- The Canadian singer/songwriter Terry Jacks performs his hit "Seasons In The Sun" at the French TV show of Patrick Sebastien "Les Annees Bonheur". The show was distributed by France Television and TV Monde worldwide in January 2014.
My dad died in 1975 I was 6 years old and this song got me through the worst of my grief. I just always said it was sung to me by my dad. It still brings me comfort all the years later. AND MY NAME IS MICHELLE.
Hi Michelle 😢a very touching story Dear. I was 14 years old when this song came out. I’ve always loved it and it’s a sad song indeed. From now on when ever I hear this song I’ll think of you Honey.😢🙏
What a heavenly connection! ❤
Hi Michelle..
I’m Michele, also. But I was BORN in May of 1974, while this song was still in the charts. My name was supposed to be Sharon Anne, but my aunt and uncle had a baby girl three weeks before I was born and they called her Sharon. Another uncle suggested the name Michele. I’ve always wondered if it was because he liked this song.
This was the first record I bought as a child
I remember this song the day it hit the radio stations. Today at 66 years old it still brings tears to my eyes thinking of all the family and friends I've lost these past 50 years or so. What a great song with a profound message.
I was 7 when this was a hit. I miss my deceased family members too. Wow time flies! Terry took care of his voice.
Тоже 66 лет, не знаю инглиш, танцевали под эту песню, недавно прочитал перевод, как то стыдно стало за безрассудную молодость, песня класс! Нет моих родных.
My parents are gone and im by myself @@cocoaorange1
Who else is watching this awesome video in 2024?
Beautiful song even

Me, Michael from Alsdorf Germany, 63 Years old.
I am Old Trafford Manchester
I am.
Loved it when I heard it for the first time in 1976 at age 15, still love it today at age 62!!! ❤ May 3, 2023.😊
I feel the same way. I am 62 and loved it even then.
Dave
Me tooooooo 😊
i’m also the same age. love this song. From Atlanta with Peace ✌🏿
Same here!
Same age here, and I feel exactly the same.
You are not human if this song does not make you feel sad and happy for your life.
70's had the best songs. Terry still sounds great.
It's actually a song from 1961, written by Jacques Brel.
YES, and, it's NOT that I was a young man in the 70s either!!!, because, all music from the 70s, take a lot of beating in my humble opinion😊 AND, I think it WAS written in the 60s🤔, but, it was recorded in the 70s by Terry Jacks!!, and it's still a brilliant, even though a very sad song!!🙂
One of the best songs of the 70’s!!
Who's listening in 2020 Terry still got it ✌ & ❤
he does! now in his middle 70s
This hits hard for anyone of age, like me at 62....you start to realize that this world will continue to spin regardless if you're on it. Oh well...such is life!
Love from Vietnam
I’m not sure when this was recorded, but he had two strokes in 2016. vancouversun.com/news/local-news/susan-and-terry-jacks-fight-serious-health-issues-in-hospital

My little sister was hit by a car and died in 1978 when I was 8 yrs old.. I remember playing at a friends house and they had the 45 of this song and played it.. This was the first song that ever made me cry.. Love everyone you can, while you still can guys
This song was played at my uncles funeral back in 1998 he was only 33 hope he watching over is family r I p our Wayne listening uk 🇬🇧 England here 2024
His voice was amazing even after 53 years.
And Still look Good with Lots of Hair😍🥰👍👍
I buried my best friend of 50 years. In 2011. This song reminds me of him everytime i hear it . RIP tom rigney
Nice memories going back in time when music was good.
Happy 50th anniversary to this song, it was released this time in 1974! It’s early January 2024 as I post my comment. Although this song did not make the top ten songs of 1974, in my opinion it should have; it was that big a hit. May it live on for another 50 years!!
He. Has the. Voice like when he was young.. marvelous
Hello Carmen, how are you doing?
Man this song still makes me cry. Life is so short, dont waste time fighting and arguing. We get one crack in life to be happy and loving to others.
PERFECTLY PUT!!❤❤
I SIT HERE WITH TEARS RUNNING DOWN MY FACE!😪 REMINDS ME OF ONE OF MY OLDER SISTERS, I MISS HER AND THE "GOOD OLD DAYS' WHEN MUSIC HAD MEANINGFUL LYRICS!!
you are so so very right life goes faSTER THAN YOU WANT IT TO i am 55 had to bury 7 family members everytime i listen to this i get extream flash backs of the furerals i have gone to but i know there in a better place than i am
Truth ! one chance.
