You're so right Maz. I was 18 when I first heard this song; living in a tiny bedsit in London. 36 yrs later , the words DO mean so much more. A lot of great times coupled with a lot of pain.
30 - 40 secs. Seeing the tears of others sets me off. I’m there in the moment. This is a great song and Colin has always had that enviable, angelic voice. As a musician the greatest connection you’ll ever make is when someone cries when they hear you sing. You couldn’t ask for more than that.
I almost passed away once and how odd that this was the song I wanted for my final procession. It still haunts me at an older age. Such a profound and beautiful memory of my youth. Words can never Express my love and emotions for this.
Two years after this recording, I located Colin Blunstone playing in a dingy little nightclub in Worcester Park and drove there to see him. Always thought he was Britain's most underrated singer. I'd seen The Zombies once in the 1960's and he'd just met up with Rod Argent again and they'd started the band again when I saw them. I'd wondered what had happened to them. From that little nightclub in 2002 they're now doing world tours. Wonderful band and singer.
It is very difficult not to escape a tear when listening to this nostalgic but beautiful song sung with much feeling by this great artist, really beautiful.-
Classic song, every word cuts deep in the heart...true are the words as we get older we get wiser...so thankful we are lucky enough to hear and enjoy this song...
Such a haunting song. I was a young man when I fell in love with Alan Parsons Project and this song in particular. I'm now 57 and feel the lyrics are now even more relevant.
Oh yes I am right there with you. Most of my friends were not interested in this music. I always thought what are they thinking. Beauty and art should be observed. But most people are more interested in gossip and train wrecks. Life is for the living. Don't waste it. Listen and learn from beauty not ugliness.
What western movie used Pink Floyd's Time? I know that APP worked on the album and I just can't remember. I know the cowboy is riding into town with clocks ticking and chiming. Gosh, what the mind does when aging. Thanks in advance for helping me.
Una canción, un poema que llega al alma. Una canción que provoca un nudo en la garganta. Diferentes cantantes la han interpretado, pero nadie imprime ese sentimiento, esa claridad como Colin Blunstone. La chica no puede contener las lágrimas..... Solo los verdaderos artistas logran ese efecto.
I love this song so much. It means so much to me, I cry each time I hear it. I have someone who will always be in my heart and will always be a friend of mine, thank you so much for posting this on UA-cam. I sadly miss the haunting saxophone played on a previous recording, but the electric guitar does a wonderful job.
When a perfect song meets the perfect voice to sing it. Or when a perfect voice meets the perfect song to sing. It rarely happens, but when it does you have this.
According to a recent documentary this was his favourite song and Eric Woolfson (the writer of the Alan Parsons project music) give him a few days to practise, normally they just said here it is Colin sing it now and he frequently did just one take. Brilliant singer and a song writer as well.
My best friend from High School always asked that this be played at his funeral. Even as a teen he said he would die when he was 30. He was taken from us when he was 31. A hauntingly personal song.
CB has such a breathy and beautiful resonance to his voice, the soft tonal quality and clarity is truly otherworldy and this most gorgeous song brings out and compliments his style so much and so well! All round simply beautiful and profound! Xxx.
Memories of the 70' & 80's in the restaurants I worked in with so many friends. We had such great times. All gone now but the memories bring me happiness.
Eric Woolfson was such a underrated genius, who wrote dozens of brilliant songs and haunting instrumentals. He was so quiet guy and remained out of light. . Everybody knows Alan Parsons who was smart leader of his Project but the brain and author of the band was still Woolfson.
Zo kun je zien wat muziek met iemand kan doen....maarja dan hebben we het natuurlijk wel over iemand met een geweldige stem die je raakt...thanks Colin....
Since seeing Colin and Rod perform as the Zombies here in my little city 2 1/2 years ago, I simply cannot get enough! 50 years and still going strong! Such a beautiful voice, amazing talent!
Back in 2006 i was on an Alan Parsons Project kick. I remember coming across this song for the first time and said who the hell is the vocalist??? the answer Colin Blunstone (holy shit) the singer for The Zombies. I wish Colin had more guest spots on the Alan Parsons albums.
I am knocking on the door of 70......this song gets you thinking about life....
Fabulous song, beautiful lyrics and in Colin Blunstone the perfect voice for this song. So emotional.
This has to be one of the most beautiful emotionally charged songs ever written.
It’s bought me to tears as I recall when I listened to this as a very sad young woman, in the early1980’s….. still sad at times, but I survived.
Beautiful vocals, Colin has a fragility, vulnerable quality which is unusual in male singers. Outstanding song by Eric Woolfson.
My favourite song of all time.
Me too
I hope that this magical performance catch the attention of the next generation. Best song ever !
Colin Blunstone is one of those rare performers, everything he has done has been classic.
Indeed 💜
I'm now 61 years old and the song is becoming more relevant each year.
Of course im 64 their passing away songs
Their sad
Collin's voice is enchanting.
This piece was, is & will stay in the hearts & souls of mankind.
Thank you Alan Parson's Project...
It will be my funeral song ... a thank you for all the people I dearly loved
ber calnip this and Comfortably Numb will be mine.
Such a haunting song. I cried at 25 listening to it, and now at 52 it means so so much more...
I'm 64 and am waiting for the Zombies tour dates to be announced. thanks for your comments and what can I say? they don't make em like this any more.
You're so right Maz. I was 18 when I first heard this song; living in a tiny bedsit in London. 36 yrs later , the words DO mean so much more. A lot of great times coupled with a lot of pain.
I'm 52. And I love tis song since I Was 13.
You need listen to Edward Reekers sing this song, you will cry deep
I am 58 and this song still evokes so many emotions it's hard to describe.
As I approach my 70th year, I share the tears of the Hostess...
The older I get, the better this gets...
Watching Colin sing “She’s Not There” with The Zombies; I thought he was the coolest ever …watching this at 67 brings tears…
30 - 40 secs. Seeing the tears of others sets me off. I’m there in the moment. This is a great song and Colin has always had that enviable, angelic voice. As a musician the greatest connection you’ll ever make is when someone cries when they hear you sing. You couldn’t ask for more than that.
People cry when I sing too. They beg me to stop. I don't think it's the same thing tho.
Still brings tears, to my eyes, like it did. When i was 30, now i am 72. As the same effect
I almost passed away once and how odd that this was the song I wanted for my final procession. It still haunts me at an older age. Such a profound and beautiful memory of my youth. Words can never Express my love and emotions for this.
I know exactly what you mean. 💜😪💔
@@peterturley1331 thank you for the kind feedback.
I’m with you my friend.
Great words................

