Will we ever learn.. this song is from the 70’s and is about us ruining the world… here we are some 50’years later and still haven’t learnt anything…😢😢
Iwas only 1 year old when he release the song. I took 40 years to know to ( God bless LM Radio Maputo, the play it a lot), sonce the is my anthem.... for worst and good times..... Go Down by river!!!!🇲🇿
Du singst ja HEUTE noch genauso gut wie DAMALS...Ich liebe deine Lieder DANKE das es dich gibt....u. ab und zu trösten deine Lieder auch mal 🙂🙂❤❤❤👍👍👍👌👌👌
This is the real original serious song about saving the environment, it has with sad lyrics and heroic tunes 。 While the remix versions sung by Chinese/Taiwanese Singer Cindy Wong and Korean dance group Oh my girl had happy lyrics and upbeat tunes.
City life was gettin' us down So we spent the weekend out of town Pitched the tent on the patch of ground Down by the river Lit a fire and drank some wine You put your jeans on the top of mine Said, come in the water's fine Down by the river Down by the river Down by the river Said, come in the water's fine Down by the river Didn't feel too good all night So we took a walk in the morning light Came across the strangest sight Down by the river Silver fish lay on its side It was washed up by the early tide I wonder how it died Down by the river Down by the river Down by the river Silver fish lay on its side Down by the river Doctor put us both to bed He dosed us up and he shook his head Only foolish people go, he said Down by the river Why do willows weep, said he Because they're dying gradually From the waste, from the factories Down by the river Down by the river Down by the river Why do willows weep, said he Down by the river In time, the river banks will die The reeds will wilt and the ducks won't fly There'll be a tear in the otter's eye Down by the river The banks will soon be black and dead And where the otter raised his head Will be a clean white stone instead Down by the river Down by the river Down by the river Will be a clean white stone instead Down by the river
Albert Hammond is almost a spitting image of Kiril "Kirka" Babitzin, who made this song in Finnish as "Varrella virran". It is an almost verbatim translation of the original.
I heard the remake in Finland and my friend's family who were my hosts couldn't understand my jumbled Finnish mishmash expressing that I knew that song... I am glad I was there when the Internet was vast and fast or I would've been taken to a hospital. :P
Anyone know the cord he is making I believe it’s a G sharp instead of putting a capo on the first fret and doing a G he’s doing a thumb over type of G sharp

@@alanstrom2221 i think he was too clean for the 70's....he wasn't a bad boy. But how he and his powerful music have endured through the decades and he is still entertaining us and educating us 5 decades on. Albert Hammond is in a class of his own. Thankyou Albert. ❤
I only first heard of this song due to someone pointing out it has the same melody as two Asian pop songs: - "Listen to my Word (A-ing)", a Korean song performed by girl group Papaya in 2000 and by girl group Oh My Girl in 2016: ua-cam.com/video/dhAQ29v1xD0/v-deo.html - "愛你", a Mandarin Chinese song performed by Taiwanese singer Cyndi Wang(王心凌) in 2004: ua-cam.com/video/sOp9yAG5dZM/v-deo.html

I'm 60 now and I think I was 12 when this came out. I've always loved this song. What a GREAT performance here in this video. Wow!
Lovely song reminds me of being a child in willich Germany in the 70s
Albert Hammond Legend,One of the greatest artists and singer songwriters ever,what a great performance of a great song
what makes this song great: the enormous contrast between the "happy summer love all easy" tune and the very meaningful and concerned lyrics...
Song written in the Seventies..... and sadly enough its still actual Nowadays....
Yey 🤗
I want to dance to this song about death and sickness
Amazing singer songwriter
Will we ever learn.. this song is from the 70’s and is about us ruining the world… here we are some 50’years later and still haven’t learnt anything…😢😢
Albert, thanks for your Music.
A Sad song about the eventual Pollution of our Rivers and Streams...Excellent song.
betul la
This is music. Simply and clear with a message. Tq. Albert
Wahnsinn der ist immer noch einer der Besten
Aku datang sini, sebab nak tahu, betul ke sama macam lagu 'SEMANGAT YANG HILANG' ( XPDC)
Samalah kita bro. Memang ada persamaan, tapi taklah 100 peratus. Namun persamaan melodi memang jelas ada disitu.
Sama
tulah kan.

