Neil Sedaka - Breaking Up Is Hard To Do (From "The Show Goes On" DVD)

[Piffer0123]

Listen I tell you what: "Neil plays piano so, like the see with the sand......"

[sheaprille11]

live music is the best..

[PARKLANEFARM]

If you like good music, clear lyrics, meaningful words and great piano playing, Neils your man.

[egyprincess6894]

the good old days...when people became famous for their talents. most of today's music is no more than auto-tuned crap *sigh*

[Piffer0123]

This one is the best of his Hits - thank you Neil - RS from germany.

[Cjmen14]

as long as the audience are enjoying it, he is happy and more enthusiastic!

[biggymcbigbig]

still on my list of go see . though im not sure about the happy part kh.though it is one of my karaoke songs lol

[KhmerBayon]

I love this song so much, it makes me feel so happy. Those haters who dislike this song, have no idea what good music is about..

[iw32]

15 fools find that to like this song is very hard to do!

[Melanie91101]

tollig :)

[N0l4nH]

Jerking off is fun to do

[gmddlb]

[jlyons8583]

How can I be mad!!!!!!! luv it

[toffekristoffe]

Love the hand movement at 0:27. Don't-Take-Your-Love-....

[chenpod123]

This dude still got it!!!

[reesypbcup]

I have no idea why there are 14 dislikes...anything this man has done is not only worthy of our like, but also our love! As far as Damian's version is concerned, it wouldn't exist without Neil's so get a clue! I love Damian's version too, btw, but Neil is the best showman I've ever seen and I've seen him in person, so I did sign that petition and I hope that if he hasn't yet been inducted, that he will be soon!

[nguyenvu97]

14 people never smile when they listen to music

[SamasBananas1]

I like Damian McGinty's version better. Along with his rendition of 'Happy Birthday Sweet Sixteen'

[coco222345]

i actually like this version better

[OwenParrish]

You can't listen to his music and not smile.......try it!

[paticakoos1]

sexy guy still

[wmoore2011]

I want Neil to know that Breaking up is very easy to do all you have to say is I don't see this lasting long term. That statement ended my 7 year marriage.

[nursetino]

oigo y oigo este video y nomas no me canzo,, que hermoso,, saludos...

[sonnyjim2001]

Neil IS gay

[upabittoolate]

This guy sucks. Aren't sedakas only supposed to come out every 7yrs?

[whirlyfan]

love it ! 

[janitha87]

wow this is why i want to build a time machine!

[pilosopongmac]

he sounds so cute...so adorable..

[mfhoyt45]

I think this is the most utterly charming performance I've ever seen in my life - and I've been in the music business for decades :-)

I salute you, Neil Sedaka.

[Clark200666]

Lol, I would love him to come to Philippines again.

[SOLTERILLO1]

remerber when...........

[Clark200666]

Lol, since I was 7 I've been liking his songs and I'm still 15. >.<

[TheColettemounts]

The best day of my life wqas when my mom and da split up.. no more violence so I thought she took him back like an idiot..just because he culd sing love songs

[misscourtz1237]

Does anyone know where I could get the sheet music from for this version online?

[houstontexan677]

i respect someone who can sing live. love it

[kangfesher]

Just incredibly sweet...he seems so happy.



[bannie]

I remember an album of his from back in the late 70's/80? It was "older" music, but I can't remember the name. I wish I still had it.

[ThePaperrosie]

Hes a lot older,but he can still sing

[atp1962]

Man is truly Awesome !! I know he loves his family, especially his Grand kids !

[JohnyDorian]

Fantastic!

He is just kamma kamma daun duby dub daun daun" !

[BubblesForever1995]

My daddy used to sing this song to me every night when I was little, and he's now teaching me how to play it on piano♥ love this song :D

[friendlytec]

[TheXxNatashaxx]

[HatsForEveryone]

Piano skills. He's got them.

[SuperKosby]

[stowe08]

[alxndr01]

One man, one piano, amazing amount of music ---- and he's not in the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame!!!???? What's wrong with those idiots?

[gibbdreamer]

@alxndr01 YOU ANSWERED THE QUSTION, THOSE JERKS ARE MORONS

[EmperorGeorgeVII]

I'm 16 and I love older music. Bassey, Elvis, Orbison and Sedaka is up there with the Super Ledgends.:)

[HandwhistlerBen]

Neil still has that fabulous voice! He should be inducted into the Hall of Fame.

[Ceredwyn13]

This man is a classic. God, I love him. So many of his songs have meant so much to me through the years...

[sharkey360]

Great song and great performer! Two thumbs up to Neil Sedaka!

