[@deetw6470]

[@DavidBrockes]

Man, we used to go see him in the pubs. Back about 38 years ago. We went out the back hung out afterwards and blew him away with some good smoke we had. I still remember he had these two bown beautiful babes hanging off him and I couldn't stop looking. 😂😂😂😂😂. It was in Parnell.

One of the GREAT pop stars. And what a GREAT song. Should have been an international smash. Who wrote it. Fabulous lyric's, motivational and inspiring. I didn't know he was dead, so his music lives in my heart. RIP Sonny. Colin a Kiwi

[@fredjones9750]

It was written by Bruce springsteen for clarence Cleamons who performed it with his solo band. I love both versions.

[@whiteybird]

I thought that was Beaver - Oh Sonny, he sure will be missed. My father was a very good friend of his (Corben Simpson).

[@Jameswallace21]

...also I have never seen this Video but I do have the 12" single. Its a classic.

[@ozbob68]

ha ha ha, I remember when TVNZ could not get any music videos for free from the record labels for a few months in the 80s, so all we had was this on the TV and that bl**dy "bop bop bop to the drummer" song. "So Spac!" as Kylie Mole would say!

[@58charles]

[@willissmith190]

Aw man memorys..churrr

[@zeppie9294]

@stormcats2 Was that the late Paul Hewson from Dragon on Piano, Saving Up ?

[@daddymugglemuggle4159]

It was Paul Hewson, but he'd already passed away before the video was made.

[@123speedbird]

Crafted by the Boss Bruce Springsteen for the BIG MAN Clarence Clemons

[@birdstuckinchimney]

Hey Whitybird...so you're the son of Corben Simpson...that brill dude. I reckon he was/is one of NZ's most creative ever talents. Are you a muso too?

[@johngraham5948]

Is that a fresh faced Tama Renata at '1.38'?

[@nulla38]

is that vulcan lane?

[@gunit274]

sure is

[@whiteybird]

hi birdstuckinchimney - Corben's my father-in-law. I dabble a bit on the bass guitar. One of my basses is in the video for corben singing up on the roof which corben signed for me ('68 Aria Diamond). Cheers for the comments, Todd.

[@isaacaero5659]

[@69feast]

Bruce springsteen wrote this track

[@1pixman]

sonny day of New Zealand did this version of Bruce Springstein's Song in my opinion better than bruce check out bruces versions from live shows ....

[@teharipatene8135]

Haha I thought this song belonged to this kool Maori man, not until after I read ur comment then the penny dropped off course the Bosses song. They're a tie in my opinion Peace

[@roach4946]

back in the day when men and woman had such fukd up hairstyles, and the dancing was even worse. aaahhh living above the ponsonby shops as a kid.with my mates laughing at the adults thinking they were movie stars on the ponsonby walk of local stars with absurd dress sense with high collars and men with super tight jeans, eeeeuuuwaa graeme brazier..stoned.....again

[@teharipatene8135]

No, just a good guy reminiscing, now we've all aged. Peace out

[@cliffordbuchanan6957]

Appropriate song for today's times
