  • Samantha, Take me back to The Midnight Special...

    Love Perry

  • So.. al this time it was a man singing?

  • i can see clearly that suit is demonic....great song

  • c trop cool!!!!! it' s really cool!!!!!!

  • I have only read a few comments, but anyone who has any criticism for anyone who has lost a child is cruel. So he or she has lost faith, that is understandable. The worst emotional pain that can be inflicted on someone has befallen this person. If you have faith, then go with it, but also have the compassion and decency to know that when someone has been subjected to pain of this sort, they may lose faith. And if you are a person of faith, you will show them love, compassion, and understanding.

  • I want my brother in law, a great musician, to play this at my funeral.

  • beautiful--love it!!

  • For the guy who made this song his theme song after getting clean, Good for you, I know it wasn't easy. I've walked in your shoes and it took me 3 times before I really got clean. What an appropriate song.

  • Muy bueno recuerdos de mi niñez en Illinois y apenas 2 años y la historia empezaba

  • This was the number 1 song in the US the week I was born! Johnny must have known I was coming to brighten the world! :)

  • How can one dislike this?

  • After a group of friends and family got together to pray for my friends sobriety we seen a rainbow later that day and the next day he went to rehab. This song reminds me of the beautiful day.

  • Happy New Year everybody! Let's make this a great year! Thanks djphongirl for a very meaningful comment!

  • Weird Al, you can do a rendition based on this with the lyrics "I Can Clearly See It's Raining Now"?

  • lindaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

    Jah Bless!!!

  • yay!

  • This Year Has Been A Huge Learning Experence, God Help Us All !!! A.S.K

  •  A.S.K

  • The Chinese figured it out 5000 yrs ago:life is yin/yang. Positive/negative. Good/Evil. When negative things come into your life, throw positive back at it. I lost my 17 yr old son to a car accident in 2006. Adam was a fantastic kid and was the kind of kid who stuck up for the kids who got picked on in high school. He had a true golden heart with a genius mathematic mind, but died on his way to CCD class. I have no more faith in "GOD". Yoga & counseling got me thru it; not drugs or dwelling.

  • @djphongirl

    and still keep faith in GOD also ;)

    may there be many happiness in your life

  • @djphongirl Sorry for your loss, you failed a test, bye.

  • @djphongirl I understand your hurt and deep pain and i feel sorrow for you, but suddnely not having faith in GOD is inconsiderate in my opinion! You have to understand that kind and innocent people such as Adam are lost everyday to their loved ones! So deciding to suddenly stop having faith in GOD when YOUR child is lost, does not seem to percieve to me as if you EVER believed in "GOD" in the first place!

    Once again, I am sorry for your loss!

  • @AZoneone ...thank you, but you have no idea of the pain involved in losing a child so don't be so quick to judge or comment Your words were ignorant and uncomforting and I hope you never have to go through the pain and post traumatic stress order of losing a child. I told the priest I was mad at God and he said "that was okay and he can take it". and I will be mad at God...forever and ehhhhhhh-verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

  • @djphongirl I am sorry for the lost of your son but If you had true faith in God, you wouldn't have lost your faith in him after your son died. Your son was just storm the Lord used to show u what was in your heart..

  • yea i lost my pops last yr before xmas. he and i listned to all this together through my yonger yrs. it gets hard. he now has a grandchild he only held 1x and 1 more on the way. thkx

  • First time I heard this song was in sixth grade. my teacher blast it when the class was takin a test. Love this song ever since.

  • I used to see clearly now that the rain is gone, but then I took an arrow to the knee.

  • hitler saw clearly after Berlin was reduced to rubble's that he was a shithead

  • I remember watching that show when I was recovering in the VA Hospital!

  • Wow, 385 hits in an hour, I am amazed.

  • After so many years and tons of suffering with PTSD, this song still brings serenity to mind and a deep feeling of trust.

