I really like the music too. What is the name of this song if I may ask? It's beautiful and nostalgic.

Absolutely lovely. This was when America was still America: innocent, elegant, hopeful, magical, and genuine. Thank you for reminding me of what our once-majestic nation was like. I now understand my grandfather's remark that "1910 was one of the best years" he remembered. Despite some hardships, it was a better era in terms of decency, morality, and culture.

When I see them, I wished I would have lived back then!!! Life seems to have been so much more quiet and friendly and marvelous with people focusing on entire different things in life compared to today s consumption society...

You are so right, my father was born in 1928, my mother 1932. They remarked on things that their parents ways and beliefs to, I guess like you said 100 years will pass, and they will do a film about 2001!

Oh, I agree, I was a teenager in the mid to late 80's, and sometimes the things that I find myself remarking on now a days that I view as being odd makes me realize that I have morphed in to my parents. Jesus, I hear kids my nephews age saying the 90's were old school, LOL.

I remember a great aunt of mine telling me how she worked in an umbrella factory in the twenties. After her shift she was expected to take materials home and make ten umbrella's by the following morning. We shouldn't complain about our lives now.

haunting photo at 1:07..wonder what was going thru that girls mind...working in a factory at that age..and with an old woman at the sewing machine right in front of her..."will that be me in 50 years"..or was she thinking.."I will NOT be that in 50 years"?!?!

@italobambino43 I understand..but its all relative to time..in 100 years they will look back at us and wonder the same thoughts...as Im sure your father did about people who lived in cica 1880. And people in 1880 would se listening to a radio as grandiose!
