Love this song, thank you for posting and sharing this awesome song.

[sergiogomez8022]

Nobody refers to my this song. I was there! Living my adolescence. Living a great age of music! 1974

[folladordeprostis]

This song is about the french fighter plane?

[Robert0087able]

I will live the way its ment for me with up's and down's and mysterys, ohhh ohhh I am just a mirage. I love this song.

[xUNKNOWNxAC94]

[zcg3]

[33karamy]

[omar72600]

[Chino7762]

[EROSPONCHIONE]

MASTERPIECE ASSOLUTO, GIGANTESCO CARLOS!!! ESTASI TOTALE!!!

[dolnyy]

zajebisty kawałek!! super! :D

[sabri1998]

Una gran cancion, que asi nomas no se escucha, por lo menosa en el Peru. Jorge Olarte Lima Peru

[Hoagie54dx]

This song rules

[Kaduguariente]

We i say all those drums i say in a generic way..i have the album , i Know this..

[kestiefreehawk]

I got some high grade weed for ya larykarry ;) 25000 a kilo ;) cash up front kay ;)

[insongful]

Santana is so great! He is one of my favorite guitarists and he is Number One!

[harddivej]

straight vibin...

[chickenwretch]

Santana no one comes close IMO. He doesn't need lyrics, his guitar says it all.

[alantew]

Well son - I'm still here in the Welsh hills - the glouriousness of the welsh mist and fog - says it all

[AleekahTV]

too smooth.

[Kaduguariente]

Detail: Airto Moreira play all those drums on this record..

[drumsyeah]

@Kaduguariente You are incorrect....Three drummers were utilized on this LP.....Michael Shrieve was behind the drum kit on Mirage........................­.

[Kaduguariente]

Your father was a great guy...

[cs868]

@lonewolf36  Thanks,man, for that tidbit. What you said was kinda' what I already said. A freakin' parrot. Bwaaaaawk.

[soulsupremeful]

I really enjoyed this track - thanku :D

[superblanco444]

I saw them at The San Diego Sports Arena soon after this album was released. People didn't like that they had changed their style just like Led Zepplin fans didn't like it when Houses of the Holy came out. AHEAD OF THEIR TIME!!

[Znjiify]

Јеботе, ова песма трипује опасно!

[MMAPGUIA]

amo, amo, amo.... ouço esta música desde pequena, há mais de 30anos

[familybc146]

This album and Moonflower were always my favorites from Santana. Of course I loved them all....

[ferminc54]

ALWAYS i AM JUST A MIRAGE LOOK AT ME I'M REBORN I'M JUST MIRAGE OF MYSELF ALWAYS FLYING WITH MYSTERY I'M JUST A MIRAGE YA! AWESOME CARLOS JUST A MIRAGE

[newsmanbluesman]

the deepest funkiest santana band is this one with Christian songwriter and singer and supreme keybioad stylist Leon Patillo - this pairing of bandleader and front man should have lasted longer than two years. At 3 40 shrieve brings the east bay accent & the most spine-tingling trail I've ever heard ensues - at a show they mgiht have played this for minutes, and only gone to place of groove more profound. Here's the psychedlea, the transcendence, that even Mclaughlin S Greenwich could not offer

[KumarsDad]

Carlos is totally awesome.After 42 years of listening and seeing him in concert,I'm still in awe.

[hsgamj]

One of the all times greats? Absolutely!

[Duendeflamenco]

One of the all-time greatest Santana hits !!

[fpsexcellence]

My father always played Santana when I was a kid. This song reminds me of him.

R.I.P

[duduvissotto]

@fpsexcellence RIP !

