DAVID GATES (1971) - "It Don't Matter To Me" (In Concert at the BBC)
Vložit
- čas přidán 1. 01. 2017
- Recorded 'Live in Concert' for the BBC, airing in the UK during January 1972. Although he was a member of BREAD at the time, this was a solo performance and neither Jimmy Griffin, Mike Botts nor Robb Royer made the journey across the Atlantic with him for this one...
I'm 66 years old and I still get the chills down my back listening to this song when I when I was 15 years old I was around 15 16 years old just amazing David Gates and bread what a band what a great band wrote some beautiful songs
We're two older dudes in that same boat.....where did the decades go? This song brings me back to the Wonder Years.
Me too!! 😃🌏🪐🌕🙏🦋🌷🐝🌸🦉🏡🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Agreed , I’ll turn 70 next month . 16 - 17 years old down at OC , New Jersey in the summers on the boardwalk listening to BREAD and all the fun I had…. Then the draft got me at 18 …. Still , Bread , Cat Stevens, Beatles … I want to go back !
I’m 72, chills too!
I am 67, same feelings as you guys!! ❤
Who can write, play and sing like this today? One of the greatest of all time.
Nobody today. Music is dead.
what music?...I don't hear music nowadays!
zip..
Us baby boomers grew up in the best decade of music!
Im a 63 yr old baby boomer. You are 100 percent right.
You ain't never lied. 🎼 ☎ 📻 📺 👍
Yes we did, 67, and going strong...rock-on folks...
Dear baby boomer of the name Tim Rouse ... generation x envies you !!!
Hallelujah. The crap that passes for music today...nails on a chalkboard. And ALL of it sung by sluts and gamgbanfers of one variety or another.
When America had talent.
BUT ..... It's STILL around for us..... I really miss those days.... Was just a kid then , but the radio was always on , and the '70s we're tumultuous but kinda great too....THAT America is gone forever
65 years old, and this still gets to me. My teenage years in the 70s were the best, broken heart and all.❤
I’m also 65. I’m listening to Bread songs because I’m really depressed. I for some reason need to be more sad. The group with the saddest songs are Bread. I choke up just listening to David Gates sing them. If I really want the works, it’s got to be Diary. The last verse rips my heart out every time. I’m going through that now after 37 years.
@@michaelwalton9685 65 here also. Been listening to their songs and they have touched me especially Diary, Everything I Own and Aubrey. Brings back so many memories happy and sad.
I forgot to add If.
One of the most beautiful voices in the world!!
So right, raw talent, flawless
What’s hard to believe is you’re turning 80 this year David ........where did the time go? God bless you and your family and Bread. You have shared your amazing voice and most beautiful songs ever written. Your music will never cease to bring joy and happiness to the world, not just me.
I’m so grateful and thankful for your voice and your amazing talent, you are a gift from the Lord above.❤️💞❤️💞❤️
We stand in absolute solidarity with and behind the dear Nancy-of-Parland with reference to David-of-Gates and his Bread-band.
This guy could write and sing the most beautiful songs.
Absolutely lovely!
You know ?!? We agree a thousand percent, dear Bocobob. David Gates was a gently soft yet powerful power of those 1970s and throughout eternity.
He could write about a lonely rock and turn you into a dribbling mess.
That’s talent.
One of my big regrets is that I didn't see a lot of these groups in the 80's when they were still young.
No computers at that time. Orchestra served very nicely. Thank you very much
David Gates was one the best singer-songwriters from the 70s. Beautiful melodies Beautiful Voice!
Bob W Yessir! Where’s he from? Oh yeah, Tulsa! BOOMER
The one thing we cannot accuse the dear Bob W of is lying !!!
Yes he was a mega talent and his music will never stop playing
Yes yes yes he is the best live him as he came to the uk years ago and at Birmingham uk fantastic beautiful concert with every end of a song he told the story and before with sometimes very special warm jokes I'll never forget
The 60s and 70s were the best For music to last a Lifetime........
