  • Ddubya77, you said it as well as anyone. Music in the 70's was real and I would not change the fact I lived through it all for all the money in the world!!! It was a great decade during which 90% of the great albums were released !!!!! Sabbath, Ufo, Floyd, Yes, Genesis, king Crimson, Zappa, Santana, Lizzy etc. The list is endless !!!!!!!!!!

  • This is the worst lead singer in the history of lead singers, holy shit, this guy is horrible!

  • @StoneyMcJuicyBuds umad bro?

  • @StoneyMcJuicyBuds i will ignore your statement as it seems that you are slightly intoxicated... i wish you a great recovery!

  • @Floaties ... I agree with you...and...How time repeats itself...at least a few get have the time and energy to get away from their pcs and cozy homes to go out in the street again to make their voice be heard...

  • Mój ukochany zespół.....

  • Very good , I am a BUDGIE fan since I was 15... now I am 55 . THANK YOU !

  • Amen Brothers!

  • Genial

  • @mdelair420 and @Skjoldvall - Shut the fuck up and just enjoy the song, ya pair of long winded dummies! Nobody comes on youtube to read your opinions, they come for awesome songs like this!

    Let's use youtube for what it was intended for, a place to see some cool shit, not listen to a couple of retards argue over the state of the world.

  • głosujemy ! top wszech czasów ! do soboty .............. gdyby był jeszcze echoes pink floyd to by był już cud z radia to usłyszeć !

  • How did I miss this in 1973? Thanks for posting it!

  • Tony sounds like hes going to break a string at about 9:13 so awesome..I love the bird sounds whilst he wails on his guitar..Budgie is a cave of treasure if you find this cave you will be so much richer....Peaceout

  • simply amazing

  • I will never pay guitar for this band again BUT it was a pleasure that has lasted till forever. Long live rock n roll.

  • 8 people hate thier parents!!!!

  • I just ate a pillow

  • @cdbogush nice

  • To byla muzyka , to byly klimaty ,,inny Swiat , szkoda ,ze to juz nie wroci ,, ale dziekuje serdecznie ,ze moge po latach wrocic i poczuc sie mlada i szczesliwa . Piekne wspomnienia .. przepiekny utwor ( bo tak kiedys mowilismy ) zamykam oczy i slucham...............!

  • @wrzos2010 posłuchaj  All at sea

  • Brilliant guitar playing. The power of those three notes...

  • My favourite song from that awesome band. The seagulls echoing the rythm of the solo at the end is just something... so amazing! give me the chills and reminds me why I love rock and roll so much. What a band dudes, what a band.

  • This song was written by Burke @ 16 years old. That's why it has that feeling and it is a masterpiece. Budgie's 1st Seven albums, all with mixed reviews but all quality music on each. All different. Such a shame that they had to wait for Metallica to introduce them to the world. Us, in the midwest, already loved them. San Antonio already loved them. Shitty DJ's didn't pick up on it. This is one of the best of the 70's and they will never be recognized by the Rock and Roll Hall of Shame .

  • @metalmaho Well said,this song is amazing..All Budgies songs are great..Rock-n-Roll hall of shame sucks..Rush has not been enducted yet..Rush has a empire...Peaceout

  • Solid drumming is perfect - this song makes my cry - because it speaks of my parents but mainly because I fell in love with it at that impressionable age - 14 - 15 - oh and the seagull sounds!

  • Great song,but why is the drumming so solid???A few cymbals would add more atmosphere or......

  • @TheJanvinyl The Drumming on here is Ray Phillips, that was his style. I've seen Budgie gig this one with both Steve Williams and John Simpson on the kit, and Ray Phillips do it with his own bands Tredgar and Six Ton Budgie, and yeah Mr Phillips does tend to hold back on the cymbals, but thats his style.

  • WOW!! ALL DESE JEARS!!!SINCE I WAZ 13 MAN!!!DA MAGIC UF TECHNULUGIE

  • od lat...

    zawsze ze mną...

  • ah but dear reader, it was a time of great change, some parents feared our new culture, our new ways. some warned us not to take this step into searching for ourselves, expanding our minds, searching for love and peace, something our parents didnt get much of. i am a parent myself and would be scared sh****ess if my daughter got up to half of what i did back then, be not too hard on each other.

  • This band were my introduction to rock, "Guts" and "Nude disintegrating parachutist woman" about 1972,

    It's 1980 and I'm in a rugby club rock disco, just outside of Cardiff, Burke appears wearing an AC DC T shirt, I proceed to take the piss, saying he should be wearing a Budgie shirt or at least Led Zeppelin, he laughed and chatted to us for a while, I even asked him for Bass lessons, which he politely declined.

