I’m 76 a British woman, been crying to this song for decades. I cry every time. It’s a hymn for humanity. Sublime.
The Hollies were huge in 70's and 80's Britain. Few bands could match the Hollies harmonising..... They are still touring today... If you liked this, try All I need Is the Air that I breathe, Carrie-Anne, Bus Stop etc.....
A Message for the Whole World. Thank you for your lovely reaction. ❤❤
Such a simple song, but ... it evokes so many feelings.
Simple?
❤p.s. i was born in 1969, the year this song came out. I've literally loved it my whole life. The message is simple, yet deep and profound. ❤❤❤
"She Ain't Heavy, She's My Sister"... you two Understand!!!!✌💚✌💙✌❤✌
When you two go to 50 and Beyond.... Your Sisterhood Will Even Be More Profound!!! Believe It!!!!
The Hollies, what a great band.
If all the people in the world shared your positivity, energy and enthusiasm, what a great world we'd live in.
The line comes from a boy who carried his brother 300 miles from an orphanage to the new Boys Town. When they got to Boys Town a priest said isn't he heavy and he said no he ain't heavy he's my brother. This song will tug on the heart strings💔 Great choice ladies! Yee!😊
So good to finally hear the story behind this song, thank you so much!
Actually the two boys were residents at Boys Town. The boy had polio and was being carried by an older boy. When Father Flanagan saw the two he asked why was he carrying the other boy this is the line he responded with. Watch the movie "Boys Town".
Unfortunately I never saw the movie but I heard the story from a documentary?🌿
@@helgar791 Thanks, I've seen it being played on TCM but have never watched it, I'll definitely try to see it now.
If you do some searching, you'll find that there are versions of this story with a lot of different attributions, several of them predating the founding of Boys' Town. The oldest seems to be an account from the late 1800s by a minister of a Scottish girl carrying her brother and giving the famous response in Scots-English dialect. It was very illustrative of the spirit of Boys' Town, so it was appropriated for the movie, which became the best known usage.
My dad committed suicide in 2003 (don't worry, there's a funny ending to this) and my aunt was bringing his ashes to Vancouver on the plane. She wanted to carry the urn on her lap but the flight attendant asked if she would rather put it in the overhead compartment because urns are rather heavy, she replied "He ain't heavy, he's my brother." My dad would've laughed his ass off at that.
Hi! Just read your comment! So sorry for your loss, however the last part of your comment made me laugh SOO much! Thank you! No disrespect for your deceased relative. Peace and Blessings to you and your family from Australia.
Thank you for the song , The Sisters.
I never get tired of listening to this song! I always choke up, when hearing it. Such a beautiful song, with very powerful lyrics! I have always loved listening to their music. So glad the two of you are exploring different artists from past eras. There is such a wide variety of music out there. Loved this video reaction. Can't wait to chat with my lovely girls later today! Love & Blessings! 💗
I am just now seeing this comment. I sent you a reminder on another reaction. Please ignore : )
@@shawnmichael777. no worries, my friend! It is all good. Hope you can make it to the live stream today! Enjoy your day! 💗😘💗😘
What a touching reaction from you both.
This song does this to people, you two have a wonderful bond, its lovely to see.
The relationship between the two of you is beautiful.
I grew up in the 70's and 80's listening to some great bands and singers. You two girls are always so happy and open to hearing music from the pass, it is great to watch you both get moved by music. Please keep it up😀
Really beautiful song, Allen Clarke think on the vocals. Long Cool Woman another great one by the Hollies.
Saw this band live back in the early 1980s !! . One of the UK's top bands from the 1960s onwards they produced so many classic songs. You need to check out there other great songs. Gasoline Alley Bred, Bus stop, and especially Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress. It has a fantastic intro !! I consider myself so lucky to have grown up in the 60s with so much great music and so pleased that you enjoy it too.
I saw 'em in '83 on their tour where they reunited with Graham Nash. They were still great.
Oh yeah, Gasoline Alley Bred and Long Cool Woman...perfection! So many memories...we were so lucky back then when the world was only half as crazy!
Great message in this song❤
Yeeah! The Hollies! Please also react to Bus Stop and The Air That I Breathe 💕
Man this song is beautiful! A big hit for them back in 1969! But I remember as a kid listening to it in the 70s. Was still very popular then, great vocals indeed! They have great songs! Great reaction young ladies!👌😎👉♥️👍by the way! Family always comes first! And the way you two are bonding together is very inspiring!🙏and thats the way family should be. Your parents are raising you girls well! God bless you and your family.🙏♥️
Hi there ladies. This is another delightful video from you two girls. Another great song from the Hollies, which I am sure you will like is “The air that I breathe”. Please react to this one soon. Love from the south of England.
