* Try To Remember ~ Nana Mouskouri 1972

Try to remember the kind of September
When life was slow and oh
so mellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
When grass was green and the grain was yellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
When you were young and the callow fellow.
Try to remember and if you remember
then follow
follow.
(Try to remember) when life was so tender
When no-one wept except the willow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
When dreams were kept beside your pillow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
When love was an ember about to billow.
Try to remember and if you remember
then follow
follow.
Deep in December it's nice to remember
Although you know the snow will follow.
Deep in December it's nice to remember
Without a hurt the heart will hollow.
Deep in December
it's nice to remember
The fire of September that made you mellow.
Deep in December our hearts should remember and follow
follow.

I'm 70 (ish) years old now, and well remember hearing Nana Mouskouri in the 70's live on TV and on vinyl records. Her rendition of "Try to Remember" brought tears to my eyes then, and now that I am "deep in December" in my life, tears flow just as easily if not more so. What a treasure Nana Mouskouri is!

[@fikryiskandar2653]

God Bless you Lee..

[@marypaine1770]

The same here! Very moving then & still is!!

[@rudolfsidhu]

It strikes a special chord when I first heard of her as a young kid (early 2000s?) and her voice is so angelic

[@Itschriscruz]

Beautiful comment. Sending love from Houston TX ✌️

[@prof.khinmaunglwin6222]

I first noticed her when I was 50 yrs old. I didn't remember that song unfortunately, but I always listen to her songs tentatively whenever I come across. One of the DVD seller mentioned that her voice was so sweet and natural that she sings like a housewife singing easily ( humming ) while dusting the households. May she be happy if she hears my comment.

[@geoffhawkins1965]

It is hard to grasp just how quickly the river of time flows through our lives. This takes me right back to childhood and an innocence long forgotten.

[@theresaduplooy1170]

My Mom loved this Song....Miss you Mom .... God called you home 27 years ago....Wonderful Memmories ❤

[@doeharris5363]

Bless you my friend l really sympathise. X

My Dad too...he's been gone a month now...beautiful memories come back to me when I hear this...

May she rest in peace in his heaven.

[@lindamateri9906]

I took my blind father to see her in concert,, I didn’t tell him to where we were going so it was was a great surprise for him ,, oh the memories ❤❤

[@louisegoodyear2515]

Just listening to Nana Mouskouri, she definitely had the voice of an angel ❤

[@philpryor7524]

Old, how, we age, but, tears are here, for the simple plain beauty of old days, memories, loves, a life to be remembered, even with false hopes, soured memory, some regrets, but, a love of the little moments of pure beauty, in the fondness of it, and, especially, the lovely plain goodness of Nana lives...

[@titasangalang5789]

Beautiful rendition of a lovely song by a talented singer . Brings back happy memories of our past. Tnks for sharing....

[@doeharris5363]

Fabulous lady with the most wonderful voice and oh so beautiful. I wish we could watch her on television in concert. Thank you Nana for making the world a beautiful place. X❤❤❤

[@lunsingo]

Yes, it was 61 years ago I married my dear wife. She left me for heaven 2 years ago, thus the sweet voice of Nana singing this soulful tune always haunts me.😢

[@DSMS-nu4vj]

I lost my beautiful wife after 51 years of marriage and we both loved Nana Mouskouri and watched her perform magnificently in Los Angeles.

[@robertryan2542]

May they both rest in peace .

[@rickbear7249]

My elder brother died in September 1972 of childhood leukemia. Absolutely tragic for all of us, especially my parents. This song will always hold such a place in my heart, even now, 51 years later. Such a beautiful and emotive song. Good-bye, brother Leslie 😢

[@craigsmith6607]

😢

[@JenniferF-ft6xp]

You’re brother is well indeed flying high and looking out for you all. May the universe bless him and you. We think of all our loved ones with this song. Another very poignant and maybe even more emotional song for you is “open your eyes”. It makes me cry but is so beautiful to listen to. Maybe you already know it, but if you dont its beautiful. I manifest a beautiful and joy filled holiday season for you and your family. Its nice how we can bond through music. Thank you Nana, and thank you thank you for sharing your personal story with us and allowing us to connect :) ❤️

[@audrakomishke4687]

My parents were fans. I listened to Nana to feel close to them now that they have both passed on. Thank you Nana!

