Roskilde festival. I will never forget it

Heads Or Tales Is A Fantastic Great Album By Saga And Is A Wonderful Masterpiece From Saga. God Bless Saga The Greatest Rock Band From Canada And In Modern Society.

Scratching The Surface Is A Great Song And Fantastic Wonderful Masterpiece By Saga.

Magnificent song from start to finish!

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! HEADING TO PUNTA CANA TO SEE THESE GUYS!! 80'S IN THE SAND!!! check out my show , if you like -* WAXX TRAXX TO THE MAXX ON WUSB.FM (https://www.facebook.com/groups/347984475712958/)

Heard this in the pub today for the first time in about 20 years, still fucking awesome.

thank you

grossartig !

Mon premier disque vynil que j'ai acheté...😍😍😘

Great band ever.

Hammer Song 😁 😄 😎 🍸

good for canadians.........

J'aime beaucoup merci

Great memories for me 82 years for me inforgettablTANKs!

A truly talented group -- good to listen to their catalogue again.

I liked his guitar sound with Gibson and strat..in the old days better.. warmer..

Simply a fine piece of music..2019 are you ready...

Great song, but what is up with the guitar at 3:34? So mysterious and amazing

Nothing happens,man!Seriously,what's so mysterious and amazing there?!

@BAZ INGA it sounds like some weird beast, 3:34-3:57. The guitar near the end of "The Pitchman" is another great example, 4:27 there

one of Canada’s best exports along with Rush , Max Webster , Triumph , Prism ..to name a few !! 🇨🇦✌🏻👍🏻

Large memories of the past early 80s, like a time machine.

Timeless quality!

So so good album

SAGA ❤

A very underrated band! Seen them alot in THE 80s AND in 90s great MUSICIANS AND great music!!!

Saving my life, some decades ago.

damn right best band ever..... I remember these guys when I was 10 years old and am47 now..... Still as good now as they were then.... That's got to tell you something- lucky we had them

Simply awesome, total audio pleasure.

One of the most beautiful songs you'll probably hear in your life

ohMYgod, first time since I was15 - 35 years ago ! Very moving, strucked by nostalgia :)

Absolutely Greatest...

This is one of my favorite LP's to play. YES! I have this on Vinyl!

Saga are a great band. Giving them a chance, and liking what I am hearing. Canadian band too. Woohoo!

My first vynil disk buy....remender :)

Saga could never have imagined how relevant this song would be in the age of social media addiction.

Canadian art and style. Ahead of their time!!

awesome playlist , thank you !

Saga personifies where keyboard based bands should have gone. Instead we have...well you know

Why are Canadian bands always that underrated. Anyone know The Tea Party - another style but absolutly great.

The box would certainly be in the underrated category.

Loved the Tea Party, Headstones, Streetheart, Rhymes with Orange, Triumph... I could go on and on. Life is short, crank the volume!

Surprised he didn't sing more songs and as great as Sadler is Jim has a great but different voice!

Wow...I lost it...but now I found it again...thank you sooo much!!!

Apprecitate, and also thanks.

This is good stuff

Absolutely stellar guitar work, on this piece... This guy's TONE... just screamingly magnificent. Played to perfection.

격이 다름

Bought alot of Canadian records in the early 80's
Signals by Rush, Heads or Tails by Saga, One false move by Harlequin and listened to 92 Citi Fm!! The best prairie rock station of the day!

the best album?

A great song from a great album.

GRATOS RECUERDOS CON LOS ÉXITOS DE ESTA EXTAORDINARIA BANDA DE ROCK CANADIENSE CON SU TEMA RASPANDO LA SUPERFICIE

I still have most of their albums. Never got bored of listening to them. Crackling sound included.

I wish Spotify had these Saga songs. All they have is live.

Drugs. Media

This song gives me chills! I love it.

I HAVE LOVED THIS BAND SINCE 1981.. AND THIS MORNING i GOT A SOUND BITE FROM THEM FOR MY RADIO SHOW.. WUSB 90.1 FM NY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Une super ``toune`` d`été en roulant à vélo, le vent dans les cheveux, le soleil dans les yeux, la joie dans le cœur. Thank you Saga. Up to the sky ....

awesome is right..... Probably my favorite Canadian  band. Underrated? You're damnright- but then again what is really good is never appreciated in its own time

Proud to be a Canadian ! ! ! And yes,we do have some of the best born and bred bands in Canada.Two thumbs up Saga

Seen them live at Maple Leaf Gardens amazing,

Brock University and a bar in Chicago earlier!!

Great song from a great album!

Jim also sang lead on "No Regrets (Chapter V)" from _Worlds Apart._

If there was a Saga song playing during a GTA video game commercial, it would be Scratching the Surface.

Looking forward to the farewell show in Oshawa tonight!

Produced by Trevor Horn who also produced Yes on their Big Generator album. He does these big productions that have rich treble dominated producing which is masterful when he does the right band. I think he also did The Fixx on the record that featured Secret Separation.

It's Rupert Hine, actually, who did also produce The Fixx from '82 to '86.

