I'm at that age (65) where I truly understand the meaning behind this song and want to weep.
Thankfully, I've managed to achieve some of my wildest dreams, a writer and journalist...
Still...this song and the people who have left us...this song..
Things are never that bad, friend. I heard this when I was 5. I'm 61. I believe it was an old Polish folk song. Cheers.
I am an old person too, 64, this song makes me feel happy. She is such a pretty woman, she has a beautiful voice, I can't believe I was only 9 years old when she sang it. Good memories.
I'm a young person but I want you to know you're never too old to achieve whatever you want ❤
Every time I hear this i cry- with ot without tears... I LOVE THIS SENTIMENTAL SONG MY DAD LOVED! 😂
@@user-hp8my2hp1y
What a sweet and encouraging comment. 😇
I am 85 yrs. Old. Memories of me and my army buddies hanging out at Georges in Erlangen germany with our german girl friends. Those were the days.
I'm 85, memories too many but great
😅😅😅
Großpapa? Bist that Du?
i truly belive those were the days..
Thank you for your service sir. You are loved more than you know. God bless!
She had more talent and showed a lot more class than ANY of today's enrertainers.
The older I get, the more I cry when I hear this. A beautiful song.
No vulgar dress or language just pure beautiful talent.Those were the days no doubt.
Are mini-skirts really any shorter now than in the 1960s?
Clean.
Look at old videos of female singers, compare the way they dressed them and now.
OK... in the 1960s Tina Turner and her dancers looked pretty much the same as Beyonce and her dancers do. You must have missed that entire decade. Google Proud Mary by Ike and Tina Turner.
Who is Beyonce?That must not be my type of listing music.
My holocaust survivor grandparents both loved this song. I grew up hearing them sing this. They have sinced passed and hearing this brings up fond memories.
Песня русских эмигрантов.
The lyrics are completely different, they are not an Eglish translation or the Russian lyrics, and the music itself was changed to fit the English lyrics. It's been altered enough for two songs to be completely seperate things.
@JLM1883 after the war they moved to NY. It's possible they knew the original Russian version but I'm referring to the fact that I heard them singing the English version :)
@@jiggajewjay Конечно, знали.
No question about it, no gimmicks, just pure raw talent.
Those were good days. Why cann't we make beautiful songs like this today?
Politics
That's probably right. Tge campaign finance bribery system allowed the large corpirate buyout of the radio stations where unknown talented songs like this are not heard. Oliver Anthony's song has been boycotted by the radio and there's a strong alliance between the corporate radio and the record companies. Where one won't stand up to the other. Like you tube and the universal corporation.
Do your best to make better memories as you go.
Artists of today want instant gratification and notice. Every young black man ( it seems) considers hi.self gifted to be the next big rap star. I listen objectively but no. They almost always have zero talent and yet they think the are the goods!
Those were the days was a cover of a very old Russian song...
I am 79 and have just listened to this song again having been around when it was originally released in the 60s.. It still sends tingles down my spine! A great song well executed by a wonderful and beautiful singer.
That's amazing. I am 39 and just found this song yesterday. Go figure lol. Have a good day man.
The original from Russia is still good!
Hey Mr Peter Lewis. Greetings from South Africa. I'm 64 and loving this music. Hell yes. I'll live my life to the fullest. When I die ill be in awe of the future. I lived my entire life without thinking about death,until now😮
@@ivayloivanov7231Sure, but English text and perfomance is the best one among all versions of this song😊
@@dmitriysmirnov9084 Yep. Its very very rare a cover of a song to be better than original!
Shout out to anyone enjoying this beautiful music of yesterdays.
This song was broadcasted so much on the radio. A song that wouldn't leave my head. The music and Mary Hopkin singing over and over that I would begin to sing it. Believe it or not I can still sing the song correctly! Amazing!
You don't forget this kind of music! At the age of 66 it brings back happier days that were carefree and worry free.
Автор музыки русский композитор Борис Фомин, 1924 год.
You're SO RIGHT!!! IT NEVER LEAVES YOUR HEAD after you hear it!!!
Same here in Cph
I to remember and love this song. Can remember singing along to it on my little red transistor radio, under the covers, when I should have been sleeping not listening to radio Caroline. 😊
@@Sofasurfa
The song is unforgettable and infectious (in a good sense).
I think what you did many did, including me.
Enjoy your summer.
😊👍❤
Still listening this song in 2023. Mary’s voice is really amazing and stunning☺️
Umur saya 14 th saat pertama mendengar lagu ini, sekarang umur saya 69th ..perasaan baru kemari sore
Try again Seda

