  • I SIMPLY AM IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG. PAUL MAURIAT IS A GENIUS. I COULD LISTEN TO THIS OVER AND OVER AND OVER.... Helen Sanders-Memphis, TN USA

  • Am I the only 15 year old who enjoys classics?

  • es la mejor cancion que he oido sin duda es la mejor

  • great song

  • There are only a few instrumentals that will outlive the performers who made them famous ....Love's Theme, Theme From A Summer Place, Because They're Young, Stranger On The Shore, Canadian Sunset, Il Etait Une Fois Dans l'Ouest, Wonderland by Night, Theme From Moulin Rouge, Theme In Search Of A Movie and ..........LOVE IS BLUE

  • Will always be my favorite music of all time. With all the different types of music I listen to that says a lot

  • I was 7 years old in 1968 and remember how much I loved this song. I was so happy to find it on YouTube. It is a wonderful song, yet sad. I, too,could listen to it 100 times a day.

  • And to think that 40 years ago I really an 8 track tape for my 63 Chev Impala and the guys would give me crap all night. Oh Well, here I am retired and still listening to the greatest in the world. God Bless all of You!

  • @rolbri Such music we had back then. I still love those oldies and also remember my own 8-track in the car (a '69 Olds Cutlass) as well as my portable 8 track (that I still have! Take care and keep on listenin' to those great sounds!

  • красотаааааааааааааааааааааааа­ааааааааааааааа

  • The song that was #1 when my husband was born. I love this song.

  • anyone could download it the concert?

  • thank you! Paul and Frank Purcell were genious!

  • Just is simplicity I was 7 or 8 when I listened to the radio and after I ahd a version of Nini Rosso and Michele Lacerenza Morricone's first trumpet. Now thanks to you tube you can add a new life to Love is blue. Fantastic!

  • Just a wonderful instrumental. I could listen to it 100 times a day!!

  • inclivel! tempo de boas musicas e bom gosto, para ser musico ou cantor tinha que ter talento, e não produção pela midia.

  • I think even the classic masters would like this piece.

  • Was part of this video cut out? Look at clip 2:04. The man in the front left corner gets up and "poof" he is sitting where he was? What happend?

  • a vert beautiful song by a very gifted man rest in peace you brought so much beauty and joy to this world with your music. And also class talnet elgance

  • Época de Grande Bom Gosto e que Safra Maravilhosa de Grandes Maestros e Musicas Indiscritiveis.

    São até hoje as mais Belas do Mundo!!!! Não tenho dúvidas.

    Melo Maringá.

  • Such a beautiful instrumental peice. One of my all time favorite songs.

  • I'm a 70's kid and this song was still running strong on the radio. It brings warm memories every time I hear it.

  • I guess I'm a bit young to enjoy this considering I was born in 1968 ... but it's just so classic and crisp sounding.

  • Classical european 60's.

  • My favourite album from many years ago - lent it to my sister - haven't seen it since.

  • Happy, happy memories; happy times! For some reason it reminds me of being in the kitchen with my mom (prob because I was in the kitchen...with my mom) And now that 14 year old is still inside me, knock-knocking on my brainand heart asking to come out! So sorry angel, for the loss of your Glen. Know that he is with you each and every moment of the day - energy never dies, and the energy of love is the most potent. Turn sadness into good energy...Glen wants that, I'm sure of it!

  • @faklempt1 What a beautiful comment about my sweet Glen. I do feel him always close by. He is my very special guardian angel and in death, as in life, his love and protection surround me always. I chronicled this love of ours in two of the books I have written so that others may learn of the joy of those innocent and beautiful days we shared. Bless you for your kindness and understanding....take care.

  • So wonderful to hear, and beautiful.

    Many many thanks.

  • One of my favorite melodys. Makes me feel good but at times a bit sad. Missing the woman that i always loved.

  • this is a musical drug, it causes addiction

  • I've listened to this 10 times in one hour...I'm not even done yet. Tremendous...moving...ah, life is so much sweeter with the sound of music...

  • @tovakaye Sure! Mr. Paul Mauriat is too great!

  • my father, my inspiration..

  • Muito Muito Boa Musica Faz Bem a Todos!!

  • eso fue lo primero que toce en piano y me pone contenta (_:

  • This is musical art where every note is a different color -- and even GOD smiles when He listens to it... :) 

  • que preciosidad de cancion

  • This song was in a movie back in the 60's which was the first time I heard, loved it then and still love it now. Anybody remember the movie?

