Fascinating background info! Thank you. I actually fell in love with this song from my fisher price toy as a toddler. Now, as a musician I have come here to learn it.
Interesting. I have one of these clocks in my house after my granny. It has the name Wm Hopkin Llandilo on the dial. No idea what it means (is this the maker or the owner?) or how old it is!
I haven't heard this song played in over 50 years, but it was a song I had to sing when I was in junior high school. The music teacher was one of my favorites, and this song has always remained in my heart. Thanks for posting this!
as a nightguard at a pizza place, this saved me from some weird looking puppet falling out of its box. idk why the puppet falls out when the song isn't played but if it means the doll doesn't get damaged i'll play it all night
Hey how's the nights going? I've heard of rumors that nightguards used to go missing in old locations of the pizza place, hope you doing a good job bud
My 89 year old mother had inhered her father's grandfathers clock. When he died she kept the clock at her house. When she died I got to have my favorite clock and it now stands graciously in my living room. I am 86 yrs. old (2022) now and love being able to pull up the chimes every day. At my mother's we sang this song a lot! Now I and my kids still sing it, a lot! I'm so glad, I love this terrific song, Thanks so very, very much!!! God bless and you're in my daily prayers now. Jean Grasse Dickman 87 in the coming July
I got one recently, also came with this gift box that wouldn't open if the music box was playing. What is strange is that we I found it open the first night, nothing was inside. Probably nothing.
My father died last month and he sang this to me so many times. He was 82. Apparently his grandfather had sung it to him.I had no idea this song is so old. Thanks a bunch for posting this.
In 1962, when I was born my father bought my mother a hand crafted Grandfathers clock. It took over a year for the works to be imported from Germany. It was the centerpiece of our living room as I grew up and dad wound it religiously every week. The clock wound down and stopped precisely at the time of his death. It is now in my home and my most prized possession. Thank you for the full song. It is rare to hear it all. The tune has been a favorite of mine since childhood.
I cant get this song out of my head. I knew it when the few people who cared about me were still alive before they all passed and I know where the legend comes from as well. The head of the house was the only person only allowed to wind the clock in the 19th century. When they died that wad it. The clock stopped. Like life. 😔
I am so glad to have found this. My sister received one of those Fisher Price Teaching Clock. It had a nice melody. One night my mother wound up the clock and started singing words to the clock. She had a beautiful voice. She was a music person, piano and organ. She has been gone since 2020 due to Covid. Years later, after my sister had grown, she gave the clock to my brother for his sons. So when I saw one at a thrift store I knew I had to have it. Now hearing all the words, it brings my mother back to life, even for a few minutes.
@@davefoot If he knew Czech enough, he might know the Czech root word robota, but that wouldn't really help you because it meant "forced labor," so you'd STILL have to properly define robots. Could use the word automata though, since that has been a term since the 1600s and has roughly meant "lifeless device acting on itself" for the longest time.
I was one of the saddened ones when you took this song down before and I messaged you about my newborn loving this song and it being the only thing that would calm her down some nights. She's three years old now, and we just rocked while she listened to this song again. To this day, she loves it! Thank you so much! 💖 Edit to add: baby 3 is 3 months old. She's been fussy (was sick with Covid, like our whole house), and wouldn't stop crying. I thought of this song, and it out her right to sleep as well. I can't thank you enough for this!
If you think about it, The lyrics of this song might have actually inspired Scott to make the music box in FNAF 2. The song says that the clock stopped and never went again when the old man died. In FNAF 2, If the music box stops, the player dies. In addition, the line, "90 years without slumbering" references the fact that FNAF involves working a night shift. If you think about it, all the people who worked at the Freddy Fazbear's locations probably got insomnia. They were haunted by the horrors that they got while working, which prevented them from sleeping much.
That’s a cool way to look at it! I kinda feel like the parts where they describe how the clock is a great servant is like describing the puppet. It only wants the music box wound, always has a smile on its face. The idea that it’s a machine linked to a person’s soul is conceptually pretty similar to the franchise as a whole.
