The road is long With many a winding turn That leads us to who knows where Who knows where But I'm strong Strong enough to carry him He ain't heavy, he's my brother So on we go His welfare is of my concern No burden is he to bear We'll get there For I know He would not encumber me He ain't heavy, he's my brother If I'm laden at all I'm laden with sadness That everyone's heart Isn't filled with the gladness Of love for one another It's a long, long road From which there is no return While we're on the way to there Why not share And the load Doesn't weigh me down at all He ain't heavy he's my brother He's my brother He ain't heavy, he's my brother, he ain't heavy
Damn, of all the many, many covers of this song, and the original by the Hollies, Rufus Wainwright’s is by far my favorite. His delivery of it is just so beautiful and passionate. I discovered this during the end credits of Zoolander, and I really wish it were more well known. It’s a real shame this isn’t available on iTunes or Spotify. It seems like the only place it exists is in random low resolution versions on TH-cam :(
Recently today my Moms boyfriend broke up they been dating 3 years and also they were thinking of getting married and also he said No and that really hurt my Mom and Van he’s a Claims Adjuster for People Offshore workin On rigs and he’s a marine and now I called my mom and told me what happened and now this song reminds me of him he ant heavy he’s my friend
got a pic of me in 1981, brothers on my lap and thats what was written on the bottom of the Polaroid
Incredible talent! Amazing voice! Gorgeous Rufus
The road is long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows where
But I'm strong
Strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
So on we go
His welfare is of my concern
No burden is he to bear
We'll get there
For I know
He would not encumber me
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
If I'm laden at all
I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart
Isn't filled with the gladness
Of love for one another
It's a long, long road
From which there is no return
While we're on the way to there
Why not share
And the load
Doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy he's my brother
He's my brother
He ain't heavy, he's my brother, he ain't heavy
Strings. Vocals. The whole thing. ❤️
Rufus' voice is so special because it touches people's hearts. It's not only technique, but sensitivity
That voice! If your having a bad moment, just listen to Rufus...Beautiful.
Most beautiful voice on the earth.
Incredible - just gorgeous
I think this is the best song ever written, conveyed beautifully by Rufus.
Rufus should just cover every song ever made. He has one of the greatest voices of all time. He the very definition of underrated.
yup. agreed
I agree! Great voice & arraignment
I miss my brother Mark terrribly
Beautiful - his voice is just so perfect for this cover. The very best one I’ve ever heard and all thanks to Zoolander.

I love Rufus..this version is so good. Shout out for the arrangement and the background vocalists...Just beautiful...
and so timely...his delivery is breathtaking and the words so meaningful especially at this time
Sooooo beautiful!!!
Probably one of the prettiest songs ever.
Hannah Grinnell it is ain't it.
Makes compassion sexy.
Air That I breath by the Hollies...beautiful...

You should go for the real original by Bobby Scott .... the Hollies one is just the most popular.
Warning: Get a box of cleenex before ...
I ordered the Zoolander CD that includes this song to make sure I always have it! Don't worry; it'll get much more play. As it should!!
❤️. What a killer version!
