  • Silly dancing trivializes this masterpiece.

  • très belle chanson

    

  • Maria Carey- you can never give this song, the spirit and feelings, Harry Nilsson gave it.....no matter your screaming...

  • Nilsson is one of the classics of his era

  • One of the single best songs of all time. And the perfect performance.

  • Have a listen to "No Matter what you are" and "Baby blue" by badfinger great songs.

    but very sad what happened to the band.

  • all of the great songwriting of the 70s lives on today and forever. i wish the young writers of today would put there ear buds in and take a stroll thru a time when gas was cheap and weed was free. well almost! mariah carey is nothing but eye candy. she dosen't write any of her own "music". she is a pop singer. which is equal to crap!

  • you wake up in the middle of the night and these girls are dancing in your dining room

  • I love Harry Nillsson but this creeps me out

  • love this song but this video makes me want think that Freddy Kruger is gonna pop out at any moment

  • Yeah creepy, don't watch, listen...

  • I thought Pan's People were going to start levitating @ 37secs.

  • the innocense of love till love is no longer innocent

  • beautiful

  • Would you rather five naked guy's wearing jock's

  • The story of Badfinger is probably the most tragic in the history of rock. Ham and his best friend Badfinger bassist Tom Evans both committed suicide (by hanging) in in the mid-70's in the UK. Nilsson's cover of this song became world famous in early 1971 and is now considered Ham's singular masterpiece. Unfortunately, Pete never lived to see his song become immortal thanks to Harry's version of it:(

    ..a true classic.

  • @GUIDOBRAT Thanks for reminding us all about Badfinger. I recently bought a CD of them ....part of the Apple label re-releases and had forgotten what a great band they were.

    Search "I'd Die Babe"....George Harrison produced the song and plays guitar....an undiscovered classic.

  • @GUIDOBRAT It's a shame....

  • I hate the fn commercials when a video starts...

    I love this song, but what the f is with the horrible ballet man!!! It is good that Im mostly just listening to the song and not wathing the entire video

  • Why everybody put down this lady! She was a struggling actress and she was called in to dance in this poofy dress pjama outfit for our delight! She struggled for many years with alcoholism and petty theft until one day in 1982 she was found dead in a small shack in upper Pennsylvania. In her hands was a crumpled 45 of this amazing song. RIP Miss Maria Boppers

  • Great tune. The gowns are hillarious....so dramatic!

  • his voice did all the work

  • Harry nilsson did not write this - this is a badfinger song! Harry just stole it and never gave a penny to badfinger.

  • @UpstairsMaid lol...you sound like an angry child. I'm sure if Badfinger wanted royalties from the song Harry would have paid it. lol...child.

  • @zorgen123 I was simply correcting a factual error. you obviously are ignorant of the story - and angry that someone doesn't view harry nilsson in the awe-filled way you do. it seems you like to resort to  at ad hominem attacks rather than intelligent discourse. Badfinger did want the royalties - but nilsson screwed them over.

  • why has music like this died???? fake posturing by boy/girl bands, down with their "shit" being cool, totally soulless music, im glad i was born when i was, this is music from the soul, heartfelt.xxxxxxxxxxxxx

  • @westha1233 Thats not true it was reamde in a very crappy way by Mariah Carrey in the later years with such great pride and gusto in a very inferior way of course.

  • @mrfrogbutt1 Mariah Carrie SUCKS

  • @Sutter42 yeh, as it turned out, mariah carey was pretty one-dimensional. not much more than an advanced ameteur.

  • Badfinger's song

  • @informaticscheckout so the fk what. Yes, Badfinger wrote the song and did a pretty poor job performing it. Harry did the song beautifully and really did it justice.

  • @zorgen123 agreed

  • @zorgen123 LOL are you serious? The Badfinger version will always be the best, maybe not the most famous, but the best and most heartfelt. I do agree though that Nilsson really did do the song justice.

  • Haha, Pan's people. So truly of their time.

  • Pan's People? Sounds like something from Spinal Tap.

