Hah, love how there's segregation going on in the background..

Love is all inclusive.

Irony. -_-'

I remember when I was younger and woke up in the middle of the night crying because I had a nightmare, my mum would be in my room in an instant! She woud pick me up and cradel me in her arms and she would sing this song to me over and over until I would fall asleep! She is a wonderful mum and I love her so, so much! I always will! :)

[Underdog123]

sang this song on bobby's death june 5th, 1968 when carol bob ted and alice was filming then you will find NATALIE WOOD going to CHICAGO from there to the convention BOBBY KENNEDY should been at, boyfriend at the time JERRY BROWN GOVERNOR OF CALIFORNIA NOW demand he solve her case and deal with whatever mess In OAKLAND THE chaos on 01/28/2012 move in day equals the PIE FIGHT in the great race.

War=people+money divided by desperate need for oil.



[PegasusTXC]

She sang this song when my partner, love of my life was 3 years old and he will be turning 50 in a few day timethis song is still applicable today. Happy birthday baby and I love you

[ScottShuster]

@DJTrafficDnB: Ditto, ditto, ditto - and it's got to be so for so many millions of people. Song needs a higher profile...more people should hear it today and on on on into the future...

[DJTrafficDnB]

Absolutely stunning, gives me chills every time.

[wieczny0zaciesz]

AUSTIN POWERS!

Very underrated songwriter with a great set of pipes. Thanks for posting this one.

vicki anderson IS MUUUUUUUUUUCH BETTER THAN THIS BULL

@Anorchous and the smell of dog shit is better than the stench that comes out of your mouth when you talk.....numpty

[Anorchous]

@oddjobjujitsu i would slap you back into my vagina if i was your mother.

[oddjobjujitsu]

@Anorchous well i suppose something is better than nothing in you vagina

[wojtas4539]

Łapa w góre, jeśli znałeś ten utwór przed "Listy do M"

[SPECKLES49]

@wojtas4539 What did you say in English ?

[malutka9707]

@patusieku

Racja, on był jeszcze w innym filmie

[piotr690]

wiem że ,,Warto było czekać'' bo dzięki temu zakochałem się w świecie na nowo

[bigretrorod]

The backup group doesn't keep up with lead singer on that arm swing thing! ha

[MrSebakw]

kojarzy sie ona nam z listów do m jednak jak sama nazwa wskazuje "to co świat teraz potrzebuje to miłość" piosenka stworzona w 1965 20 lat po wojnie apeluje o dalszy pokój na swiecie 

[piteras444]

@MrSebakw "Listy do M." mi tylko ten utwór przypomniały, znałem i lubiłem go już od dawna. Swoją drogą wydaje mi się, że chodzi bardziej o wojnę w Wietnamie aniżeli o II Wojnę Światową.

[pebblez415]

no war........ all you need is love

[rosia27]

oj z listów do m.<3

[patusieku]

Szkoda mi ludzi, którzy utożsamiają ten utwór tylko z filmem "Listy do M."...

[boskar7]

@patusieku Przecież to Forrest Gump! Jakie "Listy do M."? A tak w ogóle, to oryginalny teledysk jest tak dobry, że nie musi być utożsamiany z żadnym filmem. Mi się bardziej kojarzy z porą roku, Świętami.

[patusieku]

@boskar7 Kierujesz to do mnie? Chodziło mi o coś, o czym Ty mówisz.. 3/4 komentarzy odnosi się do filmu, inaczej Ci ludzie pewnie nie wiedzieliby, że istnieje taki przyjemny utwór. A to przykre.;P

[lubiedlugospac]

jakie ładne <3



[AdrienTorunski]

jejku... wspaniałe wykonanie, i super jakość:)

[TheDarkNoelle]

Ocho, wszyscy się "Listów do M." naoglądali;p

[gtgale1]

Sweet song. Nice voice. I wish people all over the world would  sing this song and believe it. It would be a nice change from whats going on now in the world. . Maybe they might catch onto what this world really needs. More loving kindness. We can only hope and pray that the world changes for the better. for our children and grandchildren.

@Beatzeppe Yes, quite a few, actually...

[boomerang905]

Oh my God, I loved this song. We still have the 45 in the family. This made us reflect when listening and it was such a sweet, big hit, deserving of it! : )

[LadyIrresolute]

It's love, sweet love. ♥

[kuzwa0217]

zakochałam się w tej piosence ! . Listy Do M ; )

[shiftymcAwesome]

fav part is at 0:20 when she sings "what the world needs now" and someone yells "is Jackie!"

[polishswan]

[sonnspire]

[MsAngieca]

Love this song too!!!!

[Alikah1]

Vocals a damnsight better than the choreography!

[Kalle72]

@Alikah1 Unlike the music of today, which is silly dancing with bad vocals.

[Wetoddid9]

Look at 1:02. The women on the pedestal nearly fell off as it started to move.....

