Brilliant, I was 14 when this was released and I have loved it ever since. Easily in my top 10 greatest pop songs 👍
Great song, great band, Andy gave us really excellent performance.
This guy is so underated. he is a great guitarist, a great singer and one of my favourites and I was around when the originals were released ( scary )
"and I was around when the originals were released" too... ( thrilling! ) (⌒▽⌒)
Bully for you@@jiji1946
sounds as good as when I listened as a teenager.
Agreed!
No, one key lower now,
You have to look back to when he was with Amen Corner to realise how good they were compared to other groups of the time......They were one of a kind and stood out as pure class
Memories, memories….thanks Andy , you really are one of the greats
This is as good as it gets. Absolutely sublime performance.
Seeing him in concert on Sunday, a real hero from back in the day where we had real musicians
Saw Amen Corner perform this live for a Radio Show in Manchester in 1967. His voice hasn't changed much in all those years.
Andy has still got it, I fell in love with him when I was 15🥰
Me too
I'm sure he's a geordie
I think he is welsh
@@julianprice65 he is he lives in Cardiff he’s my uncle
Born in Ystrad Mynach, South Wales.
Brilliant and still relevant after all these years
Hearing this fab song again and sung by this great bloke as brought tears to my eyes ,WOW how special xxx long live the 60s era Those were the days lol x
One of my favourites, remember Amen corner well
Glad to see you still Rockin’ Andy 🎶
You was my birthday number 1 if Michael price was half as nice as this song 😊
Wow. Just so beautiful.
A great song by the great Italian composer and singer Lucio Battisti...
Great performance. And he's such a nice bloke.
So amazing! Havn't seen him live yet but really really want to! Also such a nice guy with no airs or graces. Just down to earth and real. May you keep on rocking for years to come Andy.
I just saw him on Thursday with Eric Clapton, he was amazing!
Lovely guitar sound as well as fantastic vocals of course 🤟
Ballsy sound
Fantastic song, reminds me of being 10 years old.
Great song.. lovely remember when it was in the charts..just about
No comments were able to be made on the bbc documentary so I thought this is just as good as anywhere…what an absolutely brilliant lovely man Mr Fairweather Low seems to be could listen to him talking about his life as a musician for hours…I like many others loved him when he hit our ears as 13yo…hopefully he won’t stop…thank you Andy
A Fellow Welsh Man which I never knew in the Day and this still sounds the same you just had more Hair Andy in the Day !!!!
What an incredible song
He gets better as he gets older!
Superb
Fantastic !!! I always loved this song, and the way he plays n’ sing !!! He’s cool 🥰
Brilliant, takes me back to my college days. Well done Andy
Brilliant. Oh those days gone!
Lucio Battisti 😘Great Andy! A cool version! Very super!
Excellent.
Great band .
I was there. Great gig.
That was great... such a good song.
Mint lovely sound, keep up the good work
Brilliant as ever 🎸🎸🎸😍
What a back up band !
This bought me to tears🥰
incredible performance
Was very fortunate to see Andy at Nantwich Blues Festival some years back. Small venue. One of the best gigs I ever attended.
Still love him 💛
He is still excellent.
Oh my gosh, this makes me cry....
You make me smile Andy...x
Brilliant first left handed drum set up I have seen!
Great doing Andy 👍Thank you👏
Andy asked me to dance in a small club Tiles in Oxford St in London. I was a teenager so nervous and shy. Thank you. I will always treasure the memory.
@sonia chandler.....lovely memory, lovely story, lovely song :)
Yes
I met him too. So lovely, friendly, humble. Someone in the retirement home (I kid you not) they were rehearsing in said to him 'Andy Fairweather Low? I'm surprised he's not dead!' and he said 'Me too!'
Incredible, simply Incredible. What a song!
Very very good Andy ! Still got it .😊
Very nice.. watching it at jools Holland ... Love the lyrics
What a lovely bloke ,hugely talented and funny too,great sense of humour and clearly enjoys it ,keep at it Andy!