  • This song was the theme of my senior prom back in June of 1969 when I danced in the loving arms of my boyfriend Glen. Little did I know all those years ago that the song would echo the loss of my beloved who passed away in 1990 at age 38. RIP my special angel...my world is indeed "blue without you."

  • @angel369100 Was love blue for you back in 1969?

  • @dinoaplz No. Love was beautiful for me then...you?

  • @angel369100 Wow tough to even consider! My Prom was 68 and then the Senior Trip to Nam.

  • incredible!!!!

    

  • Grand chef d'orchestre <3

  • I just can't get enough of this. Mauriat is superb.

  • this was my mom's wedding theme song.. I just wanna cry ! sorry but even a guy cries

  • Sooooo soothing, aaahhhh, what more can I say!

  • I can describe this song in one word:beautiful!

  • wonderful....

    

  • the greatest instrumental ever...

  • Memorable tune. Love can also be pink.

  • i have the song on philips 45 rec i bourgh in the late sixtyes

  • Had the original 45 as a 5 year old. I was so upset when it broke. Now I have it again. Wonderful song.

  • I listened to this for the first time 18 years ago,it's a shame that only until now i've finally known its name.

  • I remember this as if it was today!

    LOVE IS BLUE

    1968  #1 for five weeks

  • excellent

    

  • Great

  • Whgen you feel down, blue, or lonely, listen to this theme and you'll see the effect upon you. It's a masterpiece.

  • Old time favorite.

  • Cool conducting!

    So sweet sounds.

  • alguien tiene las partituras para tocarla???

  • MASTERPIECE!!!!

  • back when you had to know more than 2 chords rap and hip hop is a joke mcs wanna bes lots of money true but thats not its about in the end

  • paul mauriat was very cool what a masterpiece!

  • Great song. It hit the radio in January 1968 (along with "Classical Gas") and turtlenecks were just starting to be worn with blazers, sport jacket and suits, as in this video. Thanks for bringing it back!

  • i love thz song very much...miz my chilhood tyme....

  • Very snazzy music. And, if I must say, a very snazzy jacket...

  • Wonderful memories as a child in the 1960s....this song is amazing...breathtaking!

  • maestro

    

  • one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written

    

  • Hola a todos, en mi opinión, considero a esta canción como una de la mas grandes y maravillosas de nuestro siglo. Los invito a disfrutarla y a preservarlo por siempre.

  • Он был ГЕНИЕМ!!!!

  • This selection attest to the fact that the original rendition is really the best.

  • It gives me goosebumps every time I hear this.

    Classic.

  • Merci pour ecouter cette merveilleuse musique apres tant d'annees, je pleure de joie et d'emotion. Thanks so much!!!!!!!!!

  • This song is kinda groovy.

  • The # 2 song of the whole year of 1968 behind Hey Jude by The Beatles it was # 1 for 5 weeks.

  • Listening today, the first iconic notes propel me back to the 4th grade playing the auto-harp. Even as an innocent child, the yearning violins overwhelmed my heart, anticipating a later sadness in my life, when love became blue. Such a beautiful piece. God bless you, Paul, for the joy you inspired. May you rest in peace.

    ~Angelae Le'Chastaignier

  • In 1968, this was the first pop song I ever learned on the piano! I was classically trained on piano, from 6 to 16 years old. I memorized "Love is Blue" and began my pop, jazz, progressive and fusion musical interest! 

  • joder k buena esta la tia del capitulo de millenium k captura a los chavales y les pone esta musica, quien pudiera!!!!!!!!! ojala k me capturase toda la vida y me follase a muerte todos los dias con esta musica, k bonita, k buena esta la tia diossssssss

  • Linda !!!!!!!!!!!

  • ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНО !!! ОЧЕНЬ КРАСИВО..

  • My favorite instrumental song of all time.. I was 10 when this was released in 1968 and this brings back such vivid memories~!!!

  • This is the definite elevator song.

  • @southport97

    :)

  • Comment removed

  • i always imagine doing a very nice waltz around the ballroom dance floor when i hear this song. So beautiful and one of my very favorite songs since I was a little boy! :-)

  • Ahhhh. I listen to this hit back in'68 along with the other great songs from that era. better than listening to some of the crap they have today.

  • as110-- i can not say anything after your coment--thank you--i am with you

  • I don't know if it's supposed to be a sad song, but I always feel happy when I hear it. I imagine sunshine and running around in playful bliss as a 4 year old. This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard, it was more than 40 years ago and I never forgot it. Sometimes I sing it for no reason out of the blue. What else could I expect from Paul Mauriat?

  • Great offering. But then can we expect anything less from Paul Mauriat?

