- Опубліковано 14 лют 2022
- Original a track from the LP/CD The Human Menagerie [1973].
Live @ Birmingham (Live with Orchestra & Choir) is a live album by Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel, featuring the Orchestra of the Swan and Chamber Choir. It was recorded live at the Birmingham Symphony Hall on 24 November 2012, and was released on both CD and DVD in 2013. A DVD version of the performance was also released at the same time.
Their first single, "Sebastian", was an immediate success in Europe, although it failed to score in the UK Singles Chart. Their debut album, The Human Menagerie, was released in 1973. Although the album was not a commercial success, the band attracted a growing following in London.
For many years, Steve Harley had considered performing the first two Cockney Rebel albums - 1973's The Human Menagerie and 1974's The Psychomodo - in their entirety, with an orchestra and choir. In 2011, he began planning the one-off concert, and had originally considered the Cadogan Hall or Royal Festival Hall in London for the performance.

Steve was a Genius, R.I.P 😢
God's said "Come up and see me" too soon. Rip Steve. Love this haunting track
I had the honor of seeing Steve live at the Burg Herzberg Festival (Germany/Hessen). At the moment he remembered the former Cockney Rebel bassist Paul Jeffreys, who, along with his wife, was one of the victims in the Lockerbie attack, the full moon rose behind the Herzberg main stage. R.I.P. Steve
A masterpiece in music-history. RIP Steve
A truly beautiful and great song, written and performed by a brilliant musician. Thank you so much, Steve. RIP.
I had the pleasure of meeting Steve Harley he was playing in a pub in Leeds years ago I asked him if he could sing Sebastian he did a memory I'll never forget he will live on in the memory of all who loved him.
A true masterpiece of the 70’s
This makes the hairs stand up on the back of my neck. I could listen to this all day. R I P Steve and thank you for the music.
I miss Steve so much. Was a fan from 1973 to the present day. Was at this amazing gig in Birmingham when the first two groundbreaking albums were played in their entirety. What a performer, what a songwriter, what a man. ❤
Rip Steve....The artists who left us this great music from the 60's and 70's are dying out over time. :(((
But their music and songs will be forever.
C'est la vie mon ami.
His best song in my humble opinion.
I totally agree
RIP Steve, thanks for the music.
An absolute masterpiece by a wonderful and talented artist. Forever part of of the tapestry of my life 💚
I always liked Cockny Rebel. RIP Steve. 😢 Thanks for the music.
Steve Harley F**cking brilliant
Thank you so much for this beautiful song. RIP Steve 💖
Mein Sohn heißt Sebastian nach diesem Lied. Als ich das Lied das erste Mal hörte standen mir die Haare hoch und Tränen in den Augen und da wusste ich: sollte ich mal einen Sohn bekommen, so war der Name klar. Da war vor ca. 50 Jahren und Sebastian ist nun 22 Jahre jung und liebt "seine" Namensgebung ebenfalls.
Der Tod von Mr. Harley hat mich sehr getroffen und traurig gemacht..........RIF
Thanks for your music Steve, we remember you always RIP
I'll never forget Steve Harley as his music touched me so deep since I was a teen...
Rest in peace Mr Harley your music will live on and on. Last saw him in October 23 he was amazing!
Beautiful and haunting - what a loss
Ein Lied für die Unendlichkeit ❤
Love it, love it, so good. The seventies gave us good music.
Out of this world
WHAT AN EXTRAORDINARY PIECE INDEED....JUST MAGNIFICENT
😔
Ruhe in Frieden, dieses Lied hat mir so viel bedeutet und auch heute hinterlässt es ein unbeschreibliches Feuerwerk an Gefühlen in mir. Dieses Lied ist Teil meiner Jugend wo Freiheit noch oft lebendig war! Habe eine gute Reise. Steve und sei begleitet von meinen Tränen und den Engeln ❤
Steve used to make a joke that in Apollo Glasgow he did a wee afternoon concert for the kids for your £1... Best baby sitter in town. I went to both. Loved him. Best baby sitter ever... RIP steve..
What a great performence of a great song.
I remember the day this number was played for the first time in the seventies.
Ein wunderbar schönes Lied. Ich kenne es schon ewig. Es spiegelt Einsamkeit, grundtraurige, tief verwurzelte Erfahrungen wider.
sooo wunderbar, ein Meisterwerk 😍
You were a legend steve harley.
Remember seeing you for the very first time live at hammersmith odeon in 1975.
Made me a fan for life ,saw you live numerous times then and now when you were touring.
Was so looking forward to seeing you this year😢😢.
Sebastian my all time favorite.
Your fans will never forget you.
And forever play your music.
R.i.p. steve ❤
I too was there and saw him at Hammersmith Odeon in 1975 and fondly remember right up in front of him as we all sang along to Come up and see me ( make me smile )
That made a big impression on me hen when I was a teenager
I also saw him in that summer at Crystal Palace Bowl
Thanks for the great music Steve .

I love this song, one of his best (Thanks for some great years Steve RIP) ☘️🇮🇪
Must be a great experience to listen to that Song live with full orchestra. Very good Arrangement.
Yeah Steve harley was so much part of my musical youth. From Judy teen to the recent solo tours - magnificent songs - I mean Sebastian…. What an epic !!! Great albums and incredible live shows! An underaged genius !
Like a fine red wine he improves with age. Bravo
RIP Steve, thanks for the music. with love from Holland.
A Closer Look generally and Sebastian particularly have lived with me since I bought the album as a callow boy aged 15. His passing is very sad but his music lives on.
Makes me cry ... so beautyful
With age comes mature, and with this song, most definitely
I have listened to Steve for over 50 years. I had a Grundig reel to reel all those years ago. Doing my o levels in my bedroom!! I have always Steve Harley his band and their music. He was also a lovely humble man. Rip steve.
My favourite song. So sorry to read the news.
Very nice and important Memoires coming back with this Song…❤️🙏🏽🌞
RIP Steve,thanks for you're beautiful music
Such as sad way to learn one of the great ones past away. I remember hearing this song the first time, many many summers ago, and never stopped loving it. The horror of growing old, all your heroes fall away too close to each other...
Another sad day in the world on great musicianship

RIP Steve Harley.
Was ein "bestes" Stück !!! Mehr Worte braucht es nicht !!!
Thank you Steve. One of the greatest.
RIP Steve💙
😭😭😭
I bought this on a 12" single when it was first released and used to worship this song, perhaps even more than everything else he did. Perhaps not, I love everything he did, almost. However, the way he has grown into that song surpasses by a mile,even its original self. I don't think I can think off the top of my head that I would rather see any other song performed live above this.
Oh my god. Only wonderful.
What a performance, what a unique artist, so theatrical. Farewell.
Rest in peace.....❤
R.i.p.😢
One man, musical
Amazing thank you dir this Gerät Song 😎✌️
Amazing
Just amazing.
Massive
WOW 😲 LUVILLI 🥰
Present till i die !!!
Best song in all of music existence.
RIP Steve, God bless