    Very nice guy and superb band, saw them more than a few times

  • Nobody thought me how to ride a bike.

  • this song is awesome because when u just listen n day dream it takes u to ur imagination

  • Tony Bourge! One of the most underrated rock guitarists ever!

  • Comment removed

  • Very nice song. Hard to find Budgie CDs in Hong Kong.

  • @Floatles The 70's were depressing because a lot of young people were doing heroin, there was a real economic hardship and old conservative ways were clashing with the industrial times. A lot of people went from the country into the cities or immigrated.

  • @Devoidize

    THAT WAS THE ERA OF THE MID EAST OIL EMBARGO AND GETTING A GOOD JOB IS NOT EASY. AND THE AMERICAN GI'S WERE COMING BY THE DOZENS TO THAILAND N ENJOY DRUGS, THE LOCALS HERE GOT INSPIRED TOO. BUT THIS SONG REALLY BRINGS THEM GI'S MEMORIES OF MUM N DAD BACK HOME.

  • i know this band as my dad used to live a down the street from them in cardiff and watch them play. i love this band <3 one of the best guitar players ever

  • In my vinil colection since 74 and rest Budgie rock of seventis.

  • Excellent jam - every guitar player's dream is to have this many solos in one song.

    When you turn 18 and you still live at home, parents become pay-rents.

  • @Floatles I don't see the 70's as even remotely depressing? The 70s contributed some of the greatest music of the century. It was a time of revival, and outspoken youth. The country was changing and life was actually exciting and had depth. I think the time we're in now is fucking depressing... Music sucks and people are becoming more detached from reality, society, and just plain life because of technology. People rather stare at a cell phone then have a conversation...Now that's depressing!

  • @Ddubya77 Lol, we're just changing again. I bet people in the 70s thought their time was depressing too. People are always unhappy because the past looks better, the present sucks and the future is not decided. So give it up already, because life was just as depressing and fucked up and full of conflicts and crap back then as it is now.

  • @Skjoldvall

    Finally someone who talks some sense.

    Every decade has something to offer. It just seems to take a few decades for people to realise it retrospectively.

  • @Skjoldvall yep crrect bro

  • @Skjoldvall Your so wrong..I'll tell why?Autism up 600%..Obesity is at a all time high!!Kids as young as 12.bring guns to school to kill as many kids and teachers as they can!Then they kill themselves..Are food is farmed by corps who put antibiotics and hormones in your food,,no more small private farms..The government is more of a police state than ever!!They strip search you just to fly on a plane!Job security is a extinct idea!Children now take meds for discipline!Those are a few examples..

  • @mdelair420 oh no! our society has.. problems? well thats terrible, because we all know there werent any problems at all in the past.

  • @Skjoldvall Not surprised by your reply..People are in denile about the shit storm we have made..I only gave facts and it was not personal.Yet you come across so angry..

    Sorry if i offened you in any way..Sometimes the truth sucks i suppose???Did you have to worry about getting shot at school??I did not even have that cross my mind when i went to school. ..Your reply is very senical..I dont mind..I wish you and your family all the best,,godbless and peaceout

  • @mdelair420 I am not angry. I am completely and entirely aware of how fucked up our world is today. All I'm saying is it was just as fucked up 50 years ago. Thinking that our world didn't get problems til now is stupid and naive. You only have to go back a bit over a hundred years and you'd find people being hanged for stealing a loaf of bread. People being killed for disputing the word of god/the church/some other medieval, primitive crap. If anything, the world is LESS violent now.

  • @Skjoldvall True,,but now we are comparing apples with oranges.Speaking of days where they knew no better.WE know better,thats my point.Back then they had no knowledge of science like we do..They thought that a angry god gave them the plauge..Yes it was a time of monacharys,ect..Those times have nothing to do with the decline of modern civilavation..I was not speaking of the dark ages.I meant from 30 years ago till now..I know history,,We should learn from it,yet we ingnore it.GODBLESS UR FAMILY

  • @Ddubya77 Right on! Right on!

  • @Ddubya77 Well said brother..Thumbs up.....Peaceout

  • @Ddubya77 You speak for Many in Your Comment . Blue Faces All Around. Is it any wonder that Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber are Stars Today. People can't remove their Faces from Cell Phones long enough to see that this is all B.S. And detached is the Correct Term for Far to Many People Today. And Yes..it's Depressing .

