Tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree

[98katz]

This is the music to my dads funeral, we all placed yellow ribbons on his coffin to show how much he mean't,I was 14 yrs and I still love it at 34.......He was a cancer patient not a prisoner.Either way I love the song.

[LOVEINDIAMUSIC]

I AM COMING HOME TO YOU BABY....U KNOW WHAT TO DO IF YOU STILL WANT ME...

[Pussigaloreuk]

relith, beginning to wish I was that chick in Australia xxxxxxxxxxxxx

[Pussigaloreuk]

I so loved this song back in the day .lolxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[vaggo55]

Esta canción es muy hermosa en música y letra, una de mis favoritas.

[rellith]

I'm a black metal person.. i hate pop and my style of music would make baby jesus cry yet this song is still in my playlist and my mates think i'm gay for having it :P screw em this song rocks

[XMcMuffinX]

@rellith Dude, YOU rock. I'm a rocker myself, and this is a good song. I also love "Out Of Touch" by Hall & Oates, it was the #1 song the week I was born.

[rellith]

@XMcMuffinX omg i know that song.. holy crap i never knew what it was called... dude if you were a chick in australia i would so come over to give you a sloppy kiss ROFL!!

[JENNYROBERTS100]

[MrAntuca]

Hummm so nice...xx.

[AMStationEngineer]

This song would be playing on the PA system during the approach and landing of our KC-135R, after extended NATO deployments in usually polar areas. More than once it set the tone for happy or sad news from family/friends upon our arrival. After a 7-month deployment in '85, my wife greeted us at reception at Dover AFB, visibly 8 1/2 months pregnant with our daughter, Meg, and wearing a white dress and yellow bow around her mid-section. A set-up, I was the only one unaware. She's an M.D. now...

[alanrodrigues400]

@AMStationEngineer : I'm sure memories like that one would stay forever with you, wouldn't they !! :-) God bless ya !!

[euroman32589]

@AMStationEngineer ..nice story..gave me the shivers. best of hapiness to you and your's.

[AntoinetteAcosta]

absolutely love this song.

[benpw12]

a great feelgood tune, we need stuff like this in these trying times! Weed is also an option

[v10letwho]

oh mahn i wish i had weed...

[elliments]

soooooo..... what happened to real songs nowadays

[gomerpyleism]

In the early 1970s this song was played on every radio station at least 5 times a day.

You could never get away from it......It became a cliche

[AprilStoutHeart]

I like the lyrics.

[MrDarrell50]

I am 48 and lived through this time of music and I really don't like most of the music we have today. most of it is just people yelling and screaming. I really like the stuff from the 50's and 60's. I wished I could have lived back then. KAT

[lucydoll6]

Refreshing!

[daveygoravey]

the snapper.:):)

[rweerakkody4565]

108 Bieber fanatics

[schnisha95]

Thank you for the upload~

[chrisdiaz816]

[deepimpacty]

いい歌だ。

[Luisajmz]

Great song,oldy but goody

[joodmcg]

Well it looks like 107 people dont know why they are flagging this down, if it dosent please your ears dont listen to it, instead of coming on after you've hear 2 notes of the song then dissing it. GET REAL PEEP'S

[vsvittal]

My ten year old grandson instantly liked this as his favourites ! No wonder !! Voi-la !!!

Most enjoyable for all timers !

[ElvesAndDragons]

Im a teenager and I prefer my mothers music. "Oldies" as people say. They are sweeter, more relaxing and just HAPPY. Better than rap music by far!

[killmachinefart]

totally getting high to this !!

[Rubyhot4]

wat a pleasant, beautiful song..

[shaftsbury94]

take a yellow arrow in the old old knee.

[giglio33012]

Man....I am a souless mofo but just to think that you have been in prison and your girl ties not one but ONE HUNDRED yellow ribbons around a tree really brings tears to my eyes...damn, nowadays the girl will probably choke you with the ribbons when she sees you....

[TheHasanMurat]

Perfect song, when you sprung out from prison.

[littleyellowkite]

How many remember watching Tony Orlando and Dawn on tv??

[mirnapardal]

love this song so much. Great memories

[CRAZYMONKEY4545]

My music taste is fucked but awesome... I love screamo, emo, emo core, and yet I also like the old classics like this.... I'm also 15 and I get looked at funny when people hear this on my ipod xD I love my music!

[fatustwatus]

my mother loved this so do i

[Ornido101]

[JaniceCaillet]

I LOVE this song!!!!!!!!!!

[TheAxisz]

[1000whitedusts]

[runnynight]

A boy sent this song to me and I think I am in love with that boy now =_=

[thegeezerdan]

Top tune.

[vitalodion]

God these are gonna be 3 long years!!

[Brookenesss]

This has got to be one of my favourite songs. (:

[anoymoose]

This was my Granddads favorite song before he died, on the second anniversary of his death we tied yellow ribbons around the big tree that was next to his grave. It's been 4 years since you've gone Granddad and I miss you <3

[Staudinka]

@anoymoose Man, I just watched a sad movie and now I read your comment, can't help but cry

[TheSololobo]

@anoymoose perfect, this got to me.

