Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel – Make me Smile (Come up and see me) #rock #music #musicreaction #pop #glamrock #polio #70s #70smusic Today we’re going to have a ‘Butcher’s’ at a song from January 1975 (50 years ago this month) by Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel, called Make me smile (come up and see me). I’ll come back to why I used the term ‘Butcher’s’ at the end. Formed in the early 1970s, Cockney Rebel were an English Rock band fronted by and founded by Steve Harley. I wanted to cover this track, although it’s not the first hit by Cockney Rebel, but it’s one that they are probably most known for and to celebrate its 50th anniversary and to commemorate Steve Harley who sadly died in 2024, as a young boy he was hospitalised with Polio but he survived. The track was covered by a number of bands, but Steve Harley reportedly liked the version in 1990 by The Wedding Present the best Cockney is a dialect of English and is also used to describe a group of people from the East End of London. Traditionally, to be a cockney you had to be born within earshot of Bow Bells; these were the bells of the Church of St Mary-le-Bow which is in Cheapside The Church also features in a traditional English nursery rhyme, Oranges and Lemons – I do not know, says the great bell at Bow. Now to come back to saying ‘We’re going to have a butcher’s’ this is from the famous cockney rhyming slang – not much used these days, but some of words/phrases have crept in to modern day language. Butcher’s hook = look. What happens is that just the first word of the rhyming slang is used, for example Ruby = Curry (Ruby Murray = Curry), China = mate (China plate = mate), loaf = head (loaf of bread = head), and for any Americans, septic = yank (septic tank = yank) Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel – Make Me Smile (Come up and see me)    • Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel - Make Me Smile   Make Me Smile – The Wedding Present    • Wedding Present - Make Me Smile (Come Up A...   BBC Short Documentary    • Steve Harley   One Show   Documentary   Ma...   This video is intended to inform, educate and entertain.
