I listen to this masterpiece every month... Marvellous is also the performance by Annie Lennox. I go back to the sixties and I feel the vibes I've felt when I was young....
Here I am in 2024, at 67 years old. This is and will always be one of those songs and bands that touch my heart like no other. Awesome doesn’t even come close….. superb , no. I have no words. Hope we have kinder, bluer skies soon in the USA. ✌️
How come you can listen to this song a million times and still get teary eyed and emotional. Memories flood in, tears flood out! Music “back in the day” was “BEST OF THE BEST”. It’s 2024, I’m not 67 and it’s a large pill to swallow. Where did our time go? Oh to be back in the day!
I have been crying every time I listen to it, because I was in the Vietnam during this time of era. I survived in the middle of the conflict. I'm now 74 and in the back yard of my daughter house and got tears in my eyes again listening to it. I'm proud to serve the United States Air force for 20 years. This song was produced 1967
I'm 21. A lot of people are commenting about how they grew up with this song, but I think it's important to know that young people, though we may not have the nostalgia, are still discovering great music like this from generations before us. Songs like this truly are timeless.
@@mannya.6163 I was not born when the band released the song. And I didn’t hear until the Big Chill came out in the early 80s. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve listened since. I bought the soundtrack back then and I’ve probably listened thousands of times. This performance is just next level amazing to me. So haunting and beautiful.
I cannot u still have this on Vinyl so do I , I listen to this recording often it is so Amazing with orchestra , There is no music today that can maatch the 60,s , 70,s , and part of eighty's , I sometimes I wish 18 again and in my college days !! ??
Born in 1957 about to turn 67 even in the early acid days didn't make sense of the lyrics and now as an older man still don't make sense of the lyrics yet this song is part of my soul. Every time it comes up on my playlist, I think there must be 1 million people that feel like me
Me a 67 year old man, 2:46 am. Can't sleep looking at my beautiful wife she’s been battling breast cancer. I broke down, tears came flooding to my eyes. You see this is our song. 43 years with my soulmate.
I am 29 years old. This has been one of my favorite songs since I was about 19 when I first heard it. To all of my older brothers and sisters that I’ve seen in the comments. We may be different in a lot of ways, but hey we connect on this song don’t we? That’s pretty beautiful to me ❤
I am in tears after reading all these comments! We are not that different and why can’t we have peace on earth! Thank you so much Mr. Brooker! RIP!🙏🙏🙏❤️
Je to tím, že dnešní většina mládeže je zmatená. Možná záleží na generacích, které zažily skutečnou přirozenou lásku, která má spoustu podob, aby v současné mladé generaci tu skutečnou lásku k bližnímu a skutečný soucit a respekt, to vše postavené na intuici obnovily/probudily. Kéž všechny bytosti myslí srdcem. 🤍💎
I understand. I was a baby when it was first recorded. I fell in love with it the first time I heard it. But that wasn’t until I got into music as a teenager.
76 and still loving all the music I grew up with.. We most definitely had the best music ever. And this is just a sample of what I consider one of the best songs of my generation. What a superb rendition. Rest in sweet peace Gary Brooker..
Children of today, this was truly great music back in 1967. I was only 12 yrs old and loved this song, I'm now 66 yrs old and still love it. Semper Fidelis
I was only 7 but still remember this song and how it evokes the memories of the summer of 1967, in my case just of playing with my dolls and hop scotch with my friends but the song is still there as the background to that summer. RIP Gary Brooker
I was nearly 30 when this was released... and my on air radio job was playing it. That old clunky early electronic organ sound is hard to surpass though. But this version is really something.
I am at the same age. This song was the last song that I fell in love right after hearing it. My beloved song started with Supper Bird, I was just started to learn Eng, from this you should have known that I was from non English back ground. The music ( super bird) caught me, plus I could understand most of the lyrics, I like it so much so I went to buy the translated songs book to learn more about this song. I have couples more songs in my memory, but to make it shorter I have to go straight to this song. I move to Australia in 1995 when I heard this song , the instrument version, for the first time. It was the sound of Organ that struck me, then I searched for the song and listened to the regular song with the lyrics. I learn more English from this song😂😂😂. I love it until now, never get bore listening to.