Such a great song....one of the best ever written and singing by the great HOLLIES....they are still touring....
😢it was written by Neil Diamond
Woooooo great reaction ladies!!YEEE!🌹🌹
Never apologize for pausing, listening ta you 2 talk is why I subscribed. Never heard this song before but it feels like you're pops made a really good choice.
I love this song, last year my sister passed away and at her memorial my youngest brother sang this song but changed it to she ain't heavy she's our sister I cried so hard it was so beautiful I miss my sister you are lucky to have each othet
There's a vid of these guys playing live (BBC I think)- Carrie Anne is the song.
Good one to check out. Great vocals , harmonies.
Listen closely and you’ll hear electric piano playing a rhythm part. They recruited the office boy who was as a pretty good piano player. Reg Dwight who was working on becoming Elton John.
I’m so glad you appreciate good music. The 70s were the best times for great music.
This is a great song about the love of siblings for one another. Just like your sister putting her around your shoulders letting you know how much she cares and loves you.
This beautiful song was written about two orphan brothers who came to the Catholic institution known as "Boys Town" in the state of Nebraska in the USA.
The story goes...When the priest saw one of the brothers carrying his young sibling on his back. The priest as the boy can he help bring him into the administration building...The boy responded, "That's okay father He Ain't Heavy He's, My brother."
There is now a very famous 8-foot statue of the boy carrying his brother in "Boys Town." Great reaction.
Alan Clarke's voice is amazing. Always cry when I hear this song.
Powerful is the right word for it! Wonderful song and a wonderful reaction. Love it! I look forward to seeing more! Have a great weekend, ladies!
Brilliant song.
You two young ladies are on a good path.Keep upholding "your sister".👍
Mia and Juliette - it is so nice to finally see you get around to reacting to a song from The Hollies! Before you finish your journey of musical discovery and appreciation be sure to check out their song, "The Air That I Breathe". It is a most special love song. Also, you know Adele and her song "Hello" right? Well you have to check out the cover of it by Walk Off The Earth featuring Myles and Isaak! It is like nothing you have ever seen or heard, and once you see it you will insist on checking out more of their songs!! Best wishes to you both!!
Pause anytime girls😉 we want to hear your refreshing takes on songs I have listened to since I was 10 years old👏👏 very cool😎
This song always grabs you by feelings. That is the true power of music. Have a great time discovering a whole world of beautiful music
Great reaction! I know, I'm late. Odd work hours. But spot-on analysis. I love the harmonies! This song was iconic back around 1970!
Great tune! Y'all making me feel old 😂 great reaction!
one of my favourite songs loved your reaction.
In the old days in UK The Hollies were called "The Band's Band "
So glad you two could feel it. Give Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress...VERY different. They were great.
Hope you’re having a amazing day! Always love when y’all post. Amazing as always!
When my young brother pass away this song came on the radio.
Other songs by The Hollies worth checking out: Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress, Bus Stop, On a Carousel, Long Dark Road, Stop! Stop! Stop! and Look Through Any Window.
Y’all are so sweet! ❤ enjoy ur music journey!
A beautiful summary, you lovely young ladies. I didn't expect this today because when you talk about the singer playing the harmonica, one of my best friends was also a singer who played blues harmonica between verses. He was tragically taken from us a few years ago and today is the anniversary of his death. I am now sharing a tear with you both, and I thank you for the lovely words in describing this iconic song.
James, we're so sorry for your loss. Our dad also lost his best friend not so long ago whom was also Juliet's Nino (godfather). It took a huge toll on us, including lack of video posting, effect of the loss of motivation. He was a huge part of our lives as he had met my dad in 3rd grade. Thank you for sharing...I hope you are doing better yourself -Mia :)
Thanks Two Sisters, I've Known This Song My Whole Life, It Brings Me To Tears Every Time I Hear It. You Two Are So Great For The World. REACTION COMMUNITY Is So Fortunate To Have You On Board. I'm Going To Send Your Channel To My Handsome Great Nephew My Niece (his mother) Wil Just Love You Girls Also. You Two Is What Makes This Country Great. If I Can Suggest A Love Song That You Mite Consider Reacting Too. Iris By The Goo Goo Dolls.......Peace And Love To Two Girls And Your Family. I'm Out RoRoRomero
Juliet & Mia, it's so sweet to see the sisterly bond between you.
Yet another great review, I am so jealous for you because my generation were brought up listening to great music. you have only started and you have so many amazing great songs to review. well done...
