But it's going to feel funny being 75 or 80 and listening to the Raspberries. My parents came up during the tail end of the Big Band era. That was the music that still held a special place in their hearts. But *we're* going to be some really weird, strange, freaky "old folk"!

I don't think it's underrated, this was the standard back in the day. Sadly, we're a couple generations away from 'bands'. What a golden era.

AM radio fans loved Raspberries music in the 70's. I was at Charlotte High School in Rochester, NY in the 1970s when the Raspberries came out. I still remember buying their first self-titled "Vinyl" album with the "Scratch and Sniff" sticker on the front. Yes, if you scratched it, it smelled like Raspberries! They had a lot of great songs but my two favorites were, "I Can Remember," and "If You Change Your Mind." I had lost a high school sweet heart back then, and it seemed every one of Eric's words resonated with the feelings I was going through. After Eric left the band for his solo career in the late 1970s, I believe it was the Summer of 1975, I saw the remaining band with Wally Bryson on lead guitar, doing a show at the Hilton High School gymnasium in Hilton, NY. The Raspberries were Great with Eric and Eric had many hits alone and it was great they re-united in the later years to do great shows together again. Thanks for a Great "live" song, Thanks Eric, Thanks Raspberries for Great memories... ♥✝🙏

It blows me away..It seems that after the first 2 lines, there should be a 3rd and 4th line, like in mostly all songs... but Eric breaks into the chorus right away instead. It's fucking brilliant. Gives the song a ton more energy that the song might not have had if he didn't write it like that. And he does it again on the last verse also.. Am I crazy, or does anyone else out there see what I think I mean?

Great pop tune, I remember it when it was new! This group was one of the tightest, most under rated bands of their time. Excellent vocal harmonies, wonderfully together overall. Also, the Rickenbacker 360/12 played with some distortion sounds incredible. It amazes me that even with distortion, the characteristic jangley/chimey sound still cuts through (I think the toaster pickups have a lot to do with this).

Context: this is performed in the studio, thankfully without backing (canned) tracks. I love that the backing vocals are well-captured and demonstrate that the entire band could deliver that rich, beautiful sound of the record. I've yet to see a really good live recording of them that captures the harmonies. It could be that they didn't do them this well in a real-world live environment for technical reasons. The Beatles often managed to do so by sharing microphones, ensuring a good mix and monitor environment.
