My favorite Helen Reddy song. I play it at least once a month. That line "... and I can wait for fate to bring around to me any part of my tomorrow, tomorrow." That is the epitome of being at peace.
Oh my God - bring back the 70’s. So much amazing music and singing talent. Today’s “singers” can’t touch that talent. Helen R was amazing. Her beauty and voice were captivating. She Was Woman!!
This must be 1973 because this tune came out in 1973 and that same year, Bobby Darin passed away after coronary surgery in December 1973! This is my favorite song by Helen Reddy! Sadly it's a forgotten gem!
Agree.......This is a beautiful song......."I am Woman was also a great song".......Her 2 best.. Well i wasn't sure if "I don't know how to love him", was an original by her as that is a great song also and she sings it well......From Jesus Christ Superstar...But i believe it was sung first by someone else..Yvonne Elliman...I could be wrong though.....Helen was a pleasure to watch singing....
Wow. She sounded almost 100% as in her studio version. Not many singers can do that. Check her out on UA-cam videos from about 8 years ago. She was in her early 70s (she even tells the audience she is 7 years old) and sounded fantastic. RIP Helen Reddy.
Had Helen still has a wonderful voice saw in concert in 2013 and her voice hadn't change l was amazed on how beautiful her voice sounded for her early seventies
God! I remember in High School in the mid 70's all of our rock and roll friends were in love with Stevie Nicks and Ann and Nancy Wilson from Heart, and Linda Carter Wonder Woman, and Charlies Angels, and Marcia Brady, and Barbara Eden, etc..Maybe..But I Thought Helen Reddy, Toni Tenille, and Karen Carpenter were knockouts, and they sang so great too....But you couldn't tell your friends..lol...frankm62yearoldwhitekid rockfan
One of my favorite songs of hers I saw her in concert when this album came out and have loved her ever cents. Rest in power beautiful lady you are strong
This couldn't have been long before Bobby's untimely passing. From an era when a few musical performers tried their hand at variety(Tom Jones, Bobby Vinton, Tony Orlando and Dawn and of course, Sonny and Cher). You can't deny the quality. However, unless it's on a top 20, this date in 197_, radio doesn't know what to do with pieces like this these days(except maybe for limited range AM stations).
Helen was very pretty at this time in her life. This song, although not written by her, was a good song for her talent. She did this song better than the guy who wrote it, as it seemed to bring out her talent.
This is a cover of Ken Rankin's song. I like this one better I think. It's funny how they had to change the second verse due to the fact that a woman was singing it. Rankin's version says: "I had a son while on the run And his love brought a tear to my eye And maybe someday he'll up and say That I was a pretty nice guy, oh my." But Helen's says: "I had a song while on the run And it's love brought a tear to my eye And maybe someday you'll up and say We had a pretty nice time, oh my." I guess in the 70s, a woman couldn't have a son while on the run. Would make her look morally corrupt. Still love this song though. Hardly ever hear it. RIP Helen Reddy.
Helen Reddy never appreciated by her native country the media or the people unlike Olivia Newton John Australia never really took to Helen I’m not sure why but I do know Helen was disappointed that she was not appreciated in Australia for her USA success

I believe that this rarely air played gem, was her finest piece.
I completely agree!!
Agreed 💯
Me too
I'd have to agree but then I love so many of her songs, it's hard to pick a favourite
Yeah I think so too. But still prefer the Georgie Fame version. RIP Helen x
This came on the radio today. Hadn’t heard it since the 70s. Thank you Hellen Reddy for sharing your talent and spirit
The singers of today can t touch her voice no autotune here pure talent, all class sing with the angels RIP

