What a lovely comment and so true!

I'm here because 1969 in Belfast was my childhood. I'm the same age as Ken and lived about 6 streets away from where he lived. This movie means so much to me. It's my childhood wonderful but terrifying at the same time. I remember this song as a child and reminds me of my childhood years, in the streets of Belfast. To be honest the sense of community back then was second to none. We all looked out for each other. That's gone now. No more sense of community. It definitely takes a village (community) to raise a child. Well done Ken and all the cast of Movie Belfast.

Wow just wow

My all time favourite song. I was 20 when Steve was 18, I’ve always loved his performance in the song. I’m at an age now that I hate seeing people in pictures and videos showing them young when I was young. All of us who were around at that time are old now and our time is almost up, for many it is. Our era was so good compared to today. I feel sorry for our kids and their kids, there is so much more shit going on in the world today. I miss our time in the 70s and wish I could live it again, knowing what I know now. There’s a quote I try to live by now, “To have no regrets tomorrow - be wise today” I wish I could be in that time forever. The stunning girl dancing was Susan Matthews, I wonder where she is now- does anyone know? The chaplinesque dancer is Delores Schmidinger - famous at the time in her native Holland. It's such a shame that we don't write and record songs like that anymore. It is so good and brings back so many good memories of my youth. For me, the sad thing about the video is that everyone was so young, and at that time so was I. I'm a really good 75 years old now and my wife of 50 years at 70 is just as good. A person below said to all the youth, "enjoy life - like we did - while you are young", from personal experience he is so right. Turning 50 was ok, turning 60 wasn't well accepted, suddenly after that 60th birthday, time sped up and suddenly I was 75, shit I think it happened when I blinked. Appreciate every minute of your youth because life is like a toilet roll, it runs out faster at the end - it's so sad that everyone in that video is old now, maybe some are dead. Still a great song

I’m 44, this was way before my time but never will there be a song of this calibre again. Greatest love song ever. 17 years old, that’s incredible he sings with so much soul and passion for a tender age.

Still remember the day my father came home with this single, and played it over and over again. I'm now getting on 62, but seems like yesterday when listening to this. Dad you had great taste in music back then, miss you, till we meet again.
