This was a time when we didn't have cell phones, internet or any social media. Often I would take the long way home to think or just to listen to great music like this. Sometimes you just aren't ready to go home.

@rossmacintosh5652 2 года назад

The long way home is still an option. Even when there isn't a life you want to escape from, there can still be some solace in the long way home.

"Sometimes you just aren't ready to go home." Indeed. In fact, The Police have a song called SYNCHRONICITY II that is all about that very feeling. Great jam, thanks for reminding me of it.

@steverunnalls97 2 года назад

This song has meant so much to me over the years. “Does it feel that your life's become a catastrophe? Oh, it has to be, for you to grow, boy”. That line says it all. My take is the long way home is a metaphor for life, home is maybe the end of the journey. After all the mistakes, missed opportunities, regrets, we finally realize that is how life is and accept it for what it is and “find our way home”.

@Xiphos0311 Год назад

@s.mcpherson6354 2 года назад

Genius compositions and productions. You've really enjoyed the ones you've done, so for your sake and ours, please do more Supertramp. You will not be disappointed. This one's about how we all want to find a place where we are loved and accepted for who we are, but so often we'll 'take the long way home' because our own homes don't feel that way.

@MusicMissionary 2 года назад

I always thought it was an expression for bailing and leaving for another life.

@classic-kool 2 года назад

I read it was about life on the road, and how you play a part on stage and it messes up your sense of who you are. The band plays different cities so you're never going "home", but to the next city on tour. Until, finally, the tour ends and you go "home".

@s.mcpherson6354 2 года назад

@@classic-kool Yeah, in an interview I heard him say it was a mixture of that feeling, of always packing to go from city to city, and then when a tour was ending, you were going home even if you weren't getting along with your spouse. Even though you wanted to end the tour by going home, you'd take the long way home from the airport, just to give yourself some peace between the road stress and the stress of re-entering any home-front conflict.

I have had the extreme pleasure of seeing Supertramp “The Tramp” LIVE 4 times. Their music is pure brilliance from each member of the group. Rick Davies - My Favorite Piano/Keyboard Player. John Helliwell - Favorite Sax player. Roger, Bob and Dougie are all awesome. Their Live shows are spectacular. I only put Pink Floyd (4 times) one place higher for their shows.

@terryv2006 2 года назад

Lucky you! They played my town once 40 years and I wasn’t able to attend. It’s still considered the best concert ever in London Ontario Canada.

@Jessica_Roth 2 года назад

It's interesting that this is one of Roger's songs, but there's almost no guitar on it. it's built around Rick's keyboards, and I hear more of Dougie's bass than I hear the guitar. I guess that's a sign of good songwriting; Roger doesn't just write parts for himself. Hmm.

@AliasMark69 2 года назад

@@terryv2006 I'm sure it was, unless Pink Floyd has played there. I've seen both bands 4 times. P.F. is the only group I put above The Tramp for a live performance.

@RockDocNeal 2 года назад

Hahaha!!!..."I've never heard a harmonica stank so hard" (which is very true) Another priceless gem from Lex! 😂 It is one of the many great songs from Supertramp, who were generally underrated. Brad, you were pretty much right on with your analysis, here's a quote form the writer of the song, Roger Hodgson, about the meaning of the song..."I'm talking about not wanting to go home to the wife, take the long way home to the wife because she treats you like part of the furniture, but there's a deeper level to the song, too. I really believe we all want to find our home, find that place in us where we feel at home, and to me, home is in the heart and that is really, when we are in touch with our heart and we're living our life from our heart, then we do feel like we found our home."

@stlmopoet 2 года назад

Lex, you have the vibe right. It's about getting morally lost in the woods. "When the day comes to settle down, who's to blame if you're not around? You took the long way home." Brad has the general meaning right.

@livenhfree 2 года назад

Ohhh... one of my favorite bands from the 70s/80s. One of the things that I really appreciate about the band is the bass playing of Roger Hodgson. He just adds so much color with creative fills and clever backing. Not just playing the roots. He's like that on basically all of the tracks, especially Give A Little Bit. Give it a listen! Well done, y'all!

