Seals and Crofts Hummingbird

[auntjojo1980]

always loved this song, brings me back to a time and place...good times in the 70's =))

[25411959]

Wonderful, heartfelt song!

[restydpogi]

My Tito Homer Gravador-Odchigue of Digos City, Phil used to sing this song on our family gatherings...

[fsmtdaler]

 This song should be the National Anthem! Maybe give the eagle a rest... ;-)

[rossinibkk]

They were really great duos! Great songs! Great talents! Meaningful! Thank you from Bangkok!

Mi colibrí Desirée <3

[TitoShamash]

Best duo since Hall and Oates

[lrgabriel1]

Hey, I didn't realize that Dan of Seals and Crofts is the same as the "England Dan" who joined with John Ford Coley. Makes total sense, though! I listened to S&C when I was in high school and haven't listened to them in decades. What a treat - thanks for sharing!

[619SuperLito]

Nice indeed !

[eudaenomic]

there is only one song from this concert I enjoyed more than this and it was "the boy down the road". I think it was their 3rd song in the concert but I heard it and that was it for me. This was the only other song I heard that night in Austin, TX.

My dear Friend Carol has flown away from me ... and I'm so afraid she'll never return.:-(

[VINGgirl1]

Just really discovered this song recently. I love this one. How did I miss it. Thank you for posting this!

[rossinibkk]

A favourite song of my little four and a half year old who is flying up there in peace. Till papa fly with you to this song again......

[88oceangirl]

love this song....brings me back to all those memories.....good and not so good......thanks for posting....

[karljameson98]

I can live with this genre..... today's musics are useless

[LOGIC42369]

good hip hop brought me here! great upload!

[andilove100]

This was one of my favorites from this album. My mom used to play it all the time. All us kids would dance around in the livingroom to this. This music always reminds me of being a kid in the 70's. Thanks for sharing.

[kazeet456]

This is absolutely horrible, yikes!

lol....clicking one link to the next produces some hilarious results.

[jalguitarman]

I have loved this song since I was a kid. This is just good music. I am actually more of techno and modern jazz guy but this is wonderfull music regardless of time period or genre.

[sjlarcadia]

hopefully my bro and I will have this ready by Bahallah's birthday. :)

[kathykay2010]

I love the message in this song...and I love Hummingbirds...even

held one in my hand once! It was trapped on my screened in porch

and I was afraid it would hurt itself so I cupped it in my hand...it went

still...I thought I had killed it...so I said a little prayer as I stepped out

side praying it would OK. I slowly opened my hands and it was still...

then in an instant it burst to life and flew away! I was one HAPPY

CAMPER!!! Thank you for this great song and the great memory!

[jalguitarman]

@kathykay2010  That is truly beautifull!!!

[kathykay2010]

@jalguitarman THANK YOU...AND I'M GLAD TO BRIGHTEN YOUR DAY

WITH A HAPPY THOUGHT...IT STILL WARMS MY HEART TO THINK

ABOUT THAT LITTLE HUMMINGBIRD...! I'LL NEVER FORGET IT!

ALL THE BEST TO YOU...! (:-)

[lwolfclaw]

This and Carol King got me through high school

[cjdragonqueen]

Remember being able to work the old cabinet stereo and playing all my mother's albums and this one being one of my favorites! I will always miss those dreamy afternoons.

[travlynn08]

Meticulous. Syncopated.Harmonious.

[alamo889]

It`s amazing how a 4 minute song can transport you back 35 years.

[MoosicandCritters]

@alamo889 Agreed!

[gregmb1960]

@alamo889 Ain't it the truth? Always did love their music.

[MrTimOliver]

Brings back a flood of memories, all good. My grand daughter now 7 refures to this as" the most beautiful song ever pap paw". Thanks for posting it Tim.

[rossinibkk]

Great composition, great meaning, great tune, great insturments....these guys got true talents...all from their soul. Thanks for posting!

[Appleholic1]

The best part of this song is 2:01 to 2:48

[LOGIC42369]

[zismoura]

@Appleholic1 3:20 to 4:42.  Soaring. :)>+

[tropicalpancake56]

Simply beautiful....

[gibsg62]

An excellent Song from an excellent album...!

[genegenie29]

this song is as beautiful as the hummingbird itself!!! Also I agree with the post. Major lack of real talent in the music industry

[DLP195788300]

they were cruisin right along til the anti-abortion song

[Mom22Multi]

@DLP195788300

Huh??? What song did they do that was an anti abortion song? ... And 'anti abortion' is best understood as PRO LIFE!!

