Big Star - "September Gurls"

[Asburyfun]

Good God! A perfect song.....!

[Tuzotonic]

One of the most perfect songs ever made.Pure power pop genius.

[kurssx1943]

one of the all time song highs!

[calebandnelson]

@OliviaaHopee You're right. It was ranked 178th in the Rolling Stone's "Top 500 songs of All TIme.

[OliviaaHopee]

This wasn't the 178th top song of 1974.

[TheMaplestoryGuide]

this song sucks, joe satriani can play so much beter than these commie faggots.

[fledgehog]

dem sus chords

[justawful]

The best damn song, yet so few people have heard it.

[kirkpimp]

How this was not a top 10 hit at the time just boggles my mind. In my opinion, this may be the most "perfect" pop song ever written.

[Nostams]

@kirkpimp No truer words my friend. What a phenomenal pop/rock classic. Oddly enough I heard the Bangles cover it, but had no idea that Big Star/Alex penned it. What a gem!

[TurnItBlueToYou1]

Sleep well, Alex & Chris.

[morocanland]

i do anything to go back in time and live the 70's i hate the 21century everybody busy even the music

[MozesDackerman39]

Dnload the audio from this track at tubepull doht cohm.

[dashofchutmeg]

The greatest injustice is their label's shitty distribution that failed this band's talent. They should have been huge.

[instantdeath99]

@dashofchutmeg Couldn't agree more. Their first two albums are full of what should have been smash hits.

[jasoninnocentive]

My favourite song ever, always try to get my friends into this band...

[juices1234]

1974. Holy shit. 35 years later and still nothing compares to it. This band deserved so much more in commercial success. They will always be the greatest that never was.

[caesardas1]

Big Star may not have been chart successes but who gives a damn. they are superstars.

[scottieboy2008]

December boys got it bad

[csrhiatt]

It's a screwed up world where this song didn't reach number 1 and we consider Justin Bieber to be a credible pop artist

[guspopov]

rest in peace alex, rock in peace...

[snazyjazz]

[w9j15g]

The Bangles covered this back in the mid-1980's. I've long called them the Bang Gurls.

RIP Alex.

[PieceofMindmusic]

cant tell you how many times ive cried over a girl to this song...just one girl over this last week :p

[psychill22]

@PieceofMindmusic Oh yeah man, this song is about how I feel for every girl I've ever loved that has left me.

[manwithnoname123]

sigh...

[raponte1955]

@whatblah43 good to know you liked it. This is the number 1 song that Rollingstone missed on his top 100 songs!

[hairowen]

[TimmytheGeek2009]

[Danman917]

[scohan44]

Goodbye Alex - you songs have given me some of the most incredible highs of my life. Rest in peace.

[jeromestoky8]

I totally agree.

Radio City will remain of one my favourite records ever... RIP Alex.

[emwprops]

~ Beautiful. Thanks, Alex & co.

[NickCC23]

RIP Alex Chilton

[basalt66]

The greatest song ever written

[presto35]

I remember buying this two-album-on-one CD before even hearing a note ... mainly due to the abundance of critical applause I've read in various sources. You know what? The risk was definitely worth it - not a bad song on #1 Record or Radio City - September Gurls is proof positive!

[jeromestoky8]

A hidden golden pop-song. Glad you enjoyed it.

[samswank]

Why this band was never huge, I'll never know.

[jeromestoky8]

Kinda 70's Velvet phenomena ?

Thx for the comment !

[mailtrap22]

The song that launched 1,000 bands.
