  • What year was this

  • Ooh...I didn't know a version of this existed on YouTube! I have the Japanese album it's from. It's wonderful.

  • That last line of the intro "...the candy or your front window"still cracks me up even after all these years

    P.s. I think one of their bass players was Milt Okun.

  • @kyanite2 More then likely the bass player was Dick Kniss who was with PP&M for their entire career. Paul Prestopino would often play backup guitar or mandolin as well

  • I grew up with this! lol! sweet memories...thanks for sharing

  • @ rainbowcougar,

    The pleasure is mine! :-)

  • I was able to produce 1 .ffftve with the G-minor experiment. Any other tones?

    Franklin Ghost Tones.

  • I love the guitar work at the beginning.

  • If you pay attention to the lyric, they were telling about the social unjust, Peter, Paul & Mary songs never dated. Just look around, what they have been telling still happens.

  • Oh my goodness! I sang this is in like, fourth grade or something in music class!!!! But only part of it.

  • This is the original to Sting's "Soul Cake". Paul Stookey wrote it together with Tracey Batteast & Elena Mezetti, based on the English folk song Hey ho, nobody home. First released on Peter, Paul and Mary's second album, Moving (1963).

  • My pleasure. This account of kids trick or treating is very funny! "What's it going to be pop, candy or your front window?"  Cracks me up. Glad you enjoyed it. :-)

  • Always associated this song with Christmas. Ain't Christmas for me 'til I hear four songs: Nat Cole's "Christmas Song", "Blue Christmas" by Elvis, "Little Saint Nick" by The Beach Boys and this. Merry Christmas!

  • Merry Christmas to you too and I also like the old song " Do You Hear What I Hear" !.

    Peace and Love,

    ~~~ Chuck

  • I never knew the name of this song until tonight when it played on the radio just now. I found the name title on the radio stations website. Thanks for posting! I can't believe I finally found it!

  • Don't you love coincidences like that? LOL. Blows your mind when things like that happen.

  • OMG, I have the DVD for over ten years and have been looking for any video of the DVD for many years.........thanks for the post.

  • My pleasure. Glad to be of service! ~~ Chuck S

  • I listened to their album with this song over and over and over on my turntable when I was young. What a flashback! Thanks for posting this video.
