Velvet Goldmine - Sebastian

[OllieK84]

Damn, that is so...intense, breath-taking emotional. The original Cockney Rebels´ is beautiful, but this one´s extended to new dimensions of music itself..

Is there any full-length version of this very interpretation existing?!

[serenadool]

MY GOD THIS MAN IS SO TALENTED. NOT ONLY IS HE A VERY CONVINCING AND PASSIONATE ACTOR BUT ALSO A BEAUTIFUL SINGER. WOW I COULD LISTEN TO HIM ALL DAY:)

[whitford6]

i'm pretty sure christian bale's character in the film is based on steve harley who wrote this song. he was a journalist too!

[flasticruth]

@whitford6 and they kinda look alike:D

[emisobevela]

this movie is so ameizing a love.

[sadictrone]

my fuckign god sebastian looks so gorgeous there just beautifffl

[starsailor0587]

his interpretation is magnific

[arthurofuente]

@Terminator79Aris put yuor glasses on....

[Danny30011980]

Oh I like the long hair on him...real hippie feel...!

[KnightOfDelusion]

@Terminator79Aris Velvet Goldmine, says so in the title and the description...

[Louise1107]

I love this movie so much, I've never seen this side of Ewan McGregor and Jonathan Rhys Meyers has such a gorgeous voice!!!

[Regenwurmbaendiger]

the hidden living gay crys as loudest!

[MagicDragonPuff7]

<3

[MrJustdve]

Actually the movie represents a part of David Bowie's life, but under antother name offcourse... But you knew that right?!

[gaia2407]

completely in love with this song <3

[xmethadoneprettyx]

he's so beautiful with long hair. =)

[TheDaughterofsin]

I so wish there was a full version of this

[Riola123]

:)

[TheJesterGirl]

It's kinda sad that David Bowie actually had to endure that kind of audience when he was wearing dresses and had long hair in the beginning. :(

[sigoog]

i love the original version (one of my favorite songs).. but i really wished there was also this version available.. its even better and more breathtaking.

[Musicaljunki]

mt god, he looks like that bitch in uh.....twilight? yeah. twilight. at least at the beginning.

[creepske]

where can i get this version, the others sound all robotic..

[MrSKIB123]

doesnt anyone like the man who swore lol he's my dad

[shadowprince101]

looks kinda like ville valo from HIM back in the early days of the band when he had REALLY long hair.

[TheDaughterofsin]

I am trying to figure out why so many girls (including myself) find guys that are very feminine so attractive. I dont ge tit but he is just so hot!

[arakirezumi]

@TheDaughterofsin dunno, but i also find him reaaally cool, i loved him so much when i first saw this film

and the song is awesome

i've the heart eyes blade's got when met ewan ;)

[TheDaughterofsin]

@arakirezumi I know right. But why is it that so many females conisder feminine guys so hot? I must say when I first saw this film I was 'wow hes so cool' lol I know I sound like a 13 year old girl at a jonas brothers concert but still he is so fucking awesome lol.

[Saladrazalahalahaz]

God damn, is this all there is? There needs to be the whole song.

[MissAnatomia]

omg, Brian Slade <3

[southernstar0946]

Gorgeous... Love this.. How can you beat Velvet Goldmine, 3 of the hottest guys ever, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Christian Bale, and Ewan McGregor..

[TMMaddict]

OH MY GOD

JRM is just so beautiful in that dress. A nod to The Man Who Sold The World, I guess.

I DIED FROM THE SABASTIAN.

fave movie+fave Steve Harley song

YAY!

those bastards in the movie has no taste.

[Indiegirl007]

He s so........PRETTY here. He looks like a girl.

[hopeswings007]

@Indiegirl007 hes sexy lol 

[MadPuppeteer]

i love love love him !!!!!!!!!!! he is so pretty

[oldshatterhand007]

this is the best version

[justgoaway111]

God, he's gorgeous.

