Thank God that I grew up in the sixties in Australia we are truly the lucky country!!!!! The rest of the world missed the talent boat and we had the best ride!
The most underrated singer in the history of popular Australian music! Everything Russell sings, he blows it out of the park!! Johnny Farmyard has nothing on this guy!
I grew up with and have heard all these songs but I had no idea his name was Russell Morris. Yet I know every major Australian artist of the last 50 years. Why is that? and what a discovery!
Saw him perform this (amongst others) at a private funtion in 2019. His still has an incredible voice, and is so humble and approachable. One of Australia's greatest talents ever.
Sensational artist, great music throughout his career and I never tire hearing his songs uo til this day. 1971 and I lived through the best decade of Aussie music.
I've seen Russell on 3 occasions and its been a pleasure and a honour At the end of the day you can't beat class Comes highly recommended too go and see Russell Morris live Cheers from Ollie from Franghanistan , Victoria
One of the Aussie Immortals of that 60s to 70s era... but Russell's songs weren't just pop songs to be forgotten. He is responsible for several of the most epic tracks of their time. Deserved worldwide recognition and got some but deserved so much more.

It is incredible how much Russell's magical voice appealed to little kids back then. I remember a little two yr old toddler whose eyes would open wide when she heard him singing on the TV She would rush in yelling " Wussell Mowiss ! " over and over then sit down right in front of the screen with a rapt smile, swaying with tears rolling down her face like a teenage groupie. It's like his clear, beautiful notes bring on some kind of natural spiritual connection that even young innocents can feel.
I’ve been a huge Russell Morris fan since the very early days. He was a wonderful singer/ songwriter then and he still knocks me out 50 years later. Thank you Russell, keep up the great work 😎

Such a talent. When he sings, he leaves nothing in reserve. Totally committed and how that shows!! Right up there with Shorrock and Stevie W. For me, no other Australian singers come close to these aces.....
I used to go and see Russell at the Doncaster Inn Hotel, Victoria. This was one of the go-to venues in the 80s to see bands like INXS, Little River band, Brian Cadd, Cold Chisel, Men at Work, and more. Had I known how iconic all these bands would become, I would have gone Thurs - Sunday. Russell was amazing live!
Sincerest sympathy, a prayer & mental hug go out to you. I've been widowed 20 yrs. & can tell you that life will get better. Live your life in honor of your mate. What a lovely song you shared with your special one. Take good care of yourself & please be safe in the days/months ahead.
My love to you I lost my Dad to MND 15 Years ago but I know he's no longer in pain Watching down on our family does as sure as your love one is doing the same 💜

An incredible voice and voice. First heard this when i was 6 in 1971. Love it just as much today. Timeless music that unfortunately most of the world has never heard of.