Lol..My Soulmate passed on in 2019...MICHELLE Marie Brown...My little one...for 16 years. August 25,1963-------
September 8, 2019...r.i.p. See you on the. Other side sweety...MmmmUAH
Yeah and look what they do to us …blow us up …love everyone yeah right ….we had joy we had fun slotting floppies in the sun
Me and my best friend met in 1973. We were 12. We are still best friends. We are 62. Friends for 50 years so far. We remember this song. TX.
It's incredible that he still sounds the same as he did back in the 70's. This was a one hit wonder but it is timeless!
Indeed my friend it was at one point my favorite song back then, now i heard that originally it was going to be called something like "a dying man" but the producers thought it to depressing. But don't know for sure, never looked it up
He doesn't really sound the same but he hasn't lost his ability to put the feeling into this song. Good job, Terry.
@Keith Kristi The other song you mentioned isn't known in the USA. All everyone knows by Terry Jacks is "Seasons In The Sun"!
@Keith Kristi But that other song you mentioned was never known here in the US. He will always be remembered only for Seasons In The Sun".
@Keith Kristi Damned straight he did.
he sounds just the same when he was young. what a legend
Has he passed away ?
It almost looks as if this was being lip synched.
Be a good song for Fil over at Wings of Pegasus to analyze.
@@paulgregory4102 No.
He doesn’t sound anything like he did in the original recording. Your memory is wrong.
@@johnboy32064 Yeah if he actually sang here his voice sounds pretty close to when he was young but live performances never sound like the original recordings. I always want the performances to sound like the original recordings.
Wow he he hasn’t changed at all !!
This was 2 of my favorite songs as teen in 1974 - I lost a friend to cancer today at just 52 and this ring made me think of him - he was an entertainer as well 😢
Hello Lori, how are you doing?
This song is timeless, and so is Terry Jacks.
Amen.

The last farewell to say ! The memories still remain . I love this song way back then . Now I'm 66 years old .
Magnifique chanson je l avais complétement oublié merci beaucoup pour le partage cela me rappelle de très bon souvenirs sortie en 1974 je crois année de mes 21ans ouah le temps passe trop vite 😂😂❤❤❤❤❤
He still has an awesome voice. For many years was my favorite song.
This was played at my Dads funeral in December 2017, he was 51 years old💔
Mine too, January 31st 2018,aged 57,was named after this song cx
I'm so sorry for each of your losses. I'm 53 and it's shocking to hear that your dad's have passed away so young.My dad passed away on October 30,less than 3months ago. I wish you both all the best,I'm so sorry.
God bless you all for your losses. I too, have loss. This song is beautiful in its poinancy, but still delivers the darts to the heart. After loss the memories, whether happy or sad, always leave a bit of pain. Still, the love we feel never dies.
I'm so sorry for your lost😟
I did the same at my dads funeral in January 2011, he passed away at 80 years old and every time I hear this song.
I get tears in my eyes.
Thanks for memories, back in 1974. I was a 18 year old United States Marine, stationed at Camp LeJeune,North Carolina, USA, Semper Fidelis
I also served in the JNA army in 1974, I was on guard duty and this song was heard through the window, it was my favorite song at that time.
@BorisGoljevscek so it looks like we were in the Military about the same it. I actually served from 5 Oct 73 to 4 Dec 77. I love music from the late 60s and 70s. Stay safe over there.
Semper Fidelis Marine Camp Lejeune 1972-
@JJM-qf8dz I was assigned to H&S Bn, 2nd Force Service Regiment, January 1974 through July 1974, and returned September 1975 thru October 1977, renamed 2nd Force Service Support Group. Today 2nd Marine Logistical Group.
Terry and the back up singers sound like the entrance way to heaven
A great song by Terry Jacks. I remember when this song first came out around 1974. It is still a classic in 2021. Many thanks Terry. 👍👍👍
My sister passed 2 yrs ago, She wanted this song played at her funeral. So we had it played and we was so heart broken. It brought so many years of our childhood growing up. The song just fit all of us. Thank you Terry!
