He must have played this song a million times in his life and he makes it sound so fresh and exciting, like he was playing it for the first time. This is how you treat a classic song, one of the greatest pop songs ever recorded. Amazing job.
Must be twinned with Cornwall. Years ago I was doing a gig in Red Ruth, we were playing our hearts out and got nothing from the audience all night. After the gig we packed up pretty sharpish as we thought we were gonna get lynched of stuffed in a wicker man or something equally horrible, but as we tried to make our escape, they crowd kept coming up and telling us how much they'd enjoyed it. We asked why they never clapped or owt and they just said, it's not something we do 'round here! lol
Amen sister!! Nothing better, I’ve been saying that all my life! Add UK/Euro v. my country…The other side of the pond has the majority of the best musicians ever in my book. And they still do. I’m going to get shunned from my home now! Ha ha ha ha ha. I don’t care, truth hurts sometimes…
I was first into this band in 1973...I was 14 years old...can you imagine a 14 yr old being brought up and listening to this guy at that age? This was his big hit aaat 17 yrs old, I loved his firs 4 albiums
First discovered Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel at school in 1973….everyone was into glam rock T Rex, Bowie, Slade, Sweet etc but I got a loan of The Human Menagerie album of that year and after hearing the classic & very powerful “Sebastian” track I was hooked! After the break up of the original band Harley went on to release many albums but the most underrated for me was 1976 “Timeless Flight” which contains 2 gems….All Men are Hungry and Understand….well worth a listen. Keep writing and playing Steve you are a legend👌
Just a matter piece classic music 🎶 Beautiful song ❤ can't help smiling ❤ My time 1950/60 When we had the best Great happiness Great life Great England ❤ Back then ❤ My first date She made me smile ❤ First love Thanks Steve ❤ Had a beautiful time Back then ☕❤️☕
My brother and I in a pub drinking cold pints.. making our way through all the scampi fries with this song on repeat... about 15years ago now it's scary how time flys... this song always takes me bk to that day.
I'm so glad he's still alive and kicking. Still bringing so much solace to so many. I 've discovered this song two decades ago when i was in my 20s and i still love it. And thanks to the magic of utube we can actually see how steve performed over the years. I'ts great!
Such an underrated performer .....one of my favourite songs ....and never thought it could be bettered how wrong I was. With an orchestra in the mix it blew me away Mr Harley your like a fine wine getting better with age THANK YOU
What a song and what a performance! Couldn’t believe at first sight that it’s the same Steve Harley as in the video from 1973! It’s my motivation song when I do sport and I am sure one day I will join in singing while in the gym 😀
Brilliant! Takes me back to the past. My Dad was ahead of his time in 1975. I was about 14 but he took me to a few concerts in Eastbourne. OK, some were Gene Pitney, Shirley Bassey and The Batchelors but we also saw Cockney Rebel and the Average White Band. We went to Richard Branson's first record store in Brighton near the Clocktower to buy Tubular Bells. Dad liked the electronic music and accidently bought some early Human League - Travelogue. So glad we got to see Steve and the band live in the early days.
I HAVE KNOWN STEVE HARLEY AND COCKNEY REBEL FOR MORE THAN 50 YEARS NOW...EVEN NOW, I DO NOT KNOW WHERE DID THEY COME FROM, NOR WHERE DID THEY GO, JUST LIKE MY WHOLE LIFE... THE REBELS AND SEBASTIAN, ARE MY FRIENDS, YOUR FRIENDS, OUR FRIENDS, EVERYBODY'S FRIENDS...my best thoughts for you, your family and all your friends... from romania, GELU BATIR, jan 2021
Superb! I’ve not seen this one before but Steve can certainly still hit the notes. What a song, it never loses its appeal. Thanks Steve, you are a class act Sir!
You've done it all, you've broken every code And pulled the rebel to the floor You spoilt the game, no matter what you say For only metal, what a bore! Blue eyes, blue eyes...How come you tell so many lies? Come up and see me, make me smile Or do what you want, running wild There's nothing left, all gone and run away Maybe you'll tarry for a while It's just a test, a game for us to play Win or lose, it's hard to smile Resist, resist...It's from yourself, you have to hide, oh Come up and see me to make me smile, oh Or do what you want, running wild There ain't no more, you've taken everything From my belief in Mother Earth Can you ignore my faith in everything 'Cause I know what faith is and what it's worth Away, away... And don't say maybe you'll try To come up and see me to make me smile Or do what you want just running wild Come up and see me, make me smile Or do what you want, running wild Come up and see me
Great! This footage is from a program on Norwegian public broadcasting (NRK) called Herreavdelingen (The Gentlemens' Department). I would like to have the whole session avilable on youtube. Please!!!

