Anyone still listening to this classic in 2024 ❤
Sure, just came by in my history playlist. This performance was smooth AF! 👌
I am 🎉🎉
Ich denke alle oder
Yeah, 50 years ago this week this wonderful song was in the top 10 📆
George lives in Aruba now with his wife and does little bar shows here and there. My wife and I ran into him at a club on our last trip there and had the best time together. He's a cool dude and lots of fun. We got smashed together that night! lol. Great guy and great song
This performance is absolute gold. Everyone is totally on point, and everyone is having a grand time. Lovely!
this is why old school music and performers will always outlast the music and performers we have today end sheeran must have learned a few trick of the trades from the soul singer George you can see everyone smiling not a care in the world and crowd participation that's how to entertain and lastly for a guy his age what a voice god bless you in my opinion the best performance maybe of all time on jools show even he was in awe
Martyn Beeharry “ I’m totally with you agree with all you said about this awesome song ✌️⭐️ “
I agree
I totally agree with u. The artistes of this generation have sooo lost their sense of reality. My best song ever
Back then they truly were showmen.
The Last of "THE MEN"...OF SOUL FUNK!!!
What a great performer!
a legend of the 70’s, what a privilege it was to be a teenager in those times ❤️
Who's still watching in October 2021? George is a class act!!
Still loving this song..
Amazing voice - looks fantastic too! 🙏🏻
I love me some george mccrae he still has it going on he is hamsome
Música excelente, dançante, em qualquer tempo.
musica que ficou eterna parabens
Extraordinary!!
*Que bonito que haya cautivado a la audiencia y les haya contagiado para que se pusieran de pie y cantaran. Eso solo los grandes artistas lo logran.*
Talent is God given,
I was11years old when this song came out
Os arranjos dos metais shoooowwww
Happy 78th Birthday, Sir (19 October 2022).
Wish I could see him in person
It was so wonderful when music wasn't black or white! Music was music!
el dia de mi entierro quiero q me pongan esta cancion
Even better than in record's version
Can,t buy this ❤
All of these today shitty singers can just take a bow to this.
Delighted to say the talented George is still with us - he turned 79 in October....."If it wasn't for you, there would be no me!" What a beautifully humble phrase!
Ascutado bem
So he's your daddy 🤣
Wow, his voice is still just as pristine. Love this song…😌
Alanpatrych mas quê charme tanto ele como você meu gato é muito talento na vós nas músicas 🎶 🎶 🎶 é só sucesso...éu não sabia quê fosse dele a cantar estás música 🎶 🎶 🎶 éu adorei então quê tal um brinde meu amigo..então quê Deus te abençoe sempre desta sua nova amiga Estrela da Conceição beijos👄💋👄🎵💕🎶🎶💘🎼🎼👍👋👋👋
Never heard anyone sound so good in their 70’s, he hit them high notes as well as he did when he was in his 20’s
Very true dear
@@LulekaSakwer de
I’d add Little Richard to the list
One of the best live performances! I usually prefer the original recording but this is excellent. Glad to see he still has it!
George certainly can sing
.Sem igual !
BIG FACTS!
I totally agree with you 👍🏻
That’s the beauty of real musicians, they enhance not hide…
The voice is still on point over 40 years later
That's out of it!🔥
And the rest
Great. Meories 70 's 80 's thanks george
Real music, real instruments, real talent. Awww the good ole days.
This guy defies reality. I've lost about a third of what I had over the years singing in the clubs. George is as good or better than 50 years ago. A monster.
Dont sell yourself short , he wasnt doing 4hr gigs 3 times a week like us
It's A.I are you blind
@@petermacleod2402 The hell are you talking about?!
@@petermacleod2402: Don't start!! 🙄🤨
@@petermacleod2402E você acha mesmo que um cantor dessa magnitude precisa de IA??
His voice is so powerful it hasn't even aged since the track was layed down in 1974!!!
Agreed. I hadn't seen this before, and was expecting age to have taken its toll, as it has (understandably) on many singers from that era, and later. Plus he's singing live - there's often a big difference between a track that's come out of the recording studio and a live version of it. So what he does here is fantastic. And well done Jools for bringing it to us.
