When this song was released in 1973, I was 17 & a heavy rock fan...but when I heard it, it blew me away, but I never had the courage to tell my mates that I liked it ! I played it on a juke box in the local pub, & when the outcry started, as to who put it on...I lust kept my head down !! Possibly the most beautiful song ever written.
I heard this first when I was 15, It sort of influenced my life, I heard more of his songs and tried to live a gentle life. A year later I met my wife. We lived a gentle life, a loving life for 40 years and 1 day. I now live alone with half a soul but listening to this music. Thank you Clifford.
Hello - I first heard this song whilst still at school. At the end of the road was the most beautiful girl from a poor one parent family named Gaye. I went to a friend's house one night and there was Gaye! Sadly she took her life a few months later. This beautiful, sad song therefore has a special place for me. You may live by yourself but you still have Your Soul and a 1000 wonderful memories and Still, you have the Love of your Wife.
In the seventies we were so lucky to have such talented singer/songwriters like Clifford t Ward. What a pity he never seemed to get the acclaim he deserved.
I really loved this song too. I remember buying the 45rpm and playing it so often, I was about 14 or 15. I was so pleased to find it online today and hear it again after all these years. 26 November, 2023
I thought Clifford T Ward was an absolutely wonderful singer song writer and was greatly underestimated! The song Gaye was a hit when I was still at school and I remember playing it over and over when it first appeared. I love the song as I do so many of Clifford's beautiful songs! Thank you so much for allowing us all to enjoy!
I heard this on the radio a few times when it was out,as well as Scullery and (I Wish I Had the) Wherewithall. I would have been about 8 or 9 back then.
I cannot listen to this heart-rending beautifully haunting song with its'emotional impact,without bursting into tears! Its breathlessly wonderful!!This should have been a world wide success!!!!
Odd really Gerald, I'm a Gerard and I met a Gaye in 1968 in London, unbelievably her name was Gaye Heart, an Australian stewardess with QANTAS. We met, had a coffee and a chat for about an hour and went on our different ways, but I like to think we both regretted not getting the other's phone number, I know I did.
Em 1973 eu tinha 16 anos e é claro que apreciei muito esta música. Lendo os comentários em inglês, fui informado de que Clifford morreu em 2001, após sofrer de esclerose múltipla durante 20 anos. Concordo com os que disseram que o nome dele ainda vai figurar entre os maiores poetas da língua inglesa. Pena que a obra dele é pouco conhecida por aqui. Gaye é apenas uma pequena amostra do que ele sabia fazer. Que ele descanse em paz, e é uma pena que tenha ido embora tão cedo.
I was a pupil at North Bromsgrove High School when Clifford was a teacher there. Whilst he never taught me, I am in his debt. I was told by a senior teacher to get my hair cut because it was longer than school rules allowed. I answered back that my hair wasn't as long as Mr Ward's and I was therefore allowed to keep my flowing locks.
Wow, Peter, nice riposte to the senior teacher! LOL Well done! I was born in Oct 1961 and I had very long hair then as well, didn't everyone? Forgive my nosiness but did you have many dealings with 'Mr Ward' Best wishes, Mark
@@MrMpyne I was in 6th form doing the 3 sciences when Clifford arrived at the school. I think he taught guitar to a few pupils but he had no involvement with the extra-curricular activities I was involved in. I can't recall ever having spoken to him at all. I just monitored the length of his hair!
a como eu queria ter uma máquina do tempo, só para voltar a esta época dourada, cheia de lindas canções e melodias !!!!! é sair deste apocalipse de funk,axe,e tantos outros ritmos que só tem putaria, e violência!!! á quem dera!!!!!!!
Lembro-me de meu saudoso irmão José Carlos ("Carlinhos"), que ficava em casa, em frente a uma janela praticamente o dia todo, em Piraju, interior de São Paulo. Ele era cadeirante, mas sempre tinha o que fazer e como a janela era baixa, alguns amigos paravam lá para conversar com ele, que punha em um pequeno toca-discos os sucessos daquele tempo, inclusive um compacto que tinha essa música. Ele falava inglês fluentemente e o pessoal pedia traduções, o que fazia com prazer! Tenho muita saudade daquela época e meus doze anos de idade! Sem maldades, só alegria e muito romantismo!
Clifford's songs are timeless. Clifford conveys such tenderness diffidence and vulnerability with his voice. For the great legacy he has left us with his recorded compositions I thank him and hope he has found a rich eternal reward. RIP Clifford.
One of the wonderful tracks of my early twenties. I remember him being a teacher, and I remember the impact this song had on everyone at the time. I bought his albums, Home Thoughts From Abroad was fabulous, and I remember his MS and eventual very sad death. Above all though I remember his wonderful music, and the words of his songs. He seemed far too nice a person for the pop world and he probably was. I miss his gentility.
Caramba...74 quando servi o exercito e tirava guarda lá na guarita atrás do quartel na maior escuridão da madrugada escutava essa maravilha no radinho de pilha vermelho............o tempo é implacável mais é necessário para as boas lembranças.Obrigado "SENHOR DEUS".!
I was walking past the Golden Discs record shop on O'Connell Street in Dublin in 1977. I heard Gaye playing inside. I stopped and listened. I bought Home Thoughts From Abroad on the spot :) Clifford, a beautiful poet and song master. And also so so sad. Thank you Clifford x
muitas lembranças... as festinhas que todo inicio de ano, nas férias, tinha em minha casa, - era coca-cola, run, e cachorro quente - o que queríamos era dançar de rosto colado... tempos que não voltam e não vemos hoje em dia em lugar algum... - anos 70 os melhores
