  • peter rabbit.. enough said

  • perfect day,perfect artist,perfect song,perfect orchestra.

  • Who else came here to hear Vocaloid Miriam's voice provider?

  • brings back memories

  • A wonderful Celtic feel about it from Vocaloids own Miriam. Well produced, arranged and sang

  • I like the sounds of the Northumbrian pipes as it gives the song a mystical and folksy twist.

  • Brings back fond memories of Peter Rabbit...

  • You know what? never mind.. I found it in the related videos. But thanks for uploading this beautiful song!

  • This brings back childhood memories. This song was used at this old children program when I was a kid.. Sadly I can't recall the name of the 'show', but the song is so beautiful. The intro was about a woman carrying some books or a basket or something.. She was walking on a path up to her house but it was a little bit far.. And when she walked you could see the wild life around her. Rabbits, frogs and the such.. And when she got home she would tell a story. A new story everytime.. About animals.

  • @maljoh7 i looked this song up cos i have the tapes of the show and rewatched them for the first time in years--

    it's called "the Tales of Peter Rabbit and Friends", and it opens with Beatrix Potter painting a water color of the hillside :3

  • @maljoh7 It was Peter Rabbit, wasn't it? :) Beatrix Potter and her stories about Peter Rabbit and Pigling Bland and Tom Kitten....

  • @maljoh7 - What you are remembering is the opening scenes to "The World of Peter Rabbit and Friends", an adaptation of the children's stories by Beatrix Potter. The woman who is depicted in the non-animated opening scenes, is supposed to be Beatrix Potter, sitting down to write her next book. The opening also had really beautiful orchestral music reminiscent of Vaughan-Williams (to reflect the British origins). You can find clips on youtube.

  • @Theowne Holy cow. Nostaligia time.

  • This is just one of those songs, the ones that make you seriously think about how beautiful the world is... That make you remember the magic of the past, and wish for peace..

  • I have the original CD this is on. It came with select copies of VHS tapes that this song is featured on (The Beatrix Potter collection) The CD has both versions of the song.

  • @Beninimation Her Vocaloid is awesome, I love Miriam XD

  • Does anyone here know about her vocaloid?

  • @Benimation yes!

  • This song... So sad.. yet so entriguing..

    So many memories... It feels like I finally found that one song that touch my very soul.

    This is. The perfect sad song.

    The very theme of it's piano fills my soul..

    Thank you Miriam Stockley. Thank you.

    And thank you animation crew who drew/animated the cartoon..

    God, thank you. :)

  • This is the world of Peter Rabbit and his friends' theme tune from the 90s.

    Brings back memories :)

  • Wow what a voice and what a composition ...This is terrific and stirring Peace

  • ...the world is so much bigger than I imagined....

  • Tutto il buono e il bello della vita racchiuso in tre minuti di melodia........

  • o my god :)

  • I am not skilled enough, but it'd be really nice to...don't kill me...make this into softcore dubstep...

  • I have the whole soundtrack from the TV series :) was the first album I bought as a kid.

  • If its possible for a song to gently touch your soul, then this is one of them..

  • I seriously want this to be played at my funeral. I've spent my time on this earth dwelling on my past memories, always swimming in nostalgia. What better way so say goodbuy than playing this incredible song from one my most precious memories from my childhood.

  • @Tulljfette couldnt agree more, thats exactly how i feel how this song

  • I have shed manly tears .............

  • @Farvan893 Can't blame you, beautiful song

  • @Farvan893 I KNOW DAT FEEL BRO

  • Is better if i explain my feeling listening that song in my mother tongue:

    fantastica!

  • what genre is this music?

  • @tazman5001

    I would say New Age.

  • Very beautiful

  • 11 bastards hate their life

  • I love this song.. <3

  • Ahhh, my getaway song.. the song I listen to when the the worlds ignorance seems to be bringing me down and I need to escape the negativity... the song I listen to when i need to remember simpler times, times where it was easy to be happy and joyful, times that you will always treasure and miss dearly... This will forever remain the only song that can properly calm me down. <3

  • I have serched high and low for this song,I first heard it as a child as the theme song of an english story telling ,cartoon type thing ,I LOVE THIS SONG, I am in tears this song sent me straight back to my childhood,oh my gosh!

  • I watched World of Peter Rabbit and Friends on TV in America when I was very young. I managed to get my parents to record it on VCR, and just a few months ago, I remembered the song from the film rather vividly. Thanks to the internet, I was able to find out what I was remembering.

  • This is the most beautiful song. I remember curling up on the bean bag and watching Peter Rabbit, and loving the baby fox, and the hedgehog and the geese and rabbits. It is so amazing :'D

  • I love the song the music and everything in it everytime I am stresed I just listen to this song and I'm fine again :)

  • Ouaw, it is this voice which served to Vocaloid Miriam? I'm impressed.

