  • This would have been a hit in the 1930s, the 1940s, even the 1950s, if you think about it. Timeless.

  • Sultry song from an incredibly beautiful woman with an amazing voice. One of my all time favourite tracks. Thanks for posting this up. Artists like this are just not around anymore. Wish we could have the old days back again....

  • Thank you God, for the Woman who sing about love and give it and men who are able to give in return...

  • I have surching this one since long time...thx for this post !!!!!!

  • Thus is the power of the Spice of Arrakis!

  • Just a classic, really a love song, good to hear it again.

  • She was a friend of my aunt Beas...down in Buras La. Where you at nowadays Crystal?

  • @011219551 Crystal Gayle and her sister Peggy Sue are still "on the road" touring and entertaining their fans at concerts. Crystal sings most of her #1 hits and Peggy Sue joins in with "Coal Miner's Daughter" and "Don't Come Home A'drinkin' (With Lovin' On Your Mind)". Great stuff for those that still enjoy hearing "voice" rather than "noise".

  • Thanks for sharing.  I have memories of this when I was little.

  • @hallokitty00 I came here after reading the same article! GMTA. :)

  • One of the most beautiful songs ever recorded, by one of the most beautiful ladies that ever existed. I could NEVER get tired of this song.

  • There's a doctor in England who claims that this is now medically possible

  • First heard this in Mike Leigh's "All or Nothing."

  • remember listenin to this on my mums cd`s when i was little :)

  • OMG loved it! I only knew the french version by Mireille Mathieu (which is my favorite singer), but this is amazing too! Loved it!

  • My dad's favorite song. What a wonderful father, indeed; lost him to cancer at 61 years of age, in 1981. Still, I was one lucky son to have such a man for a hero. Love you pop...............

  • Mine are blue!!!!

  • keep your brown eyes baby they are the doors to your soul...

  • I found this song out by: I [almost] got away with it.. :P

  • @kagomespug Haha! Can't believe the coincidence! Me too! Haha!!! Just finished watching that episode where the guy / fugitive stole her tour bus! :D And I was curious who Crystal Gayle is and here I am.... :)

  • wow she has not aged in 20 + years and her voice just as heavenly as ever!!

  • Excellent!

    Thanks Sandy :D

  • She is so pretty!

  • First song I ever learnt on the piano. Found the sheetmusic again this past week to it, and now I'm relearning it. Beautiful song, and it also has a nice swing to it. I love the song when it first came out, and everytime I listen to it now, I still love it. It has a certain charm that not many songs have.

  • my sisters favourite record and because of that one of mine now because it reminds me of her

  • crystal gayle so beautiful with her long hair yaaaaa

  • @sweetbrowneyedlady I think you are wrong, there is diferent preferences, pexample Me, I like girls with meat,more in the 70s or 60s fashion. I do not like the skinny long legs artificial, superficial girls from this era.

  • @sweetbrowneyedlady Don't buy into that myth about men and blondes. All women are beautiful to me, and brunettes with curves are just as sexy. Take it from me because I am man that believes women are such a gift to all men on this earth. Muah !

  • Proud of ( 80's Music and all songs ) 2011 music reeeeely suck.

  • For Lord's sake. The song isn't about changing eye color. It's about making her eyes look sad (blue).

  • @sweetbrowneyedlady shut up. that not what we guys want. we want a girl whos curvy nd nice. maybe its tht youre ugly idk. but tal nd skinny noo

  • @461guy why dont we just accept ALL of them as-is.....

  • @wolfatnight nope nope ugly ppl will get undeserved cinfidence. we dont need that

  • @sweetbrowneyedlady Not ALL men want that, of that I am sure! Maybe you are just attracting the wrong ones? All the best, Muzzy! :-) xx 

  • @sweetbrowneyedlady Maybe you should dump your boyfriend, and find someone that actually likes your eyes?! :-)

  • @BuzzyMuzzyWuzzy lmfao!

    

  • LMFAO

  • used to listen to this song all the time with my cousin and my brother one of the good memories from my childhood.. :) i miss it

  • What a pretty song!

  • my eyes used to be brown, but, in the 90's they turned light green and then brownish green. now they just change from green to whatever they wish...even orange.....strangely enough....never blue.

  • shes so pretty :)

  • Crystal hit #2 in Billboard, 11-26-77. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx!

