  • I hate watching this movie!!! The songs are so catchy and adorable that they get stuck in my head for weeks!! I still wanna watch it though X3

  • Pete is so adorable <3

  • A true childhood favorite. Thanks for sharing.

    

  • "It's not easy to find someone who cares".... watched Pete's Dragon many times this week with sick grandkids... great memories

  • absolutely loved it when i was a child and still love it. so good for kids to see.

  • i watched this all the time when i was a kid....i knew all the songs by heart! ~adam

  • I used to watch this when I was a little girl. :(

  • Whatever happened to this little Wranga

  • Hahah... a tear jerker for us old people, that's for sure.

  • one of my favorite songs of all time from this movie <3 im actually soo glad my mom showed me this movie...for an 18 year old i love it lol

  • love this song... it brings back my childhood.

  • This song is one I will always remember from when I was a child. Its just one of those songs that really makes you appreciate what a true friend or loved one is all about :)

  • I sing this song and candle on the water to my baby girl and she just stares at me in the cutest little way. One of those amazing moments in life. Great Movie Too!

  • Thank you! One of my all time favorites. Now that I am older this song has so much more meaning.

  • Helen...you are still the best singer I've known !!!! Great music...great songs..great movies.....Really miss you.... I play your albums all the time....

  • Beautiful stuff like this turned in to 50 cent & Ke$ha how?

  • It's so sad that kids these days don't have appreciation and interest for great movies like this. I was at the library the other day and a young father and his 5-year-old daugter were looking in the videos. He picked up Petes dragon from the rack and asked her if she wanted to watch it and she said no, then he started to argue w/her about how it was his and her mother's favorite movie or whatever. I feel like kids watch too much spongebob crap to know what real entertainment is.

  • @artist4christ26 Naww can't you have the best of both worlds, Miley style? XD Stop saying crap like 'real entertainment' everything is good, just to different people.

  • I had this song in my head this morning for some reason and I needed to hear it. Thank you for doing this. It brought relief to my life.

  • I introdueced this movie to my 4 year old daughter and now this is the song she wants to sing at bedtime....and she gets so made if I don't do it with her :D

  • I wish they would make more musicals like this - good, genuine family entertainment. Cheaper by the Dozen just doesn't cut it by comparison.

  • This reminds me of a time when musicals were good.

  • I ALWAYS CRY WHEN I HEAR THIS SONG. Something about it really makes me happy. 

  • I've never seen this movie, but when I was very little the local library had a cassette tape and book of lyrics featuring Disney songs I'd always rent and it included this song. For years, I found myself humming the song but not remembering the lyrics or where I'd heard the song from. Now I've found it and really need to see this movie.

  • Oh my childhood. Classics like this make me want to go back 15 years, when all we cared about was going to school, making friends, and enjoying the innocence of our youth.

  • Haha, I had the GREATEST dream about this movie last night. I was at the lighthouse, and Nora just kept hugging me and hugging me, and offering me chowder. Her dad was of course, drunk. I went to talk to him, hahaha! Nora pulled me out of the room gently, and didn't scold me, but I could tell I did something wrong. Then the characters from Bedknobs and Broomsticks came and started doing magic. lololol, it was SO weird!

  • @xXSunnyKimXx

    Sounds like you had a great night!

    My favorite childhood dream that I still remember is building sand castles with Nils Holgersson when I was about 4 and had just been introduced to colour tv ;-)

    As for Elliot, my aunt who used to babysit me and my cousin a lot had three (3) videos: Dumbo, Pete's dragon and Son of godzilla. My cousin thought Dumbo was childish so we must have watched Pete's dragon at least 50 times! That one video was all we needed :-)

  • @xXSunnyKimXx: Bet their telling you to watch those movies for old time sake :3

  • My favorite line is when she sings: "It's clear, that friends can be different. Yes, I understand you know." She thinks he's speaking figuratively when he's really being literal.

  • @niuchemist

    That line gets me every time! It's so simple, and so rife with meaning. "I understand you" can mean "I understand what you're saying" (that is, she understands his description of the dragon) or it can mean "I understand you as a person"- she sees what he's all about, and why it was necessary for him to create this "imaginary" companion to cope with the trauma he's been through.

  • This movie has a lot of memorable songs.

  • please tell me why I cried 5 seconds into this song clip??? =(

  • @cherryblossom013579 When I first saw it (well, saw it for the first time in probably 20 years), I cried too. I was like WTF is wrong with me!!?? It was weird.

