Chicago - You're The Inspiration (Live Video)

[avalinne1]

i walked down the aisle to this song :-)

[gothatway09]

I remember in high school and college during the 90s, my buddies and I used to jokingly sing this and other melodramatic 80s songs like this that we grew up with as little kids, just to be funny. We would act like we hated Peter Cetera and these kind of 80s songs just to be cool, but secretly we all liked them a lot.

[32a34a]

I love the way the little girl looks at the little boy.

She is like I am gonna fuck you into a coma. My

little girl better not look at a boy like that until shes

21.

[frank53681]

@32a34a I know what you mean. My little girl is seven. However I know that once she turns 18 I really can't tell her what to do anymore.

[arshadieu]

Rofl the singer kinda looks like Rocco Siffredi ^^

[shareice]

i love this song, and im young but this will play at my reception!! i love it so much!

[maalbrig]

I love the guy rocking out and reading the newspaper at 2:10.

[dylanr64]

26 people are not an inspiration

[mbernalrod]

Wow! I used to sing this song when I was in the highschool. I knew it by hart. Great song!

[232coringa]

O vídeo é mais ou menos, mais a música é linda, o pessoa antigamente tinha grandes inspirações. Parabéns.

[KyleKatarn789]

Looks like Madonna and Billy Idol in the beginning. :-D

[XBOX1470]

my dad dedicated this song to my mom back in......a long time ago

[lwkylersmon]

@svoit41 Peter Cetera is in fact left handed but has always played a right handed bass.

[Weaselwarrior6]

...I don't know what just happened... I mean, I just started listening to this song and then this girl came in and we made love on the spot...no words... I didnt even know her... WHO DID I SLEEP WITH?! ...this song is awesome...

[shannon4599usa]

How this song become on MTV'S 100 worst songs of all time?

I don't get it! This is a great song and great video.

[101BerriCherri]

I wanna have you near me, cause no one needs you more than i need you. (:

[marjorierosa]

No one needs you more than I need.

[Ciana313]

Essa Musica é muito gostosa!!!

[VanderGraafBozo]

Bauhaus...

Peter Cetera just got 100x more awesome for me...

[TheVillageMan95]

Ah 80's: The best music in my opinion. This is one of my favorite songs from that era. Chicago is one of the best there is. This song is so touching: especially if you dedicate it to some who truly inspires you. I just love both the music and the lyrics.

[REDSCOUT3]

You guys are making yourselves look like fuckin fools out there who mention the number of dislikes in your comments. I mean really it's just a bunch of thumbs on youtube and nothing special. If you're just doing that to get the top comment then you guys are fuckin foolish kids that need to grow up and stop using overused comments and getting really irritating - especially on videos I love watching

[Mila91276]

:)

[Mila91276]

this is real music

[keesimo]

The freaking synths!

[Freyja1133]

Peter cetera Please come Back !  with Out you chicago's lost their inspiration!

[dylanr64]

24 people ain't the inspiration

[Cpt50Caliber]

Blonde haired singer looks like Harry from Speed :L

[lucrivavta1]

Nice song i loved

[euphoricdream]

"dedacation" <~~~~~Yeah, that's how you spell it! LMAO

[ayla8251]

this man can blow. what vocals

[cubano2031]

the best!!!!!!!!



[cparkes92]

Four keyboardists?? This song has more keyboardists than Lynyrd Skynyrd had guitarists in Free Bird.

[fayette202]

@cparkes92 yeah, since they didn't use use the brass and woodwinds on this, Pankow, Lochnane and Parazaider had to pretend they were making some sort of contribution. In concert, they were probably back stage taking a smoke break during this song.

[beauty3698]

i love this song i thank of my man every time i hear this song he is my everything and my insperation i love you dracula!

[TheTLElliott]

Man Peter Cetera was living large in 1985, that's for sure.

[BathrobeKeck]

was that Cindi Luaper at the beginning?

[True165]

such a great under rated song 500k hits deserves 10 times that many epic song

[ColumRogers]

It restores my faith in humanity to know that amazing bands like Chicago will always be treasured and loved for eternity. Can you see Maroon 5 or Rihanna being remembered in 30 odd years? :)

[Samalamalamdam]

@ColumRogers Nothing wrong with Maroon 5.

