Boston truly defined atmospheric music.

What a great time when this band was in the limelight. Great music to go cruising on a Saturday night. Got the window down finding out where the party is. We did it right.

I have been waiting for a video like this with this song. It fits so perfectly together. Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, THIS IS MUSIC. REAL MUSIC.

I remember when this dropped. Was just giddy with anticipation after so long without an album. And hearing this the first time was just incredible and worth the wait. From what I remember this song was written and recorded back in the day and had been relegated to a storage room somewhere on a deteriorating reel to reel and was almost lost to time so parts that wouldn't play had to be rewritten to complete the song. BRAVO!!

I absolutely love Cool The Engines by Boston. This song reminds me when my deceased husband and I were dating. We always had fun together . I love and miss you. Happy Birthday on the 26th of July. He would have been 50.

Was fortunate to see them in the 80’s, 90’s, 2000’s and 2012. My absolute favorite jam band. Tight. BOSTON FOREVER!

In 1983 my best man and I got up at 2:am and headed to Edwards Air Force Base to see Columbia land. We heard the sonic booms and then saw it appear as the Sun was rising. Due to the sun just coming up, all of the white on the Shuttle was orange. We then scedaddled to Cal State Northridge to get to our Thermodynamics class. We were late. The Professor, Dr. Sidney Schwartz called us on the carper and said he was glad we joined but asked why we were late. We told him we had just came back from seeing the Space Shuttle land. We instantly turned into heroes as he was one of the lead Engineers in designing the Space Shuttle Engines..... We totally hijacked the class for that day.Amazing technology and dedication from all involved in the Program.....

I love how it sounds in my 2011 Ford Edge Limited with the 12 speaker Sony system! I blast this album whenever I can!

The Launch literally feels like it's taking you into space, even without a video like this. A mind-blowing piece of music, made even more sentimental because I first heard it just a few months after the Challenger accident.

Incredible, Heart bustling jam, guitar-heavy crushing force playing. Since I first heard it, Love it. Thanks, Tom.

Brad's been gone 14 years today. I needed this. Thanks, Brad. RIP

Well didn't expect such a majestic video...wow!

My late Father in Law was an Aerospace engineer. Was the type of guy that showed up at Stanford and took the entrance exam and smoked it. Attained a Masters Degree in Electronic Engineering.

The part from 2:55-3:11...dam, I could watch that 100 times, and it would never get old. As Atlantis is cracking through the sound barrier with a blasting guitar, it gives the image of a guy with a mullet at the controls, hammering the throttle and screaming, "Let's see what this baby can do!!" 3:10 -"See ya!" You timed that perfectly. Good show!

One of the greatest songs to have ever been created.

My 💜 favorite underrated song by them

Still coming back to watch this in 2022.

Seen it launch from Orlando back in 93-94 at night, and man that is such a beautiful sight to behold!

I remember the first time I heard the first lick of Boston on the radio. Nobody warned me because nobody was really talking about them yet, and this sound was so new and unique and so well recorded. Instant hook, these guys. And then to find the entire album was good too. One of the best values in vinyl back in the day. I have been deeply entertained by this group ever since.

Great Song! Great Rroup! Great Performance!

I am 55 years old. I grew up during this era. The best music ever hit the charts during the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Where are all the new comers that were supposed to learn from those bands and put out some jams that deserve volume. Humm, think I could sue Boston for my hearing loss?? Does anyone know if Larry the Cable Guy ever get a settlement out of Husler Magazine?

Excellent video in direct relation to such an AWESOME track!!! I used to get adrenaline rushes from watching Space Shuttle launches, also, as a growing child in the early Eighties and then as a teen in mid-Eighties... And I owned this album (Third Stage) on both LP & cassette tape in 1986!!!!

Boston's music cost me more money in speakers than any Band !!

Absolutely beautiful. As a species and as a society and as human beings we need to slow down and cool the engines. Some of us are working way too hard, it's probably the majority of us not some of us... we are being pushed way too hard. Things just need to slow down. We have to somehow simplify things. Thank you for creating this video. Boston is absolutely my favorite band.

Best match up of video to music ever!

