Was a wee , 5 year old back then,, born May 23rd 1968,, from northern Ireland UK, remember hearing this song,as a wee kid back then,! From northern Ireland UK 🤝
"I'd like to see the world for once All standing hand in hand And hear them echo through the hills For peace throughout the land" Peace. How much the world needs it now.
I'm happy to be from that time. People used to say 'good morning' good afternoon' or make a pleasant remark as they walked past you in the street. These days everyone has their eyes on the phone or ears plugged up. So we don't notice each other.😬
This was the first 45 I ever bought......I was 8 years old! It started a lifelong career in music.... I used to number my 45s with stickers. This has a “1” sticker on it! 🎶❤️
First single I ever bought. Not their best. Love Never ending song of love and Beg steal or borrow. Peter Doyle was my first crush. Was the best looking and had an incredible voice. Gone but never forgotten. RIP Peter Doyle.
There was a certain sweet thread of a hopeful hum on the earth back then, the air and the vibes were clear and bright. but in our hearts we knew there was a 'tsunami 'on the way one way or another, there are always tsunamis. Late 60's early to mid 70's was the last of the 'freedoms'. Free and loving people are almost impossible to control.
Too bad the world didn't listen to this kind of music before the wars started. We sang this song in Job crop, back in 1971 or 1972 in a skit, It was pure fun.
I'm so glad that a school friend told me about the group in the 1970's. I soon joined the Fan Club, I'm sure that I still have the badge (somewhere) which was yellow with The New Seekers Fan Club printed in red.
I was a special needs kid I'm now 41, i remember the school I went to and at assembly times they would have the whole school singing, this was one of many songs I remember, as an entire school the singing we did sounded pretty dam marvellous and the clapping came naturally 😁
On this day in 1972 {January 22nd} the Hilltop Singers performed "I'd Like To Teach The World To Sing" on the late Dick Clark's 'American Bandstand'... Two months earlier on November 27th, 1971 it entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart; eventually it peaked at #13 and spent 12 weeks on the Top 100... Was written by McCann Erickson as a 'Coca-Cola' commercial... Also covered in 1971 by The New Seekers; their version reached #7 on the Top 100... R.I.P. Mr. Clark {1929 - 2012}...
It wasn't a cover ! The New Seekers recorded the original Coke Jingle I'D LIKE TO BUY THE WORLD A COKE, along with several other jingles for Coca Cola.
@@SallyWilliams but it was, The New Seekers were offered the song first but they were busy at the time, hence the Hillside Singers got it. Then the New Seekers recorded it and included it on their album.
@@OberstHulmbug the Hillside singers released the 1st single version, but The New Seekers are still the original artists because they recorded the jingle that made the tune famous

I'd like to fill the world with gasoline. And burn it up with love. First time I heard this song that was what I thought they where singing. I just found this song and listen and glad those where not the lyrics. Have Great Day^^
This song should become the national anthem for the United Nations. I would like to see it in my lifetime. I am 66 years old and I could always wish and hope for it. I never imagine that in my lifetime I would see a Black President of the United States so its not to far fetch that I can see peace throughout the world starting with the generation born between 1940 and 1970 and with the younger generation of today. Peace let's give it a try, nothing else has worked.
we need a more loving compassionate world that cares for Earth all living things and people all living in healthier ways ..... maybe after the Pandemic we will have a better healthier loving world ??
Funny how the audience is clapping on 1 and 3. I thought only Swedes and Germans did that :P Still, nice to hear it actually performed live (most clips of this are playback). No autotune needed there!
Am a 54 year old, and am a Pepsi drinker,! 1st heard this song back in the 70s, when I was a kid, born May 23rd 1968, love the song,,! God Bless from northern Ireland UK, 🤝🇬🇧
If only they received a piece of the profit from the point the commercial was released until the campaign was stopped, receiving a percentage of the increase from point to point.
Sorry for a very late reply, only 2 years late 😂😂. This group was formed by Keith Potger who was one of The Seekers & he sang with the group for a while. However, non of these singers were with The Seekers 💞
This song was written by Roger Cook and Roger Greenaway as far as I can remember. They originally wrote it as a Coca Cola advert jingle. They also wrote a multitude of songs together and on collaborations with other writers. Frighteningly talented writers.