Such a beautiful, haunting love song from the much missed, talented singer/songwriter. Taken way too soon. Every time I listen to this it takes me straight back (in a millisecond) to when I was 11 years old in 1973. Thanks for the wonderful music that you left us, Clifford...
Lovely tunes that brings back so many memories sung by a singer, songwriter that passed away far too soon and without getting the credit he deserved. This music stays in my heart.
Nossa demais.... isso q é música orgulho de viver esta época romântica ... tadinho já não está mais entre nós mais deixou esta pérola linda pra gente curtir e viajar no tempo! obrigado a quem postou😘
Eu, mas que música bonita rapa, tô aqui me arrepiando e marejando os olhos. Que música divina de linda. Pela melodia deve ser ano de 1972, 1973, 1974 por ai. Amo essas músicas americanas lentas do início dos 70, pois são lindas, melodiosas e as melhores de todos os tempos.
I let the love of my life go as well in 1975 (I was 13 but desperately in love with her) but despite 'building myself up' to speak to her many times, I just could not follow through. Her friends badgered me for ages to speak to her, telling me that she felt about me the same as I did about her but even that did not get me over the line. What a fool, eh? I still think of her know, almost 50 years later, wondering what might have happened. Cheers, Mark
Lembro de 1973, de uma moça por quem fiquei super apaixonado, hoje por acaso vi essa palavra e depois de 49 anos volto a lembrar, foi ótimo, o que eu daria para voltar no tempo, a gente até sofre mas a juventude é fabulosa!
He must have been a lovely kind and caring man from the lyrics of all his songs this what they portray,real love songs with meaning,what a great loss you are Clifford T to this world
Sick of hearing this distorted sounding recording of one of the most beautiful records of all time . Someone get this sorted out and re release it as the beautiful recording it always was . God Bless , Clifford T Ward. Rest in Peace.
Meados de 1973, Brasília. Estava almoçando no Conjunto Nacional e me deparei com essa linda música, ouvindo-a na Gabriela Discos. Foi amor à primeira vista. Comprei o CD, e ainda hoje me emociono ao ouvi-la. Tantas saudades!!! 😭
Me too. It has haunted me over the decades. It's so beautiful and I love the strings in the introduction. It's sad, but then I have always loved sad songs that no one else likes.
This is a great bit of songwriting I first heard I was about 11-12. Then rejected all stuff similar for years as i closed my mind to anything that weren't (punk) rock. Then I got old. Beautiful song.
Gaye Won't you let me have a say In the way you behave I won't last another day If you decide to go away. You're the tray of nice things I upset yesterday The display of bright rings I let slip away. Oh Gaye You allay my every fear In a most extraordinary way If I thought that I could find my way without you I would not ask you to stay. You're the tray of nice things I upset yesterday The mainstay of my dreams That I let slip away. Gaye Won't you let me have a say In the way you behave I won't last another day If you decide to go away. Don't go away Oh please stay Don't go away Please stay.
Sat as a kid in a container truck with a neighbour driving, when Manchester Liners were going, down the ship canel in Wire Town, i was 11, this was on the radio, just a beautiful record,
Faz mais de 30 anos que eu apaixonada por essa música,não me canso de ouvir Cantou facilmente,não precisou se esgoelar pra cantar,por conseguencia não irrita os ouvidos. Por fim,é linda.
I didn't know the singer and his song. Here in Germany he is absolutely unknown. But why. Such a beautiful song. Such a wonderful voice. I love it so much
This reminds me of my late Dad, who always spoke of Clifford T Ward.I have to admit, I only heard this recently on Smooth 70's radio here in the UK. And I finally got why Dad liked him so much. It's a song that I can't get out of my head.
He never had much of an audience or following in the United States, save for Britons living here at the time. He was huge in Europe and South America and that's where I heard this song for the first time. In later years I tried finding the record in the U.S. but no record store employee even knew who he was. Fast forward to the new millennium and by God, someone posted it on RUclips. It would've been a shame for this man not to be discovered by American audiences, even after his passing. Thanks a million for posting it and God bless!
i love Cliffird T Ward and bought his CD greatesthits or something! but it helped me through a very difficult time in my life depression two autistic kids etc! I love 'Gaye' and other hits 'home thoughts from abroad' This man was a genius sadly taken from us young, but he is eternal and should be installed in the Rock and Roll Hall of fame. grateful Noreenx
A very talented and under rated singer/songwriter, Cliff's music is Quintisential English, a very quiet,and private man with a gentile quality about his lovely voice. ive listened to his song's a zillion times over and will continue to do so. Worcestershire and the Music World is poorer without him.God Bless CTW
Regardless of the references above to poets, he is a complete original and there is an awful lot out there to explore and maybe to be covered by other artists. I followed him in the seventies, and more than once heard him on the radio; notably on a radio discussion where I recall him saying that the most important thing in life was love. I was a teenager and felt this was wonderfully adequate, but how true. What a remarkable man. RIP.
Gosto de viajar aqui pelo RUclips e encontrar essas pérolas de raro valor que nos remetem a momentos vividos com emoções intensas. A juventude por si só já é intensa!!!

