“Give A Little Bit,” the opening track on Supertramp’s 1977 album, Even In The Quietest Moments….is a song that appeals to our better angels, with an idealistic message of unity and generosity. Written by Roger Hodgson when he was still a teenager, the song went on to become one of many worldwide hits for the band, has been used to represent charities ranging from UNICEF to The Red Cross, and even ended up being a princess’s favorite song. Take a closer look at this singalong song and its unifying beauty in this episode of the Behind The Song podcast.

So grateful to be at two shows of theirs at the Hampton Coliseum. '83 and '85. Unforgettable. Supertramp had such a clean, crisp sound and the Mothership never disappoints.

The absolute best voice in radio. I guess it’s my own opinion, but damn is she good !

I saw Supertramp a couple of times back in the day. They were as good live as they were on their recordings. They were part of my musical soundtrack in my teens and twenties. Cheers! I've a request for a song breakdown. Wishbone Ash's "Blowin Free". Thanks

Greg Lake wrote 'Lucky Man' at 12yrs old, Steven Tyler wrote 'Dream On' at 14yrs old, Taupin and Hodgson 19. Too many electronic distractions among other things are preventing young would-be musicians from coming up with quality lyrics to write songs that can be remembered 40 - 50yrs later.

There’s truth in that, I think!
