Don't take your love away from me
Don't you leave my heart in misery
If you go then I'll be blue
'Cause breaking up his hard to do
Remember when you held me tight
And you kissed me all through the night
Think of all that we've been through
Breaking Up Is Hard To Do
They say that breaking up is hard to do
Now I know, I know that it's true
Don't say that this is the end
Instead of breaking up I wish that we were making up again
I beg of you, don't say goodbye
Can't we give our love another try
Come on baby, let's start a new
'Cause breaking up is hard to do

How can someone not lose one note, one pitch after a half-a-centry? All the timing and it is still played so easily
If you listen to Oh Carol from this same show he makes a mistake at the beginning but corrects himself perfectly.
On his UA-cam page he does daily mini-concerts from his home. He’s still “got it.”
Well it’s in a lower key for a start. 😂😂😂😂
slower and lower key. and prob talent
Years of practice. My piano teacher told me it’s muscle memory. For example when you drive your car and change the gear(manual) your hand will go straight to the gear knob without looking. The same applies to the piano. We are taught not to look at the keys when playing. Well my teacher taught that way. Elton John is a great example - his hands move up and down the keyboard and he doesn’t look down. Occasionally he will as does Neil. The order of the keys in particular the black keys allow you to find your place by the physical feel of the keys. There are times players will intentionally look at the keyboard when performing-gives them a break from looking into the darkness and smiling etc to people they can’t see.
Man he is so cheery it is infectious. You just can't help but smile and bop your head with the music, and he still sounds just as good, even after all these years! Fun!
Alex, oh my gosh, you wrote this comment - 13 years - ago! Neil is amazing. I fell in love with him at age 15 (yikes) - I’m 55 now. I heard his slower rendition of this song and I was hooked! You know how teenaged girls like to cry, and yes, who knows why. It was good to see you have the same thoughts I have about Neil’s infectious joy as he plays. It’s certainly easy to see. Isn’t it marvelous? ❤️
Who's listening in 2024???
Me since the 1990s.
2020? Isa kba sa humahanga sa galing ng boses at pag piano ni Neil Sedaka? Like naten to kabayan 👍🏻
Oo walang kupas
Matanda na pero guapo pa rin!
Galing pa rin batang bata ang boses pati pagplay ng Piano
Listening to this live version of this song makes Neil Sedaka look like one cool, classy cat!!
He looks so cute singing this song with the piano.
Listening from the Philippines
As stated if any belongs in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame it is Neil Sedaka.
waking up is hard to do
MrRadwint19 z waking up is hard to do. I think of this song every morning cos my son won't get up for school!
Low class moron.
Neil & paino sound very good
This was recorded on July 15th 2004, in the Royal Albert Hall
Nice
My late father introduced me to Neil Sedaka's songs in the 80's while learned a musical instrument, and I still love them in 2021
I saw Neil Sedaka on stage in the late 70s. Originally, we went to the concert to see his BACK UP Andy Gibb and were going to leave right after. Who wanted to see that old fashioned, unhip old guy? He was of my older sisters generation, not mine. While leaving the venu he started his first song. We stopped, listened and were blown away! He was a phenomenal showman who had the huge audience in the palm of his hand. One of the BEST concerts ever that I have never forgotten.
Neil still has that fabulous voice! He should be inducted into the Hall of Fame.
Wonderful song...I like it so much...Neil Sedaka has a incredible voice and plays very well !!
I agree!! 😍😍😍
I'm a 29 year old man, but my mother plays all this 60s stuff at home and it just grew on me. This is a great song. People need to be a bit less pretentious about music, if something is catchy and you like it then more power to you.
My daddy used to sing this song to me every night when I was little, and he's now teaching me how to play it on piano♥ love this song :D
If you like good music, clear lyrics, meaningful words and great piano playing, Neils your man.
I used to listen to his songs with my grandfather as a child... Glad to hear he's still as good as he was then.
Long live Neil Sedaka he is an excellent artist and gentleman
Great song and great performer! Two thumbs up to Neil Sedaka!
One of THE greatest artists of all time. Some people just PRACTICE music,,,but this guy UNDERSTANDS music.Are you listening Rhianna , Sheeran , Beyonce, Gallagher ,,and the rest of you pretenders?
What a man! Alone with a grand Yamaha at RAH! Fantastic ! Neil is one of the big ones!
the bridge in that song is one of the greatest feats in music history.
Culpano Isn't that the truth!
you are right on!
"Breaking up is hard to do". That's the purest expression of reality! I'm living it!
Great love this
Perfect !!! Our Elton John from the 60s. I Love Sedaka's songs. What a such talent, a real Show Man !!!! It never gets tired to hear It.
Man is truly Awesome !! I know he loves his family, especially his Grand kids !
Now That's Talent! A piano and a voice, a concert wih thousands of people. Simply One Of The Best in The Business.
i like this version.. this song is truly pure and innocent.
the piano intro really reminds me of joplin's "the entertainer"...
Piano skills. He's got them.
