"This kind of certainly only comes once in a lifetime." The sensitivity you bring to your video is magical....

  • @123outlay Hello BJ, Thank you for your wonderful comments, it is a great song!

    Skerv :-)

  • This is one of the saddest movies I have ever seen and it breaks my heart time and again. You have put a beautiful song to an amazingly beautiful movie and you have captured the emotions of both perfectly. I am off to watch it again, Pass the kleenex please sniff

    Thank you so much for uploading

  • @dily44 Hi, thank you for your heartfelt comments! It is one of my all time favorite movies and Neil does an awesong job of putting all his emotions into the song. This is actually a video my cousin let me put on my channel and I'll be sure to pass this on to him.

    Skerv

  • Bittersweet. Who of us has never been and felt this. Neil puts it

    into perspective, and this old man's tears flow uncontrollably.

    High on my 10 favorite movies. Who couldn't love it!

  • @999ploop

    i hope you find solace in this...we are all here for a reason...dont ache too much..

  • @999ploop Hello, I still have tears when I watch this movie and it rips me apart when he is standing in the rain looking at her and they exchange kind of a small smile. Thank you for your wonderful comments!

    Skerv

  • @skervydawg

    I do as well this is one of those special kind of movies that is like no other i have ever seen before and i get very emotional when i watch it time after time.

  • Hi Scott, this is one of the all time romantic movies to date and has special meaning in a true romantics heart... mine included!!

    Skerv

  • thahks for this song

  • @Sallylaprof Hi, thank youfor the wonderful comment!

    Skerv

  • great job whoever put this together----as for the story, it is still the same-----it is better to have loved and lost than never loved at all----this story is me---and my hopeless loves-----great job!

  • @fannybrice49 Hello Fanny, thank you for your wonderful heartfelt comments. It was my cousin dahoser44 (Floyd) who made this and was kind enough to let me put it on my channel, he makes awesome videos. I'll be sure he gets this. Have a great week and I'm so sorry it has taken so long to reply... I had internet problems.

    Skerv

  • Even though it is Floyd's very first video , but It bring me tears as his other videos . We all have our own story . Sometimes we have to close the chapter no matter what . Sometimes the chapter long soemtimes it is short , someimes it seems like never ending , bit they all fill with human emotion . I love the ending of the video , It seems so real and heartbroken but beautiful .. Thank you Floyd for sharing . Thank you for posting it

    Yiling

  • Hello Yiling,

    I can't say enough about how much I thank Floyd for letting me put his video on my channel. The credit is his and I feel bad now that he didn't put it on his own because he did do a wonderful job with this and the ending is very emotional. You're so right about the chapters of relationships, they can be bitter sweet but we never forget those that we love no matter how short or long and this movie really shows that. Thank you again, I'll make sure Floyd gets this!

    Robert

  • Love Neil Diamond, good choice.

  • To Alson, With Love.....

  • Hello lisacaruthers,

    I sure hope Alson reads this Lisa!

    Skerv

  • Our love was very similar to the events of this movie and this was a song that I played for him over and over. Even had it enscribed on a black glass monument thing for a gift for him once. He was my one love. How ironic that you have combined this movie and this song. Thank you for bringing back such sweet memories (the memories never actually leave, but I thank you for your taste... which has brought me a lovely thought, today...)

  • @lisacaruthers aww, Lisa. I am with you.

    Skerv

  • Your video is fantastic - it truly tells the picture of one of the most beautiful love stories.

  • Hello Paula,

    Thank you so much for your wonderful words and comments,

    Skerv

  • it got me into thinking..what if???? what have i done????its hard to look back in the past ,knowing you can no longer bring it back...regrets...is the story of my life...

  • Hello Mayim,

    I think this movie and song can get so many of us thinking and we all have some regrets but we have to move forward and keep it in our hearts! Thank you for you comments!!

    Skerv

  • As Vincent says to Catherine in “Happy life”:

    Let the memory of what we are, of what we shared, remind you that love, in its deepest and purest form exists..

    So, Francesca found the true love but too late and she must renounce for her family. An enormous sacrifice. Besides, her consideration if only she told it: Nobody should understand the beauty of the thing.

    An excellent story, the true love that happens just once in the lifetime.

  • Hello utente200969

    Thank you for your awesome kind words and comments, they are so very much appreciated!! Ilove what you put what Vincent said to Catherine!!

    Skerv

  • From the 1995 movie The Bridges of Madison County.....the movie and the song that goes with it makes me feel sad..........nostalgic.

  • Hello Nancy,

    Thank you for your much appreciated comments and kind words!

    Skerv

  • @skervydawg Hope you can also post this same video but with the theme It's Almost Like a Song (by Ronnie Milsap). It is one of the soundtracks in this movie. Thanks so much ( :

  • Hello Nancy,

    The time frame of the song would have to be the same without having to cut or add pictures!!