[MjLucho]

@fpsexcellence

it's always the things that remind us of the one's we've lost that remind us of the gifts we were given too by them

Your father is at peace

[flyinv1967]

@fpsexcellence My best friend now gone had this album too.Always proud of his Santana T shirt he bought at the concert

[CassettePlaya1]

Moooraage lol

[giampiero52]

I was there in Santana Rome concert in the 2-1975 palazzo dello sport EUR and since I`ve been a Santana lovers

[kaleidoscopesea]

I've been listening to Santana since '92; the year i was born

[kaleidoscopesea]

I've been listening to Santana since '92; the year i was born <3<3

[Gkabe]

ooooooo  I am just a mirage :))))))))))))

[shonyajones]

I have been liking sn i was 10 years old

[pathweaver1]

The first time I saw Santana I was 16 yrs old; it was Sept. 1969; and I just got married that morning! Santana was the opening band for Sly and the Family Stone. All I can say is Santana blew Sly Stone out of the water! They were truly amazing and I'm lucky to have seen them play many times! (The marriage lasted a year..LOL) Oh yah, I'm lucky to have seen Jimi Hendrix 2 x's,.. Love all the oldies!

[oslchu]

Carlos is the man!

[ReeNaissance]

i missed the chance to meet this amazing man last month. how pathetic :(

[stalkingwolf1954]

I've said before that Santana just keeps gettin' better and I ain't wrong. I haven't listened to his new stuff, in fact the last song I heard was 'Hold On'. This is the first of his newer music that I've heard, and it's great. Carlos, don't stop recordin'?

[274krisful]

@stalkingwolf1954

Yup, yup.h

[cs868]

@stalkingwolf1954 You why this "new stuff" sounds so good? It was first new in 1974. lol. It's a great song and great playing......................p­robably why it sounds so fresh today.

[Lonewolf36]

@cs868 Music has no age- it just is. Whether it was 100 years ago, 100 days or yesterday, the quality that goes into the music is what is captivating and ageless, timeless. I tend to listen to "older" music myself and it stays as fresh today as it did when released/written.

[WiginWhopper]

TOP RECORD!!!!!!

This record still gets kids goin wild in the clubs

MASSIVE testament to the timelessness of this track

TOP Vibes on this one!!!!!!!!!!

[KATBDrummerOfficial]

So nobody sampled this song right?

[TEKDIF]

@KATBDrummerOfficial yea okay but im sure someone has chopped this record over time, but u think you can make a beat from the classic "MIRAGE" or something

[Punisher0015]

i smoke before everything. even fuckin church

[adamheron]

This is my favourite song. This is the best track i have ever heard in my life. This track strokes my demons and speaks to my soul. I am just a mirage.

[pumpkintop79]

This is one of Santan's greatest hits of all times and my favorite... You can really loose yourself in this one, think back to when times weren't as crazy and a bit more relaxed. They knew what music was all about. You didn't have to scream to make music it just flowed. Yah! 

[jafrocubic2]

@pumpkintop79 Man...you couldn't have said it any better, my friend.It just makes me think about how cool it would have been to be alive back then.Think I was born about 30years too late.I listen to this song on the lonly beaches I find in Indo, where it almost feels like being transported back in time and I just pretend.I pretend that world of problems out there just doesn't exist.That things are cool and easy.It's a beautiful track and I love to lose myself in it.Good call!!!

[Katzweasel]

When you reach a sweet place in your deepest being all else is a mirage

And then you become just a mirage

Drugs have nothing to do with it

You are the beauty of existence

[tslick75]

this guy is my favorite santana singer.

[Prophit02]

The melody until 0:50 is disgusting.

[captgoose]

@Prophit02 you're missing the essence of the melody. This was world music back in the early 70's. Tom Coster is a great musician and the melody is suggestive to the regions where you would associate a mirage from.

[Prophit02]

@captgoose Well I meant disgusting in a good way. Haha kids these days.

[salamisalamibaloney]

I really dig the ghostly guitar chord swirls around 3:15. Nice touch!

[piratpatt]

drugs or not this is one of the best songs ever written.

[taildragger53]

What drew me to this classic record was intially it's cover.

 Ornately Blue with a gorgeous sheen. It still remains among my favourite Santana albums together with Abraxas, Caravanserai and the 2nd album.