God we need more of this and less division in the world.
I've said this on other threads here. If there ever was a time machine, the 70's would be over populated.
I remember hearing this in a Coca-Cola ad on TV back in the early 70's....memories 👍😊💕
I'd like to give the world diabetes.
Yup. We had coke in glass bottles back then.
@@jeffreybensley5790 with coka cola?. drink zero cal so it's not as bad as normal coke.
@@jeffreybensley5790 You sure gave it to me! Thanks alot!👍✌️
@@jeffreybensley5790 maybe go outside and leave your phone at home.

The Ladies look stunning....no false bits,no fake colour,no bits hanging out...just real lovely women
Nothing fake about them.
The real thing -Coca Cola
Yes I hate how the bits hang out today. My mother says she likes those bits hanging out. I’ll never quite understand why.
Also No tattoos . No piercings for the men.
"I'd like to see the world for once
All standing hand in hand
And hear them echo through the hills
For peace throughout the land"
Peace. How much the world needs it now.
Something we can dream about.
Hopefully one day it might come to be.
That is when American was a great country now it is a bunch of want to be's. Where were all you brave assholes when Vietnam called.
@@joemike7537 I was a sperm in my dad's testes
We sang this song at our 6th grade graduation in 1973 😊 beautiful memory
Greetings, fellow sexagenarian!
I also sang this at my 6th grade graduation, but in 1972, in Brooklyn New York!
Me toooo!!!! I live in Mar del Plata Argentina
They need to bring this back🥺😢❤
@@alejandrogustavocesar7313 me too😊
They sang the songs that defined a generation.
I'm happy to be from that time.
People used to say 'good morning' good afternoon' or make a pleasant remark as they walked past you in the street.
These days everyone has their eyes on the phone or ears plugged up.
So we don't notice each other.😬
@@talatuk 0lp00
I’m so happy to have been a child and heard this when it was all over the TV and radio! I grew up in the best generation for music and TV!!
I think someone needs to start playing this song everywhere. We need the help 🦋
Memories of a more innocent time. Song is beautiful even today
We sure need it today!!
This was the first 45 I ever bought......I was 8 years old! It started a lifelong career in music....
I used to number my 45s with stickers. This has a “1” sticker on it! 🎶❤️
Im a guy who loves metal but this song is just simply amazing
Awesome! Absolute classic, brings back so many great memories of the 1970s.
They’re all in their mid 70’s now (or perhaps older)! Great song...great memories!
Some have even passed away R.I.P. to those that have. Thank you for your musical/humanitarian, gifts!
20 in the 70s, 70 in the 20s 💕
Gosh it has been a long time since I have heard this song! One of my favorites
The soundtrack for the greatest Coke Christmas commercial ever put on tv. If you're not old enough to remember it, look it up.
First single I ever bought. Not their best. Love Never ending song of love and Beg steal or borrow. Peter Doyle was my first crush. Was the best looking and had an incredible voice. Gone but never forgotten. RIP Peter Doyle.
I'd like the world to listen to this song.
Wish the human brotherhood would all live in harmony.
Someone please revive this song.

Catchy tune.

Still, nice to hear it actually performed live (most clips of this are playback). No autotune needed there!
经典可口可乐歌。

1970 was when this was in the Coke commercial. Too bad the world has turned to schitt instead of how it was then.
Love your figure lyn
@jackslicl100 I couldn't agree more.
Are you ready 2021 for the Great Awakening,

Coca Cola commercial
G.g.allen wrote this. These skums changed g.g.s words.
This song was written by Roger Cook and Roger Greenaway as far as I can remember. They originally wrote it as a Coca Cola advert jingle. They also wrote a multitude of songs together and on collaborations with other writers. Frighteningly talented writers.
What happened to this sentiment ?
Isn`t it.... I like to give the world a Coke?
The commercial jingle actually inspired the song.
Not as good without Coke-Cola sub lyrics.
The first propoganda for nwo.
