[@david210560]

It’s fantastic that younger people enjoy this music. I cannot imagine todays so called music will have such staying power in the future, it is almost instantly forgettable.

[@malcolmtitley861]

Proper music bough this in 1961

[@chrismcc452]

Good for you! I'm pleased that you have discovered music from the 60s. This one is an absolute cracker. Out of interest, there is a German version by Andrea Berg called Seemann, kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJTXk2Bpn6p0pLM

Beautiful lovely spiritual song. , a little snippet of information for your viewers , when petula was a young girl , she trained and sang with a friend of mine. In Scotland , opera. , one was petula one was Julie Andrews the other was Maureen ,part of the Mackenzie clan , will not give her second name now. Observe her privacy but what a voice for opera , she never saught stardom. But she could sing anywhere , no mike , and. Hold a halls attention. , a graceful lady a true lady , my friend , god bless her , 💗🙏

[@user-mn9qx9jn6b]

How nice Thankyou, a part of our music history, hope your friends well today, petula is remarkable, seen her live in Sydney, wow, Tks for sharing sweetheart , regards from Sydney ❤

[@billsanders5067]

The first time I heard this song was in 1967 when it was played on armed forces rsdio and I was crew member aboard the USS CLEVELAND just off the coast of Vietnam. It was the German version recorded by⁸ Lolita. When it came on we would stop whatever we were doing and listen. It was and still is one of my favorite songs, and I still stop and listen.

[@markberryhill2715]

Very cool story.

[@user-qt2jg5ww1x]

I took my 6 year old daughter to see her in concert in her late 70's in Birmingham and she looked great and never missed a note! My daughter has loved her since she was a toddler!

[@MickeyMouse-ul2zs]

I was 6 when this was released and it could ne why I joined the Merchant Navy and spent my working life at sea as an engineer. Saw the world and had a fabulous time.

[@user-ly4fh5sl6y]

I just love Sailor, no it by heart now. She has a beautiful gifted voice.

[@Trebord-z4v]

So many memories this song invokes…just beautiful 🥰🎶🥰

[@johnmcmillan8493]

everyone in the pub sways left to right when it’s played

[@denniswinchester6720]

This song by Petula has been part of our family for many generations at all levels, Sister, brothers, cousins etc, it was also played at relatives passing when they went to the great Music Hall in the sky... but in an accepted sense. This has been happening since I was in my early teens right up to this era, and I've always remembered the words I'm now 79 and most of our Family still play this music when we get the chance, its not a sad song but gives me positive vibes. There's also a version sung by Ann Shelton which has the same quality as Petula's version, and sounds just as good. Its good to see other Music lovers still remember this song.

[@kevinvicedomini8745]

Timeless classic

[@user-fo7mj9su8y]

❤Underbar vacker kvinna fantastisk sångröst from Sweden ❤

[@harald2072]

Let´s not forget that Petula did a cover version then. And let´s give credits to the original version of the song (in German) first performed in 1960 by Austrian singer LOLITA. R.I.P

[@darrenplumpton9737]

PETULA CLARK 'S VERSION DESERVED TO MAKE THE NUMBER ONE SPOT. BECAUSE IT IS BY FAR AND AWAY THE ULTIMATE and SUPERIOR RENDITION OF THIS MAGNIFICENT CLASSIC.

All budding singers should be shown this, as a guide that you don't have to screw your face up, like a kid being dragged away from the lollie counter, to express, wistfulness, and heartbreak.

Bonjour, vous avez raison. Petula sait chanter. On comprend très bien les paroles et elle a une voix puissante. C'est également une personne charmante et simple ❤

[@nevillemckenzie2542]

Love this song

[@billmyer9157]

the only thing that can match her beauty is her voice...she is still with us.....thankfully...i remember she was on the show with one of our black singers...and the producers didn't want her holding on to her black singer while doing a number together....she said i will have not of that and she took hold of him..and they got over being shocked of seeing a white singer holding on to a black singer...i thought she not only had a great voice...but she had character as well...what a great lady....i loved her singing as a teen....and i still lover her today...

I first loved this song in the original German version in 1961 by Lolita. I first heard it in English by Petula and I loved it in English as well. To hear the original in German search for Seeman by Lolita.

[@user-fc1dn4er8n]

My son was on subs with the navy and sent this song 😊

[@keithepley2132]

This is the first time I've heard this by Petula, no surprise it's great! My mom sang this to me in the early 60s, but I believe it was the release was Seaman, by a German singer?

British Lolita, very nice, the lyrics are changed from the original!

[@njbobf]

They could come up lyrics more closely matching the German translation. Lacks the depth and meaning of the original German.