@@russellmorris6160 I live for Aussie music I'm proud of our musicians they have earnt their stripes the hard way I've followed your music for a long time I was fascinated by part three into paper walls loved Rachael and rocked to hide and seek and spent many years appreciating the real thing keep rocking mate
RM was such a great performer I was only 13 when I heard him sing and instantly fell for him he had hit after hit but didnt get the accolades he truly deserved his most famous records was The Real Thing which was used by Coke to promote their drinks...
Mmm just done some math Been singing this song for as long as I’ve been alive And seen him play it in concert just recently Still rocks it Just gets better like a fine wine with age go the real thing
Russell Morris's Sweet, sweet love, and Wings of An eagle are to of the best Aussies songs ever. Puzzled by the 14 dislikes, clearly no idea?! Almost 50 years old and stands the test time!
Just a beautiful song! Well ahead of its time IMO. What an amazing voice Russell has. Been listening to and loving this song for around 45 years now, thanks to my beautiful, late parents, who made sure I listened to great music for as long as I can remember ❤️❤️
The memories of my childhood my mother had the radio station on all day from the time she got up at 5:30 in the morning I listen to all of this music and it just brings it all flooding back again.🎉❤
One of the greatest vocalists to come out of Australia...a true legend.
Great memorabilia 🍂
Thank God that I grew up in the sixties in Australia we are truly the lucky country!!!!! The rest of the world missed the talent boat and we had the best ride!
Beautiful singer and so underrated
I'm sitting London January 2022, born in Perth. Haven't heard this song since early 70s Fcuking awesome.
BRILLIANT SO TALENTED
The songs of my Aussie childhood... is Russell Morris.. so talented, so underrated... xxx
Saw him live last night at the Brisbane Convention centre with an orchestra, absolutely fabulous he's still got it! Love his Blues stuff as well.
I'm a Kiwi in my early 70s, love his music, especially Rachel's Coming Home and Sweet sweet love. Fabulous!!
So many underrated talent in this country, deserve to be treated better than they have.
The most underrated singer in the history of popular Australian music!
Everything Russell sings, he blows it out of the park!! Johnny Farmyard has nothing on this guy!
Love love love him. One of the most brilliant Aus artists of our time, and so underrated. xxxxx
❤ so underrated ❤❤
Wings Of An Eagle. The best Song Ever
What a voice. I could listen to him all day. I was lucky enough to see him in person singing at a club a few times. ❤
Just love Russel Morris... one of those underrated Aussie legends 💕
it deserved to be global hit my in view, Russell
Many of that time did but yes this was so beautiful
Can’t count the times I’ve watched this … extraordinary talent…
Under rated ,he sits on saddys and raindrops shoulders forever.
The best and sweetest love song ever written...
Stunning melody...
And how on earth did he hold THAT note. OMG!
Adore!
Where are you from may i ask? NN ?
@@Lex-Hawthorn New Zealand..
You are brilliant thanks for your talent 💖💖💖
Just heard him live yesterday. Amazing to this day, sounds just as good.
I grew up with and have heard all these songs but I had no idea his name was Russell Morris. Yet I know every major Australian artist of the last 50 years. Why is that? and what a discovery!
Probably Australia's best singer of all time, yet he was never given the recognition he so deserved.
I think he has the recognition, but he didn't seek the limelight. It always struck me that the music was more important than the fame.
Jon English also had a fab voice and there were others, like the singer from Air Supply, even though I was never a massive fan
couldn't have said it better myself my friend.I am so fortunate to be going to see Russell the week after next,can't wait.
I agree totally.
They never are mate.
Saw him perform this (amongst others) at a private funtion in 2019.
His still has an incredible voice, and is so humble and approachable. One of Australia's greatest talents ever.
The one and only Russell Morris everlasting classic Aussie music x
How come John F was never HELD TO ACCOUNT???
HOLY SHIT!!!
An Amazing Voice.😊❤
Legend.
And definitely underrated compared to "Farnzy"!
I was 10 years old, never realized how privileged I was being around musicians who could sing like this. Thanks for the upload.
Yes…… yes and yes 👏
I agree 😊
What talent!!!
Love this song.
I grew up hearing his songs and they have become part of my history 💞
A MOST VALUABLE ARTIST,, I LOVE
BEAUTIFUL MUSIC LIKE THIS.💙🎶
Sensational artist, great music throughout his career and I never tire hearing his songs uo til this day. 1971 and I lived through the best decade of Aussie music.
Like a number of Australian singer/writers, totally underrated
So so true
This song is one of my most favourite songs
You have to see Russell live .. He is awesome. For me it's like he makes the world stand still when he performs. He takes over the room. Awesome.
Anywhere and everywhere he is!
I've seen Russell on 3 occasions and its been a pleasure and a honour
At the end of the day you can't beat class
Comes highly recommended too go and see Russell Morris live
Cheers from Ollie from Franghanistan , Victoria
I agree - was actually surprised. Not only did he make the room stand still, but everyone had a rockin' good time 🎶
@@chrisolsen1918 Greetings, fellow earthling, from a fellow Franghanistaner - though I got out of there a long time ago (was lucky!)
i have done sound for him a few times now. He gets better each time - currently with Jacky Barnes and Harry Brus - it's an awesome show.
Awesome Russell Morris - one of Australia's best entertainers!!!
Probably the first singer and music that my teenage self fell in love with. Russell Morris ❤️ Beautiful, beautiful voice.
I heard this song back home then in the 70's. Didn't know he's an Aussie. Amazing unique voice!!!
Awesome
A Haaaaaaaaaaaaaa we are a similar age and i had SUCH A CRUSH on him when i was 18 onwards. Gifted song writer and performer :-)
One of the Aussie Immortals of that 60s to 70s era... but Russell's songs weren't just pop songs to be forgotten. He is responsible for several of the most epic tracks of their time. Deserved worldwide recognition and got some but deserved so much more.
That song has been in my head and heart since I was a boy of 11. Russell Morris, you bloody Legend.

