I love George Carlin and Leo Sayer. Does anyone not recognize George? My hero!!!

[Summer-kbdm]

Deep respect for Leo Sayer. Heartbreaking song.

[TheLeadSled]

No one can say the man can't sing, love that raspy voice

[billyc]

This is the same dude who did, long tall glasses, when I need you, you make me feel like dancing.

[wilcox]

Theatricality at its finest! Sayer was quite honestly a pioneer.

[haldosprime]

I keep looking up videos of this song and it’s never the same twice. The man finds a new hook each time.

The main thing I love about this YT channel is discovering performances I never saw. I honestly didn't know Leo Sayer wrote and performed this before Three Dog Night's version. I still love their take on the song, but Leo hit this out of the park- great voice, great theater.

[mosskey]

Theres been one live version of this song that ive watched for years until now. Thank you!

[ErnieWilber-bf]

Wow, so very cool to see a clip of the late great George Carlin, and to also see Leo Sayer on this show doing his thing as well!!! I'm a huge fan of both from those days!!! (Ernie Wilber) 🤟🥲🤟✌️

[leokimvideo]

Wow, never seen this before, just loved the puppet

[markpostowka]

There are a few different versions of this song, and he puts his heart and soul into each one, incredible!! First saw 5his as a little kid, and I really thought i would never see it again. It was way better than I remember. Thank you Leo!!

THAT INCREDIBLE SOUL VOICE, JUST GIVIN' ME SHIVERS DOWN ME SPINE !

[dotdominy]

1st time heard Leo Sayer was in the early 70s, loved him since.

[RayRay]

Brilliant. Can't stop watching. Been so there. 😅

[InFamousProductions]

He was legend. and he could have been the Joker in the Batman films. such a great song writer and singer.

[chicoplateado]

Wow! so versatile ...! considering his voice in "you make me feel like dancing" ... love him!

[wonsworld]

Silverbird (1973) and Just a Boy (1974) are two of my fave albums of all time. Sensational singer/songwriter styled albums (Sayer and Producer/Pianist David Courtney)

[Nikki]

I owned and loved the Three Dog Night version back then and it's still my favorite version. They changed the last line to "I must let the show go on". Leo hated that. Lol.

Love this song and Leo does it so well. Thanks for sharing.
