The New Seekers were a brilliant group. They could all sing and harmonise & those of us of a certain age will remember the good old days when we were young & foolish. 👍👍
Peter Doyle did truly have an amazing vocal range and how cruel that he developed throat cancer. God bless you Peter - you were one of my favourite singers of the early 70s!
This is a first for me. I'm exploring all the different tunes. Harmony, nicely dressed women, all in all clean music. Women not caked in war paint-all a big "YES."
I was a kid back in 1972.. My folks and I were camping on Martha's Vineyard.. And one day, we went to a park were these people were practicing for that 's night open air festivities.. It was this very song they sang.. To be that kid and back to a simpler time..
My first childhood crush, Eve Graham. Loved this group, joined their fan club and saw them in concert twice. They're don't make 'em like this anymore, beautiful harmonies, it was never the same after Peter Doyle leaving.
Modern groups should watch this the voices and harmanys live are so good no screeching or yelling, and no near naked bodies on display, if you're got talent you dont need to.
My Heart ❤️ will forever belong to Lynn PAUL 💙 ❤️. She's the epitome of the 1970s WOMEN whom I greatly adore and miss so much in 2022. If only I could return to 1973 + , thank you Lord .❤️❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧
Those five voices make great harmonies. Here in the 21st century they've become one of my favourite pop groups. I remember them from 'back in the day' bu thanks to modern technology we can enjoy them again.
These songs and their performance are so sincerely presented that it suspends all the cynical grime of these 'modern' times. Thank you for the music...Consider yourself subscribed!
I had a huge crush on Pete Doyle! But he was an item with Lyn Paul and I was 12! Haha. The first band I ever saw live, They were playing Brum Odéon and my mom got tickets for my birthday. She took me to Lyons Corner House over the road (Gods, how old am I?) and we were upstairs so we coud see the side entrance to the Odéon. We saw 2 big black cars pull up and the band get out. My mom said "You were so excited!" Then I discovered Hawkwind and it was bye bye New Seekers and Mr Doyle, hello Lemmy! Strangely my mother never took me to Hawkwind gigs or bought me tea beforehand!
Marvellous song choices in the army years of the group's greatest success. I know they were w constructed group by a management business but the entertainment that the partnership produced..still sound fantastic to me
Eautiful song I have only really got to know the New Seekers over the last 6 years. Although I met Peter Doyle when he was in The GO!!SHOW Melbourne pop show in '65. Always liked him so now with the internet been able to see all these great videos and get to love their music. I've been collecting their albums too. And through Facebook met some wonderful friends from UK USA I was also fortunately able to see Peter Doyle perform live in Melbourne again 1987 - 1998.
thank you for posting this song, when i was a small girl this used to be my favourite song it then took on a different meaning as it was in the charts at the same time as the BA air crash at staines and i live very close to heathrow near where it happend, every time i hear it now i think of those people who died that day and dedicate it to there memory xx
Just got out of hospital for the second time 1972 and sat with Eva and Mari and Inga Maria and Tracey parks wondering when my next seizure will be from anaphylaxis and chemical drug and medication allergies! I did a real to reel recording of this song. Age 3.
The 'New Seekers' re-invention worked. They deserved the success they achieved. Judith Durham was always going to be a hard act to follow but both Lyn & Eve were great on lead vocals.
chapin had a live album with a killer version as well- great song and this crew does it excellent..I have to pull THIS album out soon and listen to it all.
Superb. This album contained a cardboard Albert Hall stage that you could set up for no obvious purpose other than to keep you quiet for half an hour. An early Seventies childhood was largely characterised by cardboard cutout 'Fold Tab A through Slot C and attach to Part D with a drawing pin' type projects, typically on the back of cereal boxes.
Beautiful girls and great group.marking of de 70,s,celestials voices and integrans professionals.youre are diplomatics of the peace in the world,forever...
What i don't get is why the New Seekers don't get radio play on Gold , Absolute 70s and My music radio ? they must be run by arse bandits or summat !!!