My Mother ( God rest her Russian soul ) loved Mary Hopkins - Not everyone knows that the melody is a Russian folk song ( the road is long )
I sounds Russian, and it certainly is a very beautiful song. I hear Paul McCartney wrote the lyrics to it.
У этой песни есть автор Борис Фомин 1924 год . По удивительном совпадению песня посвящена певице по имени Мария.
Позже появилась версия Вертинского и лишь потом слова на английском Раскина.
You are totally right!!! I just listened to the russian one. Thanks
@@JSB103 No, Gene Raskin, a folksinger with Russian roots, wrote the lyrics. Paul McCartney was responsible for seeing the potential, getting it, Mary Hopkin, and Apple Music together, and marketing it.
@@user-ct3en7kv6e Translation of this comment: This song has an author Boris Fomin 1924. By an amazing coincidence, the song is dedicated to a singer named Maria.
Later, Vertinsky’s version appeared, and only then Raskin’s words in English.
This brings me back to the days when I was a soldier masquerading as Santa Claus and giving presents to political inmates in a stadium in Equatorial Guinea on Christmas Day 1969.
that's what brought me here
🤝
Where have all these good days gone? The 60s and 70s were such great days
So were the 80s en maybe the 90s also. And after the millennium everything went wrong: wrong leaders with their wrong beliefs and power, influx of masses of violent people, loss of cultural values. Even music is not as good as before.
@@ooooiiooooamen brother!
So we're the 50s.But it's so long ago.I can't remember a song ........😂😂😂maybe Annette Mills singing "I like muffin the Mule"
Go.Annette 🙏😂🇬🇧
Meanwhile in Equatorial Guinea on Christmas Eve 1969.
Couldn't agree with you more, 1960's to early 1990's was great til digusting/condescending/nasty/racist rap and most hip hop music dominated and corrupted generations after 1996.
WHAT A FANTASTIC SERVICE RUclips HAS DONE BY RESTORING THE SONGS FROM THE TIMES WHEN YOU COULD UNDERSTAND THE WORDS.
I LIVE IN VIETNAM AND DRIVE ALL OVER THE COUNTRY PLAYING THESE GOLDEN OLDIES, OFTEN IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT.
Not sure why you think RUclips restored this.