me too! Had me a Russell Morris tshirt back in the day - always loved him. I've seen him several times, he never disappoints
Puzzled by the 14 dislikes, clearly no idea?! Almost 50 years old and stands the test time!
Now 27. Stupid remains the same Steve!
Just bots. No one with a soul Fm
He is a Fantastic Singer i've loved his music for many years
I was 16 that year..I’m in love all over again 😜
brilliant song by a great Australian a in a great era of great music

One of the best songs I've ever heard and the music of this era outdoes anything of this (present 2020) time!
Steven Thomson are they still churning it out? I think it's dead and gone
It sure does! Best Era of Music ! Wish we could turn back time 😌
Agree, and his voice is freakin awesome
Still on my top 10 of all time. Has never shifted!
Such a talent. When he sings, he leaves nothing in reserve. Totally committed and how that shows!! Right up there with Shorrock and Stevie W. For me, no other Australian singers come close to these aces.....
He will get a kick out of this comment. I'm his kid sistar. He IS FABULOUS. CJ x
Good music will always stand the test of time ,from 1971 to 2020 nearly 5 decades later it is still amazing to listen to wow.

This was one of the go-to venues in the 80s to see bands like INXS, Little River band, Brian Cadd, Cold Chisel, Men at Work, and more.

Me also. AH ha ha Caroline x

Saw him live at a sold out Hamer Hall last year and he is still fabulous!
I can hardly see through the tears - great memories.
I lost my husband to MND almost 4 years ago sweet sweet love was our song after 33 years of marriage

I was nine and the music and the radio were the entertainment in our house. This song and many many others have stayed with me since the early 70s.
Me too, I was seven. Never forget those wonderful days and the great music blaring out of mum’s radio.
This is such a beautiful song I remember it also at age of 10 I always thought he was a 'Kiwi" definitely one up for the Ozzies'!!!
Sounds as good as this live awesome performer massively massively underrated wow wow see this guy live his voice is incredible
Russell is so special ❤

Super talented muso!
I was fortunate enough to see Russell along with Brian Cadd and others only a week ago here in Darwin. He is still great.
Stephen Seagrave wow Brian Cadd, now there's a name I haven't heard in years!
that's great Stephen,I am going to see him Sunday week in Canberra,cannot wait! Russell is one of my very favourite singers of all time.
kate davenporty , hey I was there too! What a great concert. Took me back. Didn’t Russell nail it! Still hit those high notes!
✌️ Blessings from Georgia USA 🙏🪶👆
Fabulous voice great song, one of the best ever.
Oh gawd ….it’s rather precious.
Love this song.
Great Grandpa used to sing it to his missus.
Wow, this song is actually a great one!
My god, this song is an all time great, I didn’t realise, so overlooked, in the vein of The Small Faces
Anyone else seen the recent Russel
Video. His voice is even sweeter now in his 60s
He might be a little older than that as I'm 66 turned 13 in 1971. But it doesn't matter.😊
I saw him live and he was fantastic!!!!

Great song. One of my favourites.
And it was a big hit....remembering...always on the airways...Sweet sweet love!
Wow. Never been a fan of Russell Morris until the other week I saw him on the APIA Tour. WOW, he really impressed me. He HAS GOT IT still.....
I think he’s been named to do 2019 APIA Tour. That’s enough for me to say I’m going again.
Mmm just done some math
Been singing this song for as long as I’ve been alive
And seen him play it in concert just recently
Still rocks it
Just gets better like a fine wine with age go the real thing
This song would have to be my most favourite and reminds me of my very early teens. It takes me back to places where l remember hearing it.
Without doubt one of the best voices ever even better live awesome bloke brilliant massively underrated