  • @zakiechan I didn't have very many friends as a little kid, and this song expressed the ideal of a good friendship. That's why it still makes me cry.

  • @cherryblossom013579 I do too whenever i watch this!!

  • @cherryblossom013579 i didn't cry, but got chills...i think maybe cause it reminded me of my great childhood!

  • I saw this in Sandusky Ohio in 1977 at the theater downtown Sandusky. I loved it then and still do. I caught myself singing Candle on the Water and Brazzle Dazzle Day at my job. I just had to look up this on youtube because it's been on my mind. What ever happened to the actor who played Pete?

  • CLIMB THE HIGHEST TREE WITHHHHHH... lol.

  • im 14 i love this movie i watch it all the time this is a true classic thumbs up if u agree!!!!!!

  • OMG, I was crazy about this when I saw this ages ago.. And I still am! Great song!^^

  • How could people replace this with High Schoo Musical?!

  • Reddy Should Have Got An Oscar Nod! At Least A Golden Globe Nod!!

  • I know what u mean zakiechan this song brings a tear to my eye also it's also true that it's not easy finding a friend or someone who will listen to u

  • I didn't even realize that this was Helen Reddy till like 3 weeks ago!

  • @syd204-You did not realize that was Helen Reddy? You must be retarded

  • @DVDFreaker well considering the fact that when I saw the film it was like 18 years after it had been originally released and I was only a little kid...How many little kids do you know that are familiar with Helen Reddy plus I know her now!! And Who the fuck are you anyways?

  • @syd204-Your worst nightmare!

  • lol for us old timers love this movie

  • @pwalrod420 I ain't no old timer but I love this movie.

  • I really like how Pete goes from the silly description of the dragon to the serious life lesson of how life isn't easy alone. It makes this movie all the better!

  • Mickey Rooney also played Tod in The Fox and the Hound.

  • I have the Masterpiece Collection VHS of "Pete's Dragon".

  • oh my goodness i LOVE the way pete says him: "heem and yooou." lol

  • that dike can sing!

  • well, i have to go watch this movie now :) i forgot how much i love this

  • Ok that's scary that...After all these years I still know all the words to this song flawlessly!! LOL

  • quality!!! the best diney film ever

  • Helen Reddy Is Beautiful!!

  • that is one of the greatest movies of all time....old disney if the best <3 when walt disney died they lost tht one true meaning to disney

  • This was mine and my partners FAVOURITE movie growing up.  We didn't relise this till i brought it and put it on for our two kids........and guess what their favourite movie is now! Love singing along with my kids to the songs that made me so happy as a child.....just the best feeling!

  • This is on flipnote studio so hilarious!!!

  • nice to be from the ones you know that you love them as well.

  • Comment removed

  • I LOVE this song!! Even though the lyrics are sung with a child's melody, the Lyrics are soooo adult, man, this song touches my heart! No, "it's not easy" to find that ever elusive "soul mate"!

  • Love this, reminds me of our two girls when they were young, couldn't stop them watching it lol miss those days.lil and chim where are you?.lol

  • love this song. it just helps me believe that love can cure all (even abuse). for me growing up this tape got so much play i'm surprised it still works. thanks for posting this

  • To it now, I am amazed because that deep ache that used to fill my heart has been replaced with the immense love that I have for my husband, who has loved and supported me even when it wasn't easy. God bless the people who made this beautiful movie, and everyone who has been touched by this song, and any of the songs from this movie for that matter.

  • @daniknispel You give me hope :) God bless YOU.

  • Thank you for posting this. When I was a little girl, my world was a very, VERY dark place. I had a little tape recorder and I recorded this song off of the tv. It used to make me cry so hard. I would wish that I could have someone who would love and care for me the way Nora does for Pete. I think this movie resonated a lot with me as a child because (regardless of how gently they talk about it) Pete was running away from abusive people and found a place where he belonged. When I listen t

  • This movie is waiting for me at home, I'm so excited!!!!! <3 I love this film, I'm so sad that not very many people have seen it.

  • 5 people didnt like this because they had an INCREDIBLE fear of Elliot the Dragon

  • Interesting. I used to HATE this movie! A few months ago, I finally decided to give this movie a chance, and now I LOVE it! Elliott is hilarious, Helen Reddy is extremely talented with the singing voice of an angel, Mickey Rooney is an interesting drunk, and Pete has the most unusual friend in the world.

