The Hollies - The Air That I Breathe (BEST QUALITY) (1974)

Transferred from an original 1974 pristine video master copy, this magnificent chart-topper by the Hollies and written by Albert Hammond deserves proper presentation on KZbin. Originally recorded by Phil Everly, when the Hollies reunited with brilliant lead singer Allan Clarke this magnificent song and performance heralded another run of fabulous hit singles from one of the most consistent hitmakers from the UK.

You do not have to go into the past to enjoy this music,it will always be there,just because we get older doesn't mean we can't travel back in time in our hearts and minds and bring up vivid memories of our youth. My wife ,God rest her soul,when asked how old she was ,would reply," I'm 16 and I'm going through my second child hood ,and I'll never grow up," she honored this until the day the Lord Jesus called her home. So stay young at heart and don't ever let anyone say to you " act your age" So enjoy this music, and always stay forever young. BECAUSE LIFE is very short . GOD BLESS YOU.

She almost left him for me, but I asked her, "What if, in a year, you realize you made a mistake?" I couldn't bring myself to even think about making her unhappy. I recontacted her some 30 years later, and she remembered the times we had together fondly. I'm in a happy marriage with another loving woman, but still think of her often. She spent her years married to someone she was happy with. I don't regret it, but I still have feelings for her. I wish her nothing but the best.

A very sleepy over tired and overworked man on his way home after a double shift crossed the double line and killed my nephew instantly on his Harley when he was less then 5 minutes from his destination. My bother has been lost ever since. He is now homeless. He needs prayers. His grief is as big as a mountain. This song was always so beautiful but at almost 6 years to the anniversary of our families loss, this song has me in tears worrying about my little brother who can’t seem to pick himself up.

I first heard this song when I was 11 in 1974, and it remains one of my favorites 50 years later!

I love how many old folks are here, Im mid 50 and this song permeated the air that I breathe very distinctly.

My dad loved this music .. I grew up listening to it every Saturday night it was our music night, he blasted his stereo, he still has all his albums. Thank you dad, for teaching me to love music❤

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous song.

[@sseg.9565]

Absolutely. ❤

[@douglashall2141]

While everyone else was enjoying the rolling stones, I was listening to the prodigies called The Hollies who followed up The Beatles. They had so many great hits. And that was the era of what came to be known as the British Invasion musically . Some of the best music ever produced

I started listening to this music when I was a kid, back in the 80s, now it is 2024, Still loving it.

[@barrysheridan9186]

Popular music when it had a melodic quality to it. A superb song.

[@mrsTraveller64]

This song means a warm sunny sumerday for me! I was10 yrs old in --74, was listening to this kind of music on the radio,especially on Sunday mornings with the family❤️

[@nazarethdealmeida3491]

👏👏👏♥️♥️♥️

[@markywellsboy2182]

11 years old and ditto

[@garys8357]

An Albert Hammond song, but the Hollies nailed it, better than the original even. Saw them live back in 1980, they have an amazing catalogue of hits and this was my mums favourite, so it has to be good !

[@blackscotydog]

Allen Clarke...oh my god what a voice. No auto tune needed......

[@Mr755134]

62 years young brother still rocking to music from the best decades of all time….60’s & 70’s hands down.

[@pemberwick]

It's magnificent - it's what happens when you don't compose with a sequencer. True songwriting.

[@muz3886]

Can't agree more!

[@sheilawatkins4007]

I feel so privileged to have been a child of the sixties AMAZING ❤

[@bobknob5819]

Back to a time when the radio was exciting knowing another classic was coming.