The moment I heard this song I fell in love with it.
@@jimmykouba4494 I agree, 👍👍👍
@@jimmykouba4494 me too in 1974
Love this song heard till come up on u tube
I did not expect his current singing to sound anything like the original. I was VERY wrong! He captured every feeling from the original and didn't miss a beat. Bravo Terry
My parents loved this song,and I can't hear it without crying. ❤
One of my favorite songs from my younger days. I love it! God bless you for this song. It's hard to die.
My brother died when he was 40. I will always remember this song because he sang it when he was 17 and me 14. He was my hero. I am an academic and he a plumber. I often said to him that I would changed with him if I could. He was such a lovely person but the wine and the song took him to early. I miss him so much.
Same with my brothers.
I was pleasantly surprised to see this version of Terry Jacks ! I love Terry!
189
He looks and sounds great for someone lamenting for 50 years about how hard it is to die. Glad he's still with us!
my most favorite song of 70"s during hidhschool days until now .I"m 60 years young
I was really surprised to see this live version of Terry Jacks doing this song, and what a great job, that even after all these years he can still put so much emotion into the song.
Brings back many Summer holiday memories...
Thanks for the memories...;))

I was a little girl when I heard this I'm 55 years old now. Still cry , still listen and then I see this sigh.... Nothing has changed in his voice. As a little girl feeling lost. This i would play and play.

Classic, I remember waking up every morning in 1974 to this song on the radio. Terry Jacks has the same effect as he did then, nothing was ever lost. Truly hauntingly beautiful.
It's 2022 now I'm 54 yrs old now and this bring s me back to sitting in the back seat of my parents car in the 70s listening to my dad singing this song how I miss those days....
Hello Dawn, how are you doing?
Been on my playlist for decades
I love this song but makes me cry😢 because bring me memories of a dear friend that died at a very young age... 🎵we have fun, we have joy, we have seasons in the sun🎵...and yes we had so much fun!. And our generation still enjoying this wonderful song..thanks Mr. Jacks!🤗
Unas de la canciones que amo desde que la escuche hace muchas decadas atras, y tambien una de las que me costó harto tiempo en aprenderla porque si se dan cuenta, cada estrofa es diferente, solo el coro es algo similar aunque hay partes que también cambia, a cuantos les costó aprenderla? Saludos a la mejor generación que haya existido jamás!!
Merci pour ce partage en live et cette vidéo
Effectivement énorme succès de l'année 1974
Je l'ai écouté en boucle pendant plusieurs années
J'adorais cette adaptation faite en gardant le sens du Moribond de son ami belge Jacques Brel
Doux rappel
Bon chanteur canadien qui a eu un énorme succès avec ce titre
It is amazing how well he has kept his voice.
DoggoIsLife it hasn’t changed even after 40 years and he wasn’t off key either
Yes he still has it his voice hasn't change.
@@KelmeT20smpmh exactlyyy
Since he was a one hit wonder and didn’t have a big career, this allowed him to preserve his voice all this time
Are you guys all completely (tone-)deaf? 😂
My cousin sang this song in the 70' when he was 15 or 16 years old...in a movie theater contest.."he won first price" I don't know if he was the firt one to translate this song? But he was very fluently good speaking both languages. Spanish and English. He truly sound like Terry jack ❤😊
Absolutely fabulous , im crying my eyes out listening to Terry singing this live after all these years.
😢
Me too 🥲🥲🥲🥲
Last week, Skippy, my constant companion for the past 18 years, crossed the Rainbow Bridge.
I found this video fitting, and it comforts me to imagine sharing it with him.
BTW This was my Cairn Terrier...
Seeing Terry singing again, 40 years later, was awesome!
Hello Beth, how are you doing?
What great memories from almost 50 years ago. A great time to be 16.
I didn't truly understand the depth of the lyrics when I was 11 yrs old, but this and Paul McCartney's "My Love" played every day and though I was only a child I fondly remember humming or singing these songs when I was feeling good on my way to play with my friends.
Since I was about 13 years (I am now 61) this has followed me. Heard it originally in the radio on our boat deck, no streaming then. Extremely emotional
One of my favorite songs 🎵 the best ever thank you lots of love from south africa ❤❤❤❤
Terry Jacks relocated to Vancouver. 🇨🇦
I remember this song when I was a boy visiting Vancouver. Great 👍
RIP Susan Jacks, recorded on 27 April 2022
Sounds the same!...This song is one off childhood (which not grand)...yet this song...made me feel " GREAT" Thank you Terry Jacks ...for finding music...x
Hello Lynn, how are you doing?