"Red Bone - One More Time - Top Pop" this was another very popular band in the 1970's. Nice reaction, girls 🔥🎸👍🏻🎶
❤I was scrolling n saw this....and i hit that subscribe button ! Trust me ladies, cherish each other. I lost my older sister 6 years ago. I miss her every single day. Those phone calls, the talks, the laughing. I'm happy to find your channel, with this particular song. ❤
Thank you for your post about the Hollies. You remind me of why they were one of my favorites back in the 60s and 70s. Their harmony was so great. What was great too about them was that they had the second most hits of any band in England during this time. Beatles were number 1.
Yeah! "She ain't heavy, she's my sister" . You got it Mia, as did Juliet talking about how close you are, and Mia I loved how you put your arm around Juliet spontaneously during the song. Both of you showed the sentiment of this song. Keep that going throughout your lives, you will be glad you did. I've always found this a very powerful song too. It is the best word for it. Also, your Dad did some beautiful camera work here -- at one point you can see both the band and you girls, for about 10 seconds -- it was beautiful.
This song was killer! I don't mean literally but it really played with my emotions! There was a point in the song where it felt like a direct stab to the chest and I really felt, in that moment, that I needed to hug Juliet for that reason. It's a very pleasant feeling knowing that there is someone that will "carry you" when you can no longer walk and when you know you would do the same for that person. Thank you for your comment! -Mia
@@danasfaith5738 Beautifully said, Mia, thank you. As a younger brother, as you are a younger sister, I too have a great older sibling, my brother, and that's why I wrote what I wrote -- expressing my hope that you and Juliet can maintain a great friendship throughout your lives. I know you can. It's great that during the song you felt you *could* put your arm around your sister. Imagine if you didn't feel like you could do that to your sister? That would be awful. Credit to Juliet for making you feel welcome, that you *can* come to her at any time. And I know she can do that with you as well. 😊
Graham Nash of Crosby, Stills ,and Nash (& Young) fame was with this group, but not on this later song. Check out the earlier Hollies hits that he sang the high parts and played guitar on. The Hollies had several hits in the late 1960s & 1970s. I enjoy your emotional reactions. Keep reviewing. Peace.
So powerful!! Still, after all these years. It never loses its power. Great reaction, bless you both, and those you love and who love you. 8'>D
Two bands were named in honor of the IMMORTAL Buddy Holly & The Crickets-The Hollies and The Beatles.
Great song - Great Vid! *REQUEST:* Make 2 videos... 1) Mia's favorite song. 2) Juliet's Favorite song. Explaining why & what it means to you & your favorite thing about it... vocals, lyric, beat, etc...
Love this song, so emotional. Great reaction Ladies!
So, I STRONGLY recommend "Nights in White Satin" by The Moody Blues. with the lyrics. And, if you want a musical history of Australia, "I am Australian" by The Seekers. RIP Judith Derham who passed away this week.
Beauty meeting pure feel ...always moves the center of the heart .
I lost my brother in 98 in kavos in corfu, I was 19 he was 21 but this one always gets me.
I’m a Liverpool fan, do ‘You’ll never walk alone’ with the crowds singing it at Anfield if you get a chance ladies
I'm sorry for your loss Steve, I can't imagine how hard it must've been for you. I'll show my dad the video so he can approve =) -Mia
Love this song girls, and the lead singer Graham Nash, and three other legends helped create the group…Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young(as in Neil).
Graham is NOT the lead singer. he sang backup in the 60s for The Hollies. the lead singer is Allan clarke.
"Father Flanagan, he ain't heavy, he's muh brutha". Search "images" of Boys Town on your search engine, they have a picture of a statue of these two boys.
He ain't heavy He's My brother baby
Ataahua (beautiful) reaction. Much Aroha (love) from New Zealand.
This is their most beautiful and meaningful song, although "The Air That I Breathe" is close. BTW, shout out to one of the most brilliant song writers of all time, the iconic Neil Diamond.
Thanks!
holies had many htis in v 60s n early 70s, first time i listend to ver hits record i knew nealry every song, was so suprised, fine vocals n songwriting, enjoy!
The Rev. Edward J. Flanagan, an Irish immigrant, borrowed $90 from a friend and opened Father Flanagan’s Boys’ Home in December 1917. In 1921 he bought the 160-acre Overlook Farm, the site of present-day Boys Town. The “He Ain’t Heavy, Father… He’s M’ Brother” phrase and statue have become Boys Town symbols. The Rev. Steven Boes, executive director of Boys Town, retold the story of the iconic words in a 2014 blog. An excerpt: “Back in 1918, a boy named Howard Loomis was abandoned by his mother... Howard had polio and wore heavy leg braces. Walking was very difficult for him... Soon, several of the older boys were carrying Howard up and down the stairs. One day, Father Flanagan asked Reuben Granger, one of those older boys, if carrying Howard was hard. Reuben replied, ‘He ain’t heavy, Father... he’s m’ brother.’ ”
You two are so special and sincere, your bond shows and there's no need to explain it. I'm lucky to have an older sister who I have the same kind of bond with even though there's 8 years between us. It's that deep seated bond of soul through love that we should have for everyone and this song to me says that. Family isn't just blood relatives, it's all of us no matter where we are or where we are from.
