In 1998 I was in Beaumont hospital with cancer waiting to go for the operation the next day. I just wanted to go home as I was afraid. So I went down to the radio station in the hospital and asked them to play this song for me. It really calmed me down and made me feel that I would make it home. Its now 24 years later and all is good. So thank you Jon and Vangelis you helped save me :)
And for my Dad, he found his way home so many years ago. As will your dear father, there is something more. The pain and fear will fade away and he will be whole and one again. Take heart and fear nought.
It makes me smile, seeing Jon at this point in the early eighties, when everything seemed so optimistic. Truly, we never knew how good we had it. As we look back on those days from the point of view of the 21st century, my wife and I realized that we didn't appreciate it because we didn't realize we could ever lose it. Now we know.
I think I know how you feel( born 1968) but don't give up hope, I truly believe that we will once again feel fortunate that we were born when we were. Patience....
I don't remember the early 80s being optimistic. The USSR was fully committed to the Cold War, and Ronald Reagan had begun dismantling the America that had taken 200 years to build. Perhaps your memories are clouded by nostalgia from your teenage years?
This beautiful song was played at eight year old sarah payne's funeral. God bless beautiful little angel sarah and her loving family. Sarah would have been 32 years of age by now. Sweet little princess sarah is reunited with her beloved daddy again.
Had this played at my sister's funeral taken from us brain cancer 3 months ago....she loved this tune...this is only the second time I've had the courage to play it xxx
Lost my youngest brother to Sudden Adult Death while playing football, we loved this song as kids. It’s never easy and anyone who says it gets better with time is a liar. Remember to talk to your sister every day about anything at all, I found it helps and she is closer to you than you think. Death is not the final curtain and should be celebrated. Happy Christmas from Ireland 🇮🇪
I've been humming this song to myself for nearly 40 years, since I was a kid, searching and searching for it with no idea what it was, who by (male or female) or any of the lyrics. Sang it to my fella, sang it to Shazam, no joy. Finally, tonight, heard it playing in the background of a compilation show about 1982, Googled some lyrics, and here I am. Totally overjoyed :-D
RIP Vangelis, fantastic composer. So very sorry he's gone. HIs music was haunting and beautiful. With Jon's voice soaring over the top, with lyrics that transport and comfort you at the same time.
@@NiallHogan-r5k They didn't forget him. They ignored Him and have been trying to find something else to take His place unsuccessfully. They claim He doesn't exist and only the unintelligent believe he does. Despite this the mass of the people continue to believe in Him in one form or another, and with good reason. All things point to the existence of a creator.
@@NiallHogan-r5kfor some thats a good thing. In a time where we uncover more wrongoings by religious leaders, a lot of us proove that we are better than our creations( yes, by that i mean any god one happens to belive in)

Just to reveal the person who wrote that comment is not the only one, and somehow prove how good and eternal the song is. It's tiring but we're living in the age of calling attention
I love this song my dad got killed in Tenerife someone knocked him off his bike 2015 Christmas when I come back from his funeral in Tenerife this is what was on the radio when I came back home so this in my collection what I listen to lovely song I find my way home love u dad xxx
Hmm... yeah... I've got New Order's "Temptation", after my mom has been killed by a car. /and then I finished with Joy Division... for obvious reasons/
Played this out of the blue to my baby brother (51 yrs young) the other night. It opened up so many great memories and injected such good energy into the house. Thank you Vangelis. ‘...Just hold my hand and we’re there...’
I like this song very much! 🎶 😌 My dad to and he used to play it in the 80:s. He died in year 2020 just 69 years old. A chock for me and my sisters. This song is for dad. 💜 😢
Pe 25 octombrie 2024 Jon Anderson a implinit 80 ani. Vangelis este deja in veșnicie. Le sunt recunoscătoare pentru această melodie de suflet. O mai ascultă cineva in final de an 2024?
I listen to this song, and only one reflection occurs to me: The sun always rises for everyone, no matter how adverse our path becomes despite the blows that life gives us. Resilience, personal improvement and self-discovery, and hope are key in our lives; when we think all is lost.
Bei diesem Lied habe ich mich mit meiner damaligen Freundin das erste mal in meinem Leben geküsst, ich denke der Rest ist selbsterklärend. Ich erinnere mich heute immer noch gern daran und liebe dieses Lied heute wie damals.
