Russell's voice is still just as soaring and flexible as his younger years. It's glorious.
Best singer by far. I really adore him. His older brother ain't bad too.
You can’t do anything but love these guys. So talented and modest. How many “world’s best” bands have come and gone and the mightiest Sparks are still making great songs
One of my favourite memories of my dad was sitting together watching Top Of The Pops and howling with laughter at Ron Mael's expressions as he played the keyboard. Sparks are one of the most interesting and criminally neglected outfits....... still going strong after half a century
Mike, exactly the same here. The old man and me would laugh. It was he that made me watch him 👌❤️
An 8 year old me shouted “ Dad, come quick! Hitler is playing piano on top of the pops” the first time I saw them
Pretty song, and so intended for me. Greatest, yet most underrated band ever. If they were British, they would be as big as the stones and the who etc. Their longevity and brilliance should be celebrated.
Funny fact, I thought for such a long time, they were British 🙃
wow talk about maturing with age this is liquid gold
The coolest guys on Earth between the poles.
Right !
A stunning song in their catalogue of hundreds of stunning songs.
Clever, witty, classy.
Hello from France . All the talents gathered: melody, phrasing of his voice, humanity, originality of the style of the 2 brothers. What a joy to hear that they will be at the Cannes Festival 2021 with a french musical film, and that a documentary about them will be programmed in cinemas at the end of July 2021 ! Nothing is ever too late ! bravo, bravissimo !
Edith Piaf has never been more famous. Stravinsky, Mrs Lincoln, the Macbeth's, even string theory, the Sparks discovery channel? love you guys. keep up the good work
Sont vraiment forts ces artistes, des légendes, aujourd’hui le 21/04/2023, c’est la première fois que j’entends ce morceau, quelle beauté et pourtant je les connais depuis ‘la douche’ avec les RM. Comment se fait-il qu’on ne les entende pas plus à la radio ? Merci RUclips.
Mael brothers have been one of the Few 70s groups that have continued to improve great song writers always open to new ideas.
Russel (the singer) is 69 here ! And his brother Ron 72 !
Impressive !
Beautiful - the guitarist & backing vocalist is also fantastic
The little sparrow ( Edith Piaf ) would love this ...;-)
Brilliant track. Still has a super voice!!
sparks is the best band i've ever heard!
This is the first album that I bought for more than 20 years, and it's absolutely fantastic.
2017 and better than ever....wonderful!
even angels envy their divine charisma!!!fakk?
I am a Sparks fan since about 1981. This is one of my favorites.
Masterful. Perfect and intelligent and brilliantly phrased and sung.
... and let alone the marvellous 2020 album. Outstanding. The new hit "lawnmover". Sparks are the most creative band ever. Accompanied me during my teen years. Now I am 59...and their music is still extraterrestrial. They should get a nobel prize and endless stardom!!
Fabulously simple arrangement impeccably performed :-)
Still getting blown away by SPARKS ... From back in the 70s with mother nature .. To this classic xxx
How beautiful and Russells voice is so awesome. 👍❤️Thanks
Candy to my ears, candy to my soul. I like this stripped down version better than the original, actually.
🤩💖💖💖💖💖
That smile at 2:37 ! 😉
Such consummate and talented musicians / songwriters. I've been a fan since 1975 and always will be. Bravo, Ron and Russell. p.s. at first I thought that this was a 'tiny Desk' concert but I see it's separated into more than one video. Sparks need to be on Tiny Desk!
No doubt the best band ever. The Mael brothers are simply amazing.
Sparkingly crisp and fresh.
They are on my every day list.
"Je ne regrette rien" with such a lovely accent ! Vous êtes super, les garçons ! Je vous aime.
The Mael brothers are truly magnificent . ❤️ SPARKS
One of their best songs done so beautifully here
Russell is the best male singer of all time.
Deborah Crossley it is amazing how his voice is still as good at his age :)
@@morningcoffeecat2271 It seems like he, through his life, has aged 3/4 of a year per year instead of the 12 months as most of us do...
Agree 100% queen, the Bee gees and the beach boys had each other for the harmonies. Russell can sing all their combined ranges and more on his own.
@@johnwalsh128, and his range has just extended by the years, his voice has deepened at the same time as he still can reach almost as high as in the seventies. I'm not really sure he can take on his own 'Pineapple' in original key nowadays, but the man is to be 71 in October (2019), he is outstanding!!!
(IF anyone hasn't heard 'Pineapple' yet, do that. And try to reach that note on the word "need"!! It's not for an average person, not even a woman.)
I first heard Sparks singing Big Boy in the Rollercoaster movie, the years went by and now I'm sure these brothers are just divine. They deserve all the applause. I love you here in São Paulo, Brazil.
So many layers, it is brilliant
can i just say this song almost makes me cry? the poetry...
BETTER THAN MOST. ACTUALLY BETTER!
For a moment I thought I was 21 and back in the 80's, excellent song, amazing singing from a not so young Sparks! Brilliant!!!
Can't get this amazing tune out of my head ;)
Sparks-I have not re visited them since I was 16 with 'This Town ain't big enough for the both of us', struck a very deep chord back then. And now this.....pure magic. Boy's keep doing this to your last breath, utterly fantastic.
They will. The day they can't make music anymore, they'll die.
Please, God, Chuck Berry* or someone, never let them be not able to make music 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
(I'm not sure about the grammar here 😂, but I think you'll understand. Feel free to correct me, I don't mind learning! 😃)
*On the anniversary edition of' No. 1 In Heaven' Russell described how they met Moroder and how things came together, and joked about Chuck Berry as a potential God 😄😄🤩🥰
Oh my god...Loved Sparks since the mid 70's. Lost track of them. Glad they are still performing.
C'est vraiment dommage que cette émouvante chanson ne soit pas connue du public français.
These two are awesome ... as well as being decent humans 😊
"Hippopotamus" is the best 2017 album at the moment, imho.
I can't stop listening to this song. It speaks to me, and I have no idea why.
It also made me research Edith
J’adore ce duo. Ils sont remarquables ♥️
Toujours aussi surpris par la créativité et la qualité artistique de ce duo hors du commun. Beaucoup d'artistes parlent d'émotion, eux la provoquent spontanément. Bravo à vous, messieurs, continuez à nous surprendre et à nous faire rêver !!!
So much talent and just in their little fingers.
Brilliant!
sparks never grow old the music is still amazing cheers for down loading
One of their most beautiful songs, and they've written so many!
What a tribute to Edith, love them both.
One of my favorite songs
Loved Sparks since a teen still do!
Still an amazing voice < 3
the good old boys love them.
Great tune. It's in my running playlist!
Un pur régal étourdissant de tant de talents par trop ignorés.Pourtant quelle belle chanson...ou une pépite pour moi dans mon jardin d'étoiles.
pas mieux ! superbe morceau dans un superbe album !!!
Contrairement à pas mal d'anciennes gloires rock/pop des 70's, ils ont gardé une fraîcheur dans leurs titres et le sens de la mélodie qui accroche sans lasser. Bravo !
Fantastic brothers
Fantastic.
Sparks - they always spoke to me and still do.
Exquisite song!
Got to get me one of those RONALD keyboards.
