I am very proud of my dad for writing this song and getting it to number 1, even though i wasnt born lol.

What a beautiful song, and nostalgic. It was great to see it sung 'raw' - but I did miss the 'ally ally-o" from the schoolkids in the closing chorus. 5 stars nonetheless.
PS: This clip brought another memory flooding back which was chubby brown's parody of this song. If anyone can tell me where to find that, I'll love you forever!

Great song Great guys.
Who on earth are the two girls standing like they need to pee?
Not only are they ignorant of times gone by, they clearly couldn't be bothered even reading the notes on this one.

Like a fine wine that's maturing nicely with the years.

Just heard this song for the first time while looking for a Lowry print. What an amazing tune! Great voices and lyrics! Why are there versions by everyone EXCEPT for Brian and Micheal on itunes?!! Cheers for uploading :)

Yes I have been to Canada, although it was almost 30 years ago.
Please have a look at my two video here, when I visited my cousin in Montreal, and we visited New York. The twin towers were standing then.