  • @dbrew2u there was shit music in the 70's too, nothing has changed. Ever hear of disco? lol

  • @cbilljones disco was the 80's bro.

  • @xlxshanexlx are you trolling me or are you really that dumb? Like at least google something before you attempt to eat your foot in one bite, lmfao.

  • @cbilljones whatever dude.

  • @Ddubya77 =((((((!! so true!

  • @Ddubya77 80s music is depressing.

  • @munkeypaw1

    I was going to say you're stupid, then I realised you hail from the states, so you're probably classed as gifted over there, Have a nice day !

  • @munkeypaw1 Shame these guys were around before Rush.

  • Comment removed

  • @Floatles yeah the 70s were well depressing......real depressing era... makes me weep a little bit every time i think about them...especially disco.

  • this song is so emotional, especially the last verse...it really sums up those feelings of reflection and taking those close to you for granted...until they are gone...

  • his voice sounds like a girl??!O:

  • intense....

  • this song gives me chills... this band must be noticed!

  • wtf?? opeth inspired from this for sure!!! 10/10

  • Am I in another galactic???

    very good song =]

  • yes... could listen to more of this,

  • Anemonicus, just heard of them today...same way you did. What an awesome band!

  • I'm 35, I grew up on Rush, Black Sabbath, etc. How the hell did I never hear of this incredible band...!!! I'm totally stoked!

  • @harvestsoulfly I'm in the same boat.  Just found out about them today.

  • 30 sec intro guitar monster!

  • Jango brought me here. Had it set to Led Zeppelin and this amazing song popped up. Instant thumbs up.

  • When I was a kid I thought Metal was just a bunch of tuneless guitars and guys screaming... how wrong I was

  • @somthingillremember honestly, youre an idiot

  • Quite known in Sweden .....many friends had LP:s at this time

  • Solid drums work here....I really like it!

  • You can hear the foundations to every prior metal band in these songs.

  • Programm III Polish Radio - from Piotr Kaczkowski

    REMEMBER !!!!!

  • Love this song. Wish I could purchase it on Itunes, but not there.

  • Incredible, superb, the way music is supposed to be!

  • I've to find this album on CD.I tried to order it from independent record stores and the staff are dumbfounded because they never heard of Budgie.I heard that they are imports and are expensvie(Budgie albums).I heard that the MCA(first pressings)CDs are super rare,also the vinyl.

  • @lyle9 yeah all the ones at the shop i go are all imports and there about $40, each, i got the first one a few days ago, but it is worth it.

  • fckin` awesome solo....

  • i love this, reminds me of good times & tripping with good mates, mid 70's.

  • You just have to love the excellent bass!!

  • this is possibly the best band ever been on the planet!!! PERIOD!

  • Im transcribing this

    

  • @ShadyCrux

    Sweet me too...let me know how it goes man

    Napoleon Bona Parts next!

  • Great Band, I saw them perform just a couple of years ago it was a great night even without tony bourge.

    Get well Burke :)

  • One SUPERB song ..Thanks for the share ..greetzzzzzz gus

  • what I can say here? may be only this that I am mostly lonely man of the world

  • superrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr !

  • Its like the best niteclub music ive ever heard. Burke Shelley probally shits out peices of Frank Sanatra and Tony Bennet in every one of his stools. Also if Billie Holiday were alive she would be one jealous bitch. Really dont need to say a word about Tony Bourge and his genius but I just did anyhow.

  • awesome song!!!! fuuuuck! it's great proggy rock!!

  • These guys make me proud to be Welsh. Not much does anymore.

  • Whoaa... that was, as we used to say... heavy, man. This is quickly becoming one of my all time favorite bands.

  • Budgie are the best thing that ever came out of Wales!

  • I can never get enough of this song.

    Get well Burke!

  • I saw Budgie live in hollywood at the Whiskey a go go in 1978 at 19 yrs old.....what an awesome band! Still dig em to this day! Rock on!

  • Fantastic to hear this again :)

    

  • Was in SA when i first listened to Budgie. Want to say thanks to Mark Tothill for getting me to listen to them. This band is so good wish there were more live videos of them

  • They sure have alot of sound for a three man. I can dig!

  • Min your manner's or your dead ! *cough cough my childhood ._.

  • @rafaelb1026 I think that was everyone's. Well those fortunate enough to have both parents anyway...

  • You can definitely hear how this band influenced Soundgarden from this song.

  • the best

  • 6 motherfucker's

  • sweet memories of a pain filled youth still make me smile.

