the 1st time i ever heard this song was at my grandads funeral... Its so sad and such a lovely song i will never forget you .... R.I.P grandad Ted xxx
JES, I blew it. I will always be thinking of you, no matter who I'm with or where ever I am. On my knees once again. Praying for a miricle. Twice, MAYBE?
I WONDER IF THERE ARE ANY VIDEOS OF THIS SONG AT THIS PLACE AND TIME.IT WOULD REALLY BE FANTASTIC. IN MY HUMBLE OPINION THIS IS THE BEST INTERPRETATION THAT CAT STEVENS HAS PERFORMED THE SONG, THE VOICE,ENERGY AND EMOTION OF HIS VOICE EVOCATES THE FEELING OF A YOUNG MAN,A FEELING THAT AS TIME GOES BY CANNOT BE REPRODUCED AS WE AGE. cONGRATULATIONS YOU MUST BE A VERY SENSITIVE PERSON
How can I tell you That I love you That I love you And I can't think of right words to say I long to tell you That I'm always thinking of you I'm always thinking of you But my words just blow away Just blow away It always adds up to one thing, honey And I can't think of right words to say
The lyrics on this are just beautiful, and he has such a wonderful voice, full of emotion, to bring the words out. I remember when I was a little kid in the early Seventies all the older girls were in love with Cat :)
This song has literally been a part of me since I was a young teen. Beautiful. The pictures are amazing. As he looks into the camera it feels like he looks directly through you. Like looking @ a picture of Gurumayi...
THESE SONGS HOLD SO MUCH ,THEY HELPED , WHEN I WAS LOST ,THEY MADE ME STRONG WHEN I WAS WEAK THESES ARE MY MEMORIES,THAT I WILL ALWAYS CARRY EVERY PLACE I GO THEY HAD A LASTING IMPRESSION ON ME
@friedensmomo which of his songs touch you more than his work as cat stevens? As it seems that there is a hairtrigger that is being set to trigger if cat stevens is used, let me say I'm only attempting to find out what he's written since he became a muslim that compares with the work that we all love so much, so I know what to look for.
General Cordswainer just put out a cover of this song. It's like a mix between Cat Power and Mazzy Star. Very sexy & a bit smoother than the Cat Stevens version. Totally recommended for your first dance at your wedding if you're a fan of Indie/Folk/Acoustic Rock.
Que c'est beau C: etet pour te répondre, ne change rien, tu le fais si parfaitement, ne change rien du tout <'3 Chaque mot d'amour venant de tes lèvres est pour moi, une véritable extase, la clé du bohneur et du paradis ♥
This was originally released on "Teaser and the Firecat." You can buy the CD pretty much anywhere. It's one of my favorite albums. Rubylove is also on there.
From time to time we need to cry or listen to some songs that make us feel great inside our caring hearts! So, this song is an a good example of that! here is a song that I put in my channel ......a very touching song ....... that will make you all CRY from the bottom of your hearts. This song is called "FATHER ANS SON". I really sang it with all my crying veins inside my caring heart.NOW listen to it with your heart.
P/s: Do not forget to tell me your opinion about my voice!!
@dobieco1986 La versión original en español no es de Compañía Ilimitada, sino de otro grupo bogotano, el más importante de la década del 70: Génesis, ellos hicieron este tema y su traducción casi contemporáneos con la canción original de Cat Stevens.
@MostlyExistent Very Pleased to hear that! Because many people might not like him anymore because he is a very nice Muslim. You know the stereotypical views of many.
@mrahman377 yeah, that is absolutely ridiculous how ppl still judge music by looks or creed, gender etc.. it is what it is and Cat has always been one of my ear's heart-throbs and he always will be. M favorite is trouble, but all his stuff is fantastic-o !!
Maravillosa cancion.Magica interpretacion.Lagrimas en mis ojos al escuchar un cantante tan talentuoso cantar con tanta emocion.Pura genialidad.Este hombre es un angel sobre tierra.
Son tantos recuerdos...mi adolescencia caminó de la mano de la música de Cat Stevens despues que nos lo descubriera nuestro amigo desaparecido. Gracias socialisto75.
Liz Durrett cover of this song was absolutly horrible! It's starts off with something with her howling into the microphone, "Howl Can I tell you"! Terrible cover to a beautiful song!
Do you know what I love about this particular recording of this song? It is so tender! He sounds like he's in your living room playing it (well except for the instrumental part where a couple of others join in, but that can easily be ignored by a true romantic!) I absolutely LOVE this recording! Thank you for posting it! How can I get it for my own? (pardon my ignorance of computers)
CICILIATO BRASIL...Você representa toda uma geração...venha ao Brasil...somos milhões que te adoram...não só sua música...sua posição politíca e religiosa.....professor CICILIATO LONDRINA GEOGRAFIA....
I heard this today at a funeral, the music itself tells a story of who, why and what a person is about and why we love them so dearly, listen to the words and they will remind you of someone special and close to your heart.
"Joe" I don't wish to minimize your sentiment, beautifully expressed, BUT, if you listen to the words (write them down), you find this is a song about a person's idealized love for SOMEONE THAT THEY HAVE NEVER MET...YET. The loved one is not there, he can't find her..why? She has not entered into his life yet. So, HOW can he tell her that he loves her? he can't yet.
Again, I appreciate your feelings, but the song has nothing to do with not being able to express words to a real love.
Carly Simon states on her website that "I wrote Anticipation for Steve and he wrote Sweet Scarlett for me". Also she says that How Can I Tell You is her favorite of all his songs.
this cat and yusuf now is inside The realm of rhymes and harmony called music.....and inside there he is a cat with wings like a bird........clean, kinda makes us sad but...Cool Down, thers perfect setting for this and Paradise, there u will SURELY FIND THE RIGHT WORDS....
Love is such an amazing thing not only when you love someone but love itself, its true,pure, heartfelt love and its no coincedence that love is represented by the thing that keeps you alive...the heart
I remembered when my dad first made mi listened to cast stevens from tha day on i've only been falling deeper and deeper in love with the song, the lyrics and meanings.. Now i listen to this song, which i havent heard in years.. and i look back and realized how wonderful love is.. even when it doesnt work out the way you want it to be, love is wonderful anyways. And i listen to it now.. and its an Universal theme (what the lyrics say in this song)everyone passes though this times i realize im <3
everytime i here this song it reminds me of my someone i really love. she doesnt even know that i love her hehe until now i cant tell her but im not shy. its just compicated
if it's complicated, it's only because you make it complicated for your self. Love is simple... but it's powerful... it's love that makes your words stutter and your knees weak! And when you tell it to your loved one.. its the only way to show it, otherwise.. its only the words. Make it happen and believe that you are not alone.. call me crazy, but I believe that the universe is always our BigBrother, and makes every wish happen! just.. let it happen.. good luck!
What a great love song. It reminds me of someone I really want, I really miss, I really care. "Wherever I am, girl, Im always walking with you, Im always walking with you, but I look and youre not there". Whoever Im with, Im always, always talking to you, Im always talking to you, and Im sad that you cant hear, sad that you cant hear"
C'est le tune qui a décrit le mieux ce que je sentais au moment où tu es partie. Magnifique tune je pense. De le ré-entendre après tant d'années, jaurais pas pensé que ça aurais le même effet. Bordel..20 ans. Si le vent souffle vers l'Ouest..cest encore how i feel about you
I saw him in concert when I was 20 and he was 26,but his music seems to make time stand still.I think he's the only celebrity that I can truly say I love.Peace Yusuf...
Yusuf's good friend and former producer Paul Samwell-Smith stated in the Cat Stevens box set that he thinks this was his best song.I agree,I've never heard a more beautiful love ballad.
I dedicate this one to my daughter, Lindsay Elise Dunbar. She is a BEAUTIFUL young woman and his such wonderful taste in music. She loves Yusuf Islam (CAT!). Runs in the family!
some songs just get it right, they express in song the feeling to perfection, this is one of those song... loving someone that 's not there, loving in the sweetest purest way but not having the words...
You did a great job!!! Great sound quality!!!

