America -- Daisy Jane (Live)

[octopibingo]

Is it coincidence or result of an agreement that Janet Jackson's "Let's Wait Awhile" uses this exact tune?

I know she used the opening of "Ventura Highway" in another song. Anybody know?

[THeMaskedBlogCritic]

@octopibingo Probably one of her producers is an America fan.

[sunlife]

[Talartha]

.....LOVE this song! I love ALL their music, GREAT BAND!! Thanks for sharing... ;)

[stopglobalswarming]

This sounds somewhat like Phil Collins/Genesis. Maybe they influenced P.C.

[tplayer73]

Wow! I'm glad to see others who love this song as much as I do! Great band! Great song!

[bg0821]

I heard this song on the radio yesterday and haven't heard it for a long time and didnt know who it was. found out now great song nice lyrics.

[Spankeedoodle]

Janet Jackson sampled this track in ''let's wait a while''

[cathode1990]

@Spankeedoodle Yes /Exactly -- She stole the entire melody for the beginning of her song ---Nobody said a thing as far as I know

[nandusell]

[Treaty4]

They still have what it takes. Daisy Jane is one beautiful song.

[Shimmeringsmiley]

Great song, great band, great time for music!!!

[1969pontiac1]

Thanks for sharing, I grew up in the 70s. Maybe the best time of all. I have the 8 track that America had out. My favorite group by far. I think Daisy loves me.

[SanDiegoRusticHome]

AM Awesome. Does she really love me... I think ???

I Dig America

[torpedoboy4]

janet janet janet. borrower? it's obvious to me.

[Continu2]

She also borrowed Ventura Highway

[LisaMcIntosh007]

Quote: I guess they don't sing enough about bitches and whores to suit you....huh? LOL!! Right on!!!! These guys are classics and if you don't like them, go away and listen to somebody else!

[leopoldmozart]

Saw them at Disneyland about 3 years ago. They were fantastic. I think they played Lonely People. I miss Dan Peek.

[54spiritedwill54]

Great song and i bet the live show was spectacular.

[bunchie1966]

Is bpc1960 a musician? I very much doubt it. If he was, he wouldn't talk such piffle.

[bpc1960]

hey fuckmaster,. they could sing about the paint drying and they would still suck!!

[bpc1960]

these guys sucked in the 70s and they suck now

[johanna131313]

ma chansson prefere guy

[goldeneaglevideo]

America has never stopped touring for over 30 years 150 concerts internationally!! Truly an amazing group!! And great guys to boot! I have met them and they do really love their fans! They sound as good orbetter than ever!

[sungahid]

do you that this songs piano intro was the basis of Janet Jackson's Let's Wait Awhile?

[ErdalYildizFan]

Yeah thats true,and not only the Piano Intro in my eyes! I bought for some years a best of Album from America,and when i heard this Song(it was the first time) i thought this Sounds like Janet`s Song,and when he started to sing i thought that he will sing now:"There`s something i want to tell you...";-)

[Cherstars]

SUNGAHID, I have always thought JANET JACKSON stole that from them, good point, I prefer the original, don't like this live performance.

[kimmyann1]

does America still tour? I love to see a live performance.

[jessesgirl1956]

This is a very beautiful and sweet song. America just keeps getting better!

[ferdzthelover]

my favorite song parati ko itong kinanta kapag naggigitara ako, magaling na pangharana,siguradong mapaihi mo yung chicks ok ba chong.

[reginalyn]

America and Chicago together would be a great show. Lots of great old tunes.

[sick70s]

Touring togather this Summer.....:)

[shoneyjr]

America and Chicago on tour this summer; should be a great time for the old songs and warm memories.

[valterjose]

yes....

[voddosnipper]

killerinstinctmy fucking ass!anyway thanks a fuckload effnyc

[benniebenbenny]

Although not considered America's best song, it's my favourite simply because of its pensive, sweet, and longing (and haunting) melody. Great tune!

[bpc1960]

longing alright.........painfully long!!

[theymademedoit333]

GO AMERICA! Superb band! My dads seeing them in Cambridge this week!

[FELICIA1972]

AMERICA=MELODIC GENIUS

and yes, georgiegirl gerry is soooo yummy i just wanna eat him with a spoon!

[georgiegirl1]

I love this song...and Gerry Beckley is so cute.

[mtrowest]

I hope Janet Jackson thanked them when she stole this for Let's wait a while...

[sterlinged]

My favorite America song... Thanks for sharing! Wish they still made music like this!!!

[mnparrothead]

I didn't have a daughter to name Daisy Jane, so I that's what I named my dog. Love that song!

[HRHDevesh]

The 70s were something else. And ofcourse, you had America!

[Oceanshearts]

"Thank you Daisy." Gerry Beckley

[belairhotrod]

Great song and i bet the live show was spectacular.

[krelbar]

Favorite song from childhood...It brings me back to 6 years old, going to Carol's Hamburgers in Leominster Mass. Seemed to be on the radio all the time...