Song for my funeral back to back with in my life.
always one of my favourite songs by the brilliant Colin Blunstone
speechless ! the woman at the beginning sums it up for me ! bittersweet. sad. true.
Oh this sublime performance ~ watching the faces of so many in the audience who know that their own death is approaching.
Everyone is scares shit
Stupit
I adore her for crying
Was it Anne Diamond?
I really would love this song to be played at my funeral. I'm sure it would soothe any sorry feeling among the attenders!
It is very difficult not to escape a tear when listening to this nostalgic but beautiful song sung with much feeling by this great artist, really beautiful.-
Music makes the world a much better place,..period!❤🎶👍
For whom living with this song for years will understand the meaning of it, as final curtain fall before our eyes.
Classic song, every word cuts deep in the heart...true are the words as we get older we get wiser...so thankful we are lucky enough to hear and enjoy this song...
this is a song of LIFE... touched me.. i must be wise when i get old... so i can remember a friend of mine.. even just one of them.
This song hit me quite hard too when I first got the album, Eye In The Sky album (1982). It has meaning and can be cathartic.
Such a haunting song. I was a young man when I fell in love with Alan Parsons Project and this song in particular. I'm now 57 and feel the lyrics are now even more relevant.
ditto i'm 57 now too.
Oh yes I am right there with you. Most of my friends were not interested in this music. I always thought what are they thinking. Beauty and art should be observed. But most people are more interested in gossip and train wrecks. Life is for the living. Don't waste it. Listen and learn from beauty not ugliness.
me too 57 lets sing it together lol
What western movie used Pink Floyd's Time? I know that APP worked on the album and I just can't remember. I know the cowboy is riding into town with clocks ticking and chiming. Gosh, what the mind does when aging. Thanks in advance for helping me.
I got to meet Colin. Spoke with him. Such an honor Really nice guy.
Too right he is. A real gentleman.
Alan Parsons - genius. Like it since i've heard it in early 80s when i was young and silly
One my favourite songs of all time!!!
This song makes me cry too, he has such command and delivery! Pure emotion! Love this guy!
Una canción, un poema que llega al alma. Una canción que provoca un nudo en la garganta. Diferentes cantantes la han interpretado, pero nadie imprime ese sentimiento, esa claridad como Colin Blunstone. La chica no puede contener las lágrimas.....
Solo los verdaderos artistas logran ese efecto.
tiene un tono de voz celestial...
Nadie como el para interpretarla.
Esta canción es solo para el.
🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶♥️
This is the perfect song for this legendary Singer when he leaves us.
Its impossible not to cry when you hear this
I love this song so much. It means so much to me, I cry each time I hear it. I have someone who will always be in my heart and will always be a friend of mine, thank you so much for posting this on UA-cam. I sadly miss the haunting saxophone played on a previous recording, but the electric guitar does a wonderful job.
This song is amazing Colin you are a legend.
it is touching to see dana winner was crying.... she was so beautiful
When a perfect song meets the perfect voice to sing it. Or when a perfect voice meets the perfect song to sing.

