More Than a Feeling

Let's do it.

50 years ago, in the late summer, fall of 1976, radio fell in love with the debut album from the band Boston and their lead single, More Than a Feeling.

It was rock music, yet it sounded really different than most other rock music that was out.

They used a lot of the Hammond organ, and I love Hammond organ.

I mean, they were always on the radio.

They were.

More Than a Feeling peaked at number five on Billboard Hot 100, Christmas Day 1976.

It's number 212 on Rolling Stone magazine's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.

I closed my eyes and I slipped away.

It's more than a feeling.

More than a feeling.

When I hear that old song they used to play.

More than a feeling.

And I begin dreaming.

More than a feeling.

Then I see Marianne walk away.

But he's been a part of many other projects over the years, which we'll get into, I'm sure.

His first song is More Than a Feeling by Boston off the 1976 album Boston.

You're listening to Three Song Stories.

where's that song taking you back to

I can't listen to the words.

I don't know.

it's like more it's like it's like the lyric and i'm it's like more than a feeling when i hear that old song like it it's literally the chorus yeah i guess that's

what it says right

It used to take me about 50 minutes to get to work and back.

And one of the songs is More Than a Feeling by the Boston Band.

So I didn't know why I was playing it to myself at the time, but maybe, just maybe, it's just a possibility.

The song, I was attracted to the song because I wanted to affirm my contact was just more than emotions, that there was something more to it.

More Than a Feeling was recorded by Boston.

And just a reminder, my playlist is crazy.

It goes from Miley Cyrus' Party in the USA to Madonna, Boston's More Than a Feeling, and a bunch of other songs that prove that decades of DJ credibility can disappear pretty quickly.

So give the episode another listen, check out the playlist, and most importantly, tell us your guilty pleasure.

I said the sunlight images.

Call 721-WIHZ and let me know what you wanna hear.

My nominee for the last song of the night is More Than a Feeling by Boston.

Tom Scholz has more talent in his little finger than the dang Beastie Boys have combined.

Yeah, what kind of burnout still listens to Boston in 1992?