The lyric n the music are just too good to be true. Truly amazing indeed.
All I need is an Albert Hammond in my life

Papaya was the first to remix this song.
Age is just a number..talented and beautiful creation of God will go down to history.
Da hast du Recht

Ich liebe diese Musik...Sie löst Glückshormone aus .....
Wenn man nicht auf den Text hört, dann ja.
Der ist immer noch Weltklasse
My 36 years on earth, I finally found the original. 🥲
You don't have to be sad.
Still one of my top favorite songs.

I love the bass Line...
City life was gettin' us down
So we spent the weekend out of town
Pitched the tent on the patch of ground
Down by the river
Lit a fire and drank some wine
You put your jeans on the top of mine
Said, come in the water's fine
Down by the river
Down by the river
Down by the river
Said, come in the water's fine
Down by the river
Didn't feel too good all night
So we took a walk in the morning light
Came across the strangest sight
Down by the river
Silver fish lay on its side
It was washed up by the early tide
I wonder how it died
Down by the river
Down by the river
Down by the river
Silver fish lay on its side
Down by the river
Doctor put us both to bed
He dosed us up and he shook his head
Only foolish people go, he said
Down by the river
Why do willows weep, said he
Because they're dying gradually
From the waste, from the factories
Down by the river
Down by the river
Down by the river
Why do willows weep, said he
Down by the river
In time, the river banks will die
The reeds will wilt and the ducks won't fly
There'll be a tear in the otter's eye
Down by the river
The banks will soon be black and dead
And where the otter raised his head
Will be a clean white stone instead
Down by the river
Down by the river
Down by the river
Will be a clean white stone instead
Down by the river
Why do people like you bother texing the words that have already been sung?
Thank you!
I think the "clean white stone" towards the end is actually "clean white skull". o: It seems Google got the wrong lyrics from somewhere.
Gute Nacht von Silvia ⭐🌛👼🏼🌟🙋🏻♀️🤶🏼✨🌲
I love this Song , thank you Albert 😊😎😉
Me too.
Das war eines der ersten Lieder das auf die Umweltverschmutzung Hingewiesen haben
Good looking man. Great singer.

City life was getting us down so we spent a weekend out town
Pitched our tent on a patch of ground down by the river
Lit a fire and drank some wine you put your jeans on top of mine
I said: Come in
The water's fine
Down by the river
Down by the river
Down by the river
Said: Come in the water's fine down by the river
Didn't feel too good all night
So we took a walk in the morning light
And came across the strangest sight down by the river
Silver fish lay on its side it was washed up by the early tide
I wonder how it died?
Down by the river
Down by the river
Down by the river, silver fish lay on its side
The doctor put us both to bed
He doesed us up and he shook his head
Only foolish people go
He said
Down by the river
The mighty willows weep
Said he
Because they're dying gradually
From the waste from the factories
Down by the river
Down by the river
Down by the river
The mighty willows weep, said he down by the river
And in time the riverbanks will die
The reeds will wilt and the ducks won't fly
There'll be a tear in the otter's eye down by the river
The banks will soon be black and dead
And where the otter raised his head
Will be a clean
White skull instead
Down by the river
Down by the river
Down by the river, the banks will soon be black and dead
Down by the river
Down by the river
The banks will soon be black and dead, down by the river
Thank you very much for the lyrics.

How could this dude be overshadowed by the Beatles n the Rollingstone ? How come n why ?
He is in the Songwriters Hall of Fame, which is recognition of the highest order.
Albert is a behind the scenes Hero and Legend.