  • Love love love. Just listened to it over again....I must have it!

  • I love what you have done combining the song and the graphics. I too would love to have a copy of them both together; it proves to be very de-stressing. I kindly ask of you , might I receive a copy of your genius creation so I can enjoy it over, and over , and over again. I'd really love it. I really think it is a work of art. I would be greatly appreciated! I love the music; it really compliments and matches beautifully with the graphics. I must have it....please and thanks!

  • Can you please please please post a link of the picture used in this video? It would be greatly appreciated! I love the music, and it matches beautifully with the picture. :)

  • those 11 people must be minions of satan, how can you not love something as beautiful as this?

  • listening to this song makes me feel as though I'm at peace, enjoying life and there's nothing to be scared of any more, but then I know that's not true. if only we could stay forever young.

  • Reminds me of the days when i watched Peter Rabbit, beautiful piece of music, so mystical and magical

  • This isn't almost impossible to find anyomore your video is on the top of the search for Miriam Stockley-Perfect Day so thanks for putting it up!! :D x

  • Comment removed

  • makes me cry omg Wat a lovely melody her voice is amazing. Shes truly a wonderful singer. love her she probably my favorite artist ATM. i would love lyrics though but all in all love it love her love the upload

  • This was the song to my childhood. Thank you so much for posting this. I got so teary from hearing this.

  • my little sister use to watch this in the morning and i use to walk past and hear. It would brighten up my day. thanks i love it xoxo

  • Perfect song.

  • wasnt this the version that was the theme to the beatrix potter peter rabbit series?

  • I'd love to go on a holiday to an English countryside, warm cups of tea, a cosy little cottage, the quiet countryside ect.

  • I also discovered this via Beatrix Potter which led me to discover Miriam Stockley and then buy her CD which I now go to sleep to nearly every night. I'm lucky I see the English countryside all the time, but it takes me back to a time before cars, computers, political correctness and health and safetly gone mad! It's a beautiful song in my opionion - very calming; her whole solo album is great too - try it and see

  • Such a haunting song. Sends shivers down my spine every time. Hearing this song after so many years makes me yearn to see the english countryside just once.

  • this song is part of my childhood.

    i will show all the peter rabbit stories when i have children.

  • adventures of peter rabbit yew!

  • This is why I don't people who preffer these Happy Wedding Disco Songs like YMCA & Timewarp. These songs that are played in the Sadder Minor key just sound so much more delicate & Powerful. These kind of songs actually mean something. Totally Heart Rending.

  • This song is childhood for me:)

  • Thumbs up if u heard this on Peter rabbit :)

  • Does anyone know where to find the video that came with this show? You know, the woman painting and the dog running about, kids skipping and so on?

  • This song is just so beautiful. Whenever I think back on my childhood and when everything was going right this song comes to mind. When I listen to this it is so pure and soothing that I can forget all of my worries for a little while. This never fails to bring a tear to my eye and a shaky smile to my face. I don't know what else to say. I hope this helps other people remember those perfect days and hope for future ones.

  • I just love this song and simple video. I first heard it on the tv show 'The Adventures of Peter Rabbit and Jemima Puddle Duck', but it's just so soothing and calming. It just sweeps me away with happy thought and light feelings. I really love to listen to it and just relax, over and over again. I love it.

  • how I can download this piece of art to my computer???

  • This version is very beautiful. Thank you for posting.

  • This song was my sanctuary when I was a kid and going through chemo. I can remeber how it always made me feel at peace and all my troubles just went away.

  • This version is the ORIGINAL orchestration that appears on the album 'The Beatrix Potter Music Collection' (PICKWICK PWKS4200) featuring the London Filmworks Orchestra, conducted by Colin Towns, released in 1994. I got my copy of the album on ebay. Miriam re-recorded it for her 'Miriam' album

  • @nicknighthawk Thank you for the info!

  • @nicknighthawk so,how do you explain using other piano at  begining then?

  • @nicknighthawk cause any other song "Miriam Stockley - Perfect Day" I was playing has different piano used in it ...I found only this video with this piano, which you can hear ...(and I found it more beautiful)

  • @OnnomonnomonnO all the other versions you have heard are the re-recorded version on Miriam's 'Miriam' album. This version (with the beautiful piano) is the ORIGINAL recording that was used for the animation (you can hear all the instruments of a full orchestra throughout this version)

  • @nicknighthawk Ok then :) thanx for info ;) I wanted to recognize which is original..and I thought that the most uploaded version is ....thx

  • @nicknighthawk  Can you upload that album?? i love the music to that animation, great memories none of it seems to be on youtube!!

