First heard this song in 1995. It was featured in the movie, Kids of the Round Table. I've loved it ever since. When I found out that this song was by Murray Head, I was surprised that it was a hit in 1976 because I didn't remember hearing the song back then.
First heard this song on the Radio back in 1975 as a 16 year old and fell in love with it , was searching for it for years . Now i have it on my ITunes list , and its one of my most played tunes
I heard this song once in 1983 and could not find out who sang it. After about 10 years of trying to find it, there was a great old record shop in Birmingham called Reddingtons rare records, I went in there and asked the bloke serving for a song called ‘Joe’, the guy looked puzzled and asked me to sing it! I wanted the song so much, I did, he immediately walked from behind the counter and took me to a rack of CD’s and I bought a compilation CD of Island records which had the track on by Murray Head. I also bought a Gary Brooker album ‘ No more fear of flying’ which had a cover of the song. I still love the song.
Reddingtons, I remember it well..The Hollies have also covered this song. Murray's an underrated talent and has an excellent back catalogue. Check out 'Shade' (1982)
Love that story!! After decades of hearing this song and not knowing the story behind the lyrics until THIS YEAR…made perfect sense to me. I won’t spoil it, in case you don’t know and want to. I never would have guessed. 😅 Just Google it. 😊
Underrated & underplayed is right. What a searingly haunting song. I didn't take to Murray's voice straight away but love him now. Lena's cover is breathtaking; so moving. An anthem for all times. Maybe never moreso than now with our world is such danger. What a heart breaking & making song for me.
I honestly love your posts and always enjoy reading them in my lonely spare time. I'm so sorry I invaded your privacy, but I'd love to be friends with someone who could share such sensitive post content, which means you're a woman of integrity. I wanted to add you but sending you a friend request without your consent is inappropriate because I'm a public figure and it wouldn't take much either, I'd appreciate it if you send me a friend request now so we can be friends and text better here on TH-cam
So I heard it on a tv show (Snowpiercer) then I asked my mother do you know this song ? she said of course! here's the old vinyl followed an amazing night of discovery ! Music is amazing!
Algo parecido me paso, hace como 40 años lo escuche y ahora lo escuche en la radio y me acordé uauuu dije ,me parece tan raro no escucharlo en compilados de los 70. hermoso tema
Canción preciosa. Música espectacular. Lo mejor que escucho siempre . Murray Head, eres alguien muy especial y espero que Dios te bendiga por las canciones maravillosas que nos aportas. Un abrazo con todo mi cariño❤
Siempre en mi corazón. Gracias Murray Head por hacer una vida mejor y sin injusticias. Amo tu letra y música. Que Dios te bendiga 🙏 Graciaaas!!!🔭✨💥💥💥❣️
Dommage que cette première version (que je preferais à la 2ème)au début est en live soit effacée au moment du "hoooo...baby" pour synchroniser la 2ème version. J'aime aussi. Mais je la connais depuis sa sortie en 75-76 et je préfère la 1ère version.
WAOW! Voilà la tête sculpturale d’un surhomme caucasien, sorti tout droit d’un manga en noir et blanc. - WOW! Here is the sculptural head of a Caucasian superman, straight out of a black and white manga.
I think it's subjective. I didn't take to Murray's voice at first..But he's grown on me to the point where I love his version best. .Also he WROTE this amazing jewel; . poetry to music ; His music. What an underrated genius of a singer songwriter. If you read/ listen to interviews, he comes over as an incredibly thoughtful & genuine guy. . To me anyway, it's an anthem for all time, both in the micro & the macrocosm of our lives & for the world.
A superb number from the highly talented Mr Murray Head
👉👍👍👍
Absolutely love this song

Nice story. I LOVE the song too. It takes me back down memory lane...
No es de Roger daltri esta canción ???quien la canto por primera vez de quién es ????
Love that story!!

