I’m a 73 yr old, and I often shed tears for the late 60’s and 70’s. Nothing makes sense in this life anymore. I so miss my life and times. Everything going on now is horrible, and out of control in so many aspects. People have gone crazy. Just wish I could go back to my time zone. 😔
My husband and I were recently at a RV resort with our new travel trailer on the Colorado River in Arizona (to get away from the virus sadness) and a sweet older lady (I'm 64) requested this song to sing along...it made me cry for those wonderful years of the 60's/70's/80's...I don't recognize this life any longer...
Me neither...😥😥 I’m in my sixties ...where are the years gone... rushed by me so quick ...but I so want dr who to take me back to the sixties and seventies....the best ....

@@eleanorlean9130 I'm in my 60's also. I come here and enjoy all the great music of my young years and wonder where the time went, not only the time but the world I lived in. When I listen I am back with all my beloved Family members who are now gone. It's great we have RUclips to go back and remember.
Tears coming from me on his passing today. Cherished songs from a cherished childhood in the 60's. A simpler time . . . A beautiful time to grow up. Don't Let the Sun Catch You Crying was a beloved favorite of mine even as a child. Rest in beautiful peace, Gerry Marsden. 🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏
I certainly did as well Eddy, Gerry and the Pacemakers were a fine band and all of their songs are priceless. And they have stood the test of times as great anthems in a time when people made fine music. This is my testimonial to Gerry; good day to you.
From Glasgow. I visited Liverpool 21 yrs ago. Took the ferry across the mersey. Loved the song. They played both these songs over the loud speaker. I was in Liverpool heaven as I sailed towards Birkenhead, looking back at the Liver buildings. Grew up listening to Gerry and his band in the 60s and 70s. Fav song is Don't let the sun catch you crying. RIP Gerry PS Also attended Celtic v Liverpool UEFA Cup match at Celtic Park. The whole stadium sang YNWA along with him. Wonderful.
Like you, this song reminds me when I was a teenager. Was at a school dance, this song Don't let the Sun Catch you crying was playing. I was dancing with my boyfriend/my first true love not knowing that we would break up a few days later.
Blessings dear Gerry Marsden,for all the memories,I used to live in England,a long time ago now..and these songs take me back there....RIP..you’ll never walk alone...♥️😢🇨🇦
@Jack Lane...just read your post...I bought their album in about 1963-4...as a kid...great fidelity for it's time. Thanks, and sad for Gerry, but what a legacy!.
@@billtotten4162 Same for this 66 year old. I liked what one person wrote. His songs make us cry and smile, at the same time. I believe Gerry is now in a special place, and still bringing smiles. ✨
Wow, I imagine he has sung these songs forever, yet he seems to enjoy making people remember those wonderful days before America, and You and I lost our innocence....Thanks Gerry!
Two of my favourite songs from Merseyside in the sixties. Ferry cross the Mersey still played on the ferry and Dont let the sun catch you crying had no doubt comforted many going through a breakup. Liked the band here as well. Gerry has included some youthful musicians...am liking it. Shine on Gerry!
I used to play soccer /football down our street with Gerry in the 50s when he came to visit his cousin who lived a few doors away from me, we would be about 12 years old, a great guy
When I think of the 60s for myself I only ever think of one man Gerry Marsden, I loved all his songs and of course not forgetting the pacemakers, rest in peace Gerry Marsden my man from the 60s.
It is so sad to have lost so many of the stars from the British Invasion in recent years. To Chad Stuart, Spencer Davis, Gerry Mardsen, Freddie Garrity, Phil May, Wayne Fontana and so many other.....May you all Rest In Peace, with the knowledge of how much joy your music brought to the world and our thanks for so many wonderful memories of by gone days.
Gerry Marsden absolutely totally fantastic a man never to be forgotten a great Scouser so many beautiful memories of Liverpool football club never forgotten God love you God rest you Stephen Mitchell
We were damned lucky to grow up in those fabulous times. Brings a tear to my eye when I stop to remember it. Days that will never be again, not even close.
I so love the 60s. Why was i were not born in it. The period of music revolution. The songs back then not only sounds so pleasing to our hearts and mine but it also tells a story. How i wish.
I was born and brought up with gerry cilla and the beatles and it was a wonderfull time back then in liverpool were l come from. Lovely to remember those days
Don't let the sun catch you crying! You're not with us anymore and you will be missed! But we all should be eternally grateful for all the good music and good times you've given us! R.I.P. my friend!
Aye to that Peter, Gerry Marsden and his Pacemakers band were a huge favorite of mine in the sixties. We Americans greatly admired all your British bands, the Beatles in particular, and, of course, Gerry and his wonderful band. Liverpool indeed made a great contribution to popular music. My roots are in England and Northern Ireland; my grandfather Allen was born I Newcastle upon Tyne, and my great grandfather Joseph Johnson's father came from London to the States. A large part of why I like and admire the British bands, but mostly for the fine music they produce. And always been a great fan of the Animals, and Eric Burdon, who hailed from Newcastle as did my grandfather. Best regards.
You would as gerry would of stopped to talk to you. When you get the ferry from Birkenhead to Liverpool that what they play on in the back ground gerry never forgot his roots lovely man. Wil be sadly missed
a few years ago I saw Gerry at Beatlefest and he was fantastic as usual....I was sitting in the 6th row and singing along when he sang these two songs....what a thrill that was
I saw Gerry at the Bruce Mason Centre in Auckland NZ about 10 years a go. He brought the house down, he could barely hear himself sing as the entire audience joined him and gave it everything everything. Amazing, Wonderful.
oldies geek,again thank you for kind words.l have just my showed my brother what you said and he broke down as he did at the funeral.mum died 8 years ago but every time it's played on the radio it's hard not to weep,again thank you again so much.
Jerry and the Pacemakers reminds me when I was a little kid everybody been 8 years old and my brother took me on the ferry going from Staten Island he took me out there and we had quite an adventure and I could always hear Jerry and the Pacemakers, this songs are really amazing it captured the moment perfectly
one of the best songs ever! 1965 2nd year of high school, its funny can some songs can take you back to when every thing was good , my parents were alive my high school friends , now most of these people are gone. is so hard to relate to anything or anybody now
Thanks Gerry.You,Englebert and Ray Price have helped me be King of karaoke at the Moose Lodge.Ha Ha.I will be singing your songs this weekend.You are missed.
Sad to hear another of ours '60s music icons is gone. Gerry & the Pacemakers Greatest Hits is the first album I ever bought in 1965 at 11 years old. I still have it! Still remember how crisp the drummer Freddie Marsden was on It's Gonna Be Alright. R.I.P. Gerry!
Gerry and his band the pacemakers were so iconic and amazing. Gerry was amazing and a genuine guy who loved his home of Liverpool. S good. A good songwriter. She sorry to hear he has passed. RIP Gerry ,you will always be remembered. Thank you so very much for all you did with great band. From north England.