[camerpin]

12 people have never been invited to a shindig

[JohnKelly32102]

Twelve people have no love

[kitkat1101992]

@JohnKelly32102

this made me laugh. :)

[JohnKelly32102]

@kitkat1101992 Thank you

[gdepierro]

Just a nice song, can we leave it at that without all the religious bull crap

[XXxShikasAngelxXX]

The bible doesnt say that. anywhere. So you obviously havent read it to form such a strong opinion. And infact he does tell us to love everyone including our "enimies" And if u really love everyone like you say you do than why from a long list of people would you pull out christianity? Just sayin.

[igotmywingsifly]

Why would jesus say "the first will be last and the last will be first", but you go to hell! Did he say that? No! The bible has been changed by the thought of divinty by a man sitting in the vatican! Fuck the churches, love everyone, love your enemies! Must be love, love, love. What the world needs now is love sweet love. I wanna love you and treat you right- bob marley. FUCK RELIGION, it's the root of all evil! Research annunaki and pleiades! FUCKING LEARN YOU IDIOTS, i love you!

[WilliamLaSalle]

What the world needs now is love.

Jackie did a beautiful job with this song.

I am her fan.

The world needs more beautiful performers like her with such a sweet voice.

The world does not need trolls.

This is a beautiful song.

Jackie is a very talented performer.

Take your hate somewhere else trolls.

We don't need it here.

<3

[myway2904]

Too touching! I love this song so much!

[hippymusicman88]

1:00 hahaha moving floor.. nearly made her fall off mid click!

[amazingaro]

YOU KNOW THIS WAS/IS A BEAUTIFUL SONG, BUT FROM THIS ANGLE, COULD IT BE CONSTRUED AS SUCH BLASPHEMY,TELLING GOD WHAT TO DO,AND HOW MUCH IS IN HIS WORLD, AND THERE HAS ALWAYS BEEN LOVE HERE,ALWAYS, THINK ABOUT IT, BUT THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL TIME AND SONG AND SHE IS A BEAUTIFUL PERSON MIRACULOUS

[BTLfanIam]

@amazingaro Just goes to show how bent you religious types are in your thinking. You think that everything anyone ever says is directed to God, for some reason. Always been love, here? What about all the hatred, racism, and war? Or did you forget? And if God is so loving, he wouldn't allow all the war and hatred to begin with. Or natural disasters, etc.

[22bencov]

@BTLfanIam I don't agree that this song is blasphemy, but she does kinda direct the song towards God as well as the audience when she says, "Lord we don't need ..." I don't claim to understand the world or God because there is no possible way to do so, but my opinion on the matter you raised is, God created people with free will, so it is the choice of people, not God, for there to be war. Also if there is no God, as you are hinting, how do you explain the positive miracles of life.

[BTLfanIam]

@22bencov You're right. I don't believe there is a god, other than what people invent in their minds. I haven't seen any proof of it, anyway. But I'm open to the possibility. What miracles are you talking about? Life? You know, life's not all that great on this planet right now. Doesn't seem like much of a micacle to me.

[servantofdalord09]

@BTLfanIam GOD loves you!!!

[BTLfanIam]

@servantofdalord09 How would you know? Did he walk up to you and say so? Besides, I could care less if he loves me or not.

[DwarfHamsterlove100]

@BTLfanIam Read a bible. If you want to get thrown in a lake of fire, then go on a talk your nonsense. I am a loyal christian and you really need to go to church. God allows all things to happen and everything happens for a reason. If you still argue, well have fun anti-christ person because you can ignore everything I tell you.... well I tried and may the Lord have mercy on you.

[Malafesh]

@amazingaro "BLASPHEMY" is the crime of assuming to oneself the rights or qualities of God. In other words saying that "You ARE god". I think you meant to say this song is "irreverent". It is not, its a prayer to god put to music.

[EagleRockers]

Happy Birthday Jackie! 8/21/2011.

[Yobbie72]

shit dance moves

[hitomusic]

Just love this song. This is one of the greatest hits of all time.

[moneytreehk]

Such a beautiful song and beautiful lady. 

[chillieluvr45]

We sang this at the end of my grandma's memorial service. I was ok until we started singing, then I just lost it and sobbed. The message of this song is so perfect and so true.

[schtuke]

Burt Bacharach and Hal David (and later Carole Bayer Sager) are American treasures; I love them.

[liligirl22]

My Bestfriend Wedding ! Thumbs up if you loved the movie and this song!

[duffmcduffee]

What the world needs now is more backup singers.

[videofanYT00]

Wow, one of the first songs I've heard to use a euphonium.

[hrawet]

@videofanYT00 what's a euphonium?

[videofanYT00]

@hrawet Its a musical instrument, like a baritone horn but different. look it up on google. Look up a few vids. I suggest Steven Mead or David Childs.

[MrBuddy1001]

What a fantastic song!!

[sbhs4ever1]

check out the segregation of the backup singers - classic!

[johnmorris008]

Definitive track of a classic!

Thanks for the mem'ries and the post.

[TheRealJohnnyStrat]

I'm sorry but 1:02 is hilarious. hahaha =)

[chinchowpowpook]

What the world needs now Jimmy page

[stickyundies]

Fabulous. Jimmy Page played guitar on the original record.

