Hey guys, this was an interesting one!! What’s the next Jethro Tull song we need to check out?!?! What’s a track that’s got TOP CLASS FLUTE BANGER written all over it?!?! Let us know down below!!!

[deeasztalos]

I'm a 64 year old grandma and I grew up with this music. I am SO happy to see that you guys like the music from back in the day! I've subscribed and look forward to seeing more of your reactions!

The Aqualung character is being looked at from two perspectives, one being "look at that nasty, old homeless guy who is probably a pervert", the other being one of kindness and sympathy.

[Drummingvulture]

I just wanna say thanks to you two. I'm sixty-two years young, an old rocker from the early days of rock and roll. Whenever I watch you two, with your bobbing heads and closed eyes, hearing a great classic from the golden age of yesteryear, I feel almost the same way I did when me and my circle of friends would listen to a new album by a current artist. You find a groove and just let yourself go for four minutes, appreciating what the artist put out and what it took them to get it from their initial vision to their finished work.
So like I said, thanks.

Martin Barre's guitar playing really shines on this track. He's criminally underrated.

[robertcartier]

When you do study the lyrics, bear in mind that the two different singing styles are reflective of who is perceiving the homeless guy. Society's baseless slurs to more easily ignore the tragedy of his situation, or the person who actually knows he's harmless and deserving of pity rather than scorn.

[karlschempp]

Yes.. This song deserves a lyric analysis. Many British lyricists of this time had deep meaning writing skills.

[connieamos]

I went to one of their concerts in the 70's. It was so good, it was one of those rare times when everybody just shuts the hell up and sits down and watches the unbelievable talent of Ian Anderson. It was incredible.

[brt]

My perspective on the lyrics has changed over the years as I've gotten old myself. I think the creepy section of lyrics has more to do with the unfounded judgement and accusation of others toward an old homeless man, rather than his actual personal thoughts and motivations. This is clarified by the description as a poor old lonely person, in pain, dying, just trying to warm himself in the sun, by the person who knows him "it's only me".

[henrikeatworld]

After 11 listens you'll love this song. It's totally one of those songs that get better with listens.

[katec]

I had a seventh grade teacher who let us play rock albums in class. She brought this to class and proclaimed this was a masterpiece and played it for us!

[workingman]

The lead singer Ian Anderson was very theatrical on stage. Have to watch the live version!

[dusty]

"Feeling like a dead out pieces of his broken luck..." What can you say? Crazy lyrics. I like JethroTull.

[choppyer]

He has TB(Aqualung)The song is about the world just spinning around him while he is dying from the disease.The song is hard to listen to, but is beautiful at the same time.Thats my take.I remember when it came out, it was different.

[jccole]

" Cross Eyed Mary " All the way guys.

[johnmansell]

I bought this album days after it’s first release in 1971 in my youth, this was and still is a fantastic album and still play songs from it today. Love the flute and guitar work.

[sarahzentexas]

The guitar solo in this song is on my top 5 favorite guitar solos list. Martin Barre knew exactly what it needed, and he delivered. 🎸✌️❤️

[woodwind]

Guys, when you do Jethro Tull songs, getting the lyrics is absolutely paramount. Ian has made very few songs that are simple there to enjoy as music. (Disclaimer - until the 1990es) There ALWAYS is a story, a message to the songs, sometimes a whole album (TAAB, and even more weird, A Passion Play). If you get to see these songs as a whole, the musical dimenison suddenly fits. Just like getting a different perspective where the dots suddenly line up and you can see the shape. Yes, Tull mainly is an acquired taste - but a profound one. Absolutely worth doing if you are into deep, meaningful music.

[Drakijy]

I absolutely LOVED Alex's reaction to the end of the solo at 5:09! He was REALLY into that solo!

[kekkic]

Heartwarming to see the new generation appreciating classics like this. Thank you!!!!