A school freind died at 40, she was so shy n didnt have many freinds. another school freind posted this song on Facebook in memory of her.....2 years later at 42 he died of a brain hemorrhage. Always reminds me of them both
Jon and Vangelis is a criminally underrated project. The lead singer of Yes teamed up with the musical genius behind Chariots of Fire (and various lesser known tracks that I think are equally epic)!
Yes! Incredible albums by Jon & Vangelis 👏👏 I'm currently exploring more Jon Anderson solo albums (buying them bit by bit through eBay etc as I prefer physical cd's). Love his lyrics and voice.
My brother, one of the first to be struck down with AIDS, declared this song, his theme. Back in the those days it was only known as the gay cancer. We had no idea about his alternative lifestyle; he kept it hidden until a few months before his passing. He came home to visit and I suppose to say his good-byes. He was about to board a plane back to New York City to settle his affairs, but he suddenly took a turn for the worse. The airline refused to let him fly. As it turned out, he would have died on the plane. My brother was an inspiration to me. I followed, as best I could, in his footsteps. His interests became my interests. He was so talented as a singer, musician, artist, and even scientist that there was just no way I could hold a candle to him.
Thats a very moving tribute to your brother. Indeed AIDS is a horrible and debilitating illness, I myself am HIV+. Your brother will be proud of you and walking in your footsteps as if each were his own. Stand proud, for both your brother and yourself. Much respect.
Reading the bad news of Vangelis gone… I came up with this song never heard before!!!! Forty years and I find it incredible, a masterpiece!!!! Thank you so much for this beautiful music that will be forever cherished…
I know this song, it’s a song my father played a lot. I always liked it, when I got older and learned English at school, I understood what it meant. I actually have a tattoo on my arm written “ somehow I’ll find my way home “
I remember Vangelis....this song and "I hear you now" made me dream.....I used to climb to the roof of the house just to watch the sunrise on the mountains.... even though I had a shit childhood and my teenager years were garbage just listening to this music made me dream of a better future..... it made me feel if not happy, I felt hopeful.... I remember those winter nights when I used to sit on that roof sad as hell and so lonely...... I cannot count the times I cried because of the hurt..... thanks for the music and thank you for making me feel other than sadness.
Bought the single in 1982 when I was 16 years old. The record is still part of my collection. Great great song !!! R.I.P Vangelis, pioneer of electronic music and creator of iconic soundtracks
Vangelis, arguably the best musician in the world before he died couldn't read music. He used to play some chords and an assistant would write the music for him. He also never had any music lessons and Chariots of Fire was written for his father who won a gold medal at the Olympics. Their is a documentary on Vangelis that lasts for 2 hours but it tells his life story through his own eyes. Well worth finding and watching! I hear you now was also a great song of theres.
What a song..what a voice...and as always amazing music composed by the legendary Vangelis. Vangelis has no parallel, his music is eternal, evergreen, ever lasting. I just can't get out of this song. This is song that will stand as decades pass away. How strange and sad it is, that the lyrics of all the old songs sound so deeply meaningful with a blend of sadness and happiness both.
Your friend is close by your side And speaks in far ancient tongue A seasons wish will come true All seasons begin with you One world we all come from One world we melt into one
Having just returned from my close friend's funeral, who died suddenly, accidentally, tragically, this was the song playing as we departed. The soundtrack of our final goodbye's. I'd not heard it before. It's beautiful. And now, it will be forever a poignant reminder of my dear friend, Benjamin Yorke Edgell. RIP Ben. You were loved by many, you'll be missed greatly. So long...
I wish such songs and melodies were made today, but after the 2000s I have not heard such beautiful melodies and harmonies. Still waiting for some perfect tunes like this to pop up
I still cannot truly comprehend the great loss of Evangelos Odysseas Papathanassiou. From the very beginning he has helped me through many tumultuous parts of my life by giving my soul such peace as I have found nowhere else. I will miss him till my dying day, and mourn the fact he will create no more.

Cool, how did he feel about bigfoot and the loch ness monster? As you are listing irrelevant magical crap that his relatives believe I thought I'd ask.
@@RobinYork123 - No it doesn't. Don't be ridiculous. The Bible supports slavery, says you can stone your own child to death, says to execute gays. It is a book written by people with little or no understanding of science or the rest of the world. In parts, they suggest the earth is flat despite the ancient Greeks understanding it wasn't. The writers think humans were the first life on earth, that the earth is only around 6000 years old. They don't mention a single animal or people not known locally. And they certainly don't predict the future. Give me an accurate clear example of The Bible predicting anything that later happened. And don't list something that the Bible says Jesus predicted and then it came true. I mean something that the Bible said in print that later happened. And not some vague prophecy of war or disease, which anyone can predict as they happen all the time.