[TauCetiAlpha]

Chicago 17 and Journey Frontiers.  Two of the best albums of all time.

[11kec]

Do you remember the person you had a crush on when this came song came out?

[kafkazinho]

Great musicians!But...did they need so amny keyboards?

[20000914]

Way to Screw^ the audio in the first 30 seconds WMG.

[g35288]

really a 2 min jersey shore ad that i cant skip!?!?!?!?!?! if i didnt love chicago.....

[jayjay6301]

kind of love that lasts forever

[ALEXEVERCOOL]

Mr. Peter Cetera one of the greats singers of that we call MUSIC, not the garbage of ²²music²² these days

[JerkbagProductions]

Apparently, there are 37 keyboardists in this band.

[TheBigupz]

@JerkbagProductions they just dont play 1 instrument and for most of the songs theres 2 or 3

[spikester550]

this is music

[theamazingtoot]

dang i love that drum sound and keyboard and guitar!

[probrojeffro]

Cetera full tilt into Adult Contemporary.

[PRIVATECorp]

OK, I can admit there are some rough notes in this song, but I can't bash it after knowing what can happen if you screw up the cover version of this song. I can get that some of the bad notes in this song turn some off, but why would this be a bad song? It's very touching and it's very sad to have a little girl lose her father, and then have some douche screw that song up to make her suffer! Hopefully people can reconsider this song to not be one of the 50 worst songs ever.

[Crackable94]

this was my parents first dance at there wedding way back in 89'. :) and there still together to this very day, this is is going to be my first dance with my man when we get married, in dedacation to them. <3 Love you mom and dad. :)

[MyGuardi4n]

@Crackable94 lucky you...

[wllinc777]

@Crackable94 let the love be with you forever=0)

[brewsterbaker]

Good Lord! They need a few more people playing keys in this video. They should have atleast tossed a guitar or two over somebody's shoulder.

[faith753951]

One of the best voices in the world!

[TJCATLOVER]

@faith753951 I agree!!!!

[knownasjc]

@darkspider4444

@kingsnake23

i love this song so much but you both ruined it! Kingsnake23 i understand your point that older music is way better but that doesnt mean that recnet music has to suck your ass. Darkspider4444 i think you are way out of line and you should both give it the fuck up

[Xenooo2k]

thumbs up if you old and a movie didnt bring you here or you just appreciate great lyrics and good music.

NVM i don't need a thumbs up. Just listen thats what your here right!

[leashyp]

I love this song. This was mine and my ex husband's song.

[leashyp]

I love this song. This was mine and my ex husband's song.

[commentchannelful]

I just read the whole stream of comments from you guys (or pussies) and I took screenshots of it and I am laughing my ass off at you and you are just making fools or yourselves. Nobody wins an argument in the youtube comment stream. One person just ends up a little less retarted than the other. You finished asshole, because I am quite ready to just watch the video.

[darkspider4444]

@commentchannelful

Why read the comments if you don't like them, you idiot?

[Shaun17170]

the vido is lame

[3456atmskater]

Is that Cindy Lauper?

[panicatthekhk]

@darkspider4444

@kingsnake23

Internet arguments are like the special olympics...even if you win, you're still retarded.

Enough of the stupid-ass flame war.

[rusty67ful]

one of the best bands ever put together good music for those who like classic rock give them the chance to let you enjoy good music

[TheKimberBenton]

From the band's last album with Peter Cetera, this song celebrates someone who's finally found the person who inspires him.

David Foster wrote the song with Peter Cetera. Foster also produced the album.

Cetera and Foster wrote this song for Kenny Rogers. When Rogers didn't record it, they rewrote it a bit and recorded it for Chicago.

[kingsnake23]

This is real music, all the music thats happening right now, can all suck my ass.

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23

shut up.

you're no music critic.

you can't judge other people's tastes based on your own.

just shut up and let the rest of us enjoy whatever we please.

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 Fuck you, I am the real music critic, you or anyone out there just don't know it yet. All the music out there today sucks shit, this is real music, old school all the way.

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23

Wow. you're obviously a lot more stupid than I thought.

