Harry Nilsson - Everybody's Talkin' (1968)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 вер 2024
- Harry Edward Nilsson III (June 15, 1941 - January 15, 1994), known professionally as Nilsson, was an American singer-songwriter who achieved the peak of his commercial success in the early 1970s. His work is characterized by pioneering vocal overdub experiments, returns to the Great American Songbook, and fusions of Caribbean sounds. A tenor with a 3½ octave range, Nilsson was one of the few major pop-rock recording artists of his era to achieve significant commercial success without ever performing major public concerts or undertaking regular tours.[2] The craft of his songs and the defiant attitude he projected remains a touchstone for later generations of indie rock musicians.
I am a postal worker and many years ago I delivered a piece of mail to Harry and he answered the door and I will never forget it it was just before he passed away nice man
Midnight Cowboy.
That's nice to know.
Music que se ouve e nunca mais esquece😢
I sure would have loved to talk to him
one of the best things about 74 years old,Is the fact that i lived my teenage years in the 60,s that Is priceless and I am grateful!!!
72 years old here. Loved and miss the good old days
Indeed ,me too
Think we've seen the best dear friend
@@johnalison2444 no doubt about it
I envy you.
My Dad loved Harry Nilsson, especially this song, he was a medic in the Vietnam war, born in 1948, he would have been 74 in 2 days. I lost him 11 years ago and I play this song and sing along as if he is right here with me. I won’t let him leave my love behind ❤️
So sorry to hear about your father. He would be one year older than me.
1947 and still here
😍
Aqui no Brasil, eu ouço e gosto muito desta música.
Jeez... that's a little scary. I'm 74 now and yeah... at some point, your life ends. Sigh... I just want to live long enough to watch the US explode in 2024... lmao!
I was 18 years old when this song was released. The Vietnam war was raging on and I was scared that I would be drafted. I had a beautiful girlfriend. Hearing Nilsson’s incredible voice singing this incredible song takes me back to 1968 and a pivotal time in my life. Thank you Nilsson. I wish you were here with us
I bet he doesn't LOL
Thanks Jim
What happened with the girlfriend? Were you drafted?
Tenía 18 años y corria el año 1970. Vivía en España bajo el yugo de Franco, de la Iglesia Católica y de una familia disfuncional. Me marché de casa, me fuí a Paris. Allí trabajaba de "femme de ménage", vivía en una "chambre de bonne", me matriculé en Sociología en la Facultad de Vincennes y fui feliz. Desde el día, muy especial por cierto, en que vi la película y escuché esta canción creo que pocos días de mi vida he dejado de escucharla. Y a veces en bucle. Me pone la sangre hirviendo y me inyecta vida.
@@chrisfudge433 - "I bet he doesn't LOL" - What is that supposed to mean? He passed away almost 28 years ago!
Música pra ouvir com a alma alguém ouvindo em 2024 deixa um joinha❤️❤️🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
I close my eyes and let this music flood over and through me and I'm not 70 I'm 18 again. Just graduated from high school with my whole life ahead of me. Where has the time gone?
Done gone slip slidin' away is where. Altogether too much fun back then but what a ride.
Dear Lydia, your words touch me deeply. Your words are my own. And Soldier is correct... damn, it has been one hell of a ride. I'm going now to hear George Burns sing I Wish I Were Eighteen Again... and the tears that want to fall now... will flow. May I close with a saying from the old times... Peace. (No one uses that word that way anymore... not even me, and I use to use it all the time. We need it now... more than ever.)
Absolutely✌💖🤘
brilliant im 64 love this
I wonder the same thing. I long for those days.
this is fantastic, i am 63 and living a fantastic life, anyone out there that feels the same,
И мне 63.И я живу в России.И я тоже помню эту песню детства
@@user-jn7ks9nk1l nice to meet you from England, i hope your good, this is a great track, thanks for the comment take care my friend😀
I'm only 52 but as a child in the 70's, my mom played this song all the time. She's 74 and her health is failing. It takes me back when I was a tot living in our 2 bdrm apt. Dad always at work or fishing so that gave me a lot of time with her. My mother made me love all kinds of music. This one is one of my favorites. ❤
Recognizable. Same memories of those days with the family. Beautiful times❤
(Is my Hubby account) I Hope ypu're Mommy fells well fine now. Sending hugs.
@@johnnyerblues Thank you for your kind words. ❤
Moi le disque que j ai eu de mon papa x mes 18 ans je sortais de l hopital operation de l appendicite belle chanson
You are more a child of the 80s wishful thinking on your behalf I think.
