Great video. The visuals and sequence are expressive and representational. Great job. I've always liked the song very much. I'ts one of my all time favorites.
I remember listening to this song in my room on my cool little radio that brought all the best FM songs into my world at the time. Such a cool song! Thanks for posting!
Awesome slide guitar! It has that George Harrison sound, of course because he wrote it. This is one of the best classic rock songs of all time and makes me feel soooo good every time I hear it!
@Sheilamarie2 Cant believe after all this time that nobody told you: the late great Pete Ham, who you her singin, wrote this one. I think Harrison produced it tho, so you`re close.
@okcomputer1016 Pete Ham wrote this song. You're thinking of Come and Get It which Paul McCartney wrote for them. And you can certainly tell that he wrote that song and this song is a very similar style.
An ALL-TIME CLASSIC TUNE..Such a JOY to listen to ..And wow, its LEVEL of musicality - the lyrics, vocals, melody, musicianship, production - is so....RIDICULOUSLY HIGH!!!
Yes, George Harrison did play on this one and produce it but it was written by Badfinger. I have always thought it sounds like two drummers on this and that Ringo also played on this alongside the Bandfinger drummer. The slow tom fills, one of Ringo's signature sounds, are all over this.
I remember this song very well. I was in the 5th grade back then. This one girl named Lori was absent from school for an extended period of time. I was staying after school to help the teacher wash the blackboard etcetera. I asked her where has Lori been? She said. Phil.. Lori passed away from Leukemia. Won't ever forget that day. i think about Lori everytime I hear this song.
@Hope2009pc It is fascinating how our mind works. I can hear a song and it will leave a permanent impression of someone or some incident...Regardless how long ago the memory was it always seems as if it was today:(( Sorry to hear of your bad memory of Lori:((
This version is going on my glam rock list just because it's awesome, and glam rock was about getting the ladies, and how could you lose with lyrics like "I gave my love to you?" epic.
Does sound like George's guitar style for sure. I was going to say that they copied it.

George Harrison played beautiful slide guitar in this. This song sounds as good today as when I first heard it in 1972. Love it!

This song is both melancholy and hopeful. Either way it reminds me the 70's. These years so fantastic!

when you hear that Paul McCartney wrote this song, you like listen to the song for about 1 second and go, "Yeah, pretty much." ha. great tune.
