  • Climb every mountain, Search high and low, Follow every highway, Every path you know.

    Climb every mountain, Ford every stream, Follow every rainbow, 'Till you find your dream.

    A dream that will need All the love you can give, Every day of your life

    For as long as you live.

    Climb every mountain, Ford every stream, Follow every rainbow, Till you find your dream

    A dream that will need

    All the love you can give, Every day of your life, For as long as you live. 

  • This is still by far the most beautiful classic version of this song. As beautiful today as it was then, and the words are so important. I only wish the recorded quality on this vid was better, but still very glad to find it. Thank you.

  • Magical.

  • the nun's name is mother abbess

  • Listening to this with the context of Skyrim is quite humorous

  • man this stinks this was the best vertion on youtube really get reallity dont try to sing this pop like it ruins it all only good for opera voices

  • i love this song

  • very uplifting.

  • 7 people don't want to find their dream.

  • this is sung by the mother abess (:

  • My favorite part is 0:00 to 2:17

  • disculpen mi intromision soy carlos de argentina y puedo afirmar que he escuchado la version original ;y la recuerdo por ciertas modulaciones vocales, la voz no era tan "de ópera", tenía unos quiebres de voz espectaculares; la voz era más de "abadesa" que de cantante lírica... y su registro lo tengo grabado a fuego en mi memoria y mi corazón... hacia el final recuerdo que tenía 8 ó 10 años y se me hacía un nudo en la garganta (igual que como lo cantaba ella).digan lo que digan no es original

  • i agree with vagabond4good....only version that hits the spot

  • the singer's name is correctly spelled Margery MacKay, not McKay. She is the mother of a close childhood friend and was our Camp Fire Girl and Bluebird troop leader in elementary school. She never received adequate credit or compensation for her solo in this high-box office movie.

  • 5 people either have horrible epilepsy, or are trashy kids with no taste looking to be shot.

  • Grandfather Mountain

    Have you ever been to Grandfather Mountain

    We climbed up ladders to get to the top

    Ladders that I was sure that my Grandfather built

    When I was seven years old

    Ladders that stretched beyond the horizon

    Ladders built on the shoulders of giants

    M.S. Morrison

  • I heard this song and was impressed very much.

    (この歌を聴いてとても感動しました。)

    It played this song with a recorder together at the time of graduation ceremony of the elementary school.

    (この歌は、小学校の卒業式の時に、みんなでリコーダーで演奏し­ました。)

    Thank you.

    (ありがとうございます。)

  • I made a typo it should read - Peggy Wood wanted Margery McKay to dub this song for her in the film because Margery's voice reminded Peggy Wood of her

    own voice when she was younger.

  • @ROBERTARCE1 I like typos.

  • Peggy Wood did not sing Climb Every Mountain in the film. It was the voice of

    Margery McKay. I studied voice with Margery McKay about thirty years ago.

    Peggy Wood picked out Margery McKay to dub this song for her in the film

    because Margery's voice reminded Peggy Wood of her own voice when she

    was longer. You can see this on Wikipedia under Peggy Wood.

  • The ending of this movie always makes me so happy they got away but at the same time very sad that they had to leave behind everything they knew in Austria....

    Such an emotional movie that warms my heart... I feel all the emotions of the characters and the songs are just breath taking.

  • From the Sound of Music

    Music by Rodgers and Hammerstein

  • I heard this song in my dream tonight - It must be at least 15 years since the last time I heard/saw this film

  • Does this song remind anyone of the Largo from Dvorak's ninth symphony? I was listening to it the other day and kept finding myself wanting to sing, "A dream that will need all the love you can give..."

  • @livdreams Dead ringer.

  • whoever sang in that clip film is/was awesome

  • The Mother Superior who sings Climb Every Mountain was played by Peggy Wood. She is credited in the film. Peggy Wood was a renowned opera singer. For more info see imdb.com

  • got to hear this on the church organ at a concert i played at, nearly choked :')

  • As a child I watch this and wanted to be a catholic nun. This went down like a lead balloon as I went to a Church of England School. I've never got the religious thing but I love this.

  • @vbvbvb088 it was the Reverend Mother who sang this .. not sure her name is mentioned in the film.

  • Absolutely beautiful song!

  • I loved this movie, very much. One of my all time top ten. This song to this day sends chills down my arms because of the power and beauty. Love it love it love it!