Was just watching Space Cowboys last weekend good movie

Absolutely perfect video to go with this amazing song.

Cool video.....me love Boston.

Very cool video! Nice job!

This is just mind blowing tom Scholz you sir are a genius

Possibly the best video ever!

One of the baddest intros of a rock anthem ever. Love the shit out it! COOL THE ENGINES!😃😎👍💪🖖✌

We don't have to run that hard to get where we are going ! Hell Yea ! Cool The Engines ! This Is The Boston Theme Song !

This is so my kinda stuff. Perfect.

THIS SONG MADE ME BECOME A ENGINEER, THIS IS JUST DYNAMITE. POPE IVA.🕊🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯🕊

To the uploader: I think the same thing here... looking at the album covers that the band has and the song titles that they have to go along with it and listening to the songs it all does make me think of space too. The music is just something I could imagine to be playing in the cosmos in some space shuttle as the shuttle and it's crew drift around in space looking at everything out there... that is the beauty of space. It really is the 'final frontier' as they say and every nation needs to have their space program because eventually we will have to colonize on another planet and when we do Boston will be some of the music that I will be playing when I'm ready to go colonize with our fellow human beings. That said: Boston has much special meaning behind them... space and the very concept of owning and operating a starship has been one of my passionate interests for awhile now. ... Sorry for the walls of text people... I just love this band and space.

This is the absolute best video to an awesome song.kudos bro.long live the memory of Bradley Delp.

thanks for upload love Boston. I remember when this album came out, can't believe it's been so long. reminds me of my teen years. I really miss brad delp. perfect voice for the music.

This, sir, is fucking amazing. The first time I heard this song, I was 10 years old on vacation in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, sitting on the porch of the house my family had rented, listening to my music as the sun rose. It was a truly spiritual experience that spawned a love for the seemingly eternal optimism that exists in good music and the way that optimism pushes us to explore without fear. This is like a reel of my childhood, and I thank for providing such intoxicating nostalgia.

I have to say, this is one of the BEST videos I have ever seen! I was fortunate enough to live through the space era. My guess is you are too young to remember any of this. I watched the moon landing on tv along with the rest of the world. Time STOPPED. My heart still skips a beat when I see the footage of the rockets and NASA channel of our planet. I never thought I would live to see the government stop and close down our space program. It makes my heart hurt just thinking. It was a magical time to live in. Now at 63 yrs, I can remember it all like it waS YESTERDAY. You have done a wonderful job with this video. I have watched it three times in a row. Thank you.

EXCELLENT video! I just saw Boston in concert last night and was pleasantly surprised when they played this song...Thanks for the great visual :)

Not a huge Boston fan, but grew up listening to them (via Mom and Dad) and was obsessed with their album art as a kid. I do love NASA, space and especially the shuttle. As an older kid now, I can really appreciate the marriage of song and this video. Nice work, and yes, good song!

Brad, you are not forgotten.

Magnífico video 👏👏👏👍

Bad ass video and song! Great job! Everybody should put the headphones on and listen to this!

The shuttle Discovery STS 120 Launched October 23 2007 on My sons 5th Birthday, It's an amazing spectacle to see Live and the Power can be felt from Miles away, Put your headphones on or Crank the Launch at 2:42 Intro up to 11 and you May get an idea of the sound of a launch.

Perfect!!!!!!

god rest your soul BRAD

so many memories..... crazy.

This is BOSTON! Enough said!!!!!!!!!!!

We were here. I know this is a few responses deep. But it still stands. We. were. here. Before all this BS. d:^)

Seen this concert, walk on, them big organ tubes rising up behind the drum was kool

Cool song but that intro....awesome.

I have this on LP and CD. As we all know, when we got the CD format all the wonderful artwork that was often on the larger LP canvas was lost or miniaturized to such a degree that many times it became irrelevant. On the inside cover of this LP is a picture of the organ used in this song. I remember reading or hearing that this organ is the largest pipe organ in the world and is in the city of Boston. It has an unbelievable sound.

Danke Sir 2021! The future is HERE! (and this is a Mandatory two-fer!) Thx.

The Shuttle was waaaaaaay ahead of its time

My favorite Boston song hands down.
