Me too. Both my boys, 27 and 39, grew up with this music because I played my music alot. We had the very best tunes. This song reminds me of lying out at the beach, wind blowing, waves crashing, surfers out, smell of coppertone tanning oil, and carefree teenage years.
They freaking killed that live! Honestly, I was kind of bummed you were doing a live version. And not just a live version, but one that was done 30 something years after they recorded it originally. I expected a version that was a shadow of the original. I was not expecting this. They knocked it way out of the park. They can still sing! What a brilliantly polished live act. That is such a great display of talent with undoubtedly many thousands of hours of polishing their craft and art.
I have been priviledged to see them twice live over the past five years and both times equally mesmorizing. Personal favorite will however always be the less known "I'm Mandy fly me"
Listen to the full version of the original song. It was a landmark in recording technique, and a hauntingly beautiful song. So full of sound yet so much space. Simply amazing.
Big boys don't cry was recoded during the studio recording. Kathy Redfern was the secretary at the Strawberry Studios. She came out to tell Eric Stewart he had a phone call. They just asked her and she obliged.
These are one of the bands from the 70's that make me love this era! I grew up then but the music....brings back SO many memories! Paul Davis, Player, Dr. Hook..
You have good musical taste! 10cc was one of the best groups around in the 70's. Everything they did was cutting edge and such a tremendous group. They never seemed to get the recognition they deserved in the States tho. I'm glad you have discovered just how great they are. I share your viewpoints on all your reactions. I'm a subscriber now. Good for you. Keep it up!
I remember it seriously creeping me out when it first came out. I would have been I guess just entering my teens. A lot of it was the tape loop harmonies, which give it a very strange atmosphere.
This takes me back to being a teenager. Loved this song at the time but because there was so much good music around in the 70's I didnt properly appreciate how good they truly were. Their harmonies and instrumentals are spot on. Thank you for taking me back to some very happy memories x
_I remember when this came out, and I played the crap out of this. The '60s and 70s' was the best time to grow up; life was so different and carefree!_
Great reaction!!. The most impressive fact, is that they performed this tune almost 99% as it was on the original recording back in 1975. Great song by great artists, no doubt about it. Finest 70's british talent, ever.
Indeed. One of the Best songs ever!. I woke up this morning with this song on my mind. I am 68 and it sounds better that some of the trash out today. I have hears it 5 times. 2 by different reviewers. It Was greatly appreciated by both. Yeah this song still has a place
Loved this live performance of an old favorite. Dude is in serious denial, and I always crack up about that picture of her that he won't give back! Great reaction!
I didn't see it that way. well, us girls didn't . We saw it as," yeah, we are dateing and eveything, but I'm not in love and will go with another girl in a heartbeat".
@@deborahreynolds9792 Actually you couldn't be more wrong. The writer Eric Stewart wrote it after his wife asked hom why he hardly ever said he loved her. He thought saying it constantly would make it meaningless, so put a twist on it by saying i'm not in love , but really meaning our relationship means everything to me. I think maybe you might try listening to it again with this in mind now & see if your oppinion changes.
HUGE props for the two great live performances!!! The great 10cc about forty-five years after the song first came out, and the awesome reaction from everyone's favorite Rogue!! Phenomenal job, as always!! A few minutes on your channel always puts a smile on my face, no matter how bad the day may be going!! Keep on doing what you are doing, and never stop!! Remember - Big Boys Don't Cry!!
One hot summer’s day in 1974, I was sitting with my back against a tree in the Winter Gardens in Bournemouth. I was 17 years old, and waiting to catch a train to leave home and join The Household Cavalry. Leaning on the same tree next to me was a hippy kind of guy with a guitar, strumming some great chords,,, lots of cool key changes. We got talking, he introduced himself as Graham Gouldman, and I told him that I loved the sound that he was getting out of a simple acoustic guitar. He told me that he was working up a melody for a lyric that his friend had penned. I listened some more, then caught my train. The following year, I heard the finished article, I’m Not in Love storm up the charts. How lucky was I to experience the song in its conception, and what a memory. The name 10cc, by the way, had no sexual connotations... it simply came to Jonathan King in a dream. Boring eh! Loving your reactions,,, and your frequent smiles of wonderment melt my old hippy heart. Love from the UK. X
Man, what a great story! What a privilege to hear that. Not convinced about your explanation of the name, though! It's pretty well documented that it was based on the average ejaculate being 9cc in volume, and as Jonathan King thought of them as an average band, 10cc was arrived at. Jonathan King is not exactly a stranger to sexual innuendo!!
I was there in Swansea, it was a fantastic night, first part of the show featured Graham's acoustic session. Seen them on numerous occasions, most memorable was Cardiff 1993, where Eric was on fantastic form and very humorous!!!
This song was a hit in the 70's, but they sound just as good in this video years later. On the original song, all the background music was their own voices meshed together. One of my favorite songs of all time!
Of all the songs that have ever moved me, I think this one is the ONE. The writers/composers so perfectly captured a such feeling of bittersweet. This song makes me cry tears of sadness and joy at the same time.
You really need to hear the original version. There is a live version that was incredible. Eric Stewart was the heart and soul of 10cc. His vocals will make you melt and his subtle gestures show his stage presence. Peace to you lovely lady!
Heard this many times back in the day. But never heard a live version. They killed it for sure. Also, you have quickly gone to the top of my favorite reactor list for so many different reasons. Keep doing what your doing. More Leo please
This wasn't the original singer,although he comes close. Eric Stewart gave a much better performance. This was No:1 in June 1975 and the original is still the best.
This Classic has dragged me out of many many dark moods! And Thank You for showing this music/song/group respect. Loving your channel and Cheer's Gorgeous 🇬🇧
Love your reaction and the pure written on your face and smile to this brilliant live version. I can remember slow dancing at the end of parties to this when I was a teenager. Happy memories.
Girl. This was and remains my favorite song. It broke my heart in the 80s and it reminds me of the girl I left behind. Thank you for reacting to it. It's was just a silly phase I was going through.., 😎