I remember i was in barcelona spain when i heard him on the juke box great musical soul george mc crae god bless
@@matth1j When the person lives a clean life and keeps his voice in condition, then vocal longevity is realized. Also the falsetto style in which he sings is key in maintaining the range and quality of his great natural tenor voice. Check it Out! Ciao!!!
You never realize how much charisma, and stage presence, many veteran singers from classic recordings had until you actually see them perform live. Always impressive. Great vocals, and great performance. Check it Out! Ciao!!!
@@matth1j lñlloooolllolllllllllllllijjgggggggggggggggggggggtcff
All these years later.....and he can still sing it in the original key.
I'm impressed all over the place.
And he looks like he's having a great time, too!
Good for him!!!
Real Music. If there world is still here in 500 years time, they'll still be playing this song.
this is old school showing what its all about, rock on George.
Awesome song, love it.
Continua linda essa música como sempre!🤩😘😘😍😍
*@Adian Newman* D*** straight. No one does it like original performers of 70s Soul. Esp George & Gwen McCrae. No tellin' how mant times Ive heard _Let Me Be Your Rockin' Chair,_ but I never knew that was her! ! And shes had a terrific career in Soul music too, all on her own 🤗
WOW!!! simply WOW!!! 🌞
Thanks George
Holy shit. I'm 72 and George gotta be my age. He's from Tampa Florida . Saw him in clubs summer of 1974. Who woulda thunk he'd be doing this 45 years later. This actually gave me goose bumps..wow.
He's 76. He was born October 1944
The guy said, "George gotta be his age." I was referring to now, like he was. Not 2018. I don't think he was either. Talking about Nick, that is.
Jajajajajja share your number "sugar daddy"
Sounds like yesterday day.
He still has the voice - Tom Jones and Smokey Robinson in same category
A performer who is proud of pleasing his audience. Spectacular!!!!
‘Without you there would be no me’
RESPECT for your audience.....George your AWESOME.
Thanks very much
You know if you're on the Jules Holland Show, you're a legend! What a great voice even 50 years on from the original hit. This song is a classic, classics never fade! His voice is still so good! Amazing 👏 🙏 ❤❤❤
Brilliant classic wow😎😎😎
This was my grandma's favorite song. She had a really difficult life (unfortunately, her alcoholism and mental illness brought quite a lot of hardship during my mother's childhood), but as a grandmother, she was the most wonderful human alive- even with her problems. Her birthday was Valentine's Day. She passed away almost 4 years ago. For so long this song was unlistenable. It was masochistic to listen to. But now I feel nothing but joy from it. Thank you George, for making an old woman happy, and for making me see that we shouldn't concentrate on death and sadness. Life's a garden, dig it.
This song's for you, Patty.
Such a beautiful comment, thank you for sharing

Esse canto ainda é vivo sim ou não fala pra mim em português
Sharing is what it's all about...to survive yourself.
Beautiful sentiment. Those in our life who were troubled could still bring us great joy...this is a testament to them.
His voice suit and style is like fine wine never ages
OH HELL YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

absolutely incredible !!! ... beyond brilliant, eternal & therapeutic !!!
@@brucewayne3602 I keep coming back to this song
It's great how he's interacting with his audience.
Was he singing Rock Me Baby to Jose Feliciano at 3:42?
Oh my god, how good is that, a classic and what a voice he has. Loved what Jules Holland and the band did with this.
Human beings are rather wonderful when we try.
Wooow! He still has an amazing voice. 🍻🍻
Say girly now in wrinkles
wooooow
Linda voz!
I loved this song in the 70 he has still got it that voice
This is great. Sent me to bed with a smile on my face.
Hmmmm....well ok then!!
Nick Dowsett i f
cute
Hope you didn't go to bed alone.😉
Damm still hits those high notes damm that’s impressive
He still sounds great after all theses years.
Yes he does!
Sounds Same some 1974... 45. Years ago wow
Yes he does and even more sexy sensual handsome looking, just being honest.
Exatamente!
Still got that ahhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaa I know his shit is still on point
This brought me to tears when he gave the song to us. Such a talented artist and beautiful soul.
