    Karl Denver was one of my dear old mums favourites. I still have all of his LPs that belonged to her. He was a very good singer from an era when you had to have talent and charisma to make it in show business. Not like these days when someone in the family manages to get on telly then the next thing is the whole bloody family are on telly with not an iota of talent amongst them all. Bring back the old days. Great video. 👍👍👍👍👍👍

      I tend to agree as it appears many others do judging by the recent reaction to Brad's son Barney who although a good musician (and seems a nice enough person) is no actor or TV presenter.

    I worked in the kitchens of Wooton fire service college, when this came out. I was prearing the veg. & broke into singing it, as lovely echo! Only then, was I aware, of faces at the door, smilling! My first audience! I carried on, from that day, & sung along to other karl Denvers & slim whitman, & could yodel. Im 66 now, & the yodel is gone, but, stil sing with the U3A singing for Fun group, here in Crawley.

    Thanks DelTankBrav.........It is way back when I posted that I would love to hear this song again, still sounds as I remember it from when I was about 16, that would be about 1962. Believe it or not.......I was able to sing along virtually word perfect after all these years. THANKS AGAIN.

    Brilliant. Have just retired and am tracing my music from the 60's. Used to like Karl but never appreciated just how good he was, his vocals are just amazing. Am about to buy his greatest hits CD so that I and can blast him out in the car.

    KEVIN NEILL (Lead Guitarist)
    Kevin died peacefully on Saturday March 13th 2010 at six o'clock in the evening, surrounded by his family at his home in Manchester.
    Kevin's career spanned over six decades, as a trombone player with bands like Joe Loss and Eric Winstone, as a guitar player with the Karl Denver Trio and finally as a member of The Bachelors for the last 15 years.

    • @raymondfunnel6856

    Thank you for uploading this song which has a very special meaning for me. I bought this single as a present for my boyfriend Next time I saw him he told me that he did not want to say goodbye, we were together for 50 years until 10 months ago when he died, and I believe we will never ever say goodbye. My husband and I met Karl Denver and his trio in a club in Bedford UK and that was the last time I saw him sing this song. You have bought back some very happy memories. Thank you.

    I'm back again.............love to have a listen to this track now and again. First heard it when I was about 15. I'm 70 now. Can't keep a good song down.... I've just realised how diverse my music taste is. Before this I was listening to ' Knights of Cydonia ' by Muse. Live at Wembley in 2007 is best version.

    • @DelTangBrav

      Hope you don't mind if I post the lyrics in the comments, I want to sing along with it. I;ll undoubtedly murder it!
      I saw in one of your clips that you had served in the 60s and 70s-me too. Did you know that KD had served in Korea with The Argylls?
      So it is said in various sources, such as his obituary here: www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/obituary-karl-denver-1075038.html
      The Argylls had a brutally hard time in Korea, which might explain his drinking.

    There was a radio tribute to Karl Denver in 2000 after Karls passing in 1998 and I heard the last part only of the show, and the final song played was Never Goodbye, I had never heard this before,but it was so moving that I went out and bought a Best of Karl Denver CD just for this, amazing voice.

      Truly an excellent nostalgic reaction Philip. I'm an old Scots lad who lived in London when I first came out of the forces 1968. My first purchase was a Karl Denver Lp. My London mates couldn't relate to it. My Jamaican pals absolutely loved it. 😅

    Thanks for this track.I haven't heard it for thirty odd years but it sounds exactly as I remember it.Even after all that time,I was still able to sing along immediatly.I have asked loads of mates over the years,if they knew the track and nobody did.I can prove it at last....Thanks,Terry.

    @mytube5090able 13 лет назад

    Karl Denver came to live on Sunnyside rd in Droylsden m/c for a short time and lads and girls used to hang about on the corner trying to get a glimpse of him, we knocked at his door one night and I asked for his autograph which he kindly obliged he signed it on a scrap of paper, which I still have. I think he had STILL in the charts competing with Ken Dodds version,Beatlemania was beginning,little did I realise that Karl had The Beatles on his show a few times ! This was Nov 1963 a fab time.