i love this song, since i was a child. in germany it was in a film. i've never forgot this music and since that time, up to now i love it , there is no end 😍🥰
What is amazing about this performance is how close it is to the studio recording. Except for a few things here and there you would swear they were lip-syncing to it. His voice still sounds great after all these years.
Graham Gouldman the guy in the middle on Bass is the original 10cc member in this line up..........Excellent performance! Should check out the original 10cc with Eric Stewart singing
It still amazes me that young people like you are really starting to appreciate music like this. I don't know if it means you like the sound of it better than what is played today, but I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I love the album version.. but live they're amazing musicians an humans .... 70's was a wild time an music is what helped me to survive.... Girl .... 1st time subbing!!! ✌🏻💗😊❣️ Yes live.. but even in the original they've layered their voices to get that ethereal sound .... They can harmonize baby... Remember they didn't use what ppl do now... These musicians are real that's why this time was special. If you made radio it's because you had chopps(vocal prowis).... Talent... Love seeing you digging it an yeah ... You bring me joy✌🏻💗😊❣️
The studio version is so epic that I feared this being a live version, but was pleasantly surprised at this performance. I love how quickly you picked up on the denial of lyrics :). I always interpreted it as not so much breaking up, but him avoiding getting into a serious relationship in the first place by kidding himself that he's 'not in love'.
thanks, Girl! This is one of my favorites by 10cc - also, if you haven't heard it yet -- "the Things we do for Love" -- it's almost hard to believe this is live, b/c so perfect harmonies/instrumentals - !
I recall 10cc had to do with a syringe of 10cc of what ever turned you on. But I'm sure it has changed into today's social correctness so it doesn't give bad ideas to youth. My self being a percussionist I would say the musician playing the Rumba Shaker/ Maraca, is a percussionist at this point. But as well he is the drummer. For some reason this song reminded me of. Give a reaction to, or give it a listen. If you haven't heard it. "SWEET" BY band " Cigarette After Sex " Beautiful voice with a transcendent quality, In much of their music. Great reaction.
This incredibly diverse Band split into 2 pairs: 1/ Godley and Creme 2/ Stewart and Gouldman but I think only Graham Gouldman is here in the middle. Stewart spent three weeks recording Gouldman, Godley, and Creme singing "ahhh" 16 times for each note of the chromatic scale, creating a 'choir' of 48 voices for each note.Creme suggested they could keep the voices going for an infinite time by using tape loops. Stewart created 12 ft long loops by feeding them at one end through the tape heads of the stereo recorder, and at the other end through a capstan roller fixed to the top of a microphone stand.. YOU MUST HEAR THE STUDIO VERSION RR :)
The best “in denial” song ever. One of THE songs of my life! Remembers me, in the 70’s, listening this in my room, lights off, just “traveling” in those strange and kind of magical sounds! All so new and original, then! Still love this!!!!! ✌️
I was eight years old when this came out... my mom was 24 years old it's amazing how music from this genre stays with you throughout your life especially exposed to it at a early age,... growing up in the 70s and 80s where's some of the best times for music
That's right girl, it's a throw back from the Era when talent WAS EVERYWHERE!!! I am soooooo Lucky I grew up in the 70s.really like your Chanel.keep doing what you're doin'
The closest thing we have to a time machine is music. Thank you for reacting to this amazing song. Wasn't sure I'd like a live version, but they nailed it!
I propose to my first wife with that song on the radio playing in the background, the 70s was just awesome music. I love your reactions. Thank you so much.
Youre smile got me crushing hard! Seriously though, I love watching you experience the emotion of the music. Simply pure, naturally wonderful. You pick up on things I missed and I appreciate that so much. makes me appreciate some of my favorite older songs all the more. Thank You!!!
Seminal song, brings back an ocean-liner worth of memories for me, and seeing you, so many years later, really enjoying it, is both bizarre and exciting!! Thank you so much, there's so much more from our era...Needless to say, there are many more 10cc songs/albums worth checking out.
I was a kid growing up in the 70's the music was great. listened to a lot of radio there were really only the 3 networks to watch on tv so music was more my thing.. I love watching you react to this music your smile just lights up my computer screen.. such a beautiful lady.. makes me wish i was 30 years younger ..
I was in my 20s when this came out I just got out of the Navy and I met a girl who I liked but I was still processing getting out of the service and Vietnam love was hard to feel, I felt more alone in a world I didn't understand so we parted, but this song really spoke to me
This is the sound of flowing red wine being performed by a group of artists who have each achieved Master status. A dying breed of musicians who create music instead of just sounds.
The reason those backup vocals are piped in is because, if I'm not mistaken, in the studio they layered the harmonies until there were over 100 voices. So sweet. Your reactions are tip-top, princess.
First time I heard the Aaaaaahs from a synth, when this came out, since then every synth I own has pretty much that sound bank in it, Still gives me the creeps and goosebumps on my arms. When I use this for an arrangement, it's like heaven opens, if you use it on a subtle way, like 10cc did.
Good discovery for you. I got introduced to the band in 1982, whilst in England at Uni. Been hooked on that tune ever since. Memories of love lost via a letter after a year absence. True story...enjoy. .. 🇨🇼🇩🇲🇨🇦
Good live performance! At the time this was released it would not have been (easily) possible to do a faithful live performance of this song because the infinite sustain vocal "keyboards" had to be done with tape loops and faders on the mixing desk. These days of course you can put anything you want into a keyboard.
I’ve always loved this song. What they did for the “going to space” thing was pretty flippin’ complicated. I was watching a doc with some of the Engineers and Producer. BTW… the “Big boys don’t cry” section was spoken into a single track, then mixed in afterward. It was “performed” by one of the Administrative Assistants. PS. I think you’re great. You bring something to this type of platform that others simply don’t… or can’t. I don’t know exactly what it is, but it’s an sense of optimistic freshness. Openness and honesty. It’s really something. Keep doing what you’re doing… don’t stop. I have a feeling this is but one step toward something much bigger for you. God Bless you. Cheers…
@@RogueRxyce Nothing but love. I would love to see you do a Radiohead reaction… “Let Down”, “Creep”, “How To Disappear Completely.” Never change young Lady.