Love this song and group! I'm 76 and I listen at least 7-10 a month. My husband passed in 2020 and this was our song. He died from dementia, but he recognized this song as ours till the day he died. We were 18 and so in love,still miss and love him!
Alors que nous regardons lentement les grands s'éloigner, nous pouvons nous estimer si chanceux d'avoir fait partie de cette époque. J'ai maintenant 73 ans et j'écoute encore aussi souvent que possible les nombreuses méga-chansons de notre époque.
Real music isn’t 2 guitars, a drummer, a singer and a piano player. This is real music. I am an expert at 78 years old. Why am I calling myself an expert because I can hear and have listened to music all my life.
A man of my age 73 shouldn’t be crying as I am right! Life has went by at such a fast pace! I missed some of the excitement but I have enjoyed so much great music! This one is right up there with the top. R.I.P. Gary. Your song will never die
Dear one….I’m 72….I saw them at Fiddler’s Green in Denver….probably in 1983……so much more intense in person…grabs your heart and gut….even if you don’t take the time to understand the lyric’s story…..but , it’s a very interesting story.❤️🙏
Well Patrick, be glad to have memories for some(like me-memories are long gone) but music is bringing some back. Times shared with friends that have taken stairway to Heaven-hopefully. Same age as you !
I feel the same. This is a masterpiece. I play this for my friends after they play dubstep and rap but they always tell me thank you for this after hearing it.
4:05 Me a 64 years young lady love this song. My generation is blessed to had artists that have reached down in their souls to perform from their hearts.
I'm 70 years old myself. Scatological language aside, I couldn't agree more. By the way, I heard it through the grapevine that Mr. Brown has got a lovely daughter. Or it could be the Mrs. At my age, the hearing is about shot. I heard it over and over and over again, but the Beltone is in bits and pieces. I'll stop now (in the name of love).
My dad's favourite song . He has passed away (72) 11/09/22. Last Easter he played me this song and he was so excited. I didn't know it is "our" last Easter and song. RIP Dad. Will see you later...
Still listening in 2024. Beautiful beyond words. So many feelings flooding my soul, from childhood memories in the 60s through events leading to today. Chills, tears, memories.
Just was listening to this fine rendition on Saturday to find that he passed on that very day. An extraordinary voice that got better with age. RIP Gary
When I was in highschool and college I listened to this song Over and Over Over Again. It's one of my Alll-time Favorite Songs. I Never Get Tired of Listening To It! Rest In Peace Gary Brooker!
Music like this just does not exist anymore. This is beautiful and his vocals never failed him even at this age. Such a great performance! R.I.P. Gary Brooker
As we slowly watch the greats slipping away we can count ourselves so luck to have been a part of this era. I am 75 now but still listen often to the many mega songs of our time. This song came out my senior year in high school so it is such a beautiful memory for me.
My husband died 4 months ago. He would have been 74 today. There's never been music as great as our generation's. If he were alive I would ask him to dance to this with me....
Maureen, love and hugs to you. I lost my darling wife less than 2 years ago at 58 years young. Heart and liver failure. WE danced to this too. Only problem was it's a bit slow for anything but getting ready for bed !
I turned 74 on April 7th.....I close my eyes...and I am back in the arms of the first "girl" I ever loved...and we are now married coming up on 49 years this August,
😂 I am over 70 And can't get enough of this song thank you all. I have been told I have less than 6mos left on this earth and hope it's pkay aren't end
One of my top 5 favorites. For some reason it makes me think of my beautiful wife. She passed 3-1-2022. We had 31yrs together total of ups n downs but she was a beautiful human being in every way....... Miss her
Always liked this song, but as I age it held much more meaning to me. No sure why,why, It makes me think of all of my family and friends who have passed . To me it is one of the greatest songs of all time. RIP Mr. Brooker...
Still listening in Oct. 2022. Such a beautiful rendition!!! Didn't think it was possible to improve this song! He sounds incredible! Brings me to tears!!!
1967 i was nine ..watched this on top of the pops it was then on the christmas episode of all the best of 67 it was the best time of my life mum betty dad tony brother mick ..sister anne and me chris all watched it wish i was still there and it was still the 60s ....Great song among many great songs
First time I heard this I was cruising down the 5 in LA in my new gray 1967 Chevy 2-door hardtop. (It even had a rear speaker!) It was late at night, and even though the sound was tinny, I recognized this song was special and it’s been a favorite ever since. This version is the absolute best.