As he was dying of the cruel disease MS, he would crawl into his home studio to finish his last record.
His is a story of courage and immortal beauty. I am proud to share his name. Thank you for posting this treasure. Consider yourself subscribed.
When this song was released in 1973, I was 17 & a heavy rock fan...but when I heard it, it blew me away, but I never had the courage to tell my mates that I liked it ! I played it on a juke box in the local pub, & when the outcry started, as to who put it on...I lust kept my head down !! Possibly the most beautiful song ever written.
I was t'other way ...I always loved melody and my best friend Dave was a heavy rock fan and got short shrift from him but, was I bothered ? No....!
I think when he appeared at the Castlebar song contest in the late eighties
Yes, beautiful song. And he seems to have been a beautiful soul too. I loved Home Thoughts From Abroad too, maybe even moreso. It was on the 'b side'.
Similar story but it's not the best. Keep your feet on the floor lol
Funny you should say that just the very same happened to me but opened my big mouth and said I liked it and got the piss taken out of me for weeks
I heard this first when I was 15, It sort of influenced my life, I heard more of his songs and tried to live a gentle life. A year later I met my wife. We lived a gentle life, a loving life for 40 years and 1 day. I now live alone with half a soul but listening to this music. Thank you Clifford.
Hope you have been able to keep a gentle life, even with half of you gone.

