Yeah, I was 18 in 1967. My hair was long and my skirts were short. Music was in the air, London was intoxicating and we thought we could change the world.
Same age as me, I had hair which looked like an explosion in a mattress factory (a freakout) a long purple velvet coat, black velvet trousers, and a chiffon scarf, I was one of the beautiful people 😂
@@alanoneill3065 The Krays and Richardson's would have dealt effectively with the kind of antisocial behaviour we see in London today (their own antisocial behaviour excepted!). In the 60s many of the police were as corrupt as the criminals they were chasing. I worked with an ex-copper who was a young policeman in London in 1968. He told me about what had gone on.
If you haven't been back for a while my advice is DON'T !! I did a few months ago and that was my last visit. It's tatty and full of grim and beaten looking people.
Great video! makes you realise how nice Britain used to be. Not a mobile phone in sight, no security surveillance cameras everywhere, and on a social scale people were much happier. We had fantastic wide screen cinemas, with Saturday morning cinema for the kids, great fashion, plenty of jobs and a thriving export market. You never know how good it really was, until it's gone forever.
So do I get a lump in my throat, and I was only stardust in the 60s! (it was long before I was even born, in other words). I hate what I see today. What has become of the UK. Not just the UK, but also: Ireland, the United States, Canada, France, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Italy, Norway, Sweden, etc, etc.
Just look at London back then , still English, oh the beautiful mini skirted ladies , the colourful fashion, and the music , excuse me while I wallow in pure nostalgia.
It was still English, but that was the generation that were so keen to turn Britain into a multi-cultural society. Now OAPs in their seventies and eighties, they're moaning about the hell-hole they were responsible for letting successive governments create.
1967 = Beatles - 'All You Need Is Love' / Kinks - 'Waterloo Sunset' / Procol Harum - 'A Whiter Shade Of Pale' / Small Faces - 'Itchycoo Park' comes to mind. 🎵🎶🎸
It was a wonderful time to be a teenager… no knives, no ‘social media’ trolls, no extortionate rent to pay etc, etc… and the greatest soundtrack you could ever wish to hear - happy days indeed! ❤

I was 19 in this year. And what a year it was! 'They' say "If you remember the 60's, you weren't really there." I don't subscribe to that in the slightest! I remember, like it was yesterday. The atmosphere in London at night was palpable. You just didn’t know what was going to happen, all good, well in my experience. The restaurants, clubs/ discos were fantastic. Not forgetting, the iconic music, fashion, and hairstyles. My era for sure. Thanks for uploading, great memories.
I turned 18 in June of '67. The Beatles had just released the Sgt Pepper album. London was indeed a swinging place, the most happening, hip city in the Western world at that time. I didn't get there until 1972 but I read about it in magazines such as Time that put swinging London on the cover. San Francisco, of course, was the epicenter of hippydom. Didn't get there either that year. But i did make it to Atlantic City and Cape Cod. Ah, to be 18 again in that magical time.
In 1967,when I was 22 I was walking down Carnaby Street and an old man next to me said 'Look, there's old man Lennon'. When I looked, I saw John Lennon sitting in the passenger seat of a Lamborghini 6ft away from me. Ah.. the good old days right enough.. 🏴
In 1967 I worked in casper whyoming on a Buffalo Ranch....there were no dance clubs...no internet...and not many people....the people who worked the ranch were allmost allways too tired to go to the one nearest bar. Most settled for sleep after dinner.....but i'd rather be there than london.
ahhh the old London 60s 70s and early 80s where you could drive down to central London without parking charges, ULEZ or Congestion Charge. An innocent old London. Before greed culture took over
The image is so clear and I cannot believe this film was shot 55 years ago. Fashons in 1967 are really awesome, and women look so charming. At that time, I was a 11 years old Japanese primary school pupil in the countryside.
Far out Paul baby, I was 11 years young in 67, everyone and everything was groovy 😍🎉then, an uncle gave me a 10 shilling note for my birthday and I thought I was a really wealthy person 🤩and bought lots of things 🍦🍬🍭🥤🚲,,, 🕍😂