I just saw your profile, and I must say, me, a 15 year old kid, is doing way better at life than you. An aspiring music critic wouldn't go vandalizing youtube videos, much less be as profane as you are. You really need to educate yourself first before you go trolling around and being an idiot about people's music choices.

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 I'm all about the critic dumbass.

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23

If someone likes this, great. If they don't, well you'll just have to live with it. Or, what, are you going to go and lecture them about how your chosen genre of music is superior? If you actually listened to this music, and understood it as much as you say you do, then you would be hiding your face in shame because the band Chicago don't endorse imbeciles like you.

Shut up and educate yourself, you neanderthal.

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 Aint no imbecile here or no neanderthal. I'm the real deal bitch, fuck outta here.

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23

Wow, that's incredibly immature.

But, hey, you are right in one thing. You ARE a bitch. Props for recognizing your problem. Now learn how to write, bitch.

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 Fuck outta here, you learn bitch.

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23

actually, you are the one that needs to be educated.

and secondly, you started this dispute by being an arrogant bigot.

so suck it, bitch

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 Don't need therapy or educate, you're just an asshole who likes all the music thats out there today, that is not music, this is music. You suck can suck my dick or cock. Fuck outta here.

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23

HA! "dick or cock"??? They're both the same shit, you freaking dumbass!!!

And so what if I like the music of today? how can it not be music? If its not music, then what is it? vanilla wafer cookies? you're such a dumbass, I don't even need to try to win this. You're just dissing yourself all over the place

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 That's you pal, not me, fuck outta here.

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23

Yes, because repeating "fuck outta here" everytime i own your ass is going to scare me away.

For a twenty year old, you seem to have the mental capability of a 5 year old.

Now that I think about it, maybe you just lied about your age and i'm talking to some idiot in diapers.

Or perhaps you are twenty. even so, whicherver scenario is treu, you still end up looking like a dumbass. Go watch something that your mind can handle, like barney or the teletubbies or something.

Imbecile

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 You don't own me asshole, nobody does. you are the one who wears diapers, and you're the biggest dumbass in the world. I'm gonna fuck your girlfriend while you watch and cry like a little whiny bitch, you go watch Barney & Telletubbies while I also fuck your mom and your sister. Now fuck outta here.

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23

First of all, I don't have a sister.

Second of all, my girlfriend is straight, so she doesn't fuck bitchy little girls like you, she fucks straight guys like me.

Third, use the one brain cell God gave you to actually come up with comebacks of your own. Using mine just means you know you're losing.

Idiot

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 Thats right she fucks straight guys like me, my dick is even bigger than your whole head, and she'll crave all over it, Now fuck outta here.

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 While she rides my giant cock you'll just sit there and watch & cry like a little whiny bitch.

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23 Im going to start ignoring you. Your comebacks are as stupid as your mom Your dick is as big as the dislike bar on this video And I wont sit there and watch I'll take your tiny dick, rip it off, shove it down your throat, and sew your fucking mouth shut. You keep on repeating your comebacks and now you're just sounding like a whiny little pussy so my advice to you is to shut your trap before someone shuts it for you and trust me, they wont be as gentle as I me

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 You finished asshole?

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23

whenever you are, doushebag

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 You finished asshole?

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23

I SAID, whenever you are, you illiterate doushebag

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 I said, Are....You.....Finished....Ass­hole?

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23

i said: whenever..... you..... are...... doushebag

are these words too big for you?

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 I said Are....You....finished....ASSH­OLE? Are these words to big for you?

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23

Are you seriously just repeating all that i'm saying?

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 No, I'm telling you. You may be finished but I aint going nowhere, Now fuck outta here.

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23

God, you are so FUCKING ANNOYING!!!!

How the hell can you be so idiotic???

Repeating everything everything I say and repeating, for the hundreth time, "fuck outta here" is NOT going to make me go away.

Now shut the fuck up, educate yourself, and admit defeat like a good little bitch.

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23

ANd you really need to learn to not use double negatives.

You just basically called yourself an imbecile, a neanderthal, AND a bitch.

You just keep on dissing yourself.

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 Backwards, thats you all three, fuck outta here.

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23

Now you're making no sense.

I'm going to ignore your ridiculous rantings until you grow at least one brain cell capable of producing human speech.

