Beautiful instrumental music first heard this in December 71 still after 53 years it still sounds brilliant ❤

[@beverleyringe7014]

Always loved this song, still do, very sad but beautiful.

[@jimduffy1967]

I've been on this planet 60 years and never heard a better instrumental hit than this, fantastic guitars keyboards etc, and I still cry every time I hear this tune/classic instrumental.

[@johannsebastianbach7150]

My Ma turns 60 this week and I chose this song for a small show. Once she showed me this song and told me how much she loves it. I also like it!

[@Andy-lm2zp]

Had to check this was not my posting ! Totally agree, timeless beauty !

[@Andy-lm2zp]

Hear hear!

[@tilleulenspiegel-kanal6626]

And he will return. Very soon!

[@macman3022]

Those words you wrote felt very familiar , a kindred spirit is born .

[@nikwatt]

That is FANTASTIC. It is no wonder so many want it played at their funeral.

[@richleeson2160]

Polydor record label, released in 1971, I still have the original, never tire of it, great track

[@kevinmulrooney3353]

Simple, stunning, simply stunning, even after 51 years

[@Cownijntje]

I will have this played at my funeral: so beautiful, and I do believe I will come back to this earth....

[@ducatiman1309]

[@Studmuffin666]

My brother was 14 when he played this over and over 😁, I was 6 years old and I loved it then, still get the gooses when I play it, love reading the comments it's nice to remunis 😉

[@cloughey1]

One of the best instrumentals ever, always loved this.

[@1yarrok]

The most beautiful music I've ever heard. I've been in music for almost 50 years - this is a pearl !!!

[@robbieclarke5694]

Only thing that I could compare was Albatross

[@DerFuchs-zi1ke]

Wunderschöner Titel. Ich möchte mal sterben, bei einer solchen schönen Musik.. DANKE, daß es Dich gab. RIP.

[@sarahmcmanus2894]

If ever a track deserved to be digitally re-mastered, it's this one!

[@EveryCrazyDay]

This song is truly a incredible testimony to the power of music and the emotional effect it can have on someone. There’s an incredible sense of tragedy and despair but it fights to the end with strength, hope, optimism. I’m not religious but “I Will Return” feels almost sacred. Truly incredible.

[@9641roger]

I have always loved this and feel sure that a small part of it is taken from Abide With Me

[@ronaldwei3131]

Totaly underrated tgis song

[@glenstephens1186]

Sometimes, words alone are insufficient to explain something so beautiful ,so ethereal. Bless your soul, Phil. Bless your soul.

[@chiefmouser7]

Phil… who? Probably not Collins,I guess . I remember that from my teenage days but forgot it completely until today.

[@lindacollings8154]

I loved this in the 70s & I love it just as much now. Beautiful song

[@georgemilne619]

Wonderful instrumental, this was released when I was 15, where has the time gone

[@colinbamblett85]

What can i say.. Pure genius phil. RIP.

[@margaret3367]

I was 14 or 15 when I first heard this piece of beauty. I love it and glad to see how it is significantly appreciated by true intelligent people.

[@onlylexus]

The very first record I ever bought, it made me cry, can't really say why, but hey, I was only fifteen at the time. I still love that dreamy sound as I did back then, love on, love on.

[@jimduffy1967]

Yes Paul this tune definitely makes you want to cry ,I remember hearing this all those years ago ,still just as brilliant, timeless piece of music but somehow sad and melancholic.

[@canyoudigit6321]

Heard this recently on radio 2, i think it was the johnnie walker show. I recognised it straight away as a track i heard on the radio as a child of about 4 years around 71,amazing how it stuck in my brain all these years later.

[@oceanwanderer8065]

This always tore my heart out--beautiful.

[@ronaldvonk5289]

many thanks for this upload... magistral... cellestial... beautiful... brings back many memories, at 65 of age...

[@shawniemar]

I love this song so much! I'm so glad I have the 45.

[@Slaktrax]

PLEASE, somebody re-release this masterpiece again. The best, most emotional instrumental EVER!

[@TheB32905]

Ein Lied für die Ewigkeit!! Es wird immer in meiner Seele weiterleben. Erinnerung an Weihnachten 1971. Ich war erst 6 Jahre damals aber der Song hat mich noch lange in meinem Leben begleitet, und gibt mir auch heute noch Kraft. Es lebe die Erinnerung! Rudolf der damals noch in Delbrück wohnte.

[@ianhumphries6487]

i remember this outstanding classic well

[@jimduffy1967]

this is a fantastic piece of music, I remember it from the time I was 13. the guitar is brilliant, and this tune stands the test of time.

[@trevormoore439]

jimbob1 Snap jimbob I was 13 as well we witnessed the best music years ever.

