      Steve Harley was a 'No Compromise Genius''.
      He Blatantly refused Record Company Commercial overreach
      at the expense of his Writing and Musical Integrity.
      He 'mellowed' somewhat in later years but he never
      lost that 'edge' which defined him as a person and
      can be heard in his music.
      What a Legacy to leave behind, over 5 decades of Music
      and some of the best Pop / Rock ever written and performed.
      Enjoy your ''Timeless Flight'' Stephen Malcolm Ronald Nice
      you earned it.

    🖤Yesterday Mars 17 th, we received the sad news that Steve Harely has passed away. My musical journey started when I heard this song in 1973.
    The reason I posted my version of "sebastian" was not because I thought I would make it better in any way, but because I wanted more people to discover Steve Harley and listen to his amazing albums or go to his concerts. R.I.P Steve Harley and Thank you for all great songs/The Black Heart Rebels crew🖤(Check Out this wonderful Tim Quinn intervju from last year!!ruclips.net/video/A8T3lDUBMpg/видео.html&ab_channel=TimQuinn )

      Thanks so much! well.. it took me 4 years to gather enough courage to post this cover on youtube, and it was, believe me, not without trepidation that I pressed the "publish" button on this one:...it was scary-)
      No one wants to go down in history as a butcher of iconic songs written by iconic artists.
      So again! Thanks!

    I remember Steve Harley's (& Cockney Rebel) "Make Me Smile", but I've never heard this one! Anyway, it's a beautifully uplifting song and the visuals accompany it perfectly!!
    Bravo 'Black Heart Rebels' , really nice cover version - melancholic with beautiful lyrics! I got goosebumps when the backing vocals kicked in - just fantastic!

      This song was written to reflect the last days of Oscar Wilde who was living as a recluse in Paris and had to change his name to Sebastian.
      This is a Masterpiece by Steve Harley and deserves far more recognition than it receives.

      @@ViktoriaPerla2 In your original comment you referenced ''Make Me Smile'' saying you had never heard Sebastian.
      I have assumed, and sincere apologises if I am incorrect, that you may not be aware of what many ''Harley'' Fans consider to be his masterpiece,
      ''Death Trip''.

      Tnx for tuning in!..yes..well..you should know that I pondered for 3 whole years whether to release this version or not...finally I thought...what's the worst that can happen...some comments about "blasphemy" maybe. It's an iconic song and I know we don't even come close to the original(hence the links in the description)...BUT...if this means someone from, hopefully, the younger generation, or whoever, discovers Steve Harley's great catalog with all he's great songs, then we've actually done a "good deed ". All the best! Eric J Green, BHR

    One of the better covers out there, as you say it wasn't your intention to try and better the original, but to put SH and CR out there to a wider/younger audience. The 70s were the best time to be alive, anyone that says different, wasn't there.

    One of the strangest tracks ever produced, the smell of incense is evident throughout.

    • @blackheartrebels
      @blackheartrebels  9 месяцев назад +1

      Lol! Yeah..I guess you can smell a lot of different scents around this song. Above all, I feel the scent of a wonderful early 70's, where everything was possible and you could climb high on the charts with experimental compositions with close to nonsense lyrics and with a song that was also almost 5 minutes long in its original. I miss that time so much that I had to make a cover to get into that feeling. No cover of this song can measure up to the original nor was it my intention to in any way try to make a better version of this song.
      The good thing about this cover is actually that it has opened the eyes of some of the younger generations who haven't listened to Steve Harley and in many cases haven't even heard of him.
      Thanks for listening and commenting! Much appreciated!/Eric J Green
