    He was my teacher in Portland primary school and as a class we was on the news as he just got noticed and decided to do music full time, he sang this song often to us in class. I always remember a school dance we had too, everyone paired up and had someone to dance with and I didn't, he saw me alone and danced with me. Forever in my heart Mr Landsborough. 🥰

    My Dad's favourite...
    He had this played at his funeral, didn't know how much he loved this track , kept it to himself, typical irish man .
    Brings me to tears every time.
    Playing it now on the 8th anniversary of his death ...
    Guess what ? I'm crying .

    I always think of my son (RIP) when I hear this song. He went blind when he was seven. 😔. I remember he heard a fire engine going past our car one day and he asked me “what colour is it Mum?” It was so sad, but I had to hold it all together so he wouldn’t realise how upset it made me feel that he couldn’t see it for himself. I always wished he could see all that Mother Nature had to offer. 😢. 🦋 🇦🇺 2019

    What colour is the wind, Daddy
    Is it yellow, red or blue
    When he's playing with my hair, Daddy
    Does he do the same to you
    When he's dying does his colour fade
    Is a gentle breeze a lighter shade
    Just like his friend the sea
    The wind feels blue to me
    When the blackbird starts to sing, Daddy
    Do the flowers hear him, too
    When he's pouring out his heart, Daddy
    Tell me, what do roses do
    Do they cast their scent upon the air
    And is fragrance just a rose in prayer
    Giving thanks to God above
    For the blackbird's song of love
    Blow, wind, blow Wild and free
    My Daddy saysYou're a lot like me
    I know each colour
    Its shape and size
    I've seen them all
    With my Daddy's eyes
    I know that grass is green Daddy
    I've touched it with my toes
    and snow is pure as white daddy
    I've felt it with my nose
    but my favourite colour, has to be the colour of your love for me
    and daddy I've been told that love is always gold
    blow wind blow, wild and free
    my daddy says your a lot like me
    my daddy says your a lot like me
    what colour is the wind?

    What a beautiful song sung with such feeling , it always reminds me of my beloved older son aged 44 who l lost 1 week after a tragic mishap, not of his making, in 2010. l cry everytime l hear it as l recall his young years when l spent so much time with him, teaching him colours and numbers as he handed me the pegs as l hung out the washing. Such a wonderful loving companion, and loyal son and friend.This song of Charlie,s will always remain a favorite, he seems a gentle, sensitive soul, just like my lovely natured son.

      Joe Doherty I remember Charlie when he sang on Thursday nights in the Pacific pub in Birkenhead. He tried Opportunity Knocks on British TV but got nowhere. Fair play to him he kept singing and this song got to number 2 in Ireland and earned him over 200K setting him up for the rest of his life really and the best of luck to him, it was well deserved. Ex teacher, nice guy.

      Just love this song, so poignant, and so beautiful.It reminds me of the wonderful relationship l had with my loving, beloved older son whose life was stolen away after a tragic mishap.Though not blind, l remember teaching him all about colours, plants and animals, clouds, so many things he loved throughout his life, he taught me a lot too. He died in 2010 aged 44, and l sorely miss him and talk to him every day, he was a wonderful companion, and l cannot hear this song without tears.I am his Mum, and l have learned that great love never ends, and that he still existed beyond this life we know, so l believe we will be together again, forever.
