more. A celebrated guitarist from one of the UK's (many) great rock bands, then just adds on a physics PhD, and uni chancellorship for good measure. That's versatile.
I kind of felt like this, for Brian, would be like playing a basic, boring bit.. but he respected the original melody and only put a bit of "lace" on it toward the end.. just love him so much..
Brian is a superlative guitarist, and Queen is one of the most versatile, prolific bands of all time with an incredible body of work. It's icing on the cake that Brian is such a genius (and obviously a hard worker), yet remains a humble gentleman.
Of course it makes sense to play this song because the song Another One Bites The Dust has the same word. The Queen song with Dust is Angel Dust, which is getting high on drugs especially the drug Angel Dust and there is even a backmasking subliminal message I wanna smoke marijuana, not about gangsters, guns, or a boxer being knocked out. The song Dust In The Wind also about getting high on drugs especially Angel Dust. So it makes sense for Brian May to play this song.
Beautiful arrangement of a magnificent song. May was a huge Kansas fan, and I encourage anyone who doesn't know much about Kansas to really dig into their discography. Their body of work is phenomenal and their musicianship is so underrated and undervalued by mainstream record critics, it is a crying shame, they never got the respect they deserved. And as someone who has seen them 18 times in concert, I can vouch for those as honest words. You will not be disappointed.
I discovered Kansas just over 4 decades ago when I was in my mid-teens. Hardly anyone had heard of them here in England (my school friends never really got them at all) and Kansas rarely toured here, so they are one of the few great rock bands that I never got to see play live. All of those 1970s Kansas albums have stood the test of time really well.
This song has a VERY SPECIAL meaning to me....I went on a trip to Italy in the 1970's and this was 1 of the songs that was played on the flight over.....I remember really listening to this and thinking how SOOOOOO VERY TRUE THE LYRICS ARE.....WHAT A BEAUTIFUL RENDITION....THANK YOU BRIAN AND KERRI❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹
Truly a wonderful collaboration between two real pro's, beautiful guitar work, and flawless vocals right pitch, right emphasis, right dynamics, tempo and the result is euphonious!
Wow. I'm a 73 year old guitar player who will do that tune at least once a week but I'll need another lifetime to play and sing it as well as those two. Beautiful!
BTW there is no greater compliment than a great guitarist or singer taking on your song with love and admiration for the song itself. May and this pretty lady show their love for the band Kansas and this wonderful song.
Brian may's guitar technique level is much higher then Jimmy's - all the notes a clear and performed perfectly in tempo. Also he do a classic violin vibratto - it's a sign of the professional guitarist. All the live performances by Jimmy Page are too dirty and not synced perfectly with the drums - I can't stand led zeppelin live, it's too much pain for my ears. However Page is a one of the greatest in terms of arrangement and composition.
Here's the crazy part about this whole thing. That guitar? Most people would see this and think it's a Martin due to the headstock shape & color. It's not. It's actually an old Tokai Humming Bird worth maybe $3-400 in anyone else's hands. That's Brian's #1 acoustic guitar and has been for a long time from what I understand.
Brian May and Queen love Kansas.....they toured with them in the late 70's and 80's and were blown away by their live stage craft......in Brian's words, "they sound just like their albums".
Fico muito feliz em ver/ouvir Brian May, de cabelos brancos... Quando ouvi o Queen pela primeira vez, tinha 12 anos de idade... Fiquei impressionado com aquelas músicas tão únicas para mim. Hoje tenho 55 anos. E Brian ainda na ativa. Que coisa maravilhosa!!! (Petrolina-PE, Brasil).
@@christopherhunter3415 that is correct. I saw Kansas at the Paramount in Seattle in the summer of 1974. Queen was the backup band. Killer Queen, Queen’s first hit song in the U.S., had just become popular. Queen was practically unknown at that time.
I've always loved this song and I first saw Kansas at a small concert at the Cotillion Ballroom in Wichita, Kansas and was hooked on their music since then. It was a very small intimate venue, about 200 people and we were asked to move up close around the band. One of the members at time played the Flute and I vividly remember his playing sent chills down my spine. They haven't disappointed me since. Thanks Brian.
"and Brian's solo was fantastic!!" --- Not to be nit picky but isn't a solo playing by yourself? At times, I could hardly hear the beautiful guitar music over the keyboard. What is a solo in a musical called? = In musical performance, a solo is a piece or a section of a piece that is played or sung by a single performer. This said, I get your gist.
Crush Everything ---- Did you not read the actual definition of what a solo is? I included it in my post, I didn't make it up. What do you think "solo" is? The very word means one, by yourself. Just because people like you have bastardized the word away from its original and true meaning doesn't make you right.
Crush Everything --- also, if you're going to say that this was a solo because the dude played guitar with no other guitars included, then he also played "solo" throughout the entire song, as did the key board player, and the woman sang solo throughout as well. If your saying it was a solo because the woman stopped singing for a bit, then at least both the guitarist and keyboard player were both playing their "solos" together. Perhaps to you a solo is when a player stops playing rhythm. You should listen to more music, this happens all the time but it's still only a true "solo" when they do this alone. All this said, why did you start the insults? If you knew what you were talking about and could actually explain and defend your position, I would have welcomed that and perhaps learned something new myself. Instead you resorted to the tired old stance of crying "you're wrong and you're too stupid to know why" without any intellect or reasoning to back up your position.