@thedukeofawesome4361 2 года назад

@neillenet291 2 года назад

Brad, relax Man. You really need to stop expecting what's going to happen in a piece of music and just allow it to happen and allow yourself to be taken in by it. The keyboard Note in the beginning of that song is meant to draw you in, not repulse you. It's there to create an atmosphere. If you ever want to know what it looks like to actually enjoy and experience music just take a glance to your left.

I'd say this is one of maybe three top harmonica songs in rock. This one, "When The Levee Breaks," and "Long Train Runnin'". The harmonica is boosted by a clarinet in this one. A more mournful harmonica can be found in "Heart of Gold," "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother," "Last Dance With Mary Jane," and blues harmonica in "Midnight Rambler."

Supertramp are an English progressive rock band from London. Formed in 1969, the group originally consisted of bassist and lead vocalist Roger Hodgson, guitarist and vocalist Richard Palmer, keyboardist and vocalist Rick Davies, and drummer Keith Baker. The band's current lineup includes Davies alongside drummer Bob Siebenberg, saxophonist John Helliwell, (both since 1973), guitarist Carl Verheyen, trumpeter Lee Thornburg, bassist Cliff Hugo, keyboardist Mark Hart (all of whom joined in 1996), multi-instrumentalist Jesse Siebenberg (since 1997), keyboardist Gabe Dixon and backing vocalist Cassie Miller (both since 2010). John Anthony Helliwell is an English musician and the saxophonist and occasional keyboardist, woodwind player, and background vocalist for the rock band Supertramp. He also served as an MC during the band's concerts, talking and making jokes to the audience between songs.

There was so much majic in their music! It's sad that today with all the modern technology, nothing compares to yesterdays real music with creativity.

In my opinion, if ever there was a song that defined the overall philosophy my parents raised my brother and me with, it is this one. In this case, it’s not the lyrics that drive the memory, it the song’s title. Beyond the metaphor the title of the song speaks to, the idea that one could and quite often should just take a longer way home has always appealed to me. Living a life where you get to choose the pace in which you live it sounds very appealing. My family did a lot of traveling; we went places, saw things, met people and grew because of it. I am not certain if this was the point of the traveling but its consequence was to show me that there was a much more to see beyond the somewhat confined borders of my own hometown. This particular memory is of my dad, my brother and I driving to see the movie Rocky…I know, right! The movie came out in 1976 but it was showing again at the theater in Anderson. My dad owned a really beat up Datsun pickup single cab so it was a little cramped. We drove to Massachusetts in that thing. It was a Friday evening, my dad did not have to work the following day and this song was on the radio as we drove over the hill into Anderson. Honestly, I have no idea why this particular moment resonates with me so much. Mom was in army basic training at Fort Dix New Jersey. Dad belonged to a record company program where he got vinyl records in the mail and I know he got this album in the mail. For some reason, my young brain decided that this moment was special and hard-coded it into long term memory.

Supertramp's masterpiece, their crowning glory. It was just everywhere in 1979. So much good music on this album. Strange trivia: if you hold the album cover up and look at the reflection in the mirror, it appears to say 9,11 over the World Trade Center towers. 🤔

When Lex has to guess the meaning of lyrics, she often interprets things as drug-related.

@buzzbomb67 2 года назад

Ive noticed that lol and truth be told, a good lot of music is either about drugs, drug trips, or was influenced by drugs. So she’s not wrong …

@suzukispider 2 года назад

The music they're listening to came from the sixties and seventies mostly and so , umm, yeah there were drugs involved

@TheOriginalFILIBUSTA 2 года назад

@@suzukispider Drugs may have been a part of 60s and 70s culture, including songwriters, but the majority of song topics - including all the ones they react to - are NOT about drugs. Put it this way, if you want to interpret these songs, the odds are in your favour if you NEVER think they're about drugs. You'll be wrong sometimes, but only a slim minority of those times. Writing about drugs is easy and leads to boring songs. Most subjects are about other human experiences.

This song sounds like it’s about him after a show. He said something about up on stage they adore you. So maybe it’s like an adrenaline rush after a concert to slow down he takes the long way home. At the end even the music gets slow and sleepy.

Its about someone who feels they are being ignored at home , and they picture themselves so much in thier head, you take the long way home so you dont have to go home , you stay out to enjoy your world of feeling good. Its about your freedom and feeling good about things, its taking time for yourself and all you wanted to be, you got it Brad.
