In Japan few people know this song...what a shame...

[hawaii2010ism]

i love the osmonds thay are wonderful .had a huge crush on donny when i was a teenager ,hes still very goodlooking also their voices are still the same.

[Tomasina1616]

ahh...now I remember why Merrill was my #1 fave-rite Osmond. The Osmond Brothers singing this--just as it should be...

[jimmyb227]

Happy Birthday to Merrill Osmond- and this is one of his best!(with the beard!)

[jwdsnapper]

I had pictures of them on my wall....I'm now a 50yr old truck driver !

[jimmyb227]

What wonderful memories! I have always loved the Osmond Brothers- enjoy, and have a great day!

[bevaaaful]

they just get better with age..sheesh.. sexy sexy sexy, all of them.. <3

[debbiechickie5]

It must be such a rush to sing with people (family) who sound just like you and can nail the harmonies and notes just right. perfect!

[geordiegirlnufc]

I still love these guys....never got to see them live...wish I had...

[ciw97]

Such a beautiful song so beautiful :)

[ben8706]

[123lindee]

does Donny know he's got competition LOL you never loose it do you

[2Catangel]

God gave them all such wonderful singing voices. Merrill you and Donny still melt my heart after all these years! Thanks for the music and sharing your lives with all of us!

[chow183]

very good lads

[chow183]

just fab

[candoto]

love this song.

[tecaz60]

merrile you melt my buscuit before iv even dipped

[bouncey24tigger]

oh no Donny does it for me

[nikecordovilla]

the best song of alltime haaaaaaayyyyyyyyyy

[lovemuffin1963]

The ORIGINAL "Boy Band" and one ofthe best EVER!!!

[Freakyguitarman]

I love how somebody thought Rod Blagojevich was Donny Osmond on The Apprentice.

[CrazyforDonnyOsmond]

I am so in love Merrill.

[giantshaun]

what a video, i think the Osmond are the best ever

[Dana888dana]

OK, had to get in my Merrill fix for now - he's like a drug to me; his sexy sexy voice and bedroom eyes just makes my heart literally race! Lyn, this is my favorite video of him singing - his voice is so incrediblely sensual here that he blows everyone away (to me at least!). He is definitely my dream man!

[lynjef7]

@Dana888dana it's those gorgeous eyes Karen (take me to bed eyes) that do it for me, including that grizzly voice and his beautiful gentle way - he just makes you feel everything with your heart - aaahhh meltttttttt.

[Dana888dana]

@lynjef7

Boy what you wrote here is EXACTLY what turns me on about him - to the "T"!!!

Hey - he is 57 years old and is even hotter than ever! How does he do it?

Sigh!!!!

[SaskBlade]

he does have the best voice of all the osmonds

[GU5T4F]

2:15 Joshua Jackson?

[wiccan78]

this is a big moment :)

[dandangirl57]

I just love this video. I had forgotten what a lovely voice Merrill has. But it touches me so much to see Allan, knowing his health issues now. I've loved Donny since I was a little girl. I sat and chatted with him in the 90's - and you know what? A lovely, lovely unaffected man - and I still had my girlhood crush on him. Such a nice - and talented - family.....

[abawl2009b]

I put 1 & 6 in there I hope it worked bonnie

[chrmedbabygirl]

The Osmonds have a huge fan base here in the States. Concerts always sold out when they started their careers and even more so today.

[Ivysmob]

I love the Osmonds, I love their song and even today years later they have a special place in my heart... thanks for posting this :-)

[blondiebabs]

amazing brothers  so much lovexxxbabsxxxx

[sweetpea3339]

Such a pretty version. They are such a class act!

[plainANDshort]

I must be blind because I can not find

the other parts,unless this was and is the only part.

Tell me it ain't so?:(

[jennyschofield]

I can't wait to see these in concert. Shame Donny won't be joining them but I know it will be a fantastic night anyway.

