The Cowsills Some Good Years (Live)

[@2011FOG]

The Cowsills shine ever so bright-forevermore.

[@usmc-veteran73-77]

They were so talented. They should be in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame......wake up RnR HOF in Cleveland.

[@MrWarneet]

I really enjoy Cowsills unplugged. And this will be remembered as a world class performance.

[@chrisvigil1262]

Agree at least an honorary award for all their music.

[@mxfxdlg]

Just saw the “Cowsills Story” on Amazon, and now have an ever more immense amount of appreciation and respect for these people. Wonderful people caught up in an unfortunate situation that many others have, before and since. Only, they had to deal with it in the national spotlight. Such talent, love and promise should’ve been nurtured and protected. Instead, they had to fend for themselves, emotionally, which cut an incredible career short and robbed them, and US, of what would have been years of great music. This is why I say that non-musical people should NEVER be involved in decisions regarding band personnel, songs, styles, etc.

[@allkindsamusicchick]

Still makes me misty-eyed. Long may they run. 🌺🌺🌺

[@samaireoctober5584]

This is a beautiful song, it's like a flower growing through cement.

[@randyussery1738]

I absolutely love these guys! Down to earth and all so sweet. I was glad to see them smile at the end. They deserve the best!!

[@dalegillett8171]

Became 70 last month and this song punched me hard. Have loved them since.

[@Hegstuffing]

Fabulous song!

[@bcanton]

Everytime I pass a milestone in my life, leave a job, or leave a place that meant something, I play this song on that last day. Thanks for posting this my friend. Miss you, Lisa!

[@lisasutton4313]

Miss you too-- best episode, best day on the best show I ever worked on.

[@peacedotnik]

Beautiful song, a beautiful harmonies. I really appreciate the way Bob's voice has matured with a slight rasp. Very soulful and honest. Thanks for posting this!

[@33COOLStreet]

I think he had a slightly bad throat here because at the 2013 concert for Billy his voice sounds much stronger and clearer .

[@holden190]

I've met them several times - they are extraordinarily nice people.

[@MGR1900]

Very nice but at the same time incredibly sad. They've never had the recognition they deserved.

[@Svenguy]

That just hits you right in the heart, doesn't it? Really good work.

[@paullad3919]

Saw them last night. Heavenly!!!

[@MarsAveSo]

Highly under-rated, this was the Cowsill's best song in my book. I used this for a lady who retired at work, spliced in photos of her and played this song in the original version, and people at worked loved the song and what it portrayed. The Cowsills were the best family group right on top with the Osmonds on down.

[@usmc-veteran73-77]

Wouldn't it be great to go back to the 60s, maybe around 1967. Love the Cowsills more today than I did back in the 60s. "Yes Some Good Years"

[@rita56bean74]

God bless 'em! Harmonious and so true!

[@ElissaDucar]

This song, by far, is my favorite by this band. Love how they harmonize with each other. :)

[@58HUSTLER]

Know what you mean, just discovered it after watching the documentary as it played during the closing credits. I believe it has become my favorite as well. Criminal it didn't chart. The band deserves so much more than they ever received.

[@pattibrooks1907]

Beautiful song beautiful singers and a great group ! I love THe Cowsills !

[@julioaranton461]

Yes, they most certainly were...thank you Cowsills forever!♡

[@tjnugent62]

They were and still are wonderful.

[@HankFinkle11]

Susie's a heckuva nice lady and great songwriter herself. Her album "Lighthouse" is great.

[@Contrimundi]

Suzi always ALWAYS thanks everyone. Very gracious. No Suz we thank you.

[@williamj.sheehan2001]

Dang, beautiful !!!!!

[@BUSTER.BRATAMUS]

Man, they are beyond great....

[@fredanderson5278]

Love this.

[@andyrehorn7541]

To me this is a better version than the album version! Really hits home for me and especially for what occurred in my family... Thanks guys...

[@SuperLin55]

Paul saved suz...he loves her...this family are survivors and that's what you do survive and love..

[@madkins19]

Great harmonies, wonderful song.

[@davidhigham4291]

Just so good, what a gem!

[@MrPhilfridge]

Nice song, great harmonies

[@airager]

Brilliant!

[@sallysmith7726]

One for the good guys (and gal)!! So great when the right folks triumph!! Fun time had by all!!