[@jimduffy1967]

Trevor Moore too right Trev great minds and all that, don't know about you but I feel sad melancholic listening to this now. Still sounds great but I don't know I end up in tears hearing it now.

[@junevanstaden6010]

Absolutely stunning

[@weementaldavy5987]

I was 17 , them were the days .

[@paulfoley8294]

I bought this piece of lovely, thoughtful piece of music back in the day. It moved me also. Still does, in a good way. Happy days.

[@Geoffreytomlinson24]

What a great sound still good in 2023!

[@kyotocoversjimanderson782]

Loved this from the first time I heard it. Melancholy and beautiful.

[@jeanettesimmonds8134]

My brother played this record for me when I was just 9 years old and I played it over and over absolutely loved it. My brother died in 1986 and this reminds me of him

[@kennyfilson4709]

the first time i ever asked a girl to dance , think i was about twelve or thirteen , crazy but the feeling comes back the minute i hear this fantastic tune, the fear of her saying no and the joy inside when she said yes

[@paulineklopper]

I had the same expirience, close intime dance, I was 16...the boy who asked me was nerverse but held on the whole number...so did I...

[@kennyfilson4709]

@@paulineklopper your comment popped up on my phone just now and I had to listen to it all the way through again lol I'm 61 now but for a wee while there I was thirteen again ♥️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍

[@jappiemacdonald7945]

my mother used to tell me about this incredible song when i was still a baby,she said this was my favourite song .i love this song.

[@ducatiman1309]

had forgotten how great this is !!!!

[@shaunlowthian4234]

The first tune I ever learned to play, on a Japanese guitar I bought for a fiver. I still have it and now they tell me, it's worth around two grand. It isn't going anywhere.

[@MichaelFurbank-nl2lz]

I went through so much parental abuse, but this always got me through, and stays in my mind still.

[@Rotkif2807]

Obiecuję powrócić, jeszcze nie raz i nie dwa. Ta muzyka na to zasługuje !

[@jeanettesimmonds8134]

I remember my brother playing this on our radiogram when I was just 10 years old this is the first time I've heard it since and it reminds me of him

[@alexandrefernandosousa917]

Muito melancólica, mas de uma beleza infinita !

[@megsmam]

HEARD THIS IN THE EARLY 70S WHEN I SERVED IN NORTHERN IRELAND GREAT TUNE

[@tinus.8764]

Wunderschöner Song. Damals auf Platz 1 in der schweizerischen Hitparade.

[@Bruce15485]

Brilliant ! How can anyone get that much emotion out of an instrument ? Sometime emotionally hard to listen to ! Phil Cordell was a great guitarist ! The next best person I think could play this song is David Gilmour (Pink Floyd).

[@juttakubat7190]

Meine erste Liebe .Noch heute denke ich dabei an ihn

[@rosepeters8038]

Beautiful

[@flooberbloob]

He was extraordinary. He adapted classical motifs and multitracked himself like Mike Oldfield would later. I would take "I will return" and "Stone Cross" over many bands entire output, even on bagpipes...

[@alansimon1354]

Funny you should say that. I was just thinking how much he looks like Mike Oldfield!

[@nikwatt50]

I wonder how a lyricalless tune can be so sad?

[@rolffriedrichwitte]

❤ i never vorget this Gread Band and this Love Song. 😢

[@stevecarp7435]

Why does it make me cry?

[@johndeere-rp3te]

Just lovely

[@ducatiman1309]

This needs re-released for these Covid days ??? xx

[@gudruntrede]

That is great. I have forgotten but now it is return

[@straycatsean]

One man made this song. His name was Phil Cordell. He was also known as Dan the Banjo Man.

[@fcamsterdam4364]

Not my first record I bought but the one I allways will remember as a great one, ty vm for posting. I am 11 again !!

[@AndrewWilliams-zc1hf]

A wonderful tune

[@RobertSoer]

Nice memories from thecend of the '60-ties..

[@TheAugustino]

Their doesn't appear to be a lot written about Phil and his extraordinary career. Someone,notably a musical journalist should delve into his musical background and uncover what motivated him to write 'I Will Return' and 'Stone Cross'. and other possible compositions................

[@annezevenberg7280]

geweldig nummer

[@lindacollings8154]

Wish there was a replay button for this

[@patravichobrienski4129]

This tune used to get played at slow funeral marches by military bands back in the 70s

🎶 "Abide With Me" 🎶 That's it !

Remember this being on Top of the Pops February 1972 slightly different video. Top 5 one hit wonder.

[@jimduffy1967]

Fantastic !!!

[@stevemorley861]

For the people who worked hard at their music and didn't always get the reward they deserved ...

[@jimduffy1967]

So ahead of it's time.

[@ronaldwei3131]

Underrated!!!!!!

Surely this needs re-issued so that younger folks can enjoy ?
