Thank you. The world seems to be letting us down but not so. God is with each and everyone of us.
Too much sadness. Haunting lyrics of a song that touched my ♥️at a very early age. A no d then my dad died leaving my 65 year old mom to get through her 9 tensing years. 😥
Thank you so much
@@shelleykrier7417 I outgrew religious fairy tales long ago and joined reality ........
a brighter side ☀
2024, anyone?
Me April 2024😊
Me from Spain
Absolutely. This is my favorite version
April 2024
No not me in 2024
Was 13 yrs. old in '71 when this song came out.... Didn't realize I'd be 65 and alone as I am today. Sad that my happiest years 60's-70's are gone..... but BLESSED to have grown up in that era and hearing songs like this as they were being played on the radio....
well you are not alone someone care for you...
me too
I was two years, but I discovered him when I was 10 and I loved him
Wish you happiness❤
I hear you! In the same boat.. How lucky we were though
"In my hour of need, I truly am indeed alone again naturally" That hits.
I am alone again after my wife passed last year, after so many years of Marriage. I heard this song again, that we listened to back in the 70s when we were teens, and all those memories from then just came flooding back. I smile and think of the good times we had. I miss you like crazy Sharon, but i will always carry you in my heart. I love you. xxxxxxx
same here my friend, my wife passed 10 years ago + I miss her so much + as a result I've been walking this lonely journey alone since, I try to act like id like to at least get back in the dating game but it's been 27 years since I was blessed with a almost perfect wife, my deepest condolences about your wife, she must be a special lady + thank God that he gave you her for the time you did have her

Rick Bland i dont know why i passed by here listening songs of my uncle and mother back in the days. Your message here caught me thinking for the future. i am 34 by now
I feel your pain. I lost my wife 37 years ago. I miss her as much today as I did the day she died. You never get over something like that; you just learn to cope. I hope all of my friends here have learned as I have. You have had special ladies in your life that nothing can replace. I have great comfort in my children, my step children and my grand children. May you all have the happiness I have in my life now.
I can honestly say that growing up in the 70's we had an ocean of great music on the radio all the time.
Amen to that. REAL music created by REAL songwriters and played by REAL musicians.
The songs nowadays are always just generic pop songs, it’s getting annoying
100% true.
@@Archalias100 yes and also they have lots of swear words
Listen to this 40 yes ago I was alone then and I am now love 💘the song 🎵❤
The day I laid my mom to rest, pulling out from the cemetery this song came on. I cried and cried the entire time. I will never forget the love my parents had, but now they are together.
"Cried and cried all day" what a coincidence in the timing of this song to come on. Sorry for your loss 🙏
@@Bizzare-ud2wl thank you.
Take it easy bro hope you are doing up ❤
May 5, 2024 My wife passed on April 3. I still can't believe she's gone. She was such a sweetheart. I would like to join her in Heaven but I can't go yet. Too much stuff to sell on ebay so our two daughters don't have to deal with it. We were married 52 years. Alone again!
Thoughts with you ,bless you and family ,may she r i p ❤
@@johnwrench164 🙏🙏
I'm so so sorry of your loss.
Dale tiempo al tiempo, desdé Santiago del Chile, un abrazo y bendiciones 🙏 para acompañar tu dolor, hermano, un abrazo para ti 🙏🇨🇱🌹
Wow! 52 years of happiness! So sorry for your loss!! Your wonderful wife will always be in your heart, and be looking down from heaven!!!😢😢❤
My girlfriend passed away 2 months ago and my mother, 4 months ago. This song makes me feel more alone, but I cannot stop listen to it.
My Condolences. God has not abandoned you as this song suggest but he is there even unto thy mounth
I'm sorry for your loss. I would love to tell you things get better but that would just be a lie. Next month my mother's been gone for 8 years and I still miss her very much.
It sounds like we both are listening some music to help us feel better.
Be alive brother, please
Please look after yourself
If you ever get to see Mount Shasta and Northern California covered with the snow you understand that that was a gift from God frosted just give us a taste of what heaven is looking like your wife is there now in heaven and everything is so beautiful and peaceful and no pain and no sorrow I'm sure she misses you as much as you miss her but hang in there brother you will be there with her one day when your chores are done then you get to go home to that forever love to can ever be taken away ever again
I lost my parents when I was 11 years old. Now in my late 50s, I still grief and miss my parents. Grief have no expiration date.
Well said
Bless you
It is always hard when we lose the touchstones of our youth. Our hearts are with you.
Aw 😞 I just lost my mom. At. 75. My pop I still yells at me. Ha
Greatest times was sailing w my dad. We call pop. 81 soon
I'm really sorry. I lost my mother at 12, and it never healed. I just learned to survive. Happy to read your messages if you want to talk about it.
I loved that era, i'am 71 years old, my husband passed, last year. I'am alone again
ฉันเสียใจด้วย ฉันเด็กยุค20s ฉันชอบเพลงเก่ามากๆครับ❤❤
I hope you have some people in your life who you are close to. Nothing can take away the pain of this loss but reaching out to other people could help to soften the pain a bit and help you to find some happiness in some ways. I wish you all the best and send you a virtual hug.
Hang in there Maria. I’m sure he’d want you to have a happy and fulfilling twenty years or more to come. Cherish the memories, but don’t wallow.
I'm sorry!!
I am sorry
You're not alone.
Please pray...
I used to listen to this in the army in the 70s missing my girlfriend i came out the army and married my girl we have been together for 47 years and i still love her
Blessed
❤❤
❤️👍
love hat your still in love..I've never experienced proper love, all the best
@@paulharris6570 I have but was rejected lol. Both not good situations
What a beautiful but heart-wrenching song.
Fortunately, I got past my suicidal teenage years by hanging onto the hope that somehow things would get better for me. That happened when I was blessed at the age of 21 with a beautiful girl from Mexico who was 18 years old at the time and we fell in love and she rescued me from my abyss of loneliness and misery. Now we are going to celebrate 30 years of marriage together this year.
Damn that's amazing, and live your life to the fullest guys ☮️
I've got through two suicide attempts, one when my dad passed away when I was 10 and another later on in high school. After the second one I had somebody tell me that we create the life we want and I realized that if I tried to be what I felt I wanted to be that I could and I am.
Righteous.
@@Audiorevue why is everyone who sees this song suicidal like does sad songs only pride itself on sad teens like god open to second opinion
Still I’m happy for you
The lyrics are full of so much pain and anguish ,the song is a masterpiece.

