Chicago – 25 or 6 to 4 (86 Remix) (Europe 12″)

Burning The Ground Exclusive 1986

“25 or 6 to 4” is a song written by American musician Robert Lamm, one of the founding members of the Rock band Chicago. It was originally recorded in 1969 for their second album, Chicago, with Peter Cetera on lead vocals.

An updated version of “25 or 6 to 4” was recorded for the 1986 album Chicago 18 with James Pankow listed as co-writer, and new band member Jason Scheff on lead vocals. It featured two verses instead of three. The single reached number 48 on the US Billboard Hot 100 Single’s Chart. This version was also used as the B-side for the band’s next single in 1986, “Will You Still Love Me?”

The music video for the 1986 remake won an American Video Award, in the Best Cinematography category, for Bobby Byrne.