There was a girl I loved with all my heart. She broke up with me with this song. 50 years later I still think of her.
♡
Why does this comment bring me so much pain.. 😔
Women of old were special.
It's almost cruel how sometimes time itself does not let you forget.......
Ditto
I've had one of their albums for about 45 years now. I am getting old and sure miss being young and innocent.
Its as simple as this, David Gates with his band Bread wrote some of the most beautiful songs, he also had the perfect voice to sing them. Its a real shame you rarely hear his music on the radio today
We only understand the dear sentiment of the dear Chris-of-Murphy.
This is what you call talent! Not the crap you hear today!
That’s a bit brutal lol many amazing young musicians they’re just not as mainstream as the ones that obviously annoy you
all the crap you hear today, you’re right especially ghetto trash rap
I can’t stand that shit
Beautiful song, love to return to 1971, and be a 16 year old teenager. In love with my cute girlfriend.
I'm still in love with your voice, David Gates. Ever since I was a kid.
I noticed you and your wife will be married 60 years this year. Wow. That's amazing. Bless you both.
Congrats David. Love your voice and talent!
Jesus how unreal is that 60 years im not even that age close though...If i had not of started out at 14 with guy age of my mother at the time who was abusive ..Maybe i would of had something long lasting?? Naaahh stupid me...Congrats to David Gates & his wife.A love like that is hard to find these days.It takes a man whose appreciative of his wife.Even the Bible says treat her right.
Amen, dear 'a m' and whomever the dear 'a m' is referring unto.
Gosh! Has it been that long !?
1973 born here with a Mother that always had her little black radio on with a piece of masking tape marking her favorite station. I grew up with Annie Dreamboat Annie, love that song, early Heart, Bread, Dan Fogelberg, The Moody Blues, etc. Sometimes I’ll play 70’s soft rock to calm down. Takes me back to playing on my swing set, blue skies smilin at me, no cares.🐝🦋🌻🌞
You can not go wrong with 70s music. I lived it. I tried 15 yrs old May 9, 1970. I'd go back to the 70s and stay. I'd still have Mom & Dad.♥️✌
I still get a lump in my throat when I hear this.
We were in a much better place back then for sure
One of the finest writers of love songs from the 1970's.
Best voice of the 70's soft rock without a doubt 👍👍👍👍
Male
Thank you David, from the very bottom of my 70 yr old heart.
I think you can capture any woman's heart if you have his voice.
He had mine years ago at age 15. Would have been great to hangout just to know anything about him. He seemed very sweet and gentle. He was 16 years older than me to begin with. So at the time of this song he was 31.
Edna Morris ☺
David Gates an unheralded genius, such a talented singer songwriter. The fact that we are still listening to his beautiful music nearly 50 years on says it all.
We sigh in absolute-and-smitten agreement, dear Fender-of-Bud.
Why do people say underrated? How do you know he is? In what way is he underrated?
@@UnitedSoundVideo 'Unheralded' is different from 'underrated'. Actually, as a guy who lived thru that time as a teenager, I can verify that he was unheralded. The band name got more acclaim than David Gates, and if you see an interview with him, you understand why. Totally down to earth and humble.....and uber talented.
Gosh my pre teens and teens this music is timeless nobody will ever have the music we had back then never
One of the best songs. The insightful lyrics are spot on.
Damn, David Gates! Your music moves me to a good place...
That effect of The David Gates descends upon all of us, dear Chris-of-Campbell.
underrated but definitely one of the greatest singer-songwriters of all time.
They were not underrated in the early 70s. Heard these songs all the time on the radio. Love them.
We get overly emotional because no matter we say can never fully emotionally express our agreement with the words of the dear Nicolas-of-Ocampo. David Gates is just one of those 70s gents who cannot be equalled by anyone outside his era ... and if he is, we shall only be very pleasantly surprised ... if not eternally dumbfounded and gobsmacked.
wow what great years they were , David is 80 yrs old in Dec 2020,, where has time gone
Time has gone but the essence of dear Bread has not, dear Gaaza G ... and never will.