this is very good, because I am 22 years old here in Brazil, I am "out of class" for many!
Amen
Right?!
Me too. Both my boys, 27 and 39, grew up with this music because I played my music alot. We had the very best tunes. This song reminds me of lying out at the beach, wind blowing, waves crashing, surfers out, smell of coppertone tanning oil, and carefree teenage years.
This band, this song defined my heart in the late 70s and 80s. It still tugs at my heart today. 😎 I'm not in love. 😘
The arrangement to this song is nothing short of phenomenal.
This song brings out an intense nostalgia in me. I can not explain it.
They freaking killed that live! Honestly, I was kind of bummed you were doing a live version. And not just a live version, but one that was done 30 something years after they recorded it originally.

One of my favourite songs done very right in this version. Loved it!
yah, what you just said.
I have been priviledged to see them twice live over the past five years and both times equally mesmorizing. Personal favorite will however always be the less known "I'm Mandy fly me"
Same!
I can not believe how GOOD this version sounds!
Listen to the full version of the original song. It was a landmark in recording technique, and a hauntingly beautiful song. So full of sound yet so much space. Simply amazing.
Her smile is the most contagious thing I’ve seen in awhile.
yea shes gorgeous ... mixed races are special
I'll say. She's strikingly intelligent, poised, charismatic, and ...alluringly, even alarmingly, beautiful. Who is this Rogue Royce??
And a lovely feminine voice too.
I agree completely. Her smile is a main reason watching her videos
Some people are truly blessed when nature makes them.
Big boys don't cry was recoded during the studio recording. Kathy Redfern was the secretary at the Strawberry Studios. She came out to tell Eric Stewart he had a phone call. They just asked her and she obliged.
And if I remember correctly she also received a Gold Record for her efforts, as did the other band members.
When this was a hit, there was nothing else on the radio that sounded anything like it.
I think was one of the first songs to use the vocal-synth style?? :)
I feel like The Cars, Drive was influenced by this.
@@thesunreport After that, there was "Bohemian Rhapsody"(has that in the verses).
@@empyrealone Never thought of that, but I think you're right on.
So true. You're right. I remember hearing it on the radio and feeling the same way.
These are one of the bands from the 70's that make me love this era! I grew up then but the music....brings back SO many memories! Paul Davis, Player, Dr. Hook..
This was dreampop from the late 70's... 40 years ahead of it's time. And I tend to think it still is 🤘🤘
1975 is that late 70's ?
No, it's literally the middle on the decade...LOL@@Aragorn.Strider
@@ViciousAlienKlown Dude, I was ironic
I'm happy to say the UK has produced some of the greatest bands and music
Too bad we don't any more😞
@@tonyrodd6348 Newsflash -we do.
I was dreading hearing the live version - I loved this when I was a little girl - but it's fantastic.