@@AnyoneCanSee Prophecies fulfilled by Jesus Christ. There were over 300 prophecies fulfilled in the person of Jesus Christ. The Bible has many that were written thousands of years before Jesus was born. Precise, detailed prophecies such as; where He would be born (Micah 5:2), how He would be born, (Isaiah 7:14) how He would die (Psalm 34:20.) History has proven, without any doubt whatsoever, they were fulfilled exactly as that Amazing Book (the Bible) had prophesied, hundreds of years earlier. In the book, “Science Speaks,” mathematician and scientist, Peter Stoner, applies the rules of probability to these prophecies. The chances of just eight of these three hundred prophecies being fulfilled are 1 in 10 to the 17th power; that's: 1 in 100,000,000,000,000,000! Compared to: The odds of someone being struck by lightning are: 1 in 709,260. The odds of winning the Kentucky Lottery are: 1 in 5,245,786. 2 Picking the 6 right numbers in 49 number Lottery: 1 in 13,983,816. In the book, “Science speaks,” Professor Stoner, illustrates: Let us try to visualize this chance, suppose that we take 10 to the 17th power silver dollars and lay them on the face of Texas. They will cover all of the state two feet deep, now mark one of these silver dollars and stir the whole mass thoroughly, now blindfold a man and tell him he must pick up one silver dollar. What chance would he have of getting the right one? Just the same chance that the prophets would have had of writing these eight prophecies and having them all come true in any one man. Science Speaks, pages 106 + 107. Professor Stoner, then took 48 of these over 300 fulfilled prophecies, only one-sixth, the chances of the 48 being fulfilled are 1 in 10 to the 157 power, that's 1 in 10 with 157 zeros! Or, illustrated: That's: 1 in 10,000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000. Here's how Professor Stoner illustrates: Let us try to visualize it. . . The electron is about as small an object as we know of. It is so small that it will take 2.5 x 10 to the 15th power of them laid side by side to make a line, single file, one inch long. If we were going to count the electrons in this line one inch long, and counted 250 each minute, and if we counted day and night, it would take us 19,000,000 years to count just the one-inch line of electrons. . . With this introduction, let us go back to our chance of 1 in 10 to the157th power. . . Let us make a solid ball of electrons, extending in all directions from the earth to the distance of six billion light-years (the distance that light will travel at 186,000 miles a second in 6,000,000,000 years). Have we used up our 10 to the 157th power electrons? No, we have made such a small hole in the mass that we cannot see it. Now, one of these electrons was marked and thoroughly stirred into the whole mass; blindfold your man and ask him to find the marked electron. (The electron, in fact, is so small that it cannot be seen with a powerful microscope.) To the extent, then, that we know this blindfolded man cannot pick out the marked electron, we know that the Bible is inspired. - Science Speaks, pg. 109 - 111
Still waiting and praying Jon finds his way home. There's only one home. That of Jesus Christ who created us for His glory. Only one way to Him, repentance and faith in His reconciliation with God through suffering on the cross. Knowing And obeying Christ is real freedom and life forever. May Jon find it before it's too late.
Fantastic RIP Vangelis..your memory will live on. This song resonates so much with me after my parents death..both passed away within 2 months of each other..this helps me x
I was 14 when this was released. Hard times for my mum and I. Mum never earned much but we had a little cottage in Wales which came with her job. Life was sometimes a little difficult but it was nonetheless a happy time and I look back and it makes me smile. Sadly all my family are now gone, my mum and dad, uncles and aunts. It's life and we all have to face it at some point. I'm lucky that I have a great woman to help me and two great kids. I hope you are not alone and that you have some support during difficult times. Good Luck

He did write the lift music for the journeys to Heaven and Hell after all....
@SharrelWright That's just what preservative Christians guy to not upset anything 'they believe in'.
Vangelis and Jon, a match made in heaven.
In these times of uncertainty, how uplifting to hear this, long live Brittania
A school freind died at 40, she was so shy n didnt have many freinds. another school freind posted this song on Facebook in memory of her.....2 years later at 42 he died of a brain hemorrhage. Always reminds me of them both
My Lord. Absolutely heart breaking Bernie. May they rest in peace 😢😢🙏
I hope the family of Vangelis can see all the wonderful,warm tributes to a inspirational music producer.🙏🙏🙏
Anyone? Family? Hello?
