[NcOnUt]

Back when Disney was truly Disney. Beautiful.

[pbscraze]

@lottoya1 There's GOT to be a way to convince Disney to bring back the magic.....ANYTHING!

[battousaiblade]

[TheChillyAcademicIV]

@richbros1

My childhood :)

[Surfer041]

Back when movies could touch us and move us. One of my favorites. EPIC SUCCESS MY FRIEND!

[SuperApplecomputer]

when you hear her singing this song you think of the pain that is behind it… I know it was just a movie but it really gets to me.. when i hear it I think of my grandfather who died 8 years ago from colorectal cancer…. and it makes me think of the pain he and my grandmother went through as he was told that he only had 3 months to live.. he didn’t tell anyone until after christmas… he then passed 3 days later… i love and miss you pop-pop =]

[ChattieGirlz]

i sing this with my female barbershop group, check us out, search : MAIN STREET SOUND CANDLE ON THE WATER and click on the top video and watch us!!! :) im not on the video but theyre amazinggggggggggg

[TwinMonsters1314]

Memories of sitting at my grandparents house and watching this movie when i was 7 come flooding back when i listen to this.. I miss this movie..

[JaysonsMom]

@TwinMonsters1314 I did exactly the same thing, same age, too. :)

[grantistheman94]

Basic! I miss you so much! Go council 8!

[polyesterwindow]

we sang this on the last night of camp and although i haven't gone to that camp since 2007, it still makes me cry...

[StonewallJackson26]

This bitch needs some dick.

[gummystar2000]

@StonewallJackson26 stop talking to urself!!!!!!!

[eloyart]

'tis beautiful...and it lifts me somehow.... 

[xXSunnyKimXx]

This is a beautiful song... It is special to me... <3 :')

[msunami]

@Nauticals65 I may be British, but your post made me weep a bit. I too lost friends in the WTC attack, and I always think of them.

The people we have lost, or the dreams that have faded, never forget them...

[leoniderna]

they have removed the song from the DVD

[madcat61207]

Thx 4 uploading this - it is very special to me 2

[TheBlitz1]

[IamBratacus]

Classic film yet still great for all ages to enjoy , my 19 yr old has been playing this on the piano and i wanted to show her this :) thanks

[toemeraldcity]

[bedgoupbedgodown]

as a little girl i used to rewind this song over and over on the VCR!

[IamBratacus]

@bedgoupbedgodown we still own the vhs tape of this film but my vcr is broken atm yes i did the same thing

[blubryfields4evr]

@bedgoupbedgodown me tooo!

[chocolateandbooks]

one of my favorite songs as a kid

[Nauticals65]

I'm dedicating thisamazing teary-eyed song with touching lyrics for all that lost their lives on 9/11. Also, I had some classmates from College that perished at WTC on that day...We will never forget you ever...

[blueyes0170]

I've been on holidays this week & the last week has been great I've been able to spend time with my 8 month year old baby & every after noon this week when it is time for her tp have a nap I have held her in my arms & she has fallen a sleep this several Pete Dragon's song and I all I can say is wow

[grammyd55]

My granddaughter has to watch this everyday. She lives this video. Thanks for posting!

[angelofmusic1701]

This song has and will always touch my heart..

[dyonker]

what a beautiful song

[monkeykid3250]

Hey look! She's singing beautifully without autotune! Thumbs up if you miss that as much as good disney movies!

[ABOSS302]

This was reinacted at the Walt Disney Studio wrap party for Pete's Dragon. They had this lighthouse tower on the sound stage with beacon going and all the dinner guests seated around it. What a great capper to this evening back then.

[Niia27600]

Elle n'est pas dans la version française cette scène ..

[Funstuff13613]

With Disney cashing in on old shows and converting them into Broadway shows I wonder why they haven't turned this one into a Broadway Musical. I for one would purchase a ticket and go see it, I think a lot of people would.

[kittybirg]

@Funstuff13613

I agree. I think it would make a fine Broadway show -- so long as Disney didn't try to make it "awesome" by throwing too much money at it. It's a fine thing, as-is.

[oliviajohns]

i love this song

[theasdaprice]

I listen to this song when life gets too much for me, cos the lyrics are so meaningful

[cyberslayer002]

This song gives me a case of the warm fuzzies.

[CosmicAdventures]

Beautiful song and scene!

[DarkCrystalSage]

[jobo919]

[ThumperMuffin]

[battousaiblade]

god memories

[PhilThePrince]

Such a beautiful song and the way she sings it is truly heartbreaking. Thanks so much for uploading this, five stars.

[loveskuls11223344]

hola mis amigos!!! habla espanol?

[iamclassicforlife]

sí. ¿por qué?

[parchisfan]

una pregunta enorme. Yo tengo esta película en DVD y no está esta escena!!

¿en que parte de la ´película esta???

mi DVD es orignial!! de verdad esta cancion es parte del filme??

[parchisfan]

podrias subirla en español??

[PatataPiloto]

La "gracia" es que esta canción aparece en la versión original extendida. Además hay otras escenas (y canciones) más.

