Me too... In 1971 when this album first came out I was camping out on my sister's couch. She heard the line "Sitting on a park bench eyeing little girls with bad intent..." and just went ballistic on me. Then she smelled pot smoke on me and redoubled her efforts to demean me for being a disgusting hippie and all that stupidity. So when she took a breath, I screamed right back at her saying something like _"You're on my case about me choosing of my own free will to smoke pot, yet you involuntarily shove Darvon down your 10 year old daughter's throat because she's hyperactive? She's just a kid and you're a hypocrite!"_ Shut her up just like that... But I had enough or her right wing nonsense and found somewhere else to camp out. For the next two weeks my cousin and I drove up in front of her house and blasted that song as loud as his cheepo car stereo could get, just to rub it in. :)

After many years listening to it I came to the same conclusion. It is a perfect solo. Each and every note has purpose, weight and drives the passion in the delivery. The phrasing, the tone, the use and control of feedback, the dynamics and climax. It is a story unto itself. A masterpiece. It needs to be played loud on a top end stereo system or with high end headphones for the full effect.

A week later I went to the store and purchased "This Was". I was 12 years old. Tull was my favorite band. "Benefit", "Aqualung" and "Thick as a Brick" were all incredible albums. In April 1972, my best friend and I rode our bikes to the Forum in Inglewood, CA to buy tickets for the "Thick as a Brick" concert. On 23 June, 1972, we again rode our bikes to The Forum to watch the concert. It was the greatest day of my life to that point. It was the concert of a lifetime. Great music, unbelievable musicianship...even a lot of humor! Ian Anderson is a genius. And I felt like the luckiest guy in the world!

The songs from the 70's were the absolute best ever. So glad to be in Europe during those times. So many concerts, so many friends, beer and girls. By the way Ian Anderson's wife wrote the lyrics to "Aqualung".

This has to be one of the greatest songs of all time 🤘🏽

Saw Tull in concert on the Jersey shore one summer. With my first wife. Who knew that life would be blown away and I would spend time broke, alone and on the road! Seeing the world with a new set of eyes. Years have gone by. I am sitting on a country hill, housed,well fed, loved and protected. Proud to say I have spent my life helping others as an EMT, firefighter, public investigator. I have seen the world thru Aqualung’s eyes.

I am 65 , have been listening to your music since I was about 10. Jethro Tull is my favourite group. You are a genius. Greetings from Poland.❤

I always thought this song, with its empathy and social justice theme, was an outlier on the album and for Jethro Tull in general. Not that I think Ian is a hard-hearted person or anything, but most of the Tull songs tend to be about thinking for yourself, seizing the day, and so forth... more of a libertarian theme. I always figured he included this one on the album just to butter up his woman, who had a hand in writing it.

I grew up hearing this song and i'm 49 great album always will be.

Unbelievable video with stories of our reality. The drowned kid in an island here in Greece and more war then and now.And one of a kind song that everytime i like it,more!!

Absolutely wicked video of jethro Tull aqualung I had loved the album aqualung since I was 8 years old my uncle vic had introduced me to listen to this in 1972 I am now 58 years old and still listening to this it is a progressive rock masterpiece and I thank my uncle for introducing me to it my uncle vic had sadly passed away a week ago he would be sadly missed…..

The solo takes me to another place... damnnn

I bought the album back in 1977. Great album, Masterpiece. I still enjoy it.

Hot damn, it may have been worth the 50-year wait to get an official music vid for this song. How many times did we listen to this album over and over when it came out. Just one stunning song after another. I was watching something else and this got suggested. I've done this song in karaoke numerous times, and I may break it out again soon. Thank you thank you thank you.

Privileged to have seen Jethro Tull 6 times. Ian A. Brilliant😁

Weened on this album. (sic) Addicted and hooked the first time I listened to it. What a year '71 was. Anderson, Zappa and Gentle Giant that year. At least I can still see Ian preform. What a great treat that is.

Heftiger Text, sehr schöne Melodie.

When I saw this video, it was like hearing the song again for the first time in1971 when I was 17. Although I might have heard it performed live by Jethro Tull in 1973, I haven’t been so affected by the song ever since. The animators did an incredible job of recreating the despair and hopelessness on the faces of the refugees.

