- Rubettes - Top of the World
Another amazingly deep thinking track from the Sometime in Oldchurch album. The Rubettes were very diverse in those days. They tried it all and had no trouble in re-inventing themselves. Nice words to this song and correct me if I am wrong but Tony is singing and he has such a good voice and full of meaning. It takes you right into the heart of it and carries you along into the story of this poor boy. The ending piece is a soundbite from 'White Heat" which starred James Cagney and I think it is very appropriate as it always brings this film to mind when I listen to it. Hope you like it.

Georgi, thank you so very much for your comment. I do appreciate it. I try to put as much expression in the videos as I can xx
I think that is Paul Da vinci singing. Very nice voice and powerful but if have to choose between Paul and Tony, I totally prefer Tony Thorpe. Thank you for sharing.
wow...just ...wow
So the lead singer was Tony Thorpe in this song ?
Yes he was
J ai cet album vinyle avec ce titre,encore aujourd'hui, je regrette qu ils n aient pas continuer avec ce style de musique, leurs changement radicale n est pas bien passé A l epoque, c est dommage, avec sign of the times ca reste mes préféré
So sad I don't understand it , can you say it in Englisch ?
Cet Album est une merveille. Country à fond. Je ne m'en lasse pas depuis 1979. Je l'écoute en boucle depuis l'époque!!!
Sometime in a old church est un album sublime (le meilleur ?) Mais personne ne connait The Rubettes sous cet angle, c'est dommage. Merci pour le clip. Cette chanson prend aux tripes
@@louwisa1962 I have this vinyl album with this title,even today i regret that they Didn’t continue with this style of music. Their radical didn’t happen at the time.it’s shame, with Sign of the Times,it’s still my favorite.
@@francoaddonisio8368 I agree with you, the seventies were the best, but when Tony had to go away the music sure wasn't getting better

Gebaseerd op de film White Heat
You were born in a room in a house in a block
In a street in a town somewhere
Just another damn kid today with no tomorrow
And your mother would work every hour God sent
And you'd know the way she'd feel
So you learned to beg and steal but never borrow
A kid needs his old man and you needed yours
But your old man was not around
He was passing his time away doing time
So you and your ma had to make it alone
And while she would work all day
You tried to find a way to make a dime
And with the cap in your hand
You were known down the street
As "Cody the crazy kid out on his beat"
And it's a long road to the top of the world
Cody the kid with the old man inside
And he'll go the same way, I'll bet my hide
And it's a long road to the top of the world
When you heard from your ma that your old man had died
In the room with the quilted walls
You seemed to hear the call and see the sign
And at seventeen years you'd the piece in your hand
And your fate and your future too
Now it was ma and you, the grand design
And you killed and you robbed on your way to the top
Never stopping to turn around
You never heard the sound of your old man crying
The top of the world it was yours for the grabs
And the end justified the means
Till the sound of the old sirens would drown your dying
And with the piece in your hand you're the king of the night
But somebody told me and somebody's right
That it's a long road to the top of the world
Cody the kid with his sights set too high
And he'll never stop until he reaches the sky
And it's a long road to the top of the world
