Make Me Smile (Come Up and See Me) by Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel was a UK number 1 hit on Saturday, February 22, 1975 spending 2 week(s) at the top of the UK charts. This was written as a riposte when the original lineup of Cockney Rebel walked out on Steve Harley. The song tells the story of the first incarnation of the band. When he performed the song on Top Of The Pops, although the instrumental backing was mimed, Harley performed a live vocal and promptly forgot most of the second and third verses. The acoustic, flamenco-styled guitar solo was originally a soundcheck warm-up that was captured on tape and later used when it was realized it added to the song.