Wasn't this written by Kenny Rankin?
@@Keyboardman88 yes it was
Yup! A forgotton gem just like Helen 🙏🏻❤️
Can't believe this fine and beautiful Aussie is actually gone. Her voice will live on as will her wonderful memory.
RIP. songbird. Yours was among the sweetest and purest of voices. We will remember you.
Amen... She was the voice of my childhood in my inspiration to sing.
PURE MAGIC
Give Ms. Reddy ANY song and she made it great ! She was spectacular !
I miss these variety shows. RIP
Helen. Thanks for the beautiful music💞
Absolutely one of her best songs and what a voice! Rest in Peace with our Lord, Helen.
LOL
When I'm feeling blue I listen to this and I always feel better.
Back when we were young and vibrant and the world lay before us.
Singing live, and in total control of a pretty challenging song. She's a great singer!
Yep, one of my fave singers.
I was amazed, even though I knew that she was a fantastic singer.
So true. You barely see this anymore. Brilliant!
Personally, I feel this song was made [written] for her. How can I have missed this all these years?
Never heard a singer hot every note with such perfection on every song performed.and the clarity is magical
Goodnight, fair lady. Thank you for entwining your music within our hearts and souls. Rest, for you have given your gift of song.
This song just relaxes me so much for some reason.
Agee
Rest In Peace, Helen Reddy. Thanks for all the music.
How wonderful to see Bobby Darin and Helen Reddy at the same time!
Good Bye Sweet Angel. You are now where it is always 'Peaceful'
Wow. She sounded almost 100% as in her studio version. Not many singers can do that. Check her out on UA-cam videos from about 8 years ago. She was in her early 70s (she even tells the audience she is 7 years old) and sounded fantastic. RIP Helen Reddy.
My favourite Helen Reddy song. Proud that she was an Aussie.
Always loved this song
A truly stunning voice.
A real class act.
you bet!
That voice! Awesome!!!
See ya Helen. Thanks for all the great music
Helen had such a lovely voice, and the musical arrangements/orchestrations to the songs she sang were so complex and beautiful!
Had Helen still has a wonderful voice saw in concert in 2013 and her voice hadn't change l was amazed on how beautiful her voice sounded for her early seventies
Still holds up. Great song. Great singer. So sorry to hear of her passing.
This is what you get when you combine a great song with the perfect complimentary voice.
Of all her eondergul songs this is my favorite by far. Vastly underappreciated song. So so beautiful and gorgeously orchestrated.
Wonderful....
What a beautiful wonderful woman in song.
talented woman. one my favorites by her.
She will be missed. Her songs have a meaning we can still apply today.
Thanks for posting this. This is my favorite song of hers.
My favorite song of hers as well. She will be remembered😒
She is one of the best singers of All Time. I listen to her songs when i sit on the beach in NJ
Blows me away every time...
God! I remember in High School in the mid 70's all of our rock and roll
friends were in love with Stevie Nicks and Ann and Nancy Wilson from
Heart, and Linda Carter Wonder Woman, and Charlies Angels, and Marcia
Brady, and Barbara Eden, etc..Maybe..But I Thought Helen Reddy, Toni Tenille,
and Karen Carpenter were knockouts, and they sang so great too....But you
couldn't tell your friends..lol...frankm62yearoldwhitekid rockfan
I agree with you, Class of “76” here.
Amazingly talented lady.
Lovely song and singer.
HONOR THIS TALENTED SINGER INTO KENNEDY CENTER.

Boa noite estou a ouvir Helen Reddy e não consigo parar de a ouvir
Lovely voice

One of my favorite songs of hers I saw her in concert when this album came out and have loved her ever cents. Rest in power beautiful lady you are strong
Love this song. The song i listened to after quiting my shitty job...
I just found out that she passed away 10 months after. RIP in Peace Ms. Helen Reddy.
A real classy lady! Timeless music and this is one of my favorites. Would love to meet her. She still can really sing!
Love this tune it`s got a nice kick into the chorus.
Rip(peaceful), a great lady.
Rip angelic Helen xxxx
My fav song..hands down!
Poor Bobby Darin. Left us way too soon at 37. He actually lived 16 years longer than had been diagnosed after contracting yellow fever in his youth.
Well said; how sad he left us so young..
@@alexandermeyer4950 You are correct.
May she (and Bobby Darin) Rest In Peace..✝️
Georgie fame reached 16 in the UK CHART with this classic and this version did well in the billboard chart but just listen to lyrics great
Love
❤❤❤
Nothing like peaceful on a Sunday morning

Of course Helen Reddy had her own show & also Kenny Rogers .
@@tedszweb5268And her friend Mac Davis too, who passed away a few hours after she did at the same age of 78. Helen appeared twice on his show. 🙏
RIP :*(
I heard that song over Biloxi radio in 1986.
RIP
Fueron pocos éxitos pero muy bien
My fav song by her but she sang it a little faster than on the 45.
these TV shows usually have time constraints
This song was better on her album. They have sped it up too much in this version. Oh well! Still good.
My thoughts exactly. The album version was more "peaceful". I liked the sultry twisting of her voice in this piece.
Helen was very pretty at this time in her life. This song, although not written by her, was a good song for her talent. She did this song better than the guy who wrote it, as it seemed to bring out her talent.

But Helen's says:

And it's love brought a tear to my eye
And maybe someday you'll up and say
We had a pretty nice time, oh my."
I guess in the 70s, a woman couldn't have a son while on the run. Would make her look morally corrupt.
Still love this song though. Hardly ever hear it. RIP Helen Reddy.

......💋☺️
When the morning comes You won't drink anymore wine. There's nothing peaceful where you went
A lovely singer and a nice looker. Shame she spoiled that by being a figurehead of women’s lib. RIP Helen.
Awful introduction
Babe.
A proper mans woman.
Beautiful! You will be missed
Was that Bobby darin introducing
Boa noite estou a ouvir Helen Reddy e não consigo parar de a ouvir