Brian's playing a that age prooves it's not the money. He don't need more monay at all. He so happy playing and singing and taking us the gift of music!!!
@@lotte5173 Her career with Bri kicked off once he noticed Kerry watching a musical and then they worked on 'WWRY' musical, singles, 'No-One But You' given to her by Bri, 'Anthems' studio album, 'Anthems' live gigs (playing the entire album) and many more followed. As you see the co-op lasts for over 20 years now. Cheers.
Brian May is such a true gentlemen .. what a a joy to hear him play this legendary tune with two excellent fellow musicians. A great singer, by the way. And how does Brian May manage to always sound like himself through an array of vox amps, even when playing acoustic? Mysterious... ;-)
The way he almost understates the guitar is wonderful. When i try to play this I find it is typical to really emphasize the beat. That is also the kindest comparison I can make of myself to a guitar god. Brian May is superb.
My favorite song to play on the guitar no doubt. I know exactly what you mean with emphasizing the beat, but it sounds better just emphasizing the chord changes tbh
I am pleased to listen this song, Sir Brian May, it brings me to the truth of us, we are only dust in universe. Some particles more talent than others, but all so important. Without all of us there could`t be earth as we know now.
A little story about this song. Kerry Livgren use to play this progression to practice his finger picking. One day he was practicing this at home, and his wife said it was pretty and that he should make a song out of it. The rest is history!
@@gospeltruthtv Wow! Would love to meet any member of Kansas, past or present! My two favourite bands, Queen then Kansas! I’m a major collector of Kansas’ music, and probably one of the biggest ‘Wheathead’ in the UK!
@@martinkulkarni3569 That’s cool! When Kansas hit it big with Leftoverture & Point, they did a UK tour as a headlining act. When they played Birmingham, the members of Queen booked a pub & threw them a private party. Funny story from the Kansas/Queen tour…Queen liked Kansas so much, they let them do an encore, something that was uncommon for an opening act. Of course, Kansas knew the set Queen was playing. Just for fun, they worked up Queen’s opening song & performed it as an encore. They did have quite a sense of humor!
@@gospeltruthtv - A lot of people don’t realize how silly the guys in Kansas were (and in Rich’s case, still is)! Their music was deep and serious, but they loved to mess around, pull pranks and have fun! I love those guys!!
@@crusheverything4449 So true! I’ve only been around Rich a few times in the past. If he gave up guitar, he has a future in stand up comedy! Hopefully it doesn’t come to that…🤣
Remember exactly when and were I was when that song came out over the radio, riding in my automobile in 1978. Though true, we are made from the dust of the Earth, we are more than dust, we are also spirit, soul, which is the part that lives on, after the dust (so to speak) has settled back to Earth!
Wow ,first reaction is wow. Apart from the fact that mister May is a learned gentleman this was a seriously beautiful rendition of the song..Thanks to the person who put this on the internet.
I heard Dust in the Wind by Kansas, written by Kerry Livgren when it came out in 1978. It touched my soul then & does every time I hear it still. It’s on my funeral playlist. I love the way Brian plays the violin part with guitar. Beautiful..❤
Totally love this song.. Played it at my wedding 42 years ago. Still my favorite song as I turn 70 this year
are you still married with her?
@@KX-vi1tn Yes, hoping for 42 more years. Just had our first grandkids this year
The man is a complete and total virtuoso musician. Thank you, Mr. May, for decades of musical pleasure! Thank you a thousand times!
he is also one of the best astrophysicist on the planet..
I've had the pleasure of meeting Brian so many times, especially in the 70s when I fanatically followed Queen around. All four were kind and charming with us; but Brian was exceptionally so. Lovely, lovely man. Miss those fun days - please build me a time machine!
This song is absolutely and utterly beautiful too!
And have you met Fredie?
@@probro1608 Yes - again many times. The whole band are very kind, but you'd see less of Freddie and John around than the other two. Great times.
Anything that Brian May touches musically turns to gold

They got a lot of fame and fortune, as well as respect.
I second this. Too many people sleep on Kansas. No reason to. Just check them out.
Never saw them live, but Kansas is special.

