It's 2022 and I'm 30 already. When I was 12 my father always played this song with his poor guitar. My father passed away when I was 18. I'm still playing this song.

What time is it there now ?

Nothing is more emotional in this song than the crowd singing with them 🥰🥺 I was singing this on the bus while it drove through a storm few days ago, everyone on that ride was a high school student. Well I started singing this low. Then, the guy next to me, a stranger, started singing with me. Then almost everyone else joined the choir. When we reached my town, the driver had tears on his face. We got off of the bus and watched it driving away, standing at the roadside. It has been touching... it left me thinking of how we youngs are just a brotherhood, how people can make wonderful things from nothing. Love my friends and love these years ❤. Forever. Love from a remote place in Northern Italy 🫂

Keep it up, kid, and good for you!

Me, being the son of a father who avidly loved this song would often hear him hum the tunes all my childhood. Back in maybe 2013 my father played this video on our family computer and together with my mother I sat through. Now almost ten years later, I'm nineteen only in first year of med school and sitting on my bed at 3AM as I'm listening, mind goes back to those days; missing my parents at home.....i can only reminisce of those days now. I'll only thank my father(baba) for this. To all the folks, love and peace ✌️

My tears are falling down from my eyes . I miss something deeply much.

*Five Hundred Miles* If you missed the train I'm on You will know that I am gone You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles A hundred miles, a hundred miles A hundred miles, a hundred miles You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles Lord, I'm one, Lord, I'm two Lord, I'm three, Lord, I'm four Lord, I'm five hundred miles away from home Away from home, away from home Away from home, away from home Lord, I'm five hundred miles away from home Not a shirt on my back Not a penny to my name Lord, I can't go back home this ole way This ole way, this ole way This ole way, this ole way Lord, I can't go back home this this ole way If you missed the train I'm on You will know that I am gone You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles A hundred miles, a hundred miles A hundred miles, a hundred miles You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles

Junior high school, Belgrade, Serbia. Our English language teacher brought us lyrics. Some of us already new the melody... It was wonderful then and it still is great remembering those beautiful sounds.

yes once in a lifetime!!!.....so glad you and a others realized how incredible this moment in time was........lasted only a few years. I was lucky enough to be in high school at the time.......we were all going to change the world with love and understanding! it eventually fell apart for so many reasons, hard to say exactly why. many reasons. turning point down was everything in 1968... but this video captures the spirit of my generation for those glorious few years. must be at least 2000 people in the audiences singing softly together as one, hanging on every word of that famous heartfelt song........so beautiful to watch and it does make you cry because all that beauty and promise is so dead and buried now in the ugly world!!

This was a time when we were young and innocent, most of all we were hopeful. Our future before us, the dream of world peace. A time of harmony, in song, and human relationship. As we enjoy this music, I still have hope for a better future.

There are some classically beautiful songs that just draw people in, and this is the most moving rendition. Thanks, guys, for bringing it to us.

So many years, so many songs, so many memories, so many heart breaks, nothing made me distant from this song. My heart still melts the same it did when I first heard this song. ❤. This song is just one more thing to be grateful about ❤

Wow does this bring back great memories! Loved these guys!👍

The crowd is so struck in this sing along. Very moving, thank you.

This is the best version of 500 miles I've ever heard. Even surpassing the versions by Peter Paul Mary and the Journeymen.

This is still one of the bests of The Brothers Four. RIP Mike Kirkland. Your music has touched so many souls and it will still be played for many years to come.

Some songs just bring people together regardless of who you are,where you come from. You just have to be human to share that connection.

This is a very lovely rendition and the audience appreciate it.

Una delle più belle canzoni country di tutti tempi!

Wonderful performance. I love the girl in 1'24" and also the faces of the girls in 1'46". I would like to know if anyone was at that concert and what memories they have. Greetings to all Brothers Four lovers!

They were very good people who really felt for the for the defeated rebel soldiers who were just trying to get home. It is so cool because it had only to do with human suffering and not politics.

I love how they start singing much softer when the audience joins them. So wise. Whispers are always more powerful than shouts.

I heard this song when I was young.

Moved my soul when I was 14... woke up in VIETNAM and armed radio played this song.... darm near lost it...

There was a time where my grandpa and I have a moment to chill, finding good songs from the past. Ever since he introduce me this song way back 2013. It instantly became a part of my playlist. He passed away last 2021 and I missed him so much T_T.

God bless the Brothers Four. I grew up with them.

The best version of this timeless classic.

Im Nepali And We Fight to be capable of British Army..and im sure im the only Gurkha country to keep this song on my Heart since i was in nursery grade at British support school fund.

Best version of this song for sure , though Justin made it very well , the only sad thing about it is it's shortness, you wish if it was much longer 🌹

One and only!! Indiscribable.Wow👏

There best version of 500 miles. Period.❤

I can’t believe I’m 66 years old and have never heard this before! Love it!❤

Very peaceful. I love it. Thank you for sharing ❤

This video reminds me of a line in Lily Tomlin’s performance of Jane Wagner’s one woman play “The Search for Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe” wherein one of the characters Lily plays wonders aloud whether art is on the stage or in the audience.

Whatever happened to this wonderful calming music?! I surely do miss it. So glad these performances are saved for all time.

What Beautiful Song 🎵 Thank 🎵 you,

Touches me to tears recalling the times fans, when we used to be such innocent dreamers, still sounds like the music of the Resistance, let's share some more prayers for peace, we survived the Stalin harsh comunist regime, we stay united to sing along and survive again the worst threats ever seen, some pricks seems worthless if not playing death games with our lives

I have been looking for this

remember the days when I was in university in beijing, like the song, and the way they sing it.

I wish if I could find my happiness back.

perfect amazing

Love it

every day i listen this song and everyday i journey with soldier who are gone 500 miles away from hone

Soo amazing,they keep thier health for a long long years.
