I like the song! Never heard of it and never heard of Barclay James Harvest, but that is why I am often on Youtube; to look for new genres of music and new artists.

I really like the simplicity of the song, but despite that it remains a very inspiring song. I dig the synthesizer :P

BJH. are just aoo dammed relaxed and so easy to mellow in with. this song is so upbeat yet just i dunno godly. same with hymn and child of the universe. thumbs down if u disagree but thats your opinion. for a band that involve god and upbeat tunes like this, they too will soon be soaring like gods. BJH forever

Exactly! And i can hear it in the voice off the singer and the synthetizer has not the same sound as in the original version in Berlin! :)

@kiki08647 Un des meilleurs groupe POP des années 70.

@hendrixkaf

That's what I was thinking. I remember the video being a bit more live than this.

For my 18th birthday my sister got me tickets to see BJH at Edinburgh...nearly 30 years later she hasn't got me a present to come any where near that!!!

This takes me back to great times in the early 1980's. Classic & different when most of my friends were into pop and dare I say ELO. Just look at what they were missing. I'm off to see Colin Browne (keyboard) at Newcastle Jazz & Blues, Staffs. Life is for living.

That's not the famous concert in Berlin "A concert for the people"...
