Make Me Smile (Come Up & See Me) Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel Cover

Описание: Hope you enjoy this one which has guest vocals on it from Colleen.
Tried to keep it quite faithful to the original classic.
"Make Me Smile (Come Up and See Me)" is a song by the English rock band Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel, released on 31 January 1975 by EMI as the lead single from the band's third studio album The Best Years of Our Lives. The song was written by Harley, and produced by Harley and Alan Parsons. In February 1975, the song reached number one on the UK chart and spent nine weeks in the Top 50. It has sold over 1.5 million copies worldwide as of 2015 and received a platinum certification from the British Phonographic Industry in November 2024. The song is one of the most-played songs in British broadcasting history.

More than 120 cover versions of the song have been recorded by other artists, most notably by Duran Duran and Erasure, although Harley stated his favourite cover version was by the Wedding Present. @steveharley

You've done it all
You've broken every code
And pulled the rebel to the floor
You spoiled the game
No matter what you say
For only metal, what a bore
Blue eyes, blue eyes
How come you tell so many lies?
Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
There's nothing left
All gone and run away
Maybe you'll tarry for a while
It's just a test
A game for us to play
Win or lose, it's hard to smile
Resist, resist
It's from yourself you have to hide, oh
Come up and see me to make me smile
Oh, or do what you want, running wild
There ain't no more
You've taken everything
From my belief in Mother Earth
Can you ignore
My faith in everything?
'Cause I know what faith is and what it's worth
Away, away
And don't say maybe you'll try
Oh, to come up and see me, to make me smile
Or do what you want, just running wild
Ooh, la la la
Ooh, la la la
Ooh
Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
Ooh, la la la
Ooh, la la la
Ooh
Come up and see me to make me smile