My mom died in a car accident earlier this year in january, and it’s still so very hard to believe that she’s really gone. I’m 15 and I’m so angry that I’ll have to spend the rest of my life without my mom. I miss her every day. She was the greatest. And I can’t stop crying to this song.
Live your life loving the gift of having shared so many beautiful years with her... She is with you and her happiness is (be sure) to look at you making your dreams real. You're not alone.

Yessir yessir
Thanks
Cheers man
Not alone , but i love the sound in this song 🤗
Hermosa melodía grandes recuerdos 💕
I'm 43 years old, I'm Brazilian, I listened to these songs when I was a child. My father had beautiful records, I grew up listening to really good music, which touches the soul and heart. just beautiful.❤❤
My dad passed 15 years ago and still miss him so much. He was a hard man to please but always cared for his family. Miss you dad, wish we could have done more for you. So sorry for that.
He love you more than u realize 😊
My husband died 9 years ago and yesterday the dog he bought me that I had for 16 years died and yes I feel alone again Naturally
You are not alone! Trust me!
Love the good in your memories Laurie.....
Laurie: Your not alone.
I'm so sorry Laurie, I'm sending a virtual hug to you
....
Hopefully things will get better for you
The line about how he "cried and cried all day" when his mother died scared me as a kid to think that it would happen to me some day. It finally did. My Mom passed away on June 10, 2020 and I did cry all day. My Dad also died at 65 years old. Still love this song. God Bless.
God Bless
6-5 20
so sorry memories like this song bring all is about us to remember the good times xx bless you and your family
i'm 65 man
Despite being a sad song I find it very uplifting. Like if you're sad walking down the street, it makes your sadness beautiful
nail on head
so true
Yes, like the Bible says...
where does the bible say this? Not saying you're wrong, just curious@@margarita7687
Yes because my son who is a very gifted artist in all genres says to me often " Mom if you look deep there is so much beauty in sadness & pain. There is something beautiful about it. " I think this song explains this.
Don't know why but I play this over and over. It really moves me. Reminds me of the days I was growing up. My family split and it brings me back. I am now 78 with a loving family. I am not alone any more.
Hello!!! How are you doing today! Please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you're a fan. Stay Safe!
That;s great to hear,my friend.
My dad was killed in a car accident in 1976. My mother just passed away the day before valentine's day at age 90. In all those years she never so much as went on a date he was her true love. RIP mom your finally together again.
My mom was the same. My dad died 32 years ago at the age of 56 and my mom is now 80 years old and never went on a date either. My dad was her true love. She still around and enjoy her kids and grandkids.
É muito emocionante recordar as boas lembranças,são momentos inesquecíveis que nunca voltarão,tempo em que as musicas falavam ao coracao,hoje não existe musicas tão lindas. Como essas,chega toca nossa alma.