Soundtrack to my teenage years... 1970's, all raging hormones, and we were all in denial. What a great time!
Same here....
Me too!!
I remember it seriously creeping me out when it first came out. I would have been I guess just entering my teens. A lot of it was the tape loop harmonies, which give it a very strange atmosphere.
Wasn't it!? 😉

Carefree if you weren't getting attacked by the KKK or drafted to go to Vietnam 🤣
@William C not everyone was getting attacked or drafted but that did happen
Wow I never thought a live version of this song would be so good...I was totally floored by this. Ty so much for this!

Loved this live performance of an old favorite. Dude is in serious denial, and I always crack up about that picture of her that he won't give back! Great reaction!
So nice to see yer reactions dear...Ty
Absolute classic song. All about how no matter how much a boy likes a girl he simply cannot bring himself to open up & admit it. 😄
I didn't see it that way. well, us girls didn't . We saw it as," yeah, we are dateing and eveything, but I'm not in love and will go with another girl in a heartbeat".

This wasn't the original singer,although he comes close. Eric Stewart gave a much better performance. This was No:1 in June 1975 and the original is still the best.
True that!
That makes sense. He was younger looking than the rest of the band.
thanks Jamie for setting the record straight...
Yes, he had more emotion.
lol, I was wondering why I couldn't square his appearance with his much younger self! Because this older self was an entirely different person!

He's not the original singer. Eric Stewart, the original singer, left the band in the mid 90s.
100% the performance here was fantastic.
YES, Ralph - at first I thought it was just a live performance video keyed to the studio version -- amazing!
Over 30 years after, they are still as great in music and harmonies!!! Love your reaction to!!!!
Graham Gouldman the guy in the middle on Bass is the original 10cc member in this line up..........Excellent performance! Should check out the original 10cc with Eric Stewart singing
Though Rick Fenn and Paul Burgess have been with the band since the mid-70s.
Stalwart members
I'm amazed at how you FEEL the music no matter what genre it is. You make me see the songs I thought I knew in a whole new light. Thank you
They said so much in this simple song.
It still amazes me that young people like you are really starting to appreciate music like this. I don't know if it means you like the sound of it better than what is played today, but I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Rhodes keys is the sound of the 70s. Love it. The most mellow sound Rick bass ever. Usually it's more like the Chris Squire sound.
I love the album version.. but live they're amazing musicians an humans .... 70's was a wild time an music is what helped me to survive.... Girl .... 1st time subbing!!! ✌🏻💗😊❣️
Yes live.. but even in the original they've layered their voices to get that ethereal sound .... They can harmonize baby... Remember they didn't use what ppl do now...

Beautiful voice with a transcendent quality, In much of their music.
Great reaction.
From my high school years back in the 70’s! I really enjoy you and other young people listening to these old tunes👍

It is so wonderful that a young person today can relate to a great song from the past, and understand it perfectly. Young lady, you are a treasure.