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 You're ridiculous not me, fuck outta here.

[darkspider4444]

@kingsnake23

Shut up. Just shut up. This video was good until you came along.

Doushebag.

[kingsnake23]

@darkspider4444 I didn't start it, you all did.

[ZeppelinFan757]

I saw these guys 4 years ago, and besides Bad Company, they are the single best show I have ever seen.

[CianneDG]

<3<3<3

[Chickenz805]

i gotta pee, but i want to finish the song first

[lindseylcw]

what is this??? can these people sing?

How are they on this video, Geeze I am getting old. Trash is becoming the norm

[teenagedream90jb]

@lindseylcw have you been asleep for the past 20+ years

[MyJunior1975]

Er...live video??? Last time I checked, this was the original video!!!!!

[The5thBeatle2010]

the best song of chicago

[bcat148]

i love this song and i like singing along too

[FridayTN]

21 people don't remember.

[TheKiwiKnight]

[spidertroy4]

Thumbs up if Relient K brought you here!!

[proudUSAFsis]

[TinaAsianPersuasian]

My uncle was listening to this song when he was murdered, It is a great song.

[onetimebuster]

Puppy face at 2:23

[cellosareawesome]

The girl in the video looks like Madonna. lol

[TheInvincible1997]

@cellosareawesome I heard it is.

[pokeplayerHQ]

Watching this on my new tablet, and I still love it!

[xgalore77zerha268]

incredible song

[TravelinBand747]

That's Danny Seraphine on drums, not Chuck Norris, and yes, Cetera is jokingly holding the bass upside down. Of course he'd have known this, being Chicago's original bass player and one of the best there was. Oddly enough, James Pankow, the trombonist, is playing a keyboard in this video.

[logom0]

20 people have no inspiration....

[fatmouth007]

Honestly, what heartless fool would dislike this video?

[taurus2leo]

@fatmouth007 because poor Walt is reading the damn newspaper...because Danny looks like he's gonna kick somebody's ass...because....because....wh­ere is the damn horn section anyways?!?

[bradfordsutphin]

20 people aren't the inspiration

[DookieBubbles333]

this song and video gives me butterflies

[bttfmph88]

Chicago is the best and today's music makes my ears bleed

[sarasab2000]

@bttfmph88 no i'm sorry the beatles are way better than this and todays music isn't that bad

[logan50097]

@sarasab2000 u can shove the beatles up ur ass

[phatsacc3FM]

this shit is classic back when music was music

[ItachiUchiha200871]

[nickjamesreeok]

i like the video on elite beat agents better (:

[TheKnifey]

@nickjamesreeok Hahahah! I played that!

[lionelatl]

love this song

[lilwilloughby121]

LOVE THIS SONG!!!!

[MetallicWarrior55]

Now this is a true MASTERPIECE!

[sxr951]

more organs!!

[gigglesdontjudgeme]

I perfer this to the music today and I grew up in the era of boy bands and this new crap

[SuperSoldier26]

nowadays you don't hear this type of music anymore

[stezzo123]

If Peter Cetera were to ever pull such a high note (very easily) into a microphone while Justin beiber was standing near by a loud speaker his head would explode it would just be all over the place Peter wins over Justin by a landslide his voice is just so so much better his songs are so beautiful while Justin beiber just talks about "oooooooh baby baby spend a night with me with both our parents permission and play Pokemon till 10 and then sleep in separate bedrooms" two words "CHICAGO RULES"

[ultimabk]

whoa whoa whoa... is he jimi hendrixing that bass?

[whydoesmusicsucknow]

@ultimabk I don't know but i think that chuck norris is playing drums.

[jdowns321]

whoever dislikes this is a kid im 12 and i think this is great music thumbs up if you agree

[cmb588]

80's ftw!!!

[g35288]

ima 27 year old thrash metal fan, but this....Damn this is good music. gives me goose bumps when i listen to chicago!!!!!!

[dianaw24]

[davideoakland]

BAHAUS T SHIRT?

[surichiqita]

[hummmberto1]

[twinkster66]

[bonovox1970ify]

20 people have the INSPIRATION to listen to today's crappy music. To you dislikes, this is real music with real instruments, not the autotune crap that they use nowadays.

[JamieHutchins11]