"Sometimes you never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory"
Don't let it become a memory.
Absolutely let it become a memory. It's all we have.
그 시간이 지났기 때문에 추억입니다. 그러므로 그 당시의 고통의 감정도, 시간이 흐른뒤의 추억의 감정도 모두 중요합니다
BUNNY THIS HIT ME RIGHT IN THE HEART
Great reflexion ! ❤️
This song is the history of my life, every time I listen to it brings tears to my soul. The lost, the time that won’t come back, the good memories, the first lover, the youth. Now is only memories and alone again naturally.
Dear AFS - That is a bit heartbreaking - but right on the mark - what you wrote here. Thank you.
You are still alive; it is the most important!
Yeah, the pass of time is a bitch.
Now 1 year later my beloved Dad has passed on.will think of him even more when i hear this song. Damn i miss you dad.-Naturally,
My father left home when I was nine years old, and I remember seeing my mother kneeling down in front of the record player, playing this song and crying, and it broke my heart. Rest in peace mom...I love you, and I miss you very much!
Ánimo, un abrazo
I love this song but do sad to hear your hear ypur story. May your mothet rest in Eternal peace

I swear the 70's decade had the best music ever.
Without question
@@paulleahy6252 you can never beat these lyrics
60s and 70s music will never die not like todays crap.
80s is good, but 70s is the best
Dennis Riray 80s mate
If not for the incredible Elton John's endless hits in the 70's Gilbert O'Sullivan would have been a much bigger and well known artist.
Those two talents could've existed as equals if not for timing. Not saying Elton doesn't deserve his fame, but it makes you wonder how it could've turned out
This song... and his 'Clair"...
@@koldrake2746very underrated song
Still iconic regardless
why?
My sister passed away in November 2023. Now I’m completely alone in an unfamiliar place, my mental health is absolutely shot to shit, and this song with these lyrics are exactly how I’m feeling and how I continue to feel and I just do not see a way out of this absolute mess of a life I have now.
“I truly am indeed, alone again, naturally”. 😢
❤️
You have to be good to get away with writing a song that is basically about miserable experiences in life, and yet leave such an immense emotional impression as this song does even after all these years when it was first produced. A remarkable song by a superb singer songwriter.
stateofdreams1 The Irish have always had a gift for turning tragedy into music. This song always makes me cry
Excelente comentario, saludos desde México, hermosa la música y ademas no tiene fronteras
shit! a lot went into that thought!. I have a few drinks on reading that and i said, WoW. you would have to be sober to write that. Fair play
Puedo escuchar la canción una y otra vez. I can listen to this song over and over again. This is art.
stateofdreams1 ggggg
This one goes out to all those who have holes in their hearts where someone once lived.
Spoken like a true 14-year-old nihilist.
@@REAL_ROGER_WATERS Your comment sounds like you're 14 years old. You're a millennial, aren't you?
I believe these words are prophetic, and to the point. Be proud of what you wrote.
🌷JESUS CAN FILL THOSE HOLES AND GIVES YOU A PEACE THAT SURPASSES ALL UNDERSTANDING. IM SORRY YOUR HURTING🙏🏼
Yes
I am a 70-year-old Taiwanese. I was hooked on this song when I first heard it when I was a teenager. The sad lyrics, intriguing melody, and outstanding chords all make me never tire of listening. It makes me walk into the tunnel of time and reminisce. It is very sad to remember the days when I was young and frivolous.
So sad, brother.
Ditto...
The best era for modern music was from '65 to '79. And this song was one of the best from that time.
My Dad passed when I was 26. I am 65 and this was his favorite song.
Bless him and all those who are listening
God Bless!
Your dad looking down at you from heaven with a great big smile.
お父様はきっとこの曲を聴いて幸せだったと思います!
I'm 7 years old then when I hear the song.For no reason at all,I cried.
@@mariateresayambao9101 I doubt that people cry at this song without a reason.

