Needs 1billion listens

The Dude, he will abide. And watch the sunrise.

So glad the Bangles covered this and I found the original. A power pop gem! Shawn R., Mo-Mutt Music/Sacred & Secular

Lost youth!

Lovely tune

Such a great song and production

This is a song - actually, this whole album - that is just waiting to be rediscovered through a placement in a scene with this song in the background in a hit movie/TV show.

Never travel far without a little Big Star.

The bass line is beautiful.

I'm driving alone Sad about you Not going home What's to do? You better not leave me here Better not leave me here Ooh, I want you here How can you leave me here? I lie in a stream And floating fine Receiving things In my beautiful mind Sometimes, oh, sometimes Sometimes, oh, sometimes Lover, yes I am Lover, you know I am, ooh Now I'm in a bar That's got to be where they are Going to dance in the bar They're going to fight on the floor Faster than I can see Now I gonna score Make for the door Who is this whore? Soon be beggin' drags And I'm thinking "Christ Nullify my life" Nullify my life, ooh You're going to die Yes, you're gonna die You're gonna die You're gonna decease

Try Kangaroo next.

so beautiful song ❤

Jim Reid brought me here

Hellooooooo, wisconsin!!!!!

This was the song Alex Chilton thought would be a radio hit. Sadly their distribution agreement sucked and it never was launched in any major markets. All three albums they recorded are memorable.

Je l'ai dit sur plusieurs réseaux sociaux et le redis : cette chanson a peut-être le meilleur pont du monde (à 2:01). D'où est-ce que sort ce truc ??

Beautiful

CHRIS BELL UNSUNG HERO of the 90s All the heavy hitters loved big star, thats what i mean by unsung hero of the 90s

On top of everything else - My God the acoustic guitar sound on this album!

WE LOVE YOU WISCONSIN

Is this not the most beautiful song ever? Hold on.

It doesn’t get any better than this. A few years ahead of its time.

I don’t care about celebrity deaths very much, but Alex Chilton’s death hit pretty hard.

Sublime.

When Paul Westerberg of the Replacements wrote the song, "Alex Chilton," this was the song he was thinking about. "I'm in love, what's that song? I'm in love with that song!" Funny story of how they met in New York...

This song breaks my heart every time. Beautiful!

🌠...Light of the big staR...🌠

ffs house

A song I love that I didn’t hear until the band broke up. Alex Chilton’s voice is wonderful.

I'm in love ... with that song!

Pop perfection.

That drum break at 1:42 with those cannon-shot snare blasts is 😌👌

とても　素晴らしい曲です　簡素で美しい　大好きな曲

Sounds like England Dan and John Ford Coley.

Sound like Teenage Fanclub

If you think that this album is difficult to find on vinyl, try looking for Radio City, their second album! Good luck with that! I've been trying to get ahold of a copy of the latter album for half a decade now, and it's even more difficult to find than #1 Record is, original vinyl or a reprint 😭

I never go far without a little Big Star 🌟

Funkeeeee!

This song makes me want to skateboard down a sunny street in ratty plimpsoles and bellbottom jeans \😸/

Season 3 😢😢😢😢 Otis and meave 😢❤

❤❤❤❤🥹

What an incredibly beautiful song. Just amazing. "Tell him what we said 'bout 'Paint It Black...' "

I like to think that the lyrics of this song depict the friendship between Alex Chilton and Chris Bell before things went south, like when Big Star was in its infancy.

This song was written about Viet Nam. But the words are great for keeping me sober.

Jimmy Chamberlain sent me on this journey!

One of the most perfect power pop songs ever! Those jangly guitars. This song just feels so so so good. Love it!

crushingly sad

Damn! That might be my favorite rock and roll song ever! Alex hilton etc RIP!
