I was fortunate enough to see Barbara Dickson playing the lead in Blood Brothers 3 times in the 1980s. She made the musical.
I just discovered this singer. I’m on a binge. Thank God for RUclips. No one ages here or goes away. They are constantly brand new to any generation. This dear lady is phenomenal…..meaningfully sincere and all with an angels voice.
Easy Terms with Willy Russell playing guitar is an even bigger tear jerker!
Brilliant song and brilliant singer.💝

Barbara Dickson has one of the clearest, most pure voices I've ever heard. My dad loves her and when I was a little girl, I used to love singing along to her - a real Scottish Treasure.
Well she's half scouse, mother from Liverpool!
I saw Blood Brothers last night in The Millennium Theatre in Cardiff. It was fantastic. Barbara Dixon the first Mrs Johnstone has the most amazing voice and sings this from her heart. 👏👏👏👏👏
So did I, it was the first time I've seen Blood Brothers, was in bits at the end. Brilliant!
@@bwgicat Me too. I think everyone was. I’d been wanting to see this for so long but didn’t want to go on my own. My son took me his first time to see something in the theatre and he is now hooked by this performance. Best wishes Lynne.
Why hasn't this been made into a movie. Best musical by far.
Wow 8years ago Ur first comment. And still not a movie. Would be perfect m such an amazing story and music
It's too good so it would be risky to turn it into a movie since so much of it could go wrong
It's the final song in Blood brothers
Yes, Annette. And the question is "Why hasn't Blood Brothers been made into a movie?". Good question.
Willy Russell has always been adamant that he wouldn’t let Blood Brothers become a film. The writing and story lends itself to stage, and wouldn’t transfer across well on to film e.g the same actors playing Mickey and Eddie all the way through their lives, the narrator appearing throughout, just things that would seem out of place in terms of a movie and would lessen the emotional impact and shock the story has on you, and tbh I fully agree.
I saw Barbra sing this in the West end,I cried like a baby. I was a 50 year old man.So powerful.
First show Philharmonic Liverpool stage watched every performance in Liverpool since
I saw it too. I always thought Barbara was good... but she was amazing in Blood Brothers.
Calm down, sweetie.
Best rendition ever of this song. Superb.
If you just read the lyrics, this song is fairly simple, but hearing Barbara Dickson sing it (plus the musical arrangement) - it's absolutely stunning! Wow - sensational!
she's just so good, isn't she?
her voice is so natural- it seems like she just opens her mouth and it comes out.. so beautifully.. so effortless..
Amazing!
I saw Barbara sing this at the opening night of Blood Brothers at the Liverpool Playhouse more years ago than i care to admit to. I cried then and have cried every other time (about15) i've seen it....... STILL my favourite musical of all time. Wish there was a movie.
This touches my soul.Beautiful voice ❤
Barbara Dickson her voice is like liquid gold.
name someone better than her know !!
I think nobody will ever come close to her because her voice is amazing. I only wish that I had the chance to see her perform this live.
Her voice when she sings this song gives me goosebumps time and time again...I've seen Blood Brothers three times yet sadly am too young to have seen it with her in which I bitterly regret but I was born in 1990.
I wish I'd seen Con O'Neill as Mickey, but I was born in 1991, so, I feel you.
One of the greatest Singers
Beautiful rendition by Barbara Dickinson. Unforgettable.
Absolutely right !
I think you mean Barbara DICKSON!! 😂
Saw Barbara years ago at the Liverpool Everyman, she was singing at a piano in John, Paul , George Ringo and Bert. It was also a Willy Russell show. A great show. She stole the show singing all the Beatles songs. Fab voice ❤
I've never been so moved by any song in a lifetime of going to the theatre. I saw Barbara Dickson many times when she was still part-time on the Scottish folk scene and now I can sing with her at Mass since we belong to the same parish. 🎵🏴🥰
A stunning vocal moving, believable and just blows you away everytime what a singer.
I first heard Barbara when I was 12 and hearing this started my love for musicals. I'm 43 now and still I listen to Barbara's amazing voice ❤
Was lucky enough to see Barbara in the original production with George Costigan when she won Best Actress in a musical. In my opinion the first and best Mrs Johnson..
Fab song from the Brilliant Barbara. Brings back great memories of the 1980s. When everything I Touched Turned To Gold, nowadays all I touch turns to shite.😢
I went to see this musical (Blood Brothers) two years ago for a GCSE Drama and everytime i hear this song it make me emotional :'(...Truely the best musical ever...and great song.
This lady is magnificent
Well, since yours seems to be the only negative comment out of 105,000 views I think it's safe to say that everyone else gets it apart from you?
You are loved !