Did you know that Harry Wayne Casey, of KC and the Sunshine Band, wrote this song for George?! Harry mentions it in an interview.
I listened to George Mc Rae singing this song 44 years ago on the radio and he continues with the same timbre of voice. Amazing!
Me too....
I've probably watched this video about 44 times now. Just like Mr McCrae, this doesn't get old!
I have been dancing to his song since a child, it warms my heart!!
REALLY... WONDERFUL..
Agree, he´s amazing
Great memories of 1974...disco nights & packed dance floors.
711honved yeah the hot steamy sexy sexy seventies ❣️🙏❣️🙏😂😂😂
The epitome of absolute joy! An absolute classic that can't fail to make you want to dance
Linzi Rainbow my thoughts exactly bloody amazing performance
Yvonne Anderson MK para a
The performance made me happy!!! This was the best I've seen George and Jools Holland & His Rhythm & Blues Orchestra tied it together.
Clap fast clap foyuman
I'm 58, my wife rocked my world 41 years ago when I was 17, we sang an impromptu song called Islands in the streams together never met before, and she is still rocking my world today.
Hahaha 😂
Caramba !!! Que saudades dessa epoca que existiam artistas de verdade como Georje Maccrae com suas cançoes maravilhosas !!!
É verdade , agente era feliz e não sabia .😢
Como sempre tem um brasileiro fazendo presepada então digo: Compadre Washington mandou muito bem 😂😂😂
Dude still looks and sounds good after all these years
Legend. All these new gen singers aren't even 1% of these classic artists.
I. Agree the younger generation music is 0
Beautifus j aim
😉💚❤
Definitely they try with all their might but still wont get close to legends like George,could listen to this song non stop every single day
I was delighted to be in the audience that night the show was recorded
For me, George stole the show that night!
Prove it
@@fontybits pppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp
@@fontybits e sempre e
So lucky man
Olha o swing do cara ,a elegância, e o melhor de tudo ,a voz !
Essa geração é pra ser reverenciada mesmo!
Só tem foda !
Você escuta os "artistas" de hoje ,da vontade de chorar de vergonha!
O cara canta muito.
Great song to dance to, and one of my all time favorites. Good to hear George still hitting them high notes! Still loving it!💖💖💖
How are you doing today my name is Eric Moore
Crazy to see that his performance and the emotion in put in it at his age is way better than what we can see from most so-called "modern" singers 🤗
George mandou bem demais, coroa ainda possui uma bela voz.
Muito bommmmm
Voz poderosa ,canta muito!
44 years on (at the time) and both George and the song sound as good as ever.
Good on him!
This is what you call money’s worth
Defo
Música memorável e artista extraordinário!
👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋
given the high pitches in this popular song, i was expecting a croaked, faded and jaded voice. the guy is lucky and gifted, true
Uau!!! Perfeito
Unbeliveble 😊The swing is the same!
not from this guy
Dig it. Dig it. Dig it.
@@Tony-uq4ig nothin too it
1974 - ist das lang her - mein erstes Schuljahr - und der Song ist heute immer noch ein Hammer und absolut Zeitlos - DANKE George
Cheers George
He's got the best stage presence, I love it
Probably the best performance on the night
I couldn't agree more.
The only good performance of the night. Shockingly bad this year.
Totally correct there
Master Deepak
Absolutamente
great funky version of 2018, George is 75 years old and is still rocking. Who is listening in 2020?

"Who is listening"? What kind of question is that??
To George MacRea...Rock your baby? I'll be listening when I'm dead!
I am a Baby Boomer headed to my sunset, born in the fifties. I don’t diss modern music like hiphop like some my age but still I have arrived to the conclusion without any conceit , sincerely, my generation had the best music . This is the proof !
He's an amazing singer.
Absolutely loved this...definitely the highlight of a great show...❤️❤️❤️❤️
Quer músicas excelentes ,tem que recorrer anos 60 70 80 max 90 ,quem tbm concorda
Verdade são as melhores porque as de hoje não são boas mesmo
Concordo plenamente aff
Mas existem boas musicas nas ultimas duas décadas, o problema é que só tem mídia pro que não presta.
