(I always thought it was Young Boy singular but the poster on Youtube seems to be in the know about the band and posted it as Boys.)
A period piece from 1982 from Syracuse band 805. I really like this song. Today we would describe it as progressive or "proggy", in this case because of its highly precise orchestration, especially in the instrumental section. Never saw these guys live. I was too young. But there were a lot of bands in western NY that were trying to achieve this kind of sound. Songs like this had to be pulled off exactly the same way every performance and every fan of progressive bands like this (supreme example = Rush) knew every single lick of every beat and measure of the song and expected no alterations. Very interesting looking back on this sound and era.
