It blow's from the North it blow's from the South it blow's from the East it blow's from the west.The wind has been cold the wind has been hot.the wind has blown at it's best and it has blown at it's worst ,and I have never found anything to suggest that the answers are blowing in the wind .The answer is in our hearts if we listen Very nice Post. Take care ADonovan43.

[Ashmantle100]

Always liked Yellow Mellow never realised Donovan song this one also. Always loved it.

[flipper1174]

this is bob dylan  hahahahahahaa

[jeffmalek22]

@flipper1174 No it's not

[MrClaremonster]

You know what really gets me about this song? That 6/8ths time signature - it's got a pleasant sway to it. It's the same strum pattern as In The Aeroplane Over The Sea, another very decent song.

[johnny2o2o]

I believe that this is the album version - the single version (apparently recorded first) is shorter (2:19) and has subtle strings in the background.

My grandmother used to listen to Donavon when she was a teenager. I'm now the same age, and I'm listening to the same artists he used to. Magnifficent art, really. :3

[infinity120609]

Lovely song thank you for posting!!

[TheBluebellMoon2]

best song in the world

[3moonriver]

This song always brings tears to my eyes, my mum and I used to sing it to my little sister (now 48!) and blow on her hair. My mum's been gone a long time now, but we love her, always and ever.

[mickeymousebiker1]

Today, Wed. Dec. 21, 2011, as I held a balloon release in very loving memory of The Darling of My Life -- My Precious Wife, Barbra Rose, I sang some of the lyrics to this wondrous song! Thank you, Donovan! A Joyous and Hopeful Christmas 2011 to Heaven and Earth!

[ChairmanDrek757]

It seems like YouTube is taking these videos down D: I've liked and favorited like five of Catch the Wind videos and they've all be taken down over time. :T

[Rock2Motown2Jazz]

@ChairmanDrek757

Me too. Every time I add one it's gone

[wildshoes]

-- you are asking me for a response - well this little guy was almost responsible for my marriage and love - we still consider this song as "our song" after loving it from hearing it when we met.

[Eler98MercuryTube]

.............Love it.................

[paul18896]

I heard this song on the Tv serie THE WONDER YEARS an d now I cant avoid listening all the time...beautiful song!!!!!

[mickeymousebiker1]

RESPLENDENT! BARBRA - WHEN WE ARE REUNITED IN HEAVEN, I PRAY AND HOPE WE CAN WALTZ TO THIS SONG. I MISS YOU BEYOND WORDS, MY DARLING AND BELOVED WIFE. WATCH OVER ME UNTIL WE ARE TOGETHER ONCE MORE, BARBRA, MY ETERNAL LOVE.

[TheSpinners12]

[JoeTakeHolly]

GREAT SONG

[surfcottage]

@JoeTakeHolly Ty for watching!

[1152Denise]

I am almost 60, and remember when this song came out. It was the prettiest song I had ever heard. I still feel the same way. One of my favorites ever. What a lovely tribute to someone. He was truly gifted. What a shame he didn't do more. Does anyone know what has happened to him? denise@boldlook.net

[surfcottage]

@1152Denise Thank you so much! As far as I know, he"s still performing!

[HarpoonTorpedo]

@1152Denise he was no BBC Radio 2 performing not long back.

[warriorfight111]

@1152Denise he is still alive and in was nominated for entry into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2011

[kccufan806]

For the longest time I thought this was Bob Dylan..idiot lol. One of my all time favorite songs.

[surfcottage]

@kccufan806 LOL! :)).. I think alot of people did... they are similar TY so much for commenting!

[mintgumdropz1]

@surfcottage Dylan did a version of it and to be honest, I love them both. There is a video, a dedication fo Heath Ledger, on stillmissheath2's channel, and it has both versions of this wonderful song..

[KaneJacobsVideos]

@mintgumdropz1 thats not Dylan,they are both Donovan,just different versions

[frozenmystery1]

I really like the spill canvas' cover of this song

[surfcottage]

@frozenmystery1 Thank you for taking the time to comment!

[edjedjedj1]

the invention of lying... look it up

[surfcottage]

@edjedjedj1 ok ty

[MrMojoRisin885]

i love this song...the one on his greatest hits that is. sounds like he is havin an identity crisis on this version. sounds to me a little like, the one and only bob dylan...but then again there are many children of a lesser bob. i remember bob sayin thats a good song, man, when he sang To sing for you....humbling either way you look at it.

[surfcottage]

@MrMojoRisin885 TY... Yes it does have a very Dylanesque quality.... tho I can assure you were it Dylan it would be deleted by YT :)) I know... its been done to ME!

[hot5pur11]

I remember my mum used to sing this to me when I was 4 years old.. it still evokes many happy memories of my mum 42 years later!

Thanks ever so much for posting this :¬)

[surfcottage]

[cjthemusicman]

In the chilly hours and minutes of uncertainty, I want to be, in the warm hold of your loving mind. To feel you all around me, and to take your hand, along the sand. Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind. When sundown pales the sky, I wanna hide a while, behind your smile. And everywhere I'd look, your eyes I'd find.

[cjthemusicman]

. For me to love you now, would be the sweetest thing, 'twould make me sing. Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind. When rain has hung the leaves with tears, I want you near, to kill my fears, to help me to leave all my blues behind. For standin' in your heart, is where I want to be, and I long to be. Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.

[surfcottage]

Arent they the most soulful of words xox
