Boston - Amanda - HQ

[Imnukingfutz1]

One of my favorite songs of my late teen years. I named my oldest daughter Amanda because of this song.

[crystalcube3]

I understand where Brad was coming from. I feel that way at times and think about checking out as well, even though it appears that there is no problem with me either..

[crystalcube3]

I miss Brad every time I listen to Boston or Beetle juice Definitely a loss.

[islandfocus2]

My favorite Boston song.  RIP Brad Delp..

[MrSailorcal]

What a voice and Brad was such a humble guy too

[crystalcube3]

Is there anything that Brad could not do?

[MusicbyBenjamin]

@crystalcube3 I don't know. I never knew him. I wish I had, though.

[ronclaros]

This song has the power to never get old.. just like Boston!

[deadblackop]

what i like about this music is when you here them live they dont suck

[pricla777]

Wow, he was awesome! Too bad he was so depressed... That's one of the pitfalls of genius, mental illness.

[pricla777]

He was so talented! He had one of the greatest voices in R&R. May he rest in peace. He must have been hurting pretty bad...

[1cascarin]

@pricla777 so sad

[iammusictoo]

To those calling Brad a coward, I have this to say: BITE ME! You have no idea what was going through his mind. I don't agree with suicide, but walk a mile in his shoes.....nuff said.

[missmurder84]

I was named after this song! <3 It was either going to be this or the last song of the album HollyAnn. ahah Clearly my father is a giant Boston fan. As i am now. =]

[xaitienle]

nice song. tks for up

[L0vem31]

[MusicbyBenjamin]

@45020102 That's funny!

[GBeret83]

My first concert was in 1976. I saw the Doobie Brothers open for Boston when they were touring behind their first album in Lexington, Ky. When Rupp Arena was literally brand new, and had just opened it's doors!! That takes me back a spell. Boston is awesome live!! Sure miss Brad!!

[camp168]

Awesome! Takes me back to easier days....High School....great music....RIP Bradley!

[Manda23Leigh]

I'm named after this song too!



[Viazcan03]

Does the thumbs up count if there is a girl whom you still think about, even though she broke your heart?

[81overon]

I wish you peace, Brad. Wish I could sing like that,

[nchwa]

RIP, Brad...

[wdharvey1]

Boston: Masters of the Power Ballad. 'nuff said.

[AK47Amanda]

I was also named after this song and have fond memories growing up of my dad singing it to me throughout my life. Always have been a huge Boston fan!

[SubjectDylan]

the top names i have wanted to name my daughter when if i have one: 1. Eleanor 2. Amanda

 3. Zoey 4. Michelle 5. Marianne

[IRAF06]

Thumbs up if there is an Amanda in your life you think about when you hear this song

[TheSkastere]

@IRAF06 thumbs shit if you have a crush with some samantha slut.....

[BlueOvalHero]

@IRAF06 yep!

[maragirl201]

my cousins dad named his daughter Amanda, because it was her dads favorite song and it meant something to him!

[liverpoolfan7774]

cochi t acuerdas viejos tiempos

[jrock2264]

God bless you, Brad. See you when I get there....

[johncates812]

Was this recorded with a toaster?

[blackhumanity103]

reconcilition is awesome! Way to go Amanda...my dad is gone and I wish to speak to hium every day

[rodristereo]

Brad Delp one of the great voice in the history of rock... R.I.P

[wdharvey1]

@rodristereo I didn't know he had died. I just looked it up on wikipedia, thanks to your post....we lost one of our best male tenors next to Steve Perry....

[jk228f]

bloodapple, I am soooo glad you now know your Dad. I am soooo sorry, however, for all the awesome times you both missed in your growing up.

My daughter is now 14, and I'm so thankful for all the time I DID spend with her while she was 4... 5... 6... and up unitl now, as I still am with her as much as possible. Cuz, I know it won't be long..... That time, and this time is still priceless to me--and her--and you can never get that back.

Rock on, Amanda !!

[shane4814]

you know what the funny fucking thing is that i had a crush on 2 girls named amanda, I was in the store one time and, they girl that i liked that worked at the store happen to be named amanda, as she was walking by this song happen to be playing.

[ScrapMetalBomb]

hOW DOES A DUDE WHO SINGS THE MOST INSPIRATIONAL music ever written kill himself?? I feel like I wish I could tell the guy how much he meant to people....I guess that aint happen'in.

[enriquez273]

i love this band...

[angelrocker1977]

el nombre y la cancion son algo mas que elegante......

[gixmar]

if u love this music check WORK OF ART THE GREAT FALL

[JaphethX]

very touchful feelling, and i love this song since i was teenager

[Wallylex]

It's funny how people now say that this is great music and all that... I love this song, don't get me wrong, but Boston, alongside Journey, were the quintessential corporate rock bands of the 70s and 80s. And now they're held as paragons of great music. Do you think 30 years from now people will say the same about that Bieber guy and that Gaga Lady?

[fixmeplz]

@Wallylex You have no clue. Back then there was no 'corporate' music, these guys cut it and made music THEY wanted to, not what was handed to them. Times have changed alot. Music like this is rare unless you hit smaller clubs and see TRUE emotion spilled on the stage.

[poniran]

awesome singer...rip Brad

[sticher314]

this album was groundbreaking if you were around in the 80s...this and 5150 by van halen were mindblowing. still are.

[manda9317]

my name is amanda toooooo

[ANeeley23]

wow i was named after this also it is one of my favorites

[tampikosita]

yo.keria.ponerle.a.mi.hija.Ama­nda.solo.por.esta-cancion.es.r­eamente.hermosa

[krowbarr13820]

[marshallmanwayne]

Thats right! Brad was special.I think everybody is in their own way.Music is a gift from god!-Nobody can take that from you.Miss you brad.-Peace.Marshallmanwayne.

