Tommy Steele -'Bridge Over Troubled Water' -1979

[@krakatoa1200]

When I was seriously ill in hospital at 10 years old in 1957 listening to tommy singing 'Handful of songs kept me going. A true super star.

[@colindale3027]

TOMMY MAKES A GREAT JOB OF THIS NUMBER - He always was a CLASS ACT ..

[@DavidLamb123]

Brought a tear to my eyes. My favourite as a lad. I saw him in panto at Liverpool with the Steelmen, knocked me out. One of Britain's greatest.

[@ROCKINGMAN]

A lot of sentiment and feeling in this version. More so than other versions I think. A real nice rendition of this classic. I suppose it shows that Tommy Steele never fails in his talent.

[@sarah.d9409]

He doesn't look a day over 32! This is a beautiful rendition of this old song... so stirring... only as Tommy Steele can do it! If you like this, you'll be sure to enjoy 'Applause Applause'. We NEED more of Tommy Steele!!

[@abigalebuss359]

I know that I've been here before but I just watched this again and I just wanted to say that I never get tired of him singing this.

[@pamelahodson6520]

Tommy is an entertainer good at lots of talents.i have been a fan of his for 50,years and still a fan!

[@lisawells6051]

Woke up this morning with the song “Thank you very much” on my mind....later Tommy Steele came to mind, having no idea he sang that song in Scrooge....I saw him in a few movies when I was a child and had no idea of his vast talent and career! Praying for him and his family today. :)

[@brianarthur8480]

I saw Tommy Steele at the Tivoli Melbourne Australia in 1958 & lucky to meet him back stage after the show. Great Memory.

[@annesfteland2206]

I really love Tommy`s voice:-) A great singer.

[@Onthemove6801]

Such a huge talent.

[@pepper419]

What a brilliant showman. ✨✨✨✨💜💜😍

[@dianestephenson8528]

Best recording of this song ever! Tommy set the gold standard on this song. Amazing. He is so smooth!

[@abigalebuss5277]

All I need is just to hear Tommy Steele's name and it cheers me right up! I just love to see all these videos of himself. I just wish that I could have seen him in person. I live in the states and will never get that chance. But I have movies CDs and records of his. I don't know how I got so lucky to get any of those. I just got his two album set on CDs and I just by love them too!

[@leonblank8478]

Great bloke. The whipper-snappers of today could learn a lot from this legend!!

[@ashdrive]

WOW...I've never seen this version. Tommy Steele is such a talent...

[@juliaclarke6125]

Tommy Steele, just one of the best!!

[@joecomer8275]

Over the years there have been many versions of this classic song. But none of them came close to being as good as the original Simon & Garfunkel recording. None of them, that is, except for this one. I've been a fan of Tommy's since the 1960's, but I can honestly say that even if hadn't, I would still consider this a great performance. Thanks for posting!!

[@alfching2499]

Charlotte Church did a very good version.

[@johnshepherd7958]

Excellent - God Bless Tommy.

[@scouseronthewirral]

No version is better than Elvis’s cover from 1970 even Paul Simon himself said how can he compete with it

[@thatonethere9858]

He's my all time favourite entertainer for fifty years, maybe more There's not one song, telly or film role I can find fault with. He's acted and sung in Gilbert and Sullivan's Yeomen of the Guard and brilliantly cast he was too; in turn funny, musical (of course) and tragic. It takes a truly talented performer to do all that. And he's as easy on the eye as on the ears. Got no problem with that.

[@scrumsie]

wow This is actually great.

[@DeeDragoon]

I've recently discovered many KZbin videos featuring Tommy Steele; I knew about his start as a rock singer, and how he became a musical film star, but never knew he also plays piano and sang this song! He is an amazing talent!

[@pepper419]

One of the finest. Loved him back in the early fifties and I'll forget him.

[@georgekontos3100]

Wow! Just wow!

[@abigalebuss5277]

Keep performing Tommy, we love you!

[@MrDavey2010]

A true star!

[@namj8145]

Impressive, love Tommy, and love Paul Simon, but they're different stylists. Worried Tommy might be embarrassing trying to adapt this classic. But his soft, understated approach, even with full orchestra and 70s chorus, and strong finish worked perfectly. A great result, through two incredible talents!

[@carola8068]

is so great to hear him sing again. He was one of my brothers and my favourite singers back in the 50's and 60's and I never thought to check youtube when I got my Tablet. (my musician son told me about it and installed the App for me) so cool to hear all the songs again

[@higethewolf1940]

Beautiful

[@MrBlucas]

The brilliant Tommy Steele,

[@ronnola]

Magical. Thank you so much for posting this!

[@hildeborg100]

[@jantrent8025]

Wow first time I have heard this. Brilliant.

[@hildeborg100]

Tommy,detta är den utan tvivel den bästa låt du har sjungi på många år vilken röst nu förstår jag att du är så bra allt du tar i blir guld,fortsätt sjunga så längedu bara kan (du är underbar. Bo Nygren

[@pilarmartinez9753]

Fantástico músico. Uno de mis favoritos. Preciosa canción. Estupendo vídeo. 👍👌

[@carolhegarty6482]

Performed this in his show 'An Evening with Tommy Steele'

[@abigalebuss5277]

I have always loved Tommy Steele since mom introduced him to me in the 60's! I wonder, is he still performing? I was little when he performed in the states. I wish he'd come back.

[@adrinathegreat3095]

Abigale Buss Tommy Steele has been performing almost non stop since 1956, pop star, film star, star of stage. 2018 will be a bust year for tommy

[@PilarP-sm7fw]

Maravilloso

[@jordanbaker1647]

Totally in love

[@gasparandras3073]

[@altamontdarby2819]

👏🏾👍🏾💪🏾👌🏾❤️

[@patrickv.5644]

prachtiggggggg ♥

[@mick62mick]

Great performance from Tommy and didn't he hold that last note well!

[@johnskinnwr4629]

Elvis did a good version even paul Simon said he could not top it

[@daylily-vj8cr]

Excellent voice, loved him in 'Finian's Rainbow', but no one could do 'Bridge over Troubled Water' like Simon and Garfunkel

[@Lewisjls]

It Belongs to PERRY COMO.

[@donnalombardo1135]

Agreed but I like his version

[@jenerhart7025]

That man has never received the respect or attention he deserves here in the US.

[@jantrent8025]

Or as we say here in Bridgwater Somerset. Trouble over Bridgwater

[@tinpanally51_36]

Is this how you make a hit record?

[@davidtuer5825]

Tommy does a good job on this, second to Simon & Garfunkel. But they couldn't do "Little White Bull".

[@vilmamoro1809]

Sorry, but even Simon and Garfunkel said that the best ever rendition of this song was by the King himself ELVIS!!! They even said they couldn't better it!

[@adrinathegreat3095]

What a mouth, what a mouth what a North and south, crash bang what a picture what a photograph, once upon a time there was a little white bull. Tommy Steele the butcher of Bermondsey, Pass me the Noose this is painful to watch

[@chipperjack8914]

I love tommy but no thanks.

[@stevenwinter5175]

Passable in parts..he never was a great singer..Good entertainer though.

[@Lewisjls]

JOKE.

[@annenunney9907]

Always Brilliant Tommy Steele ❤

[@PilarP-sm7fw]
