    The lyrics are so intense....
    'Once I rose above the noise and confusion
    Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion
    I was soaring ever higher
    But I flew too high
    Though my eyes could see, I still was a blind man
    Though my mind could think, I still was a mad man
    I hear the voices when I'm dreaming
    I can hear them say'
    .....
    '...If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know....'
    Absolutely outstanding!

      When Kansas was in the recording session for this album, it was the night before their last day to close it out and I don't know if Kerry had this melody come to him or the lyric, the dude was VERY prolific as a writer of both lyric and melody. But it came to him so he wrote the lyrics down that night along with the basic melody for this.
      He came in almost bashful about it saying he had an idea for one more song. This is the last day of the session. They worked this out that same day. The musicianship of this is amazing, vocals outstanding, guitar, drums and keyboard work all works of art. You listen to any element of this song, any piece of it and it's excellent. They recorded it that evening and that was a wrap. This song made them, and it happened in the last day of the session for this album, from Kerry's thoughts the night before.

    A friend of mine was their tour manager, for many years. Back in the 90’s, he invited me and a couple of our other friends to one of the band’s concerts. We were given full access, and had the joy of actually meeting and talking with the band. Believe me when I tell you that they were the most genuine, humble, and kind people you could ever hope to meet. Being a fan, since I was a boy, in the 70’s, and then meeting them, only to realize what truly great guys they were, really reinforced my love for this legendary band.

    Hardcore Kansas fan here. They're my all-time favorite band, and Carry On is my all-time favorite rock song. Most people know Dust in the Wind, and a few others know Point of Know Return. But they have a lot of songs, and most of them are worth checking out, not just the ones people know.
    Kerry Livgren wrote the song (Steve Walsh was the singer/keyboardist), and he was definitely on a spiritual search. Many of their songs from their first few albums had songs about searching. Livgren eventually became a Christian, so he found the answers he was searching for.
    But a little more background info about this song, it's actually sort of a part 3 of a trilogy of songs. If you listen to their previous album, Masque, the last two songs on that album are Mysteries and Mayhem, and The Pinnacle. The end of Mysteries and Mayhem fades out, and then The Pinnacle starts with the same riff that Mysteries and Mayhem faded out on (though a little slower). And then the last verse of The Pinnacle contains the lyrics "I stood where no man goes/Above the din I rose". Then Carry On's first verse begins, "Once I rose above the noise and confusion", and of course, the word "din" means "a loud, confused noise". So Carry On sort of picks up where The Pinnacle left off.

      Except he didn't have the lyrics of this song until the LAST night of their recording session for this album. In fact it wasn't in his head at ALL until the last night of this recording session, so one song didn't lead to the other. He wrote lyrics as it came to him, so you could envision it that way, but that's not how it happened.
      And to show how outstanding of a bad they were, after Kerry wrote the lyrics down the night before the last day of the session, he went in the next day with basic melodies and the lyrics, they jammed with it that day, recorded it that evening, and all the parts of this are amazing.
      And this is from their documentary. It's on YT, and you can give it a watch.

Internet did not exist so there was no Sirius, Pandora or You Tube. The number 1 way to listen to music was radio. As a 22 y/o dude in '78 I listened to a couple of the local FM rock stations. When Dust In The Wind came out it fit into multiple categories and was played on multiple stations and played and played and played some more. DITW is a very good song and I know that people love it. I'm a pretty big Kansas fan but prefer the long epic proggy tunes more. Those were not radio friendly in '78. Sorry for the rambling.

      Go back one album to Masque, listen to it on with really good and powerful speakers or excellent headset. Get yourself in a quiet mindset before you do, do whatever to just relax and kick back into the music. You'll hear components of these later albums in it. It's also more on the prog rock side in different songs.
      Cheyenne Anthem is one that always makes my heart bleed. But it's another one where you need to calm yourself down and just listen without any kind of judgement while listening. It's a song that if you had a CD a person would likely skip over. I had albums of all this music when it came out, so I would play them all the way through.

    Great reaction to an absolutely incredible song. I have to say I haven't listened to this since I was much younger & really didn't appreciate how truly epic it is. Thank goodness for reaction channels like you guys reminding us of all the great music that's already out there!

      I know this is classic rock, but I feel like you guys haven't done much Metalcore and definitely not Hardcore.
      Metalcore
      August Burns Red - Majoring in the Minors or Mariana's Trench
      Killswitch Engage - Fixation on The Darkness or Life to Lifeless
      Parkway Drive - Breaking Point or Five Months
      As I Lay Dying - The Sound of Truth or Within Destruction
      All that Remains - Six or The Air That I Breathe
      Stick To Your Guns - Bringing You Down or Where The Sun Never Sleeps
      Hardcore
      Coldworld - Refuse to Lose or Cold World
      Bad Seed - Real Rain Pours or Through My Hands
      Biohazard - Black and White and Red all Over or Business
      Trapped Under Ice - Jail or Pleased to Meet you
      Turnstile - Can't Deny It or New Rules
      Dead End Path - Stay up Stay Alive or End on End
      Have Heart - Armed With A Mind or The Machinist
      Thank you

    I love the way this song toes the line between prog rock and a more commercial arena rock sound. It really is the best of both worlds.