[MarksSpace]

"Boozin'Susan",

Yes, it was apparent you were joking- kind of clever and nutty if you picture it.

There's room for all forms of humor, and if you can't chill and crack corny jokes, this world is a sad place indeed.

PS Plenty of AA groups in your area, I'm sure. : )

[dollyandtoffee]

It's such a cutest song,symbolically that's he's been away for 3 years(or whatever) . Wanting to get back to his sweetheart, but just look for a good sign, to be sure.

[trifulquita15]

ok this is Weird, i was thinking about this song, i didnt know the title or the author/singer nothing, i just clic on this video idk why, then its the song. Premonition? LIFE IS WEIRD

[WestKori]

where is the last verse, he's supposed to get off the bus!

[NYboy1992]

I know this is said all the time but man I never choose favorites but damn if this has gotten closer than anything else. This is just such a great song in every way. It reminds us of all the good things in life.

[kd5hms63]

What a timeless 'feel good' song of the seventies that will always be in style!

[booziesuzie]

I'm guessing that Tony Orlando got arrested for being a stalker in "Knock 3 Times" and he still stalking... :D "I'm coming home I've done my time..." Her: "Oh shit the stalker from upstairs is back!"

[Rwings73]

@booziesuzie Have another drink, get another DUI, hopefully you will not kill anyone, and you are sentenced to life with no parole. Everyone wins. This is the best scenario. And I will speak for everyone! Everyone will thank me later.

[booziesuzie]

@Rwings73 Did you really not get that it was a joke? Perhaps you'll get a sense of humour for Christmas.

[1959starchild]

tie a yellow ribbon is a movie as well.

[Rao665]

Lets hope our guys come home safe. Merry Christmas everyone.

[DownWitTheClown2009]

<3 it

[TimeForFunGuy]

Grandma Ethyl sang this on DINOSAURS.

[chiehfan517]

I LOVE THIS SONG!

[1959starchild]

I can't understand what the problem is with the song tie a yellow ribbon around the old oak tree is all about all i ask was this song done bye Tony Orlando and Dawn. This song means nothing to me except the title of the song is also amovie with the same name that's all thanks for your input.

[Rao665]

@1959starchild hahahhahahah I think that person was just spamming, and really didn't bother to read your comment.

[1959starchild]

Oh well It's been many,many many years since I heard any thing from Tony Orlando and Dawn I wasn't saying I hated this song I just couldn't remember how sang this song no big deal ok lol.

[Loverboy19691]

love this song, they dont make them like this anymore.

[gerger06]

ayh. this songs for cory. yellow ribbon kasi

[1959starchild]

Is this done by tony orlando and dawn

[lu5tic]

@1959starchild you shouldn't hate anyone young one,

hate is a mask for jealousy insecurities etc etc,

that's a fact, hating on others is for people with low self esteem

haitng to make themselves feel better,

JUST SAYIN ! don't hate, wish well !

Best wishes !

[anc1965]

@1959starchild yes it certainly is...truly classic tune from 1973...

[seanseet123]

im 15 and i prefer old legendary songs like this =)

i dont diss on newer songs but i just prefer this =)

PS...i seriously hate bieber xD

[toinkz888]

@seanseet123 Good for you!

[EpicBunty]

@seanseet123 so what if youre fucking 15 ? fuck , on every other classical song video , i see a shitty comment like this. im 13 blah blah blah.

[Domination50000]

@EpicBunty He is saying that he is 15 to show how not every teenager loves lil' wayne or Justin Bieber, and if you dont like the comments then just ignore them and enjoy the song :)

[seanseet123]

@EpicBunty well if you are sick of this kind of comments you should really just look away or scroll futher =) dont have tohate on us greatfull kids xD yes yes we ALL know you a very matured so do us life filled teens/kids a huge favor and look away or another words.....fuck off =)

[Crazson34]

[TheYongary]

@seanseet123 Cool bro I respect you a bunch now. Not really. Suck a dick

[seanseet123]

[nolongerbeating88]

@thkro20 now that you've said it, i am starting to feel sorry for myself

[ealaara]

@seanseet123 Thank God for youth like you. America still has a future.

[Pernailismiley]

@ealaara Who says that the person who wrote it is from America?

I'm a 17-year-old girl from Denmark and I prefer this kind of music as well. It's like you see America as 'the world' .....

[ealaara]

@Pernailismiley Guess what KID. AMERICA is my world. Just like your country is probably your world. And how do you know if that person is not american? That person didn't bother to correct my comment.

[claudemiresantos]

@seanseet123 no matter your age. your mind needs to be oppen to all the good music. The good music will always prevail agains the barrier o time.

[seanseet123]

@claudemiresantos ....that is true =)

[SkateingIsWhatsUp]

@seanseet123 Shut up jesus christ nobody cares. millions of 15 year old like old music and billions hate justin beiber, you're not unique.