[@WelshmanSudios]

Why I woke up this morning with this in my head I don’t know but I had to out it on and listen to it

[@paulajeffrey6706]

That's exactly what I'm doing right now. My dad died When I was 23 .He loved her voice but I didn't get it then ,now I do. Her voice is beautiful.

[@PaulMcElveen]

The very pretty and extremely talented singer and performer Nana Mouskouri performs this beautiful, classic and melancholy song from the musical play The Fantasticks perfectly! The guitarist, musicians, and the male backup singers are fantastic! The harmonizing is perfect! I was born in 1978. Thank you for posting and sharing this classic performance! I love it!

[@MitchellDormont]

I saw "The Fantastics" at the Sullivan Street Playhouse 3 times...phenomenal.

Back again. I saw "The Fantasticks" 3 times, at the Sullivan St. theatre, just loved it. She does the song such justice!

[@Itschriscruz]

I absolutely adore Nana’s performances from the 70’s. She’s in her prime here and the voice so pure and dulcet; one of Europe’s shining singers to say the least.

[@LazarusRose]

Ah, the crystal-voiced beauty of modern Greece. And I don't know of any other woman who could make eyeglasses look this beautiful.

[@JenniferF-ft6xp]

She is so stunning. She reminds me of my father as he is the one who introduced me to Nana. What a beautiful, brilliant woman. Always reminds me of Christmas also. We love you Nana Mouskouri.

I always love this lady , just beautiful,

[@GentlemanH]

The incomparable Nana Mouskouri - bravo Madame ! 👋👋👋

[@MitchellDormont]

Only now finding her, and loving her voice and performance.

[@G6JPG]

You have about 40 years' worth of her career to enjoy! (from 1957 to around 1990 are all good.) In many languages (she sings in about 16, including some rare ones; she speaks about 6).

[@allgood6760]

Nice voice.. I remember her in the 70's 👍🎶

[@G6JPG]

She's still (2024-July) alive, and can still sing - quietly, but in tune and control (unlike one of my other favourites who still has the power but has lost control). She (Nana) has mostly retired, other than for special occasions - she sang the Greek and French anthems at the lighting of the flame in Greece for the 2024 Paris olympics, for example.

[@allgood6760]

@@G6JPG Wow! still in around in 2024

[@G6JPG]

@@allgood6760 Yes, she'll be 90 on October 13. For the above >89½ performance, see kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYCrfZyHj7d5sNk - don't expect as strong a performance as this one from about 50 years earlier! (and criminally poor sound mixing), but she clearly still enjoys singing.

[@AndrewNeale-go9eq]

Such a beautiful voice, and a beautiful lady,I absolutely love Nana Mouskouri ❤.

[@88cadfael]

Magnificent!

[@effiemooney8477]

Awh, brings back my chidhood, TY, sooo good, TY.

[@WelshmanSudios]

I didn’t know she was around in the 70s as a child in the 80s but her no hit only love hit no 1 in the UK and I sang it in a talent competition, and saw her live and she shut off her mic and powerfully started to sing a song without a mic and i honestly was blown away this doesn’t do her voice justice love you nana . You inspired a generation.

[@G6JPG]

Born 1934-10-13! Her recording career spanned from 1958! (To 201x, though she should have stopped earlier.) Her prime was the 1970s, as you can hear here - strong and pure - and the '80s. Yes, she could wow a crowd without a mike.

[@jean-jacquessimon6703]

​@@G6JPGElle l'a fait de nombreuses fois sur scène en époustouflant le public. Je crois me rappeler que la première fois, c'était à l'Olympia où, après les nombreux rappels, elle interprétait "Les rubans rouges" accompagnée par Georges Petsilas. Inoubliable souvenir.

[@lunsingo]

❤

[@paulharmon557]

A well nigh perfect version of this classic song!

