Music Video For Rod Stewarts Handbag's and the Gladrags, Starring My Little Brother (:
It took me ages to edit, the lip syncing was torture!
my mum used to fly, she loved rod and she loved handbags and gladrags, played for her at her funeral. amazing loving caring woman, miss you mum.
One of the saddest songs ever written. A masterpiece...
the glorious 60's and 70's will NEVER be beaten for every genre of music.those of us who lived it knew it was a special era.
Dating my Wife in 1975. Listened to Sir Rod for hours in her new car, kissing an necking... She passed away in 2010. This song brings me back to those beautiful, Nights.......Miss my Wife................Thanks Rod.................................
thats so touching... to have felt such love in your lifetime you truly had...you trul....*remembers ricky gervais having a dance off*...you had a good life..*duh DuH DuH Duh DUH DUH!* and your wife in heaven is waiting on you.
How is life now ?
bless you man never is easy losing your loved ones i hope it gets easier for you
Music can bring us right back to a beautiful time. Bless you brother and sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your loss Brian. Peace man!!
Most people think the version from their era is the best, or from their favorite artist. Thing is, is it's not a competition. Rod Stewart had the woodwind counter melody put in which made the song so much more melencholic than previous versions and which all subsequent versions have. Also Kelly closely paraphrases Rod's versions vocal including ad-libs. They both do an excellent job! Thanks for putting it on and you made a very professional job with the video.
His voice makes me shiver,even now ❤️
One great thing about Rod Stewart is the quality of songs he chose that he didn't pen; from Tim Hardin to Cat Stevens, he knew the songs that he loved and could interpret with his own inimitable style. God bless you Rod, you're an elderly statesman of the British rock establishment now but truly loved and respected by so many. Respect.
The videos I stumble upon
The song is a classic
The daughter is gifted with the film making
the camera angles are great
The back shot with the boy walking is excellent
The boy is the key to family. He makes his sister stronger-she protects him.
anyone who finds any negativity in this film is only jealous of the love between this whole group.
This man has more then the any rich man-he has love
Could bring tears from a stone...
Am I the only 60 year old guy choking back tears? Well done!
You're not alone! I still have this album from '69. I've shed tears to this song since then.
No. Utter disbelief in the difference between then and now.
Maybe, we had it
too good
Because today is not
Even in the same dimension.
Im 22 choking back tears as well. Listened to tgis song a lot as a teenager
@@brotherbear1162 Many women chocking them back too. Well this one is and I can imagine all my teenage friends would be too.
Nope
Being a woodwind player, I've always loved this song. Beautiful oboe and french horn..........
Fantastic !what more is there to say!
"Handbags and Gladrags" is a song written in 1967 by Mike d'Abo, who was then the lead singer of Manfred Mann. D'Abo describes the song as "saying to a teenage girl that the way to happiness is not through being trendy. There are deeper values."
Leander Hamilton The Stereophonics did a cover of it in 2001 too
Well, I didn't know this and am glad you told me mate. Why are people always dick heads on comment section? 🤣
Excellent lyrics
@gnilttbs
Youre such a smart ass. I didnt know that bit of information & why do you have to criticize someone for posting it?
@gnilttbs
Do the rest of you "knows" how to speak proper English? It's "the rest of us "know" not "knows"
Look it up
Its beautiful its beautiful
never tell anyone about the details
its yours who cares about the ones around you
you have the ability to love
you have everything
This masterpiece talk about the time of innocence... the time that we have all lived the time of our childhood ...Thank you Sir Rod!!!

Valentino Valentini thank you so much. I hope you might subscribe and check out other videos of Josh ♥️ ua-cam.com/users/JoshBroughster
A fabulous song. I used to listen to this on my sisters transistor radio late at night. Classic stuff
Beautiful and sad. One of my favorite songs ever. You can teach some performers to wail but they cannot make you feel.
One of the masterpieces created in the 60's (('69). Rod Stewart is a great singer and always works with top notch musicians. Love the film too. Song could mean so many things to so many people. Remember seeing the the title in a list on a loss leader compilation even before I heard the song as a child. Thanks Sammie for the glimpse of the countryside. England?
