dawm if this is what they played back then then shiett thats why hippies were so fucked up, smokin weed and taking acid and listening to this good music
man everytime i get on the plane leaving my hometown in CA I always hum this to myself. This song really speaks to me. Just need to change 707 to 787 but other than that seems like its just like the 70s :)
@clscrock no he doesn't the music isn't his so the actual record company that owns the song is making the money instead of just taking his video down.
@619russman I don't think your going to get much thought your just make the ratings go down and YouTube is not going to stop just throwing ads every which way
My dad found the cassette version of this still in prime condition in an old locker of his and it's all we listen to whenever we travel. I thank him for it.
@porblazerfan503 There's definitely a free download if you use Google Chrome or Firefox. The one that I use is just called AdBlock. Pretty sure it's one of the most popular and widely used around.
@fish67y even the advertisements that let you skip them after you've seen 5 seconds of it. ESPECIALLY those advertisements. people have their mind made up to whether they do or do not want to sit through youtube's goddamn annoying commercials before we click on the video, it's not like those 5 seconds will somehow convince us otherwise or do any good for the advertisers either, for that matter.
@AbsinthianEnvy yup. Me too. When I was a kid my dad would always ask me "Who's this?" while listening to the classic rock station in his car and since 2004 we have made the tradition of going to see classic rock concerts - Steve Miller Band being one of them!
@AbsinthianEnvy this music is great, im only 14 yet , and i grew up listening to it yet it came out in the 70's. for some reason i always love to think of a day where i listen to this on a sunny beach with meh girl.
In a few months, I'm getting the Steve miller band Pegasus horse tattooed on my upper chest/arm area with "Don't carry me too far away" tattooed somewhere in that area as well.
I will never understand why this guy is so popular, his music is so horrible and cheesy....his lyrics are inane and his songs are about as edgy as a marble...I pretty much put him on par with Jimmy Buffet in terms of his sappy ridiculous subject matter of his songs. His music is lame, hook-laden crap, and, like Buffet, his music has absolutely zero relevance to any enlightened music fan.
wow im so glad i found this music. its like if you could measure pure awesomeness this would blow the scale, well it definately blows my mind how techno rap and queero bands have taken over the music industrie i just dont understand what happened
this has nothing to do with steve miller band, but it just came to me that
there should be a youtube layout just has like every cutified, so the like button says, I LIKEZ DIS and the heart is the balls face :3 lol who agrees?
@sarahiscool1 Ha wellll I guess I could be a lucky daughter of a bitch? But I'm not a son of a bitch. & I'm not sure what you're parents hating has to do with you seeing them, but that sucks.
@speakthetruth411 Haha. Well I'm only 15 so I can't just buy a plane ticket and go see a concert without my parents approaval. I would if I could though.
@sarahiscool1 more discipline? what are you a stay at home geek? i can butt into any conversation i want, ever heard of freedom of speech? oh wait your still 15years old being your parents bitch. how am i a youtube troll when lots of people go around stateing there comments on what they think. thats why its call "respond to this video" dumb ass
