Because, as an Irish boy 4 years old, living in Ireland, I started to form my first impressions of Australia a mystical land far away! Even at that age I had heard about war, I had a younger brother and some friends, this song let me imagine what it would be like if I lost my brother or my friends! 😢
Was one of the biggest selling songs of 1969, spending a month at no.1, was regularly played on radio stations throughout the 1970s and most of the 80s
Always reminds me of the old James Stewart film Shenadoah...when his youngest son meet his old friend on the battlefield...and they are on opposite sides.
@@soys8834HAHAHAHAHA yes indeed. But listen, my entire childhood an a big chunk of my youth was filled with his songs. I knew many of them by heart already back then in the 70’s as a child. It’s like if your own dad (heaven forbid) was that pedo, and you disassociate yourself from him, you would still be sad when he’s gone. Pardon the analogy. Just making a point
Despite his crimes, this was a very emotive song about brother hood and leaving no one behind. It was part of my life growing up. We can't change History, nor should we cancel it.
I used to sing this to my two sons at bedtime. They were 18 months apart. Always thought of this man in high regard growing up. So sad it turned out as it did 😢
Ok, do you throw out the art because the artist has disappointed you or has erred? Sinatra had mob links and was a prick to those he didn't fawn over or who weren't famous, but it doesn't mean Sinatra wasn't a brilliant performer and recording star.
I'm conflicted here - I grew up thinking this man was a legend, a kind and gentle bloke, an illusion which was crushed in some way but at the same time, this is a beautiful song, very moving :(
It's still a fantastic song which you can forever cherish. In the exact same way it's possible to enjoy the wonderful novel that is "The Picture of Dorian Gray" without condoning the seedier aspects of its author's lifestyle.
@@bigverybadtom I'm aware of that and thanks. Sometimes an artist who didn't pen a tune can become the one most associated with it especially if he/she trumps the original version. A case in point might be Whitney Houston's "I will always love you," which spent much longer in the number one spot than Dolly Parton's original. I grew up with Rolf's version of this wonderful tune as did a lot of the posters on this video and it still means as much to me now as it did when I was in primary school. Take care.
Darwin, Australia, 'bout Feb/Mar, 1976. Cyclone Tracy had wrecked the place. Rolf was doin' a show in the Botanic gardens, Darwin was rooted!. Dead set, Rolf Harris owned us that night. I was 'bout 20'FT from him, he put on a bloody brilliant show. He took every single man away from wrecked houses, cars, dead people, heat, humidity, sweat, fuckin' mossies, no women, not all bad though, we still had cold beer. Then he sang 'Two Little Boys". Dead set, not a dry eye in the house. Then,
Was in Darwin as a child left 2 weeks before cyclone Tracey remember it well ,it's 1 am woke up wth the song in my head loved it back then love it now miss my dad singing this to me teary as . Thanks for the memories x
Nice comment Christy, same in my family with my grandad, ignore the moron, when he has to pay his own bills instead of relying on mummy maybe he'll realize that being an arsehole costs nothing except his self-respect...I won't hold my breath though.
@RUclipsINCLUSIVITYWHATAJOKE In any case, this is a Rolf Harris cover and not a composition. Rolf Harris never served in the military if what I read is true.
I remember my brother and I singing this beautiful song when we were both 6 & 5 respectively. It brings a tear to my eye as my younger brother is now dead. So sad !!!! So sad!!!!!!