Just a beautiful track by Rod. I think perhaps a lot of folks can relate to the words.
just in case you're not aware, Rod's version is also a cover, albeit the most iconic recording of the song. the first person to record the song was Chris Farlowe in 1967 and it was written by Mike d'Abo (from Mannfred Mann).
Brings back memories, some fond, some regrets, a true folk ballad.
Can’t help but cry when I hear this. Incredibly emotional lyric/melody. Love it😢
one of my favorite songs, ans I've been coming back to this video for years now...thought I'd finally say that I appreciate it!
When Rod was in top form there was not another front man who could touch him. A beautiful and brilliant work by Mike d'Abo who's playing piano.

@@brendahawkins3965 He's a talented young man. It's a tough business to get into. As Tom Petty said, "if you are thinking that I could be a musician or a lawyer, then become a lawyer, because if you choose music, it has to take your full commitment." Take care & stay well!
Michael Ulbricht thank you Michael 😘
This is the Road Stewart that I loved and admired. Great songs, concepts and musicianship. Before he went disco and commercially heavier. Now he thinks he's Frank Sinatra or some soul singer. I don't know -- I still respect him as a singer and performer but he needs to do another Gasoline Alley and redeem himself a little. He's one of the survivors of the rock era -- he has the talent still...the maturity too. He and Dylan seem to be grasping for things in the past -- but they are things they didn't create. So they can't possibly resurrect those old jewels. No more than if those old singers tried singing one of their tunes seriously. Enough with the nostalgia...one album suffices, we get the message, you liked those songs and grew up on them. Now, get back to what you do best. (Am I being too harsh? Or logical?). I want my old Rod Stewart back -- there are songs out there that are as good as Gasoline Alley's that could be Gasoline Alley II or Return to Gasoline Alley. I would rather listen to Rod tackle blues the way Tom Jones does than MOR standards. I am listening to his "Cut Across Shorty" right now...damn. Excellent beyond compare.
+John LaStrada You, Sir, have a real taste in music.
oh I remember the good old days with Elton John before he turned gay and long John Baldry. Rod had the best blues voice of all time and blew it
One doesn't turn gay. One comes out. I pray that your closemindedness develops into fruition. Peace, DMB
I'm with you. It makes me cringe when these old rockers start sounding like lounge singers. On the flip side, Rod would be too old for Maggie May now!
Rockin Bluzcats very funny Son. You know he was married to Renata. Stop being an idiot
This is one of his best. Love!!!!!! the video!!!!
great song, love Rod Stewart, your little brother is amazing bless him, hugs x
Thank your daughter for making this video. She adds a layer of meaning to the song, how we can feel like a 7 year-old when we first understand something monumental.
The best song Rod ever performed.
Beautiful song..Very meaningful lyrics...Powerful
I always liked this song. Kind of a lonesome one. The video captures that. Nice work.
Masterpiece...Thank's.
Rod Stewart..... is One class act
I Got Goosebumps listening to this wow!! x
That wee guy has a great voice.
Sounds just like Rod Stewart
Can’t beat this....love Rods voice 🥰😍🥰😘
Very well done, creative and original. Thanks for posting an old favorite.
It's got to be 'your 'poor' old Grandad'. To me, that's whats the songs all about - one of the best songs I have ever heard
It's 16th November 2020. I'm quarantined because my uncle has got the virus. Listening to this song after watching The Office. ❤
This video is BADASS! The grasses, the bracken and the Queen Anne's Lace blowing in the wind..The stone walls, and of course this beautiful and innocent young boy. It is haunting and unforgettable. One of my favorite songs by Sir Rod. Well done!
Wow, this brings me back. Great song.
The best version of a great song.
Most definitely although Stereophonics version is brilliant as well
The Office brought me here.

Thanks Samm. Always loved this song. Nice job by your little brother. Long may you all run.