  • ....When I was about 3, I used to watch this film and I thought Nora (thats her name right? XD) said "Its not easy, to find magical pears" as in the fruit XD

  • @luxurychoccie She says "Magic in pairs"

  • @BigMatt39

    Oh I know that now :') I said I thought that when I was 3 lol XD

  • does anyone know how to play this song on piano?

    i love this movie:)still my fav.

  • love this movie!! Brings back memories from my childhood!! Thanks for posting :)

  • ty 4 this

  • I think everyone actually would need an Elliot as a guidance through life:)

  • i'm 20 years old and i love this movie soooo much. i'm pretty much a disney freak.( but mostly old disney movies)

  • @actresscutie

    I am 28 and I can assure you: you´ll keep that love. I think the old Disney movies are just timeless and appeal to every age because they actually deal with issues of real life. I miss those kind of movies...

  • Me and My sister and Cousins loved this when we were like 6 and now one of the cousins are 18 and we love it even more!!!

  • awwwww i miss this movie so much i feel like crying

  • I am so glad that my family owns the Laser Disc of this movie! Yes you read right folks, Laser Disc!

  • its the damndest thing i have been goin through a rough time lately, and i remember when i was a child i used to watch this movie and now 22 years later it still sticks in my mind, must be for a reason and this was my favorite song in the whole movie. its wierd how the mind works

  • @beans06

    I understand you so well...It´s kind of healing to listen to this. It brings up so many emotions...It´s incredible how you keep these memories of your childhood deep in your soul.

  • first time watching this is in 4 years

  • hehe this bring backs sooo many memories :) just watched it w/ someone special and i was likes "sowry if this seemed gay to you" and he' s like "nah, its cool" lol wonder what he's thinking xDD buts gahhhhhhhhhh love this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This used to be my favourite song from the movie (I was 5 at the time).

    Funny thing is, I would probably download this and put it on my iPod and still listen to it. :)

  • wonderful song and movie

  • Oh, this really takes me back!

  • The movie Pete's Dragon for me was so inspiring as at the time I saw this movie it was the 1st movie I had ever seen in a movie theatre & @ that time of my life the movie had tough me that no matter how big or how small a problem is you can get through it.. When I had seen this movie I was separted from my twin & was going into the foster care system & this movie at also tough me that if Pete could find a friend like Nora then we all can

  • @blueyes0170 Pete's Dragon the movie is & was a movie that we all should see no matter our age for me the movie came into my life when i was going through a hard time in life & it taught me that we all can make it no matter what we are going through & this has shown me that no matter who or what we are we are all the same & that friends come to us in many ways

  • @blueyes0170 yeah im feeling what you say. its really not easy, but once you find a true friend, life gets a little bit better. life is never easy, friends are important i think that the meaning of the song

  • Aaaw, long time ago... I remember that song from the German version! It's the only song that I still can remember today. Maybe I should watch it the movie again, but the problem I have is that we can't play video tapes anymore... *sigh*

  • my old elementary school remixed this for the moving up ceremony

  • my old elementary school remixed this for the moving up ceremony

  • my old elementary school remixed this for the moving up ceremony

  • Comment removed

  • @lpvcrcd I agree Helen Ready did have a lot of in her day

  • I havent seen this in forever.

  • i love this song and i haven't seen this movie in about 15 years

  • for some reason the music of this movie was like a spiritual experience to me as a child...and it works the same magic today

  • How true is that!

  • My daughters 3 and she loves this song, Listening to this made me remember the days when she use to try and sing along! Thanks for the upload

  • This brought back some great memories Thank you.

  • thanks for uploading! <3 this song

  • the best way to download this mp3 from youtube is to google mp3iiify.

  • Great post from Big Matt. Lovely scene and love song.

  • i brought this movie for my mom on Valentines day. because this is something special for us. Since i grew up on musical's like this. And i played it for my daughter, she stood near the tv and danced to the music..it was so cute since she is only 1 year 9 months

  • the caboose of the old disney magic.

  • absolutely. None of the new Disney musicals have any of the memorability of the older ones. I miss the Sherman brothers and the others terribly.

  • Nora: u got to tend it, fan it. Pete: that's what I plan to do. Oh, I had one friend by my side, now I have two, him and you. Nora: Him & Me. Both: and it's so easy.