Danke für diesen wundervollen Song! I Hope we all finde Home 🙏💜🎼 In Memory of VANGELIS ❤
makes me cry the whole vibe of this song takes me back to the 1980s x
R. I. ✌️Vangelis 🎹🙏
'Vale' Vangelis. May he rest in peace.
I dont remember if i have posted a comment, not been a good year, this song is beautiful, i suspect they had no idea, which makes it more magical x
Jon and Vangelis is a criminally underrated project. The lead singer of Yes teamed up with the musical genius behind Chariots of Fire (and various lesser known tracks that I think are equally epic)!
Vangelis did blade runner as well.
Yes! Incredible albums by Jon & Vangelis 👏👏 I'm currently exploring more Jon Anderson solo albums (buying them bit by bit through eBay etc as I prefer physical cd's). Love his lyrics and voice.
Oh goodness, and just in the news today, Vangelis has left us to fly free around the cosmos ✨ Rest in paradise beautiful man 🙏💗

This utterly beautiful song takes me back to being 16 years of age and reignites a Million memories.
Yup. I was 12. Magical memories and happy times.
Same here. 16 at the time. My number 1 of all time.
I too was 16 and played it over and over just love this song..🇮🇪
With the passing of (my friend) Vangelis i will still find my way home
This takes me back to a different time and place.wish I was still there
Cannot help but admire the talent and skill of the people that play these magnificent instruments.
My brother, one of the first to be struck down with AIDS, declared this song, his theme. Back in the those days it was only known as the gay cancer. We had no idea about his alternative lifestyle; he kept it hidden until a few months before his passing. He came home to visit and I suppose to say his good-byes. He was about to board a plane back to New York City to settle his affairs, but he suddenly took a turn for the worse. The airline refused to let him fly. As it turned out, he would have died on the plane. My brother was an inspiration to me. I followed, as best I could, in his footsteps. His interests became my interests. He was so talented as a singer, musician, artist, and even scientist that there was just no way I could hold a candle to him.
Rick Perez What a lovely tribute to your brother. The song is indeed fitting. Following in his footsteps, I'm sure he would be very proud of you.
Thats a very moving tribute to your brother. Indeed AIDS is a horrible and debilitating illness, I myself am HIV+. Your brother will be proud of you and walking in your footsteps as if each were his own. Stand proud, for both your brother and yourself. Much respect.
Such a sad and beautiful story. You surely honour his memory.
My heart ❤️😭 that was so touching to read.
That's so sad, he was very brave I love this song for different reasons to you xx
My mum loved this song!
RIP Vangelis 😢
May your Mam R.I.P in heaven.
So did mine & got an album of theirs as a result. I found the CD version and enjoy it still....
Man, this all feels like the Super80s PARADISE: the best 80s, music, vocals, venue, lighting, show, setting, performers, WHAT THE HELL!!!
Reading the bad news of Vangelis gone… I came up with this song never heard before!!!! Forty years and I find it incredible, a masterpiece!!!! Thank you so much for this beautiful music that will be forever cherished…
RIP, Sir.Your music will live forever. ❤🙏
I know this song, it’s a song my father played a lot. I always liked it, when I got older and learned English at school, I understood what it meant. I actually have a tattoo on my arm written “ somehow I’ll find my way home “
Good night Vangelis.
I remember Vangelis....this song and "I hear you now" made me dream.....I used to climb to the roof of the house just to watch the sunrise on the mountains.... even though I had a shit childhood and my teenager years were garbage just listening to this music made me dream of a better future..... it made me feel if not happy, I felt hopeful.... I remember those winter nights when I used to sit on that roof sad as hell and so lonely...... I cannot count the times I cried because of the hurt..... thanks for the music and thank you for making me feel other than sadness.
Cool story, bro.
how are u now?u managed?
Dude we are thinking of you in 2020/21
I wish you happiness.
Good luck now
Que voulez vous de plus.......Le talent et la nostalgieeee..Amoureusement,le troisieme oeil.
Bought the single in 1982 when I was 16 years old. The record is still part of my collection. Great great song !!!
R.I.P Vangelis, pioneer of electronic music and creator of iconic soundtracks
Same here.... still in my collection in very good shape! Preserve.
