  • thumbs up if you only came here for sax solo

  • este tema es muy bueno lo busque por mucho tiempo ya que no sabia quien lo cantaba ni como se llamaba el tema pero gracias a lisa simson lo localise y ahora le busco su traduccion

  • Dear Mr. Rafferty, I'm trying my best to get the first part of this right and can't do it. I got my sax back out of it's case just to do this. My mission is to youtube my attempt and hope people don't laugh and point at me. Can you give me a little tip? your's, Garry the lips.

  • I love the saxophone solo!!! I completely need to get a saxophone and practice this solo over and over again! :)

  • The saxophone... <3

    The reason I want to get a Sax and start playing it!

  • i only came here for the solo. is is so GOD DAMN AWESOME.

  • anybody know where to get parts for tenor sax? altos fine too.

  • This song is amazing to touch yourself to! Just saying'.

  • @MrVinnayy HAHAHAHA Classic

  • Singing in this song is sublime, don't care about what other people say. Without the singing parts the solo wouldn't have half the impact it does..

  • magic

    

  • BA BA BA BA BADIBAAAAAAA BA BA BA BADIBAAAAAHHHARAAAHH

  • OK, so doesn't this just give you the urge to go pick up your sax and play for hours on end?! :P

  • Comment removed

  • im gonna go play my saxophone now :)

  • 1:44 - 2:18 was the best part for sure :)

  • Dude, cut the wole singing part out, it's ruining the epic sax solo :o

  • That sax is so sexual, i bet he got a big and powerful mustache that he likes to tickle people with, and he takes a daily bath in smooth chocolate.

  • This Solo, It makes me want to learn to play the saxophone

  • you just fade away as soon as you hear the start of that sax. Think its only one of a few pieces where I just listen to it in admiration at my love for music <3

  • It finished as it started, with a check on time and money. One might wonder which will run out first. Gerry might have thought at the time it was all about the money, but in retrospect for him it was "time."

  • @Theirshfrlrocks omg, same thing here! i first heard this song from lisa simpson cuz my dad for some reason doesn't like this song but i love it. its like made of epicness!

  • RIP GERRY

  • Lisa Simpson brought me here:) I love the sax I think it's everyone's favourite part of this song!! It's amazing!!

  • the sax solo makes me want cry and ask me to be brave to what happen to me at same time

  • Sax is epic

  • Ba Ba Ba Booey

  • this must be epic sax guys mentor at 0.24

  • I wish Gerry had given up the "booze"--he will be a missed talent... and the saxophonist? Absolutely amazing.

  • I haven't stopped crying since I heard he is gone, Thank you Gerry, your music helped make the world happier.

  • sweet

    

  • A TRIBUTE TO Gerry Rafferty!!!

    He kept at true good humour's mark

    The social flow of pleasure's tide:

    He never made a brow look dark,

    Nor caused a tear, but when he died.

  • R.I.P. Gerry, Thank you for the music

  • R.I.P GERRY RAFFERTY

  • In memory to Gerry: R.I.P.

  • Comment removed

  • R.I.P Gerry

  • I thought the lyrics were powerful, they resonated with me and the sax just topped it off. If you have ever been new to a big City and your alone, looking for work.....well, I think if you really listen you might understand.

    R.I.P. GERRY RAFFERTY

  • Hallo,

    für mich ist baker street das beste Lied aller zeiten........!!!!!!

  • i like red and black checkered shirts .....and saxaphones look like some exotic fruit from a lonely secluded palm tree somewhere between brazil and hawaii that you can play thern eat and become the nerd who sings this song

  • I would like to live in such beautiful times..When music was so unforgettable.

  • thats the alto sax right????????? because i wanna start playing sax and i want the sax with this sound so can you tell me what type is it???

  • @michael00713

    actually I believe it is a 'tenor sax' my friend

  • @MsPoisonpen no it's actually pretty clear it's an alto sax.

  • @michael00713 it's an alto, youtube baker street alto sax and watch those vids if you still are not sure

  • The reason I learnt to play the saxophone, I'm fourteen and by the time I'm sixteen I want to master this sax solo! :)

  • @borat935 agreed

  • WOW, this is a great song, good lyrics one can identify with plus the seventies made this song an anthem

  • love this song, just hits the spot.for me, So full of soul.

  • Raphael Ravenscroft is the saxophone player

  • @LottsaLasagna Ravenscroft was given the credits but it was my uncle Alf who played the session

  • love the sax :)

  • The Sax-Solo is the best one ever! - It is legendary!

    Less singing, more sax...

  • i dunno about the rest of u but i think the absolute best part of the song is the sax , the singing is kinda boring

  • @borat935

    ぼくは、この歌が大好きです。Gerry Rafferty - Baker Street

  • @borat935

    the guitar solos pretty awesome as well

  • borat935 is kinda boring

  • great Gerry, great music and great sax !!! In 1978 (13 years old) I bought my first album: City to City....

  • É uma música emocionante...o solo de sax é um hino de vitória.

    Sempre que ouço Baker Street imagino uma sexta-feira de garoa, eu em casa com a sensação de que venci mais uma semana louca!

    É isso aí!

    tan tanan tananaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!

  • @LunarisDeathtiger

    there are even better and more powerfull sexamaphone songs :O

    plz tell me them

  • @LunarisDeathtiger Remember the sax solo on Hzel O'Connor's "Will you" ... great stuff. But I still put this one at the top of my list.

  • Simply beautiful,great memories.5 *

  • Heard this song today on the radio and, boy, did it just bring back so many sweet memories! The voice, the lyrics, the melody, that killer sax! I had to look it up so I could hear more!

    I adore GR songs and the band! Nothing else, then or now, even comes close! There's something beyond-special about a singer/songwriter/musician who strikes a unique, distinct sound! From the first note, you know: Gerry Rafferty!!

    Hoping it really is "you."

    One who can't live without music,

    Willa

  • Oops...sorry about the last part...that was in a comment left for someone I hope IS GR! It wasn't supposed to be here, though!