  • I love this song! I'm the only girl in my 9th grade class that listens to this kind of music! They're all too busy listenin' to tht Justin Beiber crap to listen to good, quality music!!! Classic country is the best!!!

  • @MrsHikaruHitachiin Good for you kid!!

  • @MrsHikaruHitachiin good for u i was dragged up with this kind of music cant beat it

  • @MrsHikaruHitachiin same here. 9th grade and 104.9 country ledgens is all my radio stays on. :)

  • @MrsHikaruHitachiin i thought this was jazz/Blues?

  • @MrsHikaruHitachiin I heard my grandma singing this. I'm so happy my eyes are brown. Haha....yeah Justin Beiber shouldn't be famous. I can't stand today's music. It gets sickening. You hear it over , and over again. Trust me, I'm in 7th grade , and I sort of feel like I'm trapped in a 7th grade body , or just stuck in the wrong time.

  • When I was younger my mom use to singg this song to make me fall asleep

  • dont make my brown eyes eyes blue..i put that on ever pretty shade of brown eyes!!!

    Pia's Eyes Are Brown too...I can picture her singing this Song...

    Bob, Robby & Parker agree...

    Love, Hugs

    `Your 4Romantics`

  • My stress just went out the door, I'm ready for a good smile for the rest of the day.

  • Her voice is sooo beautiful! I heard the "When I Dream" album when I was about 5 and I have loved it ever since! Her voice is like satin. She and Karen Carpenter are 2 of my all-time favorite voices. :) It's a shame there's not more of her songs on YouTube.

  • This is the comment ever LOL! *****

  • i remember my mom and her best friend playing this song all the time :) @maandac2 it kind of does sound like her, now that i read your comment lol

  • It is a very favorite song, and it puts in the library of the personal computer and it always listens.

    After it had listened for the first time, it became a fan.

    Thank you very much.

    Are not good, and I'm sorry by English.

  • Love it... thanks 4 sharing......

  • I love her and Loretta. They have totally different sounds but they're amazing <3

  • ...because of how often the chorus is misinterpreted ("Gonna make my brown eyes blue..."), it was difficult finding this song! Now that I can hear it clearly, I understand the lyrics... and it's sad!

  • increible!

  • beautifullllll.

  • She is beautiful.

  • this song makes my brown eyes blue

  • I fap to this song. Nightly.

  • Τι ωραία φωνή...

  • Classic..

  • her an loretta sound amazing but their voices are so different.

  • Yeah I kno!! I love them both!♥

  • damn what a voice.

    i love my wife, but i see the big d if i were 20 years younger

  • loretta lynn us her sister

    not emmy lou

  • Kudos to Sergio Mendez. This song, in my humble opinion, is much better than the Beatles version.

  • such a classic! I know that Crystal made this a hit and did well taking it to the pop charts...but Just once I want to hear Faith Hill do this song....the vocal styles are so similar and Faith would not harm hit by any means :-)

  • i only heard this song yesterday cause i have to learn it for my singing lessons but i love it :)

  • all the buzz is about that mp4ify site. where can i find it? saves audio and video from any youtube vid to mp3 or mp4 files?

  • really?

  • This is on my 1977 playlist, one of 111 waiting to take you back in time to the great music of any past year, it's time travel with the click of your mouse!

  • This song used to make a specific model of AM transmitter (Rockwell collins power-rock) go off the air when the station would play it! (True story, they used to call it the "Crystal Gayle Syndrome" )

  • offer unconditional surrender

    southern queen

  • El Cid. I ran out of space, so I didn't write that I heard later on that she hadn't got married in the end! Of course, I am sure she married some time later- so perhaps she had another last fling- or two! She was a bit of a ball of fire that's for sure.

  • Crystal Gayle is as good of singer as her older sister Loretta Lynn if not better some times and just think I have now gotten a new generation hooked on this great singers music and her sisters to my 14 year old niece and 9 year old nephew. Just keep the love of great country music alive in the hearts of the young people.

  • I always thought her sister was emmelou harris not loretta lynn. I guess I will have to google it now :))

  • paul uve broken my heart. why? xx

  • love the piano playing

  • tout simplement la classe !

  • What I really meant to write was I bought the album- "We must believe in Magic" back in 1977 when this was a hit from that album. Indeed, we should believe in magic. I think Crystal got tired of having to do this song for a while but I love it."Green Door" was on the album- it was a monster hit a few years later for Shakin' Stevens in the UK. Crystal could have had a hit with it..

