  • Write your congressman, or senator, i ve tried all that. They had no simple answers for me. Even a commander of a police dept. told me this - " If everyone thought like you, i 'd be out of a job." He is thankful foolish people bring him work . IF everyone was sincere with one another , we would NOT need lawyers , courtrooms, or costly fees . But most people cannot get the message to SAVE money or time. I do NOT know everything, but i extend my simple messages like Bill Medley sings

  • I guarantee you , as long as we are ruled by men , there will NEVER be peace until Christ returns. Man promises nothing. However, Bill Medley gave us this song to work with in our hearts. He is an amazing singer, and i am glad he is American with an American message! Unfortunately, wars will continue until the heavens OPEN up its'doors to bring an end to all sufferings! E.T.

  • @ETsonggalaxy I agree with you as a fellow Christian. This song written

    by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil for Bill Medley - says it all. Bill Medley

    was born to sing this song. The message is true and so heart felt. As a

    former combat photographer in Vietnam - you can only imagine that at

    midnight AFVN radio would play 'Peace, Brother, Peace" - as soldiers

    sent up flares to light up the sky. Thank you Barry, Cynthia and Bill.

  • @juvenilehall1979 What? You were a combat photographer in Vietnam? I am sure you saw as much as my dad did in the last battle in Okinawa. Barry Mann and Cynthia wrote a special song for the world to know a wonderful message. I say, and have said many times -" For now , we are ruled by man, but one day we shall be under our CREATOR''S light and power and we will no longer be under man's power. A new heaven and earth will be born AFTER judgement upon man's works -good or evil! YHWH in Christ.

  • This isn't about Obama or Bush or any other world leader. This is about us, as a whole. Until we all wake up and see that we are all responsible for how we treat each other there willbe no peace. All religions have there extremist who have take their respected reigions and have warped them and manipulated the words to fit their needs. Islam is not a religion that teaches hate. It's a Abrahamic religion such as christianity and judaisim. Please educate yourselves before saying islam is evil.

  • How can you have peace with muslims that want you dead?  Wake up and smell the roses, idiot.

  • Well Obama has been in for almost two years now knowallcity. People are still being killed in Iraq and now Afganistan. What do you think of you messiah Obama now. Where are all the posts saying Obama is an evil war monger. Your silence speaks very loudly.

  • @davidurzi  He's done fine,he stopped the collapse of the economy,he stopped the bankers looting,he just announced a withdrawal from Iran of at least 150,000 troops. He created a better medical system.

    btw,He's trying to end wars CREATED by the anti christ bush family.

  • @davidurzi He is trying to end the war by sending more troops over there. Come on. Unemployment is up since he took over. You libs are in another world

  • to knowallcity WHEN. ITS GOT NTO BE NOW

  • Poves a song can have no time limits

  • I wanted to thank you for making this video.. It took me back to 1972 and the thoughts I had then about the END of Vietnam.. Plus the sign off for channel 36.. I was about 10 then,,

    Wow thanks,,

  • Beautiful song and makes one realize how far we are from peace though so many people crave it.

  • Makes me hungry for Reese's Pieces.

  • This is a great song, I want it as the postlude song for my funeral.

  • Obama is in and peace will come. RIGHT ON!

  • I fear the same fate for Obama that befell Clinton. As a non-veteran, he will feel the need to prove he's a warrior. Clinton bombed Iraq for 8 years & his sanctions cost the lives of an estimated half-million Iraqi kids.

    Obama seems to have bought into the "Evil Iraq" scenario & the never-ending, always expanding Afghan invasion.

  • And now you see Obama lived up to his word- soon,no more war,no more torture, make the wealthy pay their fair share.....

  • @knowallcity Do your homework before you speak. The wealthy pay 95 percent of all taxes paid while the freeloaders pay nothing. I have never got a job from a poor person.

  • i love this video , i wish the democratic convention could of picked it up.

  • Many thanx galuemaumaga and knowallcity for your kind words.

  • Maybe we should email KFRC in San Franciso to play it. With the country falling to its knee's, this song brings... hope.

  • @knowallcity KGSC and KICU played this song on the opening of the programming day. I grew up in the Bay Area.

  • How did i miss this one?. It has better sound quality than the other TV show clip..but seeing it sung has more ooomph.

    LOL-I thought i was the only one who remembered the ch 36 played, video.The best thing they ever televised!

    I can still see the setting sun as the song ends....

  • WOW... on a lark I searched for this song...I do remember late night signoff on channel 36

  • It was a very emotional film, that television sign-off, including the robotic old man swinging his fists at some sort of younger type, right?... it was on the old Channel 36 from San Jose, but it was the Bay Area. If someone posted the old Channel 3 KCRA signoff on here with "Bluebird of Happiness" (remember that one? If you cannot find it, I will eventually post it) then someone, somewhere, must have the "Peace, Brother, Peace" film. It was very well done.

  • Please post the "Bluebird of Happiness" and give us all the link. No fair teasing us.

    :)

  • Please do post "Bluebird of Happiness". I am not familiar with it. Thanx for the info on the TV station that did the signoff. I was actually working in Sunnyvale.

  • I have posted the KCRA "Bluebird" signoff, as requested, which is actually a reposting from someone else on here. Now if only the film from this Bill Medley recording were available. Interestingly, this song was very possibly produced by Phil Spector, you know.

  • This tune is as pure and true as the day Bill recorded it. When you have an alcoholic cartoon character with a dangerously low I.Q. running this country all we have is a song and prayer...............

  • YES, Thank you! I have been searching for this song for a long time also....Does anyone remember the video that went with this song? They used to televise it on my local UHF station Sunday mornings back in the early 70's. The Footage was of Bill singing interlaced with some animations of a dove and religious symbols. I would LOVE to see it again. Thanks.

  • My memories of the video were 1n 1972, working in the SF Bay area for a month, the local TV station (KGO?)logged off each night by playing a video with the song, instead of OR in addition to the National Anthem.

  • Yep, that's the one. I live in the S.F. Bay Area and would love to see it again. Brings back a lot of memories for me.

  • thanks much for post. I was ever so surprise to finally get to hear it again - was searching for this for a long time off and on or when I can remember to.

  • I have not heard this song in over 30 years. Thankyou.

  • Yes, it wasn't easy to find, just vague memories of it.