[@noralitodiasgoncalvesgonca5356]

I love you the cowsills

[@jduff59]

For me The Cowsills are just like most other American families, although with tons of talent, their lives haven't been easy, some just tragic, buy yet they still get up on stage and make us adore them all. This song is a classic, and represents the band in a nutshell, so much talent and such little luck, one of the biggest "What Ifs" ever.

[@fwladd]

Nowadays we shouldn't pity this band, what it was it was and what it wasn't, bloody shame! For me, they simply are one of the best bands ever. The family crap doesn't count.

[@charlesquinnwarwick380]

love them

[@allkindsamusicchick]

Bittersweet. Love this.

[@evanwatkins5929]

This song pretty much sums up my life.

[@loritucker6708]

I saw them here in st louis aug 2017..and cried like crazy

[@bobf.5538]

After watching the Cowsills story on Amazon prime this song played over ending credits. I searched for the album it's from a 1990 album called Global...it Oop meaning out of print. I saw a few cds on Amazon for well over hundred dollars..if any of the Cowsils are reading this please re release that album...so we can all own this song and the other incredible songs on.this amazing cd / album

[@davida9346]

Why aren't the Cowsill's in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame they should be in there

[@RevLeigh55]

It’s a good bittersweet song. It’s on my playlist for my funeral one day.

[@harryberry474]

Bittersweet is right especially if you watch their documentary "Family Band: The Cowsills Story" Some Good Years was towards the end of it and WOW I got all misty eyed. I searched this song out and Amazon had it to download.

[@loritucker6708]

Love me some Paul Cowsill

[@nestaa49]

Thanks for sharing!!! love it!!!!neat song!!!!

[@bobdally1]

A great Band and family ! The Kids that is.

[@atp1962]

Simply awesome !!

[@TheEx3rgj]

I can't understand why they weren't as big over here in England, as they were in the states.they were a very talented band.

[@rascal211]

Because they are white. You guys like American black artists the most.

[@debraarmour6446]

Going to see them aug.2016 at st. charles mo.....hope they play wishing well

[@davidfillmore3151]

Love the Cowsills.

[@beckyhenson6459]

[@hamtrak]

I like how Susan echoes her brother at :50 and they all three smile.

[@themartialartstvchannel3593]

An undeniably great song. Needs more recognition.

I'm crying for these guys...Love them so..they're the toughest kids I've ever seen ever...

[@fwladd]

Don't care about toughness. They are simply brilliant musicians and that what is important to me.

[@harryberry474]

@@fwladd ...Watch their documentary "Family Band: The Cowsills Story" it's very insightful

Love this song, but it kind of makes me sad.

Makes me sad too - I loved the Cowsills since the 60's!!

[@donaldchaperlo6095]

Bob is on guitar and lead. Paul is in the middle.

[@holzapfelstein]

Where's John?

[@markm1784]

John drums for the Beach Boys. He performs with his family sometimes but only occasionally.

[@58HUSTLER]

Take a look at the (Mike Love's version) of the Beach Boys schedule and you'll see. They tour constantly.

[@gerardomoralesf]

Some Good Years Side B of Christmastime (Bob Cowsill, Mary Jo Cowsill) Lead Singer: Bob Back in time there's a place I remember, Feels so long ago. Everything I imagined was in my reach, Knew that it was going to last ever more. (Chorus) All I can say, yeah, How the good shines through. They were some good years. It went on and on, Just like a ocean. Made you feel so good. But then just like it rose and it was fallen. Guess nothing last the way it should (Chorus) They were some good years How the good, how the good, How the good shines How the good, how the good, How the good shines How the good, how the good, How the good shines through. How the good, how the good, How the good shines, How the good, how the good, How the good shines, How the good, how the good, How the good shines through. Wonder why I don't know pain and sorrow, Even in my mind. There must be some little room inside my heart for Memories that I just can't leave behind. (Chorus) It's all I can say, How the good shines through------ They were some good, they were some good They were some good years. I recall. I recall.

[@BotsFrankie]

[@catmarilyn9]

the band is getting smaller only 3

[@19.sciencetechnology30]

Something in the sound isn't quite right. I figured out what's missing. I need to hear more cowbell and less cowsills ! 😆