[missL777]

He is so sexy *_____*

[Riola123]

miau :)

[Melville500]

Right right--- that's pure magic! Like Velvet Goldmine truly is,

[blackkat77]

this is too perfect

[Melville500]

Yee, And nobody (as far as i could know) but Todd Haynes couldn't have done that . In a sensitive level like this you just need a master film maker to save that to us. The more talented raw material is the more talented film maker you got to have. (And certainly a director do some magic things (that we don't know) to get his/her actors do something like that.) Okay, and anyway, that is fiction, a fiction that comes true like every true art eventually will.

[TOWSinger]

mi voglio vestire come lui per il prossimo live che farò!

[fuzzymoon1900]

Jonathan Rhys Meyers is so pretty in this film!

[Yeeeeeeeeeeaah]

In all film is pretty!

[MyTamang]

:-)

[jackfeirytheonlyone]

GREAT JRM. Absolute's version ISN'T very important.

[Ayrshirenutter]

there's no way that's Steve Harley singing.you'd better change your info AGAIN.

[KnightOfDelusion]

Ahh! I was referring to the song on my computer in the description box. Sorry for the mess :S I changed the info now.

[igguasu]

wow awesome

[ilovejourney1]

This song was the best in the movie. So you guys are saying it isnt on the soundtrack? The songs were cool, but the gay shit was over the top. I mean, every other scene was gayer than hell.

[AlexanderROCKS518]

damn i really wanted to get this song on the soundtrack, and now i guess i can't :'(

[DoubleIvan]

It's available to download from itunes. Just look for Steve Harley and 'Sebastian'.

[electr0lady]

The song is by Steve Harley but it's sung by JRM on the movie...

[guevashin]

my friend is in this film- he plays pearl

[Ajuvel]

why is this BEAUTIFUL song not on the soundtrack? is this again some sort of copyright-you-can-play-my-song­-in-the-movie-but-don't-publis­h-it-on-CD-thing...??? F**k this sort of copyright-bullsh*t!

btw JRM looks absolutely gorgeous!

[nikjagger]

i make me the same question !!!!!!!!!!!!

[bitchizback]

Jonathan is singing this version!!!

[magneticmisery]

Yeah, even If I was deaf, I could recognize his sweet voice, this is JRM.

[Riola123]

shut the

[lynniepantz]

This version IS steve harley. Its just not the version thats widely known. Only steve harley song on Velvet Golmine soundtrack that is a cover is "tumbling down".

[sairs2309]

I just watched Velvet Goldmine and the credits say vocal by JRM for Sebastian.

[Kwinquark1]

This version is NOT Steve Harley - end of. Tis quite good tho!

[AlanAyazyam]

i don't like the movie but the music is good jonathon obviously brilliant but i don't buy the other characters maybe i'm wrong

[vealer2]

love it  this movie rocks

[AynatTH]

i think Jonathan its beautiful ...so beautiful

i love him

[Indiegirl007]

I agree, he has a very androgynous look about him. His eyes are, whoa, breathtaking. With those hypnotizing eyes, I believe he can play a very good vampire.

[ladymiaa]

he is just the most amazing thing in whole world...and his voice's so angelic..jonny<3

[MrCrablouie]

who? Steve Harley?

[ladymiaa]

jrm

[MrCrablouie]

it is Steve Harley singing.. Steve Harleys voice..

[ladymiaa]

in this scene jonathan rhys meyer's singing..in the whole movie..

[hopeswings007]

hes sexy in this scene

[smiley468]

this voice sounds very weird ^^ i've heard some other songs from jonathan rhys meyers (this time from the movie august rush i think) and there his voice sound completely different ! but it's such a great song ! the best song from the movie and thei didn't put it on the soundtrack ... such a shame !

[alexejevna]

I have an original version "Sebastian" from Cocney Rebel - the main performer and the main writer of this song....heritage from my father....Great and powerfull song....

[spinsideways]

thanks for this information...o_o

[jakinushi]

could anyone send this song to me,not the original,

but version track by brian slade ...