God bless you brother, Soul Mates Never Die
So sorry for your loss
I grew up with a set of twin brothers as friends, Dave and Daniel Gates, Dan died young, not sure what age exactly, forgive me, your story plucked my heart strings, Dave would be your age, wish you well...
Oh wow, lean on the lord!
i'm 25 and i listen every day i wish more people my age would listen to it. This music doesn't have to die
When I was 10 years old I bought my first album at J.C. Penny's. It was Gilbert O' Sullivan!
I was 23 when this came out and my father had just passed away, suddenly, of a heart attack at age 49. He left us all too early, my sister was 20, and two younger brothers 13 and 9. We were all heartbroken. This song was often on the radio and more often than not, I turned it off and other times I was compelled to listen. It made me sad beyond tears. My new bride always turned and hugged me when this was played. Sadly, after 24 years, she too left me...alone again.
Wow , you have a lot of weight -bless you 💟
I was going to tell the story of being 7 and my beloved dog Rowdie getting hit by a motorcyclist and getting killed and seeing his little , warm , lifeless body on that cold road that night .. but what you've been through is worse I guess ..
This was on the radio almost every day back then 😪
So sorry for your loss. I understand. Everyone I have ever loved has died. 😢
Naturally
So sorry to hear of your loss... God bless you for comfort and healing.
My father died 3 years ago today. My mother, 5 years ago tomorrow. I am listening to this all day. Over and over. I’ve cried, smiled, cried, laughed thinking about our time together. I am grateful for that and want to say, Mom and Dad, you will always be part of me and live in my heart.
Beautiful..well.said..I miss my mother and father also..blessings to you
I feel you, today is one of those days.
Live my friend, live for them, live for you and keep looking forward, they are in your heart.
The beauty of music…they live forever
la beauté est la beauté

