Rolf Harris : : Two Little Boys (with lyrics)

[melodiemaker72]

This is such a sad song - I cry when I hear it too - I recently saw a doco with an emotional Rolf Harris on. This song was about his dad and uncle who went to World War 1 together, his dad putting up his own age in order to let his younger brother go too. His younger brother was fatally injured in the same hospital his dad was in. He didn't know and didn't get to see his younger brother before did :-(

my mom youst to sing me this song when i was a baby good times :)

[TheSpartan1801]

I remember when I was about 3 my mum used to sing this song when I was upset... So many memories :)

[01cleverlady]

I vaguely remember this song but it reminds me of my childhood when me and my brothers would play with toy horses.good to see other people appreciate this song.

[headwig1010]

@Atomicomet they are in the discreption you may need to scroll down. your from belarus cool but when i hear of belarus i think of that crazy woman (hetalia reference) still sounds like a relly pretty coulor

[charlotte3699]

my mum and her friend used to sing this in the (olden days!) but dont tell her i said that!

[JayneSalome]

@Atomicomet Your parents must be so proud of you.

[spacehopper75]

I was sitting in the garden yesterday listening to this just before my beloved cat of 15 years took ill. We then had to rush him to the vets, where we had to make the awful decision to let him go to sleep (he had suspected brain tumour). Now i just sit listening to this and it makes me think of him. God bless and goodnight misty :-(

[cocomonkey19k]

My mam used to sing this to me and my brothers when we were young. Hearing it again bring back so many memories. Good times

[wishcasterx]

[hellochickenman]

Well done, i remember this song as a little boy,now 44 how many memories it brings back. even i get a tear, the good old days.

[nobbicus99]

i love dis song sooooo much! my dad used to sing it to me before i went to bed wen i was younger!! love u dad u mean the world to me! xxxx

[wolfmk9]

Such a clever man, is Rolf Harris - for this song had one meaning to me as a child, in a fun sorta way; and another meaning altogether after having served in the military myself. Thanks for sharing.

[davythehibee]

funny this song always gets attached to novelty songs when it actually has a very serious theme

[JeEnnniixxx]

i remember this song , my dad used to sing it so slowly to make me go to sleep when i was young . I never knew it was such a big song . its wierd hearing someone else sing it thats not my dad. its like magic to my ears hearing it now :) i love it

[cybergillcybergill]

this deffinatly a moving.....wow...

[craig1mac]

This always make me think of me pal wat a song true friends are there even when your in big trouble

[riveradur]

A real gentleman Australia is lucky to have him.Legend

[paddy66699]

had 2 identical twin bros i used 2 sing this 2 them 2 get them asleep ah memories

[1caballeroaudaz1]

Impressive. What a patriotic song. 

[NUTTA1997]

oh. my. god. My dad used to sing this too me all the time before I went to bed. Now he rarely tucks me into bed. But just listening to this song bought back all those memories. All those happy memories of when I was a little boy :-)

[adminius1]

My three year old girl loves this song, and the two funny boys.

[billrink]

Everyone thinks the initials R R stand for Rolls Royce they are all wrong it stands for Rolf Rules

[billrink]

Back again to listen to this Lengendary Australian singing the best version ever recorded of this song

[billrink]

When I worked for GlaxoSmithKline we were commissioning a new building,and I used to sing this song all the time. Eventually I got another guy I worked with singing it too.

We then started a Rolf Harris Appreciation Society in this new building,and you had to sing Two Little Boys all the way through to become a member,sadly after the building was commissioned all the members moved on to work in other places and the membership fell back to just two little boys (OK two men in their 30's)

[aussietruckieian]

Maybe if the world listened to this song it would be a better place!! What price for friendship?????????

[headwig1010]

4 people r colour blind beautiful song

[Iain1028]

Beautiful song. Wonderful!!

[MrFaze09]

wow this takes me back

[iluvmileyandjonas]

Omg I remember my granddad singing this to me! I am defiently going to play this to my grandkids:)

[LELsings]

This song was not written by him...my great grandpa would sing it to my grandma when she was a little girl every night before bed. During WW2 she sang it to all of her kids before bed, and my dad sings it to me every night. My grandma passed in November and we sand the song it the right way at her funeral. This isn't the actual way it was sang way back when. It was way different.

[ctidcarl]

Never fails to make me cry, this song.

If only life was this pure

[misterwibbles]

wheres the lyrics?

[Rikkyhardo]

Over there ---------> click more info and there they are after loads and loads of info lol

[billrink]

@misterwibbles who needs the lyrics when Australias greatest artist and singer sings the greatest song in the world?

And I'm a Scotsman who would love to be an Aussie.

[mollymitch1]

@misterwibbles You need tyo click on the lines under the picture

[Galacticmaster]

reminds me of the first world war for some reason,

brothers marching into battle

[truemanmasters]

This is NO 1 in my top ten list of most hated records of all time. The lyrics are really depressing and rip straight through you. I think lying in a bathtub of freezing cold water in the middle of winter has more appeal! I'm mystified as to why Kenny Rogers & The First Edition - Ruby Don't Take Your Love To Town didn't make number one, instead of this rubbish!

