Hello and welcome back to my channel. My

0:01

name is Stacy and I'm so happy to see

0:03

you here today. If you are new to the

0:05

channel, first of all, welcome. And

0:07

second of all, if you're wondering what

0:08

we are doing in my corner of the

0:09

internet, I am on a journey of listening

0:11

to songs, bands, and artists I've never

0:13

heard before. And today, you guys, we

0:15

are getting back into the band Chicago,

0:17

and we're listening to a song called

0:19

Hard to Say I'm Sorry/Get

0:22

Away. I have only listened to one

0:24

Chicago tune before and it has been

0:27

quite a long time since I've listened to

0:29

them and reacted to them. So, I'm

0:31

excited to dive back into their sound

0:33

and to see what this song is all about.

0:35

So, before we begin the reaction, you

0:37

0:38

0:40

discovery, please be sure to like and

0:41

0:43

the channel as it really helps growing

0:45

content creators like me. So, without

0:46

further ado, let's get into the

0:47

reaction. All righty, you guys. This is

0:49

Chicago. Hard to say I'm sorry slashget

0:52

away. Let's get started.

1:15

Everybody needs a little time away.

1:20

I heard a say

1:23

from each other.

1:29

Even lovers need a holiday,

1:35

far away from each other.

1:40

>> Those harmonies.

1:42

Now,

1:44

>> it's hard for me to say I'm sorry.

1:48

I just want you to stay.

1:55

After all that we've been through,

1:59

I will make it up to you.

2:03

I promise to.

2:08

After all that's been said and done,

2:13

you're justif The part of me I can't let

2:17

go.

2:25

Couldn't stand to be kept away

2:29

just for the day

2:33

from your body.

2:39

>> All right, let's pause real fast. This

2:41

is a wonderful tune already. To say I am

2:44

hooked on it is an understatement. The

2:47

way that it draws you in with the piano

2:49

and then they slowly introduce you to

2:52

new instruments as a song progresses is

2:54

just so brilliant. You got um violins,

2:58

you got beautiful harmonies, a wonderful

3:01

melody. I'm just loving what I'm hearing

3:03

so far. The quality is substantial in

3:07

this tune so far. Just loving what I'm

3:09

hearing. And I feel like I'm just

3:11

getting lost in this music. The quality

3:13

is out of this world. Um, like I said

3:16

before, I haven't heard Chicago in quite

3:18

some time. So, uh, yeah, I kind of

3:21

forgot their sound. I kind of forgot

3:24

what they were all about. So, it feels

3:26

really good to refresh my memory. So,

3:28

let's continue.

3:34

be swept away

3:40

far away from the one that I love.

3:46

Oh,

3:49

it's hard for me to say I'm sorry.

3:53

I just want you to know.

3:59

Hold me now.

4:02

I really want to tell you I'm sorry.

4:06

I could never let you go.

4:11

So beautiful.

4:14

After all that we've been through,

4:18

I will make it up to you.

4:22

I promise to

4:27

after all that's been said

4:32

you're just

4:35

going to let go

4:46

of you.

5:10

So cinematic.

5:16

>> It's so cinematic. So theatrical. It

5:19

sounds gorgeous.

5:28

Slowing it back down.

5:32

M.

5:35

Cool synth.

5:57

All right,

6:02

time to jam

6:09

a horn, too.

6:12

Wow.

6:18

I love the piano.

6:29

>> I love that.

6:32

>> All right. Oh my god, we're almost to

6:34

the end. This went by so fast. All

6:36

right, let me just go back 10 seconds

6:38

and we'll end it.

6:43

I see nobody

6:47

know.

6:55

Wow.

6:59

Baby.

7:09

Yeah. Yeah, baby. That was excellent.

7:12

Okay, I apologize for the very late

7:14

pause. It didn't feel like five minutes

7:17

listening to this song. It went by so

7:20

fast, but that was so wonderful indeed.

7:23

Wow. Okay. Jeez, I love this song from

7:28

beginning to end. This was so much fun

7:30

and completely unexpected. The

7:32

transition

7:34

near the very end of the song, holy

7:36

crap, that just like I don't know. That

7:38

rocked my world. I really really like

7:41

that. And I also love the horn section

7:44

of this song so much. I felt like it

7:46

elevated the tune. Just I I don't know.

7:49

It just elevated it. It It just went in

7:52

a totally different direction that I

7:53

wasn't expecting. Just the way the song

7:56

started so delicate with the piano and

7:58

then you got the violins and, you know,

8:01

very soft vocals, very beautiful

8:03

harmonies and then it turns into such a

8:06

rocker at the end. I love that. I love

8:09

when we are given a tune that is just

8:12

totally unexpected. And I can't believe

8:14

five minutes went by just like that. It

8:16

felt like I was listening to this tune

8:19

for only a minute. I don't know, maybe I

8:21

was just lost in it. And I was really

8:23

enjoying the quality of it. Like I said,

8:25

it's just beautiful music. Awesome

8:27

music. Very talented band. And oh god, I

8:31

just I just can't deal with that

8:33

transition. It was so powerful. I kind

8:36

of wish this song was longer. Even

8:38

though it's 5 minutes already and it's

8:40

it's a beefy song full of so many

8:42

different instrumentation and you know

8:44

you got horns, violins, piano, amazing

8:47

vocals, everything. It's a beefy song

8:49

with so many different elements. I just

8:51

feel like I don't know. I felt like time

8:54

got away from me with this one which I

8:56

think makes it extra special. And I'm

8:59

looking at the title of the song again

9:00

which is hard to say I'm sorry slash

9:02

getaway. And I imagine the getaway part

9:06

was when the song started ramping up and

9:09

it turned into a completely different

9:11

tune. I feel like that's probably what

9:14

it's referring to. Um or what that

9:16

section of the song is called. But yeah,

9:18

it's kind of named perfectly because

9:21

the the last portion of the song kind of

9:25

gets away from the other portion of the

9:28

song. It's so crazy. It's so it's so

9:30

awesome. This was such a fun experience.

9:32

Just what a raw talented band. And

9:35

again, it feels good to rediscover their

9:37

sound. It's been so long since I've

9:40

listened to Chicago. I can't even

9:41

remember the last time. I would like to

9:43

say maybe over a year. So, yeah, I

9:45

definitely feel like I need to get back

9:47

into their sound and get back into their

9:49

music. And this is a great song to help

9:51

me get back into the groove of things

9:53

with Chicago. Wow. This makes me want to

9:55

dive deeper into their catalog because

9:57

what amazing amazing talent this band

10:00

has. I just loved when bands were not

10:03

afraid of using different

10:04

instrumentation that's not typically

10:06

used in today's music. So, you got, you

10:09

know, violins and horns and amazing

10:13

transitions that you were not expecting.

10:15

It was so creative and it keeps you on

10:17

your toes. It keeps things interesting.

10:21

So magical. This was wonderful.

10:22

definitely need more Chicago in my life.

10:24

So, I think that will do for today's

10:26

reaction. Thank you all again so much