@daklakdigital3691 They sure have it's great listening now to what was
popular then. How the years have flown...
Why are you yelling
75 now and grew up listening to the so called British music invasion and Mary Hopkins became my instant crush then. I love her beauty, demure personality and her lovely angelic voice. ❤
I'm 54 and English, and only just discovering what a sham the British invasion of US was. I could give a clue but I must respect your age. It's something we must learn only if we care to do so. I agree with you about Mary, my parents played this song on record player when I was very small and I still love this tune.
OMG my oldest sister Sue LOVED this song. RIP Sue.
1968-I was 16 years old. Great music, burgers, shakes- Now it's lousy music and kale salads, although I admit eating healthily is a lot easier now and is the way to go. I was blessed to have my childhood in the 50's and 60's. It's getting mighty strange out there now.
you def were lucky !! i’m turning 17 in 2022 and it just is no fun ... :(
@@ash5779 You will have to look internally ----------- & not externally. I wish you well -- on your journey.
To the seventeen year don't give up tomorrow will be better I thought the same at your age now I'm 72 with 3 beautiful grandchildren and contented ❤love from Ireland 🇮🇪
No pretence - natural and with such an angelic voice. I still love it after all these years.
Reminds me of fun times down at a football stadium in central africa back in the late 60’s.
LMAO I just got here from wikipedia reading about this 😂😂
I see what you did here!! December of 1969 was wonderful memories.
What a fun Christmas eve that was. I still have my Santa hat!
So edgey. Our sweet summer child found the extremist rabbit hole. See you on the news someday.
I'm 71 and still listen to this song on SA Texas radio station "KONO 86.1AM...".🎼🎵🎶🎼🎵🎶🎼🎵🎶💯💛💛
Numerically, 86.1 indicates an FM channel.
In 1968 I was 9. I remember listening to this song on the radio. Have always been a music lover & 50's & 60's music are among my most favorites.
I was 13, we should email, we could share plenty of nostalgia, tears, memories and water under the Bridge
Right there with you, now i got to watch the Monkeys!
I was 9 in 1968 too .. hi
"Oh my friend we're older but no wiser; for in our hearts the dreams are still the same"
"...we never though they'd end." She has no idea just how true that is. I was in my teens when that came out and now 75. Just when did THAT happen!?
❤
Turn around and it happened. It's hard to see that things are changing and all of a sudden it does.
Scary I know,😮

Mary had a beautiful voice. Notice that singers back then did not rely on computer enhanced gimmicks or anything else. Their talent carried them. Obviously, talent was better back then.
It was dubbed.
@@AR-cp5dz yes it was lip synced. But George is right. These days computers are commonly used to substitute for vocal ability.
But they were REAL musicians then, and they could actually sing. Not the monotone screamers of nowadays.
@@AR-cp5dz But they dubbed their OWN voice.
DEFINITELY NO AUTOTUNE!
I'm 61. I love this song and my sister too. She had passed away but I'm still listening to the song.
Mary was the only singer my dad ever listened to. He wanted me to be like her. Miss those days.
brings back memories from 1970
im so sorry
@@aromaseawater1492And I'm sure you turned out far better than that!
I believe this song goes back a long way . .
My dad used to tear up when he'd hear this song, so many years ago. Then, I didnt understand why he was emotional...Now I do.
I’m feeling it too…

This was my father's favorite song in 1970. I've heard this 1000 times before I was 10. Thanks for sharing the memories ~*
As a child I remember hearing this and not understanding what it was about. As I get older, more and more of the pieces are falling into place...
20yo in 1968, 75yo now...oh yes 55 yrs ago...long gone now.

And ... tomorrow died You 😂😂
Mary Hopkin was an excellent singer. And a very beautiful lady
YES!! Stunning!
Is.
I wonder if she's related to 'Eve' on "Last Man Standing" They could pass for identical twins .
And a very beautiful voice as well
Beautiful voice and facade, what a combination.
I'm from Russia. Why have I known this song since childhood, although I have never listened to it)))
Another commentor said the music is an old Russian folk song. 😊
Ехали на тройке с бубенцами.Где ещё такое могло быть, как не у нас в России?
First time I saw Mary Hopkin I think she is a living doll, she is very beautiful.
She's an angel, all right. And what a sweet, pure voice.
This is the
" it sucks getting old " anthem.
I was sitting in a honkey in Chicago in 1969 having some beers, I was 20 with phony ID's. Old guy sitting next to me asked me how old I was, I lied and said 22, he then said to me " gona tell you one thing and remember it forever, getting old is not for SISSIS", I am now 75 and remember that day like it was yesterday!
@@dc10fomin65wow, amazing story! What's 'SISSIS', if I may ask?
kind of like the much later Bowling for soup ,, getting old sucks song
In the old days that meant " a gay guy", in today's crazy politically correct world who knows?
@@frankwalker5921A sissy is a wimp, so it's like saying "Getting old is not for the faint hearted"
What a song!The young generation will soon find out,Mary Hopkin,you are the best
This wonderful song is so true. As you get older, you realise how true it is
No gimmick's just a good singer and a mike, with a live band no gimmick's, real music
Every good singer should have a Mike 😂
@@Mike8981Meoww Mike
This song is for any generation it takes you back to your youth.
All we can do is listen to your talent, from a time that never comes back!
People say that she hates the song but she doesn’t! Her voice is so elegant and beautiful as always. As she grew older, her voice is the same as she was so young and that’s a talent!
Song we can relate to
Lovely song words
Эту песню написал советский композитор Борис Иванович Фомин в 1924 г., и в СССР и России она известна, как "Ехали на тройке с бубенцами" или "Дорогой длинною" А Джин Раскин в 1962 г. ее совсем немного изменил, и зарегистрировал на себя.
Композитора посадили, автора текста загнобили до смерти за невовремя поданную декларацию. Режим "отблагодарил" авторов!
Раскин как положено добавил в нее еврейских нот 😂

