The human voice is the most beautiful instrument. It truly is connected to the heart. The Real Group is outstanding.
I never heard and never will hear anything like this ever again. there is so much musical detail in this one. the sadness of beauty is expressed musically and lyrically to its fullest. what an outstanding performance.
The arranger's harmonic imagination is sensational. And so is the group's tuning. Those complex chords and suspensions are just thrilling when sung by these musical perfectionists. Unreal!
Right?? I mean, what is that levitating sensation that 1:16 chord gives me?
@@pedrosoares2253 Not the more complex of the song (in my opinion) but yes beautiful. I think about a Dm 9 11 : D F C E G (leave a 10th between D and F).
Hey, thanks mate! Well , maybe it's not the most complex but sure is the one that brings the most complex 'nasty face' from me... Uff!
It is fantastic, it's the best what I've heard from decades. THANK YOU !
This group came to my college during my freshman year at Goshen College. I was blown away because #1- the acoustics in the college were outstanding, especially since it was a relatively small college, and #2- how their voices ringed off of the walls of the halls when they sang was breathtaking. So mesmerizing!
I love this song. Sometimes that makes me cry...
From France!

Thank you TheRealGroup

'There is reliable information that - most of the time - almost no one gets lost on the way back.'
same here
Again and again - hauntingly beauuutiful! 🙌🏼
Now that is what I call acapella at its best!
Simply Beautiful. Nat King Cole would be proud to hear this arrangement.
It's just Wow! It's beyond, it's unreal 😍 it's magic, it's so beautifully performed!
Had no other choice than to clap aloud, sitting alone in my bedroom = ) Flawless work!
So happy you shared that.. me too, but in the kitchen reaching for the Kleenex.
I've been coming back to this regularly since 2015. Angelic work!
Found this to be one of my favorites.
It's obviously for the whole, but for me is that 1:16 harmony that sends me off the roof... uuuff 🥲
No vibrato! Immaculate!! 🎶🔥‼️
1000/10. Que les gens sont beaux quand ils sont en vérités // That people are beautiful when they are in truth
Just saw them last night in Jenison. They are sooo amazing. When they sang, the entire room was silent. You could see little kids, staring with awe. You could see old men and women crying as they listened. It was beautiful. I can't believe I was lucky enough to see them.
This version of the song is purely amazing! While most versions are cheap covers, and somebody taking too much artistic license with the original, you've actually managed to add to the song, without taking anything away from it, as well as nailing the true emotion behind it. Absolutely beautiful!
So very true and well stated Jason, I was looking for a rendition of this beautiful standard to play lead guitar to, Something with true emotion and depth of soul, yet pure and innocent.
This was breathtaking, and from watching & studying the faces from honored guests that were in attendance for this, the tears began to flow. I knew I had found the perfect piece to play along with quietly in the background.
Absolutely beautiful as you stated, and timeless as a whisper in the wind....

