The version of this song has a much longer guitar solo when they played at Tanglewood in 1970. Trust me.

Terry Kath's wife said (on the Terry Kath documentary produced by their daughter) the meaning is from a night of doing blow, and they were deciding if they were gonna 're-up' and someone asked what time it was. Sombody replied "25 (or 6) to 4". Then she laughed.

even 50 years later....this GETS me up everytime!!! CHEEEEE WHOOOOOOO!!!

You should check out the live version.The video quality isn't very good, but the sound is good and watching Terry Kath play that guitar solo is amazing.The solo is longer in the live video and Terry kills it.He shows why he was Jimi Hendrix favorite guitar player!A sad fact about Terry Kath is that he died back in the 70's while playing Russian roulette and accidentally shot himself in the head.

This song isn't as old as me, but pretty close. I feel so fortunate to have grown up around this level of talent and creativity. I took it for granted until the late 90s/early 2000s when I saw a trend of the music industry becoming more about the industry than the music. I love all of these reaction channels of younger folks rediscovering this great era of music. Where do we go from here?

Another excellent choice Jayy!!! I love when you do the oldies!! I've got a soft spot for this band because I'm from Chicago and they have been around for so long since 1967 back then they were known as the Chicago Transit authority and then they shortened it in 1970 to just Chicago. They have an endless list of hits that you could listen to of course this is one of their best and most popular. Keep up the good work bright eyes, I'm looking forward to what you do next

Color my world - was a big staple at weddings as a first dance song. Terry Kaith R.I.P. was one of the greats of guitar.

The entire "Ballet for a a Girl In Buchannon" from Chicago II, a seven song cycle is better than the single versions of those, in my opinion. The entire ballet includes "Make Me Smile / So Much To Say So Much to Give / Anxiety's Moment / West Virginia Fantasies / Colour My World / To Be Free / Now More Than Ever". The single version of "Make Me Smile" combines the album version of "Make Me Smile" and "Now More Than Ever".

So many concerts. Great musicians. This song was written and sung by Robert Lamb, songwriter, keyboard and vocals. And ... he is yummy! LOL. Best difference Chicago brings is the horn section. Saxophone, trombone, trumpet, flute, fluegelhorn etc. Great concerts. My favorite is... Saturday in the Park. It’s about Central Park in NYC. Been there, it’s amazing! Street musicians, guys eating fire and swallowing swords, magicians, dancers, mimes, balloons, cotton candy, ice cream, soft pretzels.... on and on!

I wonder how many of Terry Kath's guitar's filed assault charges. The man was a beast.

You just dipped a toe into genres of music and musicians. I'm 60 and still catching up on music I missed the 1st time round. Lol . You will spend your whole life in discovery of music. You would have loved the 70s. The most diverse original inventive decade in music history!!!

The song was written by Robert Lamm. He said that the song is about trying to write a song with the title referring to the time of day. He had written it when he was living at a house with a bunch of hippies up above Sunset Strip. One of the advantages of this particular house is that it was in the Hollywood Hills and you could look out over the city late at night. He wanted to try to describe the process of writing the song he was writing. So, waiting for the break of day, searching for something to say, flashing lights against the sky - there was a neon sign across the city. That song came from the fact that it was 25 or 6 or 4 am in the morning when he looked at his watch, and he was looking for a line to finish the chorus. The band had 3 lead vocalists. Robert Lamm who also played keyboards, Terry Kath who also played lead guitar and bass guitar, and Peter Cetera who also played bass guitar and acoustic guitar. Peter Cetera is also the singer who is singing lead vocals on this song 25 or 6 to 4. The drummer is Danny Seraphine. There are also 3 horn players in the band. Lee Loughnane, James Carter Pankow, and Walter Parazaider.

LOVE this song, so happy you liked some old Chicago! Another great one is "Only The Beginning" - beautiful love song, lots of brass, great singer!

So, story of this song's title, is they were recording all night, and laying on the studio floor. Someone asked what time it was, and the person who read the wall clock was lying down, looked upside down and behind him started saying It's 25... realized he was reading the clock upside down, and changed it to six minutes to four o'clock. Make sense?

Do a KZread search for “Chicago 25 or 6 to 4 At Tanglewood”. The guitar solo is beyond belief, and Terry doesn’t even look at his hands. He also plays with such force that it’s a miracle he didn’t break any strings.

When I was in high school in the 1970’s this song just was it. The horn section is just wonderful and our band played it to perfection . Ripley High School, Vikings forever!

Great song. I actually first heard it as the theme song for the Washington Senators radio broadcast :-) This is one of my favorite all time songs by anyone. Literally the song that made me fall in love with electric guitar and rock in general. As others said, Saturday in the Park is another great one. They have an entire catalogue of great songs people forget who released them. A very underrated band. Kind of like Three Dog Night or Bread. You forget they had so many hits until you start listening to their albums - especially their best of.

