AMERICA and THE EAGLES - - - ALWAYS, ALWAYS!! THESE TWO GROUPS CANNOT BE TOPPED IN ANY ERA OF ANY KIND OF MUSIC!!
An under appreciated song in my opinion
I'm glad these talented blokes are still making music!

Rarely do you hear the words 'blokes' and 'America' in the same thread....
love love love this old song...
I love when Gerry does the hand drop off the guitar during the solo😍🎸🎶
America what a Great band and still touring and making Great music. And I also believe so overlooked by the industry. I still have my America tour shirt that Dewey and Gerry signed when they came to Peoria and played at a riverfront gig. Keep Rocking America and Thank You.
This song brings back memories for me because my dad and I used to sing together everytime it played on the radio either at our house or on vacation down the cape, miss u so much dad. Hope u are hearing this song in heaven I am singing it now in your memory love u
Absolutely LOVE these guys! Cannot wait to see them again this year. Especially since it is their 50th Anniversary Tour! But I have a question. Has anyone else noticed that on the songs that Dewey sings, Gerry always seems to scrunches himself way down when he is singing/playing guitar. It is almost like he is trying to make himself shorter than Dewey? I'm afraid he is going to fall one day. But he never does it when he sings.
America is my favorite group this song and you can do magic my dad and I always sang along with when either song was played on the radio at our house or on vacation down the Cape our 🎤 were pens. Dad we had a such a blast together with these songs always will remember it.I hope u are resting in Peace we the family miss you a lot love you always my wonderful dad.
How nice to hear a band that gets better and better over time. May God always bless these talents, greetings from Áustria 🇦🇹 🇧🇷
Timeless harmonies ... and the boys can still rock out with some nifty lead guitar ... great song!

You must be lost in a faraway land I searched forever your footprints in the sand I feel you need me, I have to answer That desperate call that I do not understand A burning bridge, a lonely highway Another dark night thinking alone What could've happened, am I just dreaming It doesn't matter but there's one thing that I know If I could make it to the border If I could make it to the coast If I could make it to the border I'd be in the arms of the girl I love the most Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do Make it to the border So on and on I keep on running To make the border before the light Just one more river, then I can make it Again you'll be in my arms tonight

Exceptional guitarists, both acoustic and electric. I can't imagine what it would have been like to see them when all 3 were in the band. And Dan Peek, IMO, was the best guitarist of them all! Imagine that. RIP Dan Peek
Thanks for posting this great concert video! America is even better live! Keep on Rockin'!
Love this
I could not get enough of this song when it first came out. Classic song from a classic group !!
My all-time favorite AMEICA song.....NEVER GETS OLD !!!!

Mine too-- I went about 15 years without hearing it. Then heard it twice on two different radio stations in 1999--both while traveling in NW Ohio.

Oh man do they have so many greater songs. None of them became "hits" either. Have you heard any of their newer material?
studio version entered Billboard June 18, 1983 ..reached #33
Great Music with Stil!! 🙋💜🇩🇪
without words,the best of that decade.

Marvelous simply Marvelous!!!

Build that wall stop trafficking
Never heard this song from this popular band
family a Marine my brother the tour my brother a tour a brother thank you my team 55 years a brother to family the boots my team
America stole the hook for this song from me, which if you ask me is the whole song. I gave it to a girl who was good friends with them at a B.M.I. song pitch in Hollywood, and six months later it was on the radio! They never gave me any credit, which stinks, but at least people got to hear it. True story!!!

BMI? Body Mass Index?
The best live version. Sad the sound quality isn’t up to match.
The group America stole this song from me many years ago! I wrote the chorus part and left it with a girl who said she was friends with the group "America". Six moths later I was driving in my car when I heard a song that sounded familiar. Than I realized it was mine! They never fessed up and threatened to sick their lawyer on me for bothering them and Capitol Records.
One great song after another. Did they ever write a poor song?? I don't think so!
let's burn it
It's a bit empty without the ochestral backing and saxophone solo in the original studio version.

It would have been interesting to see which version would have fared better .... the original or the Gerry Beckley Guitar riff....... ! : )