  • BUDGIE, DUST, ATOMIC ROOSTER. THIS IS THE SUMMARY OF MY CHILDHOOD!!!

  • @beebeef we need a club.

  • @movadoband Ok. Lets make one!!!! Because my friend we were blessed with this music FOREVER. When i listen to this music its like im stoned with the sweetest leaf of all time: Music Poetry. This divides us form animals and makes as bodies full of soul and emotions. The road goes ever on. Be blessed my brother / sister!!!

  • 70`s song.......21st century...BUDGIE still sound awesome......

  • Så jävla bra! Vad hände med Tony? Varför slutade han? Budgie var som bäst under Tony Bourge's gitarrrhänder

  • if you like this one check out Young Is A World ,also on you tube.It has a similar structure and vibe,plus great guitar.

  • I am so glad I got to see alot of these bands in the begining. I have memories that no one can possibly imagine.. I am glad that you yonger people are listening to thistuff cause it lets me know that I haven't lost my mind..I grew up in Cleveland , Ohio in the late 60's early 70's and every group came there..............and i was too! Got to seem them ALL!

  • I was introduced to Budgie by a teacher aid in H/S. We would drive around in his chevy Chevette, $T0#& out of our minds and just trip. Lived in S.A. TX. and listened to the Godfather all night long!!!!!! Canadian bands ruled back then. Leggs Diamond Rocked!!!!!!! ...... yeah they were'nt from canada but still!!!!!

  • @matalmike RUSH Bro?

  • I was introduced to Budgie by a teacher aid in H/S. We would drive around in his chevy Chevette, $T0#& out of our minds and just trip. Lived in S.A. TX. and listened to the Godfather all night long!!!!!! Canadian bands ruled back then.

  • what a great fucking song these guys earned my respect

  • this song depresses the fuck out of me, but i have to say it is a awesome song, the seagull guitar effect is brilliant.

  • Great song.

  • "Never turn your back on a friend"

  • His voice is really unique. It makes everything sound powerful and deeply melancholic at the same time. I just discovered them two years ago, bought "In for the kill" in a Thrift Store, and recommend them to everyone I know ever since (not always succesful!).

  • I learnt about budgie also from reading the book mustaine. Im glad this book introduced me to budgie

  • this reminds me of Golden eye. :D

  • First time I heard about Budgie was while reading Mustaine's biography

    just his reaction to their music made want to listen to it. lemme quote the man himself :

    "It was like nothing I'd ever heard";

    I had quite the same words in my mind when I listened to the first record

  • @Anemonicus same here.. but i just can't find a nice vinyl of  'em

  • @Riq3000 Never turn your back on a friend is the killer Album

  • @alantew i'm sure it is, but in want it on vinyl. and i can't fin it anywhere

  • @Riq3000 I've got it on vinyl and cd....Don't play the vinyl copy to rare

  • @Anemonicus Some people say to me "How influential can a band be if you never hear about them?"The thing though is that most musicians have heard of most of the creators of their genre.In reallity Budgie is more influential in the creation of metal than Metallica,besides the music Metallica influenced aside from a few were either mediocre or garbage; that is for the most part, there are exeptions. Metallica is a good band don't get me wrong, but in terms of influence not as much as people think.

  • @Anemonicus I found out about Budgie in Mustaine's biography too, man. Amazing band.

  • @Anemonicus f*ck,...me too man! I just read the book...Budgie is another kind o sh*t!

  • @Anemonicus same here amigo.

  • Comment removed

  • i first heard this track in the summer of 1976 in a friends car coming back from a Queen gig in Edinburgh i had never heard of Budgie untill then. I can remember being speachless after hearing it...... one of the most astonishing bits of music i have ever heard then and now.Thanks Burke what a talent you are.

  • dreaming

  • @PARWEL Well Said !

  • Tesknie za czasami w ktorych mnie nie bylo.

  • @AntyAnty1000 Caly czas daze do swoich celow tylko muzyka nie jest tak dobra jak kiedys.

  • how can anyone dislike this? this song is amazing

  • wspaniałe

  • @bazyliusz1234 yes wspaniale !

  • Without budgie, there would be no metallica, or megadeth

  • 6 people accidentally clicked the dislike button

  • I got nothing against Metallica, but I do think Budiges singers voice is soooo unique and excellent overall! I dont think anyone, Metallica or whomever, can seriously cover Budgies songs :)

  • I saw Tony Bourge play this live in 70's up close.AWESOME

  • budgie is cool as hell never turn your back on a friend is an album that is a must for any collection!
