- Heard it on the radio today, composed by Leo Sayer & David Courtney. This performance by Roger Daltrey really hit a chord with me after missing what it had to offer when it was first released in '73
Stunning. I am crying. 68yrs now and what a wonderful time it was. My 4 lovely children, now adults. What a shocking world we are passing to them.
Brings tears to my eyes. I remember my oldest brother turning me on to this in 1970 or 71. Turned 10 in 1970 turned 20 in 80 God I was so lucky to have lived that time in my teens.only the lucky ones go to our grave with those memories
I,m 75 now and does the same for me , PS I was 23 in 1970 OH WOW,,,,, life passes so fast!
grab every thing you can from life ,,its over in a Flash
Yes it does my friend. What a long strange trip it's been. But at least I enjoyed the ride. Happy Hollidays
My late cousin Rob introduced me to this song I was only 10 or 11 at the time love daltry
Douglas Martin, such great sentiments, we were a lucky generation. ❤
Legend , I was born in 61 remember all the classics how lucky we was ,
i 62 and greatfull lol
Best version is him and Leo singing it together ❤️
Great vocals, we should all cherish the great singers of the 70's, like us they're getting old
Leo Sayer wrote this great song.
Leo Sayer and David Courtney wrote it, Adam Faith produced it ---CAN YOU BELIEVE it failed to even chart in the USA?
You can just hear Leo sayer singing it but Roger puts his heart & soul into it, it's one of those songs you just have to play more than once.
This was made for leo sayer
I saw him ( Leo) perform this in London last year 🙏
There is a duet of this song with Roger and Leo , absolutely brilliant .
My youth thanks roger❤
No song has so many twist and turns, it's a masterpiece
So, ill stand on my and pray!! Brilliant.
Correct,.
Russ Ballard on lead, Bob Henrit on drums , wow !! amazing,
@1:40 you can hear the passion in his voice he really sings it with such force, superb.
yes yes yes.
treu
Yep!
Simple, powerful , only gets better and more meaningful.
First time I heard this song was on a Sunday afternoon at uncle Churches house in 77’ went outside for a walk in the rain on cherry street. I’ve never felt so calm since ❤
een van de beste nummer die er is uitgebracht ,sta na zoveel jaren nog steeds zot van ♥
Just reminded of it listening to Johnny Walker on Radio 2 today - I loved this when I was 9 years old - have t heard it for many years - love it - Rogers birthday tomorrow I think
God yes, im 60 now..takes me back to better times
Goose bumps and tears in the eyes I get from this song. Music at its best
A vague memory of this line & the song came to me from my boyhood a half century ago this morning. I'm glad it did. I think it's the story of my life.
Your comptely right like all good songs, they tell story!
Leo sayer wrote this for roger daltrey ,great song ,both artists released and had big hit records with this
Thanks
Listen to the album leo sayer wrote all the songs for roger brilliant album
only in the 70s, best songs ever
He is a majestic talent.
Not only is Roger Daltrey one of my All Time Favorite Singers and Front Man...but....He was the Only British Rock Star of his Era with Good Teeth!!!!.....LOL!
Great song and GREAT singer
Awesome tune!
Omg, this song is like a time machine, in an instance I'm transported back to my childhood 45years ago and it feels like yesterday. What a song and what a voice an amazing live performance full of emotion, love it, many thanks for posting this.
yes time sucks that time
Listen, pleaze we are all with you, rpsvp, Colin Gasgow
Absolutely stunning song
Standing at the bar on me 18th 1978 and I was just a boy
Great singing, straight from the heart, ranging from softly plaintive to passionately powerful.
A real singer.
Leo was better ❤️😄
The best version !!!!!
Second best. There. Fixed it. 😉
Leo Sayer ,best version.He helped Roger on some songs and that’s a bloody brilliant credit for anyone .
Timeless, yet of its time. Thanks for uploading.
I paid all my dues so I picked up my shoes,
I got up and walked away.
Oh, I was just a boy,
I didn't know how to play.
Worked hard and failed
now all I can say is
I threw it all away.
Oh, I was just a boy
giving it all away...
sail away, sail away,
ooh, I know better now, I know better now
giving it all away
ooh, I know better now, I know better now
I've given it all away...
Went out in the world too much for my nerves
only myself to blame.
oh, I was just a boy
nobody else to blame...
I've done all I can, now it's out of my hands
stand on my head and say
oh, I was just a boy
giving it all away...
sail away, sail away,
ooh, I know better now, I know better now
giving it all away
ooh, I know better now, I know better now
given it all away..
💘
Brilliant piece of music.Written by Leo Sayer who wrote a lot of music for Rodger.

The scary thing is that Roger Daltrey is almost 80 years old now.
scary getting old ,yes it is ...old git 75 ...god its horrid ,, Conan UK
@@conanhayle Hey...best thing is us "OLDIES" have lived with the best music ....Leo Sayer wrote this song...
why??? every body gets old also you
I was 17 when this was released and had just broken up with my first love. Memories flooding back......
Roger at his best 4star
It reminds me of going in and out of prison at a young age then I was in my cell and someone must of requested the song to be played on the prison radio I remember standing there looking out of my bard windows and this song came on it brought tears to my eyes because it reminded me of my life if that makes sense i never went back prison I haven't for 15years but I'd never forgotten this song
Awesome song 👏👏
Leo sayer wrote this song for Rodger and he had a hit with this himself bless him Leo is my favourite singer of all time ❤ xxx
Legend!
simply, brillant,
Good one, Dan. I like this song - have it on an album. Rolls along very nicely, my good friend. Not to be confused with Cisco Kid and Pancho, eh.
So melancholy. A life full of events, twist and turns, but only too short. Just a boy.......
Well done Leo and Roger!
Jeez, i recognised Russ Balllard straight away, "Hold your head up", Fantastic.
Just beautiful
Beautiful
Untoucheable
great vocals from Roger,,,,
GENIAL
Roger Daltrey,tja ,der beste Sänger der letzten Dekaden
Brilliant singer and actor for me
1973 looks good
I like how at 79 on that cruise show here on youtube he sings it in the same key, and I dare say it's even better than this great version.
Cool having "Argent" as your backing band
Love this song , even if I wasn’t born when this song came out
Wow, is that Russ Ballard on guitar? If he played on this album I’m gonna have to check it out
yes pretty sure
Mon Dieu ça me rappelle ma chère enfance 😭😭😭
Fantastic
Fucking pure class !!!
Roger daltrey and the Who simply the best
Brilliant solo artist and in theWho
Brilliant
Great singer
1960s 70s That shit was real music
This was my very first Single, i was 9 or 10 Years old in Lisbon. The B side also had a nice title but unfortunately I forgot it.
I love Rogers solo work,.. he seems to have more soul in his voice. I think he actually sounds better than he does with The Who,……
Rodger Daltry was brillant.
Ezt a dalt 2022 januárban hallottam először, ma már sokkal jobban értem mit mond
Classic 2023
I know better now at 69 giving it alway.
I love this song but u guys ever questions what he talked about ? 😅
Leo Sayer song.

Yeah I gave it all away do it again
Can you get this on cd
I don't know, I downloaded this from another YT channel & edited the closing. You could download this video and convert it to MP3 to put on your own CD if you have the software.
Best shit ever

Nice voice for a ruffian don't you think
Funny, depends who sings it and which one you hear first. Fir me, Leo Sayer is preferred .