Bread. A great band and a brilliant song. 50 years later , and still good !!
Truth from dear Peter-of-Glynn.
2021 and this beautiful man’s music is still played and still loved and enjoyed. Thankyou David Gates for your songs ❤️
Pure genus he takes things we all feel inside brings it to paper and puts the thoughts to a beautiful harmony very insightful incredible talent
These BBC recordings from the 70's are fantastic!
They are special treasures. Neil Diamond's appearance was amazing as was Neil Young's.
Growing up when this kind of music was on the radio, seemed so natural. After hearing the monotonous drivel today, I realize it was a blessing. I totally agree with the comment about Karen Carpenter. Two beautiful voices
The very true words of the dear Brooks-of-Wade are a "BLESSING" themselves.
This is a proper song, written by a proper songwriter and sung by a proper singer.
They don't make them like that anymore.
I've loved Bread's music since the early 1970s; it just doesn't age.
What a great vocal voice. Nobody can sing that tune anymore.
I was in a band in High School with his son Rick in 1978. As soft-spoken as he sings. Biggest influence on me as a songwriter. Timeless. Awesome to hear this truly live performance. No playback, real orchestra, no auto-tune. Also lovely to see David not playing to the camera so much. As natural as can be. Gave me chills. I can honestly say they don't make 'em like they used to. Long live David Gates. The world's a beautiful place when we hear his music. What a gift he gives us all.
Those sincere words will ever pierce and echo into the future, dear David-of-Holler. David-Gates-and-Bread are an ever-exportable treasure of America that America itself might not even know or have totally forgotten ... just like The Beatles are to Liverpool-and-England.
And he is actually singing, not lip Synching or pitch correction!!!
Yes, but on other clips they play back,.,.
Stating the bloody obvious
Indeed, dear Sejrec56. That is a long-forgotten beauty of why a paying audience watch an artist performing live, as opposed to just listening to their CD ... or more appropriately ... vinyl single or LP.
How many people are listening to this today after pressing the ‘play’ button on this CZcams video?
This is how I should feel, but i am more hell hath no fury! I love Bread more and more as I get older, wiser and Right Minded!
Yes we EAT Organic Bread DAILY!...
Forget Michael Jackson and all other singers .David Gates is the true king of all music 🙂
I love David Gates solo and with Bread but MJ was in league of one as a singer and entertainer
fantastic voice and a great guy!
40+ years and still current. That's a masterpiece
Truly spoken, dear Greg-of-Mooney. Truly spoken.
For me, one of the most fantastic groups in the world
The dear Marcelo-of-Poppe will only see that he is in the company of others who feel the exact same way. We all need to feed on BREAD.
Brings back memories of the good part of my young life. Damn ! This guy was extremely good looking.
When I was in my young teenage years I knew of the band , loved their music , played a few of their songs on my piano, but never bought their album. I never knew who the lead singer was. Didn't know what he looked like. But, I guess it was for the better, cause I would of been so jealous of his really good looking person. For his music melted the soul.
Bad for you then.
It’s always remarkable when you listen to him perform live how much he sounds like the original recording. The orchestral arrangements are so perfect and beautiful
It don't matter to me
If you really feel that you need sometime to be free
Time to go out searching for yourself
Hoping to find, time to go to find
And it don't matter to me
If you take up with someone who's better than me
'Cause your happiness is all I want
For you to find peace your piece of mind
Lotta people have an ego hang-up
'Cause they want to be the only one
How many came before it really doesn't matter
Just as long as you're the last
Everybody's moving on and try to find out
What's been missing in the past
It don't matter to me
If your searching brings you back together with me
'Cause there'll always be an empty room waiting for you
An open heart waiting for you, time is on my side
'Cause it don't matter to me
It don't matter to me
It don't matter to me
It don't matter to me
It don't matter to me
'Cause there'll always be, an empty room waiting for you
An open heart waiting for you, time is on my side
'Cause it don't matter to me
1st time hearing this song on video...what an artist.