@@Edith-t4j Very few now, its never been easier as a non white in the UK now. But it was much more interesting and vibrant back in the 60s than now in London and the music was great.
I wasnt even alive back then i was born in 82 but damn i sure would love to go back to this decade to live and experience it - everyones just so laid back and chilled it seems - a stark contrast to what you get when you walk through London nowadays im sad to say .......
At least you got to experience the 80s and 90s.I was born in 99 wish I could time travel and experience 50s,60s,70s,80s etc to see what it was like.2000s was not that bad to grow up as a kid though tbh could of been worse I guess could of been born in 2010
We never thought it would change to this extent from '80 until '99 I lived in home counties, had to move back central London, then it hit me, by late '01 I'd made my mind up..Feb '02 gone for good 😮..but its following me..hmmmm 😢
I live in the USA and I've been a Who fan since maybe 7 years old when I first saw them on the Smothers Brothers comedy hour maybe in 1968. When I see old film clips of them and their contemporaries (especially the B&W ones) - yes, you can measure it in years... hard to describe....but it's almost as if it was another DIMENSION...another life kind of. And I've never been to the UK. I'm not a professional drummer, never was. But you could say seeing Keith Moon for the first time changed me. To me, The UK is the musical "Holy Land". If there is a time and place I'd want to be transported to, it would be Swingin' London in the mid 60's, for sure.
I saw 'The Who' in Bournemouth / UK (August '69) - the day before the Isle of Wight festival, which was the British 'Woodstock'. They were 'loud' - to put it mildly. 🎸🎵😲👀
That music is just fabulous and captures those wonderful times - in 1967 I was 18 years old and that was a wonderful time to be a young person. And all of those young people you are seeing are now in their 70's so youth is fleeting so enjoy it while you can. What were nuns doing on Carnaby St.?
I thought the same about the nuns, strange eh ! You are so right about age and youth. It was a wonderful time for us youngsters back them. Where did the time go indeed? I am now a retired middle aged person, who still can't believe my youth has gone. Now I want good health , not fun. But I still say to my lads to enjoy their youth while they still have it.

I see lots of beautiful looking women today, depends what you would call beautiful, personally I've never found women from this period attractive in the face, they kinda looked "older" looking, whereas today women in their early 20s tend to look younger than they are (baby faced), same with men. What I don't like today is peoples dress sense, all this ripped jeans fashion. The other day I saw someone who had two gaping holes in their jeans where the knees wear, looked ridiculous. And then we have women with that dye their hair yellow and pink lol.
I was 15 then and was born and bred in Lambeth, i used to work as a messenger for a printers along Fleet Street, i would walk all over the City and West End, the girls were beautiful, and the blokes looked like plonkers. I would give anything to be able to live my life again, London was an incredible place back then. What a bunch of lucky sods we were.
Oh the music took me straight back there. Anyone know who played this ,,,,, I was 23 yrs old. I was lucky to have been born around the end of 2nd world war. Everything from the 50s grew up with us. Lived opposite Wandsworth Common. Massive house. First in street for car. phone. fridge . It was exciting also I was so young. Born in 44. Mum & Dad worked hard but got rewards. Today you work till you drop for not much I feel sorry for many people of our country who in many ways have lost what WE HAD, or experienced.

Brexit was a whitexit and it's showing that you do need those "pesky" Eastern Europeans (I happen to be a Western-European who doesn't have great memories of Eastern Europeans in London, but as a Europhile I believe it was due to a lack of Europeanism on their side and I see that changing with right-wing pan-Europeanism growing).