[ACrackInTheWall2006]

I really miss you Brad : (

[GoFriedDough]

And the funny thing I'm am seriously crushing over a girl named Amanda

[realaussiestig]

@GoFriedDough me too

[Tsadykiaf]

Meu deus,A música é muito boa estava aqui viajando quando me dei conta de que uma (MALDITA SEJA) BANDA DE FORRÓ TAL DE CALCINHA PRETA(MIL VEZES MALDITOS), fizeram uma versão desta música.

Mas Sim que linda música.

[adikzsayo]

and this is one of the reasons why I am so in love with music..with these kind of songs...pure and true feelings..

[paiste009]

he is john? the singer??

[alinn71]

dont question it...you will never find the answer..sometimes it seems like there is no way out and it hits you, alcohol and drugs induce the last shot and finally you are out...RIP..

[deadendkid1968]

To bad about Bradly Delp...Ive met Fran Cosmo...big asshole...he needs to hang it up...

[sparson77]

the most sad and heartbreaking thing in the world is a sweet soul giving up, thinking the world is better off without them... don't give up,, give it a day or two... let a smile or the touch of a hand fill you with hope... there are people that have lost loved ones to depression and all we are left with is "what could we have done?"

[TheStoner1969]

20 people suck and don't know shit about classic rock!

[TheOneCalledTimmy]

Great story. Brad Delp was the best

[MandyT93]

My name is Amanda :) I love my name and my ex used to sing it to me all the time :( but I wish that my future husband will sing it to me in my wedding... and will actually mean it ... beautiful song

[angelicinspiration1]

COULD SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN THE MEANING, AND HISTORY OF THIS SONG; WHAT INSPIRED IT...........

[angelicinspiration1]

THIS I THE MOST ROMANTIC AND BEAUTIFUL SONG!!!

[leegeorge8133]

This song is one of my long time favorite classic song and I have also name my daugther after this song and she is coming to 18 soon.

[HEAVYMETALGODS86feb9]

@leegeorge8133 don't let date cowards asshole jerks they have no balls of being a true man

[jermgoans]

i love boston....but what a selfish prick. taking our own life is the ultimate cop out...please stop with the excuses for this guy. the pussification of the human race in plain view. i hear lots of excuses.....too many. instead of feeling bad for this idiot how bout you feel bad for his family and bandmates. you people make me sick

[HeRacesTheSun]

@jermgoans I feel bad mostly for you and your lack of compassion and empathy for a human suffering so greatly that he needs to take his own life, may love and understanding find it's way into your heart as you may really need it one day yourself, and your bitterness is what can make people sick...

[magpieeye]

@jermgoans Hey, that's the awful thing about depression...you suffer in silence and YOU DO SUFFER! Have a some compassion

[tall32guy]

I feel bad for Brad as well, and can't imagine the pain he was going through that caused him to end his life. I also find this the most moving song of Boston's and my favorite of theirs. :):)

[DELL15ish]

really love this song,i feel sad for brad delp

[DELL15ish]

really love this song

[amandaNO457]

Great title for a song :)

[RAWHEADMIKE]

RIP BRAD

[mrsblack97]

I was named after this song! I found it in the suggestions and had to hear the reason why my name is Amanda :)

[thadeous65]

I am a big fan of Boston. BUT this video is kind of lame. Totally out of key. I know they can do better.

[thadeous65]

Good Lord...... This is aweful. I b;ame the recording. Must be a cheap ass device. Nice try but not there dude.

[Bloodapple125]

I was named for this song. I grew up not knowing my dad and always dreamed that he had named me after this song. When I finally met him and found out that's actually what he did it helped us to realize that the past is the past and that he is my dad no matter what and that the love he feels for me now is the same when he played this song for me at my birth. Literally Boston. Not only did this song save my Dad and I's relationship but it was the first one that ever reached my ears.

[jackdav34]

@Bloodapple125 That is an incredible story. Thx for sharing:)

[fordlord]

thefordlord@yahoo.com-That's very cool!I named my second daughter after this song(my first daughter was going to be hollyann but didn't work out)this is my all-time favorite band and i still miss brad delp terribly!!!!!!!

R.I.P brad!

[405manda]

This song is the reason for my name : )

[mandy6991]

@405manda Me too!!!

[HeRacesTheSun]

@405manda Did it take you by surprise and make you realize Amanda? What a beautiful song to be named after, thanks for sharing... : )

[amandadriver1]

@405manda This is the reason for mine as well...that's awesome!!! My dad loved this song SOO much he named me Amanda...Im 35 whats your age.lol

[boscolo3rd]

@405manda You parents didn't tell you, but they probably "made" you to this song.

[bigbabygurl810]

@405manda  ME TOOO!!!!

[randommagnum]

@939Socket These dudes I use to work with and I would sit and make up stuff like that to this song all day...

I'm gonna take you by surprise, and make you realize, Amanda..

I'm gonna throw you on the ground, and make you kiss my clown, Amanda...

I'm going to grab you by the hair, and ram you derriere, Amanda...

[StephenHardyMusic]

He never lost his voice

[iamchris15]

i love this music!!

[Larryc72]

Chilling. Goose bumps on my arms,and hair standing up on the back of my neck. Brad had about the greatest voice in rock and I miss it.

[alinn71]

RIP..

[SilverWar1]

[angelicinspiration1]

[echo1814]

Damn it Brad!!You still are the best!!

[echo1814]

[echo1814]

The problem with suicide is that it can and usually does cause incredible pain for the f