Surely you ll meet again. And then forever.

The most beautiful love song of all time so underrated 😢
This song cuts me in two.Both my parents loved it and they are no longer with me.Unbelievably gorgeous.God bless your amazing talent Clifford
One of the greatest singer/songwriters ever, never got the breaks, RIP Clifford, sadly missed
He can touch us sO deep with HIS Sad Voice and simultaneously he conveys love and romanticism....it's a love song for The broken hearted...
Thanks
100% poetic, romantic. I wish I'd known him 🥰🥰❤🙏
Linda demais 💞💕💞💕
@@soniamaria5991 tô apaixonada por essa música 😭
Those who dislike this have no love, heart or soul.
This song was played when we said goodbye to my lovely mum at her funeral, she loved this song😥😥😥
😢😢😢😢😢
Muito bom gosto tinha sua mãe e vocês também ,,,ela está, bem sossega o coração 💓
Esse artista já faleceu né? Ouço essa música c imensas sdds dos anos 70, só musicão❤
Genuinely one of the greatest British songwriters ever. This Man should have a statue built for him. A total genius.

Goodness, I’m 67 and had almost forgotten this beautiful song ! How lucky I was to be alive when such music existed
Omg what a Perfect song, sung with the most sincere and lovely voice. Simply beautiful. It breaks my heart with the yearning of times past.
It makes your heart ❤ skip.
Yes ,music certainly tugs at our heart strings and a wish that we could turn back the clock
It just takes me back to my teenage years, it's just a beautiful piece of music 🎶
I thought Clifford T Ward was an absolutely wonderful singer song writer and was greatly underestimated!
The song Gaye was a hit when I was still at school and I remember playing it over and over when it first appeared. I love the song as I do so many of Clifford's beautiful songs!

Maravilhosa ❤ canção.
In the 70's I knew a girl called Gaye who was from Canada, lovely memory lovely track, so long ago, where does the time go?

Terry Wogan introduced me to this song. RIP Terry.
I remember it as well Terry Wogan and Pauly Walters and Clifford T Ward Its a cruel world xx
Love this mans songs.Beautiful words,beautiful music.A wonderful talent gone too soon.Rest in Peace Clifford.
What a wonderful singer this guy was, beautiful words, beautiful ballad.

I've always had my suspicion that this song was written about Gabrielle (Gaye) Raybould. Who was a pupil at the same school when he taught there.
Wow
a como eu queria ter uma máquina do tempo, só para voltar a esta época dourada, cheia de lindas canções e melodias !!!!! é sair deste apocalipse de funk,axe,e tantos outros ritmos que só tem putaria, e violência!!! á quem dera!!!!!!!
Somos dois!
Sentar no colo do meu pai, ser ninada e me sentindo amada.
Perfeito.
hogi so lixo mostrando o rabo ja ta tudo certo uma pouca vergonlha
O RUclips é uma máquina do tempo, você viaja na imaginação, mas, dá uma saudade de lascar peito!
Vdd meu amigo só tem merda hoje em dia
Essa é a chamada lenta da época dancei muito.
Your time in this world was so short, but thank you for sharing incredibly beautiful songs with us. You will never be forgotten..
Every time I hear this I'm back there in 73 listening like it was the first time haunting, beautiful 😢
An absolute classic from 1973 when life was so much better
Essa música é linda demais pena que esse cantor já faleceu muito jovem no ano de 2001 puro romantismo 😁😁💙💙
Sem duvida
Lembro-me de meu saudoso irmão José Carlos ("Carlinhos"), que ficava em casa, em frente a uma janela praticamente o dia todo, em Piraju, interior de São Paulo. Ele era cadeirante, mas sempre tinha o que fazer e como a janela era baixa, alguns amigos paravam lá para conversar com ele, que punha em um pequeno toca-discos os sucessos daquele tempo, inclusive um compacto que tinha essa música. Ele falava inglês fluentemente e o pessoal pedia traduções, o que fazia com prazer! Tenho muita saudade daquela época e meus doze anos de idade! Sem maldades, só alegria e muito romantismo!
Bonita história, essa também fez parte da minha infância.
Excelente gosto por música de verdade, PARABÉNS a família!
Obrigado, linda menina!
Linda você.
Música linda me traz ótimas lembranças
What a gentle spirit.
An inspiration.
Bless you Clifford.
Clifford's songs are timeless. Clifford conveys such tenderness diffidence and vulnerability with his voice. For the great legacy he has left us with his recorded compositions I thank him and hope he has found a rich eternal reward. RIP Clifford.
Essa música é simplesmente divina, perfeita para dançar bem colado e falar de amor bem baixinho .....Só entende quem é romântico.
Agora imagina como é sortudo o cara que tem a chance de fazer isso com uma mulher linda como você!!!
Cláudia Porto
Linda esta música.
Muito
Cláudia Porto é isso ai cláudia só quem viveu esta época boa de músicas lindas sabe o que é saudade do passado.

Hows that! Thanks for sharing
joan smith a legend ... thanks for sharing. He's Divinity !
One of England's best ever song writers. So sad he left us at the young age of 57.
A most underrated singer/songwriter. God bless you Clifford. Your music continues...
Gaye was a very big HIT in Brazil. In the year of 1973 you could listen to the music all day long in a radio.
One word for this beautiful song
Brilliant 👏 ❤
Courage ! Beauty ! Clifford ! 😢💔🙏

Lembro de 1973, de uma moça por quem fiquei super apaixonado, hoje por acaso vi essa palavra e depois de 49 anos volto a lembrar, foi ótimo, o que eu daria para voltar no tempo, a gente até sofre mas a juventude é fabulosa!
Uma das canções mais belas dos anos 1970! Saudades e boas lembranças!
Sim! Os Anos Sessenta e Setenta foram muito melhores que as décadas seguintes em muitas coisas, inclusive em músicas!
Music from a better, gentler time, for me.
one of the most beautiful songs ever.
A beautiful song. Touching. Heartfelt.
I have always loved his songs and his wonderful voice.
One of my mum's favorites..Miss you mum. xx
O que é bom nos momentos das nossas vidas.
Jamais serão esquecidas.

