    We absolutely appreciated it in those times, as masterful, creative and deep. I think we're all surprised by the fact that music (and society in general) doesn't have the same depth as before (in general). In other words, maybe we took it for granted that music would continue to expand. But I think we all very much appreciate that younger generations discover and appreciate this older music. It gives me hope.

      Agreed. I feel blessed to have grown up in the 70s and as I see younger people appreciating all the genius music of that era I hope they start demanding better music from artists. I feel like the majority of the music out there these days is pretty insipid.

      I respectfully disagree! Music like this was normal! And there was so, so, so much of it! 70's, Queen, Led, Stevie Wonder, 80's Prince, MJ, Madonna! We EXPECTED them to blow our minds and they did, every time! I didn't appreciate it fully and long for it until it was gone!

    We had no internet in the 70s. We had to go to the record store and flip through all the records looking for something new or something old. And we bought stuff having no clue if its good or not. The excitement of finding something new by someone you like and going home to listen to it. That doesnt exist today.

    We absolutely appreciated our music back then! We went to 4 to 5 concerts a month, waited 😟 anxiously for each new release to come out so we could pour over the liner notes, cover art work and the lyrics as the new đŸŽ¶ music played over our stereos! It was a whole life experience that can't be explained with mere words.... What has really surprised and delighted me is this sudden surge of your generation discovering all of our music! It's like you have un-buried a lost treasure and brought it into the light for others to discover as well. Thank you, I am so very grateful you are here! ✌ 💕 đŸŽ¶

    I agree with Robyn...I'm 66 years old, and grew up with all of this great talent. From singer songwriters to rock...I think we did take it for granted...we thought it would never end. Sadly today's "stars" are not artists, poets, musicians...not even good vocalists...they rely on electronics, lights shows, and skimpycostumed dance routines and call it a concert. I may get some grief for that last part, but I just don't see true talent anymore. So glad you guys are exploring and appreciating what I now know I was privileged to have in my young life! Rock on, guys! Love watching you!

    Dudes, I promise you that we appreciated these boys and their totally unique sound, yes, just as it was happening 45+ years ago. KANSAS fans packed auditoriums all over the world for their concerts, and every new album was anticipated with an eager fervor that rivaled that of any 5-year-old wishing for Christmas. It took years for them to be appreciated on a wider scale when the radio hits started coming but we true fans know that they produced three albums of amazing music before they ever hit the big time. It's therefore terribly gratifying to me to watch this latest generation of music fans discover the magic of KANSAS that us old timers have been jamming to for damn nearly half a century.
    The entire Leftoverture album is as fine an album as has ever been produced by American rockers, in my opinion. Magnum Opus from that album will blow your minds, guaranteed.

    Although we did appreciate it, because it was coming from everywhere, I think most of us just assumed that it would always be that way and would continue to evolve in that direction. When I was a young boy my neighbor was an audiophile, so I got to hear much of the music of the late 60's and early 70's on some top of the line hi-fi equipment. It also inspired me, when I got a little older, to save my own money from working odd jobs to buy my own quality stereo equipment. My house was the place all my friends came to to hang out and listen to music. I was the one who got to turn on many of my friends to some of the greatest music of all time. It is why I enjoy watching reaction videos so much. It takes me back to my room and seeing that look on people's faces when they hear greatness for the first time. Kansas is a band who is often overlooked in spite of their musical and lyrical genius.

    It's the music of the sixties and seventies that moved a whole generation. there was a revolution of experimentation and change and protesting the Vietnam War and fighting for Civil Rights and the songs and albums that came out moved us and informed us. We were alive ! We absolutely knew how great the music was: we went to concerts and rocked out. getting high, bought the records as soon as they came out, got big stereo systems and quality headphones Great groups had amazing albums where every song was a hit: you learned that as you played it. You see how energized we were at concerts: how into the music. You guys are getting it and it's great to watch you. Realize that this great music began in the late sixties and carried over into the mid-seventies. Think sixties, not just seventies.

    The 60’s were great with the folk, protest songs & the British Invasion....but imo, the 70’s was THE BEST era musically. It was the era of anthem rock, guitar gods, spectacular Supergroups like Boston, Journey, Kansas, KISS, Queen, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Fleetwood Mac, Heart, etc & standout stars like Peter Frampton, Bob Seger & Boz Scaggs...there isn’t room to list (nor can I possibly remember) every artist I grew up with, I just know that in the years since, the music hasn’t moved me quite the same.