Ele canta MUITO BEM!!! Tão dificil achar um cantor mais velho cantando tão bem ainda!!!!!!!!!
This came so easily to a man who was a pro musician from the day he was born.
How can his voice be even better!! 😍
I love Neil's music !!!
Who can sing like that anymore? Now is all autotune, echos, and editing. His voice is clear even though he is older. Hard to keep that after many years of singing.
+Bill Chan but he still has that golden voice
he does.@michael jagger
This is a master at work. He has left hand on bass like a prize fighter.
This was an unbelievably wonderful show. I hope he can manage another UK show so I can see him live.
Thanks for this posting, Eagle Rock ! I'd signed the petition about two years ago. Wish
I could sign 100 times! This arrangement reveals the class of Neil. So exciting!!
Thanks again. Malcolm O'Brien.
one of pop musics top writers, great fun to listen to.
Gente eu vejo este vídeo e vejo um artista completo. Vejo a felicidade nos olhos de quem gosta do que faz. Gosto muito desta música e também de ohl Carol. Parabéns Sedaka e também que postou este vídieo.
One of the all time greats, and a class act. They don't make them like that anymore...
Wonderful. Superb live performance. Class. The real thing.
This dude still got it!!!
Braking-up is Hard to do
I was visiting Smith Falls, Ontario, a town with moral integrity, moral decency, my uncle Henri worked in RCA Record Co, My cousin Real said his girl friend suffered, Braking-up was hard to do. such memories ! ! !
Kosher Shyster & Ass, Canada, 2018
the bridge in this tune is so incredible the whole song is awesome!
Jesuschrist, that was brilliant!!
Brilliant love Neil Sedaka I grew up with the 60s music I was born 1968 but I cn listen to anything music brings us happy times n sad times we celebrate people's lives and those we love n share so many times cos when you love someone u fight n it takes 2 people to come together love hurts n breaking up is the hardest thing to do.thanku for these songs.xxx Lisa.
he's an amazing singer
On this day in 1962 {October 16th} Neil Sedaka performed "Breaking Up Is Hard To Do" on the late Dick Clark's American Bandstand...
Four months earlier on June 30th it entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart; and on August 11th it peaked at #1 {for 2 weeks} and spent 14 weeks on the Top 100...
Back-up singers on this version were the Cookies...
Thirteen years later in 1975 he recorded a slower version of the song; and on December 13th it entered the Top 100 and peaked at #8,,,
R.I.P. Mr. Clark...
A very talented man.
Love his piano playing!!
Saw him last night in Cardiff one word class
I love this song so much, it makes me feel so happy. Those haters who dislike this song, have no idea what good music is about..
Sedaka kickin' it!!! Simply Marvelous!!!
Awesome song, fantastic performed❤️❤️❤️❤️
You can't listen to his music and not smile.......try it!
Thank you for sharing this video!
I don't understand why does his videos has less views, he deserves more views more than millions....
Sedaka and Anka,,,two greats that awakened may hidden musical inclinations,,,,,thanks!
Neil Sedaka, sua alegria é contagiante, Adoro suas músicas!
Dobra Robota. Pozdrawiam Pana Neil
Dos bons tempos...da... inocência...
❤❤❤❤❤
I'm 16 and I love older music. Bassey, Elvis, Orbison and Sedaka is up there with the Super Ledgends.:)
really love neil sedaka with all my heart :))
im only 21 but i really love the songs of the 60's ..
drives me really crazy ! :))
Wow (: ชอบครับ :)
It was recorded in London at The Royal Albert Hall, April 7th 2006... :-)
Great solo concert - but I'd like to see Neil perform the European cities like Brussels, Amsterdam & Paris... He never did a full concert on the European continent, and that's a pity...
The DVD of this concert is just awesome!
The bridge of this song is so good
Gooooo on neil wat a great voice an great pianiest bigup to ya from bidzy westmids.gypsies england!!!!!
The great legend! Salute!
A true icon. The slow version is almost as good.
OMG I always thought the up-tempo teeny-boper version of the song was the one Sedaka was forced to put out by the record companies. This shows that he loves this version just as much as the slower soulful one of the 1970s. I hope he performs them both in concert.You really have to hear them both because they're not the same song.
Brilliant
Ahhhh como é gostoso ouvir cantar ❤❤
Love it his voice sounds the same that is a singer.
I love his ballads omg looking for this song as a ballad hes the best at ballads
Since I last posted, I have my just turned 4, and 7 year old girls singing this w/ me!!! hahaha... Just a fun song!!! God Bless Sedaka!
A thousand likes to you NS...
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pure Talent
Neil still got it love this song ❤️❤️
Wooow ! Suena como en los 60's, Neil Sedaka titán de titanes toda una leyenda viviente aún no pierde el ritmo, la voz no la ha perdido, suena tal como sus primeros años, un artista tan genial y contagioso que no puedes evitar mover los pies o la cabeza al ritmo de la música, es otro nivel.
Fantastic!