Eu concordo plenamente, tanto que estou ouvindo agora em2020, música e arte e uma boa arte fica pra sempre!!!
Mais de quarenta anos, mas da hora! Música boa não envelhece, é sucesso sempre.
A qualidade da banda é fantástica!!!👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
We need to back in time , not only because the new music suck but also to bring our country back to what it used to, miss my old USA 🇺🇸 and the freedom of the 70s and 80s .
How are you doing today my name is Eric
HI Ralph, It’s not just about bringing your old USA back but the world. Life was not without trouble but was definitely happier for this soulful music, Growing up in the 70s was FUN!
@@oj136 okay cool
@@oj136 so where are you from
@@ericmoore5679 originally from the Uk but now Australia.
Amazing thing was in 1974 no-one took him seriously with his one solitary hit but look at him now.. a class act... Well done George
Awesom🤩
What are you talking about?? George´s music career is much more than one hit wonder - check www.discogs.com/artist/87814-George-McCrae
This other song, for example ruclips.net/video/kBWS3BJSNtQ/видео.html
KC and the sunshine band wrote this song, and it was probably why he only had this one hit, because he was not a song writer. He is a hell of a singer though.
@@icontrolmyownguns2096 😯😉👏
What a wonderfull man!! And the voice got it,after all these years!
What a complete showman! I love how he started off just singing, and then got everybody involved halfway through! And even Jools is looking at him in admiration! Utterly brilliant!
Musicas de épocas não podem ser esquecidas são lindas demais, dou graças a Deus, eu ser dessa época.
😊❤
The audience started out like zombies and ended up like dancing queens by the end. Amazing.
brilliant observation
Note to UK...
Ż
HE STILL GOT IT!
Wow, wow, George mcCrae still sounds perfect, a pure classy performance, absolutely brilliant.
George McCrae canta muito essa música anos 70 e 80 muito boas👍👍👍👍🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Haven't heard this song for about 20yrs, brings back great clubbing memories.
What a Classic Talent !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He also makes Boss Boil in the bag Kippers,,,,, WOW!!!!!!!!!
Damn.. He seems genuine and happy, grateful that people loved and still love this song, still has that smooth and soft bedroom voice, nails the vocals and he is obviously not tired of performing this song.
26 May 2019 Still loving this song !!!!! 😛🙌❤️😘
How are you doing today my name is Eric Moore
Still at his best after all these years
conrodmatrix precioso
qué gran espectáculo!!!! tengo 24 años y lo disfruto a flor de piel
Wow! He's still got it - the man who brought disco to the world. Terrific!
worked with this legend way back in the 80's when he sold out three nights on the bounce at the club I was dj at .still sounds great to this day .
graham fenton your so lucky to have worked with this brilliant artist I'm sure you will never forget such a awesome artist wow lucky man
That's kinda why He sang this song like there were guns pointed at the back of his head...that room was STIFF? I'm freaked out.
Just wonderful. A high point in a show stuffed full of talent. Hootenanny never fails.
Mesmo depois de anos George com uma afinação ímpar e perfeita.
Even after years George with a perfect and unique tuning.
Yay, George McCrae! Fab live performance, he's still got those great pipes! Thanks for posting.
He could sing the dictionary and make it sound like a love song
isso que é musica.... maravilhosa,,,,, sempre venho limpar meus ouvidos no youtube com as musicas anos 60..
EU TAMBÉM!
Georgie still has the moves the voice and the fashion.
Boa ...
That's right!
What a voice still. He sounds fabulous.
Good Evening Mr McCrae.
It is said that within 15 seconds, an audience can assess if the artist is singing the song from their heart.
Also, for a song to be truly meaningful the music must compliment the lyrics and the artist must ‘read’ the audience to enhance it further. In this performance, Mr McCrae does all of the above.
We salute you.
Amazing, definitely the best performance of the whole evening! Has been on repeat all day, happy New Year to you all! :D
Manu Claessens hahaha i cant stop watching it its so addictive can imagine how good the vibes were bloody brilliant amazing performance
Que maravilha ver que a voz ainda alcança os agudos sem desafinar.
Quem nasceu pra cantar é outra história.
I love this song brings back good memories. I listen to it every day to relax me 😂❤