This Song has to be one of the Top Ten Recorded Songs of all time. ❤
Can’t ever surpass the great music from this era in my opinion
Lol. I’m Black, born in 1962 and I love this song. RIP Harry ❤️
I was born in 1963 and I think we were privileged to hear the most beautiful music ever written from the late 50's to late 70's.
I was born in 1953 and I enjoyed the music more than anything, still do !! My kids love it, and grandchildren too !!!
I am the same way.
Born in 1963 too.
This song was perfect for midnight cowboy.
That was one of my dad’s favorite movies!
Hey, I'm Walkin' Here!!!
saudades desse tempo.se pudesse fazer voltar atrás
Isaac Robison I always cry at the end of Midnight Cowboy
Great movie.Forgot that one till now just going to look for it again.
Harry Nilsson was unbelievable. His singing range , his style , he was a real force back in the day . So talented, his best friend John Lennon advanced him $5 Million dollars when the record company turned him away . Harry Nilsson left us much to early as well as his friend, John Lennon. God bless both of these two .
Nilsson died 14 years after Lennon was assassinated. Can't blame Lennon
Did he get his money back ?
KoivuTheHab The people who have to comment, when it’s a really stupid one line comment or so it’s most likely these people were born 20-30 years later than the subject but know just about everything. Fairy tale? You probably just read one last night, Junior.
@KoivuTheHab Maybe it was spell check. It happens to.
The worlds in turnoil and knobheads complain about a spelling mistake?........get a life
Waiting for a departure date in 1970 for emigration to sunny Queensland Australia, this was the song that kept us going. Leaving dreary winter in England "going where the sun keeps shining" and where "the weather suits my clothes" was an anthem that we have never forgotten. Yes we "skipped over the ocean like a stone". After 51 years....still no regrets! Thank you Nilsson RIP
I was only nine years old. We had arrived in LA from Boston and were moving to California for a change of scenery. We were driving in the car and l heard this song. I get reminded of the miles of orange 🍊 groves as we cruised beside them. One thing is, that when l hear this, l get transported back California. I love to play this and other early seventies songs. 🎵 ❤
First heard this as an extremely young boy back in the 60s . Captivated me then and still to this day. Timeless.
Harry R.I.P. and Thank You for making this world a better place through your talents.
What a voice! One of the greatest vocal performances of all time.
ive got 49 years old, when i listen for first time this songs in intro of The Midnight Cowboy, chills me all mi skin, so sad and poetical. the lyric here its precious, one of the most beatiful songs ever. Harry Nilson have a voice of an angel
Essa música tava na minha mente 50 anos atrás
Brings back those Midnight Cowboy days
I was eight years old when this came out but it certainly made a profound impact on me. Harry-one of the greatest.
Who's still listening to this great song during the 2021 and 2022 pandemic? Or in 2024 because you just love this classic.
ME
I just listened to it cos I thought there was going to be more to it at the end. Now realise it was sent to piss me off....FAT CHANCE.
Me, me, me! August 8, 2020 opening of the Lions gateway portal today👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🥰🌻🕊❤️❤️❤️
@@butterflylady8875
Yay. 💓👍
Michelle Stolz -your response got me snooping. Never heard of this day and I am a Leo. What a brilliant song. Its almost as if took on the persona of Glen Campbell when he wrote and performed this gem. It’s been way too long since I heard it and makes up for the trauma I suffered as a result of “Like A Rhinestone Cowboy.” It’s a long story but suffice to say, 8 track singles should have been banned by bus companies in the early 70’s. That’s all I have to say on that subject.
Wonderfullll song
Banking off of the northeast winds. Sailing on summer breeze. The melody- poetic quality is pristine mint.
I was a big fan of Harry Nilsson back in the day. I still am. He had a magnificent voice and is gone way too soon. So sorely missed.❤
I´m here in 2023 after 50 years... RIP Harry Nilsson
Absolutely timeless! Relevant, tuneful, soulful a masterpeice! Harry Nillson an amazing voice and a wonderful song writer
I love this Song Harry Nillson voice is Amazing
This is a Fred Neil song. His version, or rather the original, is even better!
@@rsmith8434 and sometimes we have to agree that the original is better. In this case, certainly!
Fred Neil wrote a nice song, and his voice was nothing special. It took Nilsson to make the song a classic, with his very individual timing and perfect vocals. He have it great emotional feeling, which I never felt in Fred Neil's rendering.