[columbiancracka]

What were they thinking not putting this song on the soundtrack? It was one of the best ones and I cant even find it ANYWHERE! (not this particular one, anyway)

[arnaupleasures]

i'm absolutely agree.

[Anca1979]

oh and go see the movie if you haven't. Him and Ewan McGregor .... fabulous.

[FutureLegendDiva]

@Anca1979

And Christian Bale too!

[Anca1979]

yes, it's really him that's singing. I wish I'd have the full version of this song. Love it!! He also did the vocals for Baby's on Fire and Tumbling Down (same movie).

[spaceoddityy]

johnatan is wonderfull

[ninobudala]

is this really jonathan singin?? could anybody please tell me... :)

[Riola123]

Sebastian..... :)

[Amanicangel]

He's soo pretty here.. damn.

[MyNameIsSaintJimmy]

God. This movie is SO underappreciated. And he is so pretty in this scene.

[JxL483]

i aggree on both comments! its such a beautiful movie! and so clever. its realistic and exaggerated all at once. its amazing and has alot of wisdom in there.

and yeah... jonathon does look pretty in this scene ^-^s its my fave costume he has in the whole movie

[MyNameIsSaintJimmy]

Yeah, I totally agree on the "realistic and exaggerated" comment. I think that its like that because that's how the 70s glam scene was, so that the exaggerated parts ARE realistic. Everything had to be larger than life, and this movie showed it perfectly.

[Amanicangel]

He is soo so pretty in this scene isn't he? And you're right.. the movie was before its time. I love it

[elykelfan]

Where I can find and download this song, I really like the voice of jonathan please help me!

[MirrorsAndMonoxide]

His voice reminds me a bit of the singer of Dramarama's voice.

[KATIAfoithtrioula]

perfecT :))))))))))

[djmurra]

Sommmmmmmebody called me sebastian (8)

[KATIAfoithtrioula]

i <3 this scene!!!

[fxyfirecrotch]

[cuzilovu2]

[ZindyZin]

Fuckin amen!

[BunnaySango]

What the fuck does "Call me Sebastian" mean?

[stardel6]

watch the movie you will understand it more..

[BunnaySango]

I've seen the movie, "call me sebastian" didn't make sense then either.

[rainbow2thesky]

you've seen the movie, and that is your only question? :D

[stardel6]

He was so good in this movie.. I love this film.. It is so odd to me that more people have not seen it... But I am also a huge fan of Ewan Mcgregor that how I found this film and I rented like 12 times befor I just bought it..

[JRebG]

He sings this well :)

[Xrononaytis]

very good cover  the name of movie who is ;

[LittleBitTragedy]

Is it a cover? Whose song is this originally?

[LittleBitTragedy]

I found it.

[dutchsoccerbrain]

Steve harley and Cockney Rebel

[zlatickoxt]

Is there anyone here who could send this song to me, please? I love it but I can't find it anywhere.

Thank you for posting this video.

[Sokram1987]

Well... What do you want? The original track by Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel or the version track by Brian Slade (Jonathan Rhys Meyers)?

[zlatickoxt]

Both of them would be great.

[UnusAbsqueDeus]

The movie was a bit strange.

Although I did like it.

This was definitely my favorite song.

[BlueZephyr16]

this is my favorite song of the movie, i wish they played the whole thing

[tommyba59]

Brilliant ! Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel's classic from 1973....brilliant LIVE 35 years on!

Cheers for posting!

[hoktak]

I love JRM's voice and this song rocks! I wonder why it wasn't on the VG soundtrack?

[lamerienda92]

He reminds me Ville Valo in his youth !

[Aynir]

I love him.

[pokizeka]

...what a film...great song...great actor..

[greeksith]

Say has anyone ever heard this song sung in Greek? Theres a Greek ROck Artist that does the same song, plays the same mix but sings it in Greek. Its awesome and its how I was first introduced to Steves song!