Great 😊
Nailed it with that comment!
Steve got better looking, and his voice got better with age, a real man, Rest In Peace, handsome. Bet ur singing with the Angels in Heaven ❤❤
Saw this fellow live at Concert at the Kings. RIP Steve. Sorely missed.
RIP Steve, you gave me the best years of our lives, and in your own words of Judy Teen, “ made us appy”
Always missed, forever!
People here completely underestimate how hard it is to make Norwegians clap and sing along. Steve Harley is an absolute legend.
Hahaha
@@zmiru One of them is even so nervous he can't clap to the beat. XD It's my own worst nightmare.
I guess Im kinda off topic but do anyone know of a good website to stream newly released tv shows online?
@Reign Eduardo Try flixzone. You can find it by googling =)

My favourite record of all time. It’s the silence that does it for me. The guitar solo is the best in the business!
This was one of my few “perfect” singles.. bloody wonderful!
So,so good. How i am happy to be old.It means i grew up with this music. Its worth it just for the music.

Time goes by but this music still magic !! Bravo Steve !!
Superb! I’ve not seen this one before but Steve can certainly still hit the notes. What a song, it never loses its appeal. Thanks Steve, you are a class act Sir!
That audience needs to try harder. How can they not be bursting their lungs when they have the man right there.
Fantastic version, absolute amazing! Thank you.
Legend...............
Genuinely looks incredible,over 70 ,very impressed ,but only really know him for this song which admittedly is great
First time hearing it. I'm dancing around the living room !! THANK YOU!!!
4:18 the build up to it is fantastic and the music in the background is wonderful
I feel like the older he is the better the singing. Also the orchestra 👌!
I'm deeply impressed, that's real passion for music!
Brilliant, brilliant...and brilliant!!!
He’s still cute. This is still a classic.
He is adorable.
even with a wig haha
Great version and the strings in the chorus, superb!!!
Hi ross, go on youtube and search, rockwiz come up and see me. Great version done by steve
It's hardly a 'version'. As good as the original, by the original.
Wow what a performer! Absolutely brilliant.
Fantastic song, one of my favourites.
The guitar solo is excellent
The great Steve Harley ❤️
Awesome version of this epic song, totally love it 😎🙏👍❤️
Live in Stockholm on tivoli 1973 awesome concert 👍👍👍
Wowow...Like a fine wine...better with age.
He has a brilliant live versiin from Australia. On ABC and here on YT.
Steve, just had to have the full orchestra for this classic ❤
Excellent ❤
Keep smiling.......
What a song! Reminds me of so many things. Many thanks for sharing it☺
Wow ..... womderful .... this would be totally brilliant at the Royal Albert Hall as part of the Proms' !
wow...he is still cool.....and i will never forget those times
The words of this song make me think at prince Harry.... BTW, this is by far my favorite version, Steve's voice is amazing and the orchestra is great!
This is one of those songs that should be sent into space to represent our creativity to other intelligent life.
Bleeeeurgh! That comment is a bit vomit inducing. Thank god i never typed drivel like that.
Mate, you're a fan of Katie Hopkins, you don't have a right to use the phrase "vomit inducing". Away n run year arse up a cheese grater, ya prick.
Fantastic!!!😃😊🌏🪐🌕🙏🇦🇺🌸🦋🦜🐝🦉🏡🌴🌹❤️
You've done it all, you've broken every code
And pulled the rebel to the floor
You spoilt the game, no matter what you say
For only metal, what a bore!
Blue eyes, blue eyes...How come you tell so many lies?
Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
There's nothing left, all gone and run away
Maybe you'll tarry for a while
It's just a test, a game for us to play
Win or lose, it's hard to smile
Resist, resist...It's from yourself, you have to hide, oh
Come up and see me to make me smile, oh
Or do what you want, running wild
There ain't no more, you've taken everything
From my belief in Mother Earth
Can you ignore my faith in everything
'Cause I know what faith is and what it's worth
Away, away... And don't say maybe you'll try
To come up and see me to make me smile
Or do what you want just running wild
Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
Come up and see me
Awesome ..... he must put a different spin on it everytime he sings this fantastic song
Steve Harley and KORK in Oslo. Brilliant
Fabulous version. Was a great bunch of musicians
WOW CLASS ACT STEVE LUV FROM PERÚ
