- Never saw a proper music video or lip-synch for this song, and that's a shame. I like this performance, though I'd prefer the ballroom dance feel of the original hit version to this Dixieland-flavored version. Hey, I like what I like...

In my young ignorance, I use to think this was a cheesy song. Later on, I realized that I was very wrong. This is I believe a very under rated song. I love it now.
I'm older but never heard it. Ehen I first heard it in the movie Fever Pitch I had to find it. So good. Perfect for that scene in the movie too
I loved this song when it was first on the radio in mid 70s I believe. It was so different from the usual pop songs on top 40s stations. Sort of a modernized version of old-fashioned pop songs. I was in college hearing while driving my first car. The years roll away when I hear it again.
I remember this song I loved it my dad used to sing it to my mom. 8 kids later they are still going strong.😊
I have always Love this song which I have never forgotten ❤️❤️❤️
Norman Hurricane Smith is a genuine Hero. He'd have been 100 on Feb 23, 2023; A British glider pilot in WWII, a pop music maven and a helluva cool dude.
Jeeez born 1923 how old was he in this footage… ?!
@@itsprivate4360 49 I think.
When I was a kid, my dad would play this loud in the car because I loved it. I miss my dad.
Same as my dad 😢
Felt your loss and pain just reading your very heartfelt and open post...
@@stuartleggat7176 thanks. Stuart Leggat. My dad committed suicide 9 years ago tomorrow. He was 78.
And mine.
Your dad had good taste x
GREAT SONG...I WAS 10 YEARS OLD BACK THEN.... NOW..I'M 65 I WANNA GO BACK IN TIME AND STAY THERE !!!
me too brother
I’ll join you . Much better times then 2024
This surely brings a tear to my eye, Man those were Better days/ years Now it's one big Insane world Lord have mercy !😭🙏
Every generation says that though… if you read Stephen Pinker you’ll see that things in many ways are better than ever. Hey, you’re watching this here on RUclips, that’s pretty damn good, don’t ya think?
The best days ever
Vietnam/Watergate and riots, so much better lol
@@PeterKKraus l am referring to the uk
The music actually was better. Rap is Crap and Disco still sucks lol.
This brings back so many good memories. Brings a needed smile in this gone crazy world.
So much to love about this video. For so many reasons.
This song brings tear to my eyes . Remembering when my mother was alive 💕
❤❤ I’m 68 years old and I think of my mom every day - she loved stuff like this too!!
Me too
My Mom loved this song too I was 10 when I first heard it. She would sing it to me, I grew to love it. I bought this CD with his song on it, and we both would sing it together in the car ❤❤
Thank You Norman Hurricane Smith I Love You for all the Joy you brought into our life❤❤❤
My God, I haven't heard this song in 40 years! My partner sang this song to me one night way back in 1998. He passed away in 2007 from pancreatic cancer, and I just cried for 15 minutes straight listening again! Such a romantic , beautiful and timeless song. Thanks for sharing it.
That is so sad-one of the sweetest love songs to me:( I'm sure he would like you to listen to this and think of him..
beautiful story. Sorry for your loss. This is one of my all-time favorite artists
I'm so sorry for your loss! I'm glad that hearing this song brings you back to that happy time in your life. Everyone should be so lucky to be loved as you have been. I hope you have found love again! ✌🏼❤️
So sorry for your loss, yes such a beautiful song. Hope it helps you to hear it and you have fond memories of your partner, may they Rest in Peace.
Ah, bless. Its strange how a song can have this effect, even years later. I too haven't heard this song for a very very long time. I woke up with it in my head thus morning though, out of the blue.
I 💓 Hurricane Smith, when I was a young teen around 14 in the 1970's, my dear Mother would sing this song to me so now that she's passed on, it makes me cry 😹 when I hear this song " Oh babe what would you say" I love you Mama!!😻
Have a chance with you.... or politely walk away....
God bless. Miss my mom tooo I was a child in the 1970s. Thought I remembered this
This was one of my mom's favorite songs back then, when she listened to it a kind of lonely look was on her face. My mom passed away on September 19 and now i know what that look meant. I ♡you 4ever momma!
