Be prepared to have your mind blown by these incredibly talented performers & also a beautiful song..Steam Powered Giraffe 🦒 "Honeybee" (Official Music Video A MUST!!) ❤

Thank you and thanks to all those who recommended it. Clearly I need to get more into BOC!

First time commenting. Donald "Buck Dharma" Roeser wrote, sang and plays the guitar parts on this dreamy sound-scape about a late night encounter with a vampiress. "One look in the mirror told me so" tips it off. And it's such a clever song, too. A full verse followed by a double chorus, anchored by the "I love the night" hook, into a beautiful solo, then a half verse/half chorus, followed by the "I love the night" hook outro. It's brilliant and unique. Glad you loved it.

I see what you did there.

You should listen to "Then Came the Last Days of May". Probably my favorite BOC song.

Thank you so much for featuring this incredible song! I already knew you would just love it..🥂🧡🎶

Some live versions have extra lyrics that darken and further shroud the song in mystery.

This Is One Of My Fav's By BOC Glad You Liked It & Thanks For Doing It.

You hit the nail on the head in your assessment of the group. Can’t place them in any one category as they are all over the place. With all members writing and singing, every song sounds different.

Nice reaction Ms. Maggie! Yes, Each BÖC album has its own character and the songs comprising the catalog are quite different. Don “Buck Dharma” Roeser, a Master of guitar, delivers an amazing vocal once again. The harmonies BÖC could create are marvelous as each of the five had lead vocals in their catalog. The members, separately for the most part played gigs in their formative years in dances with surf music and doo-wop being the popular fare of those days and built a solid foundation for harmonies. You might enjoy an example of this by reacting to such an example of the Öyster Boys rendition of the Ronettes classic “Be My Baby” as one doesn’t often hear how well the song works with male harmonies?! Don Roeser also sings a lovely tune by the late great Allen Lanier who played keys and guitar for about thirty years since the band formed. “Astronomy” performed live would make an excellent reaction as well Ms. Maggie. Nearly all live performances today work off a click track to coordinate backing tracks, effects, etc. BÖC is an musical taste best experienced live, for they utilize tempo to magnificent emotive effect with retardando and accelerando masterfully performed! A staple of opera, jazz, and blues it has but vanished from rock and pop of the digital age. I’ve seen BÖC perform across five decades and they brought it without shortcuts whether in arenas, theaters or small clubs! In addition to his song “(Don’t Fear) the Reaper”, Donald Roeser also delivers lead vocals on “Burning for You”, “The Vigil”, and “Perfect Water” to name a few of the more popular. 💪🏻🎸🎤🎶🫶🏻

BOC, as they were known, was one of the best of the best IMO

Such a GREAT band with so many wonderful songs.

One of my favorites, such a great late night song.

One of the best rock-metal band🤘

Certain tunes leave a deeper mark than others. I Love the Night takes me to longing for a time and a woman in late 1983. We loved this song and the shared memories to which it is branded. But every morning she slipped away like those magic nights evaporated into dawn and turned to her real world. 😢

Since the first time I heard this when this album was released this has been the song to my life because I do so love the night. Blue Oyster Cult has a very deep catalog of great songs. I saw the four times back in the '70s and early '80s. They were a great band live too.

Thinking man's heavy metal

Wow, it's been so long since I've heard this. I liked the album so much, I bought a second copy, waiting for the first one to wear out, haha. I still have that second wrapped album. BOC was such a great band. I remember so well, seeing them in 1977. It wasn't just a concert, it was a show.... and it was the most fantastic light show I ever saw. There were 4 giant mirror balls hanging in the rafters of the arena and they fired their lasers at them and it was literally raining light. It was truly one of the top 3 concerts on my all-time list. Thanks for the memories.

What a great surreal sound it has and it sounds like you are walking the in the night ..That album cover is the best ,my fav of all of them ,it looks like they are time travelers in the 1800s and laser beams were used to give it a bizarre effect and they used lasers in their shows also that attracted concern from the US Gov about the possibility of it blinding attendees..

It looks as if you have not been introduced to Kansas. The logical place to start, where most people have started with Kansas, is Carry On Wayward Son. I have different favorite songs than most, but this is the song that started their mainstream airplay.

Maggie, BOC is one of the most underrated bands of all time, they have a very diverse catalog and a great mix of rockers, epics, ballads like you just heard and just plain great rock songs. The album this comes from, Specters, is amazing, for more from it, try their atmospheric classic, Nosferatu, their ode to vampires. They belong in the RR HoF, like 3 decades ago! Enjoy. 🎵🎸🎤🎸🎹🎶

Debate has been is she a vampire or a ghost? Nosferatu is for sure vampire based on the very old silent film Nosferatu

Truly a beautiful song. That guitar playing is not from this world.

I KNEW IT, I knew it, I Knew you would like this song!🥰

Thanks! This was not in the original set in the Twitch stream but was added by popular demand in the Chat. And they were so right! Loved your reaction and analysis! 🌃

Thank YOU!! 🤗💖

You need to hear Pink Floyd Live "Run Like Hell"

You should listen to their song "She's As Beautiful As A Foot" from their debut album. It's hauntingly beautiful too.

There are so many outstanding songs by BOC. Nesferatu is interesting in context. It's also a vampire song.

Nosferatu gives me chills!

I get some of the weirdest looks when im asked who my fav classic rocks bands are. And my answer is always Blue Oyster Cult and Boston. 2 completely different vibes. But i dont care. Blue Oyster Cult brings chills and strong emotions.

if only a vampiric experience would be like this. most are brutal and violent.

I've always liked this even better than Reaper. The multi-layered guitar tracks..... If you like their "journey through the cosmos" stuff, the studio version of their 1974 "Astronomy" will give you that 1-way ticket. Eric Bloom is vocalist on that one, and although he sang most of their "hard as nails" stuff in their early days, that track was an exception.

Definitely different than Godzilla! But another monster song....She's a Vampire!..and he joins her....BOC can play anything from a smooth ballads like this from Buck Dharma, a breezy but eerie love song like Don't Fear the Reaper, to progy epics like Astronomy, to flat out ballls to the Wall rockers like Cities on Flame and Dominance and Submission..and their harmonies are always top shelf..Do more BOC!!!

Thanks for doing this song. Deep Deep Cut. One of my top favs of theirs. Please continue to explore BOC.

Their early records were sort of muddy sounding, meant to recreate a "live" sound (read: cheap production costs). Starting with the Agents of Fortune album, they came out with a much cleaner sound and found much greater commercial success.

Love this song. Shot Mike o7

This is maybe a vampire song from one of my favorite bands. BOC have so many different music styles just for a heavy metal/hardrock band. Love it. By the way: Holy cheese muffins? I prefer blueberry chocolate ones ;-)

Definitely a vampire love song. She had to be invited in and the only thing a mirror would tell you in one look is that you don't have a reflection.

Check out light years of love

seeing you like old music listen to DOLLI AND THE LUXE - ROCK VS OPERA

Please listen to fly away on the wings of the wind by Diana Ankudinova

whats not to like ! ?

what is not to like about the B O C !

Such a great tune. This band has sooo much talent and range. the ONE thing...is vocals are NOT top notch. And thats from a diehard fan. If they had a great singer everyone would know about them, of that I'm sure.