    Last V day, I put it up in our reunion; lots of tears and smiles altogether among the buddies. It has the same vigor after hearing for some hours the rockets whistles back in the jungle.

    Amazing, still counting, 2,423,797

  • For some reason I've always thought that it was a woman singing. But it is a great song! :-)

  • I use to sing this in primary, with my bestfriend next to me, today i just lost him, he turned on me well goodbye!

  • My theme song after 20 days in a psych hospital. Was admitted and diagnosed with bipolar disorder the week after I turned 20. 3/92. Went right out and bought the disc. Fortunately, I'm doing well & haven't been back since. I hope that all of you who are experiencing dark clouds will have bright shiny days on the horizon. :) (corny, but well intended)

  • One of the most perfect pop songs ever written. Pure, unironic, heartfelt joy.

  • BRING BACK MOTOWN!!!

  • Lottzapoppin, thanks a lot, same to you, the good Lord bless you.

    You know, after every skirmish, after all LRRP and ambushes, I went back to my shack just to hear this music, the lyrics. It always worked in preserving sanity. Still remember that day when almost all buddies were wasted, I thought wouldn’t make it; but there was always that very bright sun shiny day. Still hear it every once in a while, a magnificent inspiration.

  • 72 HATERS!!!

  • 72 people cant see clearly

  • 2,405,302 hits; awesome for a song this old!!

  • All the way thru my tour in ‘Nam; at last, I saw that rainbow I’ve been praying for…

  • This song can lift any soul out of the dumps... Thank you Mr. Nash and thank you Josegeraldofonseca for uploading this and contributing a big part in uplifting persons like me who is in the dumps...

  • I have been through a lot in my life. Lost my father to cancer at the age of 11, and lost my girlfriend to cancer after a 5 year battle and I am only 26. Sometimes just living life to the best of your ability can be a struggle but you gotta keep going, and in the end things get better. Which is why I love this song. When I am having a bad day, upset, crying or want to feel better this song always does it for me. Thank you Johnny Nash for making my life better just through a simple song.

  • My grandmother (mother's side) passed away on January 27, 1999. This was a favorite song of hers. It was played at her funeral. Strangely enough, when someone in my mother's side of the family (myself too) is going through a tough time or just feeling sad...this song has mysteriously come on the radio.

  • The song is a a definite day brightener. I dig that seventies suit Nash is sporting.

  • This is NOT just a song! It's a real wake up call..... like when the deep calls unto the deep!

  • This is one of my favorite childhood songs! We would spin it at the turntable during family gatherings...good times.

  • please give me the lyrics !!

  • Thanks for the math lesson (on his age) but who really cares when there is music like this in the world? It can't be such a bad place after all.

    Did y'all know this was the song Houston played as a wake up call to those astronauts the morning after they fixed the Hubble telescope? I saw it in a documentary somewhere and it made me smile all day.

  • @wkidd1942..Johnny ought to be just 69 to day(Oct 2011) if his birth date you gave above is correct. But I wish him well, and you too, buddy !!

  • @macvatu Oh yeah, I recognized the mistake just a minute to late.. Thanks for the wake up...

  • @macvatu Sorry bout that... Johnny was born in 1940 and is still 71yrs. now..Thanx

  • Isn't it ironic that i'm crying while listening to this...listening with the hope that these words will be mine one day

  • @hygirl21r7 YOU have the power to make it happen NO MATTER WHAT; for "Trouble never comes to a man/woman unless she brings a nugget of gold in her hand" Just pay attention (to everything around you), by listening and observing and you won't miss your nuggets!!

    Peace.

  • One day i had kind of a creepy xperience with this song.

    I dreamed that i was with this child that seemed to be my daughter (I dont have any kids), and I could hear this song.

    Ok, I woke up but I kept thinking about this song, I knew i had hear it somewhere but I couldn´t remember.

    Later that day, at night, I was watching The Break-Up starting Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn. And at the end of the movie in the part of the credits, this song, (I can see clearly now) started to play.´CREEPY Xo