E um momento bom que não vão voltar Saudades vc ta certo ficou so na lembrança

Gaye
Won't you let me have a say
In the way you behave
I won't last another day
If you decide to go away.
You're the tray of nice things
I upset yesterday
The display of bright rings
I let slip away.
Oh Gaye
You allay my every fear
In a most extraordinary way
If I thought that I could find my way without you
I would not ask you to stay.
You're the tray of nice things
I upset yesterday
The mainstay of my dreams
That I let slip away.

Won't you let me have a say
In the way you behave
I won't last another day
If you decide to go away.
Don't go away
Oh please stay
Don't go away

I remember this from my high school days in England 1973 ... how time flies! Great music from Clifford T Ward,.. thanks!
Music of heaven...no words, Just tears...Beautiful. .R.I.P.
Yes...tears. cant listen without the tears flowing.An exceptional song from a pure heart.
So beautiful, but you left us too soon. R.I.P. Clifford.
I didn't know the singer and his song. Here in Germany he is absolutely unknown. But why. Such a beautiful song. Such a wonderful voice. I love it so much
Nossa, essa música é linda demais, tá louco...fazia tempo que não ouvia...
Sem palavras,so pensamento.
This reminds me of my late Dad, who always spoke of Clifford T Ward.I have to admit, I only heard this recently on Smooth 70's radio here in the UK. And I finally got why Dad liked him so much. It's a song that I can't get out of my head.
Feliz encontrei que tanto procurava alma satisfeita, música linda e eterna bem interpretada
still missed. grew up with this song
Clifford quando cantava essa musica transbordava tristeza da alma!
Just beautiful x

A saudade é tão grande, q/ só me resta chorar de lembranças de um passado q/ nao volta nunca +.
Oi

I was only 12 when this song came out, and didn't appreciate it until many years later
He never had much of an audience or following in the United States, save for Britons living here at the time. He was huge in Europe and South America and that's where I heard this song for the first time. In later years I tried finding the record in the U.S. but no record store employee even knew who he was. Fast forward to the new millennium and by God, someone posted it on RUclips. It would've been a shame for this man not to be discovered by American audiences, even after his passing. Thanks a million for posting it and God bless!
i love Cliffird T Ward and bought his CD greatesthits or something! but it helped me through a very difficult time in my life depression two autistic kids etc! I love 'Gaye' and other hits 'home thoughts from abroad' This man was a genius sadly taken from us young, but he is eternal and should be installed in the Rock and Roll Hall of fame. grateful Noreenx

Maravilhoso rever tudo isso aqui...

Roberto Stephano E porque musica boa fica na nossa memoria para sempre Roberto.
Pior q fui direcionado pra cá só pra chorar de novo 😣😢
A very talented and under rated singer/songwriter, Cliff's music is Quintisential English, a very quiet,and private man with a gentile quality about his lovely voice. ive listened to his song's a zillion times over and will continue to do so. Worcestershire and the Music World is poorer without him.God Bless CTW
Regardless of the references above to poets, he is a complete original and there is an awful lot out there to explore and maybe to be covered by other artists. I followed him in the seventies, and more than once heard him on the radio; notably on a radio discussion where I recall him saying that the most important thing in life was love. I was a teenager and felt this was wonderfully adequate, but how true. What a remarkable man. RIP.
RIP Clifford Thomas Ward (1944-2001), you must have been a wonderful teacher
Quem viveu essa época, sente saudades! Linda melodia!
Mesmo
Dizer mais o que?essa música percorre as entranhas da alma,lembrança de um tempo maravilhoso que não volta jamais
Linda de ouvir ,,, minha adolescência e meus sonhos 2019 🇧🇷♥️
Beautful song
He was as beautiful as the song he wrote, we were very lucky
Great song that never got old.
É pessoal, essa música me remete a minha infância quando eu tinha +/-6 anos.
Irá ficar na minha memoria enquanto eu viver.
Isso sim é musica marcante.
Gosto de viajar aqui pelo RUclips e encontrar essas pérolas de raro valor que nos remetem a momentos vividos com emoções intensas. A juventude por si só já é intensa!!!
Verdade Carminha, eu tambem!
Sim eu também
Muito,Verdade,tmb compartilho, desse sentimento
