50 times!! I saw him 3 times in the 70's and they were awesome. The records are just different from most on the market. Sebastion still brings tears to my eyes but the original had far more atmosphere than some ofhis live versions.

[SpideyCat1]

Couldn't agree more Bassmanj....saw him do his accoustic set on Wednesday night....3rd time I'd seen him live, and he is as good as ever. And (Love) Compared with you is just BEAUTIFUL!

[allyplumb]

Can't believe how this never got in the top 40 in the uk.Should have been Steve's second number one single.

[saracarolinehancock]

@Bassmanbj are you on first name terms with him now? 50 times! Agree about Compared to You.

[geligniteandlilies]

Okay, I love the song, it's been one of my ride-to-work jams for weeks now, but I have to go and be "that guy." (In this case "that girl.") Since I was negative 3 years old when this was filmed, I am so going to use any access to a time machine to go back in time and hit that. Oh his long lanky form and body language! :)

[JustLoveForMe]

@geligniteandlilies Glad I'm not the only one, but I must say I'm even younger... I was born a whopping 15 years after this was recorded! :(

[geligniteandlilies]

@JustLoveForMe That just means we are awesome and have very mature tastes!

[JustLoveForMe]

@geligniteandlilies Haha yes, we do ;D what a lovely looking man... ^_^

Steve is a Primadonna :)) das Beste aus der Zeit und bis heute.

[Heidik100]

Loved this when it was released - still love it now - Steve - what a talent!!!

[Greenthigh]

Great album too, but rarther ruined at times by overuse of vocooder.

[Greenthigh]

Agree. "Compared to You" is outstanding.

[assemblyday]

Steve --- NICE!!

[1codger]

uncanny mate am busy lookin for the very same song me favourite

[twochaudio]

was he before ian hunter

[harfarhs]

No because Mott the Hoople were around for years before they had their first hit in 1972.. Harley only began gigging in 1971 or 1972, I gather..

[JRebG]

:D Awesome awesome awesome!! Love the way he teases the guy with the curly hair with the microphone :L Lol Awh bless him. He looks like he was dying to sing =]

[nsherress]

the guy with the curly hair is Jim Cregan who thoughit would be far more lucrative to and play for Rod Stewart

[ShelleyanBysshette]

To misssoftglitterkid ... HOW could I have missed that?!? LOL! I may have to put that couple of seconds on a repeat loop now! :)))

[jimilove5]

thanks, cheers, jimi

[songoftherushes]

i never realised how much the boomtown rats owe to this guy!!!!

[GLASGOWHOBO]

Steve Harley is without question,a GENIUS

[misssoftglitterkid]

at 1:25 does Steve flip us off?

[misssoftglitterkid]

i love the faces Steve makes:) Cockney rebel kicks butt

[bobdenero]

Great song, have the original on vinyl somewhere - Steve Harley does a spot on Radio 5 as racing pundit!

[MuzzikLvr]

Oh man this brings back such great memories of my misspent youth.

[kabbidge]

As a massive fan of Steves many thanx for this video.For a great night out see Harley on tour this summer,you will not be disappointed.

[IURF2007]

Steve Harley....no seu melhor....

[rixta50]

how can you NOT appreciate the joy in his songs and that voice -unique- I never really saw him as GLAM more of a influenced by Bowie's "Honky dory" sound

which was really influenced by another MB RiX

[harfarhs]

There's joy in his music but also sadness, especially in this song..

[Dominicvr]

in my view a complete genius great song writer, not many geniuses about but steve along with marc bolan, shane mcgowan are a couple who can compete with the big names.

[armalyte]

steve was a cocky sod in his day - so ive read and been told- BUT he made a handful of songs that are excelsis. This is one of them.

Magic!

[degouteur]

Delicieux ! I love those guys. Such a nice music, so orriginal ad so good sense. Brilliant !

[knus1959]

Hi. :-) Do you mean that he still do concerts?? Where? Do he have a homesite? I was crazy of Steve Harley and Cockey Rebel, when I was younger. I thought he had stopped long time ago!!! ;-)

[stoneybiker10]

he was a graet artist for his time

[Elektrapunk]

What a star! So under rated.
