- The Hollies are a British pop/rock group best known for their pioneering and distinctive three-part vocal harmony style. The Hollies became one of the leading British groups of the 1960s (231 weeks on the UK singles charts during the 1960s, the 9th highest of any artist of the decade) and into the mid 1970s. It was formed by Allan Clarke and Graham Nash in 1962 as a Merseybeat-type music group in Manchester, although some of the band members came from towns north of there. Graham Nash left the group in 1968 to form the supergroup Crosby, Stills & Nash.
They enjoyed considerable popularity in many countries (at least 60 singles or EPs and 26 albums charting somewhere in the world, spanning over five decades), although they did not achieve major US chart success until 1966 with "Bus Stop". The Hollies had over 30 charting singles on the UK Singles Chart, and 22 on the Billboard Hot 100, with major hits on both sides of the Atlantic that included "Just One Look", "Look Through Any Window", "I Can't Let Go", "Bus Stop", "Stop Stop Stop", "On a Carousel", "Carrie Anne", "Jennifer Eccles", and later "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother", "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress", and "The Air That I Breathe".
They are one of the few British groups of the early 1960s, along with the Rolling Stones, that have never disbanded and continue to record and perform. In recognition of their achievements, the Hollies were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2010.

First I am listening in 1969
Now nearly 50 years ago
I am listening it 2.5.2024
70 years old
One of the most under-rated songs of the 1960s! A classic!
summer 1969 to be exact
oh, was a big hit here in Mexico, but The Glass Bottle version. kudos if you're talking about The Hollies version,, YES ,seriously underrated
Their harmonies are so beautiful.
I think that I could watch and listen to Allen all day long.
absolute BEST bands to come out of the British Invasion era, The Hollies! YEAH, YEAH.
Folks, you’re looking at one of the absolute BEST bands to come out of the British Invasion era, The Hollies! P.S. Tony Hicks can sure play the heck out of that guitar of his, can’t he?
Hell, Tony Hicks is underrated as a Guitar Player, I Think He was Hot Back in the Day...
Brilliant harmonies ! I went to see them mid 90s Tony hicks not aged 😂 glad I went now ! Alan Clark was still with them
@@robinwanless3496 he could give most guitarist's of the 60s and later a run for their money
P. S. What I meant to say 3 months ago was... Tony Hicks is the Greatest Guitar Player EVER, not just back in THE DAY!!!
Joanne Beauchamps... HELL YEAH, Tony Hicks is the Guitar!!!
This is pop perfection.
*Absolute* pop perfection!
One of the greatest groups of the 60s! Their music is timeless.
Jeanette Smith... l agree
their whole career from 60's till today was never blighted by scandal of any kind.. or animosity.. they entertained and made great music.. pity there wasnt more like "The Hollies"
I agree Jeanette . The best harmonies too and meaningful lyrics.
Потрясающие ребята! Это можно слушать бесконечно.
yes love them glad i seen them twice
The hollies are so great. I love their sound and this song is a favourite.
Undoubtedly, their best song, ever.
Even after 60 years their music 🎶 Is still as fresh as the day it was written.
One of the best bands in the 60s and the 70s i love all their music thank you guys
Much like Badfinger The Hollies are still loved even today. Every bit as much as they were when they first come out.
Great band. I just love them.
I'm an old Beatles fan. When I was a little boy and first heard this song, I was sure I had just heard the Beatles. In fact, the same style! It's Music. That's the Point. This is Love. 💖💖💖
The Hollies' record producer was Ron Richards who was the right hand man of George Martin at Abbey Road, so perhaps the similarity in style is not altogether surprising.
The Hollies also had Buddy Holly/The Everly Brothers as influences so maybe that say so much. Both bands did understand the same from their influencers so they did sound a like.
I thought same about Peter and Gordon - World without Love when i was a kid. Come to find out recently, it was written by Lennon and McCartney.
@@HowardKlein1958weird considering on Wikipedia it says it was written by Geoff Stephens and Tony Macaulay
@@anguineus_virHe is talking about a different group with a different song.
Brilliant have always loved The Hollies every song was fab
The Hollies were awesome. So many happy memories. Thanks Guys.xx
ABSOLUTELY.
I first heard this on the British Top 20 in Germany back in the spring of 1969 as well as saw it performed on BEAT CLUB. Was amazed how The Hollies still sounded the same, even without Graham Nash. And here the group thought Graham Nash's leaving meant the end of The Hollies.
I WAS 3 WHEN THIS WAS RELEASED, AND MY SISTER HAD JUST BEEN BORN. TO THIS DAY, STILL A BIG FAVE OF MINE🤩
Allen Clarke is one of the best vocalist.
Classic.voice.superb.
Manchester’s finest. What harmonies.