Rest in peace Vangelis - thank you for so many pieces of wonderful music
It's just 1 of those classics u NEVER get sick of hearing .
Whenever you feel a little lost, a little down, put this song on and turn it up really loud.....
I wholeheartedly agree
Vangelis,
The most underrated keyboard player of all times.
Vangelis, arguably the best musician in the world before he died couldn't read music. He used to play some chords and an assistant would write the music for him. He also never had any music lessons and Chariots of Fire was written for his father who won a gold medal at the Olympics. Their is a documentary on Vangelis that lasts for 2 hours but it tells his life story through his own eyes. Well worth finding and watching! I hear you now was also a great song of theres.
Rest in peace vangelis. The music u made will echo in eternety.
What a song..what a voice...and as always amazing music composed by the legendary Vangelis. Vangelis has no parallel, his music is eternal, evergreen, ever lasting. I just can't get out of this song. This is song that will stand as decades pass away. How strange and sad it is, that the lyrics of all the old songs sound so deeply meaningful with a blend of sadness and happiness both.
Back when the artists wrote their own music, trying to send a message.
To bad people stopped listening.
Your friend is close by your side
And speaks in far ancient tongue
A seasons wish will come true
All seasons begin with you
One world we all come from
One world we melt into one
I grew up with Vangelis music, dreaming of stars and galaxies. I hope he will find his way home, up in the sky. Rest in peace!
It was truly a pleasure to have gotten to know Vangelis music Thank you for all with my love forever .R.I.P
2 legends together Jon Anderson (YES) & Vangelis with the classic "I'll find my way home" Vangelis RIP 🙏.
Having just returned from my close friend's funeral, who died suddenly, accidentally, tragically, this was the song playing as we departed. The soundtrack of our final goodbye's.
I'd not heard it before. It's beautiful. And now, it will be forever a poignant reminder of my dear friend, Benjamin Yorke Edgell.
RIP Ben. You were loved by many, you'll be missed greatly.
So long...
It was also played at my dear Brothers Funeral 2 weeks ago too..He loved this song so much 💕
My Dad passed away 10 years ago today. He loved this song. Miss you Dad great song. x
I wish such songs and melodies were made today, but after the 2000s I have not heard such beautiful melodies and harmonies. Still waiting for some perfect tunes like this to pop up
I still cannot truly comprehend the great loss of Evangelos Odysseas Papathanassiou.
From the very beginning he has helped me through many tumultuous parts of my life by giving my soul such peace as I have found nowhere else.
I will miss him till my dying day, and mourn the fact he will create no more.
It's a beautiful song I was 12 years old when I bought it on 7 inch vinyl Woolworths newquay 1982 Im 50 now
o hell yes another blast from past woolies. bought all my records a cassettes there. great memory.

Então já me acusou de tanta coisa sem nem saber nada sobre mim.
@@marconiparello # Achei muito sutil e singela sua resposta a este " desinformado " .

Dia antes do desencarne dele ( postei em vídeo ) , desconhecia estar doente , fui ficando estranha , olhar parado , fui ao médico ( estranho !!! ) só 2 dias após soube do acontecido .

RIP Vangelis your a legend and your music will live forever
Rest in peace legend, thank you for your work. Vangelis is one of the best composers of all times.
Brilliant simplicity yet catchy - like e.g. Mike Oldfield.
I know Jon’s brother, Tony, also a musical genius and committed Christian. Clearly proud of his brother whose musical career is still going strong.
Cool, how did he feel about bigfoot and the loch ness monster? As you are listing irrelevant magical crap that his relatives believe I thought I'd ask.
@@AnyoneCanSee No need for that at all. Have a word with yourself.
@@AnyoneCanSee The Bible predicts the future with 100% accuracy.
@@RobinYork123 - No it doesn't. Don't be ridiculous. The Bible supports slavery, says you can stone your own child to death, says to execute gays. It is a book written by people with little or no understanding of science or the rest of the world.
In parts, they suggest the earth is flat despite the ancient Greeks understanding it wasn't. The writers think humans were the first life on earth, that the earth is only around 6000 years old. They don't mention a single animal or people not known locally.
And they certainly don't predict the future.
Give me an accurate clear example of The Bible predicting anything that later happened. And don't list something that the Bible says Jesus predicted and then it came true. I mean something that the Bible said in print that later happened. And not some vague prophecy of war or disease, which anyone can predict as they happen all the time.
