    I never knew the name of it.

    Thank You for posting.

  • great song

  • eww the pitch on this is way high...

  • When this song came out, the synthesizer sounds were still pretty unusual. All we had had were organs & Fender Rhodes pianos, until the Moody Blues popularized the Mellotron. Then the Moog Synthesizer came out & Emerson, Lake & Palmer were tops with that. They were still mostly monophonic, & I'm not sure if that was still the case, but I think they fit extremely well & it's my most favorite part.

  • @HeartoftheDragonColo

    You're right! The synthesizer was still a relatively new and fresh sounding instrument when this album came out. It was the Minimoog's main competition, a synth called the ARP Odyssey, which was used on this song as well as some of the other songs on this album. Steve says he also used a "really cheap Roland synthesizer" on this album as well.

  • @jackienlinda ugh, that is the most annoying part of this song. it's a synthesizer, nothing really special.

  • I'm usually pretty chill, but this song makes me get up and dance my butt off!! I love it!!

  • I love the song up to when the solo stops then it gets kinda weird... there should have been another verse instead of synthesizer sounds

  • @lvl99nooob i completely disagree. the ending wraps up the entire song flawlessly, it's fantastically beautiful.

  • 1 Person worked to hard..

  • This reminds me of 70's california....volkswagen bus, surf board on top, a guy with shaggy brown hair and pukka shell necklace on, having a blast at the beach with his friends and girlfriend. ahhh the good ol' days....which i was never around for. :[
