@SimpleSoviet And who can blame you? It was such a beautiful song back in 1966 and by George! it still is!!

Splendid performance of a super lovely Rabindrasangeet song. Then which one isn't?

The trendy interpretation of this already fun song made it that much more enjoyable. Every now and again it is good for the soul to breakaway from the purist notion on how Tagore ought to be performed! Doll up the occasional Tagore but for heaven sake lets not go over the top and just do up the o...

@prakritibasu886 Actually sir it is not nearly as bad and boring as I made it out to be a year ago. Age mellows one! All the same thank you for supporting my views such as they were then!

I write this from the foothills of the Himalyan mountain range. Bloody cold here! Song takes me back to my modest lodgings West Hampstead NW6 1967. Great and fun times too. Thanks for posting

A lovely cover version. Not sure it aint better than the original! Thanks for posting.

Along with the Godfather the Brando one and Cabaret for me were the best films of the 70s! Slightly underrated decade unlike the 60s but much fun was to be had in the 70s too!

@sunarise1 Absolutely !

If you are Bengali then likely as not you will know the names I am about to mention and might even see where I am coming from! ! If it wasn't for Tarunda and Rituporna Sen Gupta's Alo I wonder if I would have become such an Tagore listener. I love this song ,was one of my mother's favourite. It...

@InParticularNobody You said it all for me. Thank you. A friend of mine almost 50 years ago said this to me of Rubber Soul. I was doing my A levels then. He said if the songs were released as singles they would hit the number one spot! I bought the LP as the same afternoon and Rubber Soul still ...

So much more interesting than so many other instrumental cover versions of the Beatles. I am glad you chose this song....a really super song. Happy New Year from India!

@aryavarta100 Absolutely nice one! Well said sir. We are the same people even siblings. Great song and I wish our politicians (both countries) would think the way the majority of Pakistanis and Indians think. How can we go to war when we all love Rafi saab so very much, we eat the same food, we w...

@MKowloon Ha ha! Too true mate! I have often thought listening to some spectacular Lennon Mccartney compositions, how dare anyone make such beautiful songs! When I heard songs like Things we said today For No One It's Only Love Ask Me Why All My Loving and this one too and countless others I was...

@Rebecky66 It is my ignorance that I cannot follow your comment. Nevertheless this is one very fine song....sung by the great lady.

You know something I talk too much! Too quick to judge and you know after your comment I decided to listen to it again....Bob's version...and it is as you say...cool. Cheers.

I appreciate what you said and all I can offer is an apology if I came across as boorish. Take care and thanks.

..and another reason why I loved this song is that in the 60s I used to live in Belsize Park NW London!

@anupamsircar You are a good man. A wonderful translation of a song that has always been a favourite. I don't like using the word 'favourite' in context with Tagore only because it sounds flippant. My comprehension of my mother tongue (Bengali) leaves much to be desired. Your translation has mad...

@okkalather In Burma? She is one of the greatest in the world. She belongs to the same table as Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Mother Teresa.... she sacrificed a very comfortable life for her country. Daw Aung San Suu Kyi what can one say to you?

@Sohily99 I will be there.....

What makes Elvis and the Beatles even more precious is the memories each song carries with it, some very sad ones too. When I was at school I bought this album for half a crown from a classmate. This was boarding school days....I heard much later that my friend had died in a crash. I still think ...

The loveliness of this song so reminds me of another lovely song, This Boy, by the Beatles. Soft, gentle and a great song.

@squirepete Thank you so much. This song has always been touted as an absolute Paul McCartney effort and John never got a look in. It is a great song regardless but it is so nice to know as you so nicely put it..a true collaboration! That's how I remember the lads. Rubber Soul was another example...

BRILLIANT!

This has to be my favourite Cliff song... supremely beautiful. Thanks for posting.

A very fine and loving nostalgic clip poster...many thanks...Elvis, Beatles etc were all the same....great funsters!

@hollies65 And then along came the Beatles and not too many rock and rollers from the USA could hold a candle to the Liverpool lads! To be fair the Beatles would be the first to say without the US influence, Everly Brothers too, would they have been the dogsbollox in the UK??!! All in good fun I ...
