  • Merrill rules!

  • Wow.. With a click of a button I found this wonderful SONG! <3

  • Comment removed

  • I love the way they all move together!!!!

  • Seeing Wayne, Merril, Jay and Jimmy in Guildford next March, can't wait.

  • I will always love them. I can't stop watching these videos since I found them. They're voices are soooooincredible and the words of their songs make remember how romantic those seventy years were.

  • beautiful song. fantastic harmony

  • Great song by a great group: The Osmond brothers..

  • My mother told me once she was a huge fan of the Osmond Brothers. Though she never really told me which songs she particularly liked/loved....I regret I never asked, cause now she's gone...but I'll find out though...I like this song!

  • love donny

    and the osmonds music is great

    i have my mums taste in music tehe

    x

  • The very best lead singer ever. Love you Merrill and brothers.

  • @titansful Your gayness is showing.

  • @solomanspaming Your stupidity is showing. Go get a life and make fun of someone who really cares about what you think or how you feel because this person does not give a leap about what you think.

  • I have been and always shall be an Osmond fan. Just love this family. Most talented family ever.

  • FANTASTIC!!

  • HEY, HATERS! THE JACKSONS AND THE OSMONDS HAD A MUTUAL ADMIRATION FOR EACH OTHER!  They both had 9 sibs. Their mother's B-days were on the same day and they BOTH WORKED AS HARD AS HELL FOR A L O N G TIME! They were both EXTREMELY successful and for my fellow African Americans - Donny's ASS can SANG! Take your negativity and listen to something ELSE!

  • i never get tired of watching any of their videos.

  • I love this song.

  • Thanks for sharing this Lyn. The Osmonds have such a wonderful effect on us all. Donny and Merrill have me in tears all the time. They are such wonderful men who grew up before our eyes through the years. 

  • love the smooth dance moves!!!!! No body moves like the Osmonds.

  • all this beauty and talent in one family man what a blessin

  • its quite difficult to do their moves >.<

  • Thank you! Wonderful blast from the past. I saw The Osmonds live in 1975., it's still a sweet memory.:)

  • I absolutely love this song, and The Osmonds are brilliant :-)

  • Just those suits and their unison in the moves the voices *swoons ive listened to this about 50x now and i cant help listenin to it and when they sang it 50 yrs later in 2008 it was still amazing with more matured voices. theyre just gorgeous and ppl say im born in the wrong year...im 17 and it feels like ive followed the osmonds forever =)

  • I really enjoyed the OIALT, and Jimmy is great...but NOTHING beats this line up of Osmonds...........love it and each and everyone of them! x

  • man how come noone in my neighborhood can look and sing like this lol

  • * BIG SIGH*  WOW! I agree Lynjef7.... It doesn't get any better than this! :)

  • first time I saw this I got shivers! what a classic!

  • AWESOME FAMILY

  • I'd never seen this clip before. Love the outfits. Love the dance moves. Love the voices. Love THEM!! This was the kind of Osmond magic that just got me hooked as a teen. Do you know what show it was from? Thanks for posting it!

  • I got to see Alan, Merrill, Jay, Donny & Jimmy last night at the Davis Family History Fireside. It was so awesome! Wayne was ill & Marie wasn't able to attend, but the others were there & did an awesome job!

  • love this song

  • lyn, I've had a very hard year as well, loosing Dad, my hubby fell a couple of weeks ago and has a concussion and will be out of work for awhile , thankfully it wasn't very serious, bad enough though. Merrill always makes me smile and I love to hear him sing . And yes he is a wonderful man .Thanks for sharing all of the videos. Take care and God bless

  • No matter where I am or how hard life gets I always seem to come back to this wonderful man and his beautiful voice - thanks Merrill for bringing me back.

  • Alan looks great here

  • This is Osmond Heaven!

  • Oh I totally agree 'myceltic' and Merrill's the angel - oh okay all of them are.

  • The Osmonds really are a great gift to the world... especially the women of the world!

    I sure hope they really are entertaining in heaven... I think I would see them more then than on this earth when its only once every few years!

    LOL :) Another Osmaniac! I want to hear at least one of their songs EVERY freakin' day!

  • Merrill's voice gives me shiverssssss

  • It's like a gentle caress - yummmm

  • I agree Merrill has a dreamy voice. All Donny has to do still is smile or sing, and I melt.

  • The extreme best. No one has ever or will ever match their talent. Even if you do not like their type of music they are by far the very best.

  • I love this song; i love their moves.