Saw AFL with Bill Wyman (and Geraint Watkins on keys!) couple of years ago. Great gig
One of the best guitarists ever !!!
Hmmm thats a bit of a stretch
@@stevenaustin8274 Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Jimi Hendrix, George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Joe Satriani, BB King and many more have employed him to play guitar with them.
I think that he's pretty good. The trouble is most people think that good guitarists are fast and flash. A good guitarist is someone that plays to suit the song, is reliable, doesn't make mistakes and doesn't behave like a prima Donna.
Great memories of seeing Andy performing this live in Scarborough in the late 60s.
A few years ago at Glastonbury, AFL played the Accoustic Tent with Paul Carrick and Nick Lowe. They were good but AFL was brilliant and stole the last 20 minutes of a 60 minute set. The audience just loved it- me included!
Great stuff. I remember this one.
He is still gorgeous I was do in love with him when I was about 15 fabulous singer still love him
Wow ! Takes me back, absolutely brilliant.
Just thought of Andy this morning & U tube this 😀 👍 great song & always 👌 loved as a child . Thanks Andy. 😊
Keep going, you are fab. Xx
I remember watching him sing this on TOTPs!
Have loved AFL since Amen Corner Days at Youth Club ( Gin House Blues was closing record ) . Got to see him last year at Middlesbrough Town Hall in The Crypt . Amazing . His roadie took me to my seat after his wife who sold the cds told him about me being a fan & then he got me Andy's autograph :)
This guy is so good!
Love this.
He's still got it 😊
Great to see Andy still doing this song,i got it when this first came out,omg seems so long ago now. Well done mate.
Fantastic
What’s the matter with you audience this performance is so heavenly nice at least half as nice why no 145K views ????
Classic
Top man Andy. Seen him a couple of times with Eric Clapton and saw Amen Corner as a teenager but he just gets better with age!
Fantastic as expected from andy
Magic!
That surprised me, Andy is quite a good guitar player, I seem to think of him as just the singer, you learn something everyday, thoroughly enjoyed it.
He's been hired and worked for some of the greats like Eric Clapton. He's an amazing guitar player.
He makes it all look easy.
God be with the days.
Damn amazing song, really is. 👍🎧👍 nz
My introduction to this song and Andy's wonderful singing was the Cassette called The Immediate Singles. I saw the liner notes for the Nice (Nice) Azreal Keith Emerson apologizing for detuning the strings on the piano before Amen Corner's session. I bought this around 1984.
Superb version!
I have my tickets for Kinross Scotland 3 rd try as cancelled last 2 years due to Covid so excited
Bloody brilliant!
Just as good as it was originally
If I was one of the good people of Darwin, I think I would have been bopping around with a tad more enthusiasm. Andy and the band sound fabulous
Magnificent.
Legend!!
I love this song. I always did.
Voice pretty much the same as it was back then, Brilliant !
sounds just as good if not better wow perfect. beats mcartney jagger and all the rest!!!
Andy is as good on a guitar as any of the greats from his era.
He's worked with most of them so that says it all. If Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck hire you that speaks volumes about your ability.
@@craiglewis6145l just saw him with Clapton on Sunday and he was tremendous!
@@robplante8631 fantastic!
Lovin the keys...
Saw him perform on basil brush show London 1967
Italian classic written by Lucio Battisti
Sung by a Welshman, what a combination.
Brilliant Andy
Got to see Amen Corner live at the Boston 65 or 66. They were very good Band live
Awesome 👌
Great Andy, like and sub from ITALY 🤜🤛👍
BLUEBIRDS!!!
Re my original comment "Saw Amen Corner perform this live for a Radio Show in Manchester in 1967" According to the Internet they didn't release it until 1969 but we saw them when I was still in the sixth form so it must have been 1968.
Your uncle is a great talent.
sublime
Lovely
Spot on