Welsh Mary still.llooks classy and untouched 🙏🥰🇬🇧
They removed the second verse of the song from this live arrangement, which mentions she and her friends having lost their starry notions while the years went rushing by. The emotional impact of the song is greatly diminished when this verse is removed. When this recording first came on the radio in 1968 and 1969, I remember its emotional impact was so strong it could make me cry. Listening to the radio in 1968, and 1969, all I can say is, those were the days.
I agree...
absolutely!!!
Then the busy years went rushing by us
We lost our starry notions on the way
If by chance I'd see you in the tavern
We'd smile at one another and we'd say
Lots of these shows edited songs for time, or they thought the audience had short attention spans.
I think the edited version works quite well. In it, you get more of an impression of the speaker and her friend meeting for the first time since their youth - and this impression moves me. (I agree that the omitted verse is a good verse.)
Bing Crosby sings all four verses of the song - as does Hopkin in her original recording. But he shifts what is the second verse in Hopkin’s recording to the fourth verse position. I can see why he does this. But no order seems right to me.
Once upon a time you could get famous with your vocals without being half naked! Love it
I agree. Let's go back to real music.
not true, wearing a mini skirt was being half-naked in the 60s and 70s. Just because it seems innocent today it does not mean that was always the case. To me it doesn't take anything from the sond or artist either way.
Yeh but unfortunately not as famous as people are getting now. These people deserved it way more :(
you can still do that lol
We're the wonderful days it's never came back
no it's only gets woyce and woyce 😉
For sure those were the days and I thought they would never end.
In those days we thought that we were invincible
POV: you hear this song:
- in the radio 🙂
- in a footbal Stadium 🌚🌚
SHE'S BEAUTIFUL AND WHAT A BEAUTIFUL VOICE! LUV THE LYRICS!
懐かしい、当時は日本中に流れていましたね。私の青春時代の思い出の曲です。
This brings a lump to my throat. What a beautiful voice she had and what a great song and rhythm. It takes me back to my youth!
In those days of1968, it was a good time to be 12, as I was.
You're my age

It was also a good time to be two, as I was.
You’re 10yrs older than me 😮
It was an even better time to be 20 we were the blessed generation and the average man could buy a house those were the days
A 20 year old singing "Those were the days"? I loved hearing this on the radio when I was 10 years young in 1969.
Pergunta ele qual e a Estação 😅📻 Act #
Was radio from Equatorial Guine in a footbal Stadium?
Oh boy haven't heard this for more than 50 years. What a gorgeous girl and lovely rendition. Proof that BLONDES are defynightly NOT DUMB !
How did this create special homosẹxụạI rights !
When this came out i was 5 months away from being drafted in the Army. A year from this time i was in Vietnam. What a beautiful young women and great singer. As i now look back. I guess those were the good old days.
This is a haunting rendition of a song that makes us relive our youth
My favourite song..who likes old songs

