  • Very Beautiful. Charming. Wonderful. A golden moment in time that cannot be duplicated today. Thank you for sharing.

  • This much underestimated Welsh folk singer was only 19 when she recorded this fine cover of the one of the most poignant of all the Beatles songs. Her singles, "Those Were the Days" and "Temma Harbour" were hugely popular and many thought her performance of “Knock, Knock Who's There?" in 1970 Eurovision Song Contest was unlucky to be shaded into second. She married the American record producer Tony Visconti and withdrew to raise a family, and by the time she returned her moment was gone.

  • @jucameron her moment is very much NOW... go to maryhopkinDOTcom take a look at all her new cd's

  • You took my heart at sweet 15 and there was never another time that happen I hope you were very happy in your life...

  • As much as I loved Mary and like this version I think those who say she "improved it" are in fantasy land. This version is pleasant, but misses the whole point of the song by slowing it down to a pedestrian pace.

  • Mary sings this Beatles song better than any of them ever did.

  • @3234718 Enjoy my channel too. from an audience at the Mary Hopkin Show held in Osaka.

  • It is such bullshit that I was born in 1983.

  • I have told my wife I wish to have this played at my funeral. It encompasses everything I would wish to say to everyone I know.

  • Some people are too beautiful...

  • Holy crap she looks like Barbie.

  • Outstanding. Everything Mary Hopkin touched she improved. An excellent cover of the Beatles classic. And Mary never looked more beautiful.

  • Ahhhh... beautiful times.

  • was paul fucking this, is that the connection?

  • @changeofaddress1

    please leave...

  • i dont get it

  • @changeofaddress1 I get it...very well. A beautiful timeless song sung very well by a pretty woman. Nice.

  • @changeofaddress1 I hope they delete your pathetic comment.

  • you guys are strange

    what i meant was why are we watching this why do we care

    it must be only because paul fucked it for a while got it a record deal etc

    if that bothers you youre dumb uptight victorians better off dead

  • @changeofaddress1 You don't get it do you? She was a good singer and has meaning to some people, her, and her music. It has nothing to do with Paul. The song was a huge hit. You're a pathetic rude troll. Nothing more.

  • this is selena gomez typing. dont you EVER call me a pathetic rude troll, or ill hurt your teddy bear

    HARD

  • @changeofaddress1 I already called you one! But, sounds like fun!

  • How lucky we are! In sixties, we were happy and didn't know, so much glad today, because I'm sixty years old; Have listened and lived among special human beens, in a memorable era, I"ve been waiting, but now I think that it could never happens again... Congratulations to all mankind (We've came in Peace for...1969)

    God bless you Mary.

  • @FonsecaWilliam Thank you for your thoughtful, reflective comment, "we were happy and didn't know [it] . . . Have listened and lived among special human beings, in a memorable era . . . ." Very true. I'm not sure why, but it brought a tear to my eye.

  • you can put her in a Teacup, she so darn Cute..

  • The women you all mention are beautiful in their own ways,Dental work? Look at Jewel! Quit trying to fix everyone! Subtle little flaws are what make us who we are! This woman of the angelic voice is still to this day a true knockout! Check out her website! Cool too that she's still recording! And that she'd covered quite a few of Jim Croce's songs.This one's one of her best in my opinion..Just Sayin..

  • That is the most stunning woman i have ever seen.

    I'm only 30 but why can't they make singers like that nowadays?!

  • I really enjoyed watching and listening to the video but when I read some of the comments I can't imagine where their inspiration lay.  Mary is who she is and it's her music. no one is forcing anyone else to listen. I listen because it pleases me, thanks Richpat

  • thank u

  • I adore this song

  • marvelous job mary!!!!--john & paul should be proud

  • OOOh what a pretty little Welsh girl !!!

  • @jsilence418 I dunno. Sorta more like homely-cute to my yankee take.

  • @jsilence418 I dunno. Sorta more like homely-cute to my yankee take. I like her performance though.

  • @coyotesong Oh I don't think so , all she needed was a little dental work done but after all she is british! as for yankee take ,wait now friend you gave the world horse faced uglies like sarah jessica parker , so you can't talk!

  • @jsilence418 Do we have to claim her??!! Ugh!! How bout Jennifer Aniston?? She's adorable. And there are some great Brit beauties too like Emma Watson! And love Alizee from across the Channel.

  • @coyotesong You of course are right! but i never saw much in jennifer aniston personally!

  • I love Mary check her out in robin Williams the grim rapper hilarious song it features those were the days

  • Actually, for the music Mary has done over the years, she plays guitar well enough.

    Lovely voice, very talented.

  • @goodolarchie Hi, just been to your channel to look at your guitar playing on your video uploads and there are'nt any! I feel really strongly about unwarranted criticism which borders on rudeness. Ms Hopkin can/does play the guitar very well. Please feel free to post your guitar skills and allow us all to give our opinion.

  • @richpat Oh relax! Do you get this angry every time somebody posts something contrary to your opinion on the internet? I'm not running out to buy a digital camera just so you can rub snot on it.

  • @goodolarchie i'm not angry, actually I am feeling extremely calm and relaxed, you posted what I believed to be an unfair criticism, and I responded to it. Your reply on the other hand has an extreme feeling of anger in it, If you dont want feed back then don't post?

  • @goodolarchie She plays guitar very well..Check out other videos of her playing

  • Very good vocal of The Beatles song! Thanks for putting it up. Mary is a lovely Performer.

  • Nice version!

  • Awesome never seen or heard Mary do this song.

  • One of my all time fave songs,thanks for posting
