    The Mandolin Was Priceless ...Awesome

    By far my favorite song! I showed this to my 13 year old and he freaking loved it. I keep telling him that Billy was by far the most underrated artist in the 80’s.

      Great parenting, teach him right. Billy is underappreciated for sure.

    Man transition for the lead from mandolin to electric guitar give me chills for this day. Thank you Billy for being so much part of my life all these years. However unlikely ,I'd enjoy meeting you again for the fourth time, just glad you're one of my heroes that is still alive.

    Something about Billy Squier's music just hits me in a familiar place. In some ways, when I hear Squier's music, I feel like I'm listening to the music in my heart.

      I can really relate to your comments about Billy's music. I've thought about what you wrote about it being the music in your heart...well said. That is exactly how it feels for me, too. ❤😎🎧

    Pure talent and he should have been granted another chance in the music industry, can't believe he was scorned over a video over a great song Rock Me Tonight. No one else sounds even close to him, still the songs of my youth and today!

    Completely underrated as a guitar player - some of the coolest riffs out of the 80s

  • @drumstudio1
    @drumstudio1 4 роки тому +11

    I always loved Billy Squiers great vocal-phrasing and taste for melodies since 1981. With every year gone and getting a bit wiser, I discovered that a somehow hidden star was his keyboardplayer. His taste for somehow uncommon yet marvelous keyboardsounds is outstanding. On every song of Billy Alan St. Jon`s keyboardwork is OUTSTANDING. I love it.

    Over and over--wanderin' through the years
    Life is a diamond--love is a trail of tears
    Sometimes I want you--sometimes I want to fly
    I know when I find you
    No one can stop me now--break you
    Don't let me go--Don't let me
    Watchin' the seasons--can't let you pass me by
    Turnin' the pages--why do we have to lie
    You are the reason--yours are the final eyes
    And when I hold you
    No one can touch me now--break-through
    Don't let me go--Don't let me
    Never wanna say goodbye--never wanna make you cry
    Never wanna see you go
    Now every time I close my eyes
    You're the one who makes me realize
    Don't let me go

    Billy you are the sound of my teenage years. I wore out my cassette player in my 78 rally sport Camaro and my cassettes listening to your great musicianship. I’m about to be 53, but you are timeless in my heart of memories

    I used to leave my stereo on all night when I was in Jr. High. Circa 1989-91. Everytime this song came on I would wake up and listen to it. No matter if it was 12am or 5am. It was amazing.

    Never saw this video before. This was during the time of the "Poodle Hair" period of rock. I bet the record company was begging for a pole dance somewhere but Billy refused. No wonder I never saw this video before. These type of videos are rare and are quickly dismissed but they are the most honest IMO.