    I remember this song being one of six British entries for the Eurovision Song Contest in 1962 and as you have mentioned the entirely forgettable 'Ring A Ding Girl' was the one that went forward. One of the others was 'Alone Too Long' by Frank Ifield just a few months before he became famous with his million seller 'I Remember You'

    @DelTangBrav  12 лет назад +1

    I think there is an almost unwritten rule amongst us who upload Karl's recordings, that unless we have a better recording or a different version we don't upload what is already on RUclips. I have a copy of this but also know that it is already on RUclips but due to a slight error is not searchable, The exclamation mark at the end of what should be "Yelle!" has unfortunately been turned upside down forming an " i " if you search for: ":Karl Denver - Yellei" - you should find it..

    My late brother bought The EPs shown here, brought back memories many thanks. Karl, according to his publicity, was in The Merchant Navy and he jumped ship in the US, and ended up in Denver, hence stage name. Could be BS, of course.

    Thanks for your comment - I am happy to know this song brought back some happy memories for you. It is those memories that can help when you lose someone close to you.
    That is a thing about Karl and the other two* they treated their fans as friends and would not snub anyone.
    *Not sure if the other two were Gerry and Kevin - or Keith and Kevin - hence me referring to them as "The other two"
    Best Wishes David.

    I have never known Karl come up with a 'bad' song, and this is one of my favourites, although I can understand it may be an acquired taste. I acquired that tast over 50 years ago with 'Wimowheh', covered many times since by many artists as 'The Lion Sleeps Tonight', but never quite the same.
    Thanks a ton for the post.

    @DelTangBrav  15 лет назад +2

    I suggest you listen to some of Karl's other songs on this channel, "My Lovely World and You" is just one example of how he could, and did, sing in a softer mode. Another that comes to mind is "Irish Eyes" (also on this channel)

    Hi to all KD fans. I have met Karl many times and without doubt the best voice I have ever heard. My son Steve was also a good friend of his when he lived in Benidorm. I have a tape I recorded of Karl singing in Benidorm but don't know how to upload it. I also believe Bob Patterson has a copy of it along with one of his best friends from Liverpool named Ronnie.Also been to Karl's grave in Stockport Cemetary to pay my respects. God Bless and Rest in Peace Karl.

    @eddyfinkful This is delayed reaction since you posted this 9 months ago.........I was listening to Slim Whitman on RUclips and his voice is great. Just as I remember from late 50s/60s. That's the first time I have heard his version of 'I Remember You'. I wonder if he did that version before Frank Ifield or after.

    ~~~~~~~~
    Steady on Yellow.... LOL. I'm sure Kevin won't mind me mentioning he isn't even 78 until the 25th July 2009. He is a few months older than Karl was. (Born same year 1931), It reminds me of part of the KD cabaret act though... Kevin "I could have been one of the Bachelors" Karl in scything tone : "Why not your father was!"
    I reminded Kevin of that , he was then with the "New" Bachelors as they then called themselves.

    NEVER GOODBYE pieseň KARL DENVER, ktorá pred 55 rokmi dňa 22. februara 1962 sa objavila v UK rebríčku a ako štvrtý hit speváka za sebou v TOP 10 obsadila 9.m. škotský spevák vl.m. Angus McKenzie nar.16. decembra 1934 v Glasgowe, ktorý zomrel 21. decembra 1998 bol známy osobitným štýlom jodlovaneho spevu, v UK rebríčku uspel jeho jediný album Wimoweh, ktorý v roku 1961 obsadil 7.m.

    • @DelTangBrav
      @DelTangBrav  7 лет назад

      Not sure exactly what was said but almost certain you've got date of birth wrong the date should be 16th December *1931*. Karl did pretend to be a few years younger than he actually was - so the place you got date from might have been wrongly informed.

      I did see Karl in Frascati's (Oxford Road - near All Saints) in1963. He wasn't performing there, but he obviously had connections with the place - so it's likely he had performed there before he found fame.(and probably after - there was no stopping him ☺)

      @DelTangBrav  7 лет назад +1

      It's taken me some time to possibly find the answer. I think the "mystery words" are "Mi cuòre" Italian for "My Heart" - so the mention of "My Heart" directly after are a translation of what was previously said,