My husband's most favorite song ever. He passed away on February 14, 2023 in his sleep. I haven't been able to listen to this song since his death because it hurts so much. But today I decided it's time. I love you my sweet John...rest in peace... until we meet again.
Garry Brookers voice matured like a fine wine over the years…I’m 56 yrs old and got goosebumps and shedding a tear listening to this…music at its purest
One of the most, if not the most, iconic and moving legacy performances ever filmed and recorded. I was in the music business for a long time and I’ve seen a lot of amazing performances. This is on another level.
Yep. I can say so more. I have listened to a lot of live music in my life. This has to be the best ever recorded, out of all genres. I only wish I had been there.
When a song can bring you to tears and you just don't know why! its simply a Masterpiece. Thank you Gary Brooker. You've left us with one of the finest examples of pure art. May you R.I.P.
Als ich 20 Jahre alt war, hörte ich diesen Song zum ersten mal und er verfolgte mich das ganze Leben. Heute bin ich 75 Jahre alt und liebe diesen Song immer noch.
Brings me to tears also and I have no clue why! I thought it was because of something that was going on years ago when I heard the song. But I think it is his voice and the melody that just touches your soul. Amazing.
I have been a professional performer and studio recordist for over 40 years and whoever was responsible for this mix deserves, in my opinion, an award for such an outstanding master. Clamp on some top quality cans and you can hear every instrument. Just superb - and so was the brilliant meld of orchestra, choir, and pop. I am so glad I have livged through this musical time.
@@southparklimo At the moment “Hard Day’s Night” is on TV. I can remember going to the picture show and being beside myself. So in love with those boys!
@@virginiaknighten4687 Oh yeah, most girls were. All of those Beatles and Rolling Stones concerts were the beginning of Rock and Roll and many bands eveolved after that, And I bought many of those albums
RIP - Gary Brooker, the Procol Harum frontman whose soaring vocals on the band's 1967 proto-prog rock classic “A Whiter Shade of Pale” helped make the song a mainstay of 1970s FM radio, died February 19 of cancer. He was 76 - Must be one of the very best songs of all time thank you guys for all the memories
Saw him at small venue at CW Post College on Long Island back in late 1967 or early 68. My first concert…..incredible experience and still with me. RIP Gary Brooker!
I got to see this live on the Johnny Carson show on Friday the 13th. My brother and I had driven down to Tijuana Thursday night and went to every single bar in the city drinking at least one beer in each one. We raced back up to Thousand Oaks and got home shortly after sunrise. I went to the studio and got 2 tickets for the show that night before going home and getting a nap. Leno hosted that night and I was so psyched to see this and whiter shade live! What an awesome 24 hours!

@@lindapearcr3138 This song was timeless and "old" the day it first played on the air.
Has the same effect on me after all these years. Memories of my bachelor days.
It touches my heart and soul every time, I'm writing this tears streaming.

This song never gets old.
Indeed...., and absolutely agree 😊

I am so grateful to have been born mid 50's cause the best music was written and performed in the 50's, 60's. and 70's....a bit of the 80's!!
So true.
Totally agree 💪🍾🥂🚀
Seems like only yesterday but a life time ago - gone in the blink of an eye
Me too!
I was born in 69 and still love the music from those decades plus the 90’s and early 2000’s it’s now I’m kinda not impressed with at all!!

What a superb rendition. Rest in sweet peace Gary Brooker..
What a privilege these folks had to hear this in person. Stunning. Still listening in 2024!
Children of today, this was truly great music back in 1967. I was only 12 yrs old and loved this song, I'm now 66 yrs old and still love it. Semper Fidelis
I was born in 67. I remember my Marine father playing this in the house when I was 5. Loved it ever since. Thank you Marine.
I was 14, and this song still evokes that summer!

Listening to it in 2023 and it's as sweet as it ever was. Rest in peace Gary Brooker. So many legends have passed on without anyone to replace them.
And today's music mostly sucks. None like this masterpiece.