  • Nora: It's clear, that friedns can be different, yes I understand you now. Both: it's not easy, to find someone who cares, it's not easy, to find Magic in pairs. Nora: Now that you have him, hold him, treasure him from day to day, it's so easy. Life is lollipops & raindrops, with the one you love. Someone u can always be with, argue & agree with. Pete: Climb the highest tree with. Both: It's so easy, to share somebody's dream, it gets easy, when u work as a team. (last of lyrics in next comment)

  • Pete: *sings* He has the head of a camel, then neck of a crocodile. Nora: It sounds rather strange. Pete: He's both a fish & a mamal, and I hope he'll never change, cause it's not easy, to find someone who cares. Nora: It's not easy, to find Magic in pairs. Pete: I'm glad I found him, I love him, I won't let him get away, cause it's not easy. Nora: You say, the head of a camel, the neck of a crocodile, Pete: and the ears of a cow! (continued in next comment)

  • Nora: So, YOUR the boy with the dragon! Pete: Yup

    Nora: Well, where is he?

    Pete: Down in the cave.

    Nora: That's interesing. I've never known anyone with a dragon before what does he look like?

    Pete: Just a plain, ordinary dragon.

    Nora: How plain? How Ordinary?

    (Music begins & here r lyrics in next comment)

  • This was a personal favorite of mine.

    "How plain? How Ordinary?" hehehe ^-^

    I love the songs so much, and they're done well <3

  • It was a great movie and a wonderful song. I believed Helen could makes any song just wonderful.

  • The movie wasn't bad, but the songs were irritating.

  • a classic, i love this movie and all the songs. just a great film. i wiish they could still make classics like this these days.

  • this is such a wonderful and beautiful film/song! Who's playing the woman?

  • helen reddy..singer one of the best of all time...

  • i love watching this when i was little but the first part i was scare how those ................ hobos i think would torture pete like that

  • Thank you for sharing this...

  • when I was little me and my mom used to watch this movie every single day

  • I love this movie with all my heart cause this song was my Grandpa's and Mine song...but now we dont live together anymore <3

  • @MusicalMel1991 I just uploaded this movie in 14 parts. All musical parts are solid w/o cuts between parts. I'll share the playlist with you.

  • I'm gonna get this movie again and try again to upload it in parts for everyone to see the movie. If there is anyone who does just leave a comment on my channel.

  • but the only song I don't know lyrics too is umm Passamaquaddy, and Money by the pound.

  • JUST GOT THE MOVIE TODAY, know ALL lyrics to ALL songs. In fact I'll put the lyrics to the songs I DO know from Pete's Dragon.

  • When I was a child I got in trouble in Kindergarten for not letting any other kids under the slide because "Elliot the dragon" was under there. Many Many years later I still pretend he's around sometimes,

  • @DScully8 

  • @FallApartAgain Wow.....HAHAH

  • @FallApartAgain There's medication for that! j/k...very cute story!

  • @FallApartAgain So true... I had a pet dragon growing up too...

  • i adore this song! it always brings a happy tear to the eye and always reminds me of my boyfriend and the beautiful friendship we share :)

  • I wore out the video in our local video renting shop because I borrowed it almost every week for about 3 years!

    I don't know why my parents didn't just buy me a copy!

  • Great memories. Thank you.

  • haha. My mom used to sing this to me when I was really little. Thanks for posting it! ^^

  • This movie is incredible

  • I grew up in 50's with many great Disney movies BUT this bypasses all movies ever! QUALITY child and adult entertainment. Don't be misled by the dragon. A very clever and touching presentation having huge stars, adult hidden humor, fine music, and laughs.

    We need this type of movie in the lives of our youngsters again. Imagine a movie with no murder and no "F" words. And still a riot and fun!!!

  • @wendydale1 I have a three week old baby boy and cant wait till he is old enough to watch this. I loved this film as a child. Probably the best childrens film ever.

  • :P LOVE IT!

  • I love this! My childhood was surrounded by movies like this.

  • This song really make me cry :')

  • really?

    me too

    (i thought i was being too sensitive.lol)

  • This song describes my friendship with my friend Jacob..i love him more than my own life .

    it really makes me cry we they are in the cave an at the end wen elliot has to go an help another kid soo cute love this film :D xx

  • They don't make movies like this anymore. Clever, funny, and unbeatably original...with a female lead who is both nurturing and feminine without sacrificing her innate kick-assedness.

  • thanks for posting. this has always been one of my favorite movies. (and songs)

  • This is my most favorite song in the whole movie. Brazzle Dazzle Day is my second favorite.

  • i love the way she looks at the child with love

  • @stuckinafishbowl2009

    I have rarely read such a beautiful comment. Thank you.