I can hear the opening bars of Quincy Jones as I watch this. Love the artwork too. Must have been so new and modern to the 60s generation. Records at 7/6 too!❤❤😂
Those were the days. I am glad i lived through those days. It was an era that happened only once when life and culture was so different from today. Innocence lost. I am not a Londoner nor British. But the culture then was experienced throughout the world. The music the fashion and clothes - mini skirts turtle neck etc bell bottoms.agogo dancing. Gone were the days women wearing petticoats which have disappwared as a mandatory skirt accompaniment.

I am told by relics of that age (who still walk the Earth) that it was a time of great optimism.
Wow wow so lovely and clean pure pure English I was born this year in March always wonder about swinging 60s what would it have been like live then. I’m a car man can just imagine brand-new E-type jaguars and Mercedes pagodas Aston Martn DB5 Austin Healey Ferraris AC MGBs Triumph TRs so many
“Oh behave baby!”
Yeah!
Вспомнился "Clockwork orange" Кубрика..
(Я родился в 67. И таким представлял себе Лондон в детстве.)))

God! Was that really me!!!! Can't believe it - just made me cry...
Are you in this film?
Ordinary people being authentic
Julie Christie was everywhere :)
How the hell did we cope without millions of immigrants? Amazing🤣
British empire. That said, I hate non-European migration more than anybody. Brexit was a whitexit and it's showing that you do need those "pesky" Eastern Europeans (I happen to be a Western-European who doesn't have great memories of Eastern Europeans in London, but as a Europhile I believe it was due to a lack of Europeanism on their side and I see that changing with right-wing pan-Europeanism growing).
I know right! Take us back to the good old days of Jimmy Savile and Myra Hindley. 😢
@@southlondon86 as opposed to the mass knife stabbings and killings, destroying statues, female genital mutilation, putting bags over women's heads, the terrorist attacks on innocent civilians, the sharia law courts and London looking more like Islamabad, yes lefty multicultural progress indeed.
@@garygroombridge8248 Sir it’s not me deleting your comments. I had my comments deleted so I had to write them twice.
@@southlondon86 no I said leftists who run RUclips who won't allow vehement criticism of Islam and multiculturalism but allow constant criticism of western civilisation, like you do won't let me write the novel I could write on the evil of Islam.
Can someone pls hurry up and invent Time Travel, so I can live in London in 1967.
Make a film on the streets now and see if you can see any smiling or happy English natives.
And that Mr Khan is a community 🇬🇧
What a loser! Trump 2024
Oh wow, London looks so alive & colorful compared to now. I've never been to the UK. Would love to visit someday. And I am not stupid either. I watch international news/TV. Today's London is depressing. But I guess that's everywhere nowadays. 😂
Worth a visit… its a cool city
Oohhh yeaaah baby!! Let's take the Shaguar.
Love the music, it really sets an optimistic and uplifting tone. The footage is great too, I have used it myself in a couple of music videos. Cheers.
If you have the links to these, please send them. Glad you enjoyed it.

So glad I grew up in this time. England has disappeared almost completely down the proverbial tube…tragic
When London was ‘fantastically’ English ❤️
Und was willst du jetzt machen?
I remember shopping in Lord John about that time, prices weren't too bad from what I remember.
ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE
I can hear the opening bars of Quincy Jones as I watch this. Love the artwork too. Must have been so new and modern to the 60s generation. Records at 7/6 too!❤❤😂
It was the coolest place on earth, once upon a time.
London. Before the tide came in!
Bellissimo video
@@francescasapone9071 Grazie. Sono felice che ti sia piaciuto.
Year I was conceived, brilliant time
I love the theme of this video swinging 60s
When London was worth visiting
Those were the days. I am glad i lived through those days. It was an era that happened only once when life and culture was so different from today. Innocence lost. I am not a Londoner nor British. But the culture then was experienced throughout the world. The music the fashion and clothes - mini skirts turtle neck etc bell bottoms.agogo dancing. Gone were the days women wearing petticoats which have disappwared as a mandatory skirt accompaniment.
I was 12 in 1967 my mother bought me my first pair of pantihose I thought I was so grown up!
Before American Candystores took over.
And mindless corporations.