  • when they grab their mics and say "I'm still gonna need you" it is the hottest thing. i wish i was their mics!!! really i do. especially Donny's. i also like Alan and Merrill but Donny is the best!

  • the Osmonds are the very best. I will always need them!!!

  • another beautiful song.........

  • Oh my Merrill at 0:56 just makes my heart melt.

  • Love this.

  • This song I on Radio 2 the other day ( 11th Oct 2009 ) for the 1st time... The 11th Oct was the 1st Anniversary of the separation of my wife and I... Love you millions Carol. What an appropiate song.

  • We're still going to need you. A life with The Osmonds is a full life with love and music. Thanks for the love.

  • 2catangle...you are so right, it was a total love fest at the concerts and hotels. None of the drugs,drinking that people who were into the rock groups did. We were good,clean teens so in love with our favorite Osmond.

  • I love watching The Osmonds videos, these bring back so many great memories for me. Listening to their albums for hours on end, couldn't wait for the next issue of Tiger Beat or 16 for new pictures to put on my bedroom walls. Their concerts were the awesome. My best friend and I were able to meet the entire family before one of their concerts and even in the few minutes we were with them it was evident they were a very close and loving family just as they are today.

  • This was always ALWAYS my favorite song on "The Proud One" album and one of my favorite Osmond songs period. Would have been great to be included on some of their Best Of releases.

  • Merrill's voice is outstanding. I was in love with his voice long before I knew it was him. I was only nine back then. His gospel music is so spirit filled. "The Anchor Holds" speaks for itself if you haven't heard it.

  • Por siempre The Osmonds !

  • I really don't understand why so-called Jackson fans are coming onto Osmond videos and trashing the Osmonds. Good you love the Jacksons. Please go to their videos and leave the Osmonds to those of us who love them.

    Seriously, 35 years later and you're still carrying this around? Let it go!

  • @PoxyBear no one copied anyone...it was two very talented families just uh doin' their thing...plain and simple......all very gifted artists......

  • @jekiwe Reading comprehension is a skill. I never said anything about copying. Once again, I'm wondering after what is now 37 years later why do Jackson fans come to an Osmonds video page trashing them. Of course they're both two talented families but that is NOT what I said initially.

  • I never get tired of watching this one.... or any of them for that matter!

  • just becasue the jacksons are in the rock n roll hall of fame doesn't mean they are more talented. at the first people's choice award for best pop group, the j5 and the Osmonds were up for the award and the Osmonds won. they were both talented and in different ways.

  • Love the clothes,moves and Harmonies

  • I always loved song. It really was one of the first "boy band" ballads from anyone. It's pretty to hear, catchy and sung so well. Love those liesure suits lol

  • That was just beautiful! They are STILL the greatest!

  • The Osmonds and The Jacksons, We are so privaleged to have lived our teens through such fabulous music and gifted singers

  • I'm aware that the Jackson's are more popular as far as awards and that kind of stuff goes, but I really don't care. I love both family's music and at this point am just sad that MJ is gone. I have watched everything that has been televised about him and it has made me so sad. I know a lot of people will miss him as will I, and especially his lil ones.

    Sincerely,

    Jo-Anne

  • Well said! both families made great music and we don't need to compare them to know that! (:

  • I didn't mean to sound unkind and apologize if I came across that way. I don't believe one needs to be compared to the other. I'm not sure why I even attempted. They are both very talented families, and the irony is that Donny & Michael were very close. I love the Jackson's music, and I love the Osmonds for different reasons.

    Part 1 of 2

  • The Osmonds are sooooooooooo much better than the Jacksons. It's horrible that MJ died. It's awful when anyone does. But as far as talent and family values (I mean the good kind the Religious Right kind.) Their music is still so inspiring after all these years. (More to follow)

  • Osmonds have more talent in just one of their fingers than the Jackson's have in all of their fingers combines. Love these guys. Great voices.

  • Absoutely beautiful....I love these guys and have for a long long time. I keep coming back playing this one over and over....SIGH

  • cant get enough of this song!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Oh gosh I would do the cohoregraphy to this song all the time. love it.

  • love this song! love the osmonds

  • these were the good old days of music.

  • From Anna,

    Hi RyanDavies Taylor, Had you heard that the Osmond 50th UK Tour will be on a 2 DVD set in August? It will be available at the Osmond Store only from what I read. The cost will be $50.00 in the USA.

    Your friend,

    Anna

  • I was 7 at the time I first saw this clip, and couldn't find the footage--until now. I only saw it once as a child, and even though over 30 has passed, and I still remember those harmonies and moves.

