Cockney Rebel Sebastian

[Elzapaint]

My brother is named after this song.

[phunse1]

Thank you

[yili1911]

They don't make songs like this anymore. The music industry is dying.

[Enerjee]

@yili1911 - the music industry IS dead because it stifles creativity in this modern age where instant hit material is chased more than ever.

[2656paul]

cockney rebel at there best thanks for posting

[oknarbtal]

Haven't heard this one in eons. Love this wicked and totally indecipherable lyrics. There was an epic live version from '75 on youtube, but I can't find it anywhere now.

[nijmegnaar]

one word ..... magic !!

[RomeoSierrah]

Fantastic song! I remember seeing Steve and CR performing this at the Hammersmith Odeon back in 1975/6? The atmosphere was incredible, this song takes me way back.....

[spyhero2]

my parents named me to this song :)

[MrSirDel]

@toche7777 You are an ignorant, insensitive dolt who obviously knows absolutely nothing about music...Go and play with your Lego

[Standrdrog]

@spyhero2 that makes 2 of us :)

[LiiSaaD]

goosebumps all over my body!

One word: MAGIC!

[iHippogriff]

I'm 13 years old and listening to this...is that weird?

[WhatNecCorp]

@iHippogriff Nope, it just means you're a 13 year old with a good taste for music ;)

I'm 19 by the way.

[lizardkingfan]

@iHippogriff Nothing wrong with listening to good music, but saying this on the internet because you want Compliments IS

[SherlockHolmes4360]

[thonaw]

Brings me back to lovely memories...

[JusticeDim]

Oh My God!!! what the hell do i comment?? I bow!!

[aardvarkmcgillicuddy]

@JusticeDim ah, well, you cant. thats the thing.... all you have to know is that it moves you deeply... in my darkest hours i always play this...and cavaliers............

[brokenscimitar]

This song was absolutely perfect for its time, a dead set bullseye hit. The lyrics, the tune, the symphonic and choral background are all of that era. Thanks for the great memories.

[notmarkatall]

Great stuff..

[Hellcore999]

I wish this song never ended.. amazing song.. just mindblowing

see my mind trough kaleidoscope

[contelefurca]

my son : sebastian, super!!!!!!

[onlylexus]

all i can say is Wow! and Wow again, For Gloria my sister.

[zninbgky]

Mozart on heroin.Beautiful

[Grongoling]

@zninbgky Love that paritcular analysis! Kudos!

[RussinTirnaNog]

Oh my God, that was good, I'd love to swear out loud and say F*** that was good. The additional choral piece just give it an edge that makes this song last. This is one track I don't think I will get tired listening too.

[2Magma1]

Please, please if possible the fantastic Live Alvum 'Face to Face'.

upload...upload...upload!!!!

[Soupercally]

Simply one of the best and most haunting records of all time,

[oknarbtal]

where is the live performance of this from 1975??

please don't tell me it's been removed

[lostandfoundvideo]

here you'll find a very different and beautiful version of this song

[BettyHill]

I understood this at 16, then i lost it when i grew up. We went to see him a couple of years ago, and were transported back 30 years, I understood it again, was laid waste, and i have now got this song back. Just don't ask me to explain it to anyone else!

[spasmodiccaress]

Great, great song. Loved this, so long ago.... be Spasmodic!

[Walrus702]

Such a shame the original Keyboard player was on the fated plane over Lockerbie,put a big dent in their touring and recording antics for a while.

[SCC1962]

@Walrus702 ...I was sure it was Paul Jeffreys the bassist who was killed over Lockerbie, not the keyboard player

[Zanekip]

Please, can somebody send me a  text

[fazermanbill]

I JUST LOVE THIS TRACK! IT'S BRILL ONE OF HIS BEST.

[megooltjes]

[rubinoos1]

How well known is Cockney Rebel in the U.S.? I'm wondering if they have any other American fans besides myself.

[TheThroney]

@rubinoos1 I have never heard of them until about a year or 2 ago and it was by accident. Im from Canada.. dont think theyre well known here at all.

[geligniteandlilies]

@rubinoos1 Hey Rubinoos1 Fellow American Fan here! Just wanted to give you a shout out! How did you discover the band?

[rubinoos1]

@geligniteandlilies The band was mentioned in an episode of Days Like These, which is a British remake of That '760s Show. Anglogirl1 has uploaded some episodes.

[lyndababy]

Without doubt still the best version ever

[UNBOXINGCAR]

[erikknuffelbeer]

[NutmegPunkle]

totally awesome song from a most underated band , one of my faves from that era , the album it came from is a classic x

[WalterBeckett]

bought this record on a trip with my girlfriend to belgium, in germany the record wasn't available at this time (nobody knew them).

at the time in the record-shop we got a ticket for wrong parking...

[jymitch2610]

Great live performer even now he still has it !

[MrStratcaster]

Danke Elfi

[oldlucas111]

it is only the best

[liradikhan]

Un capolavoro, altroche' il rifacimento degli absolute, una pessima storpiatura!!!

[Superciuk68]

The Absolute's version is a poor falsification. Beware of imtiations!

[Touch0fDutch]

wonderful song, great memories and it never gets boring..

[noreligion365]

No comment, Hear it and .... and what? I dont know.

[ludo281160]

What a dialect of london 1973 and English thought they thought Classical music made, but I like it

[peteblueeyesfromBI]

i know all the die hard cockney rebel fans will hate me for that, but i'd wish there was a proper recording of jonathan rhys-meyers version from velver goldmine

[fillig0n]
