The Ed Sullivan Show was a television variety program that aired on CBS from 1948-1971. For 23 years it aired every Sunday night and played host to the world's greatest talents. The Ed Sullivan Show is well known for bringing rock n' roll music to the forefront of American culture through acts like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones. The entertainers each week ranged from comedians like Joan Rivers and Rodney Dangerfield, to Broadway stars Julie Andrews and Richard Burton, to pop singers such as Bobby Darin and Petula Clark. It also frequently featured stars of Motown such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder and The Jackson 5. The Ed Sullivan Show was one of the only places on American television where such a wide variety of popular culture was showcased and its legacy lives on to this day.

I was nine or ten years old when Mary Hopkins was on the radio. Her voice instantly transports me to a better time.
You and me both! Maybe I'll see you there!
A time when you were young, care free and had no responsibilities.
Cute and proper girl
Thank you. Much better for families and loved ones.
Same! I used to sing her songs by myself in the shower. Aah those were the days! I love this one most though!
Just beautiful... No any tatoos...
You don't know that for a fact.
Back then, only biker chicks and hookers had tattoos. Then again, they would only have one or two of them, not hundreds.
She is happy being her
^no tattoos
When I was young, the only people who had tattoos were a)prostitutes, b)sailors, c) bikers.
It was 1978, I was 19. I was in my van in Wargrave, near Reading. Who do I spot looking for a parking space? So I smiled at her and moved out so that she could take my space. She gave me a lovely smile.
Haha! I started reading your comment, and in my mind, I thought you must be pretty old by now, before I realized that I was also 19 that year! How cool, though. She does look like a very sweet person.
@@ivonav3751 I'm 65. I guess she must be about 10 years older than me. She did look very pretty that day, that's why she caught my eye. But at that age virtually every female caught my eye!
Funny thing, memory. I remember the exact spot - outside (opposite) the Woodclyff Hostel in Church Street. God, I wish I could go back! The things I would change, the life I would have! I would still marry the same woman, though. 43 years together, and there would never have been anyone else. I am not spiritual, but I do think it's odd that we found each other.

@@barryfoster453thanks for setting a good example.
Paul gave her a song and signed her story apple
This is why the sixties were a good time for music.
For me are the sixties the best decade of music
@@stevediederich9830 I would argue the 60's was the last decade for good music. :)
I've always been curious what ruined music. I think mostly the corporate buyout of the radio. What's telling I've heard about 19 people one third my age that think the 60s music was better.
@@robertpolnicky7702 They did away with orchestras and went to small bands or single guitars. Melody gone forever.
those were the days my friend
We thought they’d never end.
@@Edcarpenter67❤
We'd sing and dance forever and a day....🎉
I remember this was on at moms house not sure what year,sure seems so long ago now 😢
These ARE the days, my friend, and they're not going to end.
Just checked her via Wiki and she is alive! Wonderful, I wish her very happy life indeed! USA
From a time when people were satisfied with simple things, and we got joy from listening to lovely music like this, how I miss those times.
simple is best.
from japan
Those were the times my friend
Facts!
Hardly a simple time.
@@t.k3025
Explain why ? What is your opinion based on.
Such a beautiful voice. Brings back lots of memories.
... HOMELY 1:04
From a time life was not so complicated
Really!? Vietnam was in full swing!
Ah, but we were all younger then.
Those were the days, my friend!
👍🏻
I wished they never end'ed.
Indeed!🇺🇸
It is a clon of that one yes!
"Those Were The Days" was #1 in the UK and #2 on the U.S. Billboard Top 100 in 1968. Yes, Those were the days.
My gosh she was beautiful!
Pure beauty in every way, absolutely stunning voice
McCartney had such a knack for writing great material. So great he could give away gems like this one.
1968 ..... : White album, Yellow submarine, Let it be, Abbey road and Good bye, Good bye
But the words match her voice and perspective as a young women in love. If it had been a Beatles track...
matches the original note for note.
@@TechToWatch ["But the words match her voice and perspective as a young women in love. If it had been a Beatles track..."] Search youtube for "Paul McCartney goodbye" and you'll find a demo of this song he signs.
@@TechToWatchThere's a demo of Paul McCartney singing, which is the same one he sent to Mary Hopkins if I recall correctly.
I loved Mary Hopkins voice!!!!!
They don't make um like that anymore. Nice warm memory. Thanks
Great time to return to something wholesome 🎉
🎉
Good heavens, I'm in my 60s and don't know this song at all! Just lovely!