Just Google it. 😊
Magnifique chanson et superbe voix... Quel talent M. Head !
Dios mío, la última vez que escuché este tema fue en 1978 haciendo la mili en La Marina.
What a powerful song.
heard it on johnnie walkers sounds of the 70s radio 2 today 16th june 24 brilliant
One of the best songs ever written... Paully xxx
In meiner Jugend geliebt und nach über 40 Jahren wieder gefunden. Was für ein Song....
Me too! My case!
Ich liebe den Song auch,aber die Coverversion von Roger Daltrey (The Who)ist fast noch besser.
Completely forgot about this one. Such a great song.
Gracias por video. Lo escuchaba de niño, siempre me gusto. Saludos.
Murray a une sensibilité musical hors norme, génial 👍😃
What a song! It always touches me so much...
Genius and underrated underplayed
Started binge watching Snowpiercer, Miss Audrey sang this and it was amazing, found the original and it’s become one of my all time favourites
Recuerdo era canción desde 1976, era un adolescente estudiando electricidad, no la olvidé nunca ...
Un Petit quelque chose en plus...❤
Mind blowing. What a performance!

Music is amazing!
Such an incredible player, to get so many sounds out of that one guitar, awesome.
Levaba 47 años buscando esta canción, hoy, 7 de diciembre la encuentro casualmente.
Algo parecido me paso, hace como 40 años lo escuche y ahora lo escuche en la radio y me acordé uauuu dije ,me parece tan raro no escucharlo en compilados de los 70. hermoso tema

Bellísima canción ❤
Magnifique ❤
Great lyrics terrific performance.
A delight to hear again
Masterpiece
Saw him in 1976 Earls Court , remember him singing this Song, support act for Elton John Louder Than Concorde Tour
Sounds like a very good concert. I hope you were lucky enough to see Genesis on their "A trick of the tail" tour, that year. Those were the days.
Великолепен! Голос и культура пения потрясает!
This song is from heaven...
He is just awesome!

The Roger Daltrey sung version is fantastic also.
Inspired by the fall from grace of baseball star 'Shoeless' Joe Jackson.

There is a message in here! What is it ? country is falling apart etc.
Marian Gold, lead singer of Alphaville, made a cover in 1996 of this song....incredible and maybe better than the original version!!!!

Public service announcement with guitars.
Quelle belle année ! Tout juste 15 ans bordel de merde fait chier de veillir Maman revient !....?

Dommage que cette première version (que je preferais à la 2ème)au début est en live soit effacée au moment du "hoooo...baby" pour synchroniser la 2ème version. J'aime aussi. Mais je la connais depuis sa sortie en 75-76 et je préfère la 1ère version.
Great song and singer. Roger daltry version is a bit more aggressive but just as good
WAOW! Voilà la tête sculpturale d’un surhomme caucasien, sorti tout droit d’un manga en noir et blanc. - WOW! Here is the sculptural head of a Caucasian superman, straight out of a black and white manga.
Ever vigilant against corruption
de quelle emission espagnole est ce titre de murray head
The show was called "Directísimo"
Tu as une réponse ^^
Roger Daltrey's version of this song is the best version.
Well that's awkward. They're using is real voice for the first 40s then switch to lip sync for the rest.
La chanson n'est-elle pas sortie en 1977 et non 1976 ?
elle est sortie en 1975
Roger Daltrey released a version in 1977
Очень сильный вокалист! В "Jesus Christ" не уступал Иэну Гиллану.
Песня отличная и видео тоже. Но звук не с этого живого выступления.
Roger daltrey has the best version.
I think it's subjective. I didn't take to Murray's voice at first..But he's grown on me to the point where I love his version best. .Also he WROTE this amazing jewel; . poetry to music ; His music. What an underrated genius of a singer songwriter. If you read/ listen to interviews, he comes over as an incredibly thoughtful & genuine guy. . To me anyway, it's an anthem for all time, both in the micro & the macrocosm of our lives & for the world.
La voz de Daltrey no se puede comparar con nada, su versión es apoteotica
Al fin y al cabo no era Roger daltrey eran the Who .
I like ROGER DALTREYS version the Best!
Snowpiercer
