The Browns are thankful for this song. After 53 years, it is still selling world wide & being enjoyed by not only our many fans, but now our children & grandchildren.Thanks everyone for the nice comments you have made. (Maxine Brown)
Unfortunately no one responded to you Maxine while you were still with us, but may you Rest In Peace. This song will always be in our hearts, just like you are still.
I loved this song when I was a young boy. So thankful UA-cam gives is an opportunity to see the performers in their prime. God Bless You, your sister and the real Jimmy Brown.
@@natividadrodriguezjr9425 I met Jim Ed when I was very pregnant with my almost 22 year old son! I told him that I'd loved him for as long as I could remember❤ Most memorable kiss🤗🤗🤗 on the cheek🎵💙🎶❤🎵
@@julienielsen3746 one hour goes by in 60 seconds. If your 90, it still goes by 60 seconds in an hour. I know what you meant. It seems to. I apologize, I had to be picky.
This song reminds me of my late husband. He was raised Christian but he fell away. I just.pray that he found Jesus again before he died. He had been a very good kind man until he lost his way.
I'm in the same age group and we had the best music from the 50s all the way up till the 70s. None of it will ever go out of style. I go out dancing all the time and some groups do a little doo-wop, some do rock 'n'roll, some do the blues, some to Motown and all of us know all the words. We're so lucky to have UA-cam!
I am 44 years old and listended to this since a little girl...my dad would play guitar and I would sing. To this day I cry every time I hear this song.
@@sweetsunnyvibes You must be Canadian yourself...which is why you didn't write it, "your" Canadian - you used the proper, "you're". If you are not Canadian...I'd have something different to say then.
A Mari, of course, and I would have to agree, he had the calmest and smoothest voice, and there is a word for his demeanor, but I just can't think of it at the present.
This song was popular when I was in High school, I loved it then, I still love it now. I was so lucky to have that kind of influence during my youth. Makes me wonder what kind of influences are happening to youth now. It sure has become different. Hopefully youth will discover this kind of music.
When I was a little girl in the 60's my parents would put "old" country music on the record player. My life has been enriched because of talent like the Three Bells. I love this song as well as The Little Lamplighter. Now, it's 2011 and because of today's technology I can revisit my childhood and enjoy treasures like this.
I learned of The Browns from the Sopranos series. This song was played in more than one episode. They sound so amazing! Jim Ed Brown's range is mesmerizing and this song is truly one of my favorites!
@@wa9kzy326 You can hear the original by Edith Piaf. It is French and called Les Trois Cloche. If you can understand French you'll notice the lyrics are very different reflecting a Roman Catholic influence.
Although Jim Ed Brown is with the Master now I for one will never forget that angelic voice of his that I remember listening to since I was a child... As you listen to the lyrics of this song you can't help but realize it has come full circle for "Little Jimmy Brown"... Your battle is over here on earth but what a wonderful song your singing in "Heavens Choir"... God Bless Always **Gail**
A soul winged its way to heaven. ...R.I.P. my Angel Ken this was one of your favorite songs we would sing it as we were trucking along. Love and miss you.
this is one of my mom's favorite songs. it came out about the same time that they sent my uncle (her brother) to the missions in africa. my mom was a tough lady. i am the oldest of eight and she ruled the roost. when she turned 86 she went through with open heart surgery, a quad bypass with an aortic valve replacement. she lives on her own in a retirement apartment and still drives her own car. tough alright but play this song and she turns to mush.
And the little congregation, prayed for guidance from above; lead us not into temptation, may his soul find find the salvation of thy great eternal love.