First time I’ve heard it too,lovely song,simple ,
I was a top 40 DJ at the time, this is one of the songs I can still enjoy listening to. I've never seen this video though, I rarely watched TV.
You might be about 10 years too young. I'm 70 and recall this song with great fondness.
Mary was so talented, so classy and so beautiful. She always looked and sounded like the sweetest thing ever. Bless her.
Yes some of those Welsh girls were lovely. Talked to one while in lake field Canada at Royal Bank. I asked her were all welsh girls as beautiful as she-she replied “Yes”. Guess I should have asked if they were all as humble as she.
Just happened to see this. I’m 70 years old and it still brings tears to my eyes as to what a beautiful song this was. Beautiful girl and angelic voice. Once in a lifetime performance!
I'm 68 and more and more of these old classics bring the tears out of me (as well as my lady) We had the best music to listen to.
Paul McCartney wrote it for her
My brother remembers this song with such fondness that sometimes I have to bring him back to reality: "That's because you didn't have to pay rent, gas, electricity, insurance, healthcare nor shop for food for 7 persons, that's why those days were the best. Now it's your task and duty to make sure your children will have the same memories when they're 75"
I second this motion:)
Jeepers, is he just having children now : )
@@drychaf He's a busy guy ;-)
Her voice was so clear and lovely
I love this song so much. One of McCartney's best compositions.
Campbell's*

@@thegreatdonato478 There exists a demo of Paul singing this song to guide Mary. No William Campbell.Billy Shears here. Nonsense. all of the McCartney clan would NOT accept a substitute.
Paul McCartney, the master of melody!
Absolutely 💯
And probably still getting royalties! LoL.
I'd completely forgotten about this song. Glad it popped up.
Me too
Temma Harbour is another of her songs that people forget.
1969, #1 on the UK charts is “Get Back” and #2 is “Goodbye” . Paul McCartney was reigning supreme.
Prettiest girl ever with an angelic voice. Girls don't come close to her beauty and talent today...
…and lots of them are covered in tattoos. 👎
Gee thanks. Anyway an old man like you couldn't get us young girls anyway, ok gramps.
@@littlemissblackdress7587 Lol. The joke is on you! I too am an old man, and your generation isn't much to brag about. You all gave up being what God created you to be.
@@littlemissblackdress7587 You’ll be old one day, you little imp.
Try YouTubing on Lucy Thomas. She's Great and one of the Best.
What a beautiful voice.
This was the Welsh singer's second biggest hit in the UK.
It peaked at no. 2 in April 1969.
@Peter Bravestrong Really??!? We learn something new every day!
@Peter Bravestrong Jewel Kilcher was born May 23, 1974, in Payson, Utah, the second child of Attila Kuno "Atz" Kilcher and Lenedra Kilcher (née Carroll).
Great news! She is still alive and SINGLE!! I'm calling her up for a date.
@Peter Bravestrong Not true
Jewel's mother is Lenedra Carroll.
They don’t sing like her anymore and how very sad is that! I could listen to this over & over.
They don't sing at all anymore. They rap and strip.
No autotune needed back then either. You had real singers who could hold a note.
@@Noycey64 So Cher isn't a real singer?
"DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO"
Yep, thank god they don't.
@@antonphibes4924 - blame the songwriter (Paul McCartney) not the singer!
One of the best songs ever written and sung. Thank you sir Paul and Mary!
Took me right back to my childhood so many good memories of people no longer around just so simple
Memories...driving in my MGB, top down, 8 track playing....people had no air conditioning in cars then...stopping at a red light, people would chat with the people In the car next to you....we are insulated from each other now, in boxes, all the same.
Yes, you’re so right. I recently saw a CZcams video (Reflections on Life channel) in which the lady being interviewed said that the problem today is that we, as a members of today’s society, are DISmembered-meaning we’re no longer connected to one another. We tend to view one another with distrust, and we’ve developed a tendency to lash out with impatience and hostility toward one another. Instead of viewing one another as friends, neighbors, and fellow travelers, we respond to strangers as ‘alien others’. How did we arrive here at this point? More importantly, how can we return to civility and come back together?
Yeah, I remember being stopped at a red light, going north at an intersection, blocked by police letting traffic through, east to west. I asked the people in the car next to me what was happening. "The dam is breaking," they said. I was in an MGA. Fortunately, the police finally let us proceed north after two more minutes. By the time I reached Adams Blvd,, the cars in the Fedco lot were floating.
I loved this song when I was a kid.
Yes, same here. Thank GOD for youtube, cos I can listen to it as much as I like, & I do.