    Skerv

  • Hi! I love how beautifully your captured their love affair with Neil singing! I love the movie and I love Neil. ?: I know his book is entitled "4 Days" so that means they only spent "3" nights together. And, if so, do you think that lst night included the day they actually met one another but didn't share a night together? anyone ??? Wow...you ended the video perfectly!  Thx! Bravo skervydawg!!

  • Hello pjbrezie

    Thank you your awesome compliments leave me speechless!! Thank you so much for all your wonderfulkind words and comments!! You gave me somethings to think about and now I'll have to watch again to answer your questions! Again, thank you so very much!

    Skerv

  • @pjbrezie .... Ditto!!!!!!

  • Oh ...I'm in love with the song....very beautiful lyrics.

  • Hello Cheryl,

    Thank you for your wonderful comments,

    Skerv

  • amazing movie.

  • Hello tinklebelleable

    Thank you for your words and comment!

    Skerv

  • Bittersweet. It is odd how there are times in life when pain and joy combine into something more powerful and moving then either alone could have been.

    Loved your video, loved that movie, and love Neil Diamond singing the song.

    Thank you for posting it for our pleasure!

  • Hello jbrandiwine

    Thank you for your awesome warm words and comments! It is bittersweet, I fully understand what you saying with them combined, it's a feeling in your heart like no other! Your comments are very much appreciated!

    Skerv

  • @skervydawg

    Just want to take a moment to say that it is so considerate of you to respond to nearly every comment. There are few who extend such thoughtfullness and consideration. THANKING YOU, for the kindness, as well as the sharing. ~JB

  • Hello JB,

    Thank you for the compliments, I figure you took the time to watch and then comment that you have a reply coming in return! Thank you for your awesome kind word, they are much appreciated!!

    Skerv

  • But makes me sad too..

  • summertimz, it does make you sad!!!

  • I just watched this movie again the other day and it still hit a nerve with me.I can relate to it in the sene that we sometimes wonder what if,and then we come back to reality.Makes me reminesce back to past relationships,and of course I love Neil Diamond-Thanks skervydawg it brightened my day.!

  • Hello vrp52,

    Thank you for your heartfelt comments! It does make us wonder and even more so if we never see the person we had these feelings for, it can make your heart ache and that love sinks into it even deeper and we'll hold them close forever!

    Skerv

  • @vrp52 They say that "what if " is probably the most horrible thing we can do to ourselves ... It sometimes can just take the fight out you ...

    I love this song - its probably Neil Diamonds most powerful song. Related to this subject - Paul Simon wrote something "..a good day, aint got no pain ... a bad day is when I lie in bed and think of things I might have been "

    Good luck y'all - ups and downs, peaks and troughs - it still can be a beautiful life

  • Hi Nadir,

    Thank you for your insight and excellent comment full of truth! No one would know what would happen had they went together. But I'd like to think it would have been a happy and wonderful end to the story anyway. But then again I never would have fell in love with the most amazing woman I've ever met, Thank you for your heartfelt warm and kind words my friend!

    Skerv.

  • I think this is my favorite movie of all times. Sometimes you have to do whats right, not what feels good, or what you really want to do, we all have sacraficed somethings for our families or significant others, and most people never experience these feeling at all, and just stay with that they know. Because this kind of certainty comes but once in a life time, if your lucky.

  • Hello Summertimz,

    Thank you for your wonderful heartfelt words and comments! Hopefully you're with that one you hold the lifetime of special memories. I can relate to this song and video as many others can!

    Skerv

  • @skervydawg

    Thank you, I think some of us often wonder about that first love that we couldnt be with for one reason of another, but I can relate to this movie, and I will never know..

    Love the song and video.

  • Hello summertimz

    Thank you, I think we all wonder about our first love and those memories will be with us forever! Thank you for your comments and wonderful words!

    Skerv

  • I am not with the my first love, however, after 27 yrs, we found each other again, we are both married, we met one day, he walked up and kissed me,finally after all of these years, now, I have cherish the time we have had in the past 3 months, I love him very much, someday when our families are grown, I hope to spend the rest of my life with him, I want to wake up next to him, grow old together and never spend another day apart. He was my first true love, I love him with all my heart.

  • Hello summertimz

    What a great heartfelt story!! Thank you for such a wonderful comment and kind words! I found my true love 12 years ago, we aren't with each other but we are the best of friends and she will always be the one! Good luck and be happy,

  • This is my FAVORITE movie!

    Skerv ~ Thank you from the bottom of my heart...and for all the wonderful comments here that I completely agree with, too.

    I hope there is a ****sequel**** to this *great* movie which manages to move me and still gives me delicious shivers -- each time I see it.

    XXXXXXXX

  • Hello lilfriedegg

    Wow, you leave me kind of speachless! Thank you so very much for your heartfelt words and comments!!! They are very much appreciated and I'm humbled. It is one of my all time favorite movies and I've been to Winterset where it was all shot and walking into that house gives you guoose bumps!! I'm not sure how they would do a sequel when both died in the first one. Again thank you so much!!