  • Creepy Vestal Virgins.

  • you put the lime in the coconut...

  • tHATS NOT pANS pEOPLE THEY have clothes on.

  • saw the boys in badfinger do this back in the day. they were awesome lads. so was harry. goodbye boys. see you soon.

  • Ahhh Pan's People *sigh*

  • superb song, amazing bad video - thanks for posting though

  • 9 people committed suicide to this song while listening to it and hit the dislike button.

  • @bloodOFaViking bad joke...

  • @bloodOFaViking Did they die first

  • Did anyone else think the chick at the start was going to burn up?

  • RIP Flick Colby - you helped a ton of teenage boys begin to think that sex might be worth dancing for...

  • това е оригиналът........а не марая кери

  • това е оригиналът........а не марая кери

  • Rules of Attraction.

  • Bad video? Matter of taste, I guess: I like this ballet. Good video.

  • They were called Pans people before video there was dancers

  • You think this is funny, check out Randy Vanwarmer's you tube viddy of "Just When I Needed You Most" with the chicks doing a precision suitcase dance. The suitcases, I guess, signify the leaving part. Hilarious routine...not supposed to be.

  • Surely Harry didn't approve of these disgusting moron freaks dancing to this song. PATHETIC!

  • Comment removed

  • I can live without you. I just don't want to....

  • Just because everybody's asking... this clip is from Top of the Pops, and the dancers are Pan's People, TOTP's resident dance troupe, who would show up whenever the artist was unavailable.

  • justin beiber does't have the soul to do this!!!!! the 70's muzac rox...nothing compares!

  • Are those Mormons?

  • it may seem a bit creepy.. but mesmerizing all the same. I had to keep watching..... watching...... and I ended up like this by the time it was done.

  • Anybody ever see the "Behind the Music" episode about BadFinger??? It should be made into a movie! Great story with a sad ending!

  • @triplej1955 funny.....

  • Naked women. I blew my mind imagining them nuns necked

  • Great song by Harry, creepy video with creepy women.

  • Beautiful song... bad video!

  • @maimou Video rules.

  • it's so wrong to dance to a song that is actually quite depressing.

  • @thevoid99 I don't think that is necessarily true, dancing is just another way of expression and just like music, it doesn't necessarily need to express joy...

  • EN LA VIDA HAY CANCIONES QUE T ENAMORAN

    CANCIONES Q MUEVEN TU CORAZON

    CANCIONES Q TE HACEN LLORAR

    CANCIONES Q TE HACEN RECORDAR

    CANCIONES Q TE HACEN VIVIR

    PERO NINGUNA TE RECUERDA TODO .  PARA QUIEN ME OLVIDO

  • What's up with the chicks in the Puritan night shirts?

  • @tripleJ1955 Ah, the delightful Pans People...they had the ability to piss off teenage girls, excite old men and ruin a great song all at the same time!!!

  • Comment removed

  • @tripleJ1955 - Much better dress than today, I must say! Doesn't anyone remember that unwrapping the package is almost as much fun as what you do after it's unwrapped!! Grrrrrrrr!

  • @amoskowitz0103 I'm no expert on women's fashion but I didn't realize puritanical pajamas counted as a dress let alone fashionable, ever.

  • @tripleJ1955 It would have been better if they were naked.

  • i love this song

  • Nossa da ate vontade de chorar. muito bonita essa musica.

  • Harry obviously too pissed to appear

  • Ironic that Harry's greatest song wasn't even written by him.

  • A pretty, but sad song to play when your old lady leaves you or your dog dies. Disregard the God awful stuff that passed for a video/choreography in '72. This had to of been directed by some old fruit who pranced around in his bedroom throughout his whole childhood wishing he was a princess. {All that being said i remember my older sisters listening to this song when i was just a sprout in the early 70's and couldnt figure out why they'd cry everytime they listened to it}

  • very touching..

  • too much twirling

  • beyond doubt the best record of 1972

  • PORRIDGE -the movie.

  • q asco xD q hacen?

  • it woulda been better in Hot Pants!