I still do.
Beautiful woman, beautiful voice👏🏼😘😍🤩
Her voice brings tears to my eyes. I was a teenager in the 1960s when she was a HUGE star!
It does me too.
The first thing I noticed about Mary Hopkin, is that I never saw her take a breath while she sang a song. She reminds me of Judith Durham from the Seekers. Both give us effortless singing, and wonderful songs.
Considerately different voices and styling, but yes, you are right. Both are among the best female singers, ever. Not bad to look at, either.
aye...n hit their notes dead on..no awful shreiking caterwauling n bending of notes like todays warblers'
You don’t need to take a big breath when you are just lip syncing to your record.
If you listen to her early recordings (eg Honeymoon Song, Puppy Song) her breathing is quite prominent
Comparing Mary Hopkins' skills to Judith Durham sells Ms. Durham's skills short. Judith Durham is one of those gifted signers who always seemed to be pitch perfect (similar to, for example) Karen Carpenter. There aren't many. And Durham had much greater range than Mary Hopkins.
Thank you Mary Hopkins and Thank you my love Mary we had 20 years together so you just rest for now and ill be there before you know it!!! She (MY MARY) left this life after 63 years on august 21st. 2023 and damn it has life become so much more difficult and so much darker without het by my side.... I guess I still have things to do so I'm going to get back at it. Peace,love and light to anyone reading this. Hope is ultimately all we have in difficult times and bad situations... Be kind, stay humble and heal dont harm! Cya around.
Incredibly beautiful.
What a contrast with the drivel we have today. This is wonderful, a beautiful and very talented woman singing an amazing song about her love. Thank you for this posting.
Couldn't disagree with you more. Don't get stuck in the past. Explore.
@@unclebobunclebob Agreed.
Your advanced age had made you cynical and shortsighted...
There are still wonderful artists around today just as there were back then , also there was some pretty awful music back in the 60s too so dont be so blinkered and blind and as someone else mentioned explore and broaden your narrow mind . Im 58 by the way so i remember this song when it was out .
@@Anth230 no. Age has nothing to do with it . It’s the ears.
What a cutie pie. Classy, modest, poised & professional! Musically our generation that grew up with these amazing singers and musicians are of the highest standard that no one before or after have been able to equal, alone rival. It was all down hill musically after that. Some of the trash I have heard coming from the radio these days is fit for only one thing--a dumpster fire! To think that the talent mocking buffoons have taken over the air waves that were once occupied by the
legends and artistic composers is horrifying. The music industry has been turned on it's head
with people that have no business being there , nor have the talent required for a recording contract!
I am 75 and agree with you 100%. I will buy a gallon of gas to start the dumpster fire.
Agreed...piles of pure shiiite and slop which many piggies with no taste or culture eat up!
i am 40 and hated the music from my own generation and utterly loathe this crap they have today.... funnily enough so do my kids who are still in their teens. it's rare if they play anything newer than the 80's (unless it's a remix of the jazz/swing/big band era.) my youngest son has always had a penchant for Louie Armstrong and Fred Astaire. He recently discovered Tom Waits,.... that's probably the newest material in his playlist.
i don't begrudge anyone for liking what they like. but i wish they wouldn't assault my ears with it. i haven't played the fm radio in years. couldn't tell ya the first pop song of today.
@@Hy-Brasil Same...I haven't played the fn radio in year! LOL
imagine being able to write a song like this , thankyou Paul for all of them.
Her resemblance to Jewell in both looks and sound of voice is uncanny
I am in my 70s and I heard Mary in her hey day, but I never appreciated how good she was, a very lovely voice, well she was welsh, that accounts for it, but the good news is I can listen to her now
Loved her growing up in the 60s real voice real talent no auto tone or voice over. We need this today
This is NOT live.
Doing Sullivan, better be on your game.
@@sananton2821and your point?
@@jackradicelli6243 Probably that the previous commenter was giving her credit for no voiceover-- when actually she's multi-tracked. (But at least she had a good voice to start with, unlike some singers who have nothing EXCEPT studio magic.)
@@sananton2821I've heard her live and it's exactly the same - real trained voices required in those days and expected!! Got it!!!! 🤡
Lovely woman, lovely song, lovely voice I love Mary Hopkin
Beautiful song. Beautiful voice. One of the many Paul's classics.....
Ah! A true singer and underrated. Her gift was and is majestic.
A Welsh princess, with the voice of an angel
Mary Hopkin has such a well rounded vocal tone. This is real talent no autotune here.