[eddman76O]

mary jane doesnt make anything better...dumbasses.

[garyn1953]

Carlos was the first concert I ever went to. It was 1970. It was Baltimore, MD USA. I am a Black Man. Carlos is My Brother. This album is part of the space time continuum. I am just a mirage.

[taildragger53]

@garyn1953 I'm with you entirely my friend!

[deontesmith2011]

I just love this song so much from the bottom of my heart. I just does something to me everytime I hear it.

[ETPEREZ13]

ES TODO HOME BOY SANTANA IS MY DOGG ALWAYS HAS BEEN  KEEP IT UP HOMES !!!

[madmex1000]

@ETPEREZ13 He is not a dog nor a boy. Grow up and get out of the ghetto. His name is ont HOMES. Its 2010 go out and read a book. Better your self.

[UNPRECEDENTEDA777]

Get off all those whoare junkies from here! We love music!

[Armadillojewels]

It skipped!!!!

[qwerly45]

Not into weed or any drugs anymore although I was really tempted to try loads of different drugs at one stage. Weed, shrooms, acid, DMT. No reason why others should not experiment though. Just saying it wasn't for me, curiousity is natural.

[luisitolindo]

Este tema es el mejor del album, sin lugar a dudas!!!!

[larrykarry]

I spend all my money on high grade weed. I like staring into space, confusion and an urge to eat sugar puffs. its not much, but its a hobby. Thumb this bad boy up if you enjoy thumbing things up because some random stoner asks you too.

[racevidfreak]

@larrykarry you funny for a roundeye. "I am squishing your head!" haha no thumbs up, but laughing at your comment

[PaulAnthony2009]

@larrykarry respect to you , at least you dont hurt no one wiv ur hobby

[aghnifrid]

@larrykarry you are contributing to the violence in the world, have you thought about that?

[savamiletic91]

@larrykarry

ah a college.... nice xD

[aggerskrtel]

this is the first santana song ive ever heard othet than that smooth lik ethe ocean - me likes

[hailabg]

Classic album indeed I have always liked Mirage something nostalgic about this song!!!XXX!!!~X~!!!~O~!!!HA

[eddyguitar11]

Since I'm in that mood,heres Carlos at one of his most emotional times.

[ogunonjo]

only a couple of artists from the woodstock concert that are still around nowadays making music..successfully that is...are we forgetting like 10 years ago when he had like 4-5 new tunes on the radio? i would say he is pretty damn popular still, but not this music here....im a music fan and guitarist and i just discovered this not long ago....its part of its charm i think..but there are some serious grooves on this album

[robertonestico]

Siiiiiiiiii

[rg2027x]

Awesome track from a great album. Thanks for the upload!

[qweras13]

santana..the best! and the mogg orgel ...so nice!!!!!!!

[racevidfreak]

wow... I bought this album in 1977 and have loved it ever since...

[misterbe021]

wow- took me way bak to 8-track days

[Nohamah]

Loen Patillo did an exellent job on vocals!!!

[matarrata]

thats so right men!

[mauro9601]

Tra le più belle dei Santana ;-)

[dmgcat]

I thought I have heard all of Santanas music but I never heard this before I love the sound and vibe, I think this is one of my favs now.

[extremefightingtv]

@dmgcat

i was just thinking the same thing, im 35, been a santana fan for atleast 18 years, and this is my first time hearing this song...one my favs now. It suck s that he's not more mainstream. i wonder why....is it becasuse hes mex?

santana rocks...

[tuktuktok]

@extremefightingtv Some of Santanas works are quite well known but I agree that jewels like these aren't. And no, its not because he was born in mexico. It's because in todays music business shit sells and Santana is the opposite of that.

[rarebully]

I have to admit to liking this track. Santana had created their own brand of Latin Rock, and then moved on to Jazz Fusion with the albums 'Carvanserai' and 'Welcome' , but in 1974 they seemed to veer towards with Soul with the Barboleta album which features this track. Santana at the time were incredibly creative and seemed to be able to recognise the best music in many genres.

