  • A couple months ago I found the chrods to "He Stopped Loving Her Today", I played the song a couple times and I could hardly sing it as I was crying, but I kind'a liked the feeling, and it made me want to get drunk. Now today I just found the words and chords to "Turn Around", you know it did the same thing to me, I cried a bit and it felt good. I was born in 1956...thank you Harry Belafonte, Malvina Reynolds and Alan Greene. Cheers k

  • I danced to this song with my Dad at my wedding. Such a lovely song...

  • I have always loved this song. His voice was perfect for this. When my daughter got married I had poster sized pictures of her made from different times of her life and hung them around the room. My daughter and her Dad danced to this and there wasn't a dry eye in the place.

  • Please credit the songwriter: the great Malvina Reynolds, who also wrote 'Little Boxes,' the first-ever protest song against suburban sprawl.

  • laeryl23: have you listened to this radical old looney lately? he sounds like a shit salesman with a mouth full of samples. he's as relevant as ol' jim-boy carter.

  • @rte66byhd Everyone is entitled to their opinion, whether others agree with it or not. No matter what he believes, it doesn't take away from his career. He will never be washed up, no matter how many people take cheap shots at him. Songs like this are still moving people generations later and will continue to do so.

  • ol' harry turned into a radical old fool. how relevant can a washed-up calypso player. dayo dayo.

  • Song my dad played for me and that I sang to my three daughters. Harry Belafonte had such a wonderful voice. Great performer, great stage presence. Thank-you for the memories = )

  • My song for life... has made me cry since I was a little girl... thanks for posting.

  • he came straight over to me crying and put his arms around me and his head on my neck and whispered did I just leave our daughter on the floor and I told him it was ok because her new husband with tears in his eyes was there ti catch her when she ran into his arms crying. 'there was a standing ovation after that while everyone was crying. THANK YOU FOR PUTING THIS ON