Whoever even conceived the idea of auto-tuning, is undoubtedly an enemy of pure musical talent.
Jaw dropping gorgeous
Meh, I wouldn’t say that. Pretty though
@@GeorgeZimmermen To that other man, he sees her as gorgeous. The fact that you felt comfortable writing that indicates work you need to do in becoming a gentleman instead of remaining a JERK.
@@lemurianchick A gentlemen compliments a lady. The right thing to do. :)
This lady is my crush when i was a boy. Angel voice and the very definition of a beautiful woman. Big Sigh. Still as beatiful as i remenber. Mary Hopkins thank you for those wonderful memories.
waaaaay back in the 1990s (96 to be exact) i found this little 45 rpm in my mom's long forgotten record collection. she gave up listening to vinyl long ago and i sorta took over them when i was pretty young. but some how that one escaped my attention, hidden among the more popular albums like Thriller and Cindi Lauper's girls just wanna have fun..
during this phase i was heavily into 60s music anyway, monkees, beatles etc. but my mom didn't have THOSE. So when i saw that little green apple logo i flipped.
I didn't recognize the singer but did recognize who wrote it. And i fell in love with it.
I used to play it every morning as i got ready for school.....lonely time for me. but also kinda weirdly comforting.
my brother was away in basic training and my mom was working early hours to earn extra money and it was my responsibility to put myself on the bus (and i did, most days...)
This song and and several others made it less lonely.
Keep in mind this was the 90s..... i didn't have any friends. the two i did have moved far away and never wrote and this was before internet found its way into our homes. that walk to the bus stop was torture. standing alone in the dawn by myself, and it was always foggy, was torture. and that bus ride to school, surrounded by noisy kids who had friends was torture. never mind the rest of the day. i spent most of it in my head, watching the clock and drawing in my secret sketchbook, hoping the teachers wouldn't see... or reading. i was a notorious book worm!
some time around that period i figured out how to make mixed tapes from the record player and that helped with the loneliness... sorta. i would sneak my walkman onto the bus and try to hide the headphones under my hair so others wouldn't notice. because i absolutely hated being asked what i was listening to....nearly as much as i hated being asked what i was reading. Because as soon as i would tell them they would give me these dumb mooncalf looks or laugh at me saying "that's OLD!!" or they'd call it lame.
needless to say, i was not one of the cool kids and didn't want to be. the only thing i had going for me was my art and a lot of daydreaming.
So, not long after that the internet eventually DID make its way into the house and I made friends who liked the same music and even introduced me to more. We would talk for hours about these old 60s bands, pretend to be hippies or make up stories of what it would be like if we could go back in time. We even plotted to run away to California... and then i actually made a friend at school who ACTUALLY lived on my street. and she ACTUALLY liked my music! and I actually looked forward to that long walk in the dark mornings because if i hurried she and i could talk and play music before the bus arrived.
All the while..... This song has been like an anthem for me.
"please don't wake me up too late, tomorrow comes and i will not be late..."
Phenomenal voice; lovely, charming simplicity and grace.
She has a perfect voice 💕
How incredibly beautiful she is!!! Bob Dylan recently said Paul McCartney is the best musician of the 20th century and even this song most people don't realize he wrote. I do believe Mary Hopkin has the voice of an angel!!!!
I would love to see a reunion of Mary and Paul and have them sing Goodbye as a duet.
Beautiful song! Beautiful singer! Thanks for this...happy! 💗
Simpler times, feeling good and stress free 💙🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Incredible how prolific McCartneys songwriting was in this period
Right!!!
I love this tune!!
May be not all their's some reports state that they bught from other artists! and regesterd them under Lennon & McCartney.
@@jimrogers5774 there's lots of reports about Bigfoot too!
@@jimrogers5774 Not so. I have the bootleg demo sang by Paul McCartney. There is no other demo out there. Paul wrote it at home and offered it to Mary.
Great voice and she's adorable. Those were the Days is probably my favorite.
Beautiful song. Beautiful voice transcends time
A lovely voice. I listened to her when I was a child.
Paul McCartney wrote this for her.What an amazing voice she had and such a beauty.
Writing songs for women. Good way to meet girls.
@robrussell5329 Paul needed NO help to meet girls. He literally had full time staff fighting them off
Love Mary's beautiful voice
I was ten living in Akrotiri in Cyprus, someone would have recorded that Sunday’s TopTwenty to be played on the bus as we made our way to Episkopi comp School, those really were the day’s my friend when we thought they’d never end up! Now I am 64 , shortly to end my life at DIgnitas ,hearing her voice brings back many happy memories ,to hear her voice takes me back in an instant, so thank you Mary
I am sorry that your life is ending soon. I am 62, so 64 seems very very young . :) Your comment introduced me to Dignitas. My former spouse and father of my children has Parkinson's that is progressing rapidly. Thank you.