My wife is dying and i am broken. She is my everything. Without her i am nothing. I think I’ll be joining her when she goes.
Heard this song when I was in elemetary school. A blast from my past. Thank you
One of the very few artists of the '60's-'70's who still sounds the same has full head of hair and same weight. He must have a healthy lifestyle. Good on ya Terry!
Tarn Sand I was thinking the same thing
Yes he and Henry Gross who still tours.sings Shannon,also a very emotional beautiful song.
He sounds the same? You've GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! He can barely "squeek" it out. Love the song, but he CANNOT sing it anymore.
He's a remarkabe singer normally singers from that era if they were to sing now it wouldbe a struggle but not Terry jacks the man has not missed a step if you agree give me a hoot and y'all have a great evening
@@xxxDreamWeaver1958 - ???
Since I was a child I heard that song in spanish, but when I have listened with Terry Jacks, it was fabulous,...now from Nocupétaro Michoacán México ..." My trusted Friends"...I was the black ship of the family"...
Hello Martha, how are you doing?
My God he's still the same! His voice sounds exactly like it did in 19 fucking 74!
Ha Yes that is what I just said...wow...he still sounds young...
I wouldn't go THAT far. Haha! As you get older, the notes aren't as easy to hit. I'm older, so I know. This is still my favorite song of all time!
Not really.
Trap Tiger No, he doesn't. He's now much more nasal, his higher notes more forced. It's a world of difference between then and now.
Armpit Studios Sorry but I have to agree with Tiger Trap . He sounds just like he did back in '74. And if I may say so, I can feel the pain in his voice even more now than back in '74.
P.S. And yes the French are clueless- singing and dancing to a song about a dying man.
I remember when this song hit the charts and how popular it was and also The song by Harry Chapin ,called Cats in the Cradle and I'm 64 years old!
He still sounds great! I loved this song as a kid and still do almost 50 years later!
His voice hasn't changed at all, this song still gives me goosebumps!❤
Beautiful job and such a great song
Hello Linda, how are you doing?
I was 8. And I Remember this song coming on the radio. I remember being sad. I'm 54 now and I get chills.
I was 12...and I remember crying...It still hits me today...
Hello Nancy, how are you doing?
This song was a favorite of my brother's back when we were little. When I hear it now I think of him. He passed away in 2018 at the still young age of 56.
My brother too, passed in 2015 aged 55
As for man, his days are like grass;
he flourishes like a flower of the field;
for the wind passes over it, and it is gone,
and its place knows it no more. -Psalm 103
Amazing how that song can pull at the heart to the point it can make grown men teary eyed.
It's incredible how this song is loved by so many generations..
The song is a true masterpiece ❤
Every once in a great while it all comes together perfectly. Well done Terry Jacks. Classic.
I think i was about 10 years old when this song came out. enjoyed it then and i still enjoy it now. for some reason it resonated with me. it seemed like the audience had blank stares, while listening to the song. i don't know if it was something that they couldn't relate to or if it was a language barrier and just couldn't understand the words.
Zombies.
1973---I was living in Korea where my dad was stationed with the US Army. I needed to be medevac'd to San Francisco for treatment at a stateside hospital, and I first heard Seasons In The Sun. Before we went back to Korea my parents took me to a mall, where I found the 45. I am now in my 60's and it is still one of my favorite songs. ❤
I lost my father in Dec '73, this song is embedded in me and has been since I first heard it, both are intrinsically linked.
Blast from the Past... The BEST.... Terry is youth in a Bottle and Full of Memories!!!!! Thank you Terry
Child hood memories thanks Terry Jacks now im nearly 60 still good times never gets old back when music was music in raw form
Still have a beautiful voice. Love your voice. This sing brings back memories.
Nieśmiertelny utwór to również "Gdy odchodzisz" . Świetny tekst z ciepłym głosem Terriego
His voice didn't age AT ALL! Never has time been so kind to a voice!
KRYPTONITE SPIDER-BITE DYNAMITE and his hair still much
"Never has time been so kind to a voice." LOVELY COMMENT.
