MALVINAS ARGENTINAS!!!

[1daveyp]

@musicafederico Multiple exclamation marks are a sure and certain sign of a diseased mind sweetheart.

[skipy936]

You share something else as well, that took guts! He would be proud as hell.

[tabithazoo]

Kathryn, thinking if you today. See you next year at pangborne! Anna Eyton-Jones xxx

[NiHaJeTa]

OMg my teacher!!! o: seriously!!

[dpjd575]

Kathryn, You dont know me but I knew your Father. Liesoning to this again ( and again ) I am brought to tears ( again ). I think of Roger, Souse, and Kenny every year many times. I´m shure he is watching you with a smile. best wishes Peter J.

[ademariam]

Miss Nutbeem, I must say I am so proud of you as this shows how courageous you are and also how brave as you have proceeded with your life while also remembering your father. You are a hero in your own right.

[pogmathon100]

The people who sailed off to the South Atlantic in April 1982 restored Britain's pride as well as the freedom of the Falkland Islanders. I bet the Junta didnt expect us to send a damned great fleet to defend a couple of thousand islanders. It is called 'principle'. It is called 'doing the right thing, no matter the cost. It is called standing up to thugs, we we did in 1940. I bet this girl's father would be rightly proud of her.

[skipy936]

So brave, both your Dad & you, thank you both so much.

[1001Howard]

Roger Nutbeem was one the nicest men that I've ever had the pleasure to know, a great friend. He would be so proud of Kathryn.

[baddacoodoo]

I love her..!!

[robendicott]

Great job Kathryn. Sounding gorgeous!

[agnosticcc]

God save the Queen! Long live the Union! Fuck the Argentinians!

[kkatieot]

[gladys7n]

Roger would be so proud. As we all are.

[lippymoo]

MISS NUTBEEM :O U WORK IN MY SKL !

[millwall33]

Did thi this lady sing this when she was a lttle un on the falklands island back in the 80s or early 90s

[777LOVEINCARNATE777]

Thank you, Kathryn! That was just so incredibly beautiful... not enough words to express the feelings... ;o)

[belleisleloyalist]

From Canada; God Bless!

[skipy936]

You may never have had the chance to say "goodbye" but you say "Hello Dad" everytime that you sing this song!

[andyreet]

I built the RAMC memorial at Fitzroy in memory of the 3 Ramc lads that lost their lives in 82 . It was a very emotional time. I'm also at the back in this video in the RAF Band. Wish I could have spoken to her.

[skipy936]

I am sitting here with tears in my eyes, he would have been so, so proud of you.

[OrientalKnightxz]

"liberate" the Falklands jajajajaj

[Myles0Harcourt]

@OrientalKnightxz

Yes, the definition of "liberate" in this case is the freeing of a people from foreign oppression and occupation.

[golfboy3]

Epitaph for a soldier

Build me no monuments should my turn come;

Please do not weep for me and waste your tears.

Write not my name on honour rolls of fame

To crumble with man`s memory through the years.

..............Then I shall wait

Eager with hope:perhaps to hear"How great

If he were with us still." Then at the end

All that I wish for-"He was my friend."

Taken from SAMA Garden of Remembrance Roger Nutbeem Remembrance Day 2008 For everyone who has lost someone in conflict.

[piepsili]

this song reminds me at the time when i finished school...<3 amazing!

[emmerdalefreak831]

i was at this parade my uncle was taking part

he was with the raf every time i here it it makes me think how lucky we were that he came home from the falklands

brill song

[gillettsibert1]

I am a Falklands Veteran and was there at this commemoration with my wife. I stood on the Horse Guards Parade ground and felt very sad for those who had lost loved ones during the Falklands campaign. But I also felt so very proud, and realised that this was probably the last most proudful thing this country of Britain will ever do before it finally goes to the dogs. Do not judge the Argentinians, it was an evil dictator Galtierie who caused the loss of life on both sides. Thankyou Kath.

[truebrit1989]

Such a beautiful tribute, you have made your father proud, I shall never forget him or all the other young men who laid down their lives.

[grandma11oclock]

SO BEAUTIFULLY SUNG AND SAD

[FonkyLynx]

Bless...

[rockersthealmighty]

I love this song, I sing it for my song and dance solo at dance festivals currently. I agree that it is such a touching song, but i see it as more of a happy thing- that she knows she will se him again one day, hope that anyone in a situation as unfortunate can see some of the light that she sings of. :)

[skipy936]

So sad, so very sad.

[moskerus]

Kathryn, another victim of a war that should have never happened. But it did. Who won? Politicians. Who died? Brave Argentine & British people. Isn´t it?

[cumberlandgap]

Who won? Those upholding and laying down their lives for the freedom of their fellow Britons won - the freedom to be British and live in a democracy safe from tyranny and military dictatorship. What price freedom?

[Jonny2Jags]

Very nice tribute....thanks for posting.

[doettaet]

If your junta government wasn't losing touch with his people that era, they wouldn't have considered to attack the Falklands. Everybody knew that it was a last try to unify the argentinian people with nationalistic feelings. The Junta was wrong, it brought only pain for the losses and shame.

[809SQUADRON]

Hello all, anyone know where I can obtain the sheet music for this song? I've tried all the major shops & the net but to no avail.

[golfboy3]

You could try the Falkland Islands Government. They have an office in London. School children sang "Somewhere along the Road" to the 82 Veterans when they visited recently.

