so i heard this constantly when i was a kid in my dads car, ALWAYS BLARING :) he unfortunately died and i hadn't heard it since then, until once i was in my friends car, on the way to a disco and it was on the radio .. never cried so hard in my life
It's good to have something to remember by and theres no shame in shedding a tear it's also a good example of a cover overshadowing the original without disrespecting it
@@SEBASTIV no i don't know him but he sounds great...just one thing Sebastian, when you're on the phone can you keep the pig impersonations down to a minimum? lol
@cardiff4ever346 Yeah, I just listened to Rods version, and you're right. The guy in the Stereophonics could sing in a Faces tribute band... he sounds so much like Rod.
Im listening to this and going right back to my childhood. Going to rhyl with my family when the place used to be fun and spending quality time with my family. Why do we have to grow up?
AWESOME!! AMAZING!!! I used to play the original by The Faces as a Deep Cut when I was on the air, now it's a HIT, and SO BEAUTIFUL! NO other band could have pulled this off! Keep up the GREAT work!
it's stripped you *of* not *off* ; most of the lyrics segue into the chorus. so what the singer is saying is "they stripped you of the handbags and the gladrags that your poor old grandad had to sweat to buy you"
Considering this is a lyric video, I think that accuracy is something that people would care about. No one cares about you trying to be edgy on the internet, but you don’t see us complaining.
What a voice. Makes me proud to be Scottish 🏴 Also a fellow Celtic fan 💚 Respect ✊🏼 Great song I’d listen to it with my Father (bless his soul) Still listening in 2023 for us both Dad ❤🏴
Makes you proud to be Scottish??? It was written by an Englishman (Mike D'Abo, former lead singer of Manfred Mann) and originally recorded by Chris Farlowe (another Englishman) and this particular version is by a Welsh Group. Just because Rod Stewart had a hit with it, doesn't make it Scottish!
@@wesleykerslake8203 And anyway how ridiculous to be "proud" to be of the same nation as one individual who happens to have a voice you like, as if that had anything to do with where they were born or what passport they held. Would you be "proud" if you discovered you had the same birthday or blood group? Great example of how nonsensical patriotism is! 🤣
@@Flipdrivel - Patriotism is nonsensical? There never has been a greater need for it! No wonder you're losing your country to a certain type of immigrants!! Scotland just escaped by the skin of its teeth after that lunatic's recent resignation.
I forgot about this song until recently on my local radio station they do a topical tune relating to a story in the news and you have to choose a song that fits it best and this was my choice one day and they choose it as the topical tune.
Wow! I've been after this song for fukin ages, and for the life of me, couldn't remember the words for this song, I could always remember the music but finally!
This song is about legacy. It's about recognising the sacrifice of precious generations and how we take it for granted or accept it as "normal"these days. If we don't defend it, it will be lost. Follow this with Viva La Vida and consider our nations legacy (UK). Time to take back the reigns, or loose the race to oblivion.... our choice.... your choice...
You are beautiful son i'm 58 have 2 boys and i hope they will have a heart like yours always. May life lead you to him who is perfection of love and goodness and a home in heaven at the end : Peace John 3:16
I like Rod Stewart's rendition best. This has a noticeably slower tempo. I heard it first on a K-Tel album of 70s Hits along with Aretha Franklin. Bread, and a slew of other artists of the era. To me, the music was one of the best things about the 70s.
@grahamives Well done that man! i have just turned 60 and remember Manfred Mann and Mike d'Abo to say nothing of Chris Farlowe who i remember listening to in those early days that produced such Brilliant singers and musicians.
@zombieeish Just so everyone knows, this was written by Mike d'Abo when he was lead singer with Manfred Mann but he never released it. Chris Farlowe was the first to release it in 1967, Rod Stewart recorded it in 1969, the Stereophonics didn't release it till 2001.
One of my favorite songs in the world by Mr . Rod Stewart . This phone into my kids heads that it took hard work and sweat to earn the things that they received . And more importantly anything to realize that once you think ur. In the. C l u b. -. ~~`√. Your. Out.
Heard this on the raido coming back to my house in a taxi from airport after missing my flight to Manchester to watch the United and Brentford by 2 mins I’ll come back here to see this comment in years to come of a reminder of the game that finish 3-0 to us up the reds
i love how steroephonics remind people of their dad! reminds me of mine too, every saturday when i got to see him i swear there was always a stereophonic song playing on the radio... i miss my dad