[Donksn]

@truemanmasters

Haha

[Goldsun100]

Mumma Duck sung this to me when I was young... and I've since then, sung it to my little brother.

<3

[luckyvegas7]

[coolpup361]

[popmusicno1fan]

[ianblfc]

[reelncome]

i dedicate this song .....2 jack and codd.....bles

[meganchalloner1995]

we sang this when i was small in school im only 14 now but when we was little a teacher sang it with us.. her name was Miss Mahoney. The song is so sad.. :)

[101paul]

I still have the 45 version of this that my dad got for me when i was a little lad all them years back......a classic

[TheMattchris]

This song brings a tear to my eye, i used to love listening to it when i was a wee girl. I now sing it to my wee boys.

[redredreds100]

i think you tube is all about tears, are you scottish? i'm english, remember this as a kid also

[TheMattchris]

yeah i am scottish!!! how did u know?

[perfection5712]

wee ....wee ....wee

[TheMattchris]

suppose that is a give away!!!

[lapalad]

Pleased to see from other comments i'm not the only one this song brings to tears. My mum used to play this to my brother and i 30 odd years ago,still a classic

[leeyates9]

this was a fav of mine when i was 3 and sad but not sorry to say when my mum sung it to me i cried every time but kept asking her to sing it again and again,

[kaymerjon]

I love the last picture!!! x

[kezziye]

I rememeber listening to this as a young girl and not quite understanding that it was a song about their life. Now it reminds me of being in the car with my Grandad, and I fully intend to play this song to my kids and grandkids, cause I think its a song with a moral worth. I know that sounds pompus, but I cry every time i hear this now. Its a song with values.

[Stringfell0wHawke]

I understand. My parents got the single for me when it came out as apparently I really liked it (I was three years old at the time), I think that I liked the sound of the song and the drums. Now I listen to the lyrics and it is hard not too shed a tear, very powerful words for now even though I think it comes from American civil war

[dunkymuir]

this song brings happy memories for many, but did you see the documentry about rolf looking into the memory of his 2 uncles who were killed during the war. I think it means so much more to him than anyone will ever know

[florecent]

i saw that show to, when he performed it at the end it was very humbling

[fluffymum101]

@kezziye I know what you mean. My dad used to sing this to me as a little girl and I didn't understand the story of it then but even at 3 it made me feel sad. Now it reminds me of being snuggled into my dads arms as he sung.

My grandad passed away on Sunday and my dad sat and sung it to him as he took his last breaths so it's even more special to me now. Beautiful song with a lot emotion.

[jroach71]

@kezziye Hi, I totally agree, it is a somg about values and it makes me cry too!

Jules x

[lapalad]

@kezziye It doesn t sound pompus many cry listening to this song me included

[cybergillcybergill]

@lapalad agrre wth you i gor a proper lump in my throat waching this

[modernwarfaregal]

@kezziye me too except it's my dad that used to play this song

[bonniebaby1997]

@kezziye it makes me want to weep. i know i may not be a kid (at 14 but still im never gonna grow up:D) but my mom and dad sang it to me and i loved it and when i realised what it was about. such a lovely song. they should do a kids show on television with like the songs of rolf harris. that would be amazing!!

[Jackrhion]

@kezziye u r awesome

[ufewl]

@kezziye i've not heard this for a while but rolf was on piers morgan just now - i cried too. I was a little boy then 6 years old with 2 bothers and a sister.

[ChocolateMuffinEater]

My granny used to always sing this to me when I was little.

[rockabeatz]

this song always reminds me of my grandad, who recently passed away.

[robocab1962]

Reminds me of my mum and dad that passed away. 1969 the song was number 1 with Rolf, always has a place in my heart,good comment and good luck,

[rockabeatz]

[xavierulzok]

[DMKSarah]

[vernieeee123]

i was thrilled to see this song!

i almost cried!

childhood memories!

:)

[IRB93]

I love this song, I'm 12 now but I first heard it when I was like 3 and my dad has a record player (He is like ancientXD Only kidding hes what? 42?!xd) and he used to get so mad at me, when I pulled back the arm and the needle scratched the whole record!!!

[icudabinacontender]

This song was bought for me by my mother and father for my 4th birthday, in March, 1970. I've always had a soft spot for this song and would play it endlessly, with the arm of the record player pulled back (you have to be a certain vintage to know what that means). Now I have wee boys of my own, the song comes flooding back, especially after seeing Rolf Harris on TV the other day discovering the truth regarding his father and uncle in WW1

[Essefen]

Video has no relation to the song

[stuartangelsx4]

this is lovely, i bet you cry when you watch it back.

this song gets me every time.

dawn xxxxxxxxxx

[Orumon27]

I remember my dad singing this too me as a lullaby.

I know, I know, some may find that odd. But then, it helped me to understand compassion, so obviously it was the right choice.

[rosesandbabys]

wow... same... i totally agree with you... also it made me cry loads.... but omg i never thought i would see any one or hear anyone say they heard their dad sung that to them xxxxxxxxxxxx

[Orumon27]

There you go.

[tuktukskagal]

bless these kids.such a fab video...

[sK8erboy5210]