[petrangelika]

Ich liebe diesen Film "Velvet Goldmine" sehr. Vorallendingen liebe ich den Hauptdarsteller Jonathan Rhys Meyers sehr, er ist ein wundervoller und sehr wandlungsfähiger Schauspieler und mit den langen Haaren sieht er sehr toll aus. Ein superguter Schauspieler-

[librermonami]

JRM is SO fine.

[DohertYinLovE]

J'adore trop cte musique: le film aussi bien ♥ love it ♥

[Ilma84]

I love Toni Colette! She's such a great actress!

And of course - I love this film!

[55fr5544]

i have always loved this song and the movie thanks for posting ...this song is not on the soundtrack =(

[MJjunkie86]

this song isnt on the sound track..... :(

[euphemienne]

whoua it's his real voice,he's a good singer.

[forta]

I'm sorry, it's not his real voice.

[xCrosseyedCirclex]

as far as i know, jonathan actually sung some of the songs in VG, but only in the movie, not on the ost, but i don't know which ones. do you know mybe?

[ReggaeSue]

I heard that jonathan sung The Ballad of Maxwell Demon, Baby's on Fire and Tumbeling Down. but "Sebastian" for example is vocalized by Cockney Rebel. but i'm quite shure that, during the movie, jonathan sung the songs..

[xCrosseyedCirclex]

ok, thanx^^

[adozenfuriesfan]

yes he is really singing sebastian.

[kayleightalitha]

I have the movie and according to the credits, Jonathan sang this song, Ballad of Maxwell Demon, Tumbling Down and Baby's on fire

[Kodamahime]

Yes. Jonathan sung all the songs performed by the band "The Venus In Furs" (Alternative name on Radiohead for the film, where JRM were the singer). He performed "The ballad of Maxwell Daemon", "Sebastian", "Tumbeling Down", "2HB", "Baby's on Fire", and "Bittersweet".

[solitarysoul92]

he actually didn't perform 2HB or Bittersweet, only Ballad, Sebastian, Tumbling Down and Babys On Fire.

[cuji91307]

Yes, Thom Yorke did the vocals for 2HB and Bittersweet.

[123gzl]

yes its his real voice, dont you know???

[forta]

Ask Jonathan :P

[123gzl]

puha:D:D

[tommyba59]

Brilliant! The classic Cockney Rebel (Steve Harley) track from 1973 'Sebastian' played by (?) in the film. It was No.1 across europe for many weeks but, sadly, never hit the heights in the UK. Thanx for posting!

[intowiz]

ok the two people watching the band, the guy behind them was my english teacher in secondary school. wayyyyyyyyyyy

[BillieJoeIsHawt]

jonathan rhys meyers looks amazing in a frok.

[Didymossy]

Would you please tell me the title of the film?

[chloe830]

Velvet goldmine.

[ravenharlow]

This is not on the movie soundtrack. Not sung by Jonathan or Steve Harley. As a matter of fact the song doesn't appear at all in the CD soundtrack which has always disspointed me. : /

[KnightOfDelusion]

You're right, it isn't on the soundtrack. I managed to find and download the song though, and it says it's from the soundtrack. Weird.

[ravenharlow]

Do you have the link to the download?

[xXxmarjow]

In which part of the movie is this song playing? I think their is a lost of playing missing, is that?

[KnightOfDelusion]

This clip comes somewhere after the first 30 minutes of the film. There is nothing missing, the part ends just as abruptly as this clip. A good song, right? :]

[xXxmarjow]

It is really a good song :-)

[xXxmarjow]

In which part of this moving is this happening, and why doesn't the song is going on to the and. I think their is part missing in the end, am I right?

[xXxmarjow]

In welk stuk van de film komt dit voor?

[KnightOfDelusion]

Sorry, don't understand ^^"

[1killingjoke]

I think it's pretty at the beginning at least in the first third. of course the song is much longer but there is no more in the movie than it is shown here so I don't know if they even recorded the whole thing or just the part they were using. it's from cockney rebel & steve harley and it's called (somebody called me) sebastian if you wanna listen to the whole tune. I always loved it.