  • Did anyone see that episode of Millenium where this lunatic kidnapping woman played this theme 24/7 to her captives?

    Excellent tune..

  • @dannidog Actually, this was the first time I heard this song. It was more than 10 years ago. I was looking for the title of the song ever since. A few days ago I realized that with youtube and google it should be easy.

  • @LodovicoAriosto1 A lovely tune dont you agree?

  • @dannidog damn it is!

  • @dannidog Yes i agree.Peace,Desiree

  • @dannidog I did.: )

  • @dannidog beautiful lunatic...

  • @pibito69 she was hot!!

  • @dannidog

    I remember that episode. As much as I love this song, It was a bit much. Still, I can never get sick of hearing it.

  • @dannidog the title is " a room with no view"

  • @dannidog

    that was the first time I heard this song... and I love it since... Beautyful!!

  • @dannidog I did,and it was why I came to look for this song :)

  • @dannidog Yes Lucy Butler, watched it this evening - loved it. Funny how they could use a song like this and make it creepy (not to talk about friggin annoying...lol!)

  • great song to relax to im 30 this is way before my time and i love it......

  • I could listen to this song all day long...and then some.

  • master piece how does one put something like this together pure genius makes you feel like flying in pure happiness is this suppose to be a sad tune as in love is blue doesnt matter its a beautiful symphony just like my beautiful maurie.

  • I remember crawling under live machine gun fire at night during basic training in '68 with tracers cracking 3' above my head humming this to myself. It was glorious! I didn't think anyone else heard me, but a couple of my buddies did and gave me my nickname, Crazy Bob. Funny how memories like that stick when they're associated with music. I thought this was a beautiful instrumental.

  • Dear All,

    I have some questions about psychology:

    (1) What can you "imagine" when listening to this song on a concorde at 38000 feets high?

    (2) What memory does this song recall you when listening in the air with amber sunshine?

    THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for your creative ideas and brainstorm!!! :)

  • When I listen to this song, I feel that I am 20 years old younger.

    Do you feel the same?

  • Dedykuje ten utwór mojej Buziulce kochanej

    bbbbttttt TM

  • A beautiful peaceful song for a very turbulent year in world history.

  • Love is color...

  • A musica mais linda do mundo....Fiko muito grato em poder desfrutar de tão bela melodia...

  • I want them to play this song on my funeral

  • @PeaPolt Why? You wont be able to enjoy it so how about they play for you at a happy celebration my friend!

  • This piece is just one the great sigature sounds of the "Mellow '60's".

  • Listening ... just feel like watching the sunset touch the Ocean whilst moving down the horison.

    Simply breathtaking... so sweet... and I don't think love is blue .... naaa ... it is the colour of the rainbow...if not then it's not love.

  • nice song!!!

    

  • Am I the only one who thinks Paul looks like a Priest with the type of shirt collar he is wearing??? LOL WE MISS YOU PAUL!!! THANKS FOR ALL THE GREAT MUSIC, ESPECIALLY "LOVE IS BLUE"!!!

  • Adoro esa canción ♫blue blue blue .... love is bluee!♫

  • @Selene001Anne

    Yo tambien!

  • The 60's were such a terrible time, but there were some great songs to come out of them. This may be the best one of all.

  • @danbeane

    you are so right.

  • The 60's were such a terrible time, but there were some great songs to come out of them. This may be the best one of all.

  • Music that fills the soul!

  • This is one of the most amazing songs of all time!!!!! André Popp & Pierre Cour may have written it, (L'amour est bleu) but Paul Mauriat perfected it!!!!!!

  • @cruiseguyhawaii

    You are so right!

  • Always was my favorite instrumental! Thanks for posting!!

  • what possesses a man, or a woman, to create such beautiful music? I always wished I had musical or singing abilities, but I certainly enjoy the brilliance and genius of others.

  • @jeff65623

    Me too!

  • beautyful song bring great memories!!!

  • great memories!!!

  • The audiences are shit because i didn't hear hand-clapping sound

  • Possibly one of the most beautiful combination of sounds ever heard.

  • this song can make me cry

  • @24willa THIS IS AN AWESOME SONG............ This song is so sad ,and it is one of my all time

    favorite songs. I wish we could go go back to these times,when things were so simple

  • @24willa I LOVE THIS SONG.... I THINK ONE OF THE BEST SONGS OF ALL TIMES!!!!!!

  • Interesting to me that fashion, in the 60's, had a pared down look to it: clothing, furniture, homes, all very sleek and modern looking. But music - even pop music - became lush, with full orchestras and harpsichords no less! The 60's were a time of invention and creation. I'm grateful to have lived during them.

