I know he'd just turned 62, but in my mind's eye, I'll always see him just like this-beautifully sweet-faced and looking just like an angel. Sweet Ian-RIP!!
@@christinacrowley3631 me too. I used to lay on my bed & cry to this when Ian left the group. I was lucky enough to meet him in 2007, & 2008. He was a sweetheart. I had a stack of things for him to sign including a Rosetta Stone album. He called me love and kissed my cheek! I felt like I was 12 again! RIP Ian. You are greatly missed & always will be. 💘 🌈
I know! And I think back to those days and, as a 10/11-year-old, he seemed so grown up! The professionalism and poise of ALL those young men is a testament to the talent and integrity that not many seemed to notice.
Where did the years go? I was 12. I never would've imagined that one day I would end up sitting on my porch alone in the middle of the night, crying uncontrollably, because this beautiful man has passed away. Dear God, you took him too soon....why do those who are so special pass away too soon?
Shocked today, 2/9/2020, to learn of the passing of Ian Mitchell. Far too young at 62 years. May he fly high with the Angels. My thoughts are with his family.
Amen. As a 10 year old at the time I thought this young man was the most perfect human I’d ever seen. I love music. Thank you Ian and thank you Rollers again. For the absolute best times of my life.
I remember the Rollers performing this song live in Atlanta in 1976, and it gave me goosebumps then. Ian had that sweet Irish voice. If I remember correctly, people actually stopped screaming to listen to him sing.
I still can't believe this beautiful man is gone. I'll always remember how truly happy he looked when he was performing! I especially oved watching him during the later years, it was so obvious how much he enjoyed playing and singing!
I give Ian so much credit . He walked into that roller coaster of a job, at age 17... Nailed this song perfectly... Acted with a lot of poise and dignity on TV ... No ego trips... Got out when it was too crazy . Very cool guy and talented .
RIP Ian, Very sad to hear the news today. I adored you when you joined the Bay City Rollers. THANK YOU for the great memories. Very sad you are gone but Alan is waiting for you with open arms. Your in good hands now.
The years have flown by for all of us. It is incredibly sad Ian is not here to enjoy his legacy. This song brings back happy memories of a young girls dream. Ian play on endlessly …
Every so often, I come back to this video and just watch it. They just looked so happy and carefree. Hopefully they were. I just loved them so very much. I love their expressions in this video and everything about it. Wendy, if you ever come back here, give us a shout out.
I had forgotten what a great song this is and what a great singer ian mitchell was. So sad that he died so young. RIP ian, alan and les and thankyou for the precious memories💜
Awesome song Ian rest peace U always have a place in my heart love you and rollers big part in my life. Brought up on this when no one else's cared I would get though Life listening to them so sad lost Alan and Les too I will keep listening till I go thanks rollers fan forever 🥰🥰👍👍😍😍
I had completely forgotten about this gem of a song. My sister had some albums by these guys. She was 4 years older than me . The music she listened to back them was a big influence on me. I always loved this when I was 10 or 8 and it still sounds good and unique
I had the chance to meet Ian about 6 years ago or so in Phoenix AZ. He was performing at a club and sang Dedication. It was my birthday and it was so special. I'll never forget you ❤
I was so in love with you Ian when I was young. And hearing you left us has broke my heart. I will always remember you as an important piece of my childhood. Love you Ian
@@ladylyrichere9373 I know. Unfortunately, I only learned of his death now, when I read about Les's death. It was a shock not to have known this before.
Dear Ian Thank you for giving me such amazing memories. Your smile is like that of an angel's.I still can't believe you are not here any more....Rest in Peace💙
I LOVED Ian's voice and he was my favourite! I loved all the BCR ... everyone of them so cute in his own way, but you always have faves! Was devastated when he left the band so soon, but loved them and always will!
My husband always blah blahs about the video quality on this one...but to me, it's perfect. I love the vibe with the rhythmic clapping and swaying, and sweet little Ian singing his heart out. I'm not sure we'll ever see this level of peace at a popular music event in today's world. RIP Ian, Les, and Alan. You will forevermore be missed. 💜
God Bless you Ian Mitchell...RIP...How much I loved you!! I am so thankful to have met you a few times and your were always so nice, thank for signing all my stuff.
To think that Ian was only 17 when he joined the Rollers. Really - just a baby !! I was so, so, SO in love with him. I was 15 then ... and I just cried and cried to the point of hysteria when he left the band after only a few months. Being a Roller fan is one of my VERY few good memories of my teen years !
I know he'd just turned 62, but in my mind's eye, I'll always see him just like this-beautifully sweet-faced and looking just like an angel. Sweet Ian-RIP!!