En español sólo tenemos este tema en los créditos iniciales de la peli. No puedo darte más datos porque a mí también me sorprendió muchísimo!!

[parchisfan]

muchas gracias por responder... mira es que yo tengo esta canción en un disco de vinilo, en versión en español, cantada por la misma mujer que hace el doblaje latino en español. Es cuestión de transferir el audio a mi compu... y ya! Pero lo que yo pensé era que esa canción no era parte del filme, sino era una canción inspirada en esta pelicula. Ahora entiendo porque la tiene mi disco de vinilo...

[Kufilm]

@PatataPiloto neanche nella versione italiana è presente...

...è un delitto perché credo sia la scena più bella e importante del film...

[maranda9999999991]

Tienes razón, es toda una "gracia". Por no decir otra cosa!!! Suerte que en los créditos iniciales podemos escuchar este tema pues para mi es el mejor de toda la pelicula. Es una verdadera lastima que una parte considerable (unos 25 minutos) del metraje original quede inedita en los paises de habla hispana. Aún asi, gracias por tu aportación.

[TheatreBoy6793]

Beautiful song

[roses4able]

yeah rlly

[Autostade67]

"Sadly", Al Kasha and Joel HIrschenhorn seem to have come along at the wrong time. Though two time Oscar winners when they wrote this song score, the cultural times were not about to make them the new Sherman brothers, and their careers fizzled. Sick irony that in about a decade, a taste for "old style" Disney fairy tale animation would rocket Alan Mencken and Howard Ashman to the fame Kasha and HIrsschenhorn would never achieve.

[anneke765]

It is a very moving song. Goosebumps, every time. I know that when I saw this movie as a child I also loved this song even though I didn't understand the lyrics yet.

[jtomally9681]

I'm uploading this movie.

[TheLaurenlandddd]

I was working on this song when my cousin died.

I couldnt sing it for like...two weeks.

Still reminds me of her.

[Bartokdegeweldige]

Ooohh, such a beautiful song <3!

[Jennipie123]

I remember listening to this when I was really really young. It wasn't my favorite at the time, for I preferred up beat songs that a two year old could dance to. Later, when I could appreciate the beauty of this song, it grew on me so, and this was always one of my favorite parts of the entire movie. Even now, I love this song and find it touching. Now I can understand the meaning, and not just know it as a pretty song (:

[78michaeljackson]

Hi... This was my father's all time favorite movie as it is mine... he was tickled when it was released tro own on VHS and DVD.. He passed away on July 13th 2009 and I miss him TERRIBLY.. I am crying right now.. I will always be his candle on the water... I love you Daddy... I'll never let you go....

[78kljk]

I still love you, Abigail.

-John

[lakriscath]

Have this on VHS, love it :D

[MsSouthernBella]

Have this movie, just love it

[melondoggy]

I love this movie sooo much... but almost no one's heard of it! =(

[wendydale1]

My 3 kids and us and then our grandson watched this movie really really often and it is SUPERB!! Touching, soooo funny, well well done.

Reaches kids on so many positive levels at the same time having some really funny adult humor that the kids won't catch.

In addition it's loaded with big stars of our past in addition to Helen---Mickey Rooney, Shelly Winters, the great Red Buttons, very well done Jim Dale, and Jim Backus.

Don't miss the Goguens! You've got to see them for yourself.

[TheVampgirl999]

i used to watch this all the tim when i was young it was my fave movie

[jtomally9681]

I am so upset. I tried to upload Pete's Dragon the video was lagging behind the audio so I had to delete it.

[rockchick80s]

Thanks for sharing flybreath. You have this overwhelming knack of sending just the right thing at just the right time. Beautiful Words.

[jtomally9681]

Flybreath? You talking to me?

[rockchick80s]

jtomally9681 -Sorry I was thanking my friend for sharing this lovely clip with me. Great Post btw.

[jtomally9681]

No problem. I am uploading Disney stuff. i have a lot done so far. Real Disney. Not the bullshit that is out today.

[JGCooney]

I think this song may have won some awards. If not, it should've. FIVE stars!

[TheatreBoy6793]

It was nominated, but lost to "You light up my life"

[anneke765]

It's also my favourite disney movie and I always loved this song but couldn't find. Thank god for youtube.

[powerpup97]

Did Carol King write this song? It sure does sound like her material.

[fable911]

I love this film, but i cant remember this song :(

[hnolde]

my mom used t sing this to me and my sisters at bedtime :) happy memories

[tiemedown]

this movie is so moving

[shallonfarr]

I miss when Disney movies were this good.

[pearberryxoxo]

totally agree:)

[shabbo16]

Tran can cook LOVES THIS SONG!!!

[horseylurrvver]

This is such a gay song! we sang it in our year 7 concert!!!

[EmilioPacheco]

Esta cena foi cortada do DVD recentemente lançado no Brasil, embora a música esteja anunciada na contracapa. Aliás, o filme ("Meu Amigo o Dragão") teve um corte de mais de 20 minutos em relação ao original. Isso é caso para "recall". Não comprem o DVD mutilado. Se já compraram, devolvam.