I'm alone. This song reverberates deeply. I think of climbing that tower, but I dont have the balls. I truly listen to this song on repeat. Alone again naturally.
My dad lost everything he had. He loved this song. Died of a heart attack at a young age. Always think of him when I hear this.
Clyde---So sorry. Hope you had him for a good while tho.
My dad died loving coaching high school football
Clyde Barrow I remember this song, 30 years ago, in Moscow, when I was young Mosfilm boy from USSR
..maybe The Father had mercy and took him home.......
Clyde Barrow I'm sorry...
Proud to be one of the 65 Million people who love this timeless classic.
It`s more than just a song.
The first time I have heard this song is from one of the Ice Age movies, but the original version from this video is such a classic and I love it!
@@reallyphobia trust me. thats the watered down crap version this song is about suicide. and reality.
It’s going up 1 mil every month I’ve been jamming to dis for a while
so am i
I knew when my mother passed away I wouldn't be able to listen to this again. She loved this song, and the lyrics '' and when she passed away, I cried and cried all day '' still resonates so strongly with me.
So sorry to hear that, it sucks having someone or something you love taken away from you
Thank you @@Trotazik
Ditto brother. Mine is still alive (thank God) but I know when she's gone this song is going to hit me like a ton of bricks.
I am 16 and loved these kind of songs, so pure, a song that i can actually relate❤️
it means you have a great taste in music keep it up explore more music in the past you will be amazed
it means there is hope for future generation to appreciate past music. wish you all the best, and have fun. sooo much beautiful music in this world
Always be open-minded, especially to the oldies.
Well done.
He was only 24 when he wrote it.
29 in this video.
He's 77 now.
This song was aimed at young people.
Analysis of young love and how it feels.
I'm 14, this is one of my favorite songs. Along with several other songs more falling in to the genre of Swing, Jazz, or Disco.
But I'm still able to enjoy more modern music and some rock, luckily.
(Side Rant)
It's saddening that some people close themselves off to very specific genres and ages of music. I remember how much of a pain it was to get my mother to stop calling me weird for not liking "The Cure" nearly as much as "The Ronettes" or Cole Porter.
I cannot exactly disagree with her on certain modern music-
But I got her to like Billie Eilish, Shakira, and Olivia Rodrigo.
lost my wife, brother and dad in 1 year-this hits home
Bless you mate
My condolences. Lost 6 members of my family in one year. Last year; two in the same week. And it was not violence. They all were sick or suddenly died of heart failure. Life can be both beautiful and cruel and painful at the same time. May God bless you to continue on to better days ahead.
Wow...Speechless, how do you bounce back from that...God bless x
Friend, God bless you in your situation .
My greatest sympathy to you ill pray for you friend stay strong
This has to be the MOST beautiful sad song ever! I was 10 and now at 53 years old, it brings more tears then ever now! I was a child of a bitter divorce..I was only 14 when my parents split and that's why I cry still today!
DAMN BUDDY, I WAS ONE YEAR YOUNGER THAN YOU AND WENT THROUGH THE SAME, AND I STILL CRY TOO..
It's ok to be emotional...*...The Lord has always made sure we are never truly " alone"...Blessings to all children of divorce! I wish I had the power and money to put up places where kids of that pain can go talk to other's who have been there and are now adults such as myself...I am talking like children 20 years old and younger. Divorce at any age is not easy to see your parents go through with, but when you are only in 9th grade as I was , it crushed me to not have my father in my life on a day to day! Then even worse, when he married his 3rd wife just 1 year later, he never looked at me again! (* I don't think this song is about divorce, it just reminds me of my parents)* We all need help in many ways that will affect our lives forever! Music is one of the beautiful things I always had to help me and it still does! ( nickydepaola.com)..I am a singer, not big time but I have made my living since 1985 doing what I LOVE! Peace to all..*
This song refers to the death of his mom. Notice the use of the word 'gay' as it used to be understood (as 'happy') before the homosexuals usurped it for their own interest. I'm so sorry the song affects you so strongly because of your personal history. My parents also had an extremely bitter breakup over a decade before this song came out, in 1972, as have many others from the 1950s and 1960s, before it got worse in the 1970s. Good luck to you in your future years.
Blessings to us all..*
May you heal soon.
I recall this song playing on WCBS, one of the only stations we had. And drives to the beach in the back seat, no AC, the wind rearranging your hair and the radio playing your only distraction and relief from the heat! ❤
70´s 80´s 90´s were the golden years of humanity....
my parents loved this song. especially my dad R.I.P mom 1971-2009 R.I.P dad 1958-2013
Wow, you lost your parents when they were young. I was born in 1957. I remember this song when it first hit the charts and it is indeed a passionate one for me... Good luck to you..
my most sincere sympathy to your loss you lost your parents died so young I graduated from high school in 1972 your mom was only 1 year old and to know shes gone, is asad thing, sorry Swag...the best to you ..god bless, well at least enjoy this song, and feel a fatherly hug from me to you..take care
Thank you guys so much for your condolences.
No problem : )
you guys die early
This song still makes me cry. The years have changed nothing for me. Even at age 70, it hits me the same as it did when it first came out.
poor essas e outras ne
Yes, his songs touch the soul.
I call song's like this Apple pie music because I love songs like this
I always turned this song off when I was young because it ended with his parent’s dying. It wasn’t until recently I forced myself to listen to it again and it begins with him contemplating suicide. So sad.
@@canbest7668 There are certain things that can make me cry. I have a reputation for being quite the opposite, but I've known no small amount of sorrow and sadness in my life. Sometimes it's something like this song; sometimes it's when I have to tell of some event that was very hard to face. One of them is when I tell of how my autistic son was so badly abused when we lived in Israel; telling how he went into his mother and gave a short speech that began, "Daddy will take me to America to save my life." I can't even type the words without feeling tears building up.
The amazing ability of music to instantly transport me to a time in my life. I wouldn’t trade it for anything. Music is a gift. ❤️🕺🏻
MUSIC IS A GIFT...WELL SAID.❤❤❤.LOVE THIS SONG..NATURALLY ❤️
An all time classic.They'll be playing this on TH-cam and radio stations around the world for the next 100 years and beyond.Mark my words : ) December 3rd 2023.
I don't know why, but I always cry when I hear this song. Gilbert O'Sullivan is a phenomenal artist.
It is impossible NOT to cry - it is quite simply the saddest song ever written. Django Bates' version is even sadder, (much more direct, as it doesn't have the bouncy rhythm)
It's because you care M8..it proves that you have a soul...👍
Yeah me too, I absolutely love this song and everything it brings to me and the crazy thing is I didn't like this type of music when it first came out. Now I can't get enough of it 😊
He says sooo much truth about so many broken hearts left in the world
Me too
I'm 45 years old, and my cat died last year. I 'm pretty sure it was one of his favorite, because whenever i was playing this song he was purring. SO: This one's for you Mr Mustache... Wherever you are... I still think about you and love you very much. Thank you for these great times we shared.
ps: sorry if my english is not too good, it is not my native tongue...
I’m so sorry you lost him. I also lost my cat, three years ago, far too young, in terrible circumstances. I’m sure he loved you just as much.
@Thomas Dupont are you kitten ??? Lol .. be lucky my friend ...
When you're ready please do go to your local SPCA and find another so many cats need a loving home like you can provide. I know I'm a cat guy too. You have my condolences. 😺
Ur English is fine my dear brother. My cat passed couple years ago, he, too, loved the late 60s & 70s music. What's not to love? Artists actually had something of substance to say in those days. Sorrowfully it's no longer like that.
DAMN~!! Get a freakin' life ****!!!!!!!!!!
When i heared this song the first time as a german child at 6 years 1971 i loved it instantly and still do.
Yesterday was the last day of school, my favorite teacher I’ve ever had said at random she wouldn’t be hear next year. This song is how I feel
It is a sad song. But somehow it’s soothing. It makes you cry. It brings the grief out, that is healing in its own way
I agree Maryanne Meleka, It's a sad song and I fell in love with this song the
first time I heard it and I don't know why I did... I just did. Oh Well, Love has a
way of healing all people and we all must admit that we all love somebody and
today it is you that I love for your comment. Thank You!... I don't feel alone any
more. THANK YOU!
It totally does … healthy and healing at the same time.
Hello dear,how are you doing?
You're freaking right! I feel blue and came to listening it again.
Soothing??? I rather throw myself in a cacti mattress embedded with alcohol than hear this song again.
My dads favorite song. We played it for his funeral just yesterday. I miss you so much already dad.
Amigo te quiero no te conozco pero te quiero demasiado enserio y espero que puedas estar bien hoy murio mi tía
@@aaronno1827 yep!
Bless you
Damn, I hope he lived a full live. Sending you my prayers.❤️

