I was 11 when this was released and only appreciated this song in later years, I am so glad I was bought up with 60's and 70's music, best years for music, period!!
Crispian as well as being a great singer was also a great song writer & producer, who went to the top but got a raw deal with bad management. He was a dignified character, we were great buddies in latter years, I covered a few of his songs, his material never grew old. Rest in peace Crispian...
At that time of my life ( teenager) I didn't even knew what the lyrics where about. (sorry bad English) Operation Pied Piper in WW2...hundredsofthousends children were evacuated in England! Why did they call a militaary operation: Operation Pied Piper... How did they manage that in those days without smartphones, evacuate 1,5 million people? Search this on YT and watch (from about 2 hours) Christmas Unveiled: Pied Piper / Templars Secret / Saturn's Workshop / Giants stealing children...

That was my husband of 50 years' theme song at the college age kids here in TX. He Was the Pied Piper and he led the whole place behind him. Boy, did we dance for hours. Such a happy song to remember since I lost him in 2016.

If you knew who my father is you would be glad for what was written. Hans Christian Anderson stories are good too.
Visited the UK from NZ in 1966 , bought a camper van and travelled through Europe for eight months , used to listen to this classic on Radio Caroline , very fond memories .
I'm adding this for posterity. I'm 41 and love this song. My Mom made us listen to all of her tunes growing up. It's strange realizing that despite me thinking the 60s was sooo long ago (as a kid), I realize now it was less than 20 years before my birth. And now, the songs from my formative years are to my children what these songs were to me. To them, no doubt, my younger years are "sooo" long ago, when in reality it was just the blink of an eye. The comment section here has me thinking about life, time, and how little of both we actually have. Be well, everyone. May time pass you slowly.
Time Like a snowball Rolling downhill The farther( further?) it goes The faster it goes. Thank God for Jesus, and eternal life. This is the first stepping stone The GR8 mid 60’s to 1972 music in our latter days of this life make our musical memories Magical. CB

I covered this song in my band back in 1966 when it first was released. It got everyone up and dancing. This music video is wonderful and adorable with all the children. The first time seeing it.
What did you guys do for the flute part? I was in a cover band for many years but in the 2000s. We did mostly 70s rock though. Any time something like this came up I had to double up on guitar and keyboard. And it didn't always work.
@@murderinc.hunting7686 Murder, back in the 60's we had even less options for sound than you did in the 70,s .We would use the organ for any other musical part. It sucked, but that's all any band back then had as an option.
I first listened to this song at the time I was living in Salt Lake City where there is a radio station that only plays pure oldies. listening to this song again certainly takes me back to Salt Lake City.
This was released 12 years before I was born. I love it. Tho I love most music of the 60s-70s 😀 listening in 2024 and this tune has inspired my writing of my serial killer book
This was the first song by Crispian St. Peters that I heard on the radio, back in 1966. I was 13 at the time, didn't know anything about overdub, and didn't have resources to look up performers or songs. My older brother started laughing when I told him I heard a duet by two guys named Crispy and St. Peter.
'Adorable'? I was born in the UK in 1959. Those kids are not adorable... they are confused! We were easy to confuse in those days (maybe still are). Just joking.
I sang this song when I was in the Catholic school in Vanderbijlpark. 😢😢😢😢 love thos song. ❤❤❤ I was a wee Catholic Lassie gave me a fantastic foundation, thank you Mom Dad. ❤❤
I am a music fanatic at age 53 and thought I knew most music - I love everything from Elvis to Pink Floyd to Run DMC but this for some reason escaped me until I heard it on the radio a couple of years ago, now it's one of my most played over tracks.
I was 8 yo in '68 and just starting to listen to AM pop radio, this was one of the first songs I heard. Must have left an impression as I'm now 62 and still play it often.
The song came out in 1966 and I was five years old and probably my favorite age ! The changing times bought it out first but didn't do very good ! This song climb to number one in Canada and United States it hit 4 and in England did about the same ! One of my favorites ! 🌟
I was abused in every which way as a kid. I heard this song throughout the late 60s / early 70s. It made me feel like all the punches, kicks and unspeakable things done to me by both sexes never happened for the duration of this and some other songs. Music is still my only personal joy
@@Fellowtraveller2 the past 18 months as i finally found someone who was able to identify it as C-PTSI. I'd been to many psychologists and counsellors and even 2 psychiatrists and no-one came close. They'd tell me meaningless words. Now it all makes sense. But finding out in my 60s that all that abuse caused me to shunned, bullied and disdained has left me feeling that my life was _stolen._ I've suffered rejection everywhere. I'm struggling to put it together and make something of life. I'd like a partner one day. What's that like I wonder?
I saw him at Carlisle UK in 1966, he was supporting The Seekers but Judith Durham was ill. Didn’t bother for a refund as we enjoyed the rest of the show.
I taped this off Radio Luxemburg and think I wore the tape heads out playing it overa nd over 😂 Oh and the plastic laundry basket brings back memories!
I'm a huge fan of Gene Pitney's. My husband bought tickets to see him in 1989 in San Diego. Such a thrill for me to see this man & hear him sing in person! His greatest hits CD was played often when we drove from CA to IL.
I have always loved this song. I was also just about the same age as the Kids in the video. He looked like a kind Man, looking out for that little fella. 😁
I was like 7 years old when I first heard this song 63 now and still love the hell out of it of course love Ramones and hardcore punk but this song always gets to me
1967 15 yrs old used to do a Cha Cha Cha to this at The Court School of Ballroom Dancing. It was above the Burton tailors shop in Enfield town. They used all of the pop hits of the time and either slowed them or sped them up slightly! Never forgotten.

