[thefabulousthomasj]

Leo Sayer.

The poor man's Elton John.

Loved his music; just couldn't stand to see him perform.

Very hammy, and that's putting it nicely.

Thanks for posting this. . .

[LarryRickenbacker]

Love this song; sounds kinda 'Stones-ish to me.

[pfordsq]

Love the original , but this performance has more attitude and edge.

"I did a two - step , quick step and a Bossa Nova !".

[maisecret1]

[daremba]

[chrisd1691]

I saw Leo last night, to all the Leo fans out there, you will be happy to know he was great.

[danasteve524]

@kksvesta YEP! I was 5 also when this came out, and thanks to a much older brother, he had me hearing stuff I can look back to without any regret of all this great music!

[rockerbox1973]

[misterht]

This is a rare footage. A real classic..Thanks for posting.

[MrKrissdekaliss]

Not sure he can dance but... he can SING! Go Leo!

[bcca22730]

i love it

[matts156]

Good grief, I haven't heard this song in 30 years. I'd forgotten how fun this song is.

[kindagoofy1]

he can't dance, but he can sing. Great song!

[ShatteredDreamsv23g5]

...Ha... They should make this song into the Just Dance for the Wii... =]

[sandicarriagehousela]

I have some 'new' leo sayer records (45's) that have never been sold and have been in storage, if anyone wants them let me know!

[JoeyFudd]

There's a rumor that his cousin is Richard Simmons! ;)

[WaxLonghorn]

Thanks Leo, Brilliant!

[LeoSayerVideos]

What a great clip!

[xz4q18]

By the way 'Giving it All Away' is not Roger Daltrey's song. It was written by Leo Sayer and Dave Courtney who had a big hand in Leo's brilliant debut album.

[swami1]

The chorus was correct: he can't dance.

[DaveWollenberg]

hit #9 in the US (Billboard). How'd it do in the UK? God bless!

[ShelbyPreziosisede34]

google mp3iiify to download this song from youtube.

[lisamishell]

We made up a dance to this in Year 7 in 1974 and I still remember it. Great song Leo!!

[goodole1]

wow, takes me back.... I was with a certain lady back then and this song reminds me of her.

[DCNY31279]

He looks like the guy who falls off the bridge in Saturday Night Fever.

[Trashfished]

@DCNY31279 LOL! So tue!!

[mistofoles]

HA HA HA!! He looks about 14 here!!

[dannysallstarjoint]

I had a little crush on a boy when this song came out. Everytime I hear this song, it takes me back.

[Gymjenna]

luv it!!!! lol jkkkkk

[Glamking1]

Well later in 1974. Leo got rid of his clown posteria outfit, but i think he had the afro in this promo video as a first appearence in the autumn of 1974.

I think it proved a great change and made him a heart-throb.

[kjgoya777]

There will only ever be one Leo S...us Aussies love him heaps too!!!

[laggie24]

I guess he moved because he was much fond of the Foster than the Brit ale's...just kidding :)

All the best from Budapest

[antoniomontana82]

2:29 lol. he gets me al the time.He was known for his face expressions, not to mention his great talent.

[ChemtrailsEire]

Good one! The irony of it eh! Leo couldn't dance haha!

True! :))

[Tpaoldskool]

GREAT STUFF!!! Thanks for posting.

[Barsopen1970]

Loved Leo's stuff, have quite a number of his albums ... for such a little bloke he could really put some powerful vocals into his material, " Thunder In My Heart " was an example.

[SunnyMissDee]

What a shame this video has been taken off. It showed him as I remember him....irrespressible performances.

[retroj25]

Are you referring to this Leo vid MissDee ... as it is still working.

[SunnyMissDee]

Yes, I was referring to this. My mistake though, my browser took a while to show it. Where did you find it anyway? Do you have more of him?

[retroj25]

I got this vid from a show from 1986 called Rock Relics (in Oz) which played vids from the 70s & some 60s.

I actually have quite a lot of Leo's vids ... I'm in the process of transferring my clips from video to DVD.

I might group his clips together & put them up if there is enough interest.

[SunnyMissDee]

PLEASE, PLEASE post some Leo stuff. I'm in the UK and although I was only 7 in 1976, I remember him as totally effervescent. I still love his music and would love to see some fresh Leo magic. By the way, I'm totally obsessed with You Make me Feel Like Dancing.

[noonuspiggle]

i saw Leo at the State Theatre in Sydney a few years ago,what a little ball of energy!