Maravillosa canción!!!! Tuve una infancia feliz pero, a pesar de no entender la letra, esta canción me tocó el corazón cuando era un niño en España. Y lo sigue haciendo hoy!!! Hoy he bailado con ella y me he sentido muy feliz. Es curioso que una letra tan melancólica reconforte tanto el corazón. Pero es que esta melodía es pura magia,! Gracias, Gilbert, esta canción vale una vida!! Un abrazo a todos los corazones solitarios: vuestros comentarios me han hecho llorar. Nunca estáis solos: siempre hay alguien esperándoos a la vuelta de la esquina... o a la vuelta de la vida ❤❤❤❤
My grandpa introduced this song to me long ago . I never knew a mothers love - learned to love seasons, song , spring for the birds despite the person not able to be a mom to her youngest sister.
Life has much to live for & to love - having been loved no matter the time .. is everything living gifts to us.
Love those no matter how they enter your life - you may be the only mirror they see how love should look in .
Bless the family , all missing whom we may never know & those here a short time
But also who can't see now we will see in another world, perhaps in heaven. You'!ll meet them! Surely
"Oh, if he really does exist"
"Why did he desert me"
That's when I broke in tears
yeah same
Yeah, that part has always gotten to me also; have taken to telling God "Quit picking on the FAT KID!"! Not out of self pity, just a break from fuckery would be nice, you know?
same here
@Vincent Hambleton damn listening to this song ironically really hits different huh?
As I was reading this comment it felt as if I were singing along because the timing to read this was perfect!
This has to be one of the most underrated songs of all time. Brilliamt songwriting! Check out those chords!
Happy Valentine’s Day y’all
I found my 5 yrs old boy singing this song in the kitchen. I couldn't be any happier and rather touched.
Brenda Hernandez Nazario Yes the lyrics really should make you happy. Ask him if he’s okay.
The War Doctor hahahaha so funny!!
@@brendahernandeznazario6740 no, really you should ask him
You really should ask him
better than some rap crap
My Dad suffered from Depression and died on a broken Heart in 1995. This Song reminds me of him every Day!