Amazing upload, I well remember this great tune around 1970/1 but it seems it wasn't this version but Bob and Marcia on the Trojan Reggae Label, a catchy little tune - so many great sounds and so varied at that time!
Mine and my girlfriends favorite song. it's not 2022, but 66 and we are riding down Lake Shore Drive in Chicago. Song comes on WLS and we sing. Top down on my Chevy convertible. 80 degrees, sun no clouds, no worries. Heading norths into an uncertain future. We didn't make it much after HS. She married old boyfriend, I got drafted. Great girl, tough, smart, pretty. I hope life found a
No, it was a 1957 Chevy Bel Aire. Fire Engine red. I accept age and all its consequences, but man, what I wouldn't do for 20 minutes heading north on Lake Shore Drive top, down, singing like we didn't have a care in the world, we didn't. And yes, this song was sung by me, many, many times.
Correction. It was a convertible with the electric lift motor behind the rear seat. When I hear this song I see her face and smile, I hope she does too,
@@ElizaDolittle They get taken inside a mountain, don't they, and then the door closes on them. Was just thinking of it this morning, that's why I came here!
God!!!!...We Had Good Music 🎵🎶...It is one of my favorites too....I am 60...it is 2022....i was a Boy when this came out....I recorded a lot from the Radio in California...this song was on one of my tapes....played that one all the time...It is still Cool in the 21st Century!!!
Terrific vid with adorable kids, one continuity issue: It would be better to see Crispian holding a straw or wicker basket. The plastic laundry basket detracts from all the pluses of this vid..
A couple of years ahead of it's time for early 1966...Pre psyche.. This is music guys were doing in like mid 1967/1968...He was ahead of the game this guy Crispian..Cool frankny64yroldwhitekid rockfan USA
It's A Shame The Traeger Commercial Gets More Views Than The Original *Crispian St. Peter's* Version Let's Help *Crispian St. Peter's* Reach 1B Views Who's With Me?
I loved this song as a child, it's great. This is the first time I've seen this clip, slightly weird! lol The kids are adorable, but why is he carrying a washing basket?! Couldn't they find a flute?
Bob and Marcia did a Reggae version of this song and it was a chart hit after Young Gifted and Black. Many pied pipers around these days with all the answers. Not just in Hamelyn.
@@naj5338yeah that's true but the UK have a much older history, and the USA aren't shrinking violets when it comes to more recent history, the Vietnam& gulf wars, war in Afghanistan, your political corruption and within the media and Hollywood, social and racial inequalities and the list goes on lol
Fantastic, very memorable for the singing, and for this video specifically, the random use (only time I have seen this by the way) of a laundry basket as a video prop.
I saw a commercial and heard this song... I felt like I've heard it before. And just searched "follow me I'm" that's all I had. And found it! I was born in '66
@@cheriecraighead1502 I was born in 1957 and was scheduled for the USMC boot camp at Paris island. The war ended when I graduated high school. I did a U turn and became a Southeast Alaska logger for 25 years. I was so happy.
Brought up on songs like these my older brother played them all the time there we're 14of us loved them all
I was 11 when this was released and only appreciated this song in later years, I am so glad I was bought up with 60's and 70's music, best years for music, period!!
You couldn’t be MORE correct. CB
50s and 60s for me
Crispian as well as being a great singer was also a great song writer & producer, who went to the top but got a raw deal with bad management. He was a dignified character, we were great buddies in latter years, I covered a few of his songs, his material never grew old. Rest in peace Crispian...

