[@Soybananas]

RIP Steve, thanks for the music 😥

[@rony0002]

Indeed, R.I.P. Steve.

[@Funbundle44]

Another one lost to us. The trouble is us oldies (I'm nearly 80) are having to get used to seeing the greats disappear from earth, but not our memories. Keep on rocking up there, Steve!

[@JimTsoukas]

Mate, Im a bit younger but I broke down when I heard he passed. Another part of my youth gone.

[@barricadeish]

Trouble is there’s nothing to replace them .

[@PeterSokol-bl5vz]

Keep on rocking up there Steve….grow up….pay the man his respect…he is not rocking anywhere…he is getting the very good long sleep he deserved for such a beautiful life he led.

[@sebastianunited1397]

I had no idea Steve had passed away until I read this. Gutted, I’m 23 and loved cockney rebels and also Steve’s solo career. Come up and see me make me smile, my all time favourite. Rip Steve

i m german, but this song is with me since 35 years.. make me smile and cry because this type of Music will never come again

[@westboundbadger]

Just smile !!,...Todays music is for todays people,..We are from a better time !

[@keithbate9405]

@@westboundbadger When this was released in 1975 . The older people from the 1960's era said that modern music (eg this) was vastly inferior to the music they had been brought up in the 60's ps plenty of great modern music eg LP "lost on you" , The Kills "Black tar"

[@brendadrumm9708]

God bless it's good to know music effects people all over the world nothing better than music xx

[@catadanna4679]

We still have this music as you can see. Here, for example and as long as these people are still alive and we can go and see them live.

[@frankfrischmuth6820]

Hardy Graul ich bin auch ein Deutscher und dieser Song von Steve Harley begleitet mich auch schon ewig, einfach genial. Ich fand Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel schon seit weit über 30 Jahren genial in der wilden Sturm und Drang-Zeit einfach geil !!!!

[@James-e3j3b]

Amazing tune! Loved how his voice as a youth and then a oldie changed! Still sounded great both ways. Pure class RIP!

[@MichaelCampin]

Never to be forgotten, RIP Steve Harley yet another legend taken from us

This was the song playing in the delivery suite when my son was born in 2003. It means so much much to myself and my wife.

[@Bench400at57]

I learned this song word for word while I was locked down in St. Albert Alberta Canada. The first 3 month lockdown in bar 2020. I play it all the time. It got me thru all that madness.

[@wthornton7346]

How has this song got better and better over the years?!

[@shevetlevi2821]

I'm 66 and just found this song recently. Love it and great to see older rockers doing well.

[@hiphopapotamus69]

Where the hell were you in the 70s!!lol...im 35 and I was there 😂 least you found it though

[@trollmeistergeneral3467]

I don’t believe you. You say that you found this song “recently,” 3 yrs ago when you were 66. Let say you were born around 1955. You would have been about 20 when this song was first released - when Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel went to the top of the charts. So don’t give us any rubbish that you don’t remember the song when it was first released. You were 20 yrs old then, not 20 months.

[@annuvynarawn392]

still one of the most stellar guitar runs in brit pop of any era. short but sweet. To SH, respect, even from an ancient cursed to immortality, your heart is in the right place and you helped us all out.

[@jamesnorris7274]

Great song, I have never grown tired of listening to it since its original release in 1975. I was impressed that he can work a crowd - not any easy thing to do.

[@ianwebster3489]

Saw him in '02 at a free festival as an angsty 16 year old, dressed in baggy jeans with a big chain and spikey nu-metal hair. I was just passing through, but he was playing Make Me Smile (a favourite in Dad's car when I was a little 'un) and did the same sort of crowd work. I wasn't angsty at that moment, it was fucking wonderful. I can't possibly ever feel bored of this song.

[@zoravovk4906]

R.I.P. Steve. I don't believe❤💔

[@sarahjanebranigan2334]

Steve harley has a great voice and da music is just brilliant

[@silvanyferreiradesouza2348]

I love that song and Steve is as good as ever!

[@RETR0JOE]

Actually gutted, I didn't even knew he passed until i read the comments. Thanks for making us all smile Steve, we will all come up and see you soon.

[@FestivoTV]

Steve is still bringing the magic!