[raimagene]

damn even in 2011 it sounds great

[nugeebear]

Great Song. Love it since i was a kid

[DJLadyLike]

I got this betting with my girlfriend about who have made the original of this track and when it first was releast. Please help me with this one

[Heavenstomergatroid]

@DJLadyLike It was JACKIE DeSHANNON of course, released on April 15, 1965

[DJLadyLike]

@Heavenstomergatroid Thank you very much. If means that I'm winning the bet:)

[charliesitzes1973]

I Love this song and it is a true classic oldie i never get tired of hearing,thank you so much for posting it

[dergrosseomg]

[Shepardswatch]

hubba hubba  double bubba

[txsailor82]

[z731a]

Exactly that's what the world needs now as always! And not just for some but for everyone.

[josh21qaz]

[johnmorris008]

[erichae92]

super padreee_!!! me gustaaa!!

[deltanz]

I know it's mean, but I love 1:00, when one of the women in the background almost falls and gets the choreography all wrong, hahahahaha!

[blackandtanful]

1965年､ｼﾞｬｯｷｰ･ﾃﾞｼｬﾉﾝ､古き良きアメリカの映­像"世界は愛を求めてる"～勿論ﾊﾞｶﾗｯｸ

[forester218]

Part of the fascination with this song (and many from this period of time) is that being in your late teens or early 20s in the 60s means that hearing these songs again draws you emotionally back into that time, the war, your coming of age, the swirl of change after the 50s, a sense of something great but unknown stirring.... I hear the words and music and fall into a reverie that is unique and hardly describable. What a time it was.

[jclarke713]

@forester218 ~ my sentiment exactly ~ what a time it was , a feeling that will never be felt again ~ I feel I never left ~

[malecanalle]

HAN PASADO LOS AÑOS Y ESTA SIGUE SIENDO UNA CANCION PRECIOSA,MARAVILLOSAMENTE INTERPRETADA POR JACKIE.

[Memale2009]

Je sais: ce titre n'est pas vraiment grand chose- la vidéo non plus. Et tout de même: j'aime ce tube parce qu'il fait partie de ma jeunesse et parce qu'il suscite tant de souvenirs!

[franticamber]

simply timeless both musically and lyrically. great live performance by Jackie.

[jclarke713]

~ I need to get my time machine out ~ there just is not any music like this anymore ~ I miss those wonderful years ~

[TPKKPT]

@jclarke713 arent you listening to it right now :S ?

so why a time machine ?

[jclarke713]

@TPKKPT ~ being there in that time was so unbelievable ~ that was my youth and I rejoice in my youth ~

[jbowden66]

If you think this music is dead, you need to wake up!

[MCatherineLunsford]

Exactly the premis upon which Hide A Heart is based. I love this recording by Jackie...it stands the test of time.

MCatherine

[rareone2369]

One of the greatest songs ever!

[krokodil191]

best for english waltz! 

[jeff65623]

they don't look like her anymore, either, trioptimum79

[TheNewYorksweetheart]

Jackieeeee<3

[flukyluke]

fortunately, music is forever, not just while we're teens.

[BinD3rD4nDat]

10 people prefer to listen in Gaga's song nyeheheheheh!

[mrkwonsony]

Was that really her birth-given-name? Jackie for a lady ???? well, obviously no tackles on her music; it's fanbuloustastic but I'm asking cause I'm so young to that generations.

[Billtron220]

@mrkwonsony

Jackie is a pretty common abbreviation of Jaclyn.

[mattyg2k6]

10 people need a hug...

[TRUEXFINITY]

@mattyg2k6 lol



[AGibsonJ]

She certainly deserves to be the subject of Jimmy Page's song, "Tangerine" !!!

[nickcre]

These hand movements were copyrighted soon after

[kywx01]

Pas la plus belles des versions, mais c'est du Burt, alors c'est cool. ;)

[btpuppy]

This song always gets me - Bacharach and David are geniuses, period. Check out Tom Jones doing this song with Burt at the piano on the Tom Jones Live TV show DVD - amazing!

[reneman01]

I love it...

[misiaczekjasia26]

cudowna piosenka!!

[Latz51]

Burt Bachrach and Hal David

[vinyl12s]

@Latz51 Yes it is. The duo resposible for Dionne Warwick's 60's success!!

[MrBrnicky]

What I love most about these old songs is that they are singed live. No playback.

[Mindermaniac]

@MrBrnicky they are "sung" live - singed is not a word...agree with you

[InspiredMuse74]

This is the cure for the world is love! At least people can live and enjoy life. Homelessness and poverty would not exist. People would not kill each other. I just can't accept my society how it is now. I never could even when I was a kid.

[arus1958]

the message is so true.I cried when i got high to this song

[longpoursinscrire]

<3



[JoyceSticker]

GOOISCHE VROUWEN! (LL)

[fal2grace]

I love this song.:)

[AnnG0my]

i love this song. i cannot believe how awesome it is to have footage from this far back. it makes me wish humans were always capable of videography.