And that, kids,is how it’s done; it’s called “talent”
No. They had talant.✌
Well that’s patronising!
Uh...that’s called “lip-synching”
No borrowing of anything
Harry Nilsson was an enormous and sadly underappreciated talent. That is, by the public at large. Fellow musicians and songwriters held him in high regard.
74yo here. And, we seem to know the words to all the songs. We were so lucky.
Boy! Talking about a song that everyone can relate to. It's always been a favorite of mine.
No school like the old school.🎼🎵🎶🎤
Just gorgeous. Soul-wrenching gorgeous.
I was 20 years .... I love this song. It reminds me when I saw midnight cowboy
I miss the 60’s and 70’s times was good back then music was good 😌 life was good
Yes your 100% correct Katie. And unfortunately never to be like that again. SAD 😥
But great comment glad you're listening. 👍💓
@@freedomisbrightestindungeons
Good point Shay.
👍💓😊
You're absolutely right m8, not because we've been young then, but because the world was still "right in the head".
The difference is back then society had values. Today values are something to be torn down and trashed. What does science call this process; entropy.
Best years of my life, I loved the 60’s and 70’s
I grew up listening to Nilsson because of my Step Father. We also loved the point, had the album and loved the animation movie. He was so talented. Still love him now
I was 3, very hard to listen to the beautiful past 💔
🌺🌺🌺Magic bella cancion Mucias grazias Irene Favorit ❤❤❤
Ah! Meus tempo de juventude! Não havia frescura! Éramos jovens que sabiam viver ! Sem mimimi, sem covardia, sem medo de enfrentar a vida!
Vaia con dios
@@klemmetv6875 Fique com ele pois vai precisar!
A masterpiece.
Everybody's talking at me
I don't hear a word they're saying
Only the echoes of my mind
People stopping, staring
I can't see their faces
Only the shadows of their eyes
I'm going where the sun keeps shining
Through the pouring rain
Going where the weather suits my clothes
Banking off of the northeast winds
Sailing on a summer breeze
And skipping over the ocean like a stone
I'm going where the sun keeps shining
Through the pouring rain
Going where the weather suits my clothes
Banking off of the northeast winds
Sailing on a summer breeze
And skipping over the ocean like a stone
Everybody's talking at me
Can't hear a word they're saying
Only the echoes of my mind
I won't let you leave my love behind
No, I won't let you leave
I won't let you leave my love behind
Shout out to the late song writer/singer, Fred Neil from Coconut Grove FL & the coffee houses The Flick & The Gasslight for this great 60's song.
Thanks love
@Geneva K the best....so simple and deep....stay safe, Geneva
Thank you so much for sharing. Bless you. 🤲💥
This is exactly what I did in January 2021 during the pandemic. I left the US and moved to Mexico!
God I could go back to those times in a heart beat Iam 74 years old now and l lost my beautiful wife Susan of 48 years ago I remember the Highschool dances The carsRiding around in my. 57 Chevy with my.girl There will never be a time like that again for young.teen ages Truly a time gone by
I hope you're doing well, Bill
We're speaking here of one of the most amazing movies ever.
Sort of, though the movie came three years after the song's release.
Although Harry is no longer with us, I could listen non-stop to this beautiful song these days, all day long. He was so amazing. Love from Taiwan in 2022.
The time when musician and singer were not role models, but their music was.
Id say that can still be true today
Wow, you said the 64 thousand dollars truth.
Take me back to where the weather suits my clothes
They're still not but only worse today 🙄
@@dannyboy2751 I couldn't agree more. 😄👍
In the early 70s, when my friends were buying "Tiger Beat" magazines and swooning over David Cassidy, my heart belonged to Harry. It still does!
My first love (and only "true" one) reminded me a lot of Harry, and he also loved his music. "The Lottery Song" was OUR song; he was a plumber and we did save up and take that Summer trip to Vegas... and we were very happy for 8 years.
Unfortunately, like Harry, Bert died way too soon. We were going to be married that year. 31 years ago, and I'm still not "over" him.
Lazy I Ranch, U will meet again....:-) Best!
@@flyingchariot9080 I hope so! I still dream about him. Thank you for your kind words!
Hey just from what I just read in your comment you sound like one Awesome lady. Peace..
U r such a solid sweet gal....long joyful life to u dear
Tiger Beat 😝😝😝 I forgot about that
I have always felt this song was kind of haunting...
