The chorus sounds like it came from the Roger Whitaker version!

[jilsud]

SORRY, but POP TOP S is the original version, the first.

[daniel0101able]

@jilsud Yes this is the most popular version but not the pop tops written by.

i know that .

[jilsud]

It's the V.O. (original)

In France, NICOLETTA sing this song in french (soo, Dalida, Joël Daydé, etc...)

[moprama]

@jilsud No, the french version (Nicoletta's verson) is the original. It was first written by "Hubert Giraud" for Nicoletta (1970), and then translated and interpreted by other singers (such as Horace Andy, Pop Tops(1971) and other...)

[daniel0101able]

@jilsud well this song was written by Hubert Giraud and after that there are many singer sung this .

here some exemple(from wikipedia)

-Spanish,José Mercé

-Italian,Dalida

-German,Ricky Shayne

-hungarian,Kati Kovács

-Finnish,Kirka Babitzin

[adoken2]

@donpro2003

For the verse

I haven't bothered to count out the bars but these are the basic chords and you should be able to hear where each change comes. hope it helps

I still think they have some way of knowing we love them where ever they are in the next world.

Funny, I like every single version of this incredibly beautiful song, including this one. A pity the clip is cut short.

[oyehoyehoye]

Just curious.

wondering where these folks are from?

and is this an original tune or taken from somewhere else (eg another language)?

Nonetheless, great piece.

[Demiurgo82]

They're from Madrid (Spain) (1967)

Excellent song, actually my first record ever. I was 3, in Paris at the time. I recall every single note and feel a lot of emotion. It is this very version, the cover was purple, writing was in white. Still picture it ! God, it still sounds pretty damn good !

Roger Whitaker also did a good cover(both in french and german).

This is how I got to know the song,　stil love it today. As for roger he has a special place in my heart as he sang some great songs in multiple languages. And his whistling is superb.

[vegaslover777]

Three days ago I was in the car and they played this song on 1050 CHUM (Toronto) and it's been in my head torturing me ever since!

Oh Mammy oh Mammy Mammy blue oh Mammy blue, oh Mammy oh Mammy oh Mammy Mammy blue, oh Mammy blue oh Mammy Blue Oh Mammy oh Mammy Mammy blue oh Mammy blue, oh Mammy oh Mammy oh Mammy Mammy blue, oh Mammy blue oh Mammy Blue somebody shoot me

[vegaslover777]

But it is a great song.

[IKatchSkams]

Oh mamy, Oh mamy mamy, BLUE OH MAMY BLUE.....

The house we shared upon the hill.....oh mamy, mamy....

I've been through all the walks of life....seen tired days and lonely nights and now without you by my side....HOW WILL I SURVIVE????

[vegaslover777]

Phil Trim has such a soulful voice.

[IKatchSkams]

He sure does and I believe this is the best rendition because it makes you "feel" something. It is personal...everybody and "get it".

[Dawix665]

O_o  OLD o_O

[AleysterCrowleyPE]

Uma Música Super Tocante Em Minha Vida!!!!!!!!

[pieperx]

[mnweni]

Mammy Blue sung by Charisma was top of the Charts in South Africa for 12 weeks in 1971. It was number 1 for 8 weeks in Rhodesia. Good times those.

[gingermegstillrockin]

This song brings back memories from 1972 when my mother played the record.

I was sick home from school aged 6 but i remember it like yesterday because she got upset and cried.Not like her.Stuck in my mind

Thinking of her mum who died when she was very young.Poor Mum.Where would we all be without our mamy.

[kienvan09]

[dejahoje]

[apia6000]

No 1 in my heart from my childhood!!

[anobeese]

I agree,But did they sang the original version.Can u tell who sang the Original Version of the Song?

[joeluciano]

This is the original. The Pop Tops were a Spanish band with a Trinidad singer called Phil Trim. There is a Spanish version of this song as well.

[porksword8]

The song was written by Frenchman Hubert Giraud. Joel Dayde had the first hit with it in France & he later recorded an english version that did well in Australia. Roger Whittacker also had a hit in England at about the same time. The song was then picked up by a spanish group called Los Pop Tops.

A number of other people have recorded the song including Julio Iglesias & Celine Dion.

[4flaga]

'Mamy Blue' was written by Frenchman Hubert Giraud. He got the idea for it in a traffic jam apparently! After that, the sequence of events is unclear. At some point Giraud sent it to an Italian producer and it was recorded by 16-year old Ivana Spagna. Joel Dayde picked it up and had a hit with it in France and so too did Nicoletta.

[4flaga]

Meantime Los Pop Tops' Phil Trim got hold of it and wrote English lyrics for it, and had a minor hit in US and UK. Joel Dayde's English version went to #3 in Australia, and Roger Whittaker had a UK hit with it too. It's hard to establish who first had a hit with it, because most of these versions charted around the same time (late '71). I guess one thing is certain - the first person to actually sing it was Hubert Giraud in that fateful traffic jam!

[vernthestern]

Sorry,I knew the producer for Pop Tops,who also produced "Black is Black"by Los Bravos ..

Pop Tops did the original version and outsold everybody worldwideexcept France,USA,where The Stories did a version and the UK .

The mistake the producer made is to play it for other producers in the recording complex,they immediately copied the idea..there is nothing he could do.

[Glume001]

Plz i would like to know who is the owner of the song,is it french or english in original?yet i really like the performance of Ricky.

[chrisbreizh29]

french, 1971 hubert giraud for nicoletta.

[vernthestern]

It is a french song originally

Nicoletta recorded it after Hubert Giraud realised Alain Milhaud was making a hit with it!

That's why Pop Tops lost France..

But POP TOPS outsold everybody worlwide.

[vernthestern]

The original writer is Hubert Giraud..

The producer Alain Milhaud loved the song,and had The singer from Pop Tops Phil Trim write the original Lyrics in English.

THIS IS the original version and the BEST!

[anobeese]

I agree,But did they sang the original version.Can u tell who sang the Original Version of the Song?
