Boston

Boston is an American rock band formed in Boston, Massachusetts in 1975. The band’s core members include multi-instrumentalist, founder and leader Tom Scholz, who played the majority of instruments on the band’s 1976 self-titled debut album, and former lead vocalist Brad Delp, among a number of other musicians who varied from album to album.

Boston experienced significant commercial success during the 1970s and 1980s. Their best-known songs include “More Than a Feeling”, “Peace of Mind”, “Foreplay/Long Time”, “Rock and Roll Band”, “Smokin’”, “Don’t Look Back”, “A Man I’ll Never Be”, “Hitch a Ride”, “Party”, “Amanda” and “Feelin’ Satisfied”. The band has sold more than 75 million records worldwide, including 31 million units sold in the United States, of which 17 million were the band’s debut album and seven million copies of the band’s second studio album, Don’t Look Back (1978), placing the group at #63 amongst the world’s best-selling music artists.

Altogether, the band has released six studio albums in a career spanning over 50 years. Boston’s recorded output has been minimal since the 1980s – with Third Stage, Walk On and Corporate America all released eight years apart, and the latter followed eleven years later by the band’s most recent album Life, Love & Hope (2013) – although they have continued to perform live and have occasionally been hinting at an upcoming seventh studio album.

Boston was ranked the 63rd-best hard rock artist by VH1.

After original longtime lead singer Brad Delp died in 2007, a number of vocalists have taken the stage, including Stryper frontman and vocalist Michael Sweet. Since 2007, Tommy DeCarlo has been the group’s lead singer. Other current members of the band include guitarist Gary Pihl, bassist Tracy Ferrie, drummer Jeff Neal and vocalist/multi-instrumentalist Beth Cohen.

Lyrics:

I looked out this morning and the sun was gone
Turned on some music to start my day
I lost myself in a familiar song
I closed my eyes and I slipped away

It’s more than a feeling
(More than a feeling)
When I hear that old song they used to play
(More than a feeling)
I begin dreaming
(More than a feeling)
‘Til I see Marianne walk away
I see my Marianne walkin’ away

So many people have come and gone
Their faces fade as the years go by
Yet I still recall as I wander on
As clear as the sun in the summer sky

It’s more than a feeling
(More than a feeling)
When I hear that old song they used to play
(More than a feeling)
I begin dreaming
(More than a feeling)
‘Til I see Marianne walk away
I see my Marianne walkin’ away

When I’m tired and thinking cold
I hide in my music, forget the day
And dream of a girl I used to know
I closed my eyes and she slipped away
She slipped away

It’s more than a feeling
(More than a feeling)
When I hear that old song they used to play
(More than a feeling)
I begin dreaming
(More than a feeling)
‘Til I see Marianne walk away
