  • So beautiful,it is very very special to me and my Fiance.

  • love paul gross and love this song by sarah. jeezz its so great

    FRIKIN PROUD CANADIAN RIGHT HERE. ♥♥

  • My wife and I like this song a lot; however, the producer had accidentally used the Vietnam Communist Party flag - red flag with yellow star in the video (see 3:06). This is a very BIG mistake. The Boat People were from South Vietnam and represented by the YELLOW with 3 RED STRIPES flag. They risked their life to escape from the Communist Regime. Many thanks to Paul Gross for writing this song, and God bless the boat people.

  • when i first heard this song i cryd 4 a long time so ill giv that a big helpin of....... 5*x2

  • I've just watched the movie, one of the best I've ever seen. It really shows the futility of war.

  • Paul Gross and Sarah Slean are both Canadian.

  • It took a "Yankee's" heart to be touched by my people's misery to write this wonderful song

    It took another "Yankee's" voice to show the love, the compassion to the wretched people that are mine.

    I LOVE MY YANKEES!!!

    Thank you!!!

    Why did I take so long to discover this jewel?

  • Canadian:)

  • Très Très belle chanson d'amour... !!!

    J'ai une pensée très particulière pour tous ceux qui sont morts au combat...!!!

    Malheureusement, il n'a pas respecté ... LA RÈGLE...mais bon... NE MEURE PAS...!!!

    Je suis si triste parce que je connais un merveilleux homme qui est parti à la guerre!!!

    Que Dieu te protège mon amour...!!!

    Et n'oublie pas la règle : NE MEURE PAS...!!!

    mais Reviens-moi...!!! Je t'aime tant...!!!

  • thank you for the video, the poem, about the part of our lives that we'll never forget!

  • wow ! These images and lyrics really brought tears to my eyes. I love your info. My dad was once sent to one of those re-education camps and he had a"wonderful" time in his life there with only music, singing and listening many meaningful love and antiwar songs just like this with his fellows ! Thanks for this vid and your great love for Vietnam ! I'm so glad to know it from a non-Vietnamese !

  • Your poem in the "more info" section is very moving - thanks for sharing this granako

    "we are the foam

    floating on the vast ocean

    we are the dust

    wandering in endless space

    our cries are lost

    in the howling wind "

  • "We pray for Mankind to be present today!

    We pray for Land to stretch its arms to us!

    We pray that Hope be given us

    TODAY, from any Land! "

  • It is difficult to watch .....

    What have we done to allow this to happen?....

    Impressive and dramatic images..

    It brought tears to my eyes..

    Thanks for sharing

  • I've never seen such a moving depiction of the ordeal and extremes that the 'Boat People' faced in their attempts to escape from the war!!! I was saddened to read the statistics of their treatment in the Thai camps...something, I was not aware of...As always, you have given me something to think about! 5*

  • Very powerful, touching. and sad. Well done.
