On Oct 22,1976, we went to see Black Sabbath, Boston opened for them. When they played it was like nothing we ever heard before, my friends, my girlfriend, my brother, and I were mesmerized, this band was HOT. The concert was 1 day before Boston released there first album, so this was a completely new sound. More Than A Feeling was the sound track for my Junior year of High School, and My girlfriend Kay and I was so in love, we were to be married after high school, and when we heard this song were thought we had "More than a feeling", a higher love.

We said our goodbyes, she walked off into the cold day, and the line "I saw my Marianne walking away" went through my mind. Every time I hear this song I see her walking down the street.

I was glad we caught up with each other, but I've lost her again, but I know she's in a better place. she said I...

@Robm123 Your commentary is moving. You encapsulate the nostalgic sadness of the song in your depiction of life's events.