💗❣️☮️☠️🆘😁🇬🇧😭🇬🇧💓🎵🎶☀️😁
Remembered this oddball Classic in the early 70 's . It was one of those songs you didn't want to admit you liked in front of your peers . This was a time when pop and rock creativity was in full swing and to admit to liking a throwback to your parent's generation was not cool . Heck from years earlier I liked Winchester Cathedral which was also scorned by the hippie critics
Dagg Nabit, why ?? I loved this song back when it came out (1972) and had no problem admitting to my friends or family. When it comes to music what other people think of my musical taste.
I was lucky, I grew up on things like Lawrence Welk and Sing Along with Mitch; my dad had a collection of several hundred 78s and a few hundred 45s from the late 20s through the mid 50s. When he died in '63 I was lucky to have a mom who'd listen to my music (some of it anyway; she finally drew the line on Ravi Shankar) and I'd listen to hers. Screw what my peers thought.
Your mother should know.
Jon Autry Winchester Cathedral I thought I was the only one cool
@@jonautry Honey Pie. I'm sure you know that this man was an engineer at EMI Abbey Road and worked on the first 100 or so Beatles songs
My dad died when I was 10 years old in 1975 in 2023 this song brings back so many great memories and one of the few songs that lives rent free in my head
Music is one of the few things that can g
Grab your heart and bring you back
What a beautiful man he was. I was only 11 when this song came out and I always have loved it so much. I just love his gravly, raspy tone of voice! Brings a tear to my eye, seeing him here. Rest in Peace Mr. Smith. This song will go on forever!!
This is wonderful because the 70s were strongly tied to jazz influence, art deco, music and style of the 1920s & 1930s on many levels. This stands test of time.
I heard this song in a radio when I was about to go to sleep, and immediately fell in love with the tune. At the end of the song the DJ didn't mention the name of the song and kept me wondering what was it. I am glad it became a hit.
War time glider pilot, engineer of both the Beatles and pink Floyd and sings and writes his own music to boot.
If only I could leave a mark in history that good:-)
The WWII era wide lapels and pointy collars had come back in style by the time this show was recorded.
No doubt Christopher! If only.
Maybe, maybe not.
I wasn't aware of his war service, only that I loved this song from the first time I heard it. Sang it for my granddaughter (6 yo) a few weeks ago- I don't sound too much worse than Hurricane, lol- and she loved it.
christopher adams it was a hit in Calgary Canada - I was a fan - different but in a good way
*tears* What a lovely gift to finally see this. A favorite song from my childhood!
The great thing about the 1970's is you always had these odd gems.
Loved this song! Close my eyes & I can see my mom (RIP) dancing to it with my 3 year old daughter around the living room, great memories!
Finally got to see him perform, just sat and watched this video with a huge smile on my face the whole time! Thank you so much for this video :)
I remember listening to this in my office in the late 70's. Also Kelsey Grammer sang it as Frasier on Cheer's, in the 80's
O babe what would you say?
A man in a sharp suit, a great vocal performance, a sax player wearing sunglasses, a lovely jazz-infuenced solo, a well-written song and live, too. That'll do for me.
And Johnny introducing him. And early seventies music 🎶 and TV 📺 the list could go on.
I will guarantee that your mood will change after hearing this song. A few years ago, I was going through a severe depression. Tried to look for a quick remedy. Perhaps a movie, a self help video. By accident, I came across the song. Never had heard it. The simplicity of the music, lyrics, and mood made me feel at ease. Although this man has passed, his message is carrying on....
I love this song! It always makes me smile.
kevin u : Me too! It just brings me back to a more innocent era.
One can't help but SMILE throughout. It's a happy song.
Hurricane Smith, aka Norman Smith, was an engineering and production genius who worked extensively with The Beatles, Pink Floyd and a host of other legendary bands. He found additional fame in the early 1970's with this huge hit song.
He produced the first three Pink Floyd albums. The first day that the band showed up at Abbey Road studios, Paul McCartney greeted them and said of Smith, "You're in good hands."
Having grown up with music all my life, it's amazing to me that I never heard this song until I got a 70s compilation CD with it included. Can't get enough of it since! Great tune and the original is even better. So sad to hear he is gone. Love you, HS. RIP
What yr was this
Time Life CD compilation?
This is a great tune. I've been practicing tenor sax a hour a day for 6 years now.
@@JohnJones-gg3zd The song was released in 1972.