[ContardoholicFan]

Hey Everyone, Here's An F.Y.I. For Y'all: "Alan Osmond has MS, he & his brothers'... Wayne, Merill, & Jay got an Honorary Lifetime BHS Award in the 1980's, Alan's young sons', are known as: Osmond Second Edition."

[mikebe41]

like them or not, it must have been awesome to have a family with this talent. Being an only child, really sucks!!!

[rhiann0n1]

mmm mmm mmm....That Silver Fox has a voice like melted butter :sighsssssssssss:

[milleluna]

Arguably their best song. I always loved Donny best, but Merrill always held a special place in my heart. These guys just never get old.

[piecheesefish]

my mum at 2:23

[lynjoshuaa]

AWESOME!

[glamfoxbuster]

Classic song, classic performers.

Memories of better times.

[princessconnie61]

I have tears in my eyes. This is the prettiest version they've done of this song, in my opinion. Thanks Boys, for not only blessing us with your talent for over 40 years but for being such a shining example of honorable, loving, family men. Your family values have impressed the socks off of me my whole life...maybe because they mirror the ones I was raised with, and that is so rare.

[petmad1807]

I love this! I think their voices sound even better than when they were young. Does any one know where i can get a copy of this?

[rolavarga]

That song is incredible, thanyou

[sweetstuff64]

they are still as good as always! just wish i was that teeny bit older to see them in concert! i am 45 now! and still want to see them all! x

[dinkycake]

How hot is Donny

[CrazyGranda]

i love the osmonds cuz of my mum, she loves donny, i went 2 c the osmonds went they came 2 belfast it was amazing, i made me mum jealous wen donny smiled at me

[HSILVI1]

Great, One of the prettiest songs ever recorded. Memories of my childhood, I was 10 years old. Thans for sharing.

[dcn1019]

What talent!!! Love those Osmonds!!!

[PAPAFRlTA]

Great memories of my childhood...oh God thanks for all...

[donnymad22]

Love it!!!

[chloesnanny]

Love you Donny, always will!!!!!!!

[MegaHoney69]

i love the osmonds because of me mam

[lemonlorns]

Same here :)

[mariamarsh]

Makes me cry every time i see it, amaazing!!!

[rynxkaede]

they serenade me :)

[elizabethjay28]

absolutely brilliant marvellous fantasic all of the men in that video are really really megabrill

[2Catangel]

Wow this is great. It still amazes me as to how much Donny and Merrill sound alike at times.

[DebbyNJ]

Donny looks so thrilled as do the rest of the brothers. You know I don't have Merrillitis yet but I can see why so many do. I hear he's amazing to meet in person. I've met all the brothers (Donny several times) but not Merrill. Merrill has a great voice. I wish he would have persued a country career more agressively. I think he would have been a big success as a country singer.

[Mdorocks]

I hope you do meet him some time, Debbie - he's adorable! So kind to people, and very very funny!

[oldiegoldiefan]

They still sing beautifully , even better

[Dana888dana]

I agree, they do sing even better; their voices have matured and sound awesome!

[Carol1919]

Doesn't everyone think that Merrill should have had a solo career?

[Dana888dana]

Yes, he most certainly could and should have! His voice is mesmerizing and his looks make me melt!

[lynjef7]

You know Karen I met Merrill at Shiloh this year and I thought that when I did that it might curb my em 'enthusiasm" for him NOT in fact it just made me love him even more he was so wonderful - every time I watch this video he just makes me melt.

Lyn (mwah)

[tabngoc]

Tớ rất thích mấy cái bác già già này hát nhá, nghe hơi bị hay bè hơi đỉnh ^-6

[Dana888dana]

OK, time to gush over Merrill again. I still have Merrillitis and it's not ending.  Sexiest man who ever walked this planet in all history! Sigh!

[Mdorocks]

I soooo agree! HA!

