Steve Harley
Lead singer of 1970s glam rock band 'Cockney Rebel'. After 3 of the 5 founding members walked out because of some dispute or another, Harley changed the name to 'Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel' in 1975. With this, the band had a number one single with 'Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me)', which has been covered 130 times since. However, the band also has some phenomenal songs such as 'Death Trip', 'Mr Soft', and 'Sebastian'. He was notorious for an almost-arrogant stance in the 1970s but this has worn off with time, and, despite being 69, he still plays over 60 live dates per year, many in an acoustic format.
Did you hear that Steve Harley, out of Cockney Rebel, has just been caught speeding and fined £1000. Let's all download 'Come Up And See Me Make Me Smile' to help him pay it off. Everyone loves that song, you can't trust someone who doesn't like that song.