Hurricane CDs available on Amazon. I have at least two.
I just love this song, it takes me back to my Mom watching the Mike Douglas Show, or Merv Griffin and me buying the 45 at Sam the Record Man and playing it on my record player, over and over...this is really fun musical history and it makes me smile big time! :-)
It's one of my favourite song, I really love this song so much because he reminds me when I am much younger.hello 👋
I remember dancing in the snow with my brothers and sisters to this song December 1972 as a 9 year old and my dad had the song cranked up in his station wagon with Windows down. Boy what a great time in life that was. Great song
What year?
I like this song. It's on my favorite list.
I LOVE this song!!!!!! I have the "45" and listened to it constantly on my record player as a kid, now it's on my Ipod!!! lol
I’m addicted to this song, love the voice, strings ,words and sax! Wish some one would do a remake so I could hear it on the radio.
Anything would pale in comparison.
Such a FABULOUS song on so many fronts. His voice, his appearance, his motions, the lyrics, the awesome soloist sax player, the background sax players, the orchestration, the tempo, etc, etc. The whole package is over the top.
This song makes you feel happy. It makes you feel good.
It's a real treasure.
I love binge listening to it. My happy place.
Amazing !
After years and years of listening to this song -- it has always made me feel Happy when I listen to it and I love the saxophone solo at the end -- I finally see the person of "Hurricane" Smith.
He is cool looking guy and his voice can be recognized miles away.
God bless him !
Brings tears for my brother, he loved this tune, god bless him,🙏🙏💗💗💗💗💗
Genius, absolute genius. I remember loving this song in the early 70's. Those really were the days. Thank you.
My thoughts exactly. Recording much better.
Hurricane Smith what a genius used to listen to him going down to Cornwall in my dad's Ford Anglia with my mum and my sister I would have been 12 and a half I am 63 now my sister is 60 huge love and respect to Norman Hurricane Smith
Was 8 years old when this originally aired in 72 and talked my mom into letting me stay up with my older brother and sister to watch it(the 3 of us loved this track).The Tonight Show aired from 11:30 til 1AM back then and before he made it on I fell asleep.I was SO pissed!It was very difficult(or impossible)to see re-runs of specific episodes of the Tonight Show,so I had to wait for the "Age of RUclips" to finally watch it.Thankfully we can now see it whenever we like.
same here, fell asleep all the time before i got to see what i wanted on the tonight show- i was 13 in 72 and thought i was a big-shot who could stay up late and not fall asleep...yeah, sure. Mom was right...AGAIN !!
Wow, I can't believe there is a live version of this song on RUclips! I had this single when I was a kid and played the snot out of it!!!! I can't believe this guy worked on Pink Floyd albums. The name 'Hurricane' was the nickname that the Floyd members called him!
Hurricane Hank is a cool name.
@@gboard7 funny be he slightly resembles Nick Mason
and the Beatles too.
I remember seeing him on American Bandstand back in the 70's, breaking out with this song. Just GREATNESS........Loved that era!! Simple songs, great pleasure!!
Yes, I also saw him on American Bandstand.
I love this song. Reminds me of my youth...around 9 or 10 yrs old. Such happy feelings and good emotions that come from this tune. I don't really give a good damn if it's a one hit wonder. All I know is this guy is/was talented. Thank you for great music.
I heard this on a radio station and came here randomly. Even though I'm not an American and was born in 2000, I wish I would've born in 80s.
I used to hear this all the time back in the Seventies on WIP in Philly, and I never realized that he was white. He really sounded like an old ragtime or bluesman from New Orleans, I though. I loved that voice.
Yes, that's what I thought, too.
I too thought he was black. I remember hearing this song in '73 / '74.
Same here--heard it on WIP. He didn't sound black to me. There was a nostalgia movement back then--I remember in particular an album being sold on UHF (probably Longines) featuring Rudy Vallee, Helen O'Connell, and others of that time. This just fit right in. I thought WIP (especially in the '70s) was the greatest. I taped music, but tried to cut off the talking. Wish I had just let the recorder run.
Honestly back in the good ole days of music I can hardly tell people apart. Unless I already know them of course. But as a young man discovering these jewels for the fist time, it’s a toss up for me.
Fantastic song
Wow, So Many Memories Come Flooding Back.
One Of Our Mums Favourite Record.