[Gransue47]

Wonderful, I could listen forever, their voices work so brilliantly together x

[bedlum47o7]

the 4 bothers where at the grand old opry hotel back in 1987 (i was 7) doing a interview called Nashville live. i saw them on the close circuit TV in the hotel. there was a stage down stairs. so i snuck down and into the bar( past the guards) and walked right up and sat on merrills lap and started talking to him. (Yes right in the middle of the interview.) my mom saw me on tv and ran down to get me. they liked me so much they gave us front row for that nights performance. ill never forget it.

[lynjef7]

Oh that is such a sweet story 'bedlum' thanks so much for sharing it.

And just to be cheeky I wish I had the chance to sit on Merrills lap (but not at age 7 lol).

cheers

Lyn (Sydney, Australia)

[bedlum47o7]

your welcome, it would be nice to find and see if that interview exists. i loved the osmonds back then, so much so i used to dream about being the drummer. i would get moms Tupperware and set it up like a drum set. i used ice cream buckets and the lids and symbols and i would follow along. I have photos of me doing this. your welcome from the story

[havucnit]

I loved them as a teen. Now, more experienced in musical talent, I adore their harmonies and family blend. To see them now and hear this song, I'm very impressed. I got chills the first time I saw this and come back to it daily; only to get the same feeling as the first time.  Every time I watch this video, it makes me wish all families could be this close. Beth

[collonbiscuit]

addicted to this song man.. donny osmand is so handsome ! :)

romantic to the max

[Dana888dana]

I'm addicted to this song too-not enough I have to go on YouTube to see it but I play it in my car every day. But I only have eyes for Merrill. . . . .

[lynjef7]

Me 2 its Merrill all the way he's just so Merrillovable.

Merrillyn (mwah)

[piecheesefish]

lol its my mum at 2:23

[cortedemanga65]

Que agradable ver, como a pesar de los años, aquellos hermanos jovencitos que encantaron con sus canciones se mantienen unidos...probablemente la razón sea los valores humanos que les dieron sus padres y la espirituialidad que entiendo mantienen en sus vidas...

Siempre simpáticos y humildes, muy distintos a los "ídolos" del momento...

[maryautism]

In my opinion, that is one of the most beautiful songs EVER. They are the greatest still.

[lynjef7]

I love 0:22 just beautiful

[Dana888dana]

Oh Lyn, yes, those sexy smiley eyes. Meow!!! Take me now Merrill!!!

[Lavendergaljackie2]

That was very beautiful and brought back so many memories. Love it when they popped up on the screen on the backgroung when they were younger. That brought tears to my eyes.

[tedchie]

wooooow... i used 2 tell my moja "most of the time it is.. but original isnt always the best..." but in this one.... holy cow, r u kidding me???!!! THE ORIGINAL OF THIS IS THE BEST!!!!!! i met merrill the other day... my dad and them r best friends... and its like the very frist time, ive met him... hey now?! lol.... gota love them....

[marjanduijsens]

I simply love Donny sorry girls, can't help it. He is by far the most handome man I know. They still sound like a boy band. I love it but my fav is Donny :-)

[marg1919]

Merrill is definately the best! beautiful!

[Dana888dana]

Oh yea! He thrills me to the bone! The boys look great here in this video but I only have eyes for him! His voice, manner, eyes, are lethal! No man like him around where I live or for that matter I can't think of anyone who can compare!

[GANN010355]

The heck with Donnie! Merrill will always be the Best!!!!!!

[Twiff13]

They still sound blooming marvellous! Wow .... I am a teenager again, lol!

[Dana888dana]

Had to get my Merrill fix on this my favorite Osmond video! His voice is sooo sexy it thrills me to the bone! I love the part they all look back at the video of their younger selves; something about that moment touches my heart. Merrill you are and always will be a hot hot babe!

[lynjef7]

Watching this video is the best way I know how to get some MLC (Merrill Loving Care) he is just too beautiful for words especially in this clip at 1.33 the way he looks into the camera 'pleading' aarrrgh drives me crazy.