HOOSIER PUT HIS FINGER ON IT, ITS ABOUT TALENT, MUSICIANSHIP AND A GOOD SONG, THIS ANOTHER ONE FROM THE ''WAR-YEARS'' WHEN MUSICIANS PLAYED THE MUSIC, AND SINGERS SANG THE SONG, WITHOUT ALL THE 'SYNTHETIC-NOISE'' PRESENTLY SCOURING THE AIR-WAVES IN BRITAIN, AMERICA, EVERY CITY YOU VISIT, HAS AN M.O.R. STATION, IN LAS VEGAS FOR EXAMPLE WHERE THIS ''MUSIC'' CAN BE HEARD
Greetings Brian! I realize this may be a long-shot, but when i saw your name I just have to ask, Are you any relation to actor Jon Walmsley? Happy Holidays : )
Connie passed away. Only Maxine is left. I am weeping with joy. Loved hearing this song on my little transistor radio when I was only 12/ God Bless the Brown Family, friends an fans. She died yesterday, proceeded by her brother. The Browns. Much love.From a rock and roller.
my uncle left for the african missions around the time this song came out. every time my mom heard it she would cry. not the sobbing kind but the quiet little tear down her cheek. i bought the lp that the song was on she would put it on the record player and have her quiet little cry.
Jim Ed is the best! I fell for him the first time I saw him at Ernest Tubb's Midnight Jamboree at his Record Store in Nashville. I saw him at the Grand Ol' Opry and in a lot of concerts since then, and I still think he was one of the very best. R.I.P., Jim Ed Brown. I'll always love you and your music.
I was born and raised in a small town in Kentucky. I didn't listen to much music on the radio, but one evening I happened upon this song. It brought tear's to my eye's. I'm now nearly 70 yr's old and it still tear's me up. One of the best song's ever.
I feel this is the best version of this beautiful song. The rich harmonies are all sung with each vocalist working with the others & not attempting to overpower them, and the solo sections are delivered with passion & perfect pitch by a voice sent from above
stumbled across this song almost 4 years ago and it gave me so much comfort and peace during my heart surgery. I always wanted to meet this group, but I never did. Rest in peace Mr. Brown for you will never know how much you have helped others.
Cette chanson « « Les trois cloches » » fut d’abord créée et interprétée en France 🇫🇷 en français, par la chanteuse Edith Piaf et les Compagnons de la Chanson.-Viviane. (28 Février 2020)
Lyrics: The Three Bells There's a village hidden deep in the valley, Among the pine trees half forlorn. And there on a sunny morning, Little Jimmy Brown was born. All the chapel bells were ringing, In the little valley town, And the songs that they were singing, Was for baby Jimmy Brown. And the little congregation, Prayed for guidance from above, Lead us not into temptation, Bless this hour of meditation, Guide him with eternal love. There's a village hidden deep in the valley, beneath the mountains high above. And there twenty years thereafter, Jimmy was to meet his love. All the chapel bells were ringing, 'Twas a great day in his life. For the songs that they were singing, Was for Jimmy and his wife. And the little congregation, Prayed for guidance from above. Lead us not into temptation, Bless oh Lord this celebration, May their lives be filled with love. From the village hidden deep in the valley, One rainy morning dark and grey. A soul winged its way to Heaven, Jimmy Brown had passed away. Just a lonely bell was ringing, In the little valley town. 'Twas fair well that it was singing, To our good old Jimmy Brown. And the little congregation, Prayed for guidance from above, Lead us not into temptation, May his soul find true salvation, of Thy great eternal love.
Tantheea Mcmahan Thanks for writing the lyrics, I remember this song on the radio when I was 10 years old. I loved it then and still do, glad I came across it.
It was a sweeter world, filled with sweeter music, when this sweet song first appeared in my life. My heart longs for those days💔 and I cannot wait to wing my way to Heaven. I am 70 years old now, so it shouldn't be much longer.....
A great guy, a silver-toned voice, a wonderful career in so many ways. So sad to hear of his passing, but trust he is in a god place! Blessings to you, Jim Ed.
I always loved that song; then I found out some years ago that it was the #1 song on the date, month, and year that I was born....now, I love it even more! 😍 I have my very own Birthday Song!