Amazing voice
Brilliant absolutely beautiful voice
Beautiful
I had the most massive crush on this lady at the time. My then wife could not accept that, beautiful as Barbara is, it was her incredible voice that I adored. Wish
I saw Barbara as Mrs Jones in Blood Brothers 15 years ago , when she sang this the hairs on the back of my neck stood to attention , after all this time they still do fabulous song from tearjerking heartbreaking show , INC\REDIBLE PERFORMANCE :)
I am a Liverpool lad living in Western Australia.. Willy Russell and Bill Kenwight ( R.I.P ) Talent from scouseville forever!!
A number of excellent singers have had a pop at this , but Barbara Dickson has yet to be topped , beautiful , effortless voice , with that magic tone !
What a powerful song and what a voice!!!😢
You've obviously not seen Barbara playing the part. I've not seen any other actress come anywhere near her portrayal... the critics raved about her performance and with just cause. Even Willy Russell has admitted that she was the definitive Mrs Johnstone.
Barbara Dickson I seen this in the Playhouse theatre in Liverpool way back in the 80s it's the difinitave play that got me hooked on musicals it still sends shivers down my spine today when I hear you sing the songs you made Mrs Johnson I offen watch it on hear as it takes me right back best musical ever iv tried meany a time to go see it again but ether couldn't Alford it or have a babysitter at the time I will get to see it again just brilliant xxxx💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
@@nicolagriffiths9974 So agree with you. Barbara is both a wonderful singer and actress. I saw her in Blood Brothers and she was just superb - such a moving performance.
Sara C. She is Hun xx
8 times iv seen this show barbara sings the best,this final song makes anyone want to cry at the end
About Time for Blood Brothers The Film!
I cry every time I hear this
willy Russell said -- not the greatest musical .... but the greatest last 5 minutes of any musical.
Barbara Dickson used to be a bit of a 'secret' favourite of mine!
I'm a Rock, Blues, Jazz fan mostly but now I'm older & proud to have such good taste!! 😄😊
I saw the early performance of Blood Brothers in Liverpool many years ago and whilst I am sure no one would suggest Barbara has a classic voice she clearly echoed the pain of loss of a loved one. The audience was in tears and perhaps was appropriate for a city that lost so many loved ones at Hillsborough. I have seen other singers perform this song but Barbara's version did I think reflect the tough times evident in the city and many others of the era

Powerful, clear voice of the talented Barbara Dickson.
Wonderful voice, Willie Russell wrote Blood Brothers with Barbara in mind. Check out another suitcase in another hall from Evita, if you want to test a singer that's the song and this songstress is supberb at it. Johnny.
My 2nd favourite musical of all time (after Little Shop of Horrors). This song gets me every time - I worked as an usherette (as we were called then) at a theatre many years ago when Linda Nolan played the Mum character and I cried at every performance. Willy Russell is a genius (The Wrong Boy is one of my favourite ever books).
Linda was a wonderful Mrs J x
Most amazing song and beautifully sung. Blood Brothers is an amazing show. Quite a few tears shed
My daughter played Mrs. J and I love this musical.
Blood Brothers is just an amazing musical.
Barbara was the original Mrs Johnstone in the 1983 production. And still the best...
My favourite play EVER. So powerful
She came to belfast when noone else did, and her voice was crystal clear...still is.
Barbara hits that pefect spot that exists between musical theeeeetah diction and warm singing. I honestly can't think of another artist that achieves it in quite the same way.

I went to see Blood Brothers in London..my friends were totally shocked when I broke into tears at this part..since I'm not prone to cry in public -or at all. But then again, it was splendidly acted out, and just imaginating the mother's pain at this point about broke my heart. The tune got stuck in my brain the first time I heard it; so ty for putting it up!^^
I know exactly how you felt. I cried too. Different actress but the emotion was there.
I'm in tears right now 😭
Barbara is the best
no shame in a good cry from time to time.
Dickson is the finest exponent of her art alive today. Quite simply, no-one else comes close. Here, she's at her imperious best and totally captivating as usual. A beautiful performance (and live as well...)
I would have loved to have seen Barbara in blood brothers as I think she is an amazing singer and performer
I performed in Spend Spend Spend at The Picadilly in London 98/99 with Barbera..
A giant in musical theatre and a sweet sweet Lady.

Has me in tears every time
Any British Ex school pupils here who had to study this play as a part of their English?
Such an emotional song, gets me right here❤😥
i have to admitt i saw the show in london many years back with the late great stephanie lawrance in 1992 she was amazing. i can't comment on other actresses except fr bernnie and lind nolan in the tourinf productions,
but miss lawrance u were amazing and a true star xxx RIP
I saw Barbara in London in Blood Brothers outstanding as Mrs Johnstone. 👏👏👏
Hard song to sing 🎤 but we love her x
Simply wonderful
This is such a beautiful song sung by a beautiful singer.