Hardly anyone had heard of them here in England (my school friends never really got them at all) and Kansas rarely toured here, so they are one of the few great rock bands that I never got to see play live.

Outstanding cover of Kansas’s Dust In The Wind. Mr. May, and your lady vocalist knocked this on out of the park. Thank youforsharing
Kerry Ellis has a beautiful voice and performs this song superbly. Complemented exquisitely by Brian's tasteful guitar work, love it!
Kerry Ellis
Interestingly enough, she’s singing a song written by Kerry Livgren…🤔
Thank you for letting us all know who “the Singer” is. She hasn’t been credited. Kerry Ellis - beautiful!
Thanks for the name i was looking who song
too many comments here and you are the first one to ever mention the name of the singer. thanks

Superb vocalist; Dr. May a fantastic rendition of a great Kansas hit song. Good job.
My dear late husband used to listen to this song often…❤️ so many memories flooding back. Beautiful voice and super chords played Brian May.
One of the best songs ever written.
Agree
Certainly, up there in the list..
Kansas were poets.
A rather hackneyed saying. There are thousands of "best songs ever written", and the very best is the one you are just listening to.
I can't agree. A very depressing song. Why bother doing anything good with your life if you are nothing?
A most beautiful reinditon of the Kansas classic
This was one of the first songs I learned to play on guitar when I was 14 back in 1978
same year for me, I was 12! Great finger patterns, easy chords! Beautiful music. (Unless of course I did it badly....)
Beutifully done. Hard to believe this song is over 40 years old. As relevant today as ever.
Very nicely done!! Blessings from the great state of Kansas!! Central USA. We have always been proud of the band Kansas.
Hello there, this song is in my playlist FOR DECADES. First on cassette, then on cd and now ON my iPhone. What will be next?
As you should be
✊
As you should be. Those guys are genius songwriters and musicians.
👍🏿
Truly a wonderful collaboration between two real pro's, beautiful guitar work, and flawless vocals right pitch, right emphasis, right dynamics, tempo and the result is euphonious!

I just saw Kansas this year... 2 original members and absolutely fantastic! they would love this incredible cover!
It's my understanding that the two bands were pretty good friends.
@@mickpalmer9922as far as I'm aware, they toured together back in the days
I was about 20 years old when I first heard this song. Since than, I love Kansas... Thanks to Brian for performing this song so well
I'm still playing.. This and dancebarefoot of Patty ..
@Maurice Halimasch same bro
Bravo! I was just listening to Kansas the other day. Seen them a couple times in the 70's!
Greetings from Brazil! One of the most beautiful existing songs! What a memorable moment this show! if I was there I certainly would cry!
Wow. I'm a 73 year old guitar player who will do that tune at least once a week but I'll need another lifetime to play and sing it as well as those two. Beautiful!
Me too, bill. Play it a lot, with other fine tunes. Only 72, though. I'm just a kid.
Kansas had so many other amazing albums and songs, so underrated today
Mostly due to Kerry Livgren.
No they were not
My favorite song is Magnum Opus
Beautiful guitar work by a very sincere person. Great song by Kansas.
BTW there is no greater compliment than a great guitarist or singer taking on your song with love and admiration for the song itself. May and this pretty lady show their love for the band Kansas and this wonderful song.
Brian May is such a wonderful person. Great singing!
Many, many years ago I saw Queen, with Kansas as the first act, when they toured Canada. Great show, one I’ll never forget.
Wow, you saw Freddie. I never had a chance.
Love this. Brian's guitar work is as tender as Jimmy's with "Stairway to Heaven." Thank you, universe, for our rock gods.
Thank you God

Kansas was one of Brian's favorite bands. They opened for Queen in the early days and Brian thought they were amazing.
Didn't know that, but glad to hear it. I've always been a huge Queen fan and a Kansas fan, too. Have seen both in concert.
Actually, in the earliest days, it was the other way 'round - Queen opened for Kansas!
@@christopherhunter3415 No, Kansas opened for Queen in 1975. Kansas stood in for Queen in 1974 when Queen was supposed to open for Mott the Hoople.
At 4:22 we get a bit of Greg Lake’s “C’est la vie”. Nice!
@@christopherhunter3415 that is correct. I saw Kansas at the Paramount in Seattle in the summer of 1974. Queen was the backup band. Killer Queen, Queen’s first hit song in the U.S., had just become popular. Queen was practically unknown at that time.
Brian May (Queen) is unbelievable such a talented person and extremely intelligent, he seems sweet. Great singing and keyboard.

Thank you for her beautiful singing. Brian's guitar sounds great, too.
Incredible voice and great giutarist
I taught myself on guitar how to pick this song back in 70s. I usually just strummed. Many wonderful memories songing this with college friends.
Pra mim, Brian May é o melhor guitarrista do mundo. 😍😍😍