R.I.P.Gerry.....You'll Never Walk Alone.
The sun caught ME crying when I heard of Gerry's death. Say "Hi" to John and George for us. The 60's rocked!
So many genres of music were developed then.. truly something for everyone! 🥰
And Elvis.
..............and Fred and Chad too. R.I.P. to all with much thanks. Keep on Rockin'!

Gerry didn’t have to fake singing and screaming all hidden by loud drums and guitars, he was a natural.

I’m with you with the wonderful music from our childhood and the passing of the great singers
@@MsCocopuffy And we were too young to realize what was happening worldwide.
Now at 73 it becomes apparent that we were duped by the rotten cesspit that U.K. has become now, lying thief’s in suits.
I’m ashamed to be British.
what a beautiful orchestra backing gerry.
i grew up with this voice and as god stands it has not changed
I remember watching this on tv.... it was heartfelt listening to him sang both legendary songs. Sadly,,,music like this will never return.
Very sadly.
Gerry singing two of the most beautiful songs ever recorded!
ABSOLITELY.......THE BEST.
@@susanfurlong2002 agree!
R I P....to a great man who we grew up listening to the beautiful words.🥰🥰
I've loved Gerry Marsden since I was fourteen. Such a voice. Such a face!
He wrote songs that spoke about life and not only just girl loves boy songs. A true lover of life indeed.
STILL AMAZING VOICE AND A GREAT BACKUP BAND
