A stunningly beautiful, tender, loving, soundtrack.......... Timeless and perfect now as it was 40 odd years ago. Beautiful memories, aged with tears and laughter, faded with time, to a soft glow.
OK, true confessions. I immersed myself in this album when I was in high school four decades ago so, when I couldn't come up with an original poem in my poetry class, I wrote down these lyrics and turned them in as my own. I can't remember how that turned out! I'd forgotten about it until today when I heard it again.
have the record album, i was 18 when i saw this at the movies in key west florida, amazing, hearing it all again grabs my heart still:) i loved it then and i love it now, i just downloaded mp3's of it from amazon to share it with my family:) and FRIENDS:) God bless the gorgeous artists who make our souls fly and feel so much:)
there are hundreds of great songs that elton doesn't play anymore because they haven't reached the top and didn't become hits... people at concerts want to hear your song, candle in the wind and so on.. I think it's important also to publish those lovely unknown songs...
Hi Sean - you know you were my hero for a long long time ........ You and Anicee (bless her soul) made the most touching, romantic, fun ..... and yet realistic love story in 'FRIENDS'. It kind of defined the care-free and rebellious era of the 60's & 70's. I spent a long time looking for a girl like 'Michelle' afterwards ........ silly me! What are you up to these days? Best of luck to you & your family. George
I believe this version, as were the other songs on the soundtrack, we re-crecorded at Trident Studios for the actual soundtrack album/LP that was released. "Michelle's Song" is one of my favorites from "Friends".
Lol The Wonder Years brought me here too. Tonight watching them make out on the bridge. Its 11:41pm and I jumped up and put my iphone to the tv so it could identify the song. I love the show.
For our world, the circle turns again Throughout the year we've seen the seasons change It's meant a lot to me to start anew Oh the winter's cold but I'm so warm with you Out there there's not a sound to be heard And the seasons seem to sleep upon their words As the waters freeze up with the summer's end Oh it's funny how young lovers start as friends Yes it's funny how young lovers start as friends
Wow, thanks for posting. I have the soundtrack version of this song that was rereleased on the Rare Masters cd from 1992. This version is noticably different. It almost sounds like a different recording, although it might just be a different mix. Maybe it's just a different instrumental mix under a different vocal recording. It's one of my favourite Elton songs. I've been working on my own low-fi version on my spinkley dilapidated keyboard and posting it. I'll send you the link when I do it. ;-)
I have this on dvd and it is on the internet streaming in four parts, If I knoew how to make it into 10 min sections I would postt he whole thing on youtube. It is a beautiful movie.
This version sounds like it was slightly sped up. It is out of tune with my piano, unlike the album version. I actually like how it sounds better this way.
今から50年以上前の映像だね。豊かな南仏の映像とトロけるようなエルトンの音楽が本当に素敵な映画でした。私はクロコダイルロックで知った歌手ですが、衝撃を受けた事を思い出しました。
Never saw the movie...and I have tried.I hear it's worth the watch though.
Seeing this clip brings back such memories of filming it in the camargue all those years ago
Thank you for this wonderful movie, which I saw when I was only 15 years old.

I hope more people will explore Elton's magnificent, unequalled catalogue of songs, with many hidden treasures surpassing various famous hits

The scene in The Wonder Years was so close to my personal experience, wow......i'll never forget it...
I've been lucky enough to attend nine of Elton's concerts (between '79 and 2005) and have yet to hear it, sorry to say. Nice clip, thanks for sharing!
What a beautiful movie “Friends” was‼️ It was very underrated both musically and cinematically.
One of the best love songs
Thank you for this video
The Wonder Years brought my here :)

A perfect song!
The perfect song
I JUST LOVE THIS SONG, and on this version, Elton's voice sounds particularly emotional, compared to the soundtrack version I have on vinyl.
Isn't it the same recording?
It's different this one he's singing a key higher

This is beautiful. Thank you so much.
His singing is slightly different from what's on the soundtrack. I like it. :)
For our world, the circle turns again
Throughout the year we've seen the seasons change
It's meant a lot to me to start anew
Oh the winter's cold but I'm so warm with you
Out there there's not a sound to be heard
And the seasons seem to sleep upon their words
As the waters freeze up with the summer's end
Oh it's funny how young lovers start as friends
Yes it's funny how young lovers start as friends
My favorite song from the movie soundtrack, and one of my all-time favorite Elton John songs.

@JCE1972 yes... but only parts of it.
👌
Different from the sound Track I like it
Is the camargue as beautiful as it looks in the movie? This is such a good movie :)
Yes it is.
❤❤❤
This version is kewl! Where do I get it?
This version almost sounds like it could be on "Empty Sky".
Is there a way to watch this movie on TH-cam?
i hate to say but i like the movie versions of the songs more than the actual album versions
This version sounds like it was slightly sped up. It is out of tune with my piano, unlike the album version. I actually like how it sounds better this way.
yes, more naive and fresh...
Different from the album sounds like a demo
nomadi version is the best
It almost sounds like it was sped up a bit.