They are legends because they can not be replaced
I'm 78, still listening. Great music never gets old.
Real music isn’t 2 guitars, a drummer, a singer and a piano player. This is real music. I am an expert at 78 years old. Why am I calling myself an expert because I can hear and have listened to music all my life.
Hi William, how are you doing today
A man of my age 73 shouldn’t be crying as I am right! Life has went by at such a fast pace! I missed some of the excitement but I have enjoyed so much great music! This one is right up there with the top.
R.I.P. Gary. Your song will never die
🥺
Good for you you have a great ear for music Almost the same age you and I getting there anyways !! Lol
This song will register in our consciousness, transcending, time, and physical body!
If I can cry over the oldies at age 73 so can you. Go to town and give it hell.
Dear one….I’m 72….I saw them at Fiddler’s Green in Denver….probably in 1983……so much more intense in person…grabs your heart and gut….even if you don’t take the time to understand the lyric’s story…..but , it’s a very interesting story.❤️🙏

Hello friend, how are you doing today
RIP Gary Brooker. Thank you for giving the world this glorious song.
Absolutely! It truly is, a glorious piece of music , oh those WERE the days, weren’t they? 💌
4:05 Me a 64 years young lady love this song. My generation is blessed to had artists that have reached down in their souls to perform from their hearts.
Geweldig
A great combo of rock bank and orchestra. 66 yrs. old and listening in Feb. 2024.
73 yrs for me and this definitely makes me go back….
I'm kinda sad that I'm getting old now but Holy shit boys and girls we had the finest music in our youth. Would not trade that for anything.
You got that right! I'm 67 and that comment nails it!
Same here. I'm 72 and aging sucks, but I'm so glad I was there for all the great music of the 60's and 70's.
We sure did! I’m 71 and so many songs from the 50s, 60s or 70s always brings back memories from a moment in time.
I'm 70 years old myself. Scatological language aside, I couldn't agree more. By the way, I heard it through the grapevine that Mr. Brown has got a lovely daughter. Or it could be the Mrs. At my age, the hearing is about shot. I heard it over and over and over again, but the Beltone is in bits and pieces. I'll stop now (in the name of love).
I'm 67 and the sentiment is the same! From Rome, Italy
My dad's favourite song . He has passed away (72) 11/09/22. Last Easter he played me this song and he was so excited. I didn't know it is "our" last Easter and song. RIP Dad. Will see you later...
❤❤❤
Still listening in 2024. Beautiful beyond words. So many feelings flooding my soul, from childhood memories in the 60s through events leading to today. Chills, tears, memories.
What a beautiful song. Brings back memories of a kinder and different times. Great music and simpler times. Great voice.
Just was listening to this fine rendition on Saturday to find that he passed on that very day. An extraordinary voice that got better with age. RIP Gary
i just wanna let Mr. Brooker know that people in 2021 are still listening to this masterpiece.
it was a mystical song when it came out...and in some ways it still is.. beautiful stuff.
I'll listen ...it is one of my favorite song
Music composed by Gary - lyrics written by Keith Reid ...
Yes, of course!
😘
Listening Feb 2024 and I’m 50….My uncle Roger who passed in ‘99 loved this song and it reminds me of him. Peace.
Listening now. Keep coming back to this recording. His voice is still remarkable.
❤ peace out!
When I was in highschool and college I listened to this song Over and Over Over Again. It's one of my Alll-time Favorite Songs. I Never Get Tired of Listening To It! Rest In Peace Gary Brooker!
Music like this just does not exist anymore. This is beautiful and his vocals never failed him even at this age. Such a great performance! R.I.P. Gary Brooker
As we slowly watch the greats slipping away we can count ourselves so luck to have been a part of this era. I am 75 now but still listen often to the many mega songs of our time. This song came out my senior year in high school so it is such a beautiful memory for me.
Class of 67 here.
Well said
Yes, we are so lucky to have lived through these times of great music and songwriters. Class of '69, here! 😊
75 last week class 68
Me I am 80 my husband I passed 5 months ago this was his music and the classics I missed enjoy enjoy your every day I just have memories thanks ❤

My dad’s favorite! He passed away this year, but I play this song for him everyday!
