Roy Harper - Goodbye

[oldman91950]

magic a tour of emotion



[Oliverware21]

im glad i went to see him with my young son who has since taken up the guitar, at the concert he explained what the song another day was all about this was one of my favourite songs

[wolderfly]

gyönyörű. beautiful. 

[1coachking1]

Love it.

[finkployd4658]

Hats off to roy harper

[MrArdvarkz]

It's always the living who fear the idea of death...

[johnnyriggsisdead]

I've played this for tons of friends, girlfriends, etc. I always explain him with the Led Zep connection, and then say it kinda sounds like Ian Anderson listened to the saddest Nick Drake and Bill Fay songs and wrote this in a suicidal mood. Thanks for posting it. One of his best.

[puddypuss]

takes me back to these times, off the subject, Id like to say how annoying the new recommended for you imposes itself across the bottom of the screen of this video is. I know they read these comments, so lets hope they discontinue it.

[xxxBlueBeexxx]

i want the lyrics to this...pleaseeeee.....

[growsmadder]

thankyou x peace xx

[leolevesque]

hats off to roy harper

[Talkinghorses]

Saw Roy several times at Sheffield Uni. Happy days...

[Smeggy1974]

still lovin ya Roy

[ticklesitter]

passer, thx for posting this, I love this song so much. But, it's driving me crazy not knowing who these people are. Please tell the story in the info section. I think if you were honoring these people it would be a great tribute to clue all the viewers into "who these people are"

[passer59]

OK, done.

[ticklesitter]

thanks passer. this just proves, kind people will always congregate. That's what the powers that be don't want us all to figure out, why would there ever be terrorism if we were kind and empathetic. So i say we all be consciously kind to one another, and lower the vale of unreason on this planet. ! namastai

[bitofacunt]

Hey guys...this is a beautiful song, with special memories for me (and for many other people) why do you have to be so small-minded & racist?!...Chris.x

[logosew]

Why do people (probably American) want to cash in on good music?

[Debsworlddotcom]

You obviously don't understand his music you stupid Brit.

[Smeggy1974]

You obviously dont realise that Our roy is in fact a brit.

Dumb Yank!

[Debsworlddotcom]

Funny. You are a Brit and you still don't understand his music even though he is a Brit, moron!!

[Emeraldz1992]

don't be racist, ya cunt

[Emeraldz1992]

Well actually I was replying to an ignorant comment, so my tone can be excused.

Roy is one of my favourite writers and I shall continue to enjoy his poetic beauty despite your arrogant statement. Much Love.

[bobgreen623]

Apologies Em for the arrogant comment, now removed. Don't mean to upset anyone or add to the unpleasantness in the world, just sometimes have a kneejerk reaction to what I see as unnecessary nastiness on Youtube, often consisting of name-calling rather then reasoned discussion. Bad day at the office and that, y'know. anyway, won't happen again, keep digging Roy and the other kind people out there. Love and dreams....

[Emeraldz1992]

I understand, thankyou for taking the time.

Roy really is something isn't he?

:-)

much love to you and yours

[dekz1000]

played Roy......

[brentwurst]

I can only imagine that these people are all dead, and it only adds to the melancholy of the song.

[bonzelite]

who the hell are all of these people

[BrianofSI]

Beautiful song. Roy Harper at his best.

Just wondering. Who are the people in the video?, and why are you saying 'Goodbye' to them?

[reaperon]

[1coachking1]

Just surfing and come across this. Roy, this brings back some thoughts. Yeas you were / are bloody damn good.

[ROCKYROSIE2]

Beautiful song from an unsung British hero. God bless Roy

[gerthie]

what lp is this from

[passer59]

From "Flat, Baroque and Berserk", originally released in 1970.

I've updated the header.

[AdiBear88]

my memory might be going,but I think its from the HQ LP.

[MarkGreenwood60]

Flat & Baroque & Berserk

[squonkness]

The album HQ was entitled "When An Old Cricketer Leaves The Crease" in the USA.

1975

[LordInksworth]

I used to play this one when I played in pubs. Also Judas Iscariot. Always meant to cover Me and My Woman, but never had the nerve.

Good old Roy - that voice, angelic.

[manysons]

Havn't heard this one forever! LOVE that lp. Thanks for posting.

[WillShakespeare2007]

I love Roy Harper and this is what brought me here. Who are these people please?

[jonno52]

Beautiful. Thanks for posting.