  • My dad took my entire family - 6 girls and Mom, to the drive-in to see this in 1968. My sweet father died this year, and every time I hear this I remember on my wedding day how this was played right before we walked down the aisle together because I loved this song so much!!

  • God,I have to sing this song,hope I could be this great...

  • this my favorite song today only.

  • i has to sing this 4 my school show :)

  • her name is Peggy Wood

  • 1965 ...nostalgic...

  • 40+ years later, this song still stops me in my tracks. Truly one of the greatest themes in cinema- right up there with "Gone With The Wind- Tara's theme" and the "Lawrence of Arabia" theme... thank you for this!

    DZL<3

  • this songmakes me want to live in the countryside. aaaahh

  • The Character is Maria!

  • lalalalalalaaaaaaaaaaaaa la la

  • Rogers and Hammerstein fudged the truth quite a bit with the musical and eventually with the movie. First, the Captain and Maria met in 1926. Second, she came as a tutor, not a governess. Third, they ended up with 10 children, not 7.  The Captain loved music throughout his life. The list goes on.

  • once again, Disney has screwed up the truth. In the real von trap family, maria was the mean one and the countess was the nice one.

  • we have to sing this song for honor chior ^^

  • @ninjaprincessholly same wit me

  • @ninjaprincessholly Wow! Not much has changed in honor choir! We had to sing it also and this was in the late 80's!

  • This is the repalcement singer for Peggy Wood in this film. Her name is Margery

    McKay. Peggy Wood, who was in her seventies when this movie was made,

    didn't feel her voice was strong enough to sing this song. She did sing along with the other nuns at the beginning when Maria was late to be at the convent.

    Marnie Nixon being one of the other nuns. Had Peggy Wood been younger,

    she would have sung this song easily since she had been a Broadway star and

    a sublime singer.

  • i just saw my school's production of this too. It was great! Most of this song was sung by the nun but it was dubbed at the last note-in the movie.

  • This is Patricia Neway singing this song

    from the original Broadway cast first heard

    on November 16th, 1959 at the Lunt/Fountaine Theatre in New York City

    and closed on June 15th, 1963 at the Mark Hellinger Theatre, also in New York City, N. Y. after 1,443 performances.

  • @raspbry1000 No, it isn't.

  • Peggy Wood is the person tht sings this song

  • @shashu101 Your quite right...

  • yeah it's Julie Andrews but this isn't her singing

  • Duh! Julie Andrews doesn't sing EVERY song in the movie, and obviously didn't sing THIS in the movie. Haven't you seen it?

  • This is a story of a probationary nun a novice who was sent to be governess of the children of a "retired Austrian Naval officer" who was also a practicing Catholic who was to be recalled to the Furher's German Navy who saw the True evil of Der Fuhrer and took his entire family right after Marrying Maria across the mountains on foot to Switzerland to escape the forced return to service

  • i just saw my school's production of this!!it was amazingg it was 2 and a half hours long!!!but it was amazingg!!

  • cute ^^ & passion sister !!

  • Last year I played the mother abbess in our school's production of the sound of music. This song still brings back wonderful memories for me.

  • I stunned to find out that "You'll Never Walk Alone" (same if not similar melody to this song) was also composed by Rodgers and Hammerstein.

  • I had the soundtrack LP when I was eight but it has disappeared over time. Will have to purchase CD. The ending of the film with the choir singing the song is just as beautiful and awe inspiring.

  • i don't care who sings it its awesome BUT no one compares with this original. any questions??? didn't think so. hehe

  • I was 10 years old when i saw the sound of music, i'm now 46 wow. I'm watching it now.A special thanks to Andrews & Plumber for making a wonderful movie

  • @aurajewell

    Just exactly the same :-)

  • I love this song! When I was little I was so inspired by this I wanted to be a nun. That didn't happen x

  • And she plays the Mother Abbess.

  • Peggy Wood - it would be great to see her sing it in the film instead of just the soundtrack...but it's nice to hear it again

  • This is in fact not Peggy Wood singing. In the film (and of course then the soundtrack from which this comes), she was dubbed by an opera singer called Margery McKay .

  • @iskenderuna In the 1960s there was a lot of censorship. Mother Superior was actually telling Maria it was okay to give up her vows of chastity and climb the baloney pony (in Hollywood, "mountain" is code for large penis). Check out the Oscar Mayer commercial "My Baloney has a first name." Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. And Oscar Goodman is mayor of Las Vegas.

  • @etbella3 Okay, you've just given me a laugh.

  • @vagabond4good she did sing it in the film!
