@@JohnSmith-hs1hn Then why are you listening to the song??!! You know why racism is still alive today? Because of your own inferiority complex that blames all good sides of the world, like you did. Respect is not inborn right, respect is earned and deserved, that's what most people can't get. If you want to say you're equal to someone or you are superior , you have to prove it by your dids and achievements and not by screaming in rally or social media.
When first I saw the love-light in your eye And heard thy voice, like sweetest melody Speak words of love to my enraptured soul The world had naught but joy in store for me E'en though we're drifting down life's stream apart Your face I still can see in dream's domain I know that it would ease my breaking heart To hold you in my arms just once again I love you as I never loved before Since first I met you on the village green Come to me, or my dream of love is o'er I love you as I loved you when you were sweet When you were sweet sixteen (Modern version has trimmed the middle part and has some words changed)
Although i've never heard this charming 125-year-old song before, i've seen the title of it mentioned in literature. Also there are other songs about a girl who was "sweet sixteen". My late mother used to recite a rhyme that went "Sweet sixteen and hard to get. Never been kissed by a pretty boy yet". Maybe that was part of a song.
Kegan Mahon Im not deaf & its not a waste after that comment you made was it? Oh yes i just go in old & rare songs made over 100 years ago & not listen to this song
Very early recording of this iconic song, although i prefer Al Jolsons gorgeous rendition recorded on Decca in 1947, this is a very interesting version too.

Only true 1890s kids will remember!
GaiaBreakingNews 1900s actually
This rendition is from 1901, but the song itself was written and published in 1898 by James Thornton.
most of the boys of the 1890’s went to war and never came home, quite dark
I Agree!
Yeah, it's only true!
When first I saw the love-light in your eye
And heard thy voice, like sweetest melody
Speak words of love to my enraptured soul
The world had naught but joy in store for me
E'en though we're drifting down life's stream apart
Your face I still can see in dream's domain
I know that it would ease my breaking heart
To hold you in my arms just once again
I love you as I never loved before
Since first I met you on the village green
Come to me, or my dream of love is o'er
I love you as I loved you when you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen

Harry Macdonough will never be forgotten. But most of everyone else will be.
Harry Macdonough had the perfect voice for this song.

1901...? Wow...wow...wow 👍👍👍
This must be a popular song back then as I acquired this song on a Regina Music Box disc of 20 3/4 inches in diameter.
So sweet!
@EdisonSquirrel I agree, he really had a way with the sentimental songs. He's one of my favorite tenors from this period.
How beautiful
You're very welcome!

Sounds like my Pre-dog 7" Victor A-769. A cool record! And my oldest recognizable pop music record. This is a nicely restored version.
was this released only on cylinder or on disc as well?
i think if i could only own one cylinder this would be a contender for it
Please publish the lyrics, I want to learn that beautiful piece.
When first I saw the love-light in your eye
And heard thy voice, like sweetest melody
Speak words of love to my enraptured soul
The world had naught but joy in store for me

I know that it would ease my breaking heart
To hold you in my arms just once again
I love you as I never loved before
Since first I met you on the village green
Come to me, or my dream of love is o'er
I love you as I loved you when you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen
And don't forget the version by The Inkspots