[@Merlinthehappypig]

+FestivoTV Not really

[@502waf]

+FestivoTV Other than he can't remember the words and keeps changing key continually.

[@allangmiller]

Don't think he changes key. Doesn't follow the record note for note, true. Sings the refrain an octave up too. I've found it works better that way live meself - doesn't cut through otherwise, without female backing singers! I think this is a great version.

[@B0rnles13]

Yes, still a great invocation to the Green Man!

[@barnyardstory]

He can't sing, never could. But he's still funking awesome.

[@maggieeggleton3108]

its so good to witness a once pasty, skinny, spaced out looking and sounding 70's stooge become a thoroughly wholesome and respectable and distinguishably handsome rounded, full of life, mature male of the 21st century! lol. it proves that all things are indeed possible! lol :-). classic tune. always makes ME smile :-)

[@jonjotatty957]

So much admiration to this wonderful man after so many years plagued with illnesses which he never talks about. Great voice and superb backing band.

[@lindagardener855]

Whaaat?! He was gorgeous!💖💖💖💖

what an amazing performance,,he just gets better and better

I was on concert with this man in Bergen Norway it was magic.

[@mwc6397]

He's brill and always will be one of my teenage heart throbs ..love you Steve x

[@Vot63]

On the original he sang in a more contrived, self consciously "pop" way, but this is sensational and better; his voice is much better now than it ever was. Brilliant!

[@BroadThinker11]

Yeah,I thought along similar lines but NO WAY I would recognise him as his younger self .Just sad to see people grow old actually .

[@petercallaghan9851]

Moonlighter avoid mirrors.

[@FestivoTV]

Vot63 Agreed. His voice is better than ever don't you think?

[@Vot63]

FestivoTV Yes, I agree, he's just singing a song, not performing in the role of a pop persona.

[@Vot63]

ShadeyBladey Yeah! Great contribution mate.

[@SagaciousFrank]

What a song, amazing live version.

[@edhubble]

Such a great singer/songwriter/musician deserves more respect.

Never heard this song before today as part of a 70s playlist; man I freaking love it! I was 7 at the time it came out.

[@dennispicone6801]

One of the biggest hits of 1975. I was 13.👍😁🤣🍺

[@chrisriedel9365]

Old skippy here loving this wishing kids today would appreciate what real feel good music was about

[@Trowblood]

Only Steve Harley could play this song better than Steve Harley did.

[@edoardoburlini8394]

You said it, man.

[@trollmeistergeneral3467]

RIP Steve Harley. What a great song this was in the early 1970s. Truly wonderful. But what I didn’t know then, although have since learned, was that Steve Harley didn’t exactly have the best of relationships with the other members of Cockney Rebel. Oh well, Steve has now gone and one must not speak ill of the dead.

[@briansewart5885]

When you spend so much time with others, and the creative differences start, money is involved, other people are involved, gruelling schedules, illness, spotlight on everything publicly said... it is a melting pot for issues. many bands have had this problem. Some of my best friends were also assholes at times. some good still comes though, like this song. I read this song was kind of about Steve saying "well if it is so good out there, then go out there and prove it" anyway the song Rocks, and has an awesome solo.

[@rodneyworth01]

What a legend.One of the best ever written songs & the most underrated singer of all time. He has so much respect for people & acknowledges his band members in the song when they impressed him.

[@MultiRick999]

Everytime when I feel down I put this on. Loud! Thanks Steve.

[@gwentaylor9801]

Love this song one of the best never tire of it especially the original 1975 version where have all those years gone,

Awesome, sounds fantastic Steve

[@Sbudre]

This is what I believe is referred to as flawless execution

[@DougieL]

You think this is flawless? Find the version he did on an Aussie show Rockwiz. It is fantastic. Imho: amazing backing singers and a fantastic guitar solo.

[@Sbudre]

@@DougieL I agree that version is truer to the recording (and probably better on technical aspects including his singing, his voice is much smoother there), and those backing singers are lovely. That guitar solo is great as well. But this has touches of magic I can't explain, the pacing, that organ in the climax, this guitar solo is flawed, but man does it climax beautifully.

[@jontaylor1652]

Brilliant, he was awesome from the start and he'll carry on being awesome.... Steve Harley you are excellent dude!