We Lost Her In 1995 And Our Dad In 2017.
God Bless To Them Both.
And Thank You For This Majestic Memory
One of my favorite songs from the early 1970s. Hurricane Smith. What a name. What a song!
Mr Smith is absolutely fabulous! Love the way this English Chap sings so beautifully 🌟🧡🌟❤️
The humbleness , the harmony, the lovely , the tenderness , The music of Hurricane penetrate our heart and makes sing and dance with him.. Oh God!!
A unique and memorable voice !
I often came back to U-Tube just to listen to Hurricane Smith sing this tune.
He was a cool , interesting character and the saxophone solo at the end is simply ....great !
This song brings back good memories of lesser hectic life and it still makes me feel happy when I listen to it.. R.I.P. Hurricane.
Brings me back to a great time in my life.I sang this to my husband and he thought I was crazy but loved it too
RIP Norman!! You were way ahead of your time. Thank you for the upload !! This is one of my all time favorites.
That brings back utopian times. What wonderful memories 💗
Oh, this song brings back so many nostalgic memories for me. I haven't thought of it in years and now the memories flood back. There was nothing particularly special about HS or the song, but together with the time and place and I was transported back to my first love and walking along the Milky Way with him.
He'd be almost 90 years old now but passed away a few years back... I was a brand new first time mom when this came out and what a wave of nostalgia came over me hearing it again! GREAT song!
I haven't heard or thought of this song since I was a young child! i always have had a memory, and ear for music. And this song just popped into my head, so here I am!
Keep on rock'n in the sax world.
The last time that I saw my dad alive, was when he danced with, and performed this song for our (then) two-year old daughter, at our Memorial Day (weekend) picnic, in 1991. Several times each year, the topic of 'dad's impeccable timing' on his last full day on earth, comes up for discussion. I am beyond grateful, for having had a "dad", instead of a father.
I remember when this song came out as a kid and loved it immediately. It was on the radio all the time.
I love this tune. Its on my 70s CD in my vehicle. :c) Great classic stuff from a time when things were happier!!!!
Wow I remember my father listening to this on am radio in the 70's down the Brooklyn streets of new york
My friends and I were 12 years old or so. We thought this song was a goof, it was on all the time so it really brings me back every time I hear it. How great it is when I can forget today, for a few minutes, close my eyes and be a kid again.
I was 10. I actually really liked it then and love it now
I have always loved this song. I recently found my box of 45s from the 60's and 70's. This was the first record I played. I cried like a baby. This is my song.
Billboard's #57 song of the '73 survey year. God bless you, longus, for postin' it. Thanx! RIP, Hurricane. (actual 1st name was Norman).
An oddball connection with both The Beatles and Pink Floyd. I’d never heard this song until I moved to New England in 1987, but I liked it instantly. So glad to see a live performance, and he is most definitely singing it live. I LOL’d when he stuck his finger in the saxophone player’s ear. I wonder who he is. Anyway, thanks for posting this, it’s a true treasure. 🙂
After all the years that passed since I last heard this song, I still love it! Thank God I have such eclectic tastes in music... otherwise, I'd have missed out on a lot of good music! Shame it's hard to find good music today as easy as it was then!
I'm like you Marilyn. I can listen to this song, then jump to Foggy Mtn. Breakdown, next to William Tell Overture, to Amazing Grace and finish up with Glenn Miller's Moonlight Serenade. I like almost everything.
Mike, thank you, that's really sweet of you to say! You made my night! If you've ever seen my many playlists, you would see what I mean. My love of different kinds of music has spanned centuries! I love what I consider to be good, even great music, and even covers of songs, but ONLY if done right. Today's music in my own opinion, can be too vulgar, too disrepectful, not really showing talent, but going for shock value. What used to be appreciated as love songs, full of passion, are now pure lust, nothing more than "I want to jump your bones!" If you call a woman out her name, I can't help but wonder if you would want someone in your own family ie, your Mom or sister to be called those same horrid names, let alone have called them out yourself? Blacks use words that were hateful towards us, but try to justify by changing letters! You just gave more power to those fools you would likely kill or attempt to for calling you that! Hypocritical, don't you think? I could go on and on, but I think I've made my point... Have a blessed night and weekend, Mike, don't be a stranger! Much Love and Respect! :-).