  • esta cancion transporta mi alma hacia el infinito y me hizo sonar en mi juventud gracias por melodias tan bellas

  • THIS MAN MADE BEAUTIFUL MUSIC,PEACE DESIREE

  • @Desiree50 GREAT SONG!!!!

  • эта мелодия нравится мне с детства

  • Fuck..I can hear thisn 10000000 times in a row..if I'm drunk the better"!!!

  • Paul Mauriat: Belíssima música.

    Eu era criança quando foi gravada.

    Faço questão de ouví-la até hoje.

  • @MrJrrufino ainda nao tinha nascido...ouço um estilo de musica absolutely different(metal) mas no entanto ouço esta musica centenas de vezes..mainly cause I think of it as a serial killer music!!

  • does this song have anything to do with the song love is orange? dumd questions from dumb people (me) srry

  • - thnx - Very comfortable trance, that makes us wanna dance. Me, oh my. I think this gets me high. * * * * * I will drink one for you while I'm listening to " Love Is Blue " . [sweet]

  • I can still remember hearing this song on the radio back in the late 60's, I was 5 years old. My mom had the album this song was on and her and I use to sing along with it in the car when it came on the radio. One of the most beautiful songs ever written. Every time I hear it, it brings back warm memories of my childhood.

  • @officialuneven I hear ya. I was 7 when this song came out and even at that young age the melody captured my imagination. The different instruments and the sounds that they made in each verse really stuck with me. Reminds me so much of 1968 which as a kid for me was a great year since i was living my childhood even though in reality it was a awful year here in the US.

  • @dsfddsgh Me too! 

  • @officialuneven -- Funny, in the 60s, when my daughter was about 5, we'd do the same thing when it came on the radio. I also had the album and played it frequently...because it brought back so man warm memories.

  • I know I'm not the only metalhead listening from music from the 60's,this one is absolutely beautifull,almost perfect..perfect perfect only"My Dying Bride" ;)

  • @blackcatcooker Im a total metalhead and I love this song cus it brings back memories when I used to hear it on the radio when I was a kid. I love anything with a harpsichord!

  • @funkychick60 I'm 29,and I heard this music for the very first time 2 days ago on a Millennium episode,I just had to find out wich and who's music it was:)

  • @pin6181 take care of yourself by changing your lifestyles such as your diet or addictions of anything that debase your health. Eat the right food which are plant based foods so that your body systems will be detoxed and cleansed. I hope you believe in God, the giver of life and the source of aLL BLESSINGS. Come to Him and He will give u rest.tc.

  • I love this song. I was 6 years old when Paul Mauriat released it. Brings me great memories from my childhood. 

  • I've just replayed this song 5 times and only stopped coz I had to leave

  • @asiimwejob I often do that and then i have a hard time sleeping cause the music just keeps playing in my head!!

  • With all do respect...the U.S. was very messed up in 1968! King killed, RFK killed, Vietnam escalating, Nixon elected....Riots in every major city..........!!!!

  • brings back lot of memories when life was alot simplier,the world was better place at this time...awesome song...R.I.P. P M

  • LMFAO. I did not even notice this was the studio recording with a couple clips from a concert that were cut and put on repeat. Nicely done sir.

  • A wonderful melody of the great musician Paul Mauriat and his orchestra, lovely memories come up to my mind from my childhood years, this song has something special that makes the feelings to wake up. My father used to listen this song in a radio called Stereo Lima 100 in Lima- peru in the 60's.

  • @SATRUDER2009 I agree,I too listened to this in the 60's but in CA. Funny, that you mentioned Peru.21 yrs. ago I was in Peru adopting a baby girl! She is a beauty and a sweet girl!

  • I keep coming back to this every now and then....Haunting!

  • I'm a 47 yrs old man and as a little kid remember my mom playing this...still makes me misty eyed...how totally beautiful...

  • what a great song to have been #1 - imagine on the charts with hendrix - beatles - the stones......quite a time for music - glad i experienced it:=):=)

  • This music takes me to my childhood. No pain, no care happy time when my father was alive who loved this orchestra...

  • BUNCH OF ASSHOLES

  • @pin6181: I hope peace comes to you.

  • I cannot find the right words.

  • I'M LOVIN THIS SO MUCH. I GET LOST IN IT! ~ Helen Sanders, Oakland, TN

  • This beautiful melody just makes me feel so good,It makes me feel like dance flying( if u know what i man) I just love it so much! How on earth did Paul put something like this together : he's a bloody genius! That's all i can say.....