[mkmih01]

I love her singing this. Its awsome

[Disneyfan82]

I think this song should have won the oscar nomination instead of that other one. But that's just me *shrugs*

[StarWarsGeek05]

Actually this song won the Academy Award for Best Song in 1977. =)

[illmadeknight]

It lost actually to "You Light Up My Life". It was nominated though.

[TaranWanderer2]

Yes, this and "Someone's Waiting for You" from "The Rescuers" were nominated, but they lost against "You Light Up My Life."

[GumbaMasta]

School can fff...mess up the best things.

[BittenByEdward01]

I used to watch this movie everyday xD The ending always made me sad T_T u.u

[xMadFaceProductionsx]

i use to watch it every day too haha what happens in the end? it's been forever

[BittenByEdward01]

**SPOILER** The kid stays with the family and the woman's boyfriend comes back but the dragon has to go and help another kid

[24Kieferfan]

this was my favourite movie when i was little. i forgot how good it was until i watched it yesterday :)

[SxyChicDisney]

i heard this on disneymania 4 once, but ive never heard this version and ive never gotten to see this movie. i bet its good

[robotwookie]

So very good

[ashleys212000]

LOVE IT!! Her voice is amazing, and so are the lyrics!

[millie73]

Love this song.Thanks Mamamialove for sending me this lovely post!

[jtomally9681]

I used this song to let my gf in Iraq know my feeling for her.

[robotwookie]

That's very touching

[Missinisi33]

ma perché nella versione italiana questa scena non c'è...perché l'hanno tagliata mi chiedo, che senso ha...

[coldbills]

I get to sing this as a solo in perfromence!

[TamLin275]

Good luck!

[sdodd09]

Same Here =)

[dg9kaq]

this song unfortunately isn´t on the Gold Collection DVD. But rumor has it it´ll be on the new one!

[ALLSATIN247]

The Sherman Brothers sure could write some great music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AuroraFairbanks]

I love this song, I also love the remix by Anneliese Van der Pol she sang it so beautifully. Thanks for uploading!

[StarZapZee]

I had to sing this in 4th grade

[lalalachachacha0123]

[lalalachachacha0123]

[offtheheazy6]

LOL!!!! that made me laugh

[caityluvtristan]

i was talking to my boyfriend on the phone and he played this song to me and i was almost in tears it was absolutely magnificant!

[Mewsikgrrl9898]

[dliu84]

after I learned English, and understood the words in this song with help from dictionary, my soul touched by it

[alexthecardbeast]

my friend sung this at my skools talent show, she was amazing!

[zandyzandya]

dO u haVe tHe sOng iN spanish?

[foreverinnewyork]

This was my favorite video when I was little. I used to sing this song to my mother. Its nice to see others appreciate it.

[drummerlead]

This is a great song for anyone to listen to who's going through a difficult time.

[specialkrj]

None can compare to Helen. <3

[snaggs015]

It was shown like that in the US. for years they also removed a few other scenes. They have now been restored and sho the full film.

[woutch]

This scene wasn't even in the film in Britain. The song instead was played over the opening credits. What a waste.

[PJSteele21]

I remember pete's dragon! I love candle on the water. very great movie.

[FuzzyPuppy101]

I like the remixed version better in my opinion it souds nicer when Annalise Vanderpoll does it But thats just me.*shrugs*

[babyjo12many]

im singing it for the talent show

[cowz2go8moo]

were singing this in choir!!

[frenchy8th]

Great movie, great singer, great song. Thanks for posting!

[bjmiceli]

It's funny, but this is the only scene from this movie that I remember having seen when I was a kid as well. I think Helen is terrific here.

[asherhawke]

This is the only thing I remembered from the movie when I saw it as a little kid! Helen is so great!

[YHaveUForsakenMe]

This is the only scene I remember, too! I don't even remember what this movie was really about or how it ends or anything. Yet, this song is clear in my mind. It is such a very beautiful song! :)

[tourettes13ballerina]

i love this movie and song!!

[realghost164]

this is my fav song to sing along to the movie

[orlandorays]

There is something about the scene that takes this song to a whole different emotional level.

[MachjET]

This has to be one of the best songs ever written! It is sooo lovely and soft!

[HynCutie]

i love this movie!

[Miyu77789]

Ik vindt het een mooi Nummer

[fizzypopdancer]

[Director1374]

one of my favorit songs lol But one of them i like aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalll­llllllloooooooot of disney songs

[koln1996]

This song had an Oscar nomination.

"You Light Up My Life" won.

[1955Micha]

A wonderful song -

I do recommend very much the German version of it, sung by Katja Ebstein: "Hell wie der Lichtschein auf dem Wasser"...

Try it, it's really worth while - and provides another symbolic colours to this poem.

[AangLover1]

i used to love this show

[detachedlegs2]

movie

[mage211]

Use to, or still do?

[fizzypopdancer]

[sleepytree7]

My sister and I used to watch this movie all the time...such a cute flashback. She really surprised me by sending me the "ill be your candle on the water" part of the song the other day and it made me almost cry. I love this song its sooo sweet.

[Proud2bGay21]

One of my favorite songs. Oh so very deep!