    Skerv

  • O filme mais lindoi do MUNDO...posso o ver vezes sem conta...

  • Hello tininhach2000

    I have no idea what you said but I'm going to thank you for your wonderful comments!!

    Skerv

  • The Portuguese or Brazilian gal is saying essentially that this is the most beautiful movie in the world and that she can watch it over and over without tiring of it.

  • Thank you so very much for translating that for me. I have a translater site I go to but couldn't figure this one out. Have a great day!

    Floyd

  • Hi Jeremy,

    Beautiful poem and wonderful words of everlasting love!! I only hope that Angela has read your words and knows you true and deep feelings for her!

    I hope you are together!

    Skerv

  • This movie is so warm and touching......a beautiful love story...." the story of my life begins with you and ends with you...". Accompanied by this great song by Neil Diamond made this video clip so awesome. Thanks for sharing.

  • Hello Nancy,

    Thank you for all your warm and wonderful words, they are much appreciated!

    Skerv

  • @nancyfloressantos Thanks for sharing. One of my favorite songs by

    Neil Diamond.

  • Hello John,

    Thank you, I appreciate you for your comments and kind words!

    Skerv

  • the best part is when clint eastwood says :" this kind of certainty comes but once in a lifetime" to mery streep. & it's made by clint eastwood; a magically beautiful movie.

  • I love this music and video clip!

    Thank you, again, for posting this.

    I'm very touched. Your friend,

    Roses

    Skerv

  • Hello RebelHeartWoman,

    Thank you for you much appreciated word and comments! I truly happy you liked ti!

    Skerv

  • I love this song..Probaly the greatest love song ever written..Well done Neil ..All the best,,Brendan

  • Hi Brendan,

    I sure ranks at the top as one of the best! Thank your for your wonderful comments, Have a wonderful day!

    Skerv

  • This is such truth....There are times in life that are one time chances and should be seized or forever lost....

  • you are right! iI think sometimes the life is too short and in spite of that we are frightened to do something, to change the things. and when we once grow old, we may be sorry for the things we did not do. but it is horribly hard to say what is a right decision.

    best wishes to you, too.

  • one more time a compliment to this movie and this video, everything is perfect, such a movie is possible to make one in a million years....

  • A friend, who has a karaoke show, introduced me to this song a few years ago. I hadn't made the connection until tonight to Bridges. You are right it would have been perfect for the dance scene. I lived for sometime in Winterset where it was filmed. And i danced at midnight on Roseman Bridge the last night I saw my Francesca. Thanks for the connection.

  • Hello Radio107,

    That would be a dream come true to dance on the bridge with my Francesca! I've been to the bridges and have carved our names into it but to dance.... Thank you for your wonderful comments and story!

    Skerv

  • This is just exquisite and very meaningful to me, as it merges many favorites: BRIDGES, the book and the movie; the song; and my all-time favorite artist, ND. Thank you so much. I've embedded your video into my website; I hope that is okay. Again, thanks for this blend of beauty.

  • Hello Sollfire,

    I'm flattered you'd embed this into your site! Thank you for your warm and kind words!

    Skerv

  • what a beautiful woman

  • fenja, thank you for your comment!

    Skerv

  • Skervydawg, you are right when you said that the movie is based on real life. It is MY life..I love the man but the future of my daughter became my priority. I have to sacrifice my very own happiness for her own . I cried and cried watching this movie and each time some family members what was the problem, i always said "my headache is killing me"..Beautiful movie, beautiful songs and music, excellent actors.. perfect!

  • Hello Rene,

    Thank you for your heartfelt words and comments! So many can relate to this movie. I can feel for you and what you feel and I'm humbled! My heart goes out to you,

    Skerv

  • I am sooo teary eyed right now...:(

  • Hello Laura,

    Your emotion is a great compliment to the song and video, thank you!

    Warm hugs,

    Skerv

  • Thank you Skerv for making such a beautiful video! I am still teary eyed though...:(

  • one of my favourite movies, really wonderful, they both are wonderful. It seems to me this is a real story, not a movie. Bravo!

  • its funny i played this song 20min ago before finding this version ;i was thinking then that this song was a prime candidate for a film soundtrack;it worked out truly well; neil diamond never fails to both move and uplift me some people have no idea how long hes been at it; anyway well done!

  • auga5,

    I thought I'd replied back to your comments when you first wrote it but I must have typed it in and not click post, I'm sorry! Thank you for all your wonderful words and kind comments! I think you're right this would have been a perfect song for the movie and had Clint heard or remember it he pry would have used it as great a director that he is. I'm a fan of both Clint and Neils so the video means a lot to me! Thank you once again,

    Skerv

  • I was so touched by your video, thank you so much for sharing. And yes, Blessed are those who feel that kind of certainty. I am still searching. I cried watching this video. Again, Thank You so much for sharing.

  • Hi Marie,
