I Want To Make The World Turn Around - Steve Miller Band. HD

The Steve Miller Band is an American rock band formed in 1967 in San Francisco, California.[1] The band is managed by Steve Miller on guitar and lead vocals, and is known for a string of (mainly) mid-1970s hit singles that are staples of the classic rock radio format.
In 1965, Steve Miller and keyboardist Barry Goldberg founded the Goldberg-Miller Blues Band along with bassist Shawn Yoder, rhythm guitarist Craymore Stevens, and drummer Lance Haas after moving to Chicago to play the blues. The band was contracted to Epic Records after playing many Chicago clubs. They also appeared on Hullabaloo with the Four Tops and the Supremes, and gigged at a Manhattan club.

Such a good message...and a phenomenal song

When you play a guitar solo as though it were a sax and a sax solo as though it were a guitar, magic happens.

The first time I heard this was on an episode of Miami years ago lol.

[keithhoffman]

A very under appreciated band that created some of the best songs we all know and love dearly.

[sylvatica]

I rate this as a true rock classic, certainly one of Steve Miller's best songs

[Jeffagarcia]

This message should be played 24 hours a day until we all go insane or we make the world turn around...Powerful Message

[bigcatdaddy]

Awesome song! Remember listening to it when I was 16 years old.

I don't want to live in a world of darkness
I want to live in a world of light
I don't want to live in a world that's heartless
I want to live in a world of sight
Well you know, I want to make the world turn around

Living in a world of justice
Living in a world of shame
Living in a world of freedom
Living in a world of pain
Well you know, I want to make the world turn around

Turn the darkness into light
Turn the hunger into life
Turn the wrong into right
Put an end to the strife
Turn the blindness into sight
Save a human life
Make the world turn around

I want to live in a world of gladness
I want to know what your heart is made of
Don't want to live in a world of sadness
I want to live in a world of love
Well you know, I want to make the world turn around

Living in a world of justice
Living in a world of light
Living in a world of freedom
Living in a world of sight

I want to send a message
To every boy and girl
I want to send a message
About the world
We got to build it up
Stop tearing it down
We got to build it up
Make the world turn around

Steve Miller was always the cool uncle you wanted to have as a kid

This hit from The Steve Miller Band was heard on the Miami Vice episode, Down for the Count: Part 2, which aired on January 16, 1987. Miami Vice will always be one of my all time favorite shows. It was the first to combine MTV with police action drama.

Its in my will I want this played at my funeral.

[hyperdrive]

I’m a huge Steve Miller fan, so I was shocked when I found out they had a song top the rock airplay chart for SIX WEEKS that I had never heard of. I guess people didn’t like this song for whatever reason.. I have to beg to differ! Definitely one of the best I’ve heard from them. I love their more psychedelic/bluesy stuff

[TheDEATHSTARIII]

my God the saxophone as well as the rest of the song is amazing

[joefox]

Thanks for posting Maria. Lets join the movement towards goodness

[wizkid]

some productions are just masterpieces. I consider this as one of the best by Mr. Steve Miller

[betofogo]

The episode with zito just came on tonight and this was played towards the end. Took me back on memories. All the music on Miami Vice did that for most of us.
