    I was born in 72 and when I heard this song on the car radio, it made me cry. My mom asked me why I'm crying and I said; "I don't know"

    I had no idea the song was built in this manner! Incredible

    I’m 67 and this song still reverberates and echoes in the emotions of my life and work as a musician.

    What a beautiful song.  As I kid I found it haunting and fascinating.  No other song sounds like it.  Great job breaking it down.

    I always loved this song. Now I appreciate it even more. The complexity is staggering.

    They also recorded this in their own studio, so they could afford the time to experiment. The hours required to make this would have translated to a LOT of money, even back then. One of the true masterpieces of pop music, no matter which decade, or century, you’re talking about!

    I've never tired of this song. From listening to it on an AM radio under my pillow as a child to today.

    It's always a great day when a new breakdown comes out.

    This is phenomenal, Jon… seeing how they created this recording… in 1975… took my breath away. Genius.

    Dang! This track is the epitome of analog recording tricks. I thought I'd seen it all

    I always loved this song.  It has a sound like no other and now I know why.

    I've driven past Strawberry studios in Stockport countless times and the history still gets to me. Not just 10cc, but Joy Division too. The place is fated, as a passenger plane crashed about 100 yards down the road from there in the late 60s.