Phew I'm going for a cold shower

Lyn (mwah)

[Dana888dana]

He drives me crazy when shortly after 1.33he does that little "growl"! OH MY GOODNESS!!! Think - I - am - going - faint . . . . . thump!!!!!

[lynjef7]

Ok Karen you've been tagged

Merrillized

babelicious

sexalicious

ok g/f your turn you've already got one come up with two more hehehe - after you get yourself up off the floor of course after that faint LOL.

Merrillyn (mwah)

[Dana888dana]

Hmmm. I have to concentrate on Merrill's gorgeousness to create the special words . . . Merrilluscious. . . . Merrilladdict .. . and best of all

Merrill Orgasmond! Ooops! Did I say that???? Bad bad girl! If I were reading this I would think this lady is nuts! Yes, nuts over Merrill but normal in every other way~

[Dana888dana]

Yes, he was looking at me Lyn and only me! Heee Hee. And how about that sexy "growl" at 1:36? To die for! What a mawvalous voice that man has!

[lynjef7]

I beg to differ g/f I think the sexiest man on earth was looking at meeeeeee heheheh.........oh dear

I'm dreaming again I need to wake up now.

Merrillyn (big squeeze g/f)

[marg1919]

Dont think he was looking at either of you Karen/Lyn LOL! -but I cant possibly comment!

[lynjef7]

Hey Marg good to hear from you but hahaha the cheek of it - he's definitely looking at meeeeee.

Merrillyn (big squeeze to you g/f mwah)

[marg1919]

Just had to come in for one more peek! You might be right Lyn -OMG he is looking at you- at least he will be soooooooooon! help Im not supposed to be posting on here-last one!

[Dana888dana]

Hey we can dream can't we? LOL :)

[lynjef7]

We are dreadful aren't we dreaming about a man we can never have - big sigh.

Lyn (mwah)

[marg1919]

Im def not coming back in here -just tooooo much for one person to take LOL!

[Dana888dana]

Ha Ha we all have to get our Merrill fix - I just can't keep away from this one video, my favorite! Oh, and by the way, let's just settle this - Merrill is looking at ME! Ha ha are we still in junior high???? I don't care, it's a nice diversion. I hope Merrill doesn't think we're silly because in real life I'm perfectly normal!

[lynjef7]

Ha Ha yes I think I'm perfectly normal too though a little crazy (okay a lot crazy) for that one perfect man Merrill. From 1:35 my heart just does a flip.

[marg1919]

Our Merrill! well what is there left to say.

[Dana888dana]

I know, but I keep trying to think of new ways to gush over him. I'm running out of adjectives but how do you describe the indescribable? Merrill has something about him that drives us crazy!

[Dana888dana]

I was looking at my previous comment and started to realize okay I am starting to repeat myself already about this man. I better lay off my craziness for Merrill for a bit before I sound like a broken record!

[maryautism]

One of the prettiest songs ever recorded!

[shealways]

donny is so shaggable

[tom1234wwe]

Happy 51st birthday to Donny today - 9th December, fantastic memories x

[Tashawelling]

Can Someone PLEASE! PLEASE! Uploade The Full An Audience With Donny Osmond As I missed This When It Came Out!! We Didn't Have Sky At The Time So PLEASE!! PLEASE!! Uploade It I'd Be Most Greatful!!!

[Mharii33]

This video has made my day!!! Thanks so much for posting. Brought tears to my eyes. Always loved the orignial video but ths is almost new, they sound more experimented (cause they are), and they look great. Is this video available to buy or download?

[Anna9563]

From Anna,

Hi Mhari, Unfortunately I don't think it is.

Your friend,

Anna

[Dana888dana]

I had to check out this video again just to see Merrill; he looks so awesome in here! You can see his gentle soul through those wonderful eyes of his and that oh-so-sexy voice that touches my heart. He does bring out something in me! No wonder he said he gets death threats from husbands!

