The backing vocals on the verses are amazing.

This song is inspirational in my fight for sobriety. Can't thank them enough.
Melissa Shoshoo
Just, simply, one of the most beautiful songs ever written. Everything is so perfectly composed and recorded. Such a thing of beauty should be more well known. This song just sounds like heaven.
Yo-Yo Hart
you would need a hole in your heart for this to pass through and not feel something wonderful

wish Memphis would focus on more music like this.. RIP Alex

This is Power Pop and there's absolutely nothing bad in Pop Music when it becomes an Art (see Laura Nyro, Kate Bush, Bjork, Laurie Anderson, Todd Rundgren, Sparks, Slapp Happy, Scott Walker's early stuff and many other great artists...)

This should be Big Star's third (they already have two) song in Rolling Stone's top 500 rock songs of all time.

Lyrics
"The Ballad Of El Goodo"
Years ago, my heart was set to live, oh
And I've been trying hard against unbelievable odds
It gets so hard in times like now to hold on
But guns they wait to be stuck by, at my side is God
And there ain't no one going to turn me 'round
Ain't no one going to turn me 'round
There's people around who tell you that they know
And places where they send you, and it's easy to go
They'll zip you up and dress you down and stand you in a row
But you know you don't have to, you could just say no
And there ain't no one going to turn me 'round
Ain't no one going to turn me 'round
Ain't no one going to turn me 'round
Ain't no one going to turn me 'round
I've been built up and trusted
Broke down and busted
But they'll get theirs and we'll get ours if you can
Just-a hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Years ago, my heart was set to live, oh
Though I've been trying hard against strong odds
It gets so hard in times like now to hold on
Well, I'll fall if I don't fight, and at my side is God
And there ain't no one going to turn me 'round
Ain't no one going to turn me 'round
Ain't no one going to turn me 'round
Ain't no one going to turn me 'round
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on

One of the deepest songs ever written.
Patrick Lussier
Man, they had such a unique sound. Clearly of the 70's, but some other different kind of magic going on too. Pretty sublime.

This is heartbreakingly good. From a great band and an incredible album.

Big Star is easily one of the most underrated bands of all time. There's a certain timelessness and magic in their songs. This one is kind of an anthem for me; it's hopeful and charming. The chords along with Chilton's vocals are gorgeous.

good god this broke me down...heard it on the album, but wasn't sure of the title, so wound up here....listened on a Saturday morning, and it killed me. Just some of the absolute BEST songwriting and production I've ever heard...and I've been in the music business 38 years. I was in Memphis when all this was going on....and you couldn't get a copy of the album. The adults in all this failed these kids beyond measure.
Isabella Ingibina
I'm so grateful for this tune, helped me accept myself when I came to realization I was bisexual and just an awesome song from one of the greatest bands there ever was.
Siegfried Kraft
Teenage Fanclub brought me here.

The "hold on" segment is so plaintive I don't know how they managed to record it, I would have been crying so much that I couldn't sing.