***** Good morning, Rachel! If your Dad knows this song, we may be about the same age (I'm doing a "slow bob" towards #52!) This song is my jam! I had to look hard for it! ;)
***** he was 49 when this was released in 72
***** He died a few years ago Rachel
This is a truly great video. Opens with Carson being cued just as he's finishing some humorous banter, doesn't skip a beat, with typical Carson command he renders a skilled introduction and then we're treated to this brilliant two-man musical performance.
I haven't heard this song in decades, but I remember every word. What fun I just had singing along! Thanks weenielongus!
i love the original version. The ballroom feel is what carries the original. But this live version is also awesome. Like another take on the song.
Never gets old. Love it!
I've got the fondest memories of this song while growing up, and even my children love to listen to this when they come visit,(That's saying a lot for today's so called "Music" thanks so much for this piece of treasure.
Love this song and his style of singing ! This song brings back great memories of my younger days.
I love it
Bravo Hurricane Smith‼️
この歌 大好き! ありがとう!🎤🎷🥰
I remember how refreshing this song sounded when it came out. I love the way you can tell he's more comfortable producing than performing. Thanks for posting.
This song forms part of my blurred memories of when I was about 10 years old and started to listen to and like international pop music. As a child I was then more busy with other things but the process in me started underground. Some accords of this theme make me remember some of the English sounds, also represented by Julie Budd or even the earlier Bee Gees, or some others of which I never knew the names but liked to listen in the radio or the TV. Magic and misterious times as I see them now...
memories no one can take that away from anyone
Wow, this takes me back to the 8th grade. It's a relief to finally put a face to a song from so many years ago, 1972.
Smith also played drums on the beautiful 1968 Pink Floyd song "Remember a Day".
Thanks for the wonderful post. I loved this song as a kid and still do... God Bless Hurriucane Smith... and the post-er too!
Liz O. I remember when it was in the charts at the time, but got buried deep within my old memory jukebox until I heard Kelsey Grammer singing it on a Frasier repeat. Since then, been giving it a spin every once in while. Fun song.
what a talented guy.....to hell with all you critics....what will you be remembered for ?

LINDA CANÇÃO....LINDA VOZ....DÁ GOSTO DE OUVIR...'''''HURRICANE SMITH''''' FICARÁ PARA SEMPRE EM MEU CORAÇÃO, ME TRAZ BOAS RECORDAÇÕES....12/07/2019
I had this song on a old 8 track tape and almost cried when the players went out and I couldn't listen to it anymore.. Thought I never would hear it again! I LOVED this song and his music!! WOW! This is amazung to hear him again! THANKS!!!!
great memories from the 70's. thanks for posting!
I found it thank you...love this song.
I can't believe all you snotty buggers taking pot-shots at this mans voice and saying "he has no business singing"...by your brainless attitude, Dylan, Neil Young shouldn't have sung, or the Beatles for that matter (such nasal, untrained, out of tune singers!!) you must be more into Rap-bullKrap, vocoded Rhianna/Gaga/Bullcrap, or the technically "perfect" (though eternally boring) voice of Michael Buble'...as it is, Norman Smith's admittedly quirky but unique voice fits this lovely, timeless song to a T.
THANKS for stating that... :)
I have a timeless crush on him, and the way he sings this wonderful song...
It is purely fantastic that he could put such a soaring sentiment in someone's heart, such as through this song!!! :)
AngellaMysteriosa
This is just a great song, lyrically and compositionally, and it's precisely because H. S.'s voice is NOT debonair and "manly", that it especially fits the subject matter of the song: guy is after girl, guy is maybe beneath her, maybe unattractive, yet his love is real and sincere, if she would just give him the "half a chance".... this song (as recorded by H. Smith) is for anyone (guy or girl, really) who's ever dared to love that one that seems to be, and sadly, maybe is, so "out of reach", so "out of your league", yet the love remains, the "hope against hope" that maybe, just maybe....
I too have known the feeling (even if it's just not true, that anyone is below any other)...
I recently experienced that with a man who lives in Europe, his life so far apart from mine in miles and in circle of life... Admiring someone soooo...while they barely even notice you, or who you are... such is life.
:(
I find his voice entertaining. He's no Blue Eyes, but he's amusing. His voice reminds me of a comedian from the 50's.
