I came here after my student sang this song. I asked them to sing their favorite song as part of our activity, and she sang this. Who would have thought that a student in 2nd Grade loves this kind of music? Her taste really is sooooo great!
Can’t listen to this song without the memory of my mama. She would sing this song to me when I was a little girl & tears were always in her beautiful brown eyes. When I asked why the song made her so sad she said she missed her mama & daddy and the tiny Mississippi town she grew up in. She’s been dead for 35 years now & I play and sing this song to her.
Just watched this movie, Bullet Train and this was one of the background songs. It has reignited a love I've had for this song. Now l have it playing on repeat. Truly beautiful
Reminds me of the story of my great grandfather who, after the battle of Gettysburg, walked 600 miles back to the mountains of North Carolina. My great grandmother didn't recognize him and made him wait outside while she got him something to eat.
You can imagine what he would have looked like after 600 miles. But they made ém tough, then. Can you also think of what your poor great grandmother felt like when she realised who was standing outside. Tellya wot, The50Fordman, that's a good story from your family archives.
Needs to be a movie about your great grandfather! What a fuckin Gentleman and a Scholar!!! Can I ask what side he was on? Doesn’t mater to me either way. I’m from the south. But all that fought that war. We’re kin... it’s sad as hell to think of your cousin lived just a county to the north or south. They became enemies. But. Yeah. They don’t make em like that no more.. I consider myself an old soul. And I would die for my country. And would walk 1000 miles back to my one true love. Or more. Die tryin. You should find a way to tell your great grand dads story to some director or screen writer somewhere somehow. Good thing we got internet nowadays. Haha. Go for it buddy!! I’d watch that movie.!
I have a picture of his twin brother who was in the 1st NC Cavalry but none of him. I also have a picture of my great grandmother When she was in her 60s. The hard life of farming showed on her.
Comigo foi assim também... marcou minha infância pra sempre e os anos 60. Eu tinha uns 5 anos e quando ouvi essa melodia, alguma coisa maravilhosa ficou gravada pra sempre.
played this on my grandma's funeral last year.. wished I could turn back time to when I was a kid just to spend time with her. she gave me the best childhood.
It was 1963 and i was12 years old. My high school music teacher introduced me to Peter, Paul and Mary singing 500 Miles. I've forgotten her name but never forgot the song and it enlightened me the first time i heard it, like a switch was turned on inside me...understand? One of the rare performances of a song which makes me cry and i believe it impressed me so much i can't shake off the memories of all people and music i loved in the sixties from that day on? Felt the need to say that? Peace.
One of my dads favorite songs. He would listen to this over and over in the morning. I'd hear him singing to it from my room. I'll miss you dad forever. Thank you for using this song to come thru that spiritual door for 2 seconds. I'll never forget that day. I love you dad, from your youngest son. RIP Dad ❤ your spiritual journey was beautiful. Ahut ayy al ✊
More than half a century ago, I left my home in Hawaii to go to the University of Iowa with no expectation of returning. I would sing this song with 4,000 miles and thousand mile increments incorporated into the lyrics. It brought pain, relief, and acknowledgement into my being.
My little prayer: When it comes for my time to go, I'm going to submit a special request chit (navy talk) to God to let me go back and re-live the 60's, 70's and 80's And then to be rejoined with my departed family and the good times when we partied to an extraordinary era of talent and original music. Amen! (it was heaven on earth)
A memorable song which strikes the chords of our hearts by its poignancy and sweetness especially when sung by the great band of the late Mary Travis, Peter and Paul.
It was 1995 when I heard this song first time. Those were my school days, even at that time I got goosebumps. Emotions crawled in me till 2 days . I asked the boy who sanged the song in school, but he himself was unable to tell the source. I was sad. However later in 2006 I got the whole song . Lovely song . I too missed my train in 2007 . Still regret why I didn't took courage?
Just heard this song on a movie we just watched and then I remembered, my class and I were taught it by our teacher, Miss Gavin, she would bring her acoustic guitar to class and sing to us. This was catholic school, (grade school), school didn't really do much regarding music, but it was fun to us, cause it broke up our daily schedule. TY Miss Gavin, wherever you are.
I heard this on a show today and I loved the singer's voice and it sounded like a good song. I remembered some of the lyrics and Googled it so that is why I am here. I normally don't like female singers but Mary has such a beautiful voice 💙💛❤💚💜
There is a very serene feeling we get from this song that is universal. Perhaps, even the toughest thug would cry like a baby when listening to this masterpiece.
I cant help but to cry while listening to this song. It reminds me of the most sensible preacher in the world. He is almost 500 miles away from his home.. And he misses us a lot... He's home country...
remind me when first time i left my home town in central java 27 years ago, it is almost 500 mile away from where i live my live with my beloved wife and 3 of my sons now.
This song, more than any other song I know of reminds me of my time in Vietnam..1967-68. If you can find it in your heart, give rest to that war, and those who fought and died for our South Vietnamese friends.
This song is sung so beautifully, Mary, along with Patsy Cline had a way with songs that no one else seems to have mastered. This surely will go down as one of the best sung songs ever. RIP Mary & Patsy.
Thank you for the post...many memories out there and still making more ol couple way down in TX TX 50yrs this year...Goodness Grace and Happiness to all people...
I came here after my student sang this song. I asked them to sing their favorite song as part of our activity, and she sang this. Who would have thought that a student in 2nd Grade loves this kind of music? Her taste really is sooooo great!
Sending my love to this kid
Teachers influence
❤❤❤
Kudo to her grownups for giving her this music
I came here after watching Joy the first IVF baby. I heard this song when I was young. For some reason it sounds sad at the same time it evokes peace.
Same 🥹🥹 here because of Joy ❤ loved this movie
Listening to this as a 16 year old make me feel that i have it easy to be born in this generation
We do and we can’t take it for granted! 💪🏼
Their voices. Always ssshhh. Their voices.
Can’t listen to this song without the memory of my mama. She would sing this song to me when I was a little girl & tears were always in her beautiful brown eyes.