[seanseet123]

@SkateingIsWhatsUp u jelly u unique?

[School17Girl]

@seanseet123 We are alike :) I like the oldies because it's nice to look back at those times and be back to simple and cute songs that we can actually understand without anything about drugs or sex.

[seanseet123]

@School17Girl hahah cool xD

[sirwormy81]

@seanseet123 Bless you, my young friend! I think about listening to this on a "45", and I was about 12. Thank you for ypur appreciative words.

P.S. Do you know what a "45" is? Happy New Year!

So happy to hear thzt someone young gets the heart in this stuff!

[seanseet123]

@sirwormy81 well i guessed it was a radio but then i asked my dad 45 is a magnum o.o so atm i really dont know =)

[quint793]

very gooooood

[TyW112]

the thing about this song though, its about a guy coming home from prison, not war

[mystikall89]

my idiot brother as well as cemetery junction ... co incidentally i watched these 2 movies within just days of each other, both have this amazing song.

[larue1995]

Does anybody remember "The Answer to Tie a Yellow Ribbon"? It came out shortly after the song. It was the story behind the song.

[SuperSanchez58]

desde que la oi por primera vez en los 70s me gusto! recuerdos hermosos de mi niñes cuando mama preparaba el desayuno al ritmo de la cancion.

[Clound13]

I love you mama!!!!!!!!!

[angusthethird]

Don't be surprised if you hear new songs of this type in 2012-13. The style's becoming popular again. And, to quote Martha Stewart, that's a "good thing."

[spookerlover02]

It sucks

[kubrox91]

this totally screams 70s

[kotonizna]

my idiot brother gave me last song syndrome...

[ThePuertolacruz]

el estaba preso y le dijo a ella que cuando saliera el, ella pusiera esa cinta en el viejo arbol asi el sabia que aun ella lo quería y esperaba por el . esta letra es basada en un hecho real bueno asi lo ley en un libro

[ThePuertolacruz]

ojala volviera esa epoca

[MYHEARTMUTMINI10]

@ThePuertolacruz lo mismo digo

[jayxunned]

Our idiot brother.... any movie is act by Zoey D. all the songs are so special and meaningful

[NFLCB21]

I learned this song in elementary school.

[thecolaratlady]

anyone ever wonder what the 3 yrs were for?

[phatslapper]

@thecolaratlady The War???

[slickmicky54]

@thecolaratlady The three years prison were for riding his bike without lights. The trouble is, it was daylight. Very strange!

[BeatlesMonkees]

@slickmicky54 Maybe he was in the war.

[zukilover2]

some part of this song sounds like Alone Again by Gilbert O'Sullivan.

[angelinaro11643]

[cedric9966]

[utksaye]

Good Woman. Still love him. 1 in a 1,000,000 to find this woman.

[xmobster5]

Tie a yellow ribbon around ya ass!

Held up, anyway?!

[carolbrehm1]

My husband is in prison for 3 years. His release date is Dec 2013. This song just made me sob my heart out

[lenniesam]

For my Dad <3 he loved this song <3

[123pickles4567]

Is it bad that before today seeing the ribbon on the tree on google for Veteran's Day, I thought that he was coming home from jail?.... I mean what else am I suppost to think of "I'm coming home iv'e done MY TIME"??

[jrssjdca]

@123pickles4567 The song's lyrics are about a man who had been in jail and written a letter to his girlfriend asking her if she still wanted him back. The theme of "coming home" then morphed into the coming home for soldiers as well because of the "yellow ribbon." So now, the yellow ribbon either on trees or as images on TV are for those serving in war vs the original meaning of the incarcerated.

[Tensaihime]

This song is so gosh darn ADORABLE. :D

Happy Veterans' Day!

[bjean1986]

I was born in the 80s, grew up in the 90s, wished my mom had been born in the 20s, just so I could have been born in the 50s, to really experience the 70s. Damnit. 30 years too late. Still love the music though!

[zackistall01]

@bjean1986 If that had happened, ur mom most peobably would have been dead by now, Not sure u would want tht right?

[nomaryn]

Veterans day!

[laksmanshaathru]

why dont tie a blue ribbon??????

[servant74]

70's simple. Not the way I remember it, but time does tend to soften memories. Yes, this is one of the great songs of the era!

[megadork456]

...Wouldn't it suck if the letter got lost or came late? Ouch.

[54quintana]

Tony Orlando and Dawn. Yes it does bring back memories.

[69babegirl]

Freddy Fender Wow this brings back some memories

Thanks for sharing Much <3

[cedric9966]

<3 awwww 100 yellow ribbon 

[de3p5y]

100 people hung red ribbons instead of yellow.

[dukebluedevil1able]

I was a teenager in the 70's had a lot of fun, wish we could do it all over again, I have four kids and there world revolves around computers and texting. They do not know how to pretend like we used to in the 70's
