Hazel O'Connor -- Will You ( Live at The Brighton Concorde 2004)

[@johnk.2508]

I'm a 58 year old American who has loved this song for roughly 45 years. Most Americans don't know Hazel or this song, but as an early teen I had to spend a couple of days in the hospital for a minor surgery. I loved music, so my parents bought a couple rock magazines and a book called Breaking Glass to read while in recovery. I loved the book and ended up reading it several times. Then one day I was lucky enough to find Hazel's soundtrack to the movie Breaking Glass. I absolutely loved the album, especially Will You. Then, being in pre-internet America I had to wait several years to finally see the movie. It seems that people usually move away from older songs, only to return to give them an occasional listen. But with Will You, I have listened to it steadily for nearly my whole life. How can I not? It's an amazing song.

[@frankmuller6291]

Geht mir auch so. 🙂

[@deborahwyndham-lewis5188]

Me too! This song is what moved me to learn the saxophone when I was younger and I get goosebumps when I hear it

[@stewartyoung3061]

The Album and film were a head of there time if you listen to the lyrics, My favourite's are Will you and The Eighth Day

[@benjones5819]

[@johnniesmith6872]

Class is permanent and this song has longevity what a combination

[@SC-jh9qp]

I thought, oh this is different from the original. Then I thought, well it still sounds good. Then I thought, I love it, it's superb. 😍

[@gavinrogers1968]

This is the difference between an artist from the 80s and modern singers live or recorded it's still first class .

[@david1321riding]

This brings back such wonderful memories of my youth. ❤️❤️

[@RebelsInc969]

Snap !!

[@paulmcgrouin9157]

Holy shit, form is temporary, class is permanent. Different class.

[@seangreenop]

No auto tune or miming! Just pure emotion and God-given tallent. Thanks Hazel.

[@shaunkelly9860]

SOmetimes an instrumental break makes a song something special. This is one of those songs.

[@keefygee55]

I loved the original and still do, despite the passage of time. All the different versions of the song as Hazel gets older, as all of us that have grown older with her. Brilliant

[@Kwales66]

keefy Totall agree

[@jeanpaultomolillo2821]

J'ai 62 ans et depuis que je suis tout jeune, j'ai aimé cette chanson. Je ne sais pas pourquoi, peut être la voix, le saxo.....

[@raymondwalker7980]

[@paulholmes5240]

This sax solo got me playing sax when I was a kid ,Wesley was a sax player

Right up there in my top 10 favourites ever. It's hard to listen to without being moved by it and all the better for being imperfect.

[@Christian-iq2yr]

this voice!

[@Schappo342]

Immer noch TOP (y)

[@1longlong]

OMG XXX

[@giman3752]

Magnificent

[@Dermacrosis]

It takes a performer with such confidence int heir talent that they leave the stage of their own performance when they are not needed as she did. At that point the instrumental was the thing, and so that attention should be on that.

[@BillyJango]

Her voice is going but it makes it sound better here. This sounds good.