Two Little Boys Rolf Harris Two little boys had two little toys Each had a wooden horse Gaily they played each summer's day Warriors both of course One little chap then had a mishap Broke off his horse's head Wept for his toy then cried with joy As his young playmate said Did you think I would leave you crying When there's room on my horse for two Climb up here Jack and don't be crying I can go just as fast with two When we grow up we'll both be soldiers And our horses will not be toys And I wonder if we'll remember When we were two little boys Long years had passed, war came so fast Bravely they marched away Cannon roared loud, and in the mad crowd Wounded and dying lay Up goes a shout, a horse dashes out Out from the ranks so blue Gallops away to where Joe lay Then came a voice he knew Did you think I would leave you dying When there's room on my horse for two Climb up here Joe, we'll soon be flying I can go just as fast with two Did you say Joe I'm all a-tremble Perhaps it's the battle's noise But I think it's that I remember When we were two little boys Do you think I would leave you dying There's room on my horse for two Climb up here Joe, we'll soon by flying Back to the ranks so blue Can you feel Joe I'm all a tremble Perhaps it's the battle's noise But I think it's that I remember When we were two little boys Songwriters: Alan Braden / Edward Madden / Theodore Morse
I can't help but feel nostalgic for this song! Rolf Harris (who passed away recently at 93) was undeniably a talented entertainer, and it's such a shame that our memories of him are now tarnished! ... Ditto Jimmy Sa-vile! ... Why do such people wilfully ruin their own reputations? It's so sad, but let's not forget their victims!
One of my only claims to fame was singing this song as part of a school choir festival at Town Hall in Sydney in the early 80's. I still remembered most of the words, too.
Arguably one of the most famous Australian singers who wasn't in Neighbours or Home and Away, until his arrest for unmentionable crimes a few years back.
this had to be the biggest shock of all. It just shows how clever and manipulative Harris was over the years. He deserves to spend the rest of his life in jail. My heart goes out to his wife and family
Me and my best friend. We grew up together and my grandpa showed me this song as a kid and one night drinking. Me and my best friend who was a brother to me. We listened to this song and joked how this was us. He died a month later in a car accident. I listen to it every now and then and try to remember how it was when we were two little boys sharing Xbox controllers. I miss him
For all that has happened it has nothing to do with the fact that Rolf was Englands no. 1 entertainer for many years. I'm saddened by this issue but wonder how many more are there in the wings. I shall not stop listening to the music because of this.
Im the same as everyone i grew up listening n watching him on tv to this day i still listen to this now he,s past i see people ridiculing him for his wrong doings and yet you dont see the same thing every year Michael Jackson has passedfor all his wrong doing for the same thing , just saying
Met Lord Rolf twice. Once when I was a nipper and all he asked me was if I told my mummy and daddy everything. Met him again when I was uni, he was having a sing-song on a train. When I refused to sing the 4th verse of Tie Me Kangaroo Down he cornered me in the lavs and thread to jam him bacon butty up me jacksie, and the look in his eye let me know he’d have enjoyed it. Still great cartoons and a gent.
My mum use to sing this to me when I was a kid and when I grew up I had twin boys and I left Australia 🇦🇺 to live in Canada 🇨🇦 as a departing gift 🎁 she had two little wooden rocking hoses made for the twin boys for them to take to Canada 🇨🇦 with us and it so reminded me of this beautiful song as I was only a young girl when I fist heard it sung to me by my mother
I heard Harris talking about the time this song was presented to him. He said to the dude, "ok, play it." As the guy was singing the first verse, Rolf was thinking, "eh, yeah, nice ditty; whatever; eh, maybe, I dunno", but when the guy sang the "did you think I would leave you dying when there's room on my horse for two?", Harris said it really grabbed him emotionally and made all the hairs on his back stand up.
And if he died earlier we would never have known. disappointed is an understatement. But I say this, relatives older that have passed loved this song. As fked up as he is, this song will hold a place. Now I just try to forget the guy singing it.
I was canoeing down a river today and passed 2 fishermen and started singing this at them. Although they laughed I feel bad about it now. The song came into my mind when my mate made me slow down for them. lol
Little Asian Penis Well, who says? You don't think Adolf Hitler's paintings are collectable? Wasn't he mainly a grab n feel merchant? I haven't heard he raped anybody.

