when he sings...it feels so light...so happy...just free...unlike the songs of today,..mostly are noise and non-sensible lyrics...and "disposable" too... his are classics...
I can't believe how 4 ppl could say that they don't like this video. He is amazing. I am only 13 and I loooove him music. (also the other oldies music-elvis presley,aretha franklin,etta james,james brown) old music is much better that this crap today.. i can't say taht i don't listen to the new music, but oldies are the best. Anybody else from Croatia?? :D
Is that the piano Brian Wilson used to play 'God Only Knows' circa 1990 at an awards show (video should still be somewhere on Youtube), by any chance?
Yeah! Love the sassy way he sings it too. 1975 was a very good year indeed for Neil. "Laughter in the Rain" and "Bad Blood" hit number one with his versions, and this song was the number one song of the year.
A contribution such as Neil Sedaka's, spanning 50+ years of singing and songwriting (and spawning hits for so many artists!) should be recognized. Neil's writing clearly had an influence on the development and direction of pop/rock music over several decades.
He wrote this one too!? Oh my sweet mother of Kahili, he is brilliant! I just found out who he was, and it turns out he's written four of my favourite songs!
Fantastic... it reminds me of the wonderful days spent with my family in Ironbridge at my brother's wedding. It was on an old LP: the tra-la-la days are over. Thanks so much for sharing.
Listen I tell you what: hi is playing with the Piano like the see with the sand.......great genius!