My mid teens & these songs bring back so many memories
Eve Graham, wow I still love her.
I was a kid back in 1972.. My folks and I were camping on Martha's Vineyard.. And one day, we went to a park were these people were practicing for that 's night open air festivities.. It was this very song they sang.. To be that kid and back to a simpler time..
I was 12 when this came out. I loved it so much. A story of life and death in that we live lives over and over.
I was also 12 loved the music then
Eve Graham is just beautiful lady, I wish that I had met up with her 😢 years ago, xxx
I did mate. Delivered her milk when I was about 10 or 11. Had serious crush even then.😍😍😍
Did not appreciate at the time how talented Eve Graham was, she is very underated
My first childhood crush, Eve Graham. Loved this group, joined their fan club and saw them in concert twice.
They're don't make 'em like this anymore, beautiful harmonies, it was never the same after Peter Doyle leaving.
Agreed re PD and he was my first (and only) childhood crush ;)
Modern groups should watch this the voices and harmanys live are so good no screeching or yelling, and no near naked bodies on display, if you're got talent you dont need to.
Eve Graham, is a wonderful girl with a beautiful voice. I really 💘 love her xxx
Eve graham is quite possibly perfect here, beautiful vocally and on the eye. Still gorgeous.
Couldn't have said it better myself.
Agreed, Eve and Sally Carr from Middle of the Road were 2 of my crushes when I was a young teen
My Heart ❤️ will forever belong to Lynn PAUL 💙 ❤️. She's the epitome of the 1970s WOMEN whom I greatly adore and miss so much in 2022.
If only I could return to 1973 + , thank you Lord .❤️❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧
to everyone listening to this beautiful song...peace and love.
Love this song. Beautiful lyrics. Great vocals. Was a fan of TNS in the 70s.
Let's go round 1 more time 🎶😘
I t is a beautuful song.Written by Harry Chapin.
If only we could!
Very lovely. Such a WHOLESOME band. I love Marty's stage outfit in this performance!
Those five voices make great harmonies.
Here in the 21st century they've become one of my favourite pop groups. I remember them from 'back in the day' bu thanks to modern technology we can enjoy them again.
I love this song, so many memories of my childhood with my mum and dad. I miss them so much and this songs brings it all back. God bless
Talented band, beautiful voices especially Peter Doyle R.I.P❤ and Eve , the years keep roling .....OMG
They had some good songs and I used to fancy Eve when I was 12 she was very attractive. They all were tbh.
Eve Graham is sooooooo adorable and so very talented
I agree with you
She is the kind that makes a man glad to have sight
Moses Sofer
exactly! :-)
Miss Graham sings this beautifully
These songs and their performance are so sincerely presented that it suspends all the cynical grime of these 'modern' times. Thank you for the music...Consider yourself subscribed!
Marty Kristian knew how to rock his clothes. Wow! Just wow! He should have been a model.
Couldn’t agree more
Eve Graham, wow I loved her when this song first came out and I love her still.
Just wonderful. So great memories rolling by !!!!!
I've learnt in life my life is a circle, what never ended comes around again to resolve, beautiful song very true and very real
Loved TNS since the 70s, They were a great group and Peter Doyle had the most amazing voice and vocal range.

Shelagh Moore thanks for sharing
@@shelaghmoore445 I saw them at Birmingham Town Hall, it was after Peter Doyle left though, great vocalist
Eve Graham has a great singing voice
Thank you Harry Chapin for such a great song!!!!
R.I.P PETER DOYLE WERE MY IDOL AND THE NEW SEEKERS YOU HAD A AMZING PETER YOU AND LYN WERE MY FAVOURITES WITH EVE
They really did have great productions with voices that blended perfectly. I like them much better now than I did at the time for some odd reason.
Very special song to our family
I waited 41 years to see this concert ... wow .... worth the wait? ... Yes
One of my favourite songs ever
Marvellous song choices in the army years of the group's greatest success. I know they were w constructed group by a management business but the entertainment that the partnership produced..still sound fantastic to me

What a wonderful performance by all five of them.
peter doyle stirs my soul....and eve..
Even Paul McCartney was impressed wth her vacal range and voice
Lovely Eve Graham
RIP - Peter Doyle - voice of an angel.
I am back again, love it.

Wow, BRILLIANT - better even the original I think, by Harry Chapin of course.
And Eve........glorious.
Miss Graham is beautiful.
Just got out of hospital for the second time 1972 and sat with Eva and Mari and Inga Maria and Tracey parks wondering when my next seizure will be from anaphylaxis and chemical drug and medication allergies! I did a real to reel recording of this song. Age 3.
Timeless!!
The 'New Seekers' re-invention worked.

Judith Durham was always going to be a hard act to follow but both Lyn & Eve were great on lead vocals.
diffent group, i think,
@@alangreenley3257 one member in common, at least early on... group was started by Keith Potger...
I played that album until it was worn out! Marty Kristian knew how to dress! Fabulous.
I had Marty’s picture on my bedroom wall…..oh the memories
@@hattalis29 i STILL DO
I have this on vinyl and dvd..just brilliant
I love this song
always said she was lovely
Hare Krishna Hare krishna Krishna krishna hare hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare Hare Hare!!!!!❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊💎🤔🤨😐😶😶🙄🤩🤗🙂☺😚😙😗😏😶😶😑🤨🤨🤔💎

I remember that cardboard cut out too!
This still brings me real happiness!
I remember the cardboard stage as well, I still have the album... wish I had kept the cardboard stage safely...
Wonderful!
Probably the first woman I had a crush on....when I was ten !
fab record
Beautiful girls and great group.marking of de 70,s,celestials voices and integrans professionals.youre are diplomatics of the peace in the world,forever...
Whata great performance, better than the recording.
New seekers had a lot of good singles.
I used to have this on Vinyl - I think it was on the red Polydor label if my memory serves me right
yes it was.
I wonder where they're all now x
Peter returned to Australia, but died way too young from cancer.
Just watch the 7" with headphones, wonderful at the beginning, when it turns left to right and vice versa.
What i don't get is why the New Seekers don't get radio play on Gold , Absolute 70s and My music radio ? they must be run by arse bandits or summat !!!
agree.
Listen to Gold every day and they play more Rolling Stones than any other artist they don’t seem to play many’s songs like this
Cute face and great looking
Great, but why are other songs disappearing from TH-cam? Nickel Song and I'm a nut to name just two?
It is red Polydor
A Harry Chapin song.
Yer man was no dozer on the bass,
Harry Chapin song.....
yes I have a confession,i too had a schoolboy crush on eve graham L OL
With hindsight, he probably regrets those fringed sleeves.
cricketbat09 in 1972 I had a fringe !! I was 12 , 47 years later all gone !😥😥
One of the best hits of the New seekers, Eve Graham is so strong, and sounds great on Lead Vocal. The Voice of the New Seekers.
Harry Chapin must be turning in his grave .