Its haunting because he feels isolated, he talks about where he is going so there is hope but he hasnt left yet. The northeast is my home and i left here for a bit, this song hit me hard one day... and so i moved back
I always loved this song and often felt people "talking at me" and not to or with me but more themselves, beliefs or perceptions whether true or not. A note to self would occur where I could navigate my own reality while not becoming scripted or constrained by other people's fears or limitations.
Nice Cover of Fred Neal dong
@@zorancankovic3220 He covered his dong? LOL
Maybe because of a mental illness!
¡ Otra obra de arte de Harry Nilsson , más genial imposible !…
I miss him!! Amazing man I want to cry
Beautiful music from a troubled soul - thank you for being here, Harry ! ! !
There will never be another great like Nilsson. He was in a class of his own !
68 the year I was born.Great music
64, and love this.
It was different back then.
Goin' where the weather suits my clothes..memorable line.
Love that line. ❤
Nilsson and the song are both fabulous, as the many comments attest, but also note the superb orchestration and high quality production. Not many songs get this royal treatment. Superb all around.
the Orchestration arrangements/Violins, take this song to another level.
I was a teenager still trying to figure out life when this song came out. My idea of heaven will be when I can hear all the great songs like this and not have a care in the world. "I'm going where the sun keeps shining through the pouring rain." He didn't have a father around when he was growing up and he grew up poor. He became famous and then all his money got embezzled by a heartless person. I hope he's in heaven hearing us all rave about him and his songs.
Harry❤Ježíši,já se téhle písně nemohu nasytit !!!!!!!!!!
Navždy miláčku✌✌✌✌✌💋
Harry Nilsson forever
Wonderful footage of this American classic by Harry himself...what a treasure, thank you!
I was 5 yrs-old in 1970 and I remember my 1st grade teacher playing this song at lunch recess and it's been my life story for the last 50 yrs.
same here,
This was my grandpa’s song I play it for him when I go to cemetery and talk to pap
Nice.
yes!!! I love stories like this.
Your grandpa had good taste in music. This is surely one of my favorites.
Lucky you. I never knew my father's father. Great Guy with such a high human quality. Congrats.
seahawknproud66 That’s such a nice pr
Great to hear! Bless him and you
What a voice God, amazing singer.
I met Harry at a Beatlefest convention. What a wonderful time it was to listen to him talk about his career and the times he spent with John. R.I.P. Harry
So glad that I grew up in the greatest eras that we’ve ever had!!! Our music is priceless!
Born June 15, 1941. Happy birthday Harry
Didn't You see stupid he died on 94 jeeezzz
@@cazamilfs8945 Happy birthday to Harry anyway. Gone but not forgotten. Rip
Megalodon Morrison 🙄
Same age as Boris Johnson's Dad !!
I got the 15 June too but 18 years after!
How i love Harry Nilsson❤
He’s one of best songwriters ever. this is one of my all time favorite songs. I remember watching Midnight Cowboy growing up and falling in love with it subsequently discovering Harry’s music
It is a wonderful performance but this song was written by a folk artist named Fred Neil. He was even more of a character than Harry.
this song makes me so emotional and idk why
One of the greatest recording artists of all time RIP
Fabulous song. Theme song to the greatest of all movies, " Midnight Cowboy". Starring Dustin Hoffman and Jon Voight, the incredible movie won BEST picture in 1969. Everyone should see this show. Absolutely genius !!!
❤❤❤❤❤beste film,alle tijden groetjes
God this is as good as it gets. All of the sudden obsessed with this song.😊
One of the best songs of the Sixties and beyond.
Wow what a great song by legend singer harry.
Rest in peace.
You will be remembered for year's ahead to come especially with this song and all other songs especially without you
I loved this song, I love too much, and I listened since a chort time, I do not stop to listen... one hundred times, I learned her letters!!!. But I was born on 70, I loved this melody and each time I dream with this music, the best of legacy of Harry Nilsson, he will lives in my heart for ever and ever!!!!🎶🎵🎼🎶🎵🎼💗💙💙💚💛💗🧡❤
Brings back great memories.
WHAT AN AMAZING VOICE,I'M CRYING NOW
ua-cam.com/video/G-ZDKirjQgM/v-deo.html. This should move you also
I heard so many of his tunes on the radio growing up without realizing what a prolific songwriter he was. He left us too soon.
What other songs did he have that were hits other than this one and "Without You"?
@@floogelhornzzz4770 The coconut song, for one. He was a prolific songwriter. He has a vast library of songs.