Bless you, I’m so sorry. This is a great song for remembrance
My husband died 4 months ago. He would have been 74 today. There's never been music as great as our generation's. If he were alive I would ask him to dance to this with me....
Dance on Maureen...Dance on :-)
😊😊I'm very pls to know I'm not the only one that loves😍 💋the song but when last did you play it
Maureen, love and hugs to you. I lost my darling wife less than 2 years ago at 58 years young. Heart and liver failure. WE danced to this too. Only problem was it's a bit slow for anything but getting ready for bed !
I turned 74 on April 7th.....I close my eyes...and I am back in the arms of the first "girl" I ever loved...and we are now married coming up on 49 years this August,
Beethoven, Mozart, Gershwin Porter, Basie
😂 I am over 70 And can't get enough of this song thank you all. I have been told I have less than 6mos left on this earth and hope it's pkay aren't end
One of my top 5 favorites. For some reason it makes me think of my beautiful wife. She passed 3-1-2022. We had 31yrs together total of ups n downs but she was a beautiful human being in every way.......
Miss her
One of the greatest live performances I’ve ever heard.
Yes. This is something special.
One of the best live performances... he was wonderful ❤️
Brings me to tears as he voice sounded just as wonderful as the earliest music videos. So moving: the lyrics, music & Gary's voice. ❤😢 RIP
without a doubt
Always liked this song, but as I age it held much more meaning to me. No sure why,why, It makes me think of all of my family and friends who have passed . To me it is one of the greatest songs of all time. RIP Mr. Brooker...
Still listening in Oct. 2022. Such a beautiful rendition!!! Didn't think it was possible to improve this song! He sounds incredible! Brings me to tears!!!
Me too your grace!

Hi Claire. We spoke b4
First time I heard this I was cruising down the 5 in LA in my new gray 1967 Chevy 2-door hardtop. (It even had a rear speaker!) It was late at night, and even though the sound was tinny, I recognized this song was special and it’s been a favorite ever since. This version is the absolute best.
WOW GREATE SONG, IT SEEMS LIKE YESTERDAY, I STILL LOVE IT, I AM 65 AND I ENJOY LISTENING THIS SONG 🎵 😊 JUST WONDERFUL AMAN, !!!❤❤❤
I loved this song in 1967 .
Now , after 56 years nothing has changed. ❤
agree ❤❤❤
My husband's most favorite song ever. He passed away on February 14, 2023 in his sleep. I haven't been able to listen to this song since his death because it hurts so much. But today I decided it's time. I love you my sweet John...rest in peace... until we meet again.
@@debbiemixon6124
I feel very sad about your loss. It was your husbands requiem. It will be my's too.
@zhyrhabamadeo9602 thank you.
Garry Brookers voice matured like a fine wine over the years…I’m 56 yrs old and got goosebumps and shedding a tear listening to this…music at its purest
One of the most, if not the most, iconic and moving legacy performances ever filmed and recorded. I was in the music business for a long time and I’ve seen a lot of amazing performances. This is on another level.
Yep. I can say so more. I have listened to a lot of live music in my life. This has to be the best ever recorded, out of all genres. I only wish I had been there.
Listening at 85 yrs old. This song has soul.
93 million views.
Even with the Beatles and the Stones this is possibly the greatest song of the 60’s.
What a voice…RIP Gary Brooker 😢
Nearly 95 million. Magnificent
Best song of all time
Without a doubt, Unchained Melody dropped a lot more panties,,,
czcams.com/video/GMkmQlfOJDk/video.html or the 18th century
95 million now
When a song can bring you to tears and you just don't know why! its simply a Masterpiece. Thank you Gary Brooker. You've left us with one of the finest examples of pure art. May you R.I.P.
🥰
Well said.
Amen
E verdade sinto a mesma sensação.
Una grande performance ,per una canzone meravigliosa!😊😍😘🎶🎹🎸🎶💘💓💋💯💯💯🌅
Als ich 20 Jahre alt war, hörte ich diesen Song zum ersten mal und er verfolgte mich das ganze Leben. Heute bin ich 75 Jahre alt und liebe diesen Song immer noch.
Hello friend, how are you doing today
So thankful I was young when a lot of great music came out Like this 🤗 80 now
😂😂😂
Not ashamed to admit this version caused me to shed a few tears. Absoulutely magnificent.