I am so sorry! Depression is such a terrible condition.
if it lives it dies period.
mc77ification sorry for your lost
mr. warmth What a sensitive & caring person you are. SARCASM you jerk.
I heard this song at the age of 5 and felt it so deeply. Crazy, at 5! It still makes me tear up.
It proves people Suk 💕💕💕💕
My dear brother and I are both battling cancer and listening to this on June 1st in Japan.
goodluck my dude
Lyrics:
In a little while from now
If I'm not feeling any less sour
I promise myself to treat myself
And visit a nearby tower
And climbing to the top
Will throw myself off
In an effort to
Make it clear to whoever wants to know what's like when you're shattered
Left standing in the lurch at a church
Were people saying, my God, that's tough
She stood him up
No point in us remaining
We may as well go home
As I did on my own
Alone again, naturally
To think that only yesterday
I was cheerful, bright and gay
Looking forward to who wouldn't do
The role I was about to play
But as if to knock me down
Reality came around
And without so much as a mere touch
Cut me into little pieces
Leaving me to doubt
Talk about, God in his mercy
Oh, if he really does exist
Why did he desert me
In my hour of need
I truly am indeed
Alone again, naturally
It seems to me that
There are more hearts broken in the world
That can't be mended
Left unattended
What do we do
What do we do
Alone again, naturally
Looking back over the years
And whatever else that appears
I remember I cried when my father died
Never wishing to hide the tears
And at sixty-five years old
My mother, God rest her soul
Couldn't understand why the only man
She had ever loved had been taken
Leaving her to start
With a heart so badly broken
Despite encouragement from me
No words were ever spoken
And when she passed away
I cried and cried all day
Alone again, naturally
Alone again, naturally
Thank you soooo much for the lyrics.
Thank u! 🖤
Thank you for lyrics..just heard this song...beautiful 😍
Yes thank you 🙏🏽
Wow I’d not ever saw all the words to this or got why it meant but thanks always liked it tho !
The Summer my older brother left home, and never returned..RIP John..
Do you want a hug?
I know the feeling. I loss my only brother too. RIP Tony. I also loss my dad & my mom, all 4 years apart from each other. May they all RIP. And your brother too.
me too
Sorry to hear this :(
so sorry for your lose.trite i hope this music eases your pain a bit.
God, how I love this music, 93, and still a listener to great songs, singers.
This song isn't from my Era but it reminds me of my parents. Although they gave us a bad childhood it still reminds me of when they were young.
I have been alone all of my life, so this song is my personal anthem.
I have been too. It's been a difficult journey.
My son walked out of my life and has cut all contact. Once again, I live this song. It is the story of my life too. I am so sorry for others who walk this path too.
Omg same!😇
we're all end up alone anyway
You're all welcome to have a friend in me.. life is hard, everybody needs some friends to hold on to.
Take care guys!

