From a young age Harry impressed me with his simple, humane voice. And now that I've grown up and listening to this song rendition. Harry doesn't just sing it, he lives it. God bless you Harry Belafonte.
Truly one of the greatest men that have walked this planet. This is the most emotionally delivery that I've heard of this song - like his version of "Try To Remember".
When I was young- I saw this performance I think, because I remember how handsome and beautifully he sang this song. I thought this man has it all, looks, voice and personality - he must be a big star and I was right.. What a great performer.
Happy ninety first Harry.March 1/18.G-d bless you.Thanks for over sixty years of sheer joy and entertainment.I went through life you.Couldn’t think of a better companion.
Such a great man ...such a warm, tender person...who has always been looking/fighting for justice and truly love between all of us...always looking to make mankind more human. One of them with a heart in everything he does . And above all, one who knows to let us feel, the emotions which are enclosed in the melody and the lyrics of a song. Such a nice warm and tender voce too. I 've a few other names : Joni Mitchell(2000), Julio Bernardo Euson (1971),Judy Collins(1984), Mary Fahl (2013), Sara Bareilles(around 2006//2017..89th Academic Awards)
Bows and flows of angel hair Ice cream castles in the air Feather canyons everywhere, I've looked at clouds that way But now they only block the sun They rain and snow on everyone So many things I would have done, but clouds got in my way I've looked at clouds from both sides now From up and down and still somehow It's cloud's illusions I recall I really don't know clouds at all Moons and Junes and ferris wheels The dizzy dancing way you feel As every fairy tale comes real, I've looked at love that way But now it's just another show, you leave 'em laughing when you go And if you care don't let them know, don't give yourself away I've looked at life from both sides now From give and take and still somehow It's love's illusions I recall I really don't know love at all Tears and fears and feeling proud To say "I love you" right out loud Dreams and schemes and circus crowds I've looked life that way Oh but now old friends are acting strange They shake their heads, they tell me that I've changed Well something's lost but something's gained In living every day I've looked at life from both sides now From WIN and LOSE and still somehow It's life's illusions I recall I really don't know life at all
Interesting version. Not my favourite one, but nevertheless interesting. A highly demanded song when you think of all the artists, who performed this tune: Joni Mitchell, Judy Collins (my favourite version), Doris Day, Frank Sinatra, Neil Diamond, Harry Belafonte, Chad Mitchell and John Denver or Leonard Nimoy (!) just to name a few.
Frank Sinatra sang it too fast. Harry Belafonte sings it too slow. It's never a perfect world. (Try to listen to it at 1.25 speed. It will sound better).
From a young age Harry impressed me with his simple, humane voice. And now that I've grown up and listening to this song rendition. Harry doesn't just sing it, he lives it. God bless you Harry Belafonte.
Thank you for your music and everything, the hope and all that you gave us Mr.Belafonte. . We willl try and follow
you...
Truly moving interpretation of a classic song. Rest in Peace, Mr. Belafonte.

First time hearing H.B. sing this song. Love it. A good Valentine's Day song😘
Wonderful rendition! ❤️ God bless!
Lovey version of this song, I’m sure Joni Mitchell would be most pleased.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Belafonte and Nat King Cole allways give us exceptional vocal performances.
Great Song and singer❤️🌹🍀

Not a bad one to go down under with....
Just beautiful.
Indescribable feeling and something indescribable
Bothe he and this song is beautiful Lovely 🦋
MARVELOUS SONG! BOTH SIDES NOW!
For en stemme!! Helt fantastisk!!
Beautiful human. R.I.P.
❤ thanks
Hear expression...What a melodic recital! Maybe the best version - for meaning and significance.
Nathalie Cole's is emotionally great as well.
Brilliant love this version 🤗❤
I'm glad you mentioned Natalie Cole because her version is my favorite of them all.
Wonderful!
To me the most moving version of both sides now
I agree, a fantastic version....
This is nice, but check out Bing Crosby’s version
R.i.P.😪
Prachtig
so good
I love you Harry 🌹
Nice, Some parts give me chills. Other times I wonder why he’s giving us so much breath.
The most original arrangement of this song.
RIP Mr. Belafonté 🙏🌠
Bows and flows of angel hair
Ice cream castles in the air
Feather canyons everywhere, I've looked at clouds that way
But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done, but clouds got in my way
I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down and still somehow
It's cloud's illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all
Moons and Junes and ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way you feel
As every fairy tale comes real, I've looked at love that way
But now it's just another show, you leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you care don't let them know, don't give yourself away
I've looked at life from both sides now
From give and take and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all
Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say "I love you" right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked life that way
Oh but now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they tell me that I've changed
Well something's lost but something's gained
In living every day
I've looked at life from both sides now
From WIN and LOSE and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all
Genius
Rest in Peace sir
'Buck and the Preacher' great acting job.
Space 1999?
he understud the meaning of feels
I wonder how the 25 year old Joni reacted and felt when Belafonte, who was already a singer of renown, picked up her then new song.
Sinatra too.
I love this song do you have it by Frank Sinatra "Both sides Now'
No, unfortunately

I’m with you Gold. So many great versions, but Judy Collins’ is definitive.
Frank Sinatra sang it too fast.
Harry Belafonte sings it too slow.
It's never a perfect world.
(Try to listen to it at 1.25 speed. It will sound better).
It's perfect the way it is from the first note till the last. The speed is perfect too. What a masterpiece. Wish I heard it 30 years before.
Not very good, love his own music.
Very Very Moving. You can feel his soul.
😢 RIP Mr. Belafonte