[lynjef7]

Oh I know what you mean Karen, there is something so special about Merrill in this video - his bedroom eyes, his sexy smile, his grizzly voice, that beautiful gentle soul - OMG he just leaves me breathless.

[ryuichiae]

great!!!!!

[gypwin]

fantastic.but also check out 'gypwin' or 'gentleman john' on you tube.you might be surprised

[indianwhite]

The Osmonds, are the Osmonds. No matter how old they are. Osmonds FOREVER.

I can't imagine though what Boyzone members will look once they reach their ages. I only bet they will look pitiful compared to these gentlemen.

[sheilaskelly]

donny and jimmy look better now than they did in the 70s

[mdtcymn]

To be honest, those old gentlemen sing much better than Boyzone....

[mimamagyar]

I'm sure they'd love to be referred to as "those old gentlemen"... : )

[sherman360]

PERFECTION!

[Dana888dana]

Does anyone out there know how tall Merrill Osmond is? I can't seem to find that information when I goggle it. . .

[alleycatpink]

Hi is taller than Donny I know that.

I think he is around 5ft 10"

[Dana888dana]

Oh alleycatpink thank you so much! I really wanted to know. Merrill is perfect!

[donnyoslover]

I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!

ItIs One Of MY FAVORITE OSMOND BROTHERS SONGS!!!! And They STILL HARMONIZE BEAUTIFULLY!!! And They STILL LOOK GREAT!!!! donnyoslover

[Dana888dana]

Dang! I just rediscovered the Osmonds 34 years later! And baby they still look and sound great! I never noticed Merrill before until now; I always thought Donny was the main one. Merrill has the best voice and still looks very very sexy. Meow! I'm glad these guys are my generation; I think guys looked better back then than they do today with their shaved heads, baggy clothes, and tatoos. Ick!

[SaskBlade]

I totally agree... i have a complete new respect for the other osmonds..and jimmy too.. Both marie and donny had the group as back up..where as the group only had themselves... and yes merril does sing the best

[Carol1919]

I agree. There is nothing worse than a shaved head. I love Donny but I think even he could grow his hair a bit longer.

[Dana888dana]

Funny you should say that; I was thinking Donny's hair should be longer especially in the front. But he certainly keeps himself in fine shape! So nice to not see tatoos and piercings and gross stuff like that.

[lembellglitter]

cant get over donny .hes so goodlooking.cant believe hes 50,looks late 30s.

[Anna9563]

From Anna,

Hi all, Always think its so cool that they all sat down for this song so Alan would be more comfortable. I have a little bit of an update on Merrill. His site says he has/had an ear infection. That's why he went to the hospital.

Your friend,

Anna

[Terryeme]

I saw the Osmonds for the first time last month in Las Vegas. They were great! I've been watching them on You Tube ever since.

Lynjef7, I share your passion for Merrill! Thanks for all you videos.

[lynjef7]

Hi 'terryeme' you've been Merrillized just like me - he really is too beautiful for words. I'm glad you're enjoying all the videos.

cheers

Lyn (Sydney, Australia)

[cathychokr]

Merrill's seducing sexy eyes hasn't changed a bit. So sexy still. Love them so much^^

[lynjef7]

Ah 'cathy' you've Merrillized as well - he really is so awesome and I totally agree with you about those 'seducing sexy eyes' they draw you right in. Hope you're enjoying all the videos.

cheers

Lyn (Sydney, Australia)

[Dana888dana]

Yes they have! They got even S-E-X-I-E-R!

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooh!

[buffypii]

I adore this song and tha singers!

OSMONDS ROCK!

[hilarioph]

The Osmond are the best

songs of the 70's

[blazerr]

Such as fantastically talented group of musicians...still, it looks like Donny is singing with his great-uncles up there

[andyjh64]

When I was growing up in the 70's the Osmonds were to be beheaded. It's only in more recent years and through clips like this that I can fully appreciate what outstanding and talented young performers they were. Forgive me father for I have sinned - these boys are the greatest!