Da bin ich absolut bei Dir !!! Einfach wunderschön!!!
I get goosebumps watching it, it is so touching and bring back good times.
This performance could break toughest heart,its beyond words, beautiful.
Always be the best,Bach would so love it.
This is right up there with Levon’s performance during _The Last Waltz_
2021 and still here !!! Who's with me ?
Yup same here. Love this version. Happy New Year.
1-4 -21 right with ya.
You will never walk alone Tim Terry. Vocal, harmony, organ solo, drum rolls, orchestra man what better song do you need than this.
One of the best songs. 1/14/21
Yep, Toddy from Perth Western Australia is listening....
i first heard this song in 1967, it only gets better with age!!!
Saw in covert once. They are amazing. Im 63. Been listening to them 2024❤
Fabulous!! My God, it always brings me to tears...
me too...
Me too!!!!
Brings me to tears also and I have no clue why! I thought it was because of something that was going on years ago when I heard the song. But I think it is his voice and the melody that just touches your soul. Amazing.
It brings me to tears, because it reminds me of my childhood,
I'll never get back.
yup
This is so Beautiful. Thank you very much Dear God for Procol Harum.
50 years ago this was played at my mates wedding....still magical 😊
Who’s still watching in 2021? Welcome soul tribe! I’ve missed you! ✨✨
Phd in what
@@seanmcdermott70 Piled higher and Deeper..
Right here in Idaho!
Scott in VA is. My parents and Grand Parents danced to this often R.I.P
I’m still here end of 2021. Loved this the first time I heard it in 67. I was 17
Nothing compares today, this is pure magic.
Yes indeed ...Gary, the performance of the orchestra and the entire concert
@@Man_at_work3775 yes it was awesome
Not true, we have martin garrix, we have david guetta, etc. maybe not the same style of music but much better imo
His voice is as clear as it was when this was first recorded! Amazing to say the least. Love it!
@You have to live it How can you compare this to David Guetta? Are you ok?
Absolutely beautiful listening From South East Texas USA 🇺🇸
Going through my cosmic library of ,timeless urban hymns!!. What a performance, this was. May 2024🏴
I have been a professional performer and studio recordist for over 40 years and whoever was responsible for this mix deserves, in my opinion, an award for such an outstanding master. Clamp on some top quality cans and you can hear every instrument. Just superb - and so was the brilliant meld of orchestra, choir, and pop. I am so glad I have livged through this musical time.
I agree. With my headphones or iPods it just sounds utterly stunning!
I use headphones every night and listen to good quality music like this. I grew up in the 60's
@@southparklimo me too. Graduated in 68. I saw a neon sign that read “No Music...No Life.” I wish I had it.!
@@southparklimo At the moment “Hard Day’s Night” is on TV. I can remember going to the picture show and being beside myself. So in love with those boys!
@@virginiaknighten4687 Oh yeah, most girls were. All of those Beatles and Rolling Stones concerts were the beginning of Rock and Roll and many bands eveolved after that, And I bought many of those albums
RIP - Gary Brooker, the Procol Harum frontman whose soaring vocals on the band's 1967 proto-prog rock classic “A Whiter Shade of Pale” helped make the song a mainstay of 1970s FM radio, died February 19 of cancer. He was 76 - Must be one of the very best songs of all time thank you guys for all the memories
Saw him at small venue at CW Post College on Long Island back in late 1967 or early 68. My first concert…..incredible experience and still with me. RIP Gary Brooker!
At 61, I've enjoyed this most of my life. Just grabs me then carries me thru every word!
The song was 55 years ago and he was only 22 years old when he composed it. Amazing.
Just stunning, beautiful orchestration and powerful vocal from Gary Brooker. Made me quite emotional.
I got to see this live on the Johnny Carson show on Friday the 13th.
My brother and I had driven down to Tijuana Thursday night and went to
every single bar in the city drinking at least one beer in each one.
We raced back up to Thousand Oaks and got home shortly after sunrise.
I went to the studio and got 2 tickets for the show that night before going home and getting a nap.
Leno hosted that night and I was so psyched to see this and whiter shade live!
What an awesome 24 hours!