Perfect voice as always...best cover of this song
Brilliant song. Fantastic artist. Beautiful video. 🍀

♥️ My Mother always said this song reminded her of me. Funny, because Mandolin Wind reminds me of my relationship to her. ( Though I don’t have a steel guitar... I’ve got my dog 🐶) 😉 ♥️
Greatness! The history of this beautiful song is interesting. Everyone who heard it knew it was a hit and maybe a career maker.
Rod Stewart was lucky enough to be able to record it first and he did a great job.
Actually he was the third to record, this , behind Chris Falowe in 1967 and then Love Affair in 68.
The song was written by Mike D'Abo and ithe original recording was done by Chris Farlowe Rod Stewart did a cover of it on his first (and I think, best) album "An Old Raincoat Won't Ever Let You Down). Mike D'Abo was the lead singer of Manfred Mann's Band from 1966-69. He also sang (I guess Herod) on the original recording of "Jesus Christ Superstar". Thank you for püosting this wonderful version of a wonderfu song. Cheers to your brother.
That was a great touch starring your little brother in black and white.Great job.
That song speaks for itself
The Office brought me here!!
Only on the Episode 3 series 1 and im hiding behind my pillow.This is the most "CRINGE" comedy ever. Absolutely genius Ricky gervias....
Same! just watched that episode
I always loved this song, still love it ,thank you for sharing the music video❤
one of those classic songs that stand the test of time
I am going to the UK for the first time in March 09. I expect to travel from London to Manchester and Liverpool at some point. I will see if I can make the stop along the way. thanks!!
The piano in this is really great. The singing flows more and sounds less stressed than in this version it's a great song all in all though wether it's Rod Stewart or Stereophonics
I love the black and white....well done....to think that the person that took the time to create this lovely piece will be able come back to this same page in 10 years from now and 10 million views and this video will still be here......now that's cool...
Hey, just a word about the lip syncing: It's perfect. I mean of course it's NOT perfect, but the fact that it's NOT is exactly why it IS. Hope somebody understands what I'm trying to say. It just makes it feel real for some reason. And I can tell you my wife found the video really emotional... and not just that we've always loved the song. So... thanks for this.
Totally get it
I had the 8 track to this song & it's album I would play every night while dozing off to sleep. Fabulous just fabulous, it hits just right...
Great post
✌️2 ya
One of my favorite old Rod Stewart songs.
Oh, my god, what are you trying to do to me? That is totally priceless. Great way to wake up, seeing this in the morning. Thanks. That yourng man is grown now, wowz.
Rod is my favorite and always will be I love this song, those were the days when music was great!
Thank you Sammie' this was the song that made me realise how great rod was.
Nice job! Probably my all time fave from Rod STEWART!
My father loved rod stewert an i truly think that this video says it all....very well filmed the little dude in it is sure to be a star one day, top notch and thank you for showing me :)
Good HQ audio and support video, wonderful song, thanx
So sorry Sammie , i thought you were a young man , i see you are a very nice young lady with bags of talent, much RESPECT !!!!!.
I’ll always love you babes .Thank you for showing this .
Reminds me of the young people , who forget about their elders and
what they gave up to give them the right to have they're opinion..
This is one of them hidden jewels on YT. I hope it stays up forever.
I recently found Rod Stewart's "Storyteller" anthology on cassette at Goodwill. I've heard this song before but today is the first time I really listened to it. I think Rod is very underrated, and this song is one of his best.
+freakygeek90 He wasn't underrated at the time he released this. When he did the disco bit, people quit taking him seriously. He did some good stuff later. Look for him live with Ron Wood, doing Mandolin Wind. They are seated and Rod is playing banjo. Amazing. I saw him in concert before his disappointing disco fluff. He filled the Omni arena in Atlanta and had Jeff Beck with him. The Omni has since been torn down, but it was the place of many, many famed concerts.
+EmpressOfWyoming58 I agree when he did Hot Legs. . . but its the equivalent of Bruce doing the same when he was with actress
It wasn't so much "Hot Legs", as it was "Do ya think I'm Sexy". "Hot Legs" came from "Footloose & Fancy Free", which actually was a pretty decent album, bringing with it "You're in my Heart" which was one of his (later) better known songs.