James Penn Yes, its like Red Skelton singing a luv song, which is precisely why it works so well....
My Mom loved this song. When I was young I always wondered why, it's such a quirky song with a very unusual singing voice. Looking back now it's all about the message of the words. Simple feel good song. The world can use more of these right about now. The voice, the tune, the times all fit together perfect. Lets see you come up with a tune as catchy as this.....given todays standards of music which have really faded.
What a unique voice ! Great happy memories fly back to me when I listen to this lively tune. Remidns me of my arrival in the U.S.A. as a "rookie" immigrant just arrived from Portugal. Today even my daughter Laura loves this song.....and so do I !!!
Funny, the memories you get when you hear a song from your childhood. I remember in the Spring of 1973 my neighbor got out of his VW Beetle to check his mail and this song was blasting out of his car radio. It's such an uplifting, wonderful song. Kind of a big band dance number.
Indeed it is funny the memories that stick with you from childhood.
you know my father and i used to listen to this in his mk11 cortina in the school holidays, i was a kid then he was a tyre salesman, he died today rip barry, he loved this track and so do i,
he was born in 1923, so this song reflects the influence of what he had likely grown up listening to. He was 49 when he recorded it , and it was something he'd wanted to do since he was a kid, so there ya go, there's this sort of time warp back to when he was a kid watching Laurel and Hardy and listening to big bands of the thirties and forties.Absolutely beautiful man and song.Recall hearing this in the seventies and being taken back to another era, reminded of something forgotten.
This song is one of the ultimate rewards of entertainment. I can play it over and again and not get enough joy and bounce. Thank you.
j adore!! pour moi c est un souvenir merveilleux!!
i loved this song. just a happy ragtime feel. Smith is passed away at the year 2008. He sounds like Louie Armstrong, a little. I loved his voice.
You're right he does sound like Louie Armstrong!
Chris Pritchett A bit of Al Jolson, too.
I was a kid when this song was popular, I always thought Hurricane Smith was a pseudonym for Carol Channing.
@@ronkelly9428 oh wow! I can hear it 😄
Ron Kelly me too!
I recall this oldie from when I was about 10 years old. I sure miss those special days and all my childhood friends. Long Live the 1970s!!!!!!!!
My Mom LOVED this song! I remember being in the car & if this came on, she'd turn it up & sing along. Good memories. ❤
Pretty good lyrics and music.
I had a great time when this was playing.Guess you had to be a musician or in love all the time!!!Sax player , Great!!!
I thought it was a nice gesture when Hurricane motioned to his sax player at the end when the audience was applauding. He deserved acknowledgement.
What about when he motioned his finger in his ear?! xD
Right on!
May have been set up before the song! Pretty cool he just kept playin' :-)
A Wet Willie!
Kelly02895 until just now I thought it WAS her!
great song..one of my dear Mum's faves...remember it as a kid...and the Sax player (cool as hell) gets what must be the original wet willy in the ear'ole and dosen't miss a beat....good stuff :))
I heard this song flipping through channels, it took me back to Jr High school days. Reading the history of Norman Smith is amazing! It's a treasured song!
Heard that song 1972 in the Netherlands... Big Hit... 😁👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
such a classic by a legend.
Wow have not hear this since I was a kid. Great times.
Lol...i was watching frasier valentine show and knew immediately it was this song...from my childhood!!! Love!!!
great song. great melody.. love it... thumbs up.
I Adore this song , I miss both Hurricane & Johnny ,Thanks For the Smiles :))
Well, a few years ago, I found this song, after singing it to myself for some reason, and looked it up. Then suddenly, it was "a private video--SORRY!", and at the time, I couldn't remember what song it was-all I saw was a blank spot where the song used to be. Then I saw this and looked it up. Its such a great song, and reminds me of junior high.My friends and I used to sing to it whenever we'd hear it on the radio, and I have an aunt who's 11/2 older than me, and we used to dance to this song
Great performance! Brings back memories of going to the Paramus roller rink on Saturday afternoons.
I'm 75 yts old. This was the song that bonded me and the "girl I should have married." It.turned out differently. I abandoned her and vice-versa. I have cried....over the years...poor me, self-pity, and shame, guilt, etc. Haunts me still. Just a "lovely" innocent song, lyrics, and feelings.