Kommt mir ebenso vor, bin mittlerweile 70 Jahre.
Wonder if that "Management" you mentioned happened to be God's Chosen?
Was a youngster when this came out, but still love his songs.
When this song came out I would have been the same age as the children seen here, I am 56 now and i wonder where those years have gone.
You and me both!
Mate im only 35 and love this song
wait till your my age, 65, you'll be wondering even more....
Damn boi, you guys are older than my mom
Holy s..... that is a depressing comment......
I was going with a beautiful girl who used sing this song, wonderful memories.
I was 18 years old which makes me 76 now.
Still feel young and happy.

I just read your post and I have the same story...

'Adorable'? I was born in the UK in 1959. Those kids are not adorable... they are confused! We were easy to confuse in those days (maybe still are). Just joking.
Great song. It was a big hit the summer I was in National Guard camp outside Boise, Idaho, listening to the local Top 40 station.

I was abused in every which way as a kid.
I heard this song throughout the late 60s / early 70s. It made me feel like all the punches, kicks and unspeakable things done to me by both sexes never happened for the duration of this and some other songs.
Music is still my only personal joy
I’m so sorry to hear that you were abused. I hope some healing has occurred for you.
@@Fellowtraveller2 the past 18 months as i finally found someone who was able to identify it as C-PTSI.
I'd been to many psychologists and counsellors and even 2 psychiatrists and no-one came close. They'd tell me meaningless words. Now it all makes sense. But finding out in my 60s that all that abuse caused me to shunned, bullied and disdained has left me feeling that my life was _stolen._ I've suffered rejection everywhere. I'm struggling to put it together and make something of life. I'd like a partner one day. What's that like I wonder?
@@Fellowtraveller2 thank you for asking.
So sorry to hear about your experiences growing up. No- one should have to go through that. Hope you find some peace xx
This takes me back so long ago.......lovely song. So many memories. ❤
Great tune, I still have the 45 !
me too 😊

The Dark Tower referenced this song, and it definitely has an ominous vibe when put in the context of the story.
I saw him at Carlisle UK in 1966, he was supporting The Seekers but Judith Durham was ill. Didn’t bother for a refund as we enjoyed the rest of the show.
I like how videos were simpler back then but still conveyed what the songs were about not like nowadays
Oggi fa schifo tutto, elefantiasi creatività zero, ripresa di " quei " tempi, copiatura..
Anni '60 = i migliori del secolo, si sa...
I taped this off Radio Luxemburg and think I wore the tape heads out playing it overa nd over 😂 Oh and the plastic laundry basket brings back memories!
First heard in my high school years...
I think this is a silly song 🎵
I'm a huge fan of Gene Pitney's. My husband bought tickets to see him in 1989 in San Diego. Such a thrill for me to see this man & hear him sing in person! His greatest hits CD was played often when we drove from CA to IL.
I have always loved this song. I was also just about the same age as the Kids in the video. He looked like a kind Man, looking out for that little fella. 😁
Absolutely gold
What a great Song 😎😎💯🌹💖🐨💜💋💋💋💋💯
this is my favorite song of ”SILICON VALLEY”
same
watch it again man
I was like 7 years old when I first heard this song 63 now and still love the hell out of it of course love Ramones and hardcore punk but this song always gets to me
So you were "like" 7 years old... Is that 6 years old or 8 years old... They're "LIKE" 7... Eff wit...
1967 15 yrs old used to do a Cha Cha Cha to this at The Court School of Ballroom Dancing. It was above the Burton tailors shop in Enfield town.
They used all of the pop hits of the time and either slowed them or sped them up slightly! Never forgotten.
One of many catchy pop tunes from that magical music decade
I have the same laundry basket, seriously, it's identical !