[@G6JPG]

For me, this song has always _belonged_ to Nana, although I know she was neither the first nor the best-known performer of it.

[@WHATTHEBUCKSHOW]

OH WOW!!!

[@happydays3678]

Beautiful song sung by the most Beautiful Nana Mouskouri. ❤🌟❤🌟❤

[@brianward7724]

Such a wonderful rendition of this song! It HAS to be one of the best recordings from the 70s. Even the sound quality is terrific - and yet only 6,400 views!!!

[@thewind01]

It comes from a German TV show and it’s live. And you’re right, crazy how good the sound is… ❤️

[@HelenFoster-ws6uj]

Great voice

[@G6JPG]

@@thewind01 Interesting; I had assumed it was BBC. But from the quality it could well be German: German TV always had the highest technical standards. (Though if it was, I'd have thought she'd have done the German version Blumen der Liebe kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYu2oayLeLBopa8 .)

[@gillianhanton1784]

This song and her beautiful voice reminders me of my dear dad who loved the purity and clarity of her gorgeous voice and also her pretentiousness of her appearance. And I have just celebrated my 83rd birthday and these lyrics mean more to me than I could have ever imagined ... Thank you for the music and the wonderful memories ❤

[@LAGirlFriend]

This is one heart wrenching song. As a kid I didn't see it coming

[@ianstewart5297]

If you like this ? Try Pat Kelly reggae version. Enjoy.

[@cathydrinkwater1099]

A beautiful voice i could listen to all the time.Not like this sadly anymore

[@G6JPG]

Yes, some of her later recordings (~1995-) are quavery, though the last I have (from this year [2024] olympic flame ceremony) is OK and controlled, just very quiet. But 1957-199x are fine and a good long career!

[@MrJOHNMICHAELVEGA]

This is the theme song to the off - off Broadway musical ‘’The Fantastiks’’ . It was playing in a theatre on Spring street in Manhattan when I lived there. I never saw the musical but I was in it two different times with two different directors and different cast members with the exception of myself. I got to play the same role twice 7 years apart. We also toured the show both times in Mexico and Texas. It was a wonderful time in my life. Thank you 🙏❤️🎶

[@Sol-Cutta]

I was a raver in 90+ (and before in other inclinations) but I used to play nana n raver friends used to think of it as country n western lol....n think me strange. I'm 50 now

[@johnahalstead4942]

Mum and I love this song. I played guitar and sang this song. Mum died in 2021 at 95 and we had Nanas version during her cremation service. Superb as I wept.

[@DennisNoson]

The singers and the instrumental playing must be The Athenians, who recorded this and other songs in a live concert, on a two album LP (yes, vinyl) with the highest standards of sonic quality. The best ever!

[@G6JPG]

And she married one of them (George Petsilas), and had two children (including Lénou who has sung with her (e. g. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYbddHhnoNdqiKs).

This was 1972; she was born 1934-10-13, so she was probably 37 here. Yes, her appearance didn't change much for decades (if you don't count the early film 1959/60 kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHy3anp_lLKqbtU). She looked much as here from 1962.

[@G6JPG]

Yes, in about half a dozen languages, starting about 1961; her other pretty big hit from the early days was Ta Pedia Tou Pirea, alias Never on Sunday. Then Only Love about 1984. (And _many_ others, 1957 to about 1995, but I think those were her hugest.)

They say she has been or was sensitive about her eyes. Such beautiful eyes!

(Yes, they are.) Not really sensitive about her eyes, only her sight; she really can hardly see anything without her glasses, and was very reluctant to appear without them, even refusing to continue (to Harry Belafonte who wanted her to).

I think this is the best quality clip of this (surely one of Nana's signature songs, along with Pirea, and the WROA) I've seen - both audio and video are excellent, and the performance - actually from both Nana and the musicians/harmonizers - are too. Is it from one of her BBC shows? (If so, you have rescued it in various ways, not least from BBC4 cropping.) Thank you for uploading it.

Oh, did he do it? I'd have thought he'd have spoiled it. (I like much of what he does, but I think Nana's gentle tones suit it better, IMO best.)
