Some kind individual has uploaded the elusive studio version of "When I'm with You" onto YouTube yesterday:



Steve released this single in 1989, in effort to promote The Comeback: All Is Forgiven tour. It seems to be one of the most difficult SH/CR releases to track down, and the studio version of this song has not surfaced anywhere else since.

This is GREAT to hear! Well spotted...
Can't wait until the next Steve Harley Single, 'Ordinary People' - bring it on Radio 2!

Thanks AJ.A great single.Very rare these days to find.Steve sang it live on Sky TV with a house band when it was released in 1989.Should have been a monster!!

Same here Matt - I've seen the good feedback the song has received from being performed live, and I have no doubt that the studio version will be something to look forward to.

Thanks for the info Stewart, I didn't realise it was ever performed on TV (always presumed the single to be something of a "low key" release). Perhaps it will appear on YouTube one day. I do enjoy the studio version, but I think the 1989 live recording of the track from Brighton/Northampton is the definitive one.

I love this song and I wish he would play it at his concerts. The only version I've seen is from the "Come Back All is Forgiven" tour. It's a great song and I've always wondered why Steve doesn't ever bring it back in his live shows.