[Emokidtree123]

a classic, santana is sadly an underrated artist he is sooooooooo amazing

[dantehable]

cómo me gusta este álbum... y no lo puedo bajar

[2faatcaats]

this is one of the best tunes to space out with....

yessssss

just like 1Bandit455 @maduka37 said it...

[anthonya13]

what are some other santana songs that are really awesome, and are there any funky ones like this>?

[key2kingdom]

check out 'hope you're feeling better', 'just in time to see the sun' (a 16 year old Neal Schon solos on that one), 'song of the wind'.............

[mmccabe111]

I was 19 , listening to this in the car on 8-track.. awesome album.. had to replace it on CD!

[dmgcat]

Thanks LamontCJ-great tune I've never heard before.

[DoctorSess]

uh oh dont hate me but this might be begging me to sample it ;-)

[jafrocubic]

@DoctorSess I was listening to this song today, for like the first time in about six years (just got a laptop so...) and I was thinking the exact same thing! I could totally see a really talented hip hop artist like Mos Def or someone rhyming over the opening beat (:14-:50) and using the chorus' beat as the bridge. Talented would be the key. And don't crucify me people; I'm a HUGE Santana fan!  He's been one of my favorites for a good twenty years....

[noirtriptyline]

@jafrocubic See that's what I say man...the concept of musical genre is so fluid. Many different styles could blend easily into another and create a totally unique musical bricollage. Mos Def would be perfect at the beginning...his rhyme style and cadence would complement this greatly.

[ana21cristina]

esta chida jejeje

[romol2000]

what a fabulous album! latin jazz 100%.

[Starlitblond]

he had/has so many great albums...

[HuggumsMcgehee]

I can't believe I waited so late to start gettin into Santana.

[rotterdam1953]

It's never TOO late for ANYTHING - especially Santana! :-)

[hankyhoyo]

Love this song! My favorite Santana album! Brings back good memories.

[rarebully]

Fabulous, highlight of an era where Santana really were cutting edge

[nofear39]

Who's the singer?

[AllanDuran61]

Leon Patillo was the singer in this song.

[LadyMakavity]

Fue lo primero que escuché de Santana cuando tenia 18 años !!!!!Que tiempos guays!!!!

[pumpkintop79]

one of the great's from the 70's, one of many

[animal90sFreak5]

Wow so touching and wonderful,puts a good mindset in my mind.

[copali]

perfect song for a perfect day!!!

thank you santana!

[sorax207]

this kind of reminds me of sonic for some strange reason i think sonic adventure battle 2 or some other sonic games to but yeah it kind reminds me of sonic

[neonsaints321]

dude ur the first person who thought wat i thought cuz wen i heard this song it reminded me of sonic too...the one from dreamcast....dude ur a mind reader haha

[westpalmscott]

One of my favorite Santana albums from late 1974 or early 75. More Jazz fusion than pop

[grandirensemble]

santana the teacher

[lgallardo93]

Imagine Bossa n´Santana

[MrBOB717]

great music,thank you

[noshcable]

Great song so sensual.

[nmsudan]

A favorite road song from college days

[albyiena90]

the singer are Gregg Rolie ???

[PhillyGregA]

SINGER IS LEON PATILLO

[albyiena90]

tanks =)

[maduka37]

I bought the cd of Borboletta this week. When you get older, and sickness comes sometimes the good memories keeps you going on!

[1Bandit455]

@maduka37 - I have the CD and the original Cassette which I wore out. Yes if I feel down or sick - this music does lift your Spirit -Peace !!!!.

[flamesky9]

this music is my drug. and im still drug free

[chris13104]

drugs are great.

[duhjuce]

@chris13104 no.

[bigblackdaddy1958]

@chris13104 yeah,as long as they is not illegal and they can't do you no harm

[extremefightingtv]

I've been a big time santana fan for a long time...im 34, and I can't believe it took me all this time to know that this song existed...thank you youtube.

