Gen Z Musician First Time Reaction to Chicago - 25 or 6 to 4

This is a reaction video, a minor interest of mine these days. As the title says, we have a Gen Z musician reacting to a Boomer hit, Chicago's "25 or 6 to 4." This particular tune interests to me because I performed it many times back in the Ancient Days with the Saint Matthew Passion, a jazz-rock band in Baltimore based out of Johns Hopkins. Andiroo is himself a musician, keyboard and producer, so he loves making technical comments about the music. He obviously loves this tune, the intricate craftsmanship of it, as though that kind of intricate craftsmanship was a rare commodity in music.

To me, and the guys I played with, that's just how music is, and none of us were professional musicians. We were just college kids – well, young adults – performing music we loved. None of us regarded our own technical skill as particularly evolved, not on the level of Chicago. But we performed this tune, and others, well. To me, and many musicians I've played with since then, that's simply what music is about. No (particularly) big deal.