Are you guys all trying to be nice or blanketing a nice youth memory? His voice has so clearly aged!
In the 70's when I was a kid , my dad loved to listen to this song on the radio, and every verse describes his life growing up from the we have known each other since 9 or 10 . This part describes his best friend Buddy when they were kids ..2nd verse talks about his father, my dad told me was an alcoholic and beat him many times when he was a child especially cuz he wet the bed on nights. When I took care of my dad during hospice , the nurse had to put a catheter in him, because it was to hard to bring him to the bathroom , even though he had a catheter he kept saying he still needs to pee, I kept telling him , Dad you have a catheter in u don't have to go to the bathroom , you are safe, I didn't find out what he went thru as a child until my aunt , his older sister told me about this, then I realized why he was behaving this way. Because he was worried about wetting the bed.
3rd verse My dad always wanted another daughter to name Michelle , when my mother got pregnant with her 3rd child and was a girl my mother wanted to name her after her name Carolyn , and he reluctantly agreed. But she still brought him happiness my sister did bring my dad to enjoy Myrtle Beach and found starfish on the beach.
My dad passed away in April 2011 when the birds started singing in the spring (from prostate cancer at the age of 71. )
RIP Dad I Love you .I took care of him till the end
Greatest song ever, reminds me of my siblings, they are all in haaven. I dedicate this song to them love you ,miss you

Hello Patricia, how are you doing?
One of my all time favourite songs and singers. What a great performance this is. Damn but this takes me back to being 16 going on 17 again.
"Seasons in the Sun" is an English-language adaptation of the 1961 Belgian song "Le Moribond" ("The Dying Man") by singer-songwriter Jacques Brel. Merci megabien pour cette vidéo. A regarder et écouter sans modération en 2024 comme en 1974. 50 ans et toujours pas une ride (sauf sur mon visage) ! Ce morceau est sur ma playlist depuis sa création en 1979 et n'est pas prêt d'en sortir.

I used to hear this on the school bus every day in 3rd grade, just as we were leaving the school grounds.
Terry jacks is wonderful he's music brings back happy memories for me I was 16 in 1976 his voice is magical
Hello Sharon, how are you doing?
I am 57 this year and after 50 the years fly by I have seen some great people pass over of all ages - most of them fantastic and many did not make 60. You never know what can happen but I will say this I lived my life to the full following my heart I exhausted the subject in every area you can imagine - but life does not end here - Jesus Christ revealed himself to me powerfully in a hotel room in my mid twenties when I wasn’t really even looking for him he just cornered me - Room 211 of the Comfort inn in Orlando Florida in the 90s - I knew then that God existed and he wants us to live with him forever. - so it’s not over - if your heart is open he will come. Try him and see. God bless you all ❤️
Prima data ,am ascultat aceasta melodie acum45 ani Azi am găsit-o ,din întâmplare. Minunata

Hello Jane, how are you doing?
I've never been able to listen to this without getting goosebumps a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes. This is the first song I ever liked. I was five years old and played the 45 on my plastic toy record player hundreds of times. The song is so sad yet so beautiful.
I am two years old older ,childhood memories big time!
First record I ever bought. The song on the other side of the 45 was horrible 😭
TERRY JACKS I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!❤❤❤
I LOVE THAT SONG!!!❤
Hi Lillian 💐💐
Terry Jacks the maestro.Your voice is incredible. No difference.
He sounds just as good as he always no yelling no screaming just great music
beautiful song.live it .I was 3 years old when it came out .now I'm 50.god bless
Das waren noch Zeiten! Heute bin ich 73, finde den Song noch gut.
Jeez, I can remember this when it was riding high in the UK charts in early '74. That's 47 years ago... scary! Great voice then, get voice now. Lovely song.
I heard this song back in the early 70’s and it still resonates with me.
Beautiful song ❤️ Bravo 👏👏👏. Thank you very much ❤️
The first time I heard this song was in a bar called The Love Boat in La Crosse Wisconsin where the DJ was playing this. Now seeing Terry Jacks, he still has that voice and is looking good as well. Over the years I have wondered what he was up to.
Wow. A timeless song, a timeless voice. Thank you Terry.
Such a lovely song that has stood the test of time
