@SmalltownWriter Well, it's not like he wrote it, André Popp is the composer. It was originally written for Vicky Leandros, which is still my favourite version. But Mauriat made a wonderful arrangement for it!
This piece sends chills up & down my spine every time I hear it. Although this isn't the original singles version, it's still a fine piece of work. One of the top five greatest instrumentals ever made!
@LeconsdAnalyse No, this simply isn't the original arrangement from the late 60's that most of us are familiar with. You will note that this arrangement is being playied in the same key as the original version (if this recording had been sped up or slowed down, this would not be the case). Also some of the phrasing at several different levels has been changed and some different instrument timbres have been selected, some more obvious, some more subtle.
A magical song that makes all of us feeling life can always be much better than what we think it is.... Thank you my dear for this so meaningful and inspiring video!!!
this numbr turn paul mauriat music famous around de globe...then year by year continue release a bundle of marvelos instrumntalia ...i heard it since teenager...that makes me love de paul.m's music n bcome his follower til now...de composition ,arrrgmnt n music is great...i wnder how come he producing such astonishing ideas..!!!.
As a teener, I cried to this piece, now at 58 I still cry with strong emotions. This has touched my core being in as much as the poet John Keats and his "ODES". I have been inspired to dig out the music and play again after 29 years. Thanks to my niece, Angel, who sent this to Mainer for her birthday in remembrance of my dad, her grandfather, lovingly known as "PATEY". Melanie Tinsman
I agree with FLAbabie74, as I am getting older, my memories of my youth become more vivid and important. This song had been on my radio every day when I was in Hong Kong in the late 1960s just before I came to US to study. I now live in Canada, I missed my parents and life in Hong Kong very much and this song always remind me about them so much..
This version by Paul Muriat is really wonderful. I doesn't lack the art of instrumentation that seem to be lost nowadays. You can hear superb musical lines played by the violins, the harpsichord and the oboe. It's a little bit like a dialogue. That's it what I call music.
Blue, blue, my world is blue Blue is my world now I'm without you Gray, gray, my life is gray Cold is my heart since you went away Red, red, my eyes are red Crying for you alone in my bed Green, green, my jealous heart I doubted you and now we're apart When we met how the bright sun shone Then love died, now the rainbow is gone Black, black, the nights I've known Longing for you so lost and alone
Does ANYONE know what movie this song played in!??! I am guessing here: on tv in the late 60s? {Because I THINK I was under 10...} It was set in Medieval times. I've searched for the name to this song for years; accidentally ran across it tonight while I was looking for the title to another song, "Christmas Canon"! *ha ha* PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!
i was 14 in 1971. had very severe back surgery. A few songs stuck in my mind that were on the lousy am radio at the hospital. Love is Blue was one of them. Comparing versions, the original seems to have been the one I heard. Maybe it was re released in 1971
Everytime i fall in love just with you!nobody but you,the one and only you babe.I love you so much(with a lot of o)well may be im ocean away...but i cant help...im mad about you.Nagyon szeretlek!
Ye to bahut acchha hai .Hum ko bahut pasand hai .Paul to kafi prasidh de hamare desh mein .UNKO BAHUT PASAND KIYA GAYA HAI YAHAN PAR.YOU TUBE AAPKO BAUT SHUKRIYA.
esta canicon es hermosa y la verdad seria bueno bailarlo en el matrinomio con mi novia salir de lo clasico s epeude decir asi poniendo esta musica romantica y que PAUL MAURIAT que en paz descanze y que de DIOS goze al gran maestro
Yes, there were many. I don't remember the name of the gal who sang it in the Eurovision contest, but the original Paul Mariat version (which I am referring to above) was the big hit. Also, I think Sinatra sang it. I just don't like the "updated" version.
Vicky Leandros sang it in French: L'amor Est Bleu (Love is Blue). Another popular version is by Richard Clayderman but Paul Mauriat's version is the best!!!
I first heard this beautiful music on holiday in Rio de Janeiro in my teens over 20 years ago. Played on the piano by Richard Clayderman the shop owner wouldn't sell me his tape until I literally begged him. Wonderful memories !
I am so glad to learn that you liked Richard Clayderman's version of Love is Blue. To say that I am a fan of RC would be an understatement. RC is just God to me. I think his interpretaion of that love song is the best. Can you please upload it if you have his tape?
Just Amazing!