Thanks Dave for the lyrics.
Herren er din udlejer, og hvis du ikke går i kirke og hjælper, har du ikke betalt din afgifter åndeligt og følger piberen til dit nye hjem.
Amazing upload, I well remember this great tune around 1970/1 but it seems it wasn't this version but Bob and Marcia
on the Trojan Reggae Label, a catchy little tune - so many great sounds and so varied at that time!
Mine and my girlfriends favorite song. it's not 2022, but 66 and we are riding down Lake Shore Drive in Chicago. Song comes on WLS and we sing. Top down on my Chevy convertible. 80 degrees, sun no clouds, no worries. Heading norths into an uncertain future. We didn't make it much after HS. She married old boyfriend, I got drafted. Great girl, tough, smart, pretty. I hope life found a
I hope life found a smooth road for you in peace and happiness.
❤
So
This song could have been sung by you.
Great story.
Question: was your Chevy Convertabke
a 1961? Just wondering... CB
No, it was a 1957 Chevy Bel Aire. Fire Engine red. I accept age and all its consequences, but man, what I wouldn't do for 20 minutes heading north on Lake Shore Drive top, down, singing like we didn't have a care in the world, we didn't. And yes, this song was sung by me, many, many times.
Correction. It was a convertible with the electric lift motor behind the rear seat. When I hear this song I see her face and smile, I hope she does too,
I think this song has some kind of magic on children I must have been 10 and I still remember it as if it were then.
Do you know the real Pied Piper story? It's a medieval tale. Look it up - it has to do with children and it's quite evil.
@@ElizaDolittle They get taken inside a mountain, don't they, and then the door closes on them. Was just thinking of it this morning, that's why I came here!
@@ElizaDolittle song is about a girl he likes. CB
@@carolebarker2195 song is about a girl he likes. Don’t ruin a good love song by an evil fable, please. CB
@@EmmyPierz-ek7hi Sorry. It is a good song and he had a nice voice.
love this i was a kid then in the bronx nyc
God!!!!...We Had Good Music 🎵🎶...It is one of my favorites too....I am 60...it is 2022....i was a Boy when this came out....I recorded a lot from the Radio in California...this song was on one of my tapes....played that one all the time...It is still Cool in the 21st Century!!!
Fantastic song
Terrific vid with adorable kids, one continuity issue: It would be better to see Crispian holding a straw or wicker basket. The plastic laundry basket detracts from all the pluses of this vid..
A couple of years ahead of it's time for early 1966...Pre psyche.. This is music guys were doing in like mid 1967/1968...He was ahead of the game this guy Crispian..Cool frankny64yroldwhitekid rockfan USA
It's A Shame The Traeger Commercial Gets More Views Than The Original *Crispian St. Peter's* Version Let's Help *Crispian St. Peter's* Reach 1B Views Who's With Me?
Music like this is just fun plain and simple. It brings a big fuckin grin to my face!
Who Ever Found this Nugget,Thank you for the Sunshine
I loved this song as a child, it's great. This is the first time I've seen this clip, slightly weird! lol
The kids are adorable, but why is he carrying a washing basket?! Couldn't they find a flute?
Must Perform This Song! I Just Love It !!! Singing Refereeeree
What a voice!
Bob and Marcia did a Reggae version of this song and it was a chart hit after Young Gifted and Black.
Many pied pipers around these days with all the answers.
Not just in Hamelyn.
1966
Thank you 🙂,

At a time when England was still great and respected.
You are absolutely right ✅
England is still great and way above the United States for good deeds that country has done to help.
@@Annieisfreejustlikebutterflies England like the U.S.A has become a woke 💩 hole run by corrupt WEF puppet politicians.
@@Annieisfreejustlikebutterfliesif you think so. Great Britain surpassed the USA in colonialism. By a huge margin.
@@naj5338yeah that's true but the UK have a much older history, and the USA aren't shrinking violets when it comes to more recent history, the Vietnam& gulf wars, war in Afghanistan, your political corruption and within the media and Hollywood, social and racial inequalities and the list goes on lol
I don't know how many little boys and girls who have followed the singer Crispian Saint Peter, not easy to count them in the video
Hello from Berlin, Germany - I was born close to this town named Hameln. When you come there you will find a lot of souvernies rat shaped 😍
What?
Remember Hampton Manor with future wife. Eddie Brick (I believe) singing this and us dancing to it. He was amazing!
Fantastic, very memorable for the singing, and for this video specifically, the random use (only time I have seen this by the way) of a laundry basket as a video prop.
An absolute blast from yester year can’t stop singing it 👏👍🍻
Beaming across Lake Huron on the BIG 8 CKLW this song owned Summer beach transistors.......
Love this song so much,’ even though I was in my dads plums,’ when this song came out!!!!
Fantastic song❤️
I saw a commercial and heard this song... I felt like I've heard it before.
And just searched "follow me I'm" that's all I had.
And found it!
I was born in '66
Super Bowl Traeger commercial??? Lol that's where I heard it😀
I was born in 65
@@cheriecraighead1502
I was born in 1957 and was scheduled for the USMC boot camp at Paris island. The war ended when I graduated high school. I did a U turn and became a Southeast Alaska logger for 25 years. I was so happy.
I have the original 45, plus is other single you were on my mind
Blessed to have Dylan in my lifetime. He Blessed bo question ❤
Lovely video to a great tune
Different times...