James George Tomkins (14 February 1941 - 2 October 2012), known professionally as Big Jim Sullivan, was an English guitarist. Died at age 71.
He played the guitar solo on this song.
RIP Big Jim Sullivan
Isn't he great? So glad to go back to those younger days when music was great.
It saddens me to hear of others sorrows because i am in the same boat,getting older and seeing everything in life becoming just memories.
@Romanogers4ever we are just a bunch of corpses on borrowed time and nothing more we were doom from the start
But hopefully wonderful memories
Exactly, all I hear now is so and so passed, it's like everything and everyone through out my life is gone or being whiped away. And this the generation doesn't make sense. Their so selfish to the point of only care about their image. I was glad to see people out protesting this year but the timing was off with the pandemic. Talk about confusing times🥺🤔

Beautiful to remember and feel the youth we had
My mother loves this song and she passed away last night and whenever I here it it reminds me of her
I'm really sorry for your loss.
bullshit
My Mum died two years ago too, the time when you wrote this. She was 65 years old too. I'll be waiting if I make it, to see her in the resurrection (John 5:28-30). I hope I make it.
When my husband died I was so lost. I listened to this song every night while drinking myself into oblivion....luckily I pulled myself together...
Superb writing.
The lyrics of this and other Gilbert O'Sullivan songs/ballads/poems are much loved and anylised by so many people from all walks and stages of life.
Thank you x

@Barbara Guest this comment doesn’t make sense you just sound like a negative dickhead stop being so contstantly critical it makes you look like a smug asshole but that’s just me
@Barbara Guest you must b miserable and nothing better to do to comment negatively and unnecessarily on this nice song and lyrics so we can sing along. Get some honey to spruce your day.

Yes he did! With 60 million views, obviously this song is highly loved. And as for me, I will never forget this song even though I first heard it 48 years ago...a true classic.
Like Megamind...
I've been divorced, single for 9 years now. This beautiful, sad song always makes my tears well up. Most days, I'm okay, but when I hear this one, I just fall apart. It drives home just how truly alone I am. 😢😢😢
No matter how many years have passed, this song still touches my heart every time I hear it.
It speaks volumes about how beautifully written the song is.
I listened to this as a kid, what a carefree time! It was definitely indeed a beautiful song.
Me too. Alone again naturally....😔
@@marleneriley5298 😢😢

I just lost a long time 40 plus year friend who truly had the hardest life of any human i ever knew..Both parents gone by age 16, boarding school, homelessness, alcoholism, Divorce, rare blood disease which ultimately took him out this past weekend, he found a new love and she died on him 2 years later...He always said This was his Favorite song ever...He said it spoke for just about every factor of his life from age 8-58...Rest In Peace, Michael Ryan from Philly...It was a Great 40 year run, and now you are with your family and beloved Frances once again...Love you, my Brother...Say HI to EVERYONE for me...I'll Miss You!!
Too bad, somewhere along that painful path someone didn't tell him about the love and Grace of Jesus!
omg amazing story so sorry xxxx
@@aliciabelt7322 haha. That is one of the funniest comments I’ve seen in a while. Jesus does not save, but the idea of Jesus can be an inspiration to the naive, perhaps. Which turns out is you. Best of luck to you, but to the rational, well, we’re on our own. Must be nice

I was 18 when this beautiful but foreboding song was released. 68 now but this song in it's wonderful way takes me back even though great sadness is included. Life can be tough as we all know.
All over the radio back in 1972.
I guess I was too young to understand this song when it was first released but for some reason I was thinking about it today on my 72nd birthday. I hadn't experienced real loss back then, but now, with my parents, aunts, uncles, cousins and too many close friends gone, I find myself pretty much alone. Listening to it again after all the years that have passed, it brought tears to my eyes and just made me cry. Cry for those wonderful days when I was surrounded by people I loved. And when this beautiful song was playing on the radio.
onirannam hope all is well for you and those you love. God bless.
Ok boomer
My mother loved this song, and when she died, I cried and cried all day.
Sorry for your loss we one day be alone again "someday
Sorry bro :'(
Nestor123057 were alone soon
I was the same but for me it was dad.
Very sorry for your loss, I can relate to that, it's been 23 years since my Mom passed away and I still cry, she was only 51 and it was really hard on me as she was my best friend, I cherish what time we did have together and I'll never forget them, God bless my friend

Always loved this song but never bothered to look up the lyrics, boy what a mistake! Had me in tears remembering both my dad and brother who are no longer here
I was 10 years old when this song came out. Who could've known that at the age of 62 I have been Widowed for almost 14 years and am once again alone 😢

The song still sounds good after all these years.
The thing is, music is either trendy for a few months, or it ages like wine
