This would have to be in my opinion the most beautiful song 🎵 ever written

Agree. I've heard this song thousands of times. Still gives me chills.😂😂
Everybody’s talking at me. My favorite.
Another of the great singer/songwriters of the '70s. Some other Nilsson classics are "The Lord Must Be in New York City", "Everybody's Talkin", "Jump into the Fire", "Coconut", "Spaceman."

A Badfinger cover. And this is one of the most emotional songs ever. And beautiful.

He didnt write this song. Pete Ham and Tom Evans did. They wound up both committing suicide,sadly.
"Jump into the fire" and " Coconut" are both great.
He was able to convey so much emotion with his voice, without sounding like he was screeching and without auto tune.
Since you recently listened to Three Dog Night doing his song “One”, you now need to listen to Harry singing it.
One of our brilliant musicians,passed way too soon. What a voice
I've always loved this song. But it's understandable you don't want to hear about heartbreak ALL the time. So for a change of pace go for "Lime In The Coconut". Also by Harry Nilsson. Just some lighthearted fun.
Love this song. Powerful ❤
Harry is deep rabbit hole worth going down!!!
Great song, great artist, one of the best songs ever written and Harry’s version is the best
I LOVE, LOVE LOVE this song. Harry was a very talented singer/songwriter, however, I seem to recall that this was written by some one else, maybe Badfinger? Harry sings this with so much soul and feeling. Other good songs: Jump into the Fire, Everybody's Talking, Me and My Arrow. When you are ready for another BEAUTIFUL song about losing love, please check out the late great Gordon Lightfoot's classic "If You Could Read My Mind", another one of my favorites. Don't forget the "schlyrics" as the lyrics are pure poetry....

Harry Nilsson is a rabbit hole you must explore. Eclectic doesn't even describe him. You won't be disappointed. Fan of his for 50 years.❤❤
The strange thing about breakups is, you could live just fine before you met them, but being put back in that same situation of living without them after the fact, seems like torture. It's all freakin mental. They don't define you, and they never did.
"Without You" is a song written by Pete Ham and Tom Evans of British rock group Badfinger, and first released on their 1970 album No Dice. The power ballad has been recorded by over 180 artists, and versions released as singles by Harry Nilsson (1971), T. G. Sheppard (1983) and Mariah Carey (1994) became international best-sellers. The Nilsson version was included in 2021's Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. Paul McCartney once described the ballad as "the killer song of all time". (Wikipedia)
Nilsson is a good to dive into - check out “You’re Breakin’ my Heart”, a very different vibe!,,

Nilsson's song AT MY FRONT DOOR should have put him in the ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME.
You are on a roll today. Some wonderful classics! "but in your eyes, your sorrow shows" Unrequited love is tough. Listen to Bonnie Raitt singing "I Can't Make You Love Me". Devastating song performed beautifully.
At one time, the Beatles considered Nilsson the best contemporary voice in music. Of course, they were drinking buddies with him. He did not perform his music publicly.

John Lennon is the one who encouraged the music studios to pay attention to Harry Nilsson. He wrote so many great songs but really didn't want to perform in public (hence the album cover with him wearing a ragged bathrobe on the album Nilsson Schmillson). His music and voice, fantastic. :) I first heard his music in the 1970's on the radio. My then teenage boyfriend bought me that album and I was blown away. :)
Great vocals on this one! And yes, Harry Nilsson is a great singer songwriter worth going down the rabbit hole!
Next song by Harry would be “Jump Into The Fire” 🔥

Originally written and recorded by Badfinger, but Nilsson made it his own and it became an iconic song. Hauntingly beautiful! I had this album when I was a teen and wore it out on my record player. Imagine being a pre-teen or young teenager and listening to this song for the first time! 😊🎶❤

Great song! Heart did a cover of this, fantastic!
One of the most beautiful songs ever written
The Lime and the Coconut should be next by him!!!
Actually written by members of the band Badfinger, who recorded it first. Nilsson made it a hit and later Mariah Carey covered it!
Maybe you'd like just a fun song from him "Coconut"
“You’re breaking my heart”…next…KZread might…
Harry does a great version of the old classic, "How About You?", that was featured in the Robin Williams movie, "The Fisher King"...
Listen to his song, Jump Into The Fire.
He put that down in one take. That's how good Nilsson was. He was famous for it. He'd show up, sing it once and go home.
Great song originally by Badfinger Pete Ham and Tom Evans who wrote this song both committed suicide
"Jump Into The Fire" 🔥🔥🔥
...and he won the Grammy for this too: "Best Pop Vocal Performance - MALE"
This man can BLOW❤
Nilsson was a good friend of John Lennon. Has several fantastic albums. I like son of schmillson
One of my favorites! Thanks!
The cover photo was taken at Nilsson's house. He was supposed to be ready for a shoot but had just gotten up. If you look closely, he has a hash pipe in his left hand. The photographer didn't notice till years later.
"Without You" was one of the major pop ballads of the seventies. It definitely inspired Barry Manilow. Harry Nilsson was eclectic in the styles of music he recorded, maybe too much because many of his hits were as different from each other as they were from the hits by other artists. For contrast check out "Coconut" or "Jump Into The Fire" -- fun groovy tunes -- and for some continuity, check out "Everybody's Talkin'" or "Me and My Arrow" -- more mellow tunes.
Catalog? Oh hell yes. This is a fantastic cover of a great Badfinger song.
Harry Nilsson's life story is fascinating. Grew up dirt poor in NYC tenements with a single mother. Dropped out of school and went to work as a computer programmer in a bank. He did music on the side, gaining attention first as a songwriter. But he had a voice like no other. He was a creative genius and somehow earned enough cred to call his own shots in the music business. He didn't want to tour to support his albums so he didn't. Still got paid. It's ironic that he is known best for covers like this and Everybody's Talkin' when he was one of the truly great songwriters himself. He lived a sad life and died before his time from heart disease.
Harry was great. Jump Into the Fire is pure fire.
This song was originally written for a Filipina singer & the title was “ Ken Lee “ & it’s only on KZread . Neillson owned the deadest apartment in rock & roll . He loaned it out to Keith moon the drummer for The Rolling Stones & he was found dead in the bed . Later he loaned it to Mama Cass & she was also found dead in the same room

