I'm a 63 year old Black woman who was born in 1960 and I have loved Chicago songs since I was a teenager. These White boys have so much soul and their harmony and not to mention their good looks! I still play their music because it takes me back to the best years of my life when the world was still a safe place and when bands actually made GOOD MUSIC! I LOVE CHICAGO SO MUCH ❤! God bless these guys!

You don't sound black. You sound like someone trying to sound like what they think someone black sounds like. We don't talk like that. Especially at 60+. These guys are classic. Just leave it at that whoever you are

Cetera-Champlin is a magical duet.. Champlin-Scheff is a top class duet on their own right too..

Jason Scheff has been with the band since '86. 30 years. Twice as long as Cetera if you want to go that route. Peter was awesome but he went solo and did very well. Get over the "new" singer.

Almost as great as the original. This song is platinum! I grew up in Chicagoland and they rocked the ‘70s. They were every Chicagoan’s favorite band. ❤❤❤❤

I was in college when this came out and immediately loved it. My college sweetheart and I got in a little trouble for playing it too loud with the dorm room door not completely closed, just a warning, lol.

The best version of "Hard Habit To Break," and perfect combo from Jason, Bill and Dawayne. It's absolutely extraordinary....

@@joshuavittoriom.garong4254 just like Terry Kath, only there from '67-8 to 1978, ten years. The band played on still into the present and people are STILL moaning about the late TK. He left eons ago. Peter left eons ago. Dawayne Bailey was phenomenal for this band, who could appear stodgy w/o an injection of something fresh and new. Bill Champlin and Bailey enlivened Chicago during their entire tenure. That cannot be denied. Jason did admirably well, considering. Truth is Lamm is a hypocrite, making announcements before tours, 'there will be us only standing in line and singing, no dancing'. Of course that was a shot at Dawayne who had such charisma and magnetism to steal the show with his physicality and showmanship. Yet Robert was fine with ole swivel hips Pankow, dancing, gyrating and hopping across the entire stage like a wanna-be Broadway dancer. I get so tired of listening to the lies and jabs at former band members (Peter, Bill, Dawayne) by Jimmy, Walt and Lamm . Really have little respect for those guys; they fall far short of men of integrity.

My favorite band forever.

This song wasn't written by any member of Chicago. It was written by Steve Kipner and John Lewis Parker. Kipner came to America in 1974 with Liverpool England born musician Peter Beckett and Co wrote a few songs with Beckett on a debut album PLAYER (1977) except this song 👉 Yes, singer Peter Beckett and J.C Crowley wrote BABY COME BACK #1 on Billboard in January 1978 Player also included Ronn Moss on bass , yep the guy that played ex Ridge Forrester on Bold and the Beautiful and drummer John Frieson. Kipner was not in the band.

So much talent, so little music. Sickly dross beautifully executed.

Jason--and his hair--always make me smile (no pun intended). Glad this video is here, as I saw them for the first time in '92, for my first concert ever, and it was for my 14th birthday (I'd begged to go for years, but my silly parents said I was too young. I think they also hoped I'd grow out of wanting to see them so badly. Obviously, I was the youngest one there). Well, they stated singing this song, and I promptly began crying, and don't remember any of the experience hearing my all time favorite song live for the first time ever. I'd like to think it was performed the same way at Walnut Creek that same year.