Santana is God

[extremefightingtv]

man i love this song...so efin grooving....im just a mirageeeee...cool beat carlitos..

[xtasy2k7]

AMAZNG song!! This has so much energy and passion and alot of atmosphere. Beautiful.

[zyzycs]

damn, he should take some LSD again

[macstar2002]

still magic!

[maduka37]

Thanks Lamont for this beautiful song!! Life is like a mirage..what you see is not what it is... A friend of mine loved this song very much, but he got addicted to drugs and died. So every time I hear the songs of Barboleta they remind me of him.

[goodgeorgew]

In fact, people who REALLY like music DON'T take drugs. They don't need them,because music is better. AR.LO.

[Aivopiirakka]

Your totally wrong. Those who take for example marijuana when listening music, don't use it to make music sound good. They like the music, but take marijuana to make it sound even better. Of course you don't believe me because you haven't tried it, I suppose. But don't be so narrow-minded.

[viskipaukku]

Good words for people who do not know what they are talking about.Open your eyes, open your ears and open your mind that's my advice to everyone.

[69MC97gc]

@Aivopiirakka En ole koskaan koittanut,mutta olet varmaan oikeassa.Kaikki mitkä toimii aivoissa avajana,kaikki mitkä antaa meidän tuntea ...ne ovat hyvät aineet.Ja anna kaikkien aineeden antaa meille hyvät tunteet.Uskon,mutta kaikki aineet ei anna hyvää tuntoa.

[zedamasio]

@Aivopiirakka that's so very true, but the price is so, so high!!!!!!! early fatigue, absence of memory and concentration, nervous and mind breakdown, schizophrenia and suicidal tendencies

[Aivopiirakka]

@zedamasio You, my friend, clearly are a victim of marijuana propaganda. Although I can clearly see that shit coming when you do nothing but smoke.

[zedamasio]

@Aivopiirakka there's a saying where I come from that goes like this "fia-te na Virgem e não corras, não!" into english freely translated is something like "you relied yourself in the Hole Virgin and don't start running right now if you want to know what is good for you!!!!" :D but I think when we talk about your life, you are the one who knows best!!!! everything good for you is my sincere wishes!!! take care!!!

[Aivopiirakka]

@zedamasio Thanks mate! In my country we would now say "Have a good summer!"

[RavensOfMyFuneral]

@zedamasio

That is comlete bullshit my friend. If you smoke moderatly you will have no problems. If you overuse anything you will have a problem.

[zedamasio]

@RavensOfMyFuneral Ravens, this is serious dangerous ground. I know it and it was not because I read it somewhere!!!!!

[alexiscaine]

@RavensOfMyFuneral Absolutely correct dude!

[wiggalama]

@Aivopiirakka You just completly contradicted your :facepalm:

[geraldheffel]

@wiggalama he in no way contradicted himself, lol evidently you shouldn't be using words you don't understand the meanings of, his statement is correct, the music's good, but some hash makes it even better ;)

[DREZ33]

@Aivopiirakka And it never hurts to have scientific proof. The reason cannibus makes music and everything else better is because its a "psycho-active" Meaning that it turns your brains activity way up. a brain scan of a

"thc brain" is working 2 to 3 times more efficiently than a sober brain. plus no drug from acid to thc would even work if our brains didnt have the proper stimuli to accept those certain chemicals. thc is a seratonin alternative which your brain already makes.

[DREZ33]

@DREZ33 i love superstitious opinions taken from other people in the first place with no research. there always hilarious. and wrong. you figure that in the thousands of years of thc use, if there was anything negative about it they would have stopped. hmmmm...

[nurelkamash]

@DREZ33 I love my country because it's legal =D so no high prices for shitty bags

[EclecticDiscus]

@Aivopiirakka My thumb is pointing way up my friend! and I haven't smoked in 25 years........WHY? gots to think about that and find me some smoke.

[sparklysparks77]

@EclecticDiscus Something is telling me you are not 20 anymore. Respect!... :)