SUCH SUCH GREAT MEMORIES!
It’s crazy I read this, I was thinking of saying the exact same thing
Loved this song. Miss those good ole days. To all of us 50 and 60 something's, remember the easy days. God bless all of us!
RIP Ian Mitchell September 1st 2020. You won't be forgotten.
So sad, too young😥🙏

Me too. And now Les.
I was 12 also and Ian was my favorite!
I loved this group as a teen, almost 50 years ago. Ian was my favorite especially singing this song.

Riposa pace💔💔💔
私は16歳の時に17歳のイアンに一目見て好きになりました❗
なんて可愛い男の子
こんな子がいるんだってびっくりしました。
忘れもしない日本に来日寸前にイアンがロ-ラ-ズから脱退したんです。
凄いショックで学校に遅刻して行ったら友達の前で泣いてしまいました。
本当にイアン好きだった。
イアンがこの世界にもういないなんて！
今度生まれ変われたならイアンと同じ国に生まれてイアンの友達でもよいので会いたい❗
今でも好きです‼️
Rest In Peace Ian Mitchell ...fabulous memories 🍀💚😭🎶🎸🍀🍀💚💚💚💚💚💐
Hello Bernie
To all the youngsters out there, here some solid music we were lucky enough to enjoy back in the '70s. RIP Ian.
Amen. As a 10 year old at the time I thought this young man was the most perfect human I’d ever seen. I love music. Thank you Ian and thank you Rollers again. For the absolute best times of my life.

Ian this was your song and we will always remember you. RIP our cutie pie 😢
Rest In Peace, Ian. You’ll live forever in our hearts. 🙏💔
RIP Ian, Allan and Les 😢
Ian,Thank you for your beautiful memory.
RIP.
Watching with sadness, RIP Ian
Ian, you will be missed. RIP.
当時イアンがボーカルのこの曲を何度も何度も繰り返し聞いていた。今イアンの歌う姿が見れるなんて幸せ！
外国の方ばかりのコメントの中で日本語のコメントを見付け、嬉しくなりコメント入れさせて頂きます。私もイアンのボーカルのこの曲をカセットテープがすり減るまで、何百回聴いた事でしょう。若くしてお亡くなりになり、惜しいと思ってた所に、レスリーも亡くなったとの事。本当に悲しく、寂しくなりました。
そのイアンの唄声ももう聴けないと思うと悲しくて‥
R. I.P Ian, l love your version of this song ever more.
I still can't believe this beautiful man is gone. I'll always remember how truly happy he looked when he was performing! I especially oved watching him during the later years, it was so obvious how much he enjoyed playing and singing!
Ian was just soooooo beautiful !! Was totally obsessed with him.
Sadly he passed away this week 😢
@@laurieblackerby3611 Whaaaaatttttt ?????
Just googled it. OMG - I'm so sad !!!
I give Ian so much credit . He walked into that roller coaster of a job, at age 17... Nailed this song perfectly... Acted with a lot of poise and dignity on TV ... No ego trips... Got out when it was too crazy . Very cool guy and talented .
I am grateful he escaped. It was such a wise decision for such a young man.
Such a young man at the time.i am glad he escaped before it got too crazy.
❤️ Ian
@@pennyduncan6861 但離開了BCR，有點懷才不遇，否則他名氣應該更大，好可惜！
Hard to believe he's been gone two years.
Missed very much
RIP Ian Mitchell. Long live our memories & dedication to you. 😥 ❤
Another year without sweet Ian, remembering you on your birthday. Gone but not forgotten, forever in our ♥️ ♥️♥️

Feeling very blessed this is saved here on youtube. Ian was shining light that I will never forget. RIP 💕
Dedicate this to you, Ian. Gods speed. You were loved and will be missed.
This song deserved a bigger push. It's really the type of song that should be on the radio today with other classics. Rip Ian
I was so crazy in love with him...broke my heart when he left the group...rest in peace Ian...❤

Ian does fantastic and Les seems pleased to sing back up! 🥰😘❤😍
イアン・ミッチェルが亡くなっていたなんて・・昨日、レスが亡くなったと聞き、初めて知りました💧
イアンが歌う、このDedicationの切なさに引き込まれて、友達たちとBCRにはまっていたあの時。
今は違う意味で、切ないです💧
いくにはまだ早すぎるよ・・イアン、レスリー。
どうか安らかに。。切なく悲しいけど・・素晴らしいMusicを思い出をありがとう❤
Always loved Ian on lead vocals for this song
Ian seemed a little nervous at first, but I think he did a fantastic job on this one.
RIP Ian. You were and will always be my favorite Roller. 😢