While another Brown has winged her way to Heaven, she and her brother left us with this song of strong community and faith. We need to reignite the flame of Love and Faith in our communites and all of us pray for guidance from above, especially with upcoming elections.

Let the Bells of the little congregation ring celebrating life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness all over America. May God's love reign down and heal our land.
I love the little look on his face as the applause opens up, like... "Damn! We made it to the Opry!" Very few get there, and when they do, they most certainly deserve the praise. Unless, of course, you were Elvis, but that is a story I am sure the folks over at the opry wished never happened.
I listen to this song daily (along with MANY others by The Browns) and it always brings a tear to my eye. The Browns music is timeless (and Jim Ed's)..My wish is that this kind of music would make a comeback as it is MUCH better than what we have today!! Thanks for posting and thanks to The Browns for making the music.
" If you really listen to the lyrics its about the cycle of life and having a full one:) " So,, what is it about if you do not "really listen o the lyrics?"
The original song from Edith Piaf "les trois cloches" is my favorite song ever, always make me cry, so I was a bit afraid to hear another version in English but I enjoy this one, that's different in the nicest way possible. Bravo Jim !

Rest in peace Jimmy Brown you were born and all the Chapel Bells were Ringing . Now your soul has winged its way to heaven. Now there is just One Bell Ringing. God Bless
God ! Guys, you deserve the biggest applause!!! And many many thanks for your songs, your voices and our memories so beatifully weaven with music like yours. Love.
My mother played this song for me when I was a very little girl. It was one of her very favorite songs. Over 50 years have past since then and so has my dear mother but this song is still a true blessing for me.
I HAVE LOVE THIS SONG AND THE BROWNS SINCE THE SONG FIRST CAME OUT. IT IS NOT ABOUT MOVING AROUND AND SHOUTING, IT IS ABOUT TALANT AND WONDRFUL VOICES. HOPEFULLY MUSIC WILL RETURN TO TALANT,NOT SCREAMING,CURSING AND DEGRADING WOMEN THAT SO MUCH A PART OF TODAYS RAP.....
This song is timeless I think even the kids today would like it if you played it for them. It was nice reading all the comments. All of our hearts were touched by this song. It makes you want to go back to those simpler times when there was still some innocence left in us. Before 71 years of living took it all away. God bless Little Jimmy Brown
It's true this song hits home. I'm 74 now and my my life has gone so fast I remember when I couldn't wait to be 21.😢

@@wa9kzy326 You can hear the original by Edith Piaf. It is French and called Les Trois Cloche. If you can understand French you'll notice the lyrics are very different reflecting a Roman Catholic influence.
Words alone cannot express my gratitude for this information. My French is rusty but I'll polish it up for this piece.
So true. Beethoven's Ninth has nothing on this.

Lyrics: The Three Bells
There's a village hidden deep in the valley,
Among the pine trees half forlorn.
And there on a sunny morning,
Little Jimmy Brown was born.
All the chapel bells were ringing,
In the little valley town,
And the songs that they were singing,
Was for baby Jimmy Brown.
And the little congregation,
Prayed for guidance from above,
Lead us not into temptation,
Bless this hour of meditation,
Guide him with eternal love.
There's a village hidden deep in the valley,
beneath the mountains high above.
And there twenty years thereafter,
Jimmy was to meet his love.
All the chapel bells were ringing,
'Twas a great day in his life.
For the songs that they were singing,
Was for Jimmy and his wife.
And the little congregation,
Prayed for guidance from above.
Lead us not into temptation,
Bless oh Lord this celebration,
May their lives be filled with love.
From the village hidden deep in the valley,
One rainy morning dark and grey.
A soul winged its way to Heaven,
Jimmy Brown had passed away.
Just a lonely bell was ringing,
In the little valley town.
'Twas fair well that it was singing,
To our good old Jimmy Brown.
And the little congregation,
Prayed for guidance from above,
Lead us not into temptation,
May his soul find true salvation,
of Thy great eternal love.

This is real country music sung with meaning and feeling. Thank you Browns.
Hello how are you doing..?
I loved this song every since I heard it! 😊👍👍🙏😇
The Sopranos brought me here.... Twice.
No, just one of the best ever recorded period. And in case you people havent figured it out yet, you have Genre'd music to death.
I'm a guy who's been around and I admit that this song brings me near to tears by the end of it.....I remember listening to it as a kid....
It was a sweeter world, filled with sweeter music, when this sweet song first appeared in my life. My heart longs for those days💔 and I cannot wait to wing my way to Heaven. I am 70 years old now, so it shouldn't be much longer.....
This song came out in the summer of 1959. I was 17 years old . Am now 82 and still love it. Thanks Jim Ed, Maxine and Bonnie.
Me too, dear; me too
I often wondered how many times the Brown's performed this song, and if they tired of it?
A great guy, a silver-toned voice, a wonderful career in so many ways. So sad to hear of his passing, but trust he is in a god place! Blessings to you, Jim Ed.
Agreed. Like the last line in the song says: "may his soul find its salvation of thy great eternal love!"

I love the little look on his face as the applause opens up, like... "Damn! We made it to the Opry!" Very few get there, and when they do, they most certainly deserve the praise. Unless, of course, you were Elvis, but that is a story I am sure the folks over at the opry wished never happened.
Very Pure Music....Unlike the Garbage of today....
"The Three Bells", adapted from the French song "Les trois cloches" by Jean Villard Gilles and Marc Herrand
Thanks for that. I think Edith Piaf sang "Les Trois cloches".

