Excuse me, I'm not from your first world or English speaking, but as an old musician I will tell you that Brad Delp has always been one of the best Rock singers in history and John Lawton one of the best Hard Rock expressionists. His big problem is having been superior to other established vocalists in famous bands in the music industry, the hypocrisy of the bourgeois Punk fashion and the aesthetic and sound dictatorship of the 80's destabilized and harmed the bands of these wonderful singers, in the case of Staley it was the unique of the hateful Grunge good to listen to, honestly He deserved to be in a better and good heavy band, in my opinion, the Kurt Cubain era contributed more in visual digitalization and was extremely disposable musically. Regarding Delp and Lawton, my heart knows that they have never been underestimated, rather they have been envied.

@@rafaeldossantos4791 What I mean by underrated is when supposed “experts” on the subject never bring up his name when talking about the best vocalists. Even the casual rock fan knows Robert Plant was the lead vocalist for Led Zeppelin and Freddy Mercury was the lead vocalist for Queen. Although Boston didn’t have quite the catalog of songs of either, very few could even tell you Brad Delp was Boston’s vocalist. I know that Boston isn’t as popular as either, but Boston’s debut album has had more airplay on radio than any album in the history of rock. And EVERY Boston song that Brad sang was a vocal masterpiece. But real fans of rock music such as yourself do indeed know the truth. I also kinda get your comments about Layne but Alice In Chains is a very highly respected band despite being a Grunge band. Their album Dirt is widely regarded as a masterpiece in rock history.

@@rafaeldossantos4791 You say you don’t live in the US. Drug addiction was a main component of most Grunge music. Layne Staley’s drug use was notorious. Alice In Chains masterpiece album Dirt was mainly songs written about drug addiction. Kurt Cobain of Nirvana, widely regarded as the king of Grunge was also a notorious drug user. These musicians weren’t models dressed like lumberjacks. Most of them were never considered sex symbols. They dressed like they did because of where they were from. Grunge was based in Seattle, Washington in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. This was how most people dressed that lived there. Also the Grunge era followed the hair metal trend that dominated American music during much of the 1980s and they wanted to distinguish themselves from that era and briefly took rock music in a new direction. Their songs were mainly about drug addiction, loneliness and being outcasts where most 80s music revolved around sex and partying. Grunge was the exact polar opposite of hair band pop metal music. Popular music in the United States is usually influenced by the mood and feelings of the young generation. To be brutally honest, the 1980s was the last period of optimism in the United States. It has steadily gone downhill since then. I’m 55 and I feel sorry for the youth of today. What we called the American dream is basically out of reach to most young people today. They have been brainwashed into believing our country is evil and needs to be destroyed. They will eventually vote in more socialism and eventually communism at which point the United States will cease to exist.

Approaching his house with Wendy I could hear them playing and wanted to sit there for hours to listen. I also lived and grew up in Danvers. He was so handsome when he was a young man with such great talent even then. He became even more handsome as he got older. I thought...he's going places, and he certainly did. I cried when I heard we lost him. He is sorely missed by all that he touched with his music and his love for life. He lived it well. We miss you!

Amazing that a rock song written almost 50 years ago, can still be so moving and inspiring. The songwriting, tone, musicianship, harmonies, and vocals were way ahead of its time. And for all this to be done by two young men in their makeshift recording studio in a downstairs residential basement blows my mind. First two albums were runaway hits!

I'm in RI, 64 years old, here's what changed around the late 70's, the production of the first albums of Boston, Foreigner, and Kansas was just so sharp, so crisp...you listen to every song on Foreigner's first album, they are incredible songs...heck, even Styx was real musicians, talented musicians making real quality music. Check out "crystal ball" live by Styx back in the day, presently, I've seen Halestorm live four times, Lzzy without a doubt is queen of female vocals, better than Benatar and slightly better than Ann Wilson in her prime, they kick ass.👍💣🔥

This singer was one of the greats and you can watch him sing and you know he was a really good guy. He certainly loved his music and loved singing. So tragic when a great person with so much talent takes his life. We all are at a loss for his voice is gone forever but his memory always appears when I hear this song and the many other vocals he was part of.

J’ai une ame solitaire. I am a lonely soul,

When Tom Schultz starts to play the Pipe Organ , that's something special .

One of the GREATEST bands of all time...wow.....I mean WOW!!! THANK GOD I got to grow up in this era....ABSOLUTELY NO music today can touch the 70s into the early 80s music... NONE!!!

Boston should have been in the hall of fame a hundred times over. Their ability to harmonize the way they did was simply beautiful to listen to. Brad you are missed by millions and will never be forgotten!!

Agreed! The HOF is really the HOS......Hall of Shame! Grand Funk Railroad has been around longer than Boston, and I think was the best hard rock band that ever came out of America. They're not in either. We should start a real hall of fame somewhere.....

All the vocal harmonies on the record were all brad. Live they used a harmonizer on brads voice. I believe Tom Scholz designed and built it. Tom's tone was the frequency at which his wah was hardwired to.

Hall of Shit! Boston doesn't need their endorsement

Emotional overload. It comes straight from the heart. Beautiful song I'll never forget since my childhood.

When Boston hit the airways for the first time, we here in South Africa had no idea what the members looked like, but oh boy! ... Bradley's voice just knocked us all over. Been a fan ever since and was devastated when I learnt of Brad's sad demise. RIP Bro. Thank you for having brought so much joy and happiness to my life, and to many millions more.

Beautiful song, beautiful voice! RIP Brad! Boston and Journey are the best, at least for me. Great songs, great musicians and extraordinary singers. ❤️

I never EVER had hair that thick. Nearly as impressive as his fabulous vocals....

Love him ❤ Brad Delp WAS BOSTON he's the reason I listened and bought all the albums RIP 🙏 🕊 ☮ 😌

Brad was singing about himself and where he felt like he was with life in this song. RIP brad, you are no longer a lonely soul.

Listening to this beautful and heart breaking song, it seems to me Tom Scholz saw something of the loneliness and vulnerability in Brad Delp; a vulnerability that struggled with the heavy expectations of fame in the rock and pop world?

It's funny that so many Millennials and Gen Z are rocking out to our greats of the '70s and '80s... I remember listening to these songs thinking how could it get any better musically? It never did. We're all still stuck on these greats. Brad Delp, what a powerhouse.

So sad what a loss! Beautiful voice, band harmony was incredible… glad we lived in that era.

Called "the nicest guy in rock & roll". His demons got to him & all we have left is his beautiful voice. Saw him perform live twice. Glad I did!