  • Groups now days only wish they had the class!

  • Thanks for posting this, I always loved this song. I like the Osmonds but was never a huge fan. I have to agree with DonnyDigger, he seems to be the one I end up staring at. He has a very subtle and sexy way of moving. Gotta say, Jay isn't the best dancer, IMO. He looks like he's over dramatizing and trying too hard. Merrill sometimes, too. Merrill is definitely the man with the voice, though.

  • My friends and I would raise money for the Omsond Foundation and every year got to go backstage in Allentown to give it to the family.1 time, theyonly allowed me back and Mr. O saw I was upset he called Donny over to talk to me to distract me.We talked,but then I shocked both of them by politely saying it wasn't fair and I was leaving,and I walked out the gate.luckily things got straightened out and all 4 of us were all able to come backstage that night can't believe I did that, but it worked.

  • Yes I agree that Jay is the best dancer of all the Osmonds

  • I'm so in love with Donny but have you ever noticed what a good dancer Jay is? He always seems to have a little more bounce and electricity in his steps than his brothers.

  • Jay is a talented choreographer and well known for his dancing. Donny was very unhappy at this time and had had enough - it's in his autobiography.

  • he was the best dancer of the osmond, and he was the responsibile of the dance part

  • shoot, i forgot to say I wanted the 70's version of the proud one. thanks.

  • i've seen all the posts of the "proud one," but still haven't seen the full video version--- its got to be out there somewhere. anyone-- please post it??? (and let me know. of course, I love this one too. thanks.

  • I just found out the osmonds were on the you tube and am very happy!! I've always had a soft spot for Donny but Merrill has always made me weak in the legs!

  • Donny and Merrill are cute but check out the guy on the left, ALAN! He is gorgeous!

  • Here's my Boys COMPLETE....!!! I KNOW Merrills voice is SUPERB , but I got distracted by the 17yr old standing beside him......sorry LOL

    Thanks Merrillyn

    Gailxxx

  • Oh sorry Gail did you say there was someone standing next to my Merrill I hadn't noticed

    I only have eyes and ears for Merrilllllllll.

    Merrillyn (mwah)

  • YES white suit - The Bestest Looking one of the bunch....

    xxx

  • Oh sorry Gail, nah didn't notice him will have to watch the video again and again and again will try to concentrate better on the others and drag my gaze from Merrill's beautiful face but it's gonna be hard.

    May be if I close my eyes I might be able to picture the others, nah now I can only hear Merrill's beautiful grizzly voice (my ears are smiling).

    Ah yes I am so totally MERRILLIZED.

    Merrillyn (mwah)

  • Tell you what Merrillyn - YOU can have the Guy in the middle I'll stand next to YOU....

    Fair enough?

    LOL

    Gailxxx

  • Ok so I took a little peak at the Don and yes he is pretty yummy but I'm sticking with the man in the middle he's my babe.

    So one for you and one for me - just right.

    Merrillyn (mwah)

  • I took at 'little peek' in 1972....and kept on looking! So glad the Man has held my gaze for so long....

    All the time the Donster is standing there you can do what you want with YOUR Merrill,

    LOL LOL

    Gailxxx

  • Oh Gail, can't you see Merrill's sexiness outshines them all???? Donny is cute, I do agree, but in a boyish way, at least to me. Merrill has that something extra sexy about him. You don't think so?

  • Merrill has "something" I can see NOW! But then I was only 14 looking at a very Cute Boy.......and now I am 49 looking at an extremely Handsome Man. Sorry but its Donny for me........ hee hee xxx

  • This is a lovely clip, and all of them look and sound good, but it is Donny that catches my eye every time!

  • I'm so glad! Ain't it great we all have different tastes; I don't think I would want all the women wanting Merrill! I like Donny's personality and he does have the best body too! But despite that, it's Merrill for me!

  • Thats probably what made The Osmonds such an impact - a brother for everyone!

    For me its was ALWAYS Donnys eyes and His hair! That gorgeous way He has of smiling while His eyes convey a shyness! But NO-ONE can deny Merrills voice! xxx

  • OH I too thought Merrill was by himself here in this video; I seem to see some shadowy figures around him . . .

  • Haha I'm with you Karen, I know they are there but I just can't quite drag my eyes away from Merrill to look at the others,

    4EVA MERRILLIZED

    Merrillyn (mwah)

  • You are the best with all your clever Merrill descriptions! It's endless how you come up with them! Merrillicious, Merrillized, etc., etc. I know, there just aren't enough words in the whole world to describe our wonderful, awesome, Merrill!!!! Look in the dictionary under "Perfection" and you will see his picture, along with see also: Sexy, charismatic, talented, angelic!

