This has to be the best-rockin' tune Boston ever recorded! The song is not autobiographical, though, it's a fictional account of a band making it big. Boston was basically hatched by Tom Scholz and went, as far as I understand it, straight into recording rather than playing venues first.
I'm sorta mad I never got the words to the third verse right. I've always heard it as the man saying, "When I hear you all in Carnegie Hall," not "on the car radio." I kinda like the Carnegie Hall thing though because it makes the line rhyme. Oh well.
