Time goes by so quickly that we don’t realise where it’s gone. Last week, we took a trip down memory lane and visited times gone by, good and bad, but came to a realization, and in this video I’ll share what that was. Has time gone by so quickly for you too?

Who is The Sandscratcher?
My mission is simple: To share stories, life lessons and my love of music & TV....oh yeah, and anything else I find of interest!
My channel is where I'll share my memories, chat about life in general and share my love of music, old films and more.
What you won't find is my thoughts on politics, religion and such like as I've always believed them to be personal.
Here, it's all about sharing those things I've learned through the years, and remembering events that have stayed with me.

I don't think gen Z onwards will have that type of nostalgia with music. Music, tv, film used to be very unique to its era.
You’re right because my youth was always with portable radio or cassette Walkman I wonders if the you tube show that started your memory going back to 1970 year in music -was it the David Atkinson channel it’s up to 1980 now
I'd agree with that.
No, it was someone else. Steven something. Was great music though
Great video. It definitely makes you think about how much time has gone by. Happy Birthday for Monday! 🎉🎉
Thank you. Much appreciated.
I listen to music from the late 80s and early 90s and it takes me back to better years mellow years. Now that I’m older time does feel like it’s flying faster.
I think it happens to all of us!
@@JamesMurphyYT I agree!
Thank you.
Happy Birthday for Monday 🎉
Thanks Jonathan. We're off to the coast tomorrow.
If got 11 years on you, and in the early 70s, I was music director and DJ at a radio station and I remember a lot of songs from that era including Rock Your Baby. Yes, at 75, time really goes fast. Thanks for the memory....
You're welcome. Thanks for your comment.
You probably remember the band creme brulee
@@glennbeadshaw727 the guys from The League of Gentlemen?
@@glennbeadshaw727 Creme? Yes, with Eric Clapton from the late 60s, In the White Room we used to play that song often.
Very true. Frightening how quickly it goes.
It does go really quickly.
I always think wow this year went so fast why is this the case? My answer: the things I invest my time I'm not engaged that much, I should do more meaningful things to me, memorable things
I think that's probably true for many of us.
I had that same conversation with my mom years ago and she was right although at the time I didn’t believe her either. Music from different eras always bring back memories of what I was doing or who I was with and it’s wonderful. Thanks for the lovely video and Happy Birthday to you! Enjoy your day and keep up the good work!😃👍🥳🎂
Our parents were pretty wise. I've been collecting my Dad's LPs again. Thanks.
Always fantastic videos you give to make us think. I find that the music I always want to go back to is from my younger days. Not always pleasant memories. There is a Cat Stevens song that brings back memories of heartache. I can listen to the Andrews Sisters and have a good cry. But that's before my time. Of course many songs that bring back happy memories. Why else would we listen? In the 60's the pop charts were torn between what the parents wanted and what us kids wanted. It was easy to choose sides. There really was no choice.
I love the Andrews Sisters. My parents used to play their songs a lot of the time.
Being Mir Bist Du Schoen is favourite.
I'm glad you're finding my videos of value. Thanks.
Happy Birthday! May this be the best trip around the sun EVER!! Music and smells always take me back. I'm surprised daily that I'm still around.
Music always does it for me. The smell of diesel reminds me of being on fairgrounds when I was a child.
Thank you.
Hi! Tim from the new retired me "brought" me to uour channel. I was born in late 1974, and I often think/feel that time has sped up the last 10 to 15 years. I always think that's because we are settled in more or less of a routine. We have already finished school/university, we got married, had kids, the important moments you strive to achieve are done...maybe that's the reason. Greetings from Portugal!
Hi Sofia, nice to meet you. I'm pleased to say that Tim is just like he is on video. It was good to meet him.
I know where you're coming from. Life semmes to speed up every year.
It only seems tow minutes ago that we welcomed this new year in.
Thanks for checking my channel out.
I hope to speak to you again.
Speaking "quantitatively" it's because each year is a smaller fraction of your life and thus feels relatively shorter. When you were 5 years old, a year was 20% of your existence...so when they said "your birthday is next year" it basically meant NEVER lol. Now when someone says "next year" it's 1/42nd of my life and thus feels like they mean tomorrow!
Never thought of it like that!
Thanks for the drive. A major bit of multitasking there. I coluld never drive and concentrate that much on putting together a vid. What a wonderful time to be alive, to be able to revisit the music of the past. Just think, in days back much of the music went the way of the composer or performer. And, alot of times, if you didn't play it, you didn't listen to it. I'm going to try to leave a Birthday message in the next comment. Should it not take, then Happy Birthday!!!

Thnk you much appreciated.
yes months seemed like years when younger , now years seem like months
I know. It's crazy isn't it?
Thanks for your videos buddy, they always make me smile and nod my head in agreement! Music is definitely a tangible way to time travel.
I'm glad they strike a chord with you. Thank you.
I enjoyed this video with the driving around! It’s cool to see England in real life like that.
I’m 28 and I admit, I feel like you did with your mom, I don’t believe time will go by faster! But, I know I will realize like you did that it certainly will. Thanks for making this video and providing me with some much needed perspective.
I’m also trying to walk every day since I was inspired by your weight loss video a few months ago! Love the channel and hope you’re also doing well health-wise
Also, I’m just curious, do you currently live in the same town/area that you grew up in? I’m not sure I’ve heard you mention it before
No I don't live in the area I was born.
I'm about 75 miles from there, but before I moved here, I was 200 miles away on the South coast.
Can relate about the music. Good video.
Thank you.
What I'm oddly noticing this summer is how much extra sun hrs we're _supposed_ to have, but it's already 9pm.
I'm just not feeling these 'long days of summer' as being particularly long. Hours are more like half hrs lately.
I don't feel that we've had a great summer.
We've had a lot more rain this year and the nights have drawn in at 9pm but it doesnt feel like it's been along hot summer day.
@@JamesMurphyYT true. Been a letdown with the summer. I reckon September will be better. Like last year.
@@matthewmedley8532 I do hope so, although.its lovely today here.
I tried clicking my fingers but me arthritis is killing me
Age dear boy...age!
It's because we are living in a simulation.
👽👽
I'm living something...sometimes I just don't know what
funny you asked. No. I feel like I would rather be done with it. And I do not say in the negative way.
I'll take your word. I wish you the best.
