Fantastic song. As a metal head growing up in the 80s, all of 70s music that seemed "acceptable" was the harder stuff like Sabbath, Zeppelin etc. So it took me some time to discover those more "sophisticated" 70s rock bands like Supertramp, Steely Dan etc. Glad I did eventually.

I sometimes think that returning to that childlike sense of wonder is the whole purpose of our adult life. It's Dorothy Gale going back home from Oz. It's Adam & Eve re-entering the Gates of Eden.

Supertramp earned their superstar status one song, one record, at a time. This song from from the very successful album BREAKFAST IN AMERICA was their crowning jewel of the decade. Other songs like RUDY, HIDE IN YOUR SHELL, TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME, and the excellent musical journey of CHILD OF VISION are worth a listen. Keep that inner child open and alive for as long as you can, Maddie. It keeps the smile on your face. And that makes us all happy. Enjoy

An earlier song on the same general topic is "School". It winds up being emotional in a different way. My other favorite is Fool's Overture, but that is probably not one that people would react to among the first of Supertramp's songs.

This song brings back so many memories. And something I didn't expect listening to it again is how much more it says to me now all these years later. When this first came out, we were all excited by their unusual musical mixes and style. Now the words mean more to me than ever. Thanks for your reaction.

Not a big Supertramp fan but I like this song. To me the song describes an almost child like innocence in the beginning and as we grow up how society and politics makes us into programmed robots and labels us as 'radicals," "liberal," etc. I could be wrong but that's how I see the song.

This song has always spoken to me on an emotional level. I'm naturally a friendly, optimistic person but years of dealing with people has made me cautious and suspicious of everything and everyone I encounter. It's easy to see the bad when you are trained to always be on the lookout for it. Worse yet is that they punish you socially if you don't continue faking being ok. I want to be ok. I want to see the good in people. I want to be able to trust someone without fearing getting hurt for petty reasons. But that's not the kind of world we live in and I hate knowing that.

Supertramp had a great run of four terrific LPs from 1974 to 1979 with Crime of the Century, Crisis? What Crisis?, Even in the Quietest Moments, and Breakfast in America. A curious blend of elements of prog and art rock and bluesy pop. More from the 1970s could include songs and albums by the bands Steely Dan and also 10cc. Plenty more, of course.