Just for fun, Lime in the Coconut. Loved this man.
Harry didn't want to sing the lyric 'But I guess that's just the way the story goes.' He had a small argument with the producer (Richard Perry), went across the street to a bar and had one or two. Then he came back and nailed it in one take. He was my very favorite when I was in college, and I drove my roommates nuts with this music. BTW, he blew out his angelic voice. For three or four albums you could barely tell it was him singing. But his last RCA record was excellent.
This was one of my favorites, such a beautiful song! Great selection!
Nilsson sang the theme song to The Courtship of Eddie’s Father.
Twofold: the GREATEST love song ever written & a performance in the top ten greatest ever male vocals. The public hate a break up but love a great break up love song. Harry, thank you dude!

Actually, it isn't about losing a loved one. Its a song where the singer is revealing how much someone means to him after seeing his loved one hurt by his indifference. Pete Hamm wrote the verse after a real-life moment with his wife but that verse was all he had. Tom Evans had a chorus but no song. At the end of the No Dice recording sessions, Badfinger needed another song to fill out the side. They melded the two snippets together as a throw away filler song. Harry Nilsson heard the song and recognized the potential. His arrangement became the iconic version.

Hi biz .. Harry,s “you’re breaking my heart “ please
Great vocals! Some other hits are Everybody's Talkin', Jump Into the Fire and Coconut
Selfish of him? He say's "It's only fair that I should let you know, what you should know". Theoretically, if you love someone, you should let them know how you feel. It's not always that simple though.
Harry Nilsson was a complicated person with a once-in-a-generation vocal talent for a male artist. He was extremely smart, extremely generous to others and struggled with a tragic childhood, substance abuse, and heavy smoking. His early works with Pandamonium Shadow Show and Aerial Ballet were only a glimpse of his natural talent. He recorded his own backing vocals and harmonies. He helped artist Randy Newman get a start by making the album Nilsson Sings Newman, telling Randy to just record the piano and he would do the rest. "I'll Be Home" is a good track from that record. kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZoOWlrJ_fLyzcZc.html Nilsson-Schmilsson got him the Grammy and "The Moonbeam Song" is a hidden gem from the record, with his great backing vocals: kzread.info/dash/bejne/aYOI29eFmpy4oLw.html He could also whistle like a songbird and you can hear this on "Little Cowboy (Reprise)." kzread.info/dash/bejne/lHthlZVmidezYZM.html Harry did not like to perform live but he sat down alone in a BBC studio and recorded a TV special with some fun and camera tricks. If you watch him perform "Life Line" from the special you can understand why people who knew him were sometimes stunned into silence by his singing. kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y4dtwbh7gt3On84.html The story of Harry Nilsson was told very well in the documentary "Who Is Harry Nilsson and Why is Everyone Talking About Him?" It is very revealing and very sad at the same time.

We never had schlyrics hearing these songs on the radio, and that's fortunate for us -- we got to listen without the distraction of trying to read as we go, as if that really freakin matters for first time listening. This is a broken generation.
Jump in the fire; long version 🤘❤️
You're breaking My Heart is a fun one...

Check out You’re Breaking My Heart!
You're always doing great songs that I haven't heard in a long time,and truthfully had pretty much forgotten about. That's a big reason why I really enjoy your channel. That,and that I like your personality 😉
Try " Jump into the Fire " :)
Lime in the Coconut.
This song was a 'Badfinger' song but Harry Nilsson's version is stupendous as you can feel every emotion. The Mariah Carey version which most people know cannot hold a candle to this fabulous version as I find hers very shrill.
Lime in the Coconut please
And now for something completely different , you should listen to Harry sing "Coconut".
I think this song was written by the Badfinger group members.

I can start living now that she’s gone.
A friend of john lennon hes worth it
There was great tunes like this in the early and mid 70s. Truly great music, unfortunately, it ushered in the more upbeat of disco....😢. There was no bridge between black sabbath and this kind of music. In that time, not everyone was a metal head...they just wanted something upbeat and happy.

One of John Lennon's best buds in LA. IMO there isn't a bad song on this album but my personal favorite has always been Jump Into the Fire or maybe Gotta Get Up or maybe....
The two men who wrote this song were part of badfinger group sadly they both killed themselves.
Before even hearing this I can tell you his version in Spanish is every bit as gut wrenching. kzread.info/dash/bejne/lXWXxbGYcqe-Zbg.html I had the version you are playing throughout high school and college. Just beautiful, no matter what kind of music you prefer.
Should you look into Nilsson's catalog? What's "The Point"? Inside joke that to understand requires looking into his catalog.
This song always made me cringe, when I hear someone actually saying they can't live without someone. This is someone who would be best left alone. Anyone who says that their relationship changed suddenly is someone who is self absorbed and living in the illusion of a relationship
Mariah Carey covered this song....