It was the black lycra tights and cheetah smock combo
@@bbtrixie2653 Young Hearts came later?
Many yesrs have passed sibce you made this video, I wish you and your brother could do a redo of this video with your younger brother now older..it would be a forever classic..hope this text finds you both well..thankyou for this wonderful video
'The Chase' brought me here! X
the english countryside is beautiful, great b&W photography
amazing song....and in listening, and reading the comments, I have learned even more......such a message that will never leave me.....TIMELESS.....
All listen to "Reason to believe" This is another Rod classic and someone else when poor Rod passes will release it!
He is a master of music plus voice , his music and songs will live foreever
+Nick Manning
I agree, Nick. This song and Reason to Believe are the two best songs by Rod Stewart. Although they were written by other songwriters, nobody delivers them better. They both have great lyrics and terrific instrumentation that lends to the mournful, reflective tone. They still hold up over 40 years later.
+Nick Manning Mandolin wind and country comfort are up there too.
Great !. Your brother did a fantastic job too. One of my favorite songs, so bittersweet for me. Thanks for sharing.
This was the 1st song I favorited . This video charms my sox off. You have a true creative gift. Thank you.
Lol, this kid is SO British that you can literally see his accent on his lips as he lipsyncs. Very cute, and great job all around.
Really charming video to accompany this. Excellent work
My favorite of all time!!
This is a wonderfully strange song. It is moving in ways that are difficult to describe, but it moves you with meaning.
Next to this video was an advert failing to sell me $40-60 handbags. Ha!!
Thanks for the post: Great song & video. Great acting & filming. Especially like the last shot!
Original and the best ..enough said .
I like the shit out of Rod Stewart's music. And this early cut of his is among the very best. The music, all of it; that plaintive piano, the forlorn horn, the everything. And the lyrics? What can anyone say? Poetry in the highest sense of the word. And then there is, of course, his vocal. There is nothing like his vocals. Nothing at all.
Richard Marshall Bowman
He didn’t write it. It was written by Mike D’Abo. Therefore no credit to him for the lyrics. Great vocals in the early days though -Gasoline Alley, Every Picture Tells a Story, Never a Dull Moment etc.
@@MrFrampo56 Mike D'Abo, father of Olivia and cousin of Maryam? Quel family
Hank Hardigan
I guess so. He was in Manfred Mann. I know nothing else about him. He was a hardly a major talent; as for his relatives - never heard of them. Quel fromage n'est - ce pas?
@@MrFrampo56 Fair play
It copy 1965 ithink ok
I love it and this has been one of my favorite songs all of my life...great video montage.
You tryed, love the song,cute kid,nice farm.God bless ya
It's about the girl taking everything for granted, and believing that having the latest clothes and accessories will make her fit in and get her where she wants to be. But she forgets that someone else had to pay for them for her, and that looking trendy will get her nowhere if she doesn't have an education.
Amazing how relevant that still is today!
simply beautiful..............
Hi would love to know what you think of my 17 year old grandsons cover of this ua-cam.com/video/T7Emz268Dio/v-deo.html
Kelly jones 's voice is really richer than Rod Stewart's one in my opinion, but this "older" version is not bad. And I really appreciated the video!! I love the spirit this footage emanates! Really cool!!
What a wonderful song and equally wonderful video! I remember this song from the early seventies: it brings back such memories.
Very well shot Samm! Beautifully done :)
good choice on the black and white. Your little brother is a cutie.
Beautiful song, great video.
thanks for the song! and your little brother is really cute. good job!
So beautiful... ~.~
just beautiful!
Lovely just lovely!
We are having a hard time with our teen grand daughter and this song says it all about what is happening in her life today, I tear up just hearing the song being sung, was the song written by Mike D,abo from Manfred Mann, I am sure I watched him perform this song on youtube
I feel sad and peaceful looking at this....I love it.
What a lovely video xxx
Love it.....super aesthetic......my taste completely
