  • Love this song, my dad used to sing it to me and I used to follow the words on the back of the black album. Will always bring back lovely memories

  • such a great chillout song wow

  • This song takes me back to my first ever open air concert in Woolacombe in 1970. We were waiting for the bands to start and this was played over the pa system. I fell in love with the song and it evokes such memories of seeing FREE play live, supported by MAN and AMAZING BLONDEL. Enjoy...

  • Love your songs thank you so much :)

  • I saw Labi at The Stables in 1979 and again in Leicester in 2008. Got to speak to him and he signed a couple of my albums. Love him. He is such a lovely person.. His music sums him up. I wish I could write a song and dedicate it to him, but it wouldn't be as beautiful as his compositions.

  • @nitrammmah

    Wow how lovely! What a lovely person I feel isn't it wonderful when that happens!

  • Respond to this video... 

    One of my favourite songs!

  • great song writer from a great decade, when music was nice to listen to.

  • The great thing about this song is that no one else could cover it, so thanks for posting it, brings back so many happy memories

  • just something simple and lovely about this.

    Saw him play in Belfast around 1972/73.

    great talent

  • Always remember the brilliant Jimmy Young playing this all time classic on his Radio One shows back in the day. Should have been a massive hit here in the UK. Regards both to Labi and good old Jimmy Young....

  • valdery52 i was at the same concert in liverpool, you've brought back some happy memories of that time. wish he would come back to liverpool, keep looking in the local press but nothing happening, dont think labi tours much now.

  • poignant as hell, things to maybe make you smile on an afternoon like this. Don't be sad. Very special.

  • Brilliant song, it had a lot of airplay on Radio Luxemburg in 1971 ish, thanks for posting it

  • Went to see him in 1971 ish at the Shakespeare in Liverpool. Went backstage to meet him. I had a royal blue satin maxi dress with little blue flowers embroidered on and he sang a couple of lines of this song backstage to me. I must have only been about 19/20. I was very shy and remember blushing beetroot, which I think made him sing all the more. Lovely person and a gentleman. Spoke very softly.

  • Truly beautiful song,thank you so much Labi this song has stayed with me since 1970 and i will always love it, thanks also for the posting.I hope that Labi is living a happy life.

  • yesterdays man with a grin, whatever happened to him? words I remember when I'm down and thinking about lifes troubles, the song makes you remember happier days and then I forget all my worries, until a month ago I never thought I would hear the song again after 40 years of singing it too myself, thank you for posting it mbfruity,

  • I have this album and is the greatest song I ever knew. It is my phone tune, my God! I missed out watching him in a pbu in Plymouth..one day I will ask him how the inspiration came for this...Heaven on earth

  • This must be the most beautiful under-rated song on You Tube. Loved this since day one. Why wasnt it a massive hit. Remember it getting played, then it just disappeared.

  • Labi Siffre reminds us of a certain age group of a time when there was love in the world, and we were part of it - despite the terrible things that were going on then, his music was very personal for us..