songs are whatever the listener feels in the heart, like a painting , art ,poetry, what one takes away from is what it is.
I have listened to this song since it came out. It still makes me feel the same way which is not what you describe.
perhaps in other words, how do you know his love did not pass on?

And when you tell it to your loved one.. its the only way to show it, otherwise.. its only the words. Make it happen and believe that you are not alone.. call me crazy, but I believe that the universe is always our BigBrother, and makes every wish happen! just.. let it happen.. good luck!

What a great love song. It reminds me of someone I really want, I really miss, I really care. "Wherever I am, girl, Im always walking with you, Im always walking with you, but I look and youre not there". Whoever Im with, Im always, always talking to you, Im always talking to you, and Im sad that you cant hear, sad that you cant hear"

C'est le tune qui a décrit le mieux ce que je sentais au moment où tu es partie. Magnifique tune je pense. De le ré-entendre après tant d'années, jaurais pas pensé que ça aurais le même effet. Bordel..20 ans. Si le vent souffle vers l'Ouest..cest encore how i feel about you

I saw him in concert when I was 20 and he was 26,but his music seems to make time stand still.I think he's the only celebrity that I can truly say I love.Peace Yusuf...

Yusuf's good friend and former producer Paul Samwell-Smith stated in the Cat Stevens box set that he thinks this was his best song.I agree,I've never heard a more beautiful love ballad.

I dedicate this one to my daughter, Lindsay Elise Dunbar. She is a BEAUTIFUL young woman and his such wonderful taste in music. She loves Yusuf Islam (CAT!). Runs in the family!
