Saw Steve play many times over the years... always right on the button.... Your Persian eyes sparkle...your lips..ruby blue... Thank you for the memories....
Rest in peace, dear Steve! It’s very sad, much too early. Your music will live on, I am sure. Luckily I could introduce my son to your music. Hopefully one day to my grandchildren.
Never heard that song before, beautiful. Had some lovely holidays around the Amalfi coast with my wife . Battling leukaemia but this will be a song at my funeral. Rest in peace Steve, another loss from a fantastic era. Dave broadstairs Kent ❤
Forty years ago a small group of friends and I had a holiday on the Amalfi coast. We based ourselves in Positano. We visited all those places that Steve sings about here. We got on the boat from Positano to Capri and Ischia. We spent time in Napoli, Sorrento and Ravello and caught the train to discover the amazing place that is Pompei. This surely is one of the most beautiful and historic coastlines in the world. What a fabulous fantastic time we had, what great memories with people that I loved dearly. We were young then but now we are much older and some of those old friends are no longer with us, others including myself have moved on and lost touch and now I am retired I miss my old friends deeply. In the occasional unguarded moment those memories bring a tear to my eye. This song will always remind me of those of those days and the friends and times I miss so much that I know can never be repeated.
Very nice Mr Harley.... Only seems yesterday I bought the first 2 original Rebel albums in mid 70's. They were the best you ever made, but this is pleasent enough.....
I first saw Steve sing this at Buxton opera house aged 16 in 2006 with my mum and auntie. I remember at that time thinking wow. Aged 31 now and life’s moved on a lot but I still think wow when hear this song.
One of the best worldsongs ever !! Great singer/songwriter Steve Harley and thanks for to make this fantastic song ! Great photoclip , thanks for posting !
This by any standards is a lovely lovely song, especially if you're lucky enough to have seen Italy's incredible sights and befriended its humbling generous and friendly people! Thanks for uploading it and all those Oh so evocative images!
Great song, song for memories, elegic like "souvenir" from Amalfi or my Hvar, or everywhere where is so bright and we feel so high. Love Steve Harley from his beginings!
Thank you for posting this. Beautiful song. Stunning images. I will be there in 2 weeks for the first time and I already know that I won't want to come home!!!
Steve Harley: Coast of Amalfi Light shone with a breath-taking energy Boats bobbin' on the waterline Dusk settled but the flies didn't bother me I was high on the Coast of Amalfi. We sailed Positano to Capri Sat watching things unfold Drank shots in the shadow of Napoli Getting high on the Coast of Amalfi. Scaled hills on the Island of Ischia Seeking shelter from the sun Pretty girl, pretty boys blow a kiss to her She got high on the Coast of Amalfi. Bought leather on the streets of Sorrento Bartered goods without shame In a dream I took hold, didn't let it go Life was high on the Coast of Amalfi. I dreamed I was lost in the history Pompei in all its glory Life's home was a romantic mystery Rome fell on the Coast of Amalfi. Sailed off in a ship full of lightermen Just flattered to deceive I was sad, I was sad at the sight of them I got sad on the Coast of Amalfi. In that light you can see with a clarity Many faults in your life Fate smiles on the good and their charity I got saved on the Coast of Amalfi. My dream held this picture of beauty My dream showed this breath-taking load My dream had the quality of mercy My dream had the patience of Job My dream had this elegance and wonder My dream paid the debts that I owed I was high on the Coast of Amalfi Yeh, I was high on the Coast of Amalfi.
Lyrics in slovak language (text v slovenčine): Steve Harley: Pobrežie Amalfi Svetlo svietilo energiou berúcou dych, Člny sa hojdali na hladine vody. Súmrak padal, ale muchy ma neotravovali.

Steve Harley: Coast of Amalfi
Light shone with a breath-taking energy
Boats bobbin' on the waterline
Dusk settled but the flies didn't bother me
I was high on the Coast of Amalfi.
We sailed Positano to Capri
Sat watching things unfold
Drank shots in the shadow of Napoli
Getting high on the Coast of Amalfi.
Scaled hills on the Island of Ischia
Seeking shelter from the sun
Pretty girl, pretty boys blow a kiss to her
She got high on the Coast of Amalfi.
Bought leather on the streets of Sorrento
Bartered goods without shame
In a dream I took hold, didn't let it go
Life was high on the Coast of Amalfi.
I dreamed I was lost in the history
Pompei in all its glory
Life's home was a romantic mystery
Rome fell on the Coast of Amalfi.
Sailed off in a ship full of lightermen
Just flattered to deceive
I was sad, I was sad at the sight of them
I got sad on the Coast of Amalfi.
In that light you can see with a clarity
Many faults in your life
Fate smiles on the good and their charity
I got saved on the Coast of Amalfi.
My dream held this picture of beauty
My dream showed this breath-taking load
My dream had the quality of mercy
My dream had the patience of Job
My dream had this elegance and wonder
My dream paid the debts that I owed
I was high on the Coast of Amalfi
Yeh, I was high on the Coast of Amalfi.
Beautiful!
If you`re not able to make the trip, Steve Harley show you the glory of the Amalfi Coast here. Better than beeing there.
Love it ❤
Lyrics in slovak language (text v slovenčine): Steve Harley: Pobrežie Amalfi
Svetlo svietilo energiou berúcou dych,
Člny sa hojdali na hladine vody.
Súmrak padal, ale muchy ma neotravovali.
Bol som vysoko, na Pobreží Amalfi.
Plávali sme od Positana do Capri,
Sedeli sledujúc veci, ako sa rozvinú,
Pili šoty v tieni Neapola,
Dostávajúc sa vysoko na Pobreží Amalfi.
Šplhali sme sa po kopcoch na Ostrove Ischia
Hľadajúc úkryt pred slnkom.
Pekné dievča - pekní chlapci jej poslali pusu.
Dostala sa vysoko na Pobreží Amalfi.
Kúpili sme kožu na uliciach Sorrenta
Vymieňali tovar bez ostychu.
Vo sne som si vzal, nenechal som si to ujsť.
Život bol vysoko na Pobreží Amalfi.
Snívalo sa mi, že som sa stratil v histórii,
Pompeje vo všetkej ich sláve,
Domov života bolo romantické tajomstvo,
Rím vpadol na Pobrežie Amalfi.
Odplávali sme v lodi plnej jej zamestnancov,
Ktorí len lichotili, aby oklamali.
Bol som smutný, smutný z pohľadu na nich,
Zosmutnel som na Pobreží Amalfi.
V tom svetle môžete jasne vidieť
Mnohé chyby vo svojom živote.
Osud sa usmieva na dobrých a ich charitu.
Bol som zachránený na Pobreží Amalfi.
Môj sen si ponechal tento obraz krásy,
Môj sen ukázal tento dych berúci náboj,
Môj sen mal kvalitu súcitu,
Môj sen mal trpezlivosť Jóba,
Môj sen mal túto eleganciu a údiv,
Môj sen zaplatil dlhy, ktoré som mal.
Bol som vysoko na Pobreží Amalfi,
Áno, bol som vysoko na Pobreží Amalfi.
Tremendous 5:16
He is living in amalfi now.. I want it
❤
Wel mooie foto's, maar de melodie herhaalt zich voor mijn gevoel te vaak.