@@AnyoneCanSee
Prophecies fulfilled by Jesus Christ.
There were over 300 prophecies fulfilled in the person of Jesus Christ.
The Bible has many that were written thousands of years before Jesus was born.
Precise, detailed prophecies such as; where He would be born (Micah 5:2), how He would be born, (Isaiah 7:14) how He would die (Psalm 34:20.)
History has proven, without any doubt whatsoever, they were fulfilled exactly as that Amazing Book (the Bible) had prophesied, hundreds of years earlier.
In the book, “Science Speaks,” mathematician and scientist, Peter Stoner, applies the rules of probability to these prophecies.
The chances of just eight of these three hundred prophecies being fulfilled are 1 in 10 to the 17th power; that's:
1 in 100,000,000,000,000,000!
Compared to:
The odds of someone being struck by lightning are:
1 in 709,260.
The odds of winning the Kentucky Lottery are:
1 in 5,245,786. 2
Picking the 6 right numbers in 49 number Lottery:
1 in 13,983,816.
In the book, “Science speaks,” Professor Stoner, illustrates:
Let us try to visualize this chance, suppose that we take 10 to the 17th power silver dollars and lay them on the face of Texas.
They will cover all of the state two feet deep, now mark one of these silver dollars and stir the whole mass thoroughly, now blindfold a man and tell him he must pick up one silver dollar.
What chance would he have of getting the right one? Just the same chance that the prophets would have had of writing these eight prophecies and having them all come true in any one man.
Science Speaks, pages 106 + 107.
Professor Stoner, then took 48 of these over 300 fulfilled prophecies, only one-sixth, the chances of the 48 being fulfilled are 1 in 10 to the 157 power, that's 1 in 10 with 157 zeros! Or, illustrated:
That's:
1 in 10,000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000.
Here's how Professor Stoner illustrates:
Let us try to visualize it. . . The electron is about as small an object as we know of. It is so small that it will take 2.5 x 10 to the 15th power of them laid side by side to make a line, single file, one inch long. If we were going to count the electrons in this line one inch long, and counted 250 each minute, and if we counted day and night, it would take us 19,000,000 years to count just the one-inch line of electrons. . . With this introduction, let us go back to our chance of 1 in 10 to the157th power. . . Let us make a solid ball of electrons, extending in all directions from the earth to the distance of six billion light-years (the distance that light will travel at 186,000 miles a second in 6,000,000,000 years). Have we used up our 10 to the 157th power electrons? No, we have made such a small hole in the mass that we cannot see it. Now, one of these electrons was marked and thoroughly stirred into the whole mass; blindfold your man and ask him to find the marked electron. (The electron, in fact, is so small that it cannot be seen with a powerful microscope.) To the extent, then, that we know this blindfolded man cannot pick out the marked electron, we know that the Bible is inspired.
- Science Speaks, pg. 109 - 111
Still waiting and praying Jon finds his way home. There's only one home. That of Jesus Christ who created us for His glory. Only one way to Him, repentance and faith in His reconciliation with God through suffering on the cross. Knowing And obeying Christ is real freedom and life forever. May Jon find it before it's too late.
Amen
Hallelujah… praise the Glorious name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ 🙏
Amin!
This is so wonderful a glorious tune too. From 1981 had the words to it in smash hits too. Later had it on cds too. Great thank you too.
immortal song! thx u giants!
One of the most beautiful pop songs ever. 2 amazing men. What a combination. Haunting.
🙂
Not sure why, but i like listening to this at Christmas
Me too. It just seems to fit.
Me too 😅! Always thought this sounded perfect for the festive season for some reason.
Me too its 20th December 2024
Merry Christmas to you@madmarkc275
Fantastic RIP Vangelis..your memory will live on. This song resonates so much with me after my parents death..both passed away within 2 months of each other..this helps me x
This takes me back to Christmas when I was 13 .Such happy memories, now everyone has gone . 😢
Stay strong little one. There are many more memories to come, good memories. Souvenir by the might OMD.
I was 14 when this was released. Hard times for my mum and I. Mum never earned much but we had a little cottage in Wales which came with her job. Life was sometimes a little difficult but it was nonetheless a happy time and I look back and it makes me smile. Sadly all my family are now gone, my mum and dad, uncles and aunts. It's life and we all have to face it at some point. I'm lucky that I have a great woman to help me and two great kids.
I hope you are not alone and that you have some support during difficult times. Good Luck