The 70s were the best!
Song was from 68.....70s great thou

@@jesse2375 I had my hand sized radio under my pillow when going to sleep this song stands out and also bohemian rhapsody and seasons in the sun 😁
Wonderful voice and song by her. I remember that song back in my young days. She was a beautiful talented and a feminine women with class. Too many of the young women today are anything but that. Blue green, red ,hair, tats all over,piercings overweight and slutty.
Glad i grew up meeting young women like Mary. I feel sorry for young men today.
A happy, nostalgic song that seems to refer to another, older happy times!!
POV: You heard this song on January 24, 1969 in Equatorial Guinea:
"Eyy It's Santa, what's he holding? oh wait there's more of them."
I am 84 and I still enjoy this song to which I think most of us can relate because those were the days we thought the'd never end we are all different now, older, better, wiser I hope - thank you Mary Hopkin
She as beautiful as her voice.
This song was a hit when I was 4 years old yet I still remember it well. Always loved it's old world feel. Great performance by Mary.
I was 5. Grandma would play this 45 on the old console record player!
I remember this song from my childhood. Do you know the year it was popular?
I was 4 too, behind the iron curtain in Hungary... but of course this song was a big hit here as well!

I can remember the first time I heard this song. It was on this Ed Sullivan show. We were at my Aunts home and my Uncle Hugh went to the piano and played the song by just hearing it for the first time. At the time I didn't think it that unusual, but now I truly see Hugh's talent.
Just love this song and Mary Hopkins ❤❤❤

Wow, this girl has natural beauty and a wonderful feminine voice❤❤
My cousin passed away the night i saw she sing this on TV. She was 21 and looked like Mary with strawberry blonde hair
I am so sorry! Why did she die so young? Best regards! This one and the russian original version are very beautiful.
Life has no turning back😢.
Those were the days where singers were praised for their melodious voice. Unlike today’s era where all there is… is too much dependence on auto-tune and computer softwares to change their voice, seduction, excessive skin and flesh rather than music, what a hedonistic society we have become.
Mary Hopkins was on The Beatle's Apple Records. This song was produced by Paul McCartney.
Reached #2, but held back from #1 by The Beatles "Hey Jude".
Back then, I thought it was Paul's composition given to Mary & when I read it at Wikipedia it was a melody from a Russian classic. Darn, I was wrong through all those years !
@@ravenbonanza1522 He wrote her other hit "Goodbye"...as if he didn't have his hands full writing all those masterpieces with the Fabs lol
I have the record on the Apple label with the McCartney production credit along with a description of how he discovered her. I think the point of Apple was to find unknown talent. Its a nice keepsake.
You spelled her name wrong. It's Hopkin, not Hopkins.
those were the days when there was no autotune but simply vocal talent.
No autotune but still they put effects on vocals.
I grew up in Waterbury Connecticut Lisa the songs I was listening to when I was a young kid with my friends and that was during the Vietnam war and everything you know going on in the world love peace and happiness
at 78 looking back where has pour youth gone
How did we go from singers with talent and classy style to singers with attitude and booty these days
Дорогой длинною, да ночкой лунною,
Да с песней той, что в даль летит, звеня,
Да со старинною, да семиструнною,
Что по ночам так мучила меня.
This is the original chorus's lyrics first recorded by Alexander Vertinsky in 1926.
Ловко украли и забыли сказать у кого, написали new lyrics and nobody knows original ones were so nice.
Just a beautiful song about life !
I think I will move to England. Their singers are wonderful. Beautiful with a perfect voice.
This was 55 years ago, everything is crap now now matter where you go!
I enjoyed this song years ago, but never knew that Paul McCartney produced it 🤩👏
I wish everyday we had those days again
1968, those were the very best days and 53 years later this timeless classic can still force out a tear! Thank you very much for posting this great version.