  • I went out with a Welsh girl for a single date 30 years ago- she had brown eyes but as the evening went on her eyes went green. Anyway, it's a night I still remember. Before people say "That can't happen", I have greeny-brown eyes and they do get a bit greener if I visit somewhere really sunny- Greek islands etc. Of course, I may have imagined it happened with this woman but I am convinced the memory is correct. I never saw her again- she was going to get married and I was her "Last fling"-!!

  • Nick,

    I'm sure that even after she got married she has had more than "one last fling". I pity her husband!

  • It's a love song jackasses

  • Just saw her Christmas show live yesterday in Sellersville PA. Besides singing Christmas songs she also performed some of her classic hits. Let me tell you, she still sounds great!!! She looked beautiful as well. I never realized she is so small in stature. Guess it's true...good things come in small packages.

  • Great...didn't know she was still out and about! Good for her!

  • Good ol song.

    Irish woman have blue eyes sometimes.

  • Song was recorded in one take.

  • When I was a kid, I totally thought this song was about donuts...."Donut make my brown eyes blue". I thought to myself, why would THAT happen? :)

  • Comment removed

  • @dpaz lol. We tried to call the radio station and request "Don't it make my blue eyes brown" !

  • @dpaz Oh, how sweet....... :-)

  • @dpaz You must be blonde...

  • @dpaz hahahahhaahah Thats funny menn!

  • @dpaz LMMFAO! You goofball! Thanks for the laugh.

  • @dpaz

    Oooooooooh, now that's just too cute!! :-)

  • @dpaz hahahahahaha, that sounds really cute my friend.

  • @dpaz Funny! I think I was 10 when this song came out. I loved it so much

  • Crystal Gayle was HOT! and probably still is!

  • Brings me back to being 17 and real first love. Wow she was pretty PHAT too.

  • What a timeless classic - I was 13 when I first heard this song in 1977. And it still sounds as good today as it did when I first heard it!

    Thanks ever so much for posting!

  • Foxy lady.

  • Not only like in USA, I like this song from Ankara,Turkey

  • Doughnut make my brownies, boo...

  • got some Mad Gab going on there :)

  • Wow, I'm sure I was the only black girl in school singing this song and the Southern nights song. Glad my family introduced me to diversity. Great memories from spending summer vacation in Lexington, where the radio station played C&W no R&B.

  • i really like this song

  • Fabulous song and great to hear it again.

  • Brings back great memories!......Every time I hear this song...I cant but help think of Kris Kristofferson in "Convoy"

  • ein schönes altes Lied ich liebe  es

  • Nice record! Almost sounds like a country version of a jazz song.

  • Watch sister Loretta Lynn introduce Crystal type Crystal Gayle - Snowbird

  • Don't forget this song went to #1 on the Country charts AND Pop(Casey Kasem's top 40), won Her a Grammy too. "We Must Believe in Magic" was the first album by a Female Country Artist to attain Platinum status...Crystal and this song's Writer also won an award for it being the top ten "Most Played or Performed" Songs of the entire 20th century...

  • It actually only hit #2 on AT40, but still a great accomplishment and song

  • This song rocks. And who better to sing it than Crystal? Thanks for posting.

  • Great song, thanks for letting me post my cover above. Hugz. Emma.xXx

  • Tune! I love the piano in it. I'm gonna learn the piano to it. I've not lsitened to this song in aaaaaaaages. It's gonna eb in my head for months now :)

  • wow. i really used to love this song.

  • I do luV her voice...

  • You rarely find women with soft and smooth singing voices like Crystal has..... although Allison Krauss comes close and Jewel is a damn good singer.......but Crystal Gayle also had great beauty in addition to being able to sing wonderfully ; )

  • where is she now?

  • on 2 Oct 2009, she will receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

  • What a great 1977 tune. Beautiful, sad, and haunting. This is the first most of us heard of this striking lady. Her voice was deep, and soulful for a country singer. She could not have sounded more different from her sister Loretta if she tried. And I remember her hair was so long, it came close to touching the back of her knees. I miss times like this, when you could hear so many different types of music on the same radio channel. Now, everything sounds the same.

  • Hey Teddy,,,Awesome share! She's one of the finest,,I have always loved her tunes...Thanks, and 5***** post! Wonderful!!!!!

  • You 'youtubers' are so romantic...

  • I wanna dance with my hunni to this classic song  <333 Mmmmm