  • Thanks Karen but Merrillicious is yours not mine, I just love it g/f cause Merrill really is sooooo delicious. Does this mean I've plagiarized it cause I wrote it on another video - oops. Between you and me g/f we will have to come up with a few more lol.

    But you are right though there are just not enough words in any language to describe how wonderful and beautiful Merrill Osmond truly is.

    Merrillyn (mwah)

  • You Know MY answer to that one, Merrillyn

    Been Donny-Distracted for far too long to concentrate on anyone else!

    xxx

  • Have mercy!!! Jay is stunning in this vid, coupled with Merrill's gorgeous voice and the guy's moves, I done died and gone to Osmond Heaven!

  • THAT WAS SUPERB!  THANKS!

  • great video

  • Classic - thanks Lyn and Amanda!

  • thank you Lyn!

    ooh Donny looked right into the camera at 1:23! haha i watch over and over just to see that! he's just one year older than me here! =) and Merrill's voice is so smooth! like velvet! =)

  • Thanks so much for sharing this

  • When they grab that microphone all together.....sigh!  Great moves boys!

  • This is my favourite song of theirs, first heard it when I was 4 and I still love it 12 years later! Thanks for posting!

  • recorded 13 years before I was even born and i absoloutely love it!

  • Another of my favourite Osmonds records

  • Lyn. Have you heard the 1975 recording of Love Me For A Reason (from the tour same year) where Merrill lets his voice soar through the instrumental? Just Glorious!! Tried to put it on YouTube, couldn't work out how to do it. Sorry. Its my fav. version of the song. Had a mate relay it on to cd from my LP. I'll try again to get it on.

  • Sorry that sounded a bit scary-stalker-lady didn't it? Im not really, was meant tongue in cheek. I know I can lose my logic when it comes to Donny but Im not that crazy - honest.

  • 'glcfordco' believe I know exactly how you feel I'm like that with Merrill the things that go through my mind about him are so bizarre sometimes - such a fantasy LOL.

  • Well thoughts like those beats thinking about next weeks washing & ironing.....

    Um, Donny or the ironing - NO CONTEST !!! I know which one I'd rather be doing....

  • Well thats a nicer reason than "hey you lot look at these guys and YOU can't have any of them" ha ha ha . Beginning to think God has a really evil sense of humour.........

    Gail

  • cheeky but so true - I'd love a certain Osmond for my very own aaaahhh just have to keep dreaming on lol.

    Lyn

  • Tell ya what if we kidnapped Merrill & Donny do ya reckon n-e-1 would notice? ha ha ha

    Meet ya in Utah.....race ya there.....

  • I'm on the next plane outta here - see ya there.

  • Just noticed you are in Australia. I live in the UK (kent). Isn't it good to know The Osmonds are still bringing the world closer..

    Think they'd feel quite chuffed at that - don't you?

  • Agreed 'lcfordco' I think God gave us the Osmonds to bring everybody around the world together in peace and harmony.

    Lyn (mwah)

  • Said B4 will say it again : Merrills voice drags you in - Donnys eyes keep you there....

    Thanks, great tune (also my fav.). Recently bought this album on cd. Again Im listening to it over & over....

  • For me Merrill's gentle grizzly voice, bedroom eyes, sexy smile and delish body draws me in I don't even notice the others oops LOL - I know I'm such a sad sack but I've been Merrillized can't help it.

    Lyn (Sydney, Australia)

  • All of the songs from this album sound beautiful.

  • I remember playing this album over and over until it wore out! Rest assured Merrill, NO woman in her right mind could ever walk away from you!

  • have not heard this song in about 30 years ! still outstanding

  • The Osmonds are the best now and always will be! They have given so many people so many memories. Absolutely the best!

  • I think this is my fav Os song - the close harmonies are endlessly interesting - even after more than 30 years of hearing it, I always find the complications of it rewarding. The album sleeve, with them sitting around the jukebox - Oh, they all look so very handsome. Esp Merrill, of course!

  • Yes 'esther' I think this is my favourite Osmond song too - its the harmonies that do it - it drags you back to listen over and over again. And of course Merrill is such sexalicious 'eye candy' I can watch his expressive face for hours - excellent stuff.

    Lyn (mwah)

  • & I forgot to say I went to see the 50th anniversary tour in may :D