Always admired everything Colin did, great performer

Brilliant song by mr blunstone and Alan parson
Never heard this before. Colin Blunstone is still glorious.
My best friend from High School always asked that this be played at his funeral. Even as a teen he said he would die when he was 30. He was taken from us when he was 31. A hauntingly personal song.
So sorry to hear the sad news of your friend. What a great song to have as a tribute to him
What a voice ,beautiful
Efectivamente, esta canción cuando la interpreta Colin Blunstone derrocha sentimiento, llega al corazón y se queda allí!
Lo has dicho perfectamente, en lo personal, se me hace un nudo en la garganta cada vez que la escucho.
Exacto, me gusta un poco más con David paton, pero este vocalista hace que la canción sea un poco más sad con su significado! :'(
I was a teenager when this came out and I still think it's a great one. And Colin Blunstone nails it here!
The best version and will ever be 👍
Thanks Colin, Im old, hope to be wize..
The great Colin Blunstone.
From one Perry to another, yep. Amen.
one of thee most beautiful bittersweet songs EVER ! what a SOUL that guy has !!!
Monteiro
CB has such a breathy and beautiful resonance to his voice, the soft tonal quality and clarity is truly otherworldy and this most gorgeous song brings out and compliments his style so much and so well! All round simply beautiful and profound! Xxx.

Memories of the 70' & 80's in the restaurants I worked in with so many friends. We had such great times. All gone now but the memories bring me happiness.
I MISS THE FINAL WITH DE GLORIUS SAXOFON.
This song it a requiem of the ending life.
No, the song is really that insanely emotional. And Colin Blunstone is a-maz-ing.
i'm just old...
Eric Woolfson was such a underrated genius, who wrote dozens of brilliant songs and haunting instrumentals. He was so quiet guy and remained out of light. . Everybody knows Alan Parsons who was smart leader of his Project but the brain and author of the band was still Woolfson.
yes they complimented one another ! and this guy is awesome as well...
such a moving performance of a brilliant piece of songwriting. !
ESTA ES SIN DUDA ALGUNA UNA PROFUNDISISIMA Y DULCE CANCIÓN E INTERPRETADA POR ESTE EXCELENTE POETA... SENCILLAMENTE HERMOSO TEMA
Unforgettable.
God this song touches something deep inside. The guitar at end jars though I allways stop it when Colin finishes.
I watched with tears in my eyes,too...
Such a Legend
beautiful song, extraordinary singer
Zo kun je zien wat muziek met iemand kan doen....maarja dan hebben we het natuurlijk wel over iemand met een geweldige stem die je raakt...thanks Colin....

한국영화 "비열한거리" OST로 사용된 2007년 부터 쭉 듣고 있는 음악. 현재 37세 이지만 들을때마다 슬픈 음악입니다
I love that song and its message.