Willy Russell actually wrote the prt FOR Barbara Dickson and she is the original and BEST.
this is the first time I've heard this song after hearing it was sung at Bowelbabe's funeral. what a dazzling star we've lost
I’m so grateful you shared this for Dame Deb. I’m from the US and she meant the world to me. Love and prayers to Bowelbabe.❤️
Saw Blood Brothers in Sydney in '89 with Chrissy Amphlette & Russell Crowe. One of the best musicals ever and Chrissy's performance was superlative. Makes me teary-eyed just hearing the music again.
There is an audio recording on youtube of Chrissy and the ensemble doing this song. The recording quality is not the best but one can get a sense of just how beautiful her voice was. Chrissy was quite unique. jtk
Sadly, it appears to have been recently removed but I get a rush of emotion just watching the short tv spot.
The astounding vocal genius of Barbara Dixon and a wonderfully emotional song beautifully written and delivered. All things considered, a perfect 3 minutes 22 seconds of music.
omgg,, im auditioning to do this at our drama school end of year show n willy russells actually coming to see us perform it OMG!!!
I first saw this musical when i was 8 and hav seen it 4 times since then! One of my life goals is to be in blood brothers! I'm only 16 and I have been given a part in a very popular musical on in the westend! lets just hope it will lead to a part in blood brothers!
Sarah Barry i know it’s been 11 years but I honestly hope you’ve achieved ur dream! from a 15 year old with the same goal x
She's well the best Mrs Johnstone!!
xxx
i've seen it twise!
and still love it!!
wht a show!
Superb song, sung magnificently. Rather tearful, but none the worse for that,
This is the best musical in the world and the reprise of this song at the end is the most powerful ending to a play I have ever seen! Really beautiful!!!
This show seems more human than some of the big glossy ones
why wasn't this song a hit?
Lovely voice, Barbara is a great singer
i have seen blood brothers twice when Linda Nolan was in it she was fantastic and this song make me cry when i listen to it and i think i might see it a gain this year when it come to Manchester in September/october
i have seen this musical and am now doing it for gcse drama and it is so fun i love this musical it is soooooo good if u havent seen it and it is coming to some where near you i would go see it
I went to see this musical for the first time ever yesterday and I just couldn't believe how good it was. The storyline was fantastic, the songs were beautiful, the set was amazingly interpurated into every scene and there were lots of hilarious parts in the middle. Then I cried my eyes out at the end. I just want to go and see it over and over again. Definatly the best musical I've ever been to.
It's working all right, theres a msg saying it was off line for a few days due to problems
I saw the musical many years ago and wept and still do when I hear this beautiful song sung by the wonderful Barbara Dickson
Love this song. And beautifully sung by the amazing Barbara Dickson. Saw her in Blood Brothers years ago and have just seen it again at Southend. It was brilliant.
this is the best song ever my singers from sws and the girl were amazin in the blood brothers polay at my skwl sws !!!!!!GO SWS WE ROCK THE WORLD !!!
I cannot believe that Blood Brothers hasn't been selected as a family feature film. A would be a multi million pound film.
wonderful lyrics beautifully sung by a wonderfully talented lady
I watched this musical in London about two weeks ago, and truly LOVE it, perhaps also because of the fact that I love Liverpool very much! Love the accent! Love this sad story! Awesome!
Omg, my school's doing a production on Blood Brothers and I'm singing this for audition, and this woman is so amazing! I feel bad though, lol. I can't top that.
Don't feel bad. It might be possible to match it but no one could top it.
yeah i saw this is london and i'm going again. its brillaint isn't it? best play ever in my eyes
Simply the BEST Mrs J
Impossible to watch this show without many hankies. I’ve seen it 4 times. ❤️❤️❤️
Excellent ! I also like the Kiki Dee version , and The very emotionally connected, Petula Clark !
WOW! The best rendition of this song ever! Thakyou Miss Dixon x
carol Mac
beatuful flawless voice love ya babs x x
The original and best ❤
The original and best.. noone comes close to Barbara's vocal performance.
Excellent job. Amazing voice. Beautiful song.
Ms. Dickson always kills it.
saw this at Phonix Theatre in London couple week ago was brilliant loved it want 2 c again
fantastic!
i saw blood brothers on thursday night at liverpool empire and it was amazing! i thought it was done so well and some of the other clips ive seen from other performances of it just dont seem as good but i could be biased.. we're studying it as a text in english and to be able to see how it is meant to be seen rather than written down was so much better than i thought it would be. Whoever played mickey in it and mrs johnstone were phenominal.
Loved this so much. Seen 4 times at very different places. Not usually a musical fan but this stuck!
Saw the great musical in London at 2006,
When I was visiting with my class from the Netherlands!
Loved it every sec. =]
A beautiful rendition, by a timeless artist.
Certain musical songs have their singer who owns it.
Barbra owns this one
OMG i went and saw blood brothers last night at the phoenix theatre n it was really really really good! everyone should see it. but it was so sad at the end, i love this song as well :)
I truly love this play "Blood Brothers"
For Deborah James gorgeous lady 💔🙏💔🌹
I'd never get fed up listening to that.
