Glad you found out about SSL looking forward to new releases. Hope your staying safe. Just subbed.

Nice video. One thing i wish you'd mentioned: - the bass line does a lot of work before each chorus begins. After meandering about in the verse it will drop down and strike a low, open string before going a little wild, and only then will in settle into the rhythmic chorus line. I think that those open strings pack a powerful punch.

that guitar was CRYING!………. 👍👍 eric clapton

UK and US largely resisted Modern Talking's charms in the 80s. Sad Brits and Americans respond so well to them now, 40 years on.

The song is a thing of beauty.

I want to go fishing with Benny and Björn, because they have the best hooks. 😎

Thank you for doing this. I just purchased tickets to see ELO IN October in the US, quickly followed by David Gilmour. This is absolutely incredible music.

I enjoyed this. This was done well before the show opened in London, and smartly released by ALW in an attempt create a buzz for the show. I have to admit that Steve Barton really nailed it with the duet in the London production. Beautiful song.

His name was Gary Booker. Great voice

He wrote it. Was 60 here and passed in 20 20.

*Please* react to "Kickapoo". You won't regret it.

Listen more pause less.

I remember it as a one hit wonder in the US, maybe they had other songs in other countries that did well.

Playing Phil Collins will always get a thumbs up from me!! Thats my man!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Great concert

There is a longer version. It has an extra verse in it and is much better. A must listen. All the members join in on the chorus.

Super Trouper is an almost mystical production.

They are wonderful. When I go out ( I am 72 + ) I have to pick from 15 top songs from this to Chris Stapleton when I go out. I am thankful foe hearing this again. Be well

The organ part is based on Air On A G String by JS Bach. On a side note(no pun intended) this was a concert recorded for Danish TV. Every instrument of the orchestra was close mic'ed and every singer had his/her own microphone. It was recorded over 100 tracks which of course were mixed down to a stereo pair.They recorded two concerts on successive days but only footage from the second one was used.

Dude awesome reaction thx fella

Wow, it's a shame you didn't get the longer version bc it's even better.

Has anyone ever told you you look like Walter White from Breaking Bad? (It's a compliment.)

You should go and see them live - but tickets are hard to get

Good vid! Straight forward and thorough. I'm currently shopping for an interface. Now that you have had the SSL for a bit, do you wish you would have gotten a different interface? If so, which one and why?

Your analysis of this song is brilliant compliments❤

Ive seen your reaction to this 6 or 7 times over the past year , i like when a informative person like yourself really is surprised how good a music piece is , so thanks . I really like Ennio Morricone my personal fav of mine is The Mission i love the music in that movie as much as you like this one .

This song is one Of the most important songs in Rock history!! It marked a move to artistic expression and a song Peter Frampton, among many, has called “The Perfect Song”… “a masterpiece”, as is this performance! Originally Released in 1967 and yes that is Gary Brooker (R.I.P. 2022) on the original release and this marvelous version!

I believe they said the lyrics reference the gay communities move from marijuana to crystal meth. Fabulous song.

"It's so beautiful when it's all together". Is is indeed. Too bad it was chopped up into so many little pieces. You should only need a couple of breaks for copyright purposes...

STOP STOPPING!

Last tour.. South America..2024.. but I can't see them not finishing off in Brum

I saw The Good the Bad and the Ugly many times back in the early 70s when I worked at a drive-in movie. They would put 3 films together on a western weekend theme and this one would be part of it.

If you enjoyed that piece, then I suggest you check out the main soundtrack from a movie called “The Mission” from the same composer, starring Jeremy Irons, and Robert DeNero. You will find that is a true masterpiece and will give you chills

Thanks for the insight 😊

Excellent review - what a stunning song it is. Her voice at the beginning sounds like she’s weeping. Very powerful stuff.

BBC are immaculate and have just recorded a 5th album I would suggest you give a listen to a young band from Mexico called The Warning. I think you will be surprised.

The building was designed to be a good live hall, as well as a good place to record music, so thats why the sound is so good. I have seen a couple of concerts live in that hall, and the sound is always really really good.

This is the studio version of the song. They are not playing but, it's still a fantastic song and a sad story about the band.

Just bought one PAH thx for the review.

Is there room for your legs with the center bar in the middle?

❤😊

an Italian composer, a Danish symphonic orchestra and a Japanese conductor, what did you expect ?

Not sure of much that Southend-on-Sea has contributed to humanity, but if it was only this song, it was enough!

What a great shame that you did not once mention Gary Brookers stunning vocal performance He wrote the song and he was the original performer of it and the single sold over 10 million copies world wide.

the wha wah girl has 45 colt 45,s for earrings

❤💯

Ahh the original and best version

The second verse was cut out of this one.

Great song, great group from the late 60s, maybe 1967. I was a 12 yr old kids. My cute girlfriend loved this song. Thank you to the family of Gary Brooker.