I’m here cause of the movie too
Same here :)
Yes it's sung beautifully in the movie bullet train 👍😊 Also Peter - Paul & Mary sing a really great version too 👍 Steve from Australia 🇦🇺
Absolutely. Heard it first on Bullet Train and had to search the music out. I love seeing people who have a unique taste for good music.

I first heard this song when I was six yo. and I immediately fell in love with Peter, Paul and Mary. And I'm still in love with them. Now I'm 65.
Imagine being in the farm with this song play
Saw PPM in the beginning in NY. 69 here

@Joe D Yes.. I often dreamed of her and woke up in tears, it's like she was right here beside me again, woke up and she's gone
@@PeachpandaDiaries Oh yeah, sure do know that feeling. The silence is deafening after that.
@@PeachpandaDiaries God bless
🙏
Is well ❤
My mother use to sing this to me when I was little still makes me cry.
Awwwwww ❤

Here because I heard Peter Yarrow passed away. This has always been my favorite song of theirs and it always makes me tear up every time I hear it.
A memorable song which strikes the chords of our hearts by its poignancy and sweetness especially when sung by the great band of the late Mary Travis, Peter and Paul.
I never knew old song can be this great. Huge respect for the great old singer.
This song touched my heart! I remember listening to this years back, it still recalls my memories.
Im just a 12 year old kid but I can hear this song on my father's playlist thing. I just liked it as much as my dad does.
we have a good taste in music
I Luv MC Bows
Preetha Narvekar ㅎ
Same....I'm 12 and I found this on mu mum's playlist
I'm 11, & My grandma played this song in the car one time.
I like the song, so I asked what is was, And here I am!
We are lucky to have elders :)
Mary travers....what a voice....stunning ...enough said.

That painting is just something else and it goes perfectly whit this legendary song.
Beautiful. Thank you Mr Inbetween for introducing me

I missed the train 7 years back. Still regret it.
Puneet Sood that made me tear up.. I'm sorry.
I love the musik of Peter, Paul und mary since over 40 years.
Reminds me of all the people trying to make a better life in a strange place. When I did it 50 years ago most people were very kind. Be kind people.
I agree with you
I LOVE THIS SONG I AM A FAN OF PETER PAUL AND MARRY
I'm Sick rn and I'm listening to this songs to heal

My heart can never get enough of it. My heart melts and it howls for that plight those people had to go through. Alrighty! Bring back the peace...
The first song I heard after my dad died. It absolutely wrecked me, and I sobbed for 3 straight hours.
감정이 용솟음 친다...심금을 울리는 너무 좋은 노래 입니다. 감사합니다 🧡
Belo vídeo clip! Peter, Paul and Mary, estão em nossos corações. Eu tenho um LP deles de 1970 que tem essa música magnífica.
Mr. Inbetween brought me here. Incredible song.
Me too, that scene broke me :(
@@ph6475”Nah, I’ve got got go” that scene and a few others from that show left me speechless.

21 GUN SALUTE SIR👩✈️
Thanks Michael Biodrowski for not forget ours fallen South Vietnamese friends. God bless you and your family.
To be honest, one of the most beautiful songs ever. You are allowed to disagree.
*Aren't*
This song is sung so beautifully, Mary, along with Patsy Cline had a way with songs that no one else seems to have mastered. This surely will go down as one of the best sung songs ever. RIP Mary & Patsy.
Check out kd lang and Joni Mitchell!
Hedy West wrote this song in 1961 she also recorded it as did Peter Paul & Mary ! So did at least 2 or 3 others..
Man! Does this song take me back to outdoor camp in the early 1960's.It's a good memory! Thanks for the upload! R.K.

1963년경 중학교생이었던 제가 처음 외국 노래를 배워 부른 노래였기에 얼마나 감회가 있었겠읍니까?그시절로 돌아 갈수없는 세월에 가슴 먹먹하게 시려 옴니다.그래도 또 듣고 갑니다.