    An amazing band very different sound unlike any other this song began as a guitar exercise for Kerry livgren who was the main songwriter and lead guitar player He was sitting in his living Room and he use to do this with his guitar for his fingers exercises that's the beginning of the song.This band is very spiritual this was the 1st of many songs they wrote which was basically a story that kerry and what he was going through at that time trying to find his way and search for the answers it seemed like what he wanted and then when he got it wasn't quite sure as you find out in some other music try the wall I think you'll be really taken by this song great reaction guys my class song in 1977 in the state of Maine was carry on our way would Son Good reaction guys keep spreading the music to the people less blessed.

    I love the fact that young people like you are investigating and appreciating music from the '60s-'70s-80's and early 90's. That was a rich era for amazing music. Today's music is crap. And filled with hate. That is not supposed to be what it is about. Carry On My Wayward Sons! And thank you!~

    We absolutely appreciated it!! Why do you think we always say today's music doesn't compare to the music from the past.

    This is about humility. In the context of eternity, we and our material possessions are as insignificant as dust. More "Kansas" requests: "Song for America", "The Wall", "Child of Innocence", and "Icarus (Borne On Wings of Steel)".

    Your right! We didn't appreciate the music as much in the years listening to it! So many great groups and different kinds of really good music. Maybe we assumed it would last!đŸ€·â€â™€ïžâ™„ïžđŸ˜Ș

    I always knew it was a beautiful and well written song but I understood it when my mom passed away a year ago. You understand many things and songs when you lose someone.

    This song started as a picking exercise by Kerry Livgren, a Kansas guitar player and main song writer, but his wife Vicky suggested he make it a song! Boy she was right because this song became a major hit for Kansas and a staple at every Kansas concert! The first 5 Kansas albums: Kansas, Song For America, Masque, Leftoverture, and Point Of Know Return are all masterpieces and should be reacted to! The songs Song For America, Icarus Born On Wings Of Steel, The Wall, Miracles Out Of Nowhere, Point Of Know Return, Portait/He Knew, People Of The Southwind, Hold On, Play The Game Tonight, Windows, Crossfire, Fight Fire With Fire, Absence Of Presence, and Throwing Mountains are all masterpieces to be checked out! Kansas is easily my favorite band from 1974 to the present!

    I was in primary school and later high school in the 1970s ... and we definitely appreciated the good music. But to us, it was simply the music you heard on the radio. That's all we knew. :-) And now we sound like old farts in our rocking chairs, complaining how music back in our day was so much better than music today ... much like how our parents complained how music in the 1970s was too loud and didn't hold a candle to the music when they grew up in the 1940s-1950s. :-) ... Two of Kansas's other big radio hits were "Carry On Wayard Son" and "Point of Know Return," both of which have a faster tempo.

    So, in the 70s, yes we did appreciate it. I did anyway. But, it's wonderful, just wonderful to see you guys appreciate it now too. The music, the message, the beauty and depth leaves you just awestruck and thoughtful. I'm glad you guys have the ear to hear the message an meaning in it. For me, it was, and is, a big lesson in humility.

    They definitely did not try and hide behind much 'Metaphor' did they?
    Profoundly simplistic, yet convey an ultimate 'Truth' within ALL of us.
    Just ST8 to the ultimate reality of ALL our lives..
    We are All but Dust In The Wind'..
    I'm getting 'Up There' in age, mid-upper 50s and i can remember when this song 1st 'Hit Me' i was at the age where i was just starting to smoke weed etc. This song always impacted me and i shortly thereafter stopped smokin etc.
    And this song had a part in my reasoning to do so...
    Loved Kansas ever since, they shall always have a piece in my heart..
    God Bless..

    Listening to this music makes me sad for what was. But on a lighter note, my older brother's high school graduating class chose this song as their class song. The school administrators were furious, but the students stood their ground and kept it. They actually played it for their graduation ceremony.

    I lived thru the 70s you guys think we didn't appreciate the music. I grew up in north east Ohio 60 miles from Cleveland, during the summer months huge concerts would be held at Cleveland stadium 🏟 called the World Series of Rock Pink Floyd was a main and only headliner during one of these shows but also many other bands were at these shows one in particular Kansas and the Rolling Stones together what a show, but back to appreciating the music all these shows would sell out over 80,000 fans these types of concerts happened all over the world. APPRECIATE WE DID, and I'm sure everyone who attended these shows hold those memories deep in their hearts as I do.

    It was wonderful being in middle school and high school in the 70's. I think then I did take this music for granted a bit, but honestly, it's what we were surrounded by. We had the great music from the 50s and 60s as well to listen to as our "old school" music. It was a great time to be into music.

    This started out as a simple finger-picking exercise for Kerry Livgren (the guitarist on the left) and at his wife's suggestion, he turned it into a song. He and Steve Walsh, the lead vocalist, were the principal songwriters for Kansas but Kerry wrote the most and also the deepest lyrics.