[brendancoul]

I was 21 years  old when i was first bombed by Argentinia May the 1st ,some how ,i hated them that day,i do to this day,my heart goes out to the true Pirates Conqueror ,and Foxtrot 174 ,islas de estados May 11th

[Corporate01]

Hugo Milano you should listen to Cueroso.  We are still in the Falkland Islands. We will fight again and again and die if necessary. Argentina will never have the Islands.

[cridem07]

that fucking traitor doesn't represent us!

get off of my country pussys!

[Corporate01]

Hugo Milano usted debe escuchar Cueroso. Somos todavía en las Islas de Malvina. Lucharemos otra vez y nos moriremos si necesario. Argentina nunca tendrá las Islas.

[hugomilano1106]

Matate puto! me cago en tus muertos 255!!!

Medios Task Force hundida!

Ladrones delinquents!!

Brits!

[tootiredtobeoriginal]

A beautiful song, sung by a beautiful young woman.  Her father would have been so proud of her.

[cueroso]

hermoso tema los britanicos se merecen las falklands , lucharon y murieron por la libertad de las islas

[pampero1234]

habria que cortate la cabeza por traidor a la patria.

[hugomilano1106]

Me cago en el Sir galahad y en sus muertos,muerte a todos los Brits piratas ladrones de meerda!

Viva Argentina!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ukmachine]

Being as the union flag is raised over the Falkands, i dont care what you just said, because the English language will be only language spoken on them island. Face it you dirty spicks, you lost, in your own back, whilst out numbering us lot 3 to 1. basically you lot are pathetic, they were British before country was even born.

Never forget, no surrender.

Rule Britannia

[hugomilano1106]

Me re cago en la mierda de tu país en tus muertos del Sir Galahad, el colonialismo ya se terminó.

Un país de tercer mundo les saco de combate media flota!les metimos el dedo en el culo.

Si no fuera por los Norteaméricanos perdian la guerra hijos de puta.

Tienen que salir de todos los territorios que robaron Brits de mierda

[tootiredtobeoriginal]

El padre de la joven murió en la guerra. Usted debería avergonzarse de sí mismo. Sus palabras son indignas. Usted una vergüenza para la Argentina.

[hugomilano1106]

Los brits no son dignos de nada,son simplemente "delincuentes"de guante blanco se merecen lo peor.

Por ahora la sacaron barata pero ya se les va a terminar!

Realizaron guerras injustas en todo el mundo, produciendo matanzas de miles y miles de personas!

Donce vivis en una burbuja?

Así que con el cuento a otro lado!

[tootiredtobeoriginal]

Usted avergüenzan a la Argentina.

[hugomilano1106]

Ustedes si es que realmente sos Británico.

Son la vergüenza del mundo!

Con cuentos a otra parte!

Hong Kong es lo único que regresaron hasta ahora, porque con los Chinos no se jode, los hacen mierda"cobardes"

Pero ya van a tener que devolver todo lo que robaron!

[tootiredtobeoriginal]

Crecer poco hombre.

[hugomilano1106]

Crezcan ustedes delincuentes, el ,mundo esta en caida libre por vuestra culpa y todas la guerras injusta que inventaron!!

Ladrones salgas de Irak u de todos los territorios usurpados!

[tootiredtobeoriginal]

Crecer, aprender un poco de respeto.

[hugomilano1106]

Quieren respeto? entonces comiencen por respetar al prójimo!

[gallowgate68]

I was onboard RFA Gold Rover in San Carlos Water that day and seen the live feed from the U.K and having seen her Dad's name on the memorial in Stanley this became even more poignant for me. A beautiful song from a beautiful woman beautifully sung. Her Dad would have been really proud of Kathryne. I think this performance really brought home the tears, sadness and hurt for the families who lost their loved ones in 1982.

[golfboy3]

Well done Kathryn. You can also hear her singing on 2 tracks from a new EP, due to be launched in September. See Myspace under Smith and Nutbeem

[grasshopper012]

My dad was on the Sir Galahad when it was hit, he lost two good mates of his.

Also you can see me in the stands at the very end of the video =]

[brendancoul]

i think she should be adopted as the SAMA vera Lynne might (not have spelt that right )from one 82 vet to another good luck

[swlondonlad20]

Amazing!

[treetopcow]

Great singer. As with many who've already commented, this made me cry and I wasnt even there.

[westsidestorycbs]

it was a stunning service, and i really felt moved watching it. it was such a shame the scale was so big, that this was the only piece of music in sync, but nonetheless, the music, ceremony and singing were truly moving, and i'm sure it made every scot, englishman, welshman and irishman proud to be, in whatever way, british. God bless those who died in service- i shall wear my poppy this year with pride.

[magnetchief]

HArdest part of the whole day was standing in the square trying not to cry. Very moving tribute to her father.

[brigham600]

I stood on Horse Guards Parade with the Royal Naval veterens and I do not think there was a dry eye among us, including me. Very moving and at the same time good.

[BaronAaron2]

I stood in that audience...and wept.

That was a service none of us shall forget, it was a true tribute.

[smith639]

I stood in my squad on Horse Guards that day, and along with every man there struggled to hold back the tears when this brave youg lady sang. This song and video will now haunt me for the rest of my days.

[brittosd]

Absolutely outstanding! A brilliant and moving piece of music performed by a very talented woman