He wrote One, which he recorded before Three Dog Night hit #5 on the charts with it. His songs Without Her, Cuddly Toy, One, and Maybe, were on albums that hit the #Top 10 with Glen Campbell, The Monkees, Three Dog Night and Barbara Streisand. Not bad for a guy who NEVER performed on any appearances or tours.
For me, this song always brings back a particular moment in time. I remember this song playing on the radio when I was a toddler, on an overcast day, at my grandmother's house.
🌹🌹🌹
That's so beautiful, thank you for sharing that. I was also just a tot when it came out, and share a fond nostalgia for that time. And for some reason, an overcast day puts me in mind of this music; being in the house instead of playing outdoors...maybe because back then it was an actual act to play an LP on the stereo, or to turn the radio on and have it fill the house, instead of just pressing "play" on the appendages we've grown i.e. our smart phones. xoxo
@@just4music687 Thank you. And yes, I agree. At my nan's house, the radio was what she listened to only her music on, and if the stereo was on then it was my aunt's or uncle's music playing. So many of my earliest music memories are attached to a particular moment in time, such as where I was, what kind of day or night it was, etc.
Was this song in the croods trailer or something?
Whaaaaa-whaa-whaaa.. ..this song is AWESOME!!!
My dad had his greatest hits on vinyl. I’d pop it on the record player, put the headphones on and listen over and over. This and Sound of Silence were my favorites in the late 70’s, early 80’s.
Siempre que escucho esta canción me dan ganas de llorar. Por que no se quizá por ese tiempo que no volverá . quizá por que mal que bien eramos felices . Ahora a mis casi 70 años con hijos nietos soñando que no a pasado el tiempo aún estamos de pie y soñando . Gracias a Dios .
One of the most under rated artist ever bec of stage fright … if I had his voice I’d be strutting like Tina Turner .. he was GREAT and this song will never grow old ..
One tune that I won't get tired offff hearing, absolutely beautiful brilliance of a tune, Lovely Bubbly Jubbly!
The strings in this are sublime RIP Harry x
Ah, back then, we couldn't hardly believe these terrible conditions projected in the film , Thank goodness we live here with our NHS system. Little did we know in just over fifty years hence, we'd be in a very similar situation , homeless, unemployed down and out folk sleepin' rough, just like depicted in this film ! Hoping for better times for all !
Fred Neil wrote this, his version is good too. Sweet melancholic masterpiece takes me back to my youth.
Correct Sir.
A true genius...thanks for cheering me in these troubled times.
I'm so mad that this man is not still with us. He was talented.
Don't be mad. Be grateful he was ever with us.
Great song and a great vocal. Digging young Harry's moves here as well. Boyish charm.
Wonderful! 26-27 years old. Thank you Harry for sharing your talent.
Cuando escuchas ésta canción y ves la película , quisieras estar en esa época de los 60's en donde había de todo como hoy, pero menos maldad , había libertad , y eras feliz con cosas sencillas, una hermosa canción con una voz muy especial, gracias .
como sellama la pelicula de esa cancion porfavor desirmlo
Siiiiiiiii, en esos años
éramos niños felices y con tan poco, éramos pobres pero felices jugábamos hasta con tierra hacíamos tortas de barro, y si llovía salíamos a la calle a mojarnos y no nos pasaba nada, ahora las mamás a todo le temen.
Nos compraban ropa solo para el 18 de septiembre o en navidad si es k había dinero si no, no.
Los zapatos nos duraban toda la temporada de colegio y la ropa nos la iban heredando de hermano en hermano.
Comíamos sanos no había mucho así k comíamos lo k hubiera y pan solo nomas y de bbdas. ni hablar se compraban solo para la ocasión, aguita para pasar la sed o agua con harina tostada y de postre frutas solamente, nada de postre en envasados.
Ay me desahogue JiJiJi
Saludos desde Chile y k tiempos aquellos k no volverán 😷😷😷😷🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱
respaldo completamente tus palabras ,,,era una época solo de felicidad

Powerful song.
Harry was the best singer ever to walk this earth
That's one of the greatest songs ever recorded.
Excelente canción , una voz única. Great music, great memories. Greatings.
Beautiful voice. A time where music was real. A story with every song.
I miss the 60's and 70's music.
This song tugs at my heartstrings more than most. Harry was a multidimensional singer, but this was my favorite. Remember Lime in The Cocoanut? That man could do it all. Harry called the doctor and woke him up. :)