Very good comment !!
My son loved this song and definitely understood the higher law of love. Beautiful harmonies. Nat King Cole made it classic jazz back when.
Jessie Eleanor bless your son and nkc
Lyric
There was a boy
A very strange, enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far
Very far, over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he
And then one day
One magic day he passed my way
While we spoke of many things
Fools and Kings
This he said to me:
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return"
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return"
Do you know that it was written for Nat Cole by Eban Ahbez.. his is quite a story.
Love this music and this is the best interpretation EVER !
I can't believe 8 years have gone by. This rendition of the song still hits just as hard .
Just THANK YOU Real Group for being and singing and sharing it!
Maaan.
This is nearly 10 years old but loving it more every time I listen to it.
Just to Love and be Loved in Return. Oh, my, my, my, my...
Wow... This take on a standard is exceptional... Very finely crafted.
Wow, shiver me timbers!
This must be the twentieth time I see this. I am still moved beyond belief. The middle part is incredible.
Sveinung Marvik I agree
Lovely arrangement. Exquisite Harmony and Perfect vocal execution!!
Wonderful, wonderful!.. from an Australian in London :-)
This is exquisite. The black lead singer female voice is so well received. She favors the black actress and singer Lonette Mckee as to be like sisters. They don't need to be in a small pub doing this. They need to be in opera houses, because they are absolutely wonderful. What a divinely timeless and haunting melody that shall forever be ageless without flaw. ALL HAILS FROM THE MIDDLE EAST.
Hauntingly beautiful rendition of a classic song! Reflect...meditate... and appreciate ..what authentic love is: UNCONDITIONAL!
Incredible! It made me cry...
Music at its best
This is wonderful art. . . the best rendition of this difficult song I've ever heard!
There are words for me.....but this song touched my very core of thoughts and emotions - majestic work of art
That audience is so stoic! I would have had tears running down my face!!
I'll reply to my own statement: Could it be that they don't speak English?
It is their family
is one of my favourite songs.
Not only the music is exquisite but also the b&w camera works are excellent.
Thanks for this HQ video.
Amazing!
Wow!!!!! Stunning... brought tears to my eyes... thank you!!!
Hello Gill..
One could fall in love wit her voice. They are all so wonderful
Emocionante! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
That middle part - DANG!!! Such great writing.
Brilliant. I always knew the Swedes were marvelously musical. Here, once again, is proof. Thank you :-)
How could the audience experience this live without crying their eyes out?
Incredibly beautiful arrangement and performance! ❤️
Ha! I made the same comment somewhere in these comments. (Or, since the audience are dear friends and family of the singers, they may have heard it enough times and been immune to feelings... I don't know, though, I've listened to this numerous times and gotten goose pimples and tears in my eyes every time!)
Yes, I'd be afraid of ruining the recording with the sounds of my reaction!
Singing their Nature Boy of The Real Gloup, great.
Well that twisted me up... damn.
Truly magnificent. I absolutely adore the group's harmony . I've followed Emma's wonderful voice ever since Her and Laid's contribution to the Hed Kandi cd.
Thank you for this wonderful video, tack så mycket. Min själ sjunger när jag lyssnar på denna låt.
Tack så mycket för musiken!
Oh my goodness, it's been a long time since my heart found its way into The teardrops of my eyes.
I was simply looking for a rendition of this beautiful standard to play lead guitar with, I always choose music with emotion and depth to play along with, this just added teardrops to my fretboard as I play from my bone marrow of life.
Thank you for your wonderful gift, I can only imagine being in this small gathering as an honored attendee, I would be the one with a lowered head in my hands.
Simply breath taking.
They continue to do the same for me. I have sung jazz harmonies for years, and this group-even with personnel change, remains at the top of my list!
Always loved this song and this version took my breath away!
Absolutely AMAZING :)
ネイチャーボーイで初めて鳥肌立ちました、素晴らしいです
I first learned this song in the late 50 and thought no one could sing it as good as Nat King Cole. Boy was I wrong! This rendition is beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing. Take Care,
Dave
Don't forget that Nat Cole was also an amazing playful piano player.
@@christer8964 thanks for the comment. He, Mr. Cole never thought he was much of a singer. Boy was he wrong.
Take Care,
Dave
Yes you’re right, he played a really good piano!!!
@@daveelmer I think the voice came more or less naturally, but reaching that level on the piano and create your own style take you a lifetime in dedication.
Take care,
Christer
@@christer8964 yup you’re right. He has always been one of my favorite performers!!!!
Beautiful song. And posted on my birthday, too. :)
Tears every time
Восхитительно!

Hello Debra..

Fantastic!
So GOOD!!!!!
.....Beautiful harmony, thank you.
This is magnificent.
Beautiful sound.
This is my favorite vocal group, since the absence of Singers Unlimited. I have many of TRG's cds and I've witnessed the personnel change through the years, but the quality and absolute perfection of singing the song is still top drawer. This group nails it .... really!!!
This speaks directly to my heart
really wonderful - their voices - the blend/arrangement
