Big Star - September Gurls (Official Lyric Video)

I commented the first verse on Naomi Yang’s post which was her teenage photo. I hope she liked it… .

Best rhythm guitar of the 70’s !!✨

But I’m a Cancer with a Virgo September Girl. Can’t send this to her. Goddamnit.

What a song.

September 2023. Still listening!

Pop music perfection.

The Searchers do a great cover of SG

The Replacements brought me here

AH, my favourite song...

Isn't it 'December boy's got it bad', a singular boy?

Customer.... I'm in Love... :)

♍️ Virgo woman - Sagittarius ♐️ man

I love this band, but I understand why they failed. It's a production problem imo.

Man i love alex's voice on this

Love Alex ( R.I.P.)

FREE PALESTINE NOW!!!!!!!!!!!

I wish i could isolate all the guitar layers. The more i listen to Big Star the more layers i hear.

big star possessed shimmering songs and in alex chilton a quixotic talent.

Man I LOVE that Byrds-y jangle!

Whomever did this Sagittarius Virgo in space video had some insights. And I don't even believe in astrology. If anything, I'm a Chinese rooster.

September Boy's also got it bad

Its like nirvana took ssri tablets

Could that strat be any quackier? Position 2, baby!😄

One of those songs that'll sound like it was written yesterday forever

Saw the black crowes at grand ole Opry as we waited for them to start they had mod lang and this one playing on there intro music hadn't listened to much big star in a few years now im hooked all over again from the 90s

Amazingly beautiful track ever....cried...at last.

So this is where the Bangle got this song. I think I'm going to like this group.

Damn! That might be my favorite rock and roll song ever! Alex hilton etc RIP!

One of the most perfect power pop songs ever! Those jangly guitars. This song just feels so so so good. Love it!

Sound like Teenage Fanclub

とても　素晴らしい曲です　簡素で美しい　大好きな曲

I'm in love ... with that song!

A song I love that I didn’t hear until the band broke up. Alex Chilton’s voice is wonderful.

This song breaks my heart every time. Beautiful!

Sublime.

I don’t care about celebrity deaths very much, but Alex Chilton’s death hit pretty hard.

It doesn’t get any better than this. A few years ahead of its time.

This was the song Alex Chilton thought would be a radio hit. Sadly their distribution agreement sucked and it never was launched in any major markets. All three albums they recorded are memorable.

The bass line is beautiful.

So glad the Bangles covered this and I found the original. A power pop gem! Shawn R., Mo-Mutt Music/Sacred & Secular

Perfect song

Alex Chilton was the December boy, born on December 28, 1950. He was the singer for The Boxtops at age 16 when he had his only #1 hit in 1967 with the song The Letter.

So chi-mee! Makes me want to grab my guitar and sing along while lying on my bed (and pretend I am a Big Star too). I can see how the Beatles influenced the Byrds, and later they in turn, influenced REM and Matthew Sweet, and others, and they influenced other bands. And hopefully this vid inspires some new young bands to keep this type of songwriting style going. There is still an audience demand for it today I am sure. Cheers.

Found out this was a single release in 1974. How did this get overlooked.??? This should of been a huge record. This song was far better than some of the schmaltz that was on the radio at the time.