Allan Clarke, Graham Nash, Bobby Elliott, Tony Hickis and Bernie Calvert, vocês sempre serão lembrados pelo seu grande carisma e talento. 🎸❤
The wonderful Hollies, I like it a lot! Thanks.
Great harmonies from the guys these Hollies songs really stand the test of time .. always thought they were a top band
I think Tony's guitar playing was overlooked because he made everything he played look so effortless. He's such a gifted player.
AGREED... 100% AGREED!!!
Yup. I watched a documentary on The Hollies yesterday and his guitar playing was pure class. What a great musician.
They were miming on this video though!
@@davidsussex3603 Tony's playing in general, not on Beat Club....
@@jduff59 Yes, he is brilliant and should rate in more world's greatest than he does.
Absolutely astonishing music.. the Hollie’s are the best from England
A superb debut single for the new line up.
Still going Strong The Hollies love thier Songs x😍❤
One of the ABSOLUTE BEST 👍👍👍👍
My favorite of theirs, no wait, I love them all, what an awesome song and group. Thanks guys!!!
100%
Супеееер-это БИТЛС...!!!!
❤😂😅😢
Just outstanding!
one of my favorite groups damn good
First single with new boy Terry Sylvester and a no.3 hit in Britain in early 1969, paving the way for the timeless He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother in the summer of 69.
This song didn't crack the Top 40 in the States, but my radio station still played it for a while. It should have been Top Ten, maybe #1. But there was so much good music that year; it was inevitable that some good songs were overlooked.
Tony Hicks has some of the fastest moving fingers on lead that I've ever seen . Especially on their hit Stop Stop Stop when was playing banjo .
If you watch his right hand, I've never understood how he could play with his middle finger awkwardly extended the way it is. Certainly a unique player.
Love watching Tony play!
Wonderful!! Music from the golden years. Thank you for sharing
'Sorry Suzanne' has more than a little of The Byrds sound about it and I love the infectious melody and well-thought out vocal harmonies.
My favourite Hollies song and I certainly gave my folks copy a good thrashing on the family Dansette in the early '70s.
Melancholy song, but with a lot of balance... it marked an era, when everyone was happy... .beautiful tribute!!!...👏🏻👏🏻😊🤩
Which? "Melancholic"? Why not suicidal?
Совершенная композиция!
Одна из лучших в бите!
Слушаю с 1971 года...
Золотые песни, до слез.... ❤😊
Какая прелесть - песни моей молодости.
what a great time to be alive
My favorite Hollies song.
DAMN THEY WERE GOOD
I love this song. The arrangement and overall vibe sounds very 1963 to '66 Beat Group.
This should have been a number 1 hit. I loved it.
Their first hit with new group member Terry Sylvester and a great one too
I can't make it if you leave me.
I'm sorry Suzanne.
Believe me.
I was wrong.
And I knew I was all along.
Forgive me.
I still love you more than ever.
I'm sorry Suzanne forever
Hurting you.
You know
I never wanted to.
I'm truly sorry, Suzanne.
I could never ever justify.
All the tears I've made you cry.
But I do regret it, My suzanne.
You gotta believe me.
I was looking round for someone new.
What a foolish thing to do.
All the time I knew it.
Heaven knows what made me do it.
Girl.
If you would only take me back again.
Things would be so different then
what I wouldn't give for
one more chance to live for Suzanne
"Sorry Suzanne" by The Hollies
long searched for this super song of my youth
Fantastic!
thanks! l just love this song!
Durch die Hollies hat der Begriff Harmoniegesang eine große Bedeutung erlangt.....
oder auch:
Through the Hollies, the term harmony singing has gained great significance.
Great song by The Hollies and their first hit with newbie Terry Sylvester, formerly of The Escorts and Swinging Blue Jeans.
I believe this is their first hit after Graham Nash left the group. Personally I like Terry Sylvester’s harmonies just as much as Nash. Tony Hicks is creative and masterful! Bobby Elliot, man what a unique drumming style! No group had drums like that at the time.
One of the best bands that came out of the British Invasion and I'm gonna say it. The Hollies and Gerry and the Pacemakers were better than the Beatles. Hands down Allan and Gerry were far better vocalists than any of the Beatles and nobody could play a guitar like Tony. Absolutely Love the Hollies. There music is timeless.
I adore both the Hollies and Gerry and the Pacemakers, beautiful songs and sound. However I can't put them before the Beatles who were unique in terms of inventiveness, excitement and sheer output. It is amazing though that these 3 brilliant groups came out of Merseyside/Lancashire at the same time. Gerry's my favourite singer though. Adorable.
Эту мелодию я в первые услышал еще пионер лагере в 60-х, меня поразила ее мелодичность, у нас такого и близко не было.
Don't even know this song but since it was by the Hollies I knew it would be good.
They still wore matching suits in 1969. Stylished and polished and effortlessly performed!
REO Brothers just gave justice to this beautiful song, amazing....
the REO Guys are awesome!
