Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel - Make me smile 1975

Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel - Make me smile 1975

"You've done it all
You've broken every thing
And pulled the rebel to the floor
You've spoilt the game
No matter what you say
For only metal, what a bore

Blue eyes, blue eyes
How can you tell so many lies?

Come up and see me, make me smile
I'll do what you want, running wild

There's nothing left
Is all gone and run away
Maybe you'll tarry for a while
It's just a test
It's a game for us to play
Win or lose, it's hard to smile

Resist, resist
It's from yourself you'll have to hide

Come up and see me to make me smile
I'll do what you want, running wild

Come up and see me to make me smile
I'll do what you want, running wild

Come up and see me, make me smile
I'll do what you want, just running wild

Know what I love about these guys? Every live video of them on Youtube, they always seem to be having a laugh and larking around but still sound outstanding. Ahhh theyre just incredible. Could never get bored of listening to his voice (:

I only first heard this song on Full Monty this year and been trying to find who sang it.I thought Paul Kelly sang it (what a dick).Man this is 70's stuff, where the hell have I been.Steve is totally in his element singing this song . Its written for his voice !

Love these guys and going to see them at the 70's weekend at Butlins soon. Oh how the times have changed seen them at various venues over the years but this will be a first at Butlins. Bring it on!!!

@travellingchristophe Yeah, but this is on Musik Laden, a German show renowned for actually being live. On TOTP we wouldn't have heard anything, as everything would be unplugged. I just think he got the start wrong, and that's why they're laughing. Mint performance though! What a band!

[FutureLegendDiva]

The drummer looks like Christian Bale.

@camel091 they were upbeating it with impros for their own kicks,toying with their child with gusto

Like JRebG said, I love how they always look like they are having fun with it. This band has some of the warmest smiles in rock. George and Steve look positively giddy! Hah!

Steve has the best faces. 2:46!

OMG!! I've been looking for this song for years without knowing who made it. Amazing party song!