It doesn't take long before you realize it was written Sir Paul. Oh man, what a songwriter.
I may be wrong, but I believe this was an Italian folk song translated to English, by who I do not know, but it seems that Paul takes the credit
@@fenrichlee2867 🤷♂
I've got absolutely no problem with the added production value of this performance. It's a wonderful presentation. Look at her eyes; there's an incredible shine.
You don't hear good music like this anymore. Oh yes those were the days my Friend.
I like her voice 🙂
Great singer, a loving song, I will always remember.
Fantastic song, fantastic performance by a extremely talented and gorgeous, classy lady. Compare that with the tattoo-ed barbarians of today... This is why the '60's and '70's were the best. Simply spectacular.
And yet your parents and their generation said much the same thing, bloody rock and roll is the devils music. A bunch of noise.
@@Americathebeautiful49 My parents were quite liberal in that respect, the neighbors less so. So to some extent that's true, it's a generational thing. But I do think the way she looks and sings has little or no equivalency with what's being produced today.
Those were the days when you could see that much skin and not a tattoo in sight. Natural beauty. Not walking billboards. Glad I was there.
You hit the mark with that comment.
Those were the days, oh yes those were the days.
Absolutely! I totally agree. It used to be the only place you could see a tattooed woman was at the circus. I hate tattoos.
You're an old fool.
I don't remember those days, because I was a baby in 1969 :D
I've loved Mary since the 60s❤
I don’t remember ever having heard that song before. Beautiful.
Beautiful song AND sweet voice, nice girl ❤
Hearing her voice makes me want to live ! 👏
well said
Indeed ! It just warms your heart ❤️
Don't get the vaccine then?
Sweet girl; sweet voice. Those WERE the days, indeed.
What a beautiful lady. And getting applause when she barely started made me feel good.
A beautiful singing voice saves my heart.
I had the 45 single on Apple records. Remember buying it at the only KMART store in Fresno California. Played a lot on Boss Radio KYNO-Fresno.
aw, the beauty of English vowels when properly/perfectly enunciated
Incredibly beautiful, WTH has happened to us !!
I'll have you know that I still am incredibly beautiful!
Democrats.
The music industry went right into the toilet with only being interested in the money and not competing to produce talented artists that sell based on talent. Now it is just packaged garbage
Our culture has turned to woke shit.
MAGA
her hair, her eyes, everything about mary just astonishes me. i love her!
Another Paul wonderful song. Mary is also wonderful.
She has such a great voice.
Beautiful person with beautiful singing… refreshing
Yes, first non Beatle artist recorded on Apple Records!
I believe that was James Taylor. Cheers, mate! :)
@@mmccartney6579 James Taylor was later....Mary Hopkins was the first non Beatle.
Don't Forget BADFINGER BAND. 🎶🎸🎶
@@brucefindlay I just googled it...says James Taylor was the first.
@@mmccartney6579 ha ha....James was the first 'non British' artist to sign to Apple. Mary Hopkin's single 'Those Were The Days' was released before James Taylor....Loved them both btw. I was a young man back in the 1960s ....smile.
What a beautiful sweet girl she was.
In sound and vision
Perfect. Outstanding.
Her vocals & backing vocals fit those chord changes beautifully❤️
I remember sitting in the back of my dads old Buick Skylark as he was driving in downtown Erie and heard Mary singing Downtown. I was about 6 or 7 years old and still remember it vividly.
Great Macca tune. And such a sweet voice. Great post!
It's not just the sheer talent those pop and rock musicians had back in that era. It was the effortless perfection in their live performances.
Reminds me of "By the time I get to Phoenix" only more cheerful.
great voice...sang the high notes with ease....
Paul McCartney is an absolute genius. The fact that he wrote so many hits for other artists goes to show how prolific he was in his prime.
I agree. But he really stopped writing for others after apple imploded. He should consider doing it again. He’s still got it.
AHH... some nice wholesome singing. What a beautiful song and beautiful soul !
That was a long time ago but I remember it well as a 16 yr. old.
I have this album. I bought it for this song alone. Haven’t played it in over 50 years. I did see her on Ed Sullivan show.
This is 100% pure music.
What a beautiful Girl! Nice tune!