This is lush, airy, meloncholy, soundscape music. I have always loved SAGA for that very reason. I never knew the keyboard player sang this song.

c'mon man ...this is shit..Bob Dylan ..Zep....everybody else???..Saga ?? Really? jesus Christ!

and you're a fucktard

What an incredible band!! Love their music!!

yes, they just retired, i thank them for all their great music.

I Love This Band

Harald Jensen Gade 2 - 1990 - After a long period of wonder and a kind of horror I was distress to cover my windows with cardboard because I thought it was scary to sun In my world, I had popularized neon white so I was home from work in 1990 In the spring of March Month and finally had my mother forced hospitalize me because I had the "little" hardtime because sun was Neon White and did wonder how far away can you see an Ever Sun (horror)(after the year 1989 the day before I went to work I had eaten 500-600 Fluphenazine pills and there were therefore static spark on my right Index finger and something light flew out of me when I got the static spark at my finger Shock gOT VERY badly and thought I closed my eyes I would Die instantly(Quite SCARY)) and therefore tried desperately to forget it because no one around here says STILL they do not kNOW about the sun is Neon colored and I show them and they say "Bananarama Viva 2009"? (That the RIDICULOUS sun is VERY CLEARLY NEON WHITE YOU ACT LIKE A FOOL) (Bananarama Viva 2009)

10 Million Dollars NOT transferred = Man has found an Improved Version of Mads Hutters and I would become NOTHING !! (Bananarama Viva 2009+ Power Windows 1985 Rock band RUSH) (DO YOU THINK GODDESS OF LIFE WOULD DO SOMETHING TO YOU LIKE YOU ACT LIKE A FOOL) (RUSH canadian rock Emotion Detector=Humans are too awful UGLY to Ever be kissed of Me again)

I love the vocals on this song.

Gilmour could've sung a few more songs.

Such a great album...Every song delivers great feelings from start to finish.

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

don't scratch the surface of this album!

No running in the living room, please. Thank you.

Saga - The Flyer

Another great tune that was horribly under-rated......sigh.

it was not underrated. i was a teen in the 80's and lived in this era and believe me they were not underrated. went to one of their concerts and it was packed! you had to live in that era to know they were huge for that time.

I hear ya brother

@Bazooka Joe being a new Yorker on the border, we were blessed w cdn radio. So many good bands,
Harlequin, streetheart, rational youth, and many more that didn't make it too well on this side. I was blessed as a teenager. My tastes have changed but memories and strolls back to the past forbid me from forgetting these bands

oahhhh !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ca fait au moins 25 ans que j ai plus ecouté ce groupe merci..............

Ahhh, back in the day when you got a new album or cassette, put it on, and listened to it from the first track to the last and enjoyed every minute of it.  And then did it again...and again...for about 4 days.  Then, you still listened to it off and on for a couple of years.  I don't think my daughter has listened to the same song for more than about a month since 2010.

Times have change man,young kids yo day OMG.

Help!!! I keep listening to this over and over and I'm not getting tired of it :-) It's put me in the best mood I've been in a month! [Edit] I used to do lucid dreaming (and would like to again, circumstances permitting), and after a bit of reflection I realized that this sounds like something that would be very much at home in a LD :)

This theme seems have been created by an extraterrestrial inspiration. I can not find any previous influence. It´s incredible.

See you in heavens LEGAL  At one time or another you said Skizo vote for Mr Mads Hutters your soul Burn away in HELL !! ( SAGA )

somewhere there mid-80's...I so loved this song.....

+Beth Dupont Me to, beutiful song

heard this song when i was 12 years old in my dads sound room. still listening now at 20! beautiful song. that solo though.. CRANK IT!

If my memory serves me correctly, but I believe that this song was on the hit parade back during the spring of 1984 (when I was a Grade 8 student over at Bliss Carman Senior Public School out in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada).

I miss album cover art.

I'm a retro guy. I love the old cassette tape units and record players. I have a cool turntabel that is fully automatic. Still, you had to really work to play the vinyl.

8th grade memories for me... I wish i could go back there for just one day..

+blica1 I would try and hump every girl there, even the fatties

+aegisgfx Funny how time makes you realize all the things you passed up that would have good for you.

+blica1 Same here, the god old days :=)
Just one day, PLZ

@Bob Kidd Like humping the fatties!!

PEDOPHILE

love this group

Me too.....😍

Yes 😁 😃 😎 😍 🍸

I searched this song for 30 years.

I've been listening to this song for 30 years and can't get enough of it.Have a few of their albums.

Saw these guys  last Saturday at the Phoenix in Toronto, they were as amazing as the first time i saw them 35 years ago. Definitely a memorable show. Had a great time, left with a huge smile once again Thank You Saga, you never disappoint
.

Saw them there 24th Feb 2018 at their last ever show....Phoenix, Toronto :-)

the phoenix is still around?!

Haven't even begun to scratch the surface. 

What's really appreciated is, you include the date of release which few posters ever do.  My CD was destroyed and now, thanks to you, this tune at least, is back in my collection. Thank you.
