Unfortunately, this was probably one of the LAST TIMES that CHICAGO was a COHESIVE band. In 2022, two more veteran members have left. KEITH HOWLAND and LOU PARDINI. Very sad ! Perhaps it might be time for CHICAGO to call it a day and hang it up !

The Wife and I got to see them approximately 5 years ago, and Jeff Coffey had just taken over for Jason Scheff, so I didn't know what to expect. (Btw, been a fan from the very "Beginnings" in '69). I was very pleasantly surprised at how good of a job he did. Was he Peter Cetera? Has ANYBODY been a "Peter Cetera", or for that matter, has ANYBODY been a "Terry Kath"? - - The answer is "No'", on both counts, but taking into consideration that NOBODY could duplicate those musical shoes, Coffey did a fabulous job, and I was really sad to see him go, but he made the right choice in choosing his FAMILY over his career, so I highly respect him for that. Very good singer!! (Also sad that guitarist Keith Howland had to leave after so many years of faithful service, due to him breaking his arm, but fwiw, I felt that he did the best over-all job of replacing Terry, without "parroting" Terry)

I've been a fan of Chicago from the first album, unfortunately once a band meets father time they seem to have this revolving door of personel, not that they don't sound great(they still have enough of the core to sustain it) and Coffey sounded great but again he's gone. Lets hope the next singer can continue the great Chicago sound. Maybe I'm just living in the past.

Robert G. But still awesome and unique, songs and performances no other band has come close to since they formed over 50 years ago. Their seeming loss of greatness comes from their being phenomenal from the very start with their first album Chicago Transit Authority. Don't criticise them for now merely being excellent. By the way, name me one band that has maintained their original greatness over decades, let alone kept touring heavily to sold out crowds. The Rolling Stones? Nope, and they barely tour compared to Chicago. Aerosmith might be one but they're younger than Chicago and have had turnover in their supporting players as well.

It would've been great if he would've been able to cut an album with these guys. He left basically the same reason why Peter and Jason did, too much touring. They need more studio time to create new music every now and then. Chicago 37:Now was a great album, I want more new material.

I saw this song posted while Peter was still there singing this and Donnie Daccis (sp) was on guitar, and the comments were turned off. Hate that!! If there is criticism along with praise, I'd like to hear it, dammit! I wanted to know who wrote the song. On the version I saw, it sucked. Just grated on my nerves and clashed. Ugh! Maybe just bad 'room' acoustics. Blondie perm head, energizer show-boater boy on guitar just didn't 'cut the mustard' as they say. At least where Chi was concerned. His energy and calisthenics may have been better suited to another band. Had to have been near 1985 when Chris Pinnick and Peter left. Dreadful. That said: ~~~~~~~~~~~~ THIS ONE IS VERY NICE! I think Jeff Coffey was one of the best things to happen to Chicago in a long time and had it worked out stability and zen might have been restored to a once great band.. Great vocalist and musician. Wish he'd have stayed. Man the dude was fantastic! He would have soon found his wings and loosened up more, just as we saw Peter Cetera develop his stage presence so long ago. Enough w/ the lame Owen Wilson jokes. It is stupid, obviously childish, lame and inappropriate for it to be brought up a few times per video. So what, there are similarities there. Trouble is these 'jokes' often come off as veiled insult or in effort to diminish. Really? im,r. Grow up!

zaaz813 You Don't understand the song. They were going to break up until the then Tonight Show bandleader Doc Severinson convinced them not to. This song was specifically written to honor Terry Kath, his place in the band and to honor his memory and love of Chicago by not throwing it all away, as other bands did much to their later regret. It's saying that Terry would have wanted them to stay together. Watch some of the interviews with band members after Terry died where they say exactly this.

Chicago hardly stayed together after the death of Terry Kath because Doc Severinson convinced them to do so, potential future financial gain did that. They struggled for about four years before Peter Cetera and David Foster put them back into the game with Chicago 16 and 17.
