The unlikely worldwide smash that transcended prog-rock and became a stadium chant, driven by a demonic yodelling vocal and a searing guitar solo.
- Although primarily instrumental, the track features a brief, bizarre vocal section performed by guitarist Jan Akkerman.
- The single reached number 20 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number 1 in both the Netherlands and the UK.
- A quadraphonic version of the song was included on the band's 1973 album 'Focus 3'.
Focus hailed from Amsterdam, pioneering a symphonic progressive rock sound that drew comparisons to King Crimson and Yes. By 1973, they had already achieved significant European success with their intricate instrumental arrangements and Thijs van Leer's distinctive flute work.