One of my favorite songs growing. Reminds me of another awesome song back then "The Little Brown Church in the Wildwood"). Miss those days so much.
Considering the music, the lyrics, and the great performance, one of the best of it's genre ever recorded.
David, this definitely is on the list of "National Anthems"! Thanks. Very touching to hear and digest the words.
RIP Bonnie ad Jim Ed Brown
I listen to this song daily (along with MANY others by The Browns) and it always brings a tear to my eye. The Browns music is timeless (and Jim Ed's)..My wish is that this kind of music would make a comeback as it is MUCH better than what we have today!! Thanks for posting and thanks to The Browns for making the music.
My Grandma died on Monday. I'm going to really miss her. She loved this song. I hope I see her again someday.
I'm sorry for your loss 🥺
@@miikkamurray7888 thank you :-( the funeral is today
This song makes me happy, If you really listen to the lyrics its about the cycle of life and having a full one:)
Think you got it quite right, my friend.
" If you really listen to the lyrics its about the cycle of life and having a full one:)
"
So,, what is it about if you do not "really listen o the lyrics?"
I'll be 30 next year, my older co worker told me about this :)
The original song from Edith Piaf "les trois cloches" is my favorite song ever, always make me cry, so I was a bit afraid to hear another version in English but I enjoy this one, that's different in the nicest way possible. Bravo Jim !
The Three Bells
The Browns
There's a village hidden deep in the valley
Among the pine trees half forlorn
And there on a Sunny morning
Little Jimmy Brown was born
All the chapel bells were ringing
In the little valley town
And the song that they were singing
Was for baby Jimmy Brown
Then the little congregation
Prayed for guidance from above
"Lead us not into temptation
Bless this hour of meditation
Guide him with eternal love"
There's a village hidden deep in the valley
Beneath the mountains high above
And there, twenty years thereafter
Jimmy was to meet his love
All the chapel bells were ringing
Was a great day in his life
'Cause the song that they were singing
Was for Jimmy and his wife
Then the little congregation
Prayed for guidance from above
"Lead us not into temptation
Bless oh Lord, this celebration
May their lives be filled with love"
From the village hidden deep in the valley
One rainy morning dark and gray
A soul winged its way to heaven
Jimmy Brown had passed away
Just a lonely bell was ringing
In the little valley town
'Twas farewell that it was singing
To our good old Jimmy Brown
And the little congregation
Prayed for guidance from above
"Lead us not into temptation
May his soul find the salvation
Of thy great eternal love"
The song dates from 1946 when Edith Piaf first sang it.
Rest in peace Jimmy Brown you were born and all the Chapel Bells were Ringing . Now your soul has winged its way to heaven. Now there is just One Bell Ringing. God Bless
God ! Guys, you deserve the biggest applause!!! And many many thanks for your songs, your voices and our memories so beatifully weaven with music like yours. Love.
Hello how are you doing…? Okay
My mother played this song for me when I was a very little girl. It was one of her very favorite songs. Over 50 years have past since then and so has my dear mother but this song is still a true blessing for me.
My husband uncle's name was jimmy brown. Saddest funeral I've ever been to. They played this song
They're not a picnic to start with,Tina and that was brutal,but perfect..............
A classic! Beautiful melody!
I remember this from my teenage years and I am now nearly 75 years old. The song is a lot older than I am.

I grew up with this song... God Bless Jim Ed Brown
I HAVE LOVE THIS SONG AND THE BROWNS SINCE THE SONG FIRST CAME OUT. IT IS NOT ABOUT MOVING AROUND AND SHOUTING, IT IS ABOUT TALANT AND WONDRFUL VOICES. HOPEFULLY MUSIC WILL RETURN TO TALANT,NOT SCREAMING,CURSING AND DEGRADING WOMEN THAT SO MUCH A PART OF TODAYS RAP.....
RIP Jim. You will be missed. Loved your music.
I'm here from The Devil All The Time.
Тоже услышал в фильме кусочек этой песенки и зацепило)
Me too! What a great movie.
Me too bro!
Yess
Sopranos. Lol
This song is timeless I think even the kids today would like it if you played it for them. It was nice reading all the comments. All of our hearts were touched by this song. It makes you want to go back to those simpler times when there was still some innocence left in us. Before 71 years of living took it all away.
God bless Little Jimmy Brown
Jim Ed was certainly a good looking man. I love their music.
Hello how are you doing…?
Literally brings tears to my eyes for excellence and times gone by.