I've just cryied watching this videoclip for its beautiness and message that speak to us in a very same way that the lyrics did 50 years ago. Happy 50 years of Aqualung release, thank you Ian Anderson, Martin Barre, John Evans, Glenn Cornick and Clive Bunker for such great songs from this album!

No offense to the late Glenn Cornick (R.I.P.), but it was Jeffrey Hammond(-Hammond) on bass on the Aqualung album.

It's sad that these older songs that bring to light the vices and failings of society are even more poignant and relevant now than when they first came out. "Aqualung", "A Farewell to Kings".... it's like they were written today.

@@jasonjohnson5773 It was a statement on the state of social issues back then. People shrinking their worldview ("turned our gaze from the castles in the distance, eyes cast down on the paths of least resistance") , distorting facts ("slandering the sacred halls of truth"), hypocritical leaders, people and leaders driven by animosity, disdain for experience ("scoffing at the wise"), leaders acting out of anger or negativity ("ancient nobles showering their bitterness on youth"). It was just something that lyrically seemed interesting and topical back then, but 40 years later still seems very topical.

So transcendental of time! Truly iconic.

Ian Anderson is one of the most creative musicians in Rock´s History. Awesome songwriter. He is the really The Scotland Pride. Than you so much for your visit to México!!!!!!. God bless you, Ian!!!!!!

Definitely one of my most influencing albums, a masterpiece.

Sitting on a park bench Eyeing little girls with bad intent Snot's running down his nose Greasy fingers, smearing shabby clothes Hey, Aqualung Drying in the cold sun Watching as the frilly panties run Hey, Aqualung Feeling like a dead duck Spitting out pieces of his broken luck Oh, Aqualung Sun streaking cold An old man wandering lonely Taking time the only way he knows Leg hurting bad As he bends to pick a dog-end He goes down to the bog and warms his feet Feeling alone The army's up the road Salvation a la mode and a cup of tea Aqualung, my friend Don't you start away uneasy You poor old sod You see, it's only me Do you still remember December's foggy freeze When the ice that clings on to your beard Was screaming agony? And you snatch your rattling last breaths With deep-sea diver sounds And the flowers bloom like madness in the spring Sun streaking cold An old man wandering lonely Taking time the only way he knows Leg hurting bad As he bends to pick a dog-end He goes down to the bog and warms his feet Feeling alone The army's up the road Salvation a la mode and a cup of tea Aqualung, my friend Don't you start away uneasy You poor old sod You see, it's only me Me, oh-oh-oh Aqualung, my friend Don't you start away uneasy You poor old sod You see, it's only me, yeah Sitting on a park bench Eying little girls with bad intent Snot's running down his nose Greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes Hey, Aqualung Drying in the cold sun Watching as the frilly panties run Hey, Aqualung Feeling like a dead duck Spitting out pieces of his broken luck Hey, Aqualung Woah, Aqualung

The Jethro Tull Aqualung tour.

I am very impressed with this video. It proves that this song is a timeless classic and its message is still relevant as it was 50 years ago. My hats off to Ian Anderson, Sam Chegini and Hassan Nozadian.

Thanks a lot Peter!

This is the best interpretation of the meaning of this song.

The Pride of Arizona did a kick ass adaptation of this song. Still sad I never ended up marching as a Wildcat, but what’s past is past

Saw him in concert!

Soy fan de Jethro Tull de más de 40 años,y pienso que Aqualung merecía algo más,es una Joya del rock que merece más que un vídeo de bajo presupuesto,me quedo con las versiones en vivo,aún así sigo y seguiré admirando al Jethro Tull...🎩🎸🍺

Jethro Tull and Aqualung are always fantastic. Happy Easter season to everyone

Crazy that such an old song gers a music video now. Shows how much we developed in such a short time. This was basically a lifetime ago for many peolple but the creators are still kicking.

I seen Jethro Tull live! Proco Harum opened up for Tull. Great live show! Ian Anderson dressed in a janitors overalls and was mopping the stage then the band started and the curtin opened ......then TULL tore open the mop handle and inside of the handle was his flute...What a show! Damn I'm old. Hahaha