There is early Chicago that jams, and there is later Chicago which is sappy AM Radio tripe. I was a kid when this was on the radio! One of the best songs ever performed. 😁

I'm 47. As a little girl my Dad jammed to this song a lot. Great memories. Awesome song!!!

If you watch the performance of this song from the 1970 Tanglewood concert, you will not be disappointed! Blows me away everytime.

Also, MORE CHICAGO!

The Live at Tanglewood video of this, from 1970, is 7 minutes you will never forget. Hearing Terry Kath is one thing, but getting to watch him rock this solo with even more time to do his thing, it's a must watch.

300 million records sold..absolute legends. Saw them play in 2019..The trio of brass was incredible..still doing it in their 70s

Chicago is one of the greatest bands ever. Some more great songs by them are; "introduction", "listen", "poem", "make me smile", "dialogue", "south California purples", "old days", "beginnings", and "no tell lover", just to name a few. You definitely listen to more chicago

I love seeing people being transported by music . When you close your eyes and let the song take you .

Chicago is my 2nd favorite of all time.....listen to Saturday in the park..or Color my World 🌎 or just me and you...or Beginnings or call on me....I know every song 🎵 but if you can get through Color My World 🌎 without crying ill be amazed

I just remembered our high school band used to play this 1972-1976. The horns🔥 Lamm said the song is about trying to write a song in the middle of the night. The song's title is the time at which the song is set: 25 or 26 minutes before 4 AM (twenty-five or [twenty-]six [until] 4). Because of the unique phrasing of the song's title, "25 or 6 to 4" has been interpreted to mean everything from a quantity of illicit drugs to the name of a famous person in code.

I enjoyed watching you so much I may rewind, rinse and repeat. You youngsters today!!! I'll tellya!!! I have a degree in music, majoring in brass in college. And all we talked about in college was all the great bands that you guys have never heard (Chicago, Blood Sweat and Tears, Earth Wind and Fire, and others). All were rock bands, but they had these great in-your-face aggressive sounds supplied by brass sections right alongside the standard rock-band setups. It was so much fun watching you because I have all the Chicago LPs (you know, those big black flat, round things you play with needles!), and their hits are so innumerable I can't even suggest just one to listen to because the list of listenable tunes goes off the page. So that was great fun. I know people like keying off vocals and guitars, but did you notice the tight, punchy interludes with the trombone, trumpet, and sax? Did you hear the crisp, dry drumming from legend Danny Seraphine? Well, you've kind've shone your flashlight into the vast, dark alcove hiding a plethora of REALLY FUN MUSIC THAT SOUNDS LIKE NOTHING ON THE RADIO TODAY. They call it jazz-rock. I was watching your (adorable) facial expressions at the end when James Pankow actually ended the song (instead of copping out by just fading out repeating a phrase ad nauseum). It's different, ain't it? Jazz chord and chord progressions open up a whole new world of how melody should work and how chords interact. At the end of this song, if you played someone just the last three chords, they'd never be able to guess what key the song was in, and that's the beauty of jazz. Oh...James Pankow was the trombonist and did the brass arrangements. If you're so inclined: Beginnings: kzread.info/dash/bejne/nn1hpK99ntfPZMY.html Listen to the drum fills on this one and you'll understand why I mentioned Danny Seraphine. Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is: kzread.info/dash/bejne/aamtks6decKXeKQ.html Questions 67 and 68: kzread.info/dash/bejne/rGWZqJmKlbbTirQ.html Wake Up Sunshine: kzread.info/dash/bejne/X2uF3JSxgNywksY.html Make Me Smile: kzread.info/dash/bejne/mKFop8GmqNLHnc4.html Saturday in the Park: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ep6tzqZwlda-dNI.html There's a lot more, but it was at this point Chicago started morphing away from an in-your-face brassy jazz-rock band into more of a rock and ballad band with occasional brass in the back. I like a lot of later stuff, but these songs were the original Chicago sound.

"25 or 6 to 4" answers the question "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?" Yes, Chicago is from Chicago. They called themselves Chicago Transit Authority on their first album and then just Chicago. The first 45 rpm single I bought back when I was a kid in the 70's was "Saturday In the Park", so I agree with others recommending that song to you. Also check out "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?" when you can.

So, so glad you've been introduced to one of the best bands of all time. And one, if not, the best rock guitarists of all. Thank you TJayy.

Chicago was formed in 1967 in, you guessed it, Chicago! 25 or 6 to 4 is about staying up for hours trying to write a new song. It's my favorite from their debut album released April i969. When they hit the airwaves there was NOTHING like them. I was incredibly blessed by God to be a teen in the 60s...so much fantastic music!