I propose to my first wife with that song on the radio playing in the background, the 70s was just awesome music. I love your reactions. Thank you so much.
Damn! I listened to this song about 1,000 times, then actually proposed to my wife. That was in 1986...still there.
this was a red hot summer in London 1976 in my early 20s takes me back to those heady days of the 70s
Ditto
70s great times now these time's thing's are quite depressing.
I remember the heat of ‘76! I was visiting in Manchester!
1975 actually but great times, Number 1 for 2 weeks from 22nd June 1975, spending 11weeks on the Chart.
Youre smile got me crushing hard! Seriously though, I love watching you experience the emotion of the music. Simply pure, naturally wonderful. You pick up on things I missed and I appreciate that so much. makes me appreciate some of my favorite older songs all the more. Thank You!!!
Seminal song, brings back an ocean-liner worth of memories for me, and seeing you, so many years later, really enjoying it, is both bizarre and exciting!! Thank you so much, there's so much more from our era...Needless to say, there are many more 10cc songs/albums worth checking out.
I have previously put this 10cc on my favorite list, but your comments have made this group 20cc
I was a kid growing up in the 70's the music was great. listened to a lot of radio there were really only the 3 networks to watch on tv so music was more my thing.. I love watching you react to this music your smile just lights up my computer screen.. such a beautiful lady.. makes me wish i was 30 years younger ..
I have danced so many times to this song. I love your enthusiasm and love of the music.
New to the channel! I have heard this song a million times but watching your reactions and facial expressions is pure joy😎
I was in my 20s when this came out I just got out of the Navy and I met a girl who I liked but I was still processing getting out of the service and Vietnam love was hard to feel, I felt more alone in a world I didn't understand so we parted, but this song really spoke to me
This is the sound of flowing red wine being performed by a group of artists who have each achieved Master status.
A dying breed of musicians who create music instead of just sounds.
The reason those backup vocals are piped in is because, if I'm not mistaken, in the studio they layered the harmonies until there were over 100 voices.
So sweet.
Your reactions are tip-top, princess.
And it was them over and over.
WOW! They freakin crushed that...great reaction!
They also had a great hit titled "The Things We Do For Love."
The singer is Mick Wilson. He is an amazing singer. I loved watching you enjoy it, I love this song, too.
First time I heard the Aaaaaahs from a synth, when this came out, since then every synth I own has pretty much that sound bank in it, Still gives me the creeps and goosebumps on my arms. When I use this for an arrangement, it's like heaven opens, if you use it on a subtle way, like 10cc did.
Good discovery for you. I got introduced to the band in 1982, whilst in England at Uni. Been hooked on that tune ever since. Memories of love lost via a letter after a year absence. True story...enjoy. ..

With my earphones on and my eyes closed it sounded just like the studio version. Class act.
Good live performance! At the time this was released it would not have been (easily) possible to do a faithful live performance of this song because the infinite sustain vocal "keyboards" had to be done with tape loops and faders on the mixing desk. These days of course you can put anything you want into a keyboard.
I grew up with this song. I call it the song of denial.
Listen to the bass closely in this song, the player is doing his own thing, while adding depth, love it!!
he's whistling past the graveyard, he knows he done, lol.
Always loved this tune. It was quite unique when it was released. In a special kind of way. And still is for me.
I’ve always loved this song. What they did for the “going to space” thing was pretty flippin’ complicated. I was watching a doc with some of the Engineers and Producer. BTW… the “Big boys don’t cry” section was spoken into a single track, then mixed in afterward. It was “performed” by one of the Administrative Assistants. PS. I think you’re great. You bring something to this type of platform that others simply don’t… or can’t. I don’t know exactly what it is, but it’s an sense of optimistic freshness. Openness and honesty. It’s really something. Keep doing what you’re doing… don’t stop. I have a feeling this is but one step toward something much bigger for you. God Bless you. Cheers…
🙏🏽
@@RogueRxyce Nothing but love. I would love to see you do a Radiohead reaction… “Let Down”, “Creep”, “How To Disappear Completely.” Never change young Lady.
What a beautiful, charismatic, intelligent lady, she deserves a TV career.
One has to be used to UK sense of humour to appreciate some of their songs. This one is universal.
You can really appreciate this 👍🏻❤️
I am 62yrs and i have been so blessed to hear the range of music growing up.🥰🥰🥰
