Kicking off our list of the top 20 Chicago songs of all time is Poem 58. Contrary to what you’d expect from the title, the song isn’t in the least bit poetic… unless you consider Terry Kath shredding his way into the stratosphere with one of the deepest acid grooves on record poetic (and you’d have a point if you did). For the first five minutes ar...
After opening with a burst of vicious guitars, Old Days settles down into a Carpenter-esque nostalgia ride with chirping horns, lush strings, and wistful lyrics. It’s not a complete saccharine fest though, with the fuzzy guitar and thunderous organ supplying just enough beef to keep things moving.
Colour My World finds trombonist James Pankow getting creative with metaphors and using color to represent the love in his life. They’re pretty lyrics and Kath does them justice with his creamy vocals. The star of the show, however, is Walter Parazaider’s haunting flute solo, which adds just the right element of whimsical fancy to proceedings. Lamm...
Sure, it’s sappy, and sure, it’s very much a product of its time, but ’80s production values aside, You’re the Inspiration is a stunningly good song, with an immense chorus that’s impossible to resist. It dominated the airwaves in the 1980s, scoring the band a No. 3 hit on the Hot 100 and helping to shift millions of copies of Chicago 17.
In 1969, Chicago released Chicago Transit Authority, a sprawling, wonderful debut stuffed withexperimental rocksongs but completely lacking in hits. Their next album, Chicago II, was also experimental, but this time around, it managed to produce two top-10 singles. After that, the only way was up. By the time Chicago came round to releasing their t...
Hard to Say I’m Sorry was a runaway hit, spending two weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and earning the band their first top 50 hit since No Tell Lover in 1978. Which is nice and all, but with such huge success comes a problem – namely, how do you follow it? If you’re Chicago, you release a lean, mean piece of soft rock like Love Me Tomorrow....
Chicago’s debut studio album, Chicago Transit Authority, didn’t produce any hit singles, but that’s not to say it flopped. If anything, it flew, earning the band a Grammy Award nomination for 1969 Best New Artist of the Year and occupying a place in the Billboard Hot 200 for a record-breaking 171 weeks. It eventually certified double platinum and, ...
By 1973. Chicago were on the cusp of transitioning away from the hard rock experimentation of their earlier days into a more pop-centric sound. Feelin’ Stronger Every Day captures them at the turning point. It’s still fizzing with rock and roll energy, but there’s a new radio-friendly quality to the overall sound. Whether you approve of the change ...
As billboard.com says, Just You N’ Me is unquestionably Chicago’s greatest love song. According to Pankow, he wrote the song after an argument with his girlfriend. “We had a disagreement, and rather than put my fist through the wall or get crazy or get nuclear, I went out to the piano, and this song just kind of poured out,” he later recalled. Simp...
After building a reputation for their sprawling double albums (or, as in the case of their fourth album, quadruple albums), Chicago dialed things down for their fifth album. The single LP Chicago V is a tight, concise album that despite its relative simplicity, still manages to incorporate plenty of experimentation, including this very fine jazz-ro...

- “25 or 6 to 4” (from Chicago II, 1970) There’s a reason why Chicago has chosen “25 or 6 to 4” as its set closer for virtually every concert this century, including its dazzling Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction in 2017: It’s the band’s greatest song, a banner encapsulation of the rock, soul and horns sound that has brought the sprawling outfit immeasurable success over the last 50 years.
- “Hard to Say I’m Sorry” (from Chicago 16, 1982) With disco giving way to new wave and MTV redefining rock and pop stardom early in the decade, there was real reason to wonder if Chicago would be able to survive and thrive in the 1980s.
- “Saturday in the Park” (from Chicago V, 1972) Ah, the ultimate feel-good Chicago tune and one of the band’s calling-card songs, conjured from Lamm’s interpretation of film footage he’d shot in Central Park years earlier.
- “Does Anybody Really Know What Time it is?” (from Chicago Transit Authority, 1969) You’d never know it today, but when Chicago entered the studio to lay down “Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?”