Same here
Who is brother of REO 1/6?
Me too, need to know who the hollies are...lol....
Noime Badeo sick, can you like say hi to my little bro thanks
One of my mum s favourites
REO brothers brought me here...
Same here... I wanted to compare this original with the REO Brothers cover.
They cover the Reo Brothers, is there any difference?
Same w me,
me too
Same here
А masterpiece! That, and "Bus Stop".
Covered this a few times over the years. I always wound up with the high harmony. Just about on the limit of my range. It could hurt.
Hot tea, honey, lemon ...
Шедевр ! До сих пор, хотя слушал эту песню в 8 классе школы !
Примерно в 1971 году купил гибкую пластинку с этой вещью. С тех пор она постоянно есть в моей фонотеке.
BEST TO THE BEST IN THE STORY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice song, lyrics / vocals/ 🎶 , 🌸🌼💐🌸🌸🌼🌻💐👸, don't remember it, , was to young .
REO Brothers brought me here :) and just wow! they nailed it hahaha
Awoke with this song in my head
Timeless.. Thanks 👍🇳🇿
so genial dieser T.Hicks !
Love this song. Thanks for posting.
Song mého mladí
Thank You, the first Single with Terry . Good bye Graham .
Although Nash would go on to great success with CSNY, Sylvester filled those shoes very well and even stayed with the group while Allan Clarke left in 1971, replaced by Mikael Rickfors. When Clarke returned to the band, and then left a 2nd time, Terry took over as lead for the group.
Tengo una anécdota con esta canción y es que en el año 2012, tenía yo 27 años, estaba en una clase en la universidad, ya no había nada que hacer por lo que mi grupo de amigas y yo nos pusimos a escuchar música de los 90 (nuestra época) y adivinar las canciones y cantantes. El profesor, un señor ya mayor, se reía de nuestras ocurrencias y se le ocurrió decirnos que nos regalaba un punto si le adivinábamos una canción. Comenzó a reproducir este video y yoooo, amante a la música de los 60 y 70, jajaja comencé a cantarla, todo el salón me miró y le dije al profesor SORRY SUZANNE de The Hollies!!! Quiero mi punto!! y pues me lo puso jajaja
Me super encantan,,,,,las canciones de The Hollies 💖💛💙💖💛💙
Super písnička 👍
Brilliant band ❤
❤I love Allan Clarke I would give anything to talk to him ❤ love you loads ❤❤❤❤❤Lorna
My favourite Hollies track
First one without Graham, which proved they could survive and thrive without him, but surprisingly never released in the states.
Love those matching white suits! This was 1969 and most bands were dropping the matching suits but The Hollies still holding onto some style and sophistication!
you think matching clothes are sophisticated? 😵💫
@@Marcel_Audubon Not necessarily and matching clothes can indeed be somewhat weird and funny looking but pulled off as stylishly as The Hollies, I certainly consider it to be sophisticated. And I was pinpointing matching suits. What? You don't find this look and performance to be stylish and sophisticated!?😁
@@Marcel_Audubon I'm not married to the word sophisticated. I can easily replace it with nice looking, stylish, easy on the eye etc. Whatever works for your decor, Marcel!
Mooie compositie. Knappe melodie... mooi arrangement.
Спасибо Вам ребята!!!
A Great Classic
5 times yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Нас семиклассников в октябре 1971 г впервые пригласили на школьный вечер. Эта песня прозвучала первой в исполнении школьного ВИА десятиклассников. Я запомнил эту песню на всю жизнь.
Вот это круто!
The Hollies are Still Memorable!
Memories I was 18 at the time
ИЗУМИТЕЛЬНО,!!!
The guitarist on the right is just so qute and lovable with his endearing body language ?
Good good music
Great guitarist.
Thanks! I love it!
I heard this song around 1970.
When you realise you are in to the same music as your mum, I knew I was born too late!.......
I'd love to see the Hollies 1968 Beat Club performance of "Blowing In The Wind" if you have that. Thanks for sharing these.
Юность .1969 год. Лучшее время. Лучшие песни❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lo mejor d los hollies, lo siento susan, y una botella, Diosssss
А я знаком с этой Сьюзен. Гостевал у нее в доме несколько раз, в 1989 - 1991 годах. Фамилия ее Вудвард. Живет в городе Скелмерсдейл, пригород Ливерпуля. В молодости она была завсегдатаем Каверны в Ливерпуле, где в то время частенько выступали Холлиз. Сами то они из Манчестера, в 70 милях от ливерпуля. Все близко. Была с ними знакома настолько, что они специально для нее эту песню разучили. Вот как мир тесен...
I came here after i heard the version from Reo Brothers.....who els......
Wow!Одна из лучших композиций того периода.Музыка Холлис,вне времени.Эта песня слушается не хуже Битлз.👍💯🎸💓
