Lyrics Biggest Part Of Me

Throughout most of the 70's Ambrosia was a progressive rock band. In 1976, Ambrosia remade the Beatle's song "Magical Mystery Tour" for a movie called "All This And World War II". There's also a soundtrack album featuring other artists doing covers of Beatles songs.

Ambrosia's biggest pop breakthrough came in 1978 with the number three hit "How Much I Feel." The band followed this success in 1980 with another number three hit, "Biggest Part of Me," and the number 13 follow-up "You're the Only Woman."

The fourth album from Ambrosia, One Eighty, was released in 1980, and changed direction from progressive rock to mainstream pop music. This album earned the band three Grammy nominations, including Best Pop Vocal Group. The title of the album is believed to signal the group's 180 degree change in musical direction.

Ambrosia's fifth album Road Island was released in 1982. The album was poorly received by critics and fans alike. In the wake of the album's disappointing performance, the band broke up.

Enjoying Ambrosia

I live in New Zealand and getting hold of Ambrosia CD's has been hard. I have had their best of for a while but just managed to get hold of the One Eighty and Life Beyond LA CD's and I am really enjoying them. Great

Ambrosia!

I was lucky enough to get to see them in a small arena years ago - (think it was the 70's) Words can't even describe how awesome! These guys make real music. Being a musician, I have to say extremely talented - beyond! David Pack is one of my favorite hands down. I'd like to see them make a comeback on the airwaves, because our youth need to experience them. They will still be timeless. Both thumbs up!

I'm only 18 years old and I heard one of their songs for the first time the other night while listening to a smooth jazz radio station (105.9), the name of the song was "That's How Much I Feel", All I'm going to say is that the very next day, the song was on my ipod!!! I absolutely Love them!!!!
Great Band! :)

Mr.

Ambrosia has some pretty cool tunes! As the bass player for Aspen, I've had the wonderful opportunity to play with Burleigh Drummond their drummer at a couple of venues including the Canyon Club in Augora Hills...as a matter of fact I get to play with him tomorrow nite at Brixton South Bay in Redondo Beach. Rock on Burleigh!

Now it's OUR SONG!

My Susan and I saw Ambrosia open for Atlanta Rhythm Section last summer at a festival in Cincinnati. Frankly, Ambrosia blew them away! It was interesting to watch the ARS band members watching Ambrosia on stage and looked like they were in awe! The talent level and vocals were amazing. Now, Biggest Part of Me is "our song" as we celebrate our 5th anniversary and "wash away the past so that we can start anew". Come back to Cincinnati guys. We'll be there!

AMBROSIA VIDEO ON YOUTUBE

Hello!
I am glad for the existence of AMBROSIA; but I am sad, because I can´t view an excellent video that was retired of You Tube: over the theme NICE, NICE VERY NICE.
I think that this is a marvelous video (identified with somebody washing his hands) for the correspondence between the lyrics and the images!!!
Somebody knows what can i do to find it?

Me

Enjoyed Ambrosia at Ebbets Field club in Denver, '73, I believe. I have fond memories of that great show, which I believe may have been simulcast on a local for a while, which did the sound. I had just arrived from New Orleans, and could not believe my good fortune in being there for the Ambrosia show. Wonderful, wonderful group, enormous talent. David, I am happy you are a Christian!

Me

Enjoyed Ambrosia at Ebbets Field club in Denver, '73, I believe. I have fond memories of that great show, which I believe was probably simulcast on a local rock station. Eventually I worked for Listen Up for a while, which did the sound. I had just arrived from New Orleans, and could not believe my good fortune in being there for the Ambrosia show. Listen Up used Ambrosia albums constantly to demo the best stereo equipment because the albums were exquisitely produced and the songs were/are beautiful. Wonderful, wonderful group, enormous talent. David, I am happy you are a Christian!

Greatest vocals

I have loved Ambrosia since they started.In the '70's I was a stay at home mom and always listened to Ambrosia through out the days, in bed to fall asleep, in the car!LOVE David Pack's voice!He is the most amazing singer that ever lived. As far as I am concerned the best music was in the '70's. The fashions may have been funny looking when you look back, but the music was definitely the best.You could understand the words! LOL No screeching metal and non-decipherable singing!No filth and threatening words, no disrespect for women, wanton sex, idolizing drugs, gang and gangsta lyrics.
The music in the '70's was pure, songs
you could listen to constantly, music that made you feel good, etc.It's nice to hear that the younger generation today really enjoy Ambrosia and other '70's music.I have 2 grown daughters ( no grandkids) who also love the music of the '70's. Ambrosia is the best with the greatest vocalist (David Pack) ever!

I love Ambrosia..."How Much I Feel" is my favorite, however, all of their music is great. Wish they would have more concerts for those who love them so much.