My grandfather passed away when i was six. He also owns a vintage pendulum clock and it still works until now. Now i'm 19 and i remember him everytime i heard this song. I miss him❤
My grandfather's clock was too large for the shelf So it stood ninety years on the floor It was taller by half than the old man himself Though it weighed not a pennyweight more It was bought on the morn of the day that he was born And was always his treasure and pride But it stopped, short never to go again When the old man died Ninety years without slumbering His life seconds numbering It stopped, short never to go again When the old man died My grandfather said that of those he could hire Not a servant so faithful he found For it wasted no time and had but one desire At the close of each week to be wound And it kept in its place, not a frown upon its face And its hands never hung by its side But it stopped short, never to go again When the old man died It rang and alarmed in the dead of the night An alarm that for years had been dumb And we knew that his spirit was pluming for flight That his hour for departure had come Still the clock kept the time with a soft and muffled chime As we silently stood by his side But it stopped short, never to go again When the old man died Ninety years without slumbering His life seconds numbering It stopped short, never to go again When the old man died ._. nothing just because I wanted to sing along
My grandfather loved this song. If he'd lived just a little bit longer, he'd have made his 90th birthday. I've never actually heard a recording of it, just family sing alongs, so thank you for sharing.
When I was a kid we used to sing this great old song in school. I'd forgotten about it until RUclips showed it. It was wonderful to hear it and sing along with it after all these years.
I'm nearly 70 years old and first heard this beautiful song at age 7 in my second grade class when our teacher taught it to us, but only right now have i found out it was written by the author of "Marching Through Georgia" and "Nicodemus The Slave". Those are such different songs.
I haven't heard this song since I was at primary school. I had no idea of its origin and I didn't know when it was written. This song still sounds good after all this time!
I always used to play this on my cheap keyboard as a tween. I have always loved these old-timey songs. I remember a video of me as a baby of my great grandfather singing along to this song to a music box I was playing with. He passed away at 90 as well.
My Grandmother had a song book...treasured old favorites...Aunt Dinah's Quilting Party was our second favorite, but this was the best! I used to sing it with her while she played guitar or piano, and she couldn't get to the end of the chorus without crying. We would both start laughing, but she would laugh and cry her way through the rest. Now she has passed on a year and a half ago, at almost 90 years old, and I am the one crying - and laughing, in sweet memory of her...ALL the way through the song!
Was out today and heard this song being whistled. Havnt heard it since I was young but recognized it straight away. If I had any kind of singing voice I would have sung along with the whistler
My baby sitter, in childhood taught me When The Old Man Died, and I was surprised to find the words and music here on RUclips. I should not have been really. Never have I seen such an archive of everything, as here on RUclips.
I've known this song since I was young, but it wasn't until fairly recently that I learned it had the fourth verse. I know the rest of it by heart, so now I'll have to listen to it over and over so I can learn the words of the fourth verse. I never realized that it was written so many years ago.
I learned how to play this on the piano when I was a little kid. Even at a very young age, this song always made me sad and wistful. Nice to listen to it here.
I've heard a few country music stars perform this song. Your recording is the best I've heard. An aside, Rod Serling had an entire Twilight Zone episode based off of this song.
by Henry Clay Work I don't know why, but this song raises some serious emotions in me. It's a beautiful song that tells a great story, and Tom's rendition of it is perfect.

Great job Tom!
Thank You, Mr!
My grandfather's clock was too large for the shelf
So it stood ninety years on the floor
It was taller by half than the old man himself
Though it weighed not a pennyweight more
It was bought on the morn of the day that he was born
And was always his treasure and pride
But it stopped, short never to go again
When the old man died
Ninety years without slumbering
His life seconds numbering
It stopped, short never to go again
When the old man died
My grandfather said that of those he could hire
Not a servant so faithful he found
For it wasted no time and had but one desire
At the close of each week to be wound
And it kept in its place, not a frown upon its face
And its hands never hung by its side
But it stopped short, never to go again
When the old man died
It rang and alarmed in the dead of the night
An alarm that for years had been dumb
And we knew that his spirit was pluming for flight
That his hour for departure had come
Still the clock kept the time with a soft and muffled chime
As we silently stood by his side
But it stopped short, never to go again
When the old man died
Ninety years without slumbering
His life seconds numbering
It stopped short, never to go again
When the old man died
