Giving It All Away - Roger Daltrey - I was just a boy

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.

[MrDenzil]

Legend, I was born in 61 remember all the classics how lucky we was,

[douglasmartin]

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

[karentillett]

This stands out, one of the songs johnnie walker played today on his last show 😢❤

[MrDenzil]

Best version is him and Leo singing it together ❤️

[raychambers]

There is a duet of this song with Roger and Leo, absolutely brilliant .

[johnnynewton]

Great vocals, we should all cherish the great singers of the 70's, like us they're getting old

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 ❤

[georgessiam]

No song has so many twist and turns, it's a masterpiece

[christopherhayhoe]

Russ Ballard on lead, Bob Henrit on drums, wow !! amazing,

[willmeredith]

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.

[chuckweidemann]

Simple, powerful, only gets better and more meaningful.

[drend]

I was 17 when this was released and had just broken up with my first love. Memories flooding

[karenjames]

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

[broomy]

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

[TheYorkshireDigger]

@1:40 you can hear the passion in his voice he really sings it with such force, superb.

[colinrunciman]

Roger, was brillant at this, believe writen by Leo sayay

[RoyMeadway-ldzp]

It's worth being old now, to have been young then.

[adamcastleton]

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
