Tkere is a very popular Swedish version of this song from the early sixties - and you remebmber me of my boyfriend from those years. He was youngerb but he looked and sang a bit like you!
Thanks for posting this song. It's been one of my favorites since I first heard it about five or ten yeard ago (on a Simon and Garfunkel double or triple CD set). Anyway, I like your peaceful rendition of this classic peace anthem. Take care, Jim
For instance, I have not been responding to individual comments, because I don't want to push them off the bottom of the page. I figure the comment box is for YOUR use. Am I wrong? Would you prefer one-on-one responses? I assure you, I do VALUE them individually!
Isn't it funny -- actually, no it isn't -- that a song from the 1950s is still relevent today. Poets, artists, musicians should ideally test the contraints and limits of "the real world."
This here is a fine rendition, shas1814. I'm giving you five stars now, and will come back and give another five later.
I've attached a video response above -- I hope you think it fits, for after our dream we must awake again, hopefully to beauty, love, renewed possibilities for our children.
Excellent job..noce one

Dear Santa, this song is very sweet. Why are you hiding your eyes behind those dark glases? I don't care seeing a tear.

I find that so many songs from the '60s and '70s
are needed and appropriate again today.
I don't know WHY you like my videos, folks,
but I'm delighted that you do.
I'm open to suggestions, too.
For instance, I have not been responding to individual comments, because I don't want to push them off the bottom of the page. I figure the comment box is for YOUR use. Am I wrong? Would you prefer one-on-one responses? I assure you, I do VALUE them individually!