  • @nicknighthawk Can you upload that album?? id love to here the score to that show, great memories and great music, cant find it anywhere!

  • Beautiful

  • The rain has moved on,

    And left a new day,

    Nothing seems to move everything is still... It’s just a perfect day!

    Just "this", one morning like this, makes your life perfect, not just one day!

  • Wowww.... judging from her Vocaloid persona, I thought she would sound all chipmunk-y, but she has an extremely beautiful voice. I should've known you can't judge a singer by their Vocaloid xD

  • Wow~ im at a loss for words~ beautiful~

  • I want to hug Peter Rabbit !

  • All my memories just come alive I'm crying but I don't know why I'm just crying against my own will as if the days and years and months force them to resurface

  • i dont think ive ever experienced a perfect day...is there such a thing?

  • my nan sang this to me at her home then passed away so sad :'(

  • @rainbow123991 What a beautiful memory :)

  • Amazing voice!

  • i lived in the Lake district for several years and always hum this song when I journey back there

  • Perfect

  • Now this... THIS is why they chose her voice for the Vocaloid...

  • @SelenaEstella Indeed.

  • gimme the download?? PLease!? I love this song and Frost Wire doesnt have it!

  • oh my god,her voice is awesome....no wonder her vocaloid Miriam have so realistic voice

  • I remember, as a young kid, sitting in our uptown apartment's bedroom and watching the Peter Rabbit TV show. There was such innocence and magic to this song, both of which are now long gone in my life. A year ago, my parents came over and brought their VCR copy of one of the episodes (the one with Mr. McGregor's garden), and I couldn't watch it past the first five minutes after getting tearfully choked up. To me, this song is a requiem of the past, simple and serene. It's really beautiful.

  • @flyforce16

    you said it perfectly

  • @flyforce16 My son who is now 18 used to watch those videos when we visited his grandmother's house when he was little. He loved the stories and music as a child, and I would sit and watch them with him (even the music stirred something in me back then). He posted a video from the episode you mentioned on his Facebook page yesterday and commented about watching them and as a child. I got teary-eyed as I thought he had forgotten those simpler days.

  • @flyforce16

    I remember when my kids used to watch Peter Rabbit. for several weeks I kept hearing this absolutely beautiful music, until one day I made a point of watching it with them until I could see details of the song in the closing credits; I then prompty got a copy of the song.

  • @flyforce16 i teared up when this song started, and now im tearing more after reading this. this song is my childhood

  • @flyforce16 yes...a requiem to a place we'll never see again.

  • Peter The Rabbit<3<3<3

  • im in another world

  • The song just finished as my clock hit midnight, probably the best possible ending to a day.

  • I am literally in tears as im writting this. It's been almost 14 years since i've heard this song. Brings me beautiful memories of Peter Rabbit, me as a child, and other Beatrix tales. @InSaneTk, you've made my whole week....Beautiful memories came rushing by as the song played... Such wonderful times... Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

  • 11 people didn't have a perfect day

  • InSane, Where did you get the background graphic? I really really like it especially the way it slowly changes over the song. Where can I find it?

  • This is my favourite song to play on piano.

    I've always thought it was hauntingly beautiful, something perfect that's not quite right.

    My best friend and I play this together when we need to escape the rest of the world.

    And this was the song that I was playing at the moment that changed my life.

    The best moment and the worst moment in one song.

    Yet, I can't stop playing.

    Listen to the song, then you tell me why.

  • YEEEESH! I've been searching for this song for ages.

  • Miriam Stockley is a dream. What a gift.

  • One of my best friends has a tape with this song on it, I believe it was a collection of songs from various movies. The tape got lost and for 12 years I remembered this song but didn't have a copy of it or know it's source. We were visiting family and the kids were watching a movie upstairs...all I needed to hear was the first line and I was like "Holy crap! I know what song that is!!!" Soooo glad to find it after all these years, one of my alltime favs. (sent the link to my friend of course!)

  • @matrixinterface How awesome, to rediscover a song in such a way.

  • Yes, I would leave my wife for her.

  • @Latrinesha LOLOLOL

  • Beautiful. Just beautiful.

  • Probably the best your gonna get to the most perfect song ever

  • 11 people did not have a perfect day.

  • @RebellionLord Ridiculous peoples

  • @RebellionLord yes very true

  • No words. Out of this world.

  • This song remind me of when I was a kid :) My mom used to sing it for me.

  • this song is perfect, a perfect waltz song

  • It's been nigh on a decade and a half since my parents first took me to the Lakes for a holiday. How days were simpler compared to my adult life, what I wouldn't give to be able to endlessly walk the fells now. And with all the memories this song brings back this must be at the forefront of any "Lakeland Playlist"

  • her voice can wash away my dirty mind.
