One of the most underrated and incredible male vocalists of all-time. Before he blew out his vocal cords battling John Lennon in some contest, this guy was phenomenal.

Yes , amazing Nilsson. Great musician, RIP.
Harry defined "Legend" and will never die.
Harry's greatness still comes through !! R.I.P. Harry
Miss this man sooooooooooo damn much! As in such poor health at this point in his life and his voice not in form, he gave it all! Thank you so very much for this historic space in time. Give Peace A Chance - ultimate goosebumps. RIP John and Harry.
Miss you Harry. Was so great being able to talk with you and seeing you perform from 81 to 93, at the LA Beatlefest
brave and vulnerable performance . It shows how passionate he was about ending gun violence and how much Jons death affected him

Yeah, I’m guessing he didn’t much hang with Ted Nugent.
Thank you for sharing this . i couldn't stop crying . its NILSSON !
IMHO he was up there with the great songwriters and singers. That voice in the late 60s and early 70s
“In 1974 things would forever change for Nilsson. During a late-night party and jam session Nilsson and Lennon engaged in a screaming match to see which one could out do the other. In the process, Nilsson irreversibly ruptured a vocal cord. He chose to keep that information from Lennon in fear that the Liverpudlian would put a stop to the production of the album Pussy Cats, which they had been collaborating on.
When I hear this performance of Without you, my heart just sinks. ❤😢 RIP Harry, Harry, Harry….what has become of you? My heart is heavy and my eyes are full of sorrow…to see you like this. God bless!
My favorite song of all time!
He sang it. Thats what they wanted. God bless him
Thank you for posting 🤘🤠❤️
Harry was a very unique talent who took chances and created some memorable music. Unfortunately, he also was a well-known party animal. Rest in peace, Harry.
Thank you for sharing this amazing video of Harry
A classic hard to hold back the tears
He survived another two years after this. Well done, sir!

A giant as songwriter (The Monkees), his own hits and two wonderful, timeless albums of the all-time great songs from 30's-40's-50's.

From Google translate "Glad to hear Harry sing the second version of this song in person"
Really think if he was able to live into the 2000s or 2010s he would have def gotten to touring. This is the closest thing to live that he did in many ways. He’s so missed

Message from JImmy Buffett who just left "BUBBLES UP" THX YOU TWO GOATS Never knew who wrote these treasures. what got me here was Jimmy Buffet who in an interview with his daughter JIMMY expressed his deep admiration of Harry Somtimes on this trashed planet angels are sent in but this low level planet takes a toll on these higher level creative beings and they fall into the Quagmire of the mess we lower level beings have created on this third world planet. Harry happy to hear and see you even after the toll this dark planet has taken on you but You came in to mission immposible and added tons of light RiP you did what could Thanks for the help Harry RIP. God speed on your cosmic journey out of this dump.God bless Not your fault. Only JESUS!!!!!

You damaged his voice with drink and drugs over the years god bless him. Legend 👍❤️🇬🇧

He sounded incredibly good here, considering how badly he damaged his voice in the mid 1970's. That first verse of "Without You" in particular sounded damn good.
Oh dear.
So sad how Harry threw it all away. Until the accident that blew his vocal chords he was the most incredible singer I ever heard. Right up there with Elvis for originality and sound. He also wrote some great songs including a bunch of hits for da Monkees!.

Very sad
I love Harry, I really do but I think he had chutzpah in spades to perform. It wasn't good.
You can tell here that his voice is still intact but as usual Harry is drunk which is probably why he is off key
Love you Harry. Awful recording
Painfully vulnerable, as always
So sad. "Without You" WAS his song. Yes, his voice is still recognizable, but barely. So pathetic the way this great man sends his voice randomly wandering around attempting to find the right pitch before sadly leaving it. His sickness is evident in this video, and we understand why this has become his last appearance before his untimely death. Kids, stay off booze or this will happen to you too.

As someone who grew up listening to Nilsson from a very young age, this is very sad to listen to. Here, Harry sounds like your average drunken guy doing karaoke on a Wednesday night at the neighborhood tavern.
Why was he wearing sunglasses? Why did he want to hide his eyes? Hopefully, he wasn't on drugs. Generally, that's the reason why well-known people wear sunglasses.
