How did someone write a piece of music that could be sung at two different tempos, and still fit? It sounds like it might be repeating just four notes. Or just a few. She is singing faster than the choir, but is still in time with the music. How does that work?

One of my favourite 90 seconds on the whole of youtube!

Thank you so much for posting this. I searched for a while on YouTube for it. Petula Clark and Peter O'Toole were perfect actors for this movie. Outgoing vs. shy characters with such love & respect for each other. This is one of my favorite scenes where the boys first realized the kind of person she was & fell instantly in love with her! I love how the boys wind up singing faster to her singing pace.

This is such an inspired scene - it says so much, so economically.

You're just hearing the character of the Headmaster's wife, intentionally off-key to make the Petula Clark character shine -- although she really glowed well enough, all on her own.
A great little scene, IMO

This moment was the button for me to love her character. This was an ingenious scene.
This version is cut off unfortunately. But it's a wonderful song & the world would be a better place if every person inculcated it into themselves, their children & their nation. Because, as the full version shows, we can each fill the world with love at every stage of Life & be the one to inspire others to do likewise.

Just love it and always have. Wonderful how the character creates passion by being passionate.
