We can all look back at our lives while listening to this beautiful song and Glen does it so well. Glen, know that we remember and will always appreciate the exceptional talent you have, Age and illness may take it from you, but you shared it with us and we will treasure it and you.

@rinkrude1 Made this 'ol gal cry as well. Where does the time go? You think you'll be young forever, but alas you're fooled. The older you get the faster time goes. I heard that so often when I was young and didn't really listen. Now, especially since I have children ( in their teens and 20's) time races by at a dizzingly pace and .. to be honest. scares the hell out of me. All I can hope is that I leave a lasting impression on my kids :-)

Good lyrics sung so nicely by Mr. Campbell. Glen had so many great hits.

PS I just saw on the sidebar that Charles Aznavour's English version of his own song is, indeed, called "Yesterday, When I Was Young" which isn't the exact translation of the original, "Hier Encore."

FYI This wonderful song was written by the great French artist, Charles Aznavour, in the 50s or early 60s......He called it HIER ENCORE [Yesterday Again]. I improved my French by playing all his songs over and over while a student in France. Glen Campbell's English version is awesome, too, and I'm very sad to hear of his condition.

@Watchful38 "Love of family, but what about love of God?" TO WHICH I ASK, "LOVE OF GOD, BUT WHAT ABOUT LOVE OF JESUS?"!

[MrErika57]

old age is a matter of mind. if you does not matter,it doesn't mind.

[watchful38]

@Hatewhenthathappens Love of family, but what about love of God? The two should go together! The love of God grows within us more slowly, but "we have our neighbour always at our side." (St. Agustine) Or, also, "If you make people your path, you will arrive at heaven." "The command to love God is the first to be commanded, but the love of neighbour is the first to be practiced." And, I might add, does your love of family lead to a love for ALL humanity? A retired Catholic priest. Thanks.