1971, the year I graduated high school, brought back memories, damn I'm old!
At 67 I still remember!!! Good times in back seat with the honey!!!! 😎😎😎
I’ve always loved this song. In this live version, the bass player is shredding!!!
I think David Gates and Karen Carpenter would have made a really good vocal pairing. It's a shame they never sang together.
Well said!
Charlie yes!!!!!!
That would be too much awesomeness in on moment and our brains would explode. Lol no really their amaing vocalist.
Totally agree..They would have made a duet beyond compare...
Totally agreed.two heavenly voices
1970: this remains my favorite Gates/Bread song. He wrote and arranged it twice; for the first group LP in 1969, and made it slower, lowered the key and added strings when they needed a second single to follow "Make It with You" in 1970. A master singer, songwriter, arranger and conductor. For Debbie; in my mind that room's still there for you, though I know you'll never return. Be at peace.
What a very cool sounds for lovers and friends...
That dude could really sing! He sang soft songs, so our crowd overlooked him back in those days. What a great talent.
Keep telling the very truth about that gentle-power known unto man as David-Gates-and-Bread, dear Colerain-of-Fan.
I listened to Bread during the late 60's & early 70's still love it
Funny thing I lived that song in real life😢❤
This music is beautiful! Amazing David!
The string section behind him is beautiful...and of course his voice too.
David Gates, Gordon Lightfoot, Jim Croce, and America were truly the best of the 70's when it came to storytelling. It was great being a teenager then. Is there anyone who grew up during that time who wouldn't love to go back?
I was always drawn to this song because it was so rare to hear one about a would-be lover with such self-confidence, knowing and believing that time was indeed on his side. Something to aspire to!
We are lucky to be in this generation of best of the best singing/ song writers of this era! Their music is part of our chilhood memories. Thanks to david gates I know how to play guitar because of their music wich I loved the most.! Sad to think we are finite being 😥 wish they stay longer and make more music! But thanks anyway.
Jose, I agree. The 70s was a great time as far as music. 1971, I was 16yrs old and in high school and in love. Two years later I joined the United States Marine Corps in 1973. Again the 70s were great, a 15 yr old in 1970, to a young adult. Semper Fi from an old Marine Sergeant.
I can't get enough of his songs. Too bad today people don't know him.
Grew up in the 70s. I never discovered his work until now. I did hear the popular song from Bread that he wrote with Jimmy Griffin. But, when Meat Loaf passed is when I decided to look who Bread was. David Gates was and is the Bomb. A good family man didn't party all the time like industry people. The same wife, his childhood sweetheart. I respect that. He has an incredible catalogue as well. He's not the eccentric type and show savvy he's not. But,a genius Singer songwriter he is for sure. He is retired I heard. But, he is still with us do far for a reason.
As a huge BREAD fan, ( the greatest soft rock group of ALL time ! ), this is my very favorite and takes me right back to high school ! I would play this song over and over and over.
Happy 80th today, David 🎂
One of the greatest singer/songwriters ever-say no more.
I've listened to David Gates and Bread since the early 1970's. Even today, 2018, still at the top of the list.
Thank dear GOD that the dear David-M-Shelley's taste has always been good.
David Gates i can listen to your Music any time in a day over and over and not getting upset, your the Best David forever.
Pure peace and understanding unto the dear Sid-of-Culoico. We totally get it.
David - Wonderful voice & so handsome. Awesome song. 😊
Absolutely Heart-wrenching 💗💗💗
David Gates. An iconic one of a kind singer and performer/song-writer.
Tell me again that Pop Music is better today then it was back in the day .
Such a brilliantly-put statement that communicates ... 'attention unto what real music eternally sounds like', dear Dave-of-Brewer.
Remember this song from way back. . . .there will always be my ears waiting for him, open heart waiting
Another great tune from the 70's! I was blessed to grow up listening to this music. I'm 61 & I still prefer to listen to 70's music!
