    Wonderful, my all time favourite song. This is the first time that I have seen Petula actually singing “Sailor” on film.

    I took my 6 year old daughter to see her in concert in her late 70's in Birmingham and she looked great and never missed a note! My daughter has loved her since she was a toddler!

      Good for you! I'm pleased that you have discovered music from the 60s. This one is an absolute cracker. Out of interest, there is a German version by Andrea Berg called Seemann, ua-cam.com/video/zctb-3jEAnQ/v-deo.html

    The first time I heard this song was in 1967 when it was played on armed forces rsdio and I was crew member aboard the USS CLEVELAND just off the coast of Vietnam. It was the German version recorded by⁸ Lolita. When it came on we would stop whatever we were doing and listen. It was and still is one of my favorite songs, and I still stop and listen.

    Beautiful lovely spiritual song. , a little snippet of information for your viewers , when petula was a young girl , she trained and sang with a friend of mine. In Scotland , opera. , one was petula one was Julie Andrews the other was Maureen ,part of the Mackenzie clan , will not give her second name now. Observe her privacy but what a voice for opera , she never saught stardom. But she could sing anywhere , no mike , and. Hold a halls attention. , a graceful lady a true lady , my friend , god bless her , 💗🙏

    This song by Petula has been part of our family for many generations at all levels, Sister, brothers, cousins etc, it was also played at relatives passing when they went to the great Music Hall in the sky... but in an accepted sense. This has been happening since I was in my early teens right up to this era, and I've always remembered the words I'm now 79 and most of our Family still play this music when we get the chance, its not a sad song but gives me positive vibes. There's also a version sung by Ann Shelton which has the same quality as Petula's version, and sounds just as good. Its good to see other Music lovers still remember this song.

    This was pre-British invasion (Beatles, Stones, etc.) when Petula was (and had been since the early 1940s) the sweet darling of the British entertainment world. Note who the emcee is at the beginning: None other than the 1950s British heartthrob, Cliff Richard. They've both thrilled and entertained the music world for generations!

    the only thing that can match her beauty is her voice...she is still with us.....thankfully...i remember she was on the show with one of our black singers...and the producers didn't want her holding on to her black singer while doing a number together....she said i will have not of that and she took hold of him..and they got over being shocked of seeing a white singer holding on to a black singer...i thought she not only had a great voice...but she had character as well...what a great lady....i loved her singing as a teen....and i still lover her today...
