The raspy n husky voice n the tragic n bitter memories seem to be made for each other. And when they are united in a well arranged music, you can only feel the significance in your own whispering labyrinth of solitude.
What an amazing woman! My partner's brother had the honour of hosting and presenting her in Cape Town at the Artscape Theatre. We had the privilege to meet her in person. She is down to earth, humble, has old school dignity, a great sense of humour and an infectious laugh. She has no pretences about her.
i couldn't agree more. I HATE this kind of open ended stuff. They did and still do the same with these talent shows like AGT or BGT or what ever. I could start a list of great artists auditioning for the first time in their life, and they sang a beautiful song or cover but only parts. Ridiculous.
My all time favorite song when I was a boy.now am 61 and still listening.For this live version I love the backup singer for her backup voice.she's amazing.👍👍👍
Sou do Brasil, e amo estas canções antigas, nos dão tanta paz, sou jovem cresci ouvindo estás canções e não troco por nenhuma das de hoje. Só hoje descobrir essa canção. 👏👏👏
It's the sort of song who ever sings it it would sound nice I've heard so many versions and they all sound I would love to see my grandchild to sing it and be number one
Once upon a time there was a tavern, Where we used to raise a glass or two. Remember how we laughed away the hours, And dreamed of all the great things we would do. Refrain: Those were the days my friend, We'd thought they'd never end, We'd sing and dance for-ever and a day, We'd live the life we choose, We'd fight and never lose, For we were young and sure to have our way. Lalala lah lala, lalala lah lala Those were the days, oh yes, those were the days. Then the busy years when rushing by us. We lost our starry notions on the way. If by chance I'd see you in the tavern, We'd smile at one another and we'd say: Refrain: Just tonight I stood before the tavern, Nothing seemed the way it used to be. In the glass I saw a strange reflection, Was that lonely person really me. Refrain: Through the door there came familiar laughter. I saw your face and heard you call my name. Oh, my friend, we're older but no wiser, For in our hearts the dreams are still the same. Вольный перевод. 1. Повстречались мы с тобой в таверне Выпили стаканчик или два И в тот час чарующий, вечерний О любви ты мне сказал слова. Припев: То были дни, мой друг, Когда узнала вдруг, Как от любви ночами не уснуть. Ночь в танцах без конца И в такт стучат сердца, И ожидает нас великий путь. 2. Только годы подшутили с нами, Развели на жизненном пути Вспоминаю я тебя ночами, Жаль, но не могу тебя найти. Прмпев: 3. Может снова встретимся в таверне И улыбку ты подаришь мне И проснется прежнее, наверно, Чувство, что таится в глубине. Припев: 4. Я надеюсь к нам вернутся снова Те незабываемые дни И услышу я три нежных слова, Что так сердце бережно хранит. Припев: 5. Я пришла к таверне в воскресенье И смотрю в оконное стекло Боже, то мое ли отраженье ? Время стать и юность унесло. Припев: 6. Через дверь раздался смех знакомый Слышу я, как ты зовешь меня И забилось сердце неуемно. Для меня счастливей нету дня ! Припев: 7. Стали мы и старше, и мудрее Но остались прежними мечты Я надежду сладкую лелею, Будем снова вместе, я и ты.
@@davemonday5381 it is Russian song."Those Were the Days" is a song credited to Gene Raskin, who put a new English lyric to the Russian romance song "Dorogoi dlinnoyu" [ru] ("Дорогой длинною", literally "By the long road"), composed by Boris Fomin (1900-1948) with words by the poet Konstantin Podrevsky. It deals with reminiscence upon youth and romantic idealism. It also deals with tavern activities, which include drinking, singing and dancing.
@@darkoretkereci6885 sorry for the late reply couldn’t find the original post. I saw it once credited to Paul McCartney. But I bow to your knowledge. It certainly sounds more Russian to me. Than Liverpool. You know your music well done. And a great song who ever wrote it. Cheers 🍻
@@davemonday5381 It's not written by McCartney the melody is Russian and even a lot of the English lyrics are by an American folk trio from the fifties.
So unterschiedlich sind die Geschmäcker. Ich finde die Version von Mary Hopkin eingängiger. Aber, auch diese Version ist keineswegs schlecht und wert gewürdigt zu werden.
I can't help but watch this version and think what a scary Mrs Bonnie would make, I knew her once. If I were her husband I know I would be wishing she wasn't quite so.... Bonnie for my own safety. I'd be hiding a corner somewhere. I'm mean this in a nice way because it's a bit like there's no stopping her once she's decided something might work and it's all good. I no some people would come over all meal looking and say 'Bonnie has had an idea.???' She was very determined to be very strong. It sometimes left everyone else nervous, I hope though that people can love the fact that different types of people make life more colourful. There was something going on in the world back in the day that was a guessing game for many as people tried to make the world a better place. I also want to say something else, there were times when I didn't know that I might be anything other than Welsh. I spent the majority of my life in Wales but I was sent around the world (or so it seemed to me) as a child, not always by the ticket paying route, see who was willing to do what and take from and abuse a child who had nothing. So now my memory is back and I don't know that I do feel the extreme Welsh loyalty that I have been threatened that I must. I am I assume whatever I have been raised by that is my upbringing and I don't know this was by Welsh people they said the once side were, I am used to seeing and playing in mountains, I thought polluted rivers with a rainbow of shine on top pretty though the truth was that they were poisened and i got overly excited if I saw a fish though people told me there was no food for it so for turning up in my world and pleasing me it would probably die. I still thought it special, this river looked like a waterfall to me had its own island on the other side of the bank , it wasn't an island it was the other side of the river but to me it was a sunny paradise to the cold side I was sat and sometimes it had frogs and toads and if the rainfall was too heavy I told myself they needed saving this made me feel important because they actually didn't look to well after plummeting over an industrial step at a decent force , it smelt bad too, it smelt of iron and metal in the blood but to me it felt free from our house and I was, hidden down over the bank with my dog and the potential to have secret because everyone knew everything about my life or tried to, so even if what called themselves friends tried to know me, they couldn't because I can go there another day without you, I can tell it to the dog I can tell it to the knew sheep that turned up who got stuck in the fence , I know other ways you don't so keep your clothes clean and lie to you parents and church Ive got others that know me like you can't and never will. The people who surrounded and sniggered at it all I don't know if they were Welsh. Something else was going on. People doing people favours and too many , way too many people who wanted to say they had it all tied up and had won either way. No I don't like many of you and I don't see why I have to all you have to do is stay away from what you don't understand. Leave it be, leave her be my grandfather would say, she's not hurting anyone.
I love her/// But could smbd tell her that this is an old song written by two Russians B. Fomin (music) and K. Podrevski ( Lyrics)... As for Pole he was a produser of of a song with lyrics in English....
I fell in love with "Total Eclipse of the Heart" then we come here to about 20 years later. Bonnie's voice has deteriorated from gravel to dump truck load of dirty stones. I don't like it, but that is only my personal opinion and taste. It does seem to have a place in music today, I am just not sure where but don't think this is it.
Did Bonnie say it was a Paul Mcartney song? That is what i understood from what she said. Cant translate the subtitles. Anyways.......... No way a Paul Mcartney song.
I think she confused some of the facts - Mary Hopkin's version, produced by Paul McCartney, was very popular around the world. But it was written many years before, adapted from a Russian song.