[robotboiexciting]

love it

[Entertainmentwriter]

If you want to learn how to write songs that are profound and lyrically perfect to convey a message simply, listen to this, In My Life by The Beatles, Wouldn't It Be Nice by the Beach Boys, California Dreaming by the Mamas and Papas, and Galveston by Jimmy Webb. Everything you wil ever need to learn about songwriting can be found there.

[gibbdreamer]

@Entertainmentwriter Breaking Up Is Hard To Do by Niel Sedaka. The man is an awesome singe / songwriter. Also The Hungery Years also by Mr Sedaka. Not denying the talent of others just saying he has that amazeing gift also. The Hungery Years is on CD, it was an album by the name in the 1970s now on CD and sold on Amazon. Very amazeing songs you might want to listen, just sugestion only

[grin2k]

1st time hearing dis song and its very catchy!!

[1960jack]

one of pop musics top writers, great fun to listen to.

[HnLrocksdaworld]

[Titanic160321]

Yeah, great man, aye? I'm 16 and play his songs on the piano. I've loved his music ever since I was a young boy myself. I know, it's very odd, but what the heck?...Cheers...

[DMEAD123]

[Naposim1337]

Great voice in his age! Better than Mick from Rolling stones tbh :P

[showtuneful]

I saw him in concert, so talented but so vain and nauseating personality-wise.

[Mankind081]

He's completely the opposite.

[cseccsebeccse]

love you Viki

[1sexiigirl]

he always seems so happy when he sings!

his music always gives me a good feeeling inside =))

I love him!!!! Sorry guys, I can't miss.... (looks like Martin Brundle in 10 years time!) :-))))))))

[TABARD69]

great, as usual

[Entertainmentwriter]

The slow version is much better. Still, it remains one of the top 10 pop songs every written. Musically, it is perfect. Just brilliant.

[KCBeatlesrock]

OMG!!! i went to the celtic thunder concert last night and damian mcginty sang this song!!! he sung it sooo well!!!! he was wearing skinny jeans

[sigreento]

Awesome.

[Kevb2008]

He's The BEEESSSSTTTTT .....

[chris2o4her]

Wasn't he the one who sang "Laughter In the Rain"?

[24752114]

This guy is so COOL!! for his age, i mean he can make youngsters look like old farts.......my mom and dad enjoyed a lot....along with a couple of pegs of vodka........thanks again for posting.

[RememberMe1003]

[reddfox16]

so cheerful ! :)

[XcupidskillerX]

haha, it's such a cute catchy song, i love it so much. thank you for posting.

[kjetin99]

Agree ! Fantastic!

[jenny2208]

He looks so cute singing this song with the piano.

[siepaczos]

Absolutely awesome... He IS legend now, and deserved to be watched in the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame. Even age isn't a barrier for him. Great man, great musician.

[nonolardo]

Ojala pudieran subir el cover que se hizo en México con el grupo D.C.O. lleva por titulo "No Me Niegues (Breaking up Is Hard to Do)" con Patricia Manterola del disco "D.C.O."

[thebeastlacey]

That's a great rug! Almost hard to tell. Great music just the same!

[LiteraryJet]

Just a few artists can do a full concert with only a piano as accompaniment...

Great concert at the Royal Albert Hall - the DVD released is worth the buy!

Hope to see Neil again - we are waiting for an EUROPEAN TOUR !!!

People, don't forget to vote for Neil in the petition started by his fans! You find the link in the description of this video!

[Boguniunio]

This man is genius !!

[CrazyDiamond5321]

When was this recorded?

[eaglerocktv]

This was recorded on July 15th 2004, in the Royal Albert Hall

[Tuneweaver2008]

It was recorded in London at The Royal Albert Hall, April 7th 2006... :-)

Great solo concert - but I'd like to see Neil perform the European cities like Brussels, Amsterdam & Paris... He never did a full concert on the European continent, and that's a pity...

The DVD of this concert is just awesome!

[ZettaiBaka]

Anyone listened to the version of this song sung by "Cartoons"? That was better than this in my opinion. They were a group of six who sang the song without any instruments, instead using their voices for the background accompaniment. It's awesome... try to find it. You'll love it I guarantee.

[elvisapresley68]

Since I last posted, I have my just turned 4, and 7 year old girls singing this w/ me!!! hahaha... Just a fun song!!! God Bless Sedaka!

[hitman450]

he's still got the skills!

[LiteraryJet]

This song is his trademark.

And, what a wonderfull concert he did at the Royal Albert Hall in London.

Hope to see him there again very soon - this time with his band!...

People, don't forget to vote for him in the petition his fans started...

Look for the link in the description of this video!

[Tuneweaver2008]

JUST... GREAT !

[elvisapresley68]

Sedaka kickin' it!!! Simply Marvelous!!!