[Hewachee1]

Good memories, really good....

[wolf8793]

Man, I am back in 1975 at college! Final Paper is due, gotta get ready for work, and I dotta study for test~~

Thank you.

[steelyd330]

It was this past Saturday, and I was up in the villiage of Lake George in the shops. I heard this song playing, and I thought it was some modern local band. I couldn't beleive how entranced i was by the melodies, and had to find out if he was selling the CD. I laughed when I learned it was Seals and Crofts!!

[MerxXxiILe]

I'm addicted to this song T_T i heard it today in my boyfriend's car.. can't get it outta my headdddd

[drmpeacesage]

I had the hummingbird, but she flew away, being the diamond girt that she was. One whole album which could set me off ........raah.

[zowlik]

Greatest ending to a song ever!

[MaceMn]

Loved this tune since it first came out in '72 and I still do. Better days those.

[KaraMurphee]

Boswell - you have great taste in music!

[boswell69]

@KaraMurphee THANK YOU VERY MUCH. GLAD YOU ENJOYED.

[GuyinCa]

@KaraMurphee I agree with you, youtube needs more great classics like this.

[jtswhip]

I LOVE THIS SONG! Thanks for sharing!



[sergiomats]

I once woke up crying after spending the night dreaming about a damsel and thiking about this song. I don't think I will ever forget it.

[DaveWollenberg]

JIm and Dash hit #20 in Billboard, 3-31-73. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx!

[borecleaner1]

@DaveWollenberg One of my favorites by Seals and Crofts.I was a sophomore in high school when this came out.....amazing how listening to music can melt away the years and you are back to a simpler time,,,,,,,,

[ivorystroker]

I remember playing this 45 on my "mickey mouse" record player when I was about 11 in the mid 70's . It kinda of hauntingly beautiful now that I realize those were beautiful memories of carefree days when music was still intelligently written...

[SasyTequila]

AUSTIN,TX, SUMMER-1983,,,,Listening to this song, riding in Mark' blue van. He liked the song. I liked the other part, where the melody changes. Oh, and Mark, Dude, I was nieve. You used me. Sorry about how it all ended. I didn't know. Poetic justice I guess. Never,,Ever,, meant to hurt you.

[AlliiPaige]

I remember listening to this with my dad when I was little. He got a tattoo with my name and a hummingbird because I listened to it all the time. Today I said why don't you just get it removed its not like any of us remember that song. And he said I'll find it in 2 seconds. He did. This song reminds me of so much<3

[makingsense53]

This song comes as close to perfcetion as you can possibly get. The lyrics, the music and voices all blend together so beautifully. What a masterpiece. Peace.

[atele6]

The symbol of eternal youth, the Hummingbird !! What a great inspiration into the devine. Whereever u are Seals and Crofts, God Bless, and long life.

[hounddig]

Seems like there was a mellow singer/ songwriter genre that helped heal a socially & spiritually ravaged US - Seals & Crofts, James Taylor, Carol King, Jim Croce,Neil Young....

[projectspanish4]

born 1994 but still live it all<3

[barbj7121]

one of my fav thank you!! :)

[jimbobubbadj]

Thumbs up! I wish that I could go back in time!

[ilovekansas]

Remember seeing these guys perform at Allen Fieldhouse in Lawrence, Kansas in 1975. Really good>>>>>>>>>

[antzzy1]

Very beautiful song...beautiful lyrics...wonderful instrumentation....true talent...something that is lacking in todays music.

[tokaicarl]

@antzzy1 too right

[peacefulbliss1]

@antzzy1 Well said!

[elvispresley718]

@antzzy1 yer right about that one

[chuckbuckbobuck]

I work by a large window over looking a garden with many, many Birds of Paradise plants which hummingbirds love. Today while I was watching them suck the nectar out of these plants I started to hum this song. Had to hear tonight after today's events.

[Karenfan09]

PURE CLASSIC !!!!! I'm afraid we will never hear music like this ever again.....SO SAD !!!!

[boswell69]

@KyrieEleison46 You are quite welcome.

[THESILKSTER2000]

Thank you for not letting this song flyaway flyaway! APB

[MoosicandCritters]

This song is right there beside "Good Time Charlie" bringing back memories of a wonderful time in my childhood!! Thanks Bos! This is a classic!

[boswell69]

@MoosicandCritters you're welcome.

[tropicalpancake56]
