Hummingbird

[holobody]

In Portland they announced after the concert that Seals & Crofts were coming out later to speak of the Bahá'í Faith, allowing anyone wanting to leave the stadium. Jimmie gave the most inspired eloquent talk. He said that the successive Prophets down through time were like the lights above, connected to the same power source. Their professional courage was staggering. Unique in music. And for Warner to allow for it on tour was unprecedented. But the message was universal to thousands waiting.

'Bro Holler'? There's a prophet named 'Bro Holler'? OK! I'll play along. What's up? Back at cha Bro. Wait a minute. Isn't this about how Jesus came back to Earth already (unannounced and unnoticed) without a peep? The Bible says'; that EVERY EYE WOULD SEE HIS SECOND COMING? OK,,,then. So Jesus came back secretly and resides in the body of Brohollah (or however you spell the guys name?) Do you know a bunch of people risk their souls and actually believe this? WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

@FacetsOfTruth

Risk their "soul"?you act as if though a "soul" is of the body.

I was never informed of a organ called "soul" ,Nor did I know that a physical part of the body can be damage by having an opinion that differs from yours.

hmmmm you know what. From your post i can see that you are most likely an internet troll (the post is to openly ignorant to be real), or a victim of a cancerous mind set called religion.For our sake i hope your a troll. if you not a troll then... *face palm*

[ledboots2009]

[rgengineering]

[jakfuki]

This is still the friggin' jam!

[Karen41872]

Individually, they have great voices........ together, they make magic....... Thanks for posting, Albertan ........ I'm just discovering S&C .... who are of my mother's generation...... but then, they cross over to all generations which appreciate beautiful music.

[Karen41872]

Fabulous harmonics! Thanks for posting! A pleasure to listen to.

[squirt14065]

oh my thanks !!!

[SuperSweetblue]

Born in 1981 here. My parents both blessed me with this music. As I grew older I listened and favored the Rap/Club/Metal stuff you even hear today. But, this music... this MUSIC right here, will never die. It will carry on, because I love it. And I may not have children, but, every child I come across I share this with them. Summer Breeze is by far my favorite work of theirs... but my parents and this era will forever live on.

[inkey2]

you had to be one hell of a talented singer and musician to pull stuff like this off in the pre-computer era.........

[oregonbobv]

A little spirituality, heart and musicality is what is missing today. 

[snapperjohn1000]

this is just smooth as silk . its very rare to find musicianship of this caliber in this day and age.

[TheShiteMaster]

I had this album when I was in 6th grade (?) - Nice song, fond memories.

[jaicaimcan]

[dkraay]

[58936865233]

Love Seals and Crofts, and love this song. It seems so hippy-trippy now, but also so awesome.

[xxxfealerxxx]

[Wolfsky9]

A Vocal-Masterpiece by these 2 incredibly talented guys.  I never, ever tire of hearing it. Wolfsky9

[xxxfealerxxx]

[MrCevichito]

es increinble la emocion que me embarga escuchar esta cancion cien veces deesde hace 38 años

[sergiomats]

I once woke up crying after dreaming about this song.

[jovistep]

oh how I still love these harmonies so much and they look just like they did when I got to meet them in Toronto... before they'd written this beautiful song

[DavelovesRealMusic]

WHy didnt these guys tour after around 1977 ? They havent played a concert in New York in over 30 years@

[mariadpinto]

My first concert, St Francis College in PA, 1974 Seals and Crofts, great musicians, one of the best concerts I have ever been to... to this day!  Thank you!

[Albertan1956]

Yes Kranny I agree with you!

[atrios28]

fretless guitar ! kewl !

[marrionetteart]

I still love your "seals ans cofts"-your mucic and lyrics are beautiful, your music feeds the spirit in me. Seems few do that these days- spiritual music...

[srjimmy1]

like the bees

[skiadikt]

an astonishing video. so pure sounding. they're like a mini-orchestra. the composition is amazing. lyrics. love them in this minimalist setting. are there any more from wherever this came?

[MrArdata]

You know that there is talent there when two guys like Seals and Crofts can create such magic with minimal musical accompaniment

[gulfgypsy]

Haven't you noticed the days somehow keep getting longer?

And the spirit voices whisper in us all.

Haven't you noticed the rays? The spirit sun in stronger

And a new day is dawning for us all.

[vm24seven365]

WOW does music get much better than this? What's happen 2 music of 2day. These guys take me back 2 my youth. And when I hear this song I go back to the best time of my life. I really should have enjoyed it more. Word to our future generations, especially our young women. Enjoy your youth NOW-Enjoy your figures NOW-Forget about loosing weight & caring about what media says you should look like. Remember one thing, the body U have NOW is as good as it gets. Have fun,enjoy your life. Don't wait!

[elfinforest09]

This was my first introduction to the Baha'i Faith. And their story on a local Chico Broadcast back in 1975. How grateful i am for this...

[Albertan1956]

Your welcome MsJune54 and MzRainbowConnection,I am glad I could share it.

[MsJune54]

such skilled musicians & fantastic harmonies!!.....I loved them in the 70's...thanks so much for posting this classic.

[Albertan1956]

Lucky you MrSixCats,I wish they had come to Canada back then.

[MrSixcats]

I saw Seals & Croft back in 1976. They were incredible!!!!!!!!!!!

[Albertan1956]

Kranny so do I! Thanks for your comment.



[Kranny09]

Real voices with no swearing and vulgarities...Novel idea, huh? I miss the 70's!

[MrSixcats]

@Kranny09 Totally agree Kranny.

[Albertan1956]

Your welcome, Seraphim701



[fergusof]

Wow. Great song.  Didn't do as well as their other two because it was melodically complex. Gotta please the 3-chord masses. :)

[Albertan1956]

Lucky you 52Hogan, I envy you!

[KissMeQuk]

I went to an outdoor concert of Seals and Crofts, out in a wooded area, in the summer of 1975 or 1976 in Southern California. It was a small audience, beautiful day, butterflies floating by, and they played songs, Summer Breeze, and Hummingbird and other hits. I was in heaven... I'll never forget it!!!

[Albertan1956]

Karenfan09 I couldn't agree more with you.

Your welcome ladydebbie5.

[ladydebbie53]

Awesome harmony. Thanks for sharing!

[DYNODRUM]

These guys were almost too Good for then or even Now.. Glad we got to experience the realness of what was allowed in a time when Music and Truth seem to matter more ..Dont Fly A WAY......

[Karenfan09]

Harmonies don't get any better than this !!!

[moonpie99]

@Karenfan09 I love them and groups like Queen. Harmonies baby!

[Albertan1956]

Gulfgypsy thanks for your comments,they are greatly appreciated.

[gulfgypsy]

Beautiful song, perfect harmony ....... May each soul find the harmony with The Divine ........

From 'East of Ginger Trees' ...

"Be lions roaring in the forests of knowledge,

Whales swimming in the oceans of life."

Namaste'

[Albertan1956]

Your welcome Zepster!

[Zepster77]

[52hogan]

I saw these guys in Evansville, Indiana and the year was 1974. What a great concert and time in my life.........................

[Albertan1956]

OneHeart52, I am glad you felt that way about the video,thanks for expressing your thoughts.