Just so you know he didn’t write the song. It was written for WW1. "Two Little Boys" is a song written by American composer Theodore F. Morse and lyricist Edward Madden. It was written in 1902. This song has nothing to do with what he did.
when i was 15, someone close to me died of brain cancer and an aneurysm. he took care of me. he was a twin. this was played at his funeral. i’m an adult now. i’ve been trying to find this song for ages. RIP R, hope you’re doing okay if there’s some sort of afterlife
It has an interesting back story. This was actually a song that was sung to RH by an native Aboriginal. when he was about to do a show on TV he decided to use this song but couldn't remember the lyrics so called Australia to his Aboriginal friend to sing it again and then went out and performed it live on TV. It was a song from the Victorian era that was taught to the natives and passed down over time

Two Little Boys
Rolf Harris
Two little boys had two little toys
Each had a wooden horse
Gaily they played each summer's day
Warriors both of course
One little chap then had a mishap
Broke off his horse's head
Wept for his toy then cried with joy
As his young playmate said
Did you think I would leave you crying
When there's room on my horse for two
Climb up here Jack and don't be crying
I can go just as fast with two
When we grow up we'll both be soldiers
And our horses will not be toys
And I wonder if we'll remember
When we were two little boys
Long years had passed, war came so fast
Bravely they marched away
Cannon roared loud, and in the mad crowd
Wounded and dying lay
Up goes a shout, a horse dashes out
Out from the ranks so blue
Gallops away to where Joe lay
Then came a voice he knew
Did you think I would leave you dying
When there's room on my horse for two
Climb up here Joe, we'll soon be flying
I can go just as fast with two
Did you say Joe I'm all a-tremble
Perhaps it's the battle's noise
But I think it's that I remember
When we were two little boys
Do you think I would leave you dying
There's room on my horse for two
Climb up here Joe, we'll soon by flying
Back to the ranks so blue
Can you feel Joe I'm all a tremble
Perhaps it's the battle's noise
But I think it's that I remember
When we were two little boys
Songwriters: Alan Braden / Edward Madden / Theodore Morse

I feel guilty because I love this song so much.
You're a silly billy. A great song, is a great song. End Of.
You do know Rolf Harris didn't write this song?
It's an Old Music Hall song.
@user-kz4ke8mg4r But it's an old music hall song and it was an old song even when Rolf Harris did it.
Even though he was terrible person that doesn't mean we can't still like his music. Gary Glitter and Michael
Jackson were also peadophiles yet their music was still great.
there are still people alive who protected these people
Here to read the comments. 🧐
This is a nice song.
I got this sung to me as a child. I still luv u rolph
Omg you love a pedophile. How disgusting
This song always makes me cry. Let down by my parents
Briiliant tune - End OF !
I met him once and told him I remember him doing two little boys in the 1970s. He glared at me and said that was Garry Glitter
Or Jonathan King. But anyway, you should be glad he didn’t burst some white stuff on your face.
RIP Rolf Harris (1930-2023)
One of my childhood songs! With my big brother Jim
"Two little boys had two little toys..." How did we not figure this out already?
Just so you know he didn’t write the song. It was written for WW1. "Two Little Boys" is a song written by American composer Theodore F. Morse and lyricist Edward Madden. It was written in 1902. This song has nothing to do with what he did.
SFL it was written about the boer war as ww1 would not begin for another 13 ish years
no comment!!!! x this is quality x
He tried to tell us all those years ago, there's room on his horse for 2 😢
The GM group of Bedford hold you in our hearts Rolf
when i was 15, someone close to me died of brain cancer and an aneurysm. he took care of me. he was a twin. this was played at his funeral. i’m an adult now. i’ve been trying to find this song for ages.
RIP R, hope you’re doing okay if there’s some sort of afterlife
Well you cant have looked very bloody hard.
Would R be Rolf himself,by any chance? 🤨
@@onlinefriend3889 no, why?
@@joedent3323 i couldn’t properly remember the lyrics, and i ended up with different songs
It has an interesting back story. This was actually a song that was sung to RH by an native Aboriginal. when he was about to do a show on TV he decided to use this song but couldn't remember the lyrics so called Australia to his Aboriginal friend to sing it again and then went out and performed it live on TV. It was a song from the Victorian era that was taught to the natives and passed down over time
Yeah thats bollocks mate. 2 little boys was Rolf trying to hide in plain sight
You won't be hearing it on the radio again!
Still if you want to line Rolf's pockets you can hear it on RUclips.
gut wrenching. my dear sons five treat your women with dignity they are the chalice from which you became. the art the artist and the underlying ethos of the artist that delivered the art.