I love watching the smiles and joy on your face listening to the MUSIC I grew up with. I’m so glad the young are discovering it.

Been to so many Chicago concerts because they're amazing live and because their vast collection of great songs from each era is awe-inspiring. Hope you'll continue to react to more of Chicago. They will NOT disappoint

I Love to see people getting let in on great music. Girl, your honest reactions to this song are why reaction videos are a thing. You made me :) Subscribed and liked! Love the headphones!

My husband and I try to go see them every year and dance our buts off 🙂 Beginnings is my absolute favorite! It’s amazing and the lyrics r great!

About their sound, you are absolutely correct, their use of the huge brass compliment in their music does truly make their sound magical! You should listen to everything you can find of this band, they are truly amazing.

So crazy that this song was about the time on the clock. Terry did his thing on that solo. Chicago was amazing.

“If You Leave Me Now” is a slower but beautiful Peter Cetera vocals Chicago hit. “Make Me Smile” is awesome too

This is one of my most favorite songs of all time by them. Gotta see these guys in person.

I literally don't know how many times I have seen them live. They are an anmazing band, and they are still out there killing it! Catch a show if you can. Much love 💘

FYI: the an playing tht guitar is Terry Kath. Jimi Hendrix was once asked how he felt being regarded as the greatest guitar player. Hendrix responded: you should be asking that cat in Chicago.

This was a song that Peter sang lead. Supposed to be about writing and recording their 1st album until long past midnight. Peter was the last member to join and they wanted him for his voice and he could play bass. Next up Chicago "ballet for a girl in buchannon" do the tanglewood 1970 concert but whoever posted it, cut it in half and the second half is labeled "Colour My World". Do not except "Make me Smile" because it is a cut out and only a small part of the song. You really see the energy in this live version.This time the late Great Terry Kath sings the lead. That's - (tanglewood 1970 "ballet for a girl in buchannon" and tanglewood 1970 "Colour My World") for the complete live version) both about 6 minutes

Maybe the best horn section from this era of music, love so much of their stuff, I personally like the early music, but that's me, saw them live in 1977 and they were amazing. Colour my world is a beautiful short but very sweet love song...♡

You will like Chicago. They have a trombone player a saxophone and a trumpet player as full time members of the band so you hear the trademark horns in all their songs. And Terry Kath was the guitarist in the early days. Unfortunately he passed away in 1978.

One of Chicago's prettiest songs ever is " colour my world " !!! You must hear it . Short but sweet

Actually this song is about Robert Lamm trying to write a song in the middle of the night. He wasn't high, he was just tired. Notice how he said he was searching for something to say, etc. He looks at the clock and it's 25 or 26 minutes until 4 a.m. They weren't laying around and high. It's about trying to finish a composition. 🤔😎

Yeah, the stereo effects in music from the late sixties to the mid-seventies were great.

the original Chicago were 7 great musicians... once terry died they were never the same and when Peter left they weren’t Chicago anymore ..” does anybody know what time it is “ .. is my favorite song ....

Hola Jayy, one of the masterpiece songs of Rock music! Chicago was (and remains) one of the truly great bands of all time!

Great reaction to my favorite song from my favorite band that I grew up on. The band was formed in Chicago as the Chicago Transit Authority then they moved to California. With this album they shortened their name as they were threatened with a lawsuit over the name by the actual CTA. I recommend you check out their debut album, it opens with the track "Introduction", written and sung by founding guitarist Terry Kath. His soulful voice had him dubbed "The white Ray Charles". If this song impressed you with his guitar playing, "Poem 58" on that debut will have you calling 911 for oxygen! He breaks out the funk for the opening 4 minutes of that track! Jimi Hendrix saw them playing at the Whisky A Go-Go and told the band in between sets, "you've got a horn section that sounds like one set of lungs and a guitar player that's better than me!" Jimi hired CTA as his opening act to go on tour.

Robert Lamm wrote the song about struggling to write a song. It was real late/early morning….25 or 26 minutes to 4am. Cant figure out what to write about…so he wrote about the process of trying to write a song at 3:34-3:35 in the morning. Brilliant.

So many wonderful songs. I love listening to their greatest hits. Of course it was a double album. Color My World was always a favorite of mine. It is short and very sweet.

This is when class is brought to music. I really enjoyed watching you really get into a legend

Love your T-shirt, Jay. Thanks for this. One of my fav songs ever.

Amazing, amazing reaction!! Lol I was in elementary school first time hearing this , Still good after all these years!! GREAT song of the 70's!!!

the early Chicago will surprise fans of 90s Chicago...best horn section around circa 1970s

They were originally call "Chicago Transit Authority", but later shortened it to just "Chicago". They have the best horn section.

Their song “Saturday in the Park” is a perfectly fun summer song. You’ve got to enjoy it soon. 🥰