You are absolutely right! I love my sister (Juliet) dearly and I can't imagine not having the sweet relationship I have with her. I wouldn't trade my sister for the world. It's that sweet and safe feeling you get when you see them knowing that everything will be okay. I have a 6 year gap with Juliet as she is 18 and I am 12. I'm glad you have that type of relationship with your older sister as well! -Mia
Great song
Girls , if you liked this song check out "Reflections Of My Life" by The Marmalade , you will love it!
You got it! Feeling music is real, thinking music can fool you!
Great song, great choice ladies. The Hollies were very good in the 60's and had many, many great songs. Check out Carrie Ann and Bus Stop if you haven't already. Truly enjoy your reactions.
YEE Girls YEE Nation 🤩 yeah Queen Juliet you're always be the big sister even with little sister is president of the United States. Well said future madam president. I remember this song when I was a little kid with my brothers
Good video Dana and Faith. i have always liked this song. good job beautiful girls
✌🌹
Long cool woman in a black dress is their best song check it !!
You should hear the back story behind this song. Knowing the back story of this song makes it even better and I have known the back story almost since The Hollies released it way back in the 70's. You'll be surprised that this song was written in early 1900's about a kid in an orphanige around 1918. Check it out.
You girls.are.so.enjoyable.to watch,and live the fact that your diggin the music i grew up..
God bless Peace
I hope you listen to the Hollies - The Air that I breathe. That's a beautiful Song too. 🇬🇧☮️💕🎶🎶
Hi girls! If you like The Hollies musicianship, try "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress" for a real taste of late 1960s guitar playing! Great reaction, too... you got its vibe perfectly.
Ladies .. this song is an absolute masterpiece ..
That was really lovely to hear that the both of you are so close. Beautiful :)
This a tribute song, for those who fought in Vietnam.
Hi Girls♥ song sung which came out 1969 by our Soldiers during our Vietnam war
This was so sweet. Thank you for the reaction.
Just your reaction to this beautiful song, let's me know you guys are wise beyond your years. You have no doubt earned my sub.
You two young ladies are wise beyond your years. Your reaction touched me as much as the song did, well done, quite splendid.
Thank you for your kind words Daniel! This song really represented and showed how much I really care about my sister, which is a lot! I love my sister and I wouldn't trade her for anyone or anything else! -Mia
@@danasfaith5738 You are truly blessed to have such a close, loving relationship with your sister. Bless you. Next song by the Hollies should be: Bus Stop.
The Hollies "Bus Stop" & "On A Carousel"
the strings were killin it too! Nice reaction!
Hi girls from Texas and New Mexico! You all are doing some great old songs lately!
They had a lot of beautiful songs - you’d love The Air That I Breathe.
This song came out during the Vietnam War Era,,, and it was top of the charts way back then and it's still is so nice.
I love "Stay", "On a Carrousel", "Just One Look", "Sorry Suzanne", "Bus Stop", "Listen To Me", "Can't Let Go", "Here We Go", "Dont Let Me Down". Only...
Oh...I forget "Carrie Anne"
Back in 1918, a boy named Howard Loomis was abandoned by his mother at Father Flanagan’s Home for Boys, which had opened just a year earlier. Howard had polio and wore heavy leg braces. Walking was difficult for him, especially when he had to go up or down steps.
Soon, several of the Home’s older boys were carrying Howard up and down the stairs.
One day, Father Flanagan asked Reuben Granger, one of those older boys, if carrying Howard was hard.
Reuben replied, “He ain’t heavy, Father… he’s m’ brother.”
❤️❤️❤️
Mia your descriptions are great!
For another great Hollies song check out Stop,Stop, Stop. They were all big Buddy Holly fans, hence the name with a spelling change out of respect for him.
This song and Long Cool Woman In a Black Dress are their best songs. But they're 2 songs that stand test of time.
Back when bands just created music without regard to marketing, pop trends, demographics, and all that makes much of today's 'music'. Do your friends listen to as much of the older stuff? Regardless where your lives take you, you will value having been exposed to music written by bands that created such diverse quality. May never come again.
Good vid. And reaction
