DJ Played LENGTHY-FORGOTTEN Song To Take a LONG Smoke Break…Went to #1 OVERNIGHT!-Professor of Rock

Описание: Back in the day if your song wasn’t under 4 minutes, it wouldn’t get played. In fact, if it was over 3 and half minutes it was a gamble. coming up next we are telling the stories of 5 songs that defied the odds and at over 7 minutes long made it to the Top 40. in fact a few of them became the biggest hits of the year they were released in. One by the Moody Blues may have invented prog rock and it was inspired by bed sheets. It failed when it was first released not even hitting the top 100 but then it went straight to the top of the charts 5 years later when a DJ played it so he could go take a long smoke break…and another by Iron Butterfly that came from the singer drunkenly slurring the words… They were written down incorrectly and people had no clue what he was saying so naturally it became a smash. And one from The Beatles where their singer dropped the F-bomb when he screwed up a line and it got left in and still went to #1 60 years ago! Stay tuned!

When it comes to the Billboard Hot 100, songs that stretch past 7 minutes are a rare breed. In fact, only a handful have ever made it into the Top 40. Most of the music that climbs the charts tends to be much shorter, because of radio airplay limits and the way streaming works today. But on this episode of Professor of Rock, we’re celebrating the exceptions. The greatest epic top 40 hits of all time!

We’re gonna kick off the countdown with a song that wasn’t a hit until it was released on a monumental double album of live recordings that was one of the biggest-selling records of the 70s. At #5 on our countdown of the Top 5 Hit Songs over 7 minutes, it’s “Do You Feel Like We Do” by Peter Frampton from Frampton Comes Alive! Do You Feel Like We Do, written and performed by guitarist, singer, and songwriter Peter Frampton, was originally released on his 1973 studio album Frampton's Camel. However, it wasn’t until the song became a staple of his live performances that it truly gained widespread attention.

It went on to become one of the three hit singles from his iconic 1976 live album Frampton Comes Alive!. The live version of the song was recorded on June 14, 1975, at the Winterland Ballroom in San Francisco, California: Peter & I talked about “Do You Feel Like We Do,”“Do You Feel Like We Do” was released as the third single from Frampton Comes Alive! in September 1976. On September 8, U.S. President Gerald Ford even invited Peter Frampton to stay at the White House, a gesture in recognition of the album’s phenomenal success.

"Do You Feel Like We Do" became the closing number of his set and one of the highlights of his show. His concert version was considerably longer, with the version recorded on Frampton Comes Alive! alone exceeding 14 minutes. While the song was edited for the 45 RPM single, and promo versions sent to AM radio stations, it still ran over seven minutes long: Frampton’s “Do You Feel Like We Do” reached #10 on the Hot 100, #7 in Canada, and #39 in the UK.