She has nice songs but this one she raped, to be honest.
This song is actually from Equatorial Guinea. It was composed by Francisco Macias Nguema. It was actually it's national anthem at one point (that part I am not joking about, unlike the first few statements).

Well said. I feel the same.
Did she have a cold that day?
@@vincentruvo6988 This was her voice

Yes, I thought the whiskey voice made it especially poignant
The author of this song is Boris Fomin, the russian composer. Its origin title is By The Long Road (Dorogoy dlinnoyu).
exactly..in the year 1924 the original version
Thank you
Bonnie's voice is right for this song. It's a shorter version but Bonnie knows what's best
What an amazing woman!

She is down to earth, humble, has old school dignity, a great sense of humour and an infectious laugh. She has no pretences about her.
She has the perfect voice for this song.
Agree
I also agree
Nuts, Bonnie. I love you, but you needed to sing the whole song!

Lots a lots of thanks for this vid, I like that song, exspecially sang by Bonnie Tyler. Got tears in my eyes this evening, hearing and watching it.
STEALS MY HEART
This is great Russian folk song.
I was 5 years old when Mary Hopkins sang this song. Did not know it would come true.
BEAUTIFUL.....VOICE.
BEAUTIFUL WOMAN
Oh dear! Goosebumps
I lived in Wales for 6 months, they are very kind people
Bonnie is amazing - Best British female singer since Dusty (who I do realise was Irish but you know what I mean).
I like this song it's great meening all singers have nice sound really.
Simply Outstanding
Justo lo que necesitaba esta canción,
El toque de voz de Bonnie le da ése sentido especial...
I live in Brazil but I'm a fan of this goddess of the female voice, Bonne Tayle
Voce unica .interpretazione come sempre sublime .cantata col cuore
ハスキーで少ししゃがれ声のボニー・タイラーさんが歌うこの作品を目を瞑って聴いていると、まるでロッド・スチュアートさんの歌声のようにも聞こえるから不思議です。
同じウェールズを出身とするトム・ジョーンズさんもどこかのステージでこの曲を今でも歌っていますね。
Русский романс. Такого нигде нет.
Sou do Brasil, e amo estas canções antigas, nos dão tanta paz, sou jovem cresci ouvindo estás canções e não troco por nenhuma das de hoje. Só hoje descobrir essa canção. 👏👏👏
Já ouviu a versão original, em russo? É dessa canção que o Silvio Santos criou o tema do seu programa.
Just about as different from Mary Hopkin singing this song as it's possible to imagine for two ladies from the same country.

Выпили стаканчик или два
И в тот час чарующий, вечерний
О любви ты мне сказал слова.
Припев:
То были дни, мой друг,
Когда узнала вдруг,
Как от любви ночами не уснуть.
Ночь в танцах без конца
И в такт стучат сердца,
И ожидает нас великий путь.
2. Только годы подшутили с нами,
Развели на жизненном пути
Вспоминаю я тебя ночами,
Жаль, но не могу тебя найти.
Прмпев:
3. Может снова встретимся в таверне
И улыбку ты подаришь мне
И проснется прежнее, наверно,
Чувство, что таится в глубине.
Припев:
4. Я надеюсь к нам вернутся снова
Те незабываемые дни
И услышу я три нежных слова,
Что так сердце бережно хранит.
Припев:
5. Я пришла к таверне в воскресенье
И смотрю в оконное стекло
Боже, то мое ли отраженье ?
Время стать и юность унесло.
Припев:
6. Через дверь раздался смех знакомый
Слышу я, как ты зовешь меня
И забилось сердце неуемно.
Для меня счастливей нету дня !
Припев:
7. Стали мы и старше, и мудрее
Но остались прежними мечты
Я надежду сладкую лелею,
Будем снова вместе, я и ты.
