  • Best version of Come up and see me(Make me smile) by Steve Harley, much better voice and groove :)
    Its nice to see so many have the same taste as myself.
    I will keep sharing more in the future as i find rare sessions, if they are better than the original ofcourse ;)
    Please take a look at my friend`s channel: Stonefield Music, he has just started and is pretty good at it. Im putting a couple of links below.

      I've had his writing on my playlist for a few years now. I haven't heard of him yet. These songs never made it to us. I think it fits in with the music I used to play as a kid in the late '70s...

    Today I feel a part of me left my soul. I have been a ‘Stevo’ fan since 1973 where, at the Roundhouse, an elderly lady attacked the queue waiting to see Cockney Rebel (for blocking the pavement). I never saw or heard a poor Steve Harley performance. One of the most hard-working and honest performers you would ever wish to see. The music lives on and will for evermore. Performing was his ‘job’ and he took it seriously. Family was his life and inspiration. My tears are for them and in memory of what joy he brought to my life. I came up and saw you many times and you really did ‘Make me Smile’.

    The news of Steve's passing has me reaching for the tissue box. It's only when they leave us that we stop to ponder the imprint they had on our lives. So many memories. The profound words of the brilliant poet. 'Oh you'll think it's tragic when that moment first arrives, oh but it's magic, it's the best years of our lives. I'm lost now for the words to tell you the truth. All I can say is thankyou Steve for bantering with me the banter of youth.

    I was frankly terrified to watch this. I thought that he might be a shadow of the mega-cool-cat he was in the 1975 video that was my previous obsession. (You know the one - he's got on a maroon bowler and matching long overcoat and he is magnificent.)
    But how wrong I was! He's aged gorgeously, and his voice is superb. That hint of raspiness gives it a lived-in quality that brings depth and wisdom to this song. He's probably performed it - what? - ten thousand times? More? And it's still so fresh. I am newly in love.

      I think you mean 44 ;-) The song was done in 1975 and it's now 2020 and your comment is a year ago .... 2019 .... so 44 not 21but you're forgiven ;-) Yes, Steve definitely still has it ;-)

    When I was at university, a drunken housemate would always come stumbling into my room in the early hours of the morning to amicably demand that I play this song for him on my acoustic guitar. It's such a great song that I was always only too willing to oblige. 😅 Very sad news and very much missed 🙏

    Of all the performances that Steve has done of this song over many years, this is by far the best musically and vocally. Steve's voice was spot on and the backing singers were excellent. I think this is the 12th time I've watched this in 3 days, just brilliant.
