This was originally recorded by Badfinger but Harry Nilsson does the best version hands down.

You should check out Shirley Bassey's version live at Royal Albert Hall, she sings it a little different, but equally brilliant, she buries herself into the song, it's worth a watch anyway

I concur on that. Badfinger rocked it a little to much or fast.

Harry Nilsson's version of this song is so hauntingly beautiful. Other artists have done this song including Mariah Carey but her version to my ears is screechy and cannot hold a candle to this version. Nobody has sung this song better than Harry Nilsson. He made it his own.

Harry Nilsson is a singer songwriter who had his biggest success in the late 60's-70's. He has a lot of great songs such as "Everybody's Talkin'", "Me & My Arrow", "The Puppy Song", "The Moonbeam Song", "I Guess The Lord Must Be In New York City", "Jump Into The Fire", "Spaceman", "Coconut". Harry wrote the song "One" which was a big hit for Three Dog Night in 1969.

Without you. One of my all time favorites. Beautiful and a great reaction. . It has been covered by many artists. Written by Peter Ham of the group Badfinger and released in 1970. Harry Nilssin was the 1st to cover it in 1971 and Yes, Mariah Carey in 1993.
@ultimatespinach Жыл бұрын
Thanks for this lovely reaction Sarah. Harry Nilsson was a such a treasure, he was a brilliant singer/songwriter. This is a heartbreaker of a song and it really showcased his creative genius. Unfortunately, Harry left us too early, he certainly had much more to contribute before his untimely passing at the age of 52 in 1994. Cheers from Ontario Canada!

You can't make these sounds if they aren't inside you. The video flashes stills of Harry and he looks so non-descipt, so ordinary. Then he opens his mouth and these sounds of despair and lament come flooding out. What an extraordinary expression of sadness. It was all in my heart, but my heart couldn't sing it. Thank you Harry!

Love Harry Nilsson! He wrote most of his own songs, and had an incredible voice when younger. He had a wide range of styles to his writing. Some are pretty hilarious, like “Put the Lime in the Coconut”,l a video which is available on YT. You should check it out, and maybe even review it. “Without You”, was showcased in the movie, “Son of Dracula”, with him playing it on the piano. About the only good part of this movie, in which Ringo Starr plays Merlin the magician. Thanks for sharing.

@KevyNova5 ай бұрын
Harry didn’t steal it, he covered it. There is a HUGE difference. A cover is when you give the original author(s) credit, which Harry did. Stealing a song is when you do someone else’s song but give yourself credit for writing it, like Led Zeppelin did many times.