I love David Gates because he was such a prolific singer and songwriter of my generation
My favorite Bread song.
Great song by Mr. Gates!
His polyester button down shirt was a staple throughout the 70s. The wilder the colorscape the better!!
My girlfriend back in the late 70's would go home and listen to her Bread album after a fight. I still have a special place in my heart for her. I was an ass and I miss her. Should've never let her go!
This song goes out to Tracy Lynn from me. It's the same age as you, and it's always been yours from my heart ❤️ to yours.... You know who I am deep down inside. You always have.... You got all the way through. No one else has, or ever will.... ✝️=❤️
I can’t express in words how much I appreciate David Gates and bread with his beautiful voice.......what a talent......writing most beautiful songs and singing them as they Matter to the world, not just to me. Thank you David and God bless you and Bread and keep you all safe. You’re turning 80 this year....hard to believe your songs will always make us feel grateful and thankful.......they will go on and on.❤️💞❤️💞❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Dear Nancy-of-Purland has spoken on behalf of all Bread fans throughout the world. Thank you, dear Nancy, for thanking the dear Bread. They deserve it on behalf of all of us.
The fact it does matter makes it even more mysterious. Funny how music can bring you back fifty years in the instant . I wish I could bring them back
Beautiful song Beautiful voice 👍💫🌟☀️💫🌟☀️♥️♥️♥️
One of their best songs!!
i listen to david gates since i was 10 lol still do
WOW! Definitely a heartfelt, timeless song and a great performance.
I have almost 40 years listening to David ever since I was 17, My brother gave me one of the discs. I love this music 🎵♥️.
I believed so much in this song when I was a kid....I tried to use the lyrics to get my parents back together...or, at least talking again. I distinctly remember my mum questioning me, "Do you think I haven't considered all of this before?" I felt a fool and so naive. What she said was true and what David Gates sang was also true.....to an extent. Relationships are more complex than a Bread song yet somehow.....not so beautiful. Gotta hand it to David here. Damn! I LOVE THIS SONG!!
There's no more musicians like the 70s and 80s. It's a shame .
This Song❤ Came out one year later. That FIT of a Very Special Girlfriend. Who I had lost in the Summmer of 1970. I didn't hold on losely. Got to serious to quick. Now in 1971 I was a Senior in high school. I seen Linda in the hall way, and asked Her. If She would sign my year book of 71. She Did. It was very touching to my heart tenderly of what She wrote. This Very Touching Song. Came out in that year and time. STILL HOLDS TRUE. Of This SONG AND LINDA sigh😢 Now being 2024. As Tulsa, Oklahoma was only 16 miles away. From a little town and high school of Kiefer, Oklahoma.
If you aren't tearing up - somethings wrong!!! Bread and Gates are always on my playlist and will forever be.
love you dave gates your great
My favorite all time song by Bread !
👍
I used to dream this song when i was little, i never forgot this song. David Gates and Bread
That guy was gorgeous
Ahh... The 70's.
When classical music instruments are still part of the modern songs of that era.
How I missed that kind of track and performance.
Beautiful voice just beautiful
Beautiful momentos when I was 20 thanks David and Bread, Ibstill habe your vinil record ❤
simply a genius. magnificent. some of the best singers I've ever heard. I love his songs. From brazil
We absolutely hear Mr Brazil called Torquato Beraldo ... we absolutely hear and feel his take of this group.
If there is a God, it would certainly explain why one person was given a voice like that...to make the world a better place.
there is and yes David was gifted
Bobby Wolfe ...there
is.
God's always watching and listening.
Don't ever doubt that.
@@patkaczmarek7362 i needed to hear that. I burst into tears. Damn....
And yes...God can give a voice such as that of David Gates
Beautiful song!! Great voice!!!
The resolution at the end of each chorus----- ".....empty room, waiting for you; and open arms, waiting for you; (then that) time.........is on my side...." LIT-ER-AL-LY puts me back in 1970.
Must have been a great time! Great cars, great music, great people and most of that 70s style! No wonder you feel like heading back