Nobody cares especially the Internet

There goes David Brent , I must remember to thank him .
Do you still keep in touch with Oggy?

simply as the man who put a smile on the face that all that he met
Genuine lol
This song was brought to you by a bunch of chilled out entertainers.
The Office was still an absolute classic tv series though!!!!
One of the greatest ballads of all time, with such great music accompaniment with the piano, horns, flute, oboe.....this version and Rod's, both.
This IS Rod.
@@castleanthrax1833 it’s the Stereophonics
@cardiff4ever346 Yeah, I just listened to Rods version, and you're right. The guy in the Stereophonics could sing in a Faces tribute band... he sounds so much like Rod.
This is the earliest song I remember from when I was a child. Absolute, underrated, classic.
Ooow sh.t. i'm 59 now and i still get the bumps.
im 13 and know this wtf ahah im not complaining and think their music is amazing
@@erikariley2855Ugh. I'd hate to be a teen nowadays. Boring, stagnant times.
Best WELSH band ever
Seagal Fan You might well be right. Super furry animals up there though. mixture of great english and welsh songs
Seagal Fan I disagree. I think it's The Alarm.
Manic street preachers?
+Seagal Fan Agreed!
@@theprettyrecklesshalestorm4259 why am I the first to mention Acrimony, Budgie, Desecration , Dub War, Skindred ?
This song always makes me cry :(
Im listening to this and going right back to my childhood. Going to rhyl with my family when the place used to be fun and spending quality time with my family. Why do we have to grow up?
This song has so much reality in it,, very, very touching song,, great voice, brilliant music, and excellent lyrics.
this song always makes me cry
I can relate mate:)
Same man
In November 1967, singer Chris Farlowe was the first to release a version of the song, produced by Mike d'Abo. Rod Stewart cover 1967
Mike D’ablo Wrote it
Music is the language of the universe. This one is right up there.
I’ve recently discovered this song and I love it 😍
I've been on a nostalgia kick of late. Just listened to Drift Away by Dobie Gray. Both great songs. 👍
what an amazing song, plus amazing sexy voice love that ruff husky voice as old as rod is to me he actually had that himself aswell

my dad showed me this ages ago and now i start to like it, love stereophonic&this song, ah!
A great song and great performance.
Brilliant song, brilliant version, love this version almost as much as the Rob Stewart one :D
the singer sounds a lot like Stewart, and even more, like Terry Reid.
love it makes me feel all warm inside like good things are gonna come in life
it's stripped you *of* not *off* ; most of the lyrics segue into the chorus. so what the singer is saying is "they stripped you of the handbags and the gladrags that your poor old grandad had to sweat to buy you"
No one cares

Hi would love to know what you think of my 17 year old grandsons cover of this ruclips.net/video/T7Emz268Dio/видео.html
Here from the Sol Bamba tribute video at Cardiff City Stadium ❤f*** cancer
Mike D'Abo wrote it in 1967, and produced the version that Chris Farlowe did. He then arranged the version that Rod Stewart covered in 1969.
The harmonies remind me of the theme to the program Cheers.

I can't believe it but this is better than Rod's original version!
Rod didn't do the original version.
@@theabraham8164 Thanks, I've never heard of Mike D'abo.... did he write it?
@@keithrpenny6484 He's the songwriter but he wrote for a guy called Chris Farlowe.
the original
version of this tune was recorded by Chris Farlow in 1966
It also seems that I’m old enough to be some off your dads and I’d like to think my kids have the same fond memories.
This song makes me wanna work at a paper company & put my coworker’s stapler in jelly before throwing it out of the window.
What a beautiful song 2024