[chickdafamdenise]

They still sound wonderful. So much talent. I wish we'd see them these days. We need good music like that again.

[lembellglitter]

my god donny looks great,he looks so young for his age.hes still very good looking

[sweetelixer]

I can still think of 100 WAYS to love Jay.. never mind reasons.. LOL

[lynjef7]

That's how I feel about Merrill 'sweetelixer' - love him for a reason in more ways than just one.

Lyn (Sydney, Australia)

(mwah)

[janessister]

I have re-discovered my heroes from my youth and now I can see (and hear) how good they really are

[Pammy1960]

I like how they've embraced and accepted their past, but march on forward. It makes their songs even better.

[glcfordco]

Love this arrangement of this song. Agree with Marinetv - Donny still looks pleased to be singing with his brothers.

If you understand what I mean.

Thanks for the vid.

Gailxx

[Marinetv]

thanks. yea he will always be the little brother.

[glcfordco]

Yes, bless him. He's seems to spent his whole life with a 'can I join in?' speech bubble above his head.....in the nicest possible way.

xxx

[Symmetry44]

I really love this and if you tell anyone I'll find you and kick your ass! LOL jk

[ercito]

Se me cayó alguna lágrima. Gracias Osmonds

[grievousangelic]

Alan is actually doing very well on that Immunsyn. Check out his web site.

"Love Me for a Reason" is still one of the best pop love songs ever. Just beautiful. Everything about the song works.

[barzoman2]

Guy's I have a quistion about the osmonds root's and if someone knows I would like to be talled:

what is the original root's of the osmonds

are they from England or Germany Or spain Or where ??

I know thy are americans but I need this info and long time I'm asking this to my self..IF any one knows please I would like to know.

[jwocrazyhorses]

Their family is from Wales.

[meviek]

A very nice lyrics "Love me for a reason and that reason is LOVE" how toucchinng,we must love by heart but wd. limit,love our selves too so as to have respect Love has many reasons b'coz love is...GOD!

[Marinetv]

even after 50 years donny still has the little brother look about him while singing with his brothers. i love them all.

[Crazyhorselady]

oh, my!

Doesn't matter how often I hear this song, I stillll go weak in the knees and my heart just melts! Just goes to show that they DOOOO get better with age, huh, lyn? :<)

[CGAWLEY]

I'm curoius. How has Alan been faring onstage during their tour ever since he started taking drug SF#1019 (AKA- "Immunicin") for his MS?

I've always loved Alan, & I applaud his strength & conviction to not let MS rule his life!

[CGAWLEY]

I hope to see them in concert when they come to Canada. They are the best!

[bunnyluv41]

Beautiful harmony! Merrill still has it!

[teebee1984]

How brave is Alan... I just love the brothers. What a lovely family

[jeanyeo1]

I will be going for their 50th anniversary concert this 17th June 2008 in Singapore.

They are fantastic!!!!! I had loved them when I was much younger however I still love them till this very day. Simply the Very Best!!!!!

To see them so united as one complete family. My heart goes out to Marie during the latest show in tv when she cried recalling her dad. I had lost both my parents and I know what it is like. Be strong Marie.

We love you!!!!!!! : )

[teebee1956]

One of the Nolan Sisters was crying at the end.

That is the emotion the Osmond Brothers instill in the audience.

I saw them in Cardiff two weeks ago and they were fantastic, but there was always a time when at least somebody had a tear in their eye (I certainly did).. Alan give it everything, many congratulations to him.

The show was a triumph, just goes to show talent will always prevail

[wkclax]

Wonderful!! Osmond's best song!!

[tonnyosmond]

love this song .

[CGAWLEY]

PLEASE tell me that this performance is available on dvd. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!!!!

[JenniPink]

I've looked and can't find it but if you ever do please let us know

[Fan4Cliff]
