So wonderful. Every October my dad would take mom from Chicago to NY on one of his business trips. He would do his work stuff and she would shop in the days. At night they would go to the Met and "take in the shows." (This was before you needed a second mortgage for Broadway tix.) One year they finally took me and my brother and sister and we saw The Music Man. Decades past. Dad and Joey gone, my sister working in Tokyo. Mom was 100 and living with me. We watched The Music Man on TCM one night. The next morning she didn't wake up but I thought "Well, she went out on a good night."

Definitely part of the fabric of lives from that era.

I didn't see this film until I was in my twenties, but musicals such as this firmly founded my ideas of what love would be like. My parents story of meeting could have been made into one. And both of them sang beautifully. My brothers were in the orchestras of several musicals (including this one) when I was a young teen. Tragically, my mother would pass away agonizingly close to their 25th wedding anniversary. I worried that something like that might happen to me. My wife, every bit as beautiful and enchanting as Shirley Jones is here, didn't pass away . But 17 years later she chose to leave me. There has been a huge hole in my heart ever since. That was 27 years ago now. SO here I sit, alone for all those years, yet still believing in this kind of magically intense love, quietly crying real tears, thinking of the loss my poor Father had to endure fror24 years, and now his son, an even longer time. I must look and sound pathetic, but there is no one here to see. And I will never stop believing. And at least my Father and I had a lot longer than poor Billy Bigelow. tp experience transformative love, the kind I expect to feel again in Heaven.

I am touched by your comment. Unlike the more popular and uplifting stories of finding love after loss, the darker and quiet reality is that many people never find their special someone-either again, or just never at all. It’s why many of “us” need to escape to an idealized masterpiece of young love such as this song

I can remember my aunt & uncle. who lived in the apartment house across the street singing many, many songs from Rodgers & Hammerstein musicals, this one in particular. That has stayed with me for the past 60 years or so. Anyway, when I hear this song now I think of them and my mom & dad. All the adults of my generation back then are gone now, its just my wife & me. My wife is suffering with stage 4 cancer and at times my heart is soothed by this song. I trust in God for everything and thank Him for giving me a wife for the past 56 years.

There is only one God, but I want to ask you what you think about the dude in "Paint Your Wagon", Harve Presnell, who sang " They Call The Wind Maria"---sigh... Also, he played Leadville Johnny both on Broadway, (entire run), of "Unsinkable Molly Brown", and the film version in 1964. I saw the movie with Debbie Reynolds. I guess they weren't making quality so much after that, so, those types of roles diminished for him, as far as movies go. I see where he played Daddy Warbucks in touring company; I saw it twice, once in Atlanta, so, I might have seen him.

Shirley and Gordon were perfect in their roles as Julie and Billy. This scene is incredible. I could watch it over and over. Rogers and Hammerstein were brilliant composers. "If I Loved You" is such a beautiful song. It's so touching. Amazing performance by two seasoned professionals, Gordon MacRae and Shirley Jones. The ever talented Shirley Jones mentioned in an interview that Frank Sinatra was supposed to portray the role of Billy Bigielow and then bowed out. One of the producers asked Shirley to get a hold of Gordon MacRae so he could take over the role of Billy and the rest is history. CAROUSEL was an amazing movie with a superb cast. I've been singing "If I Loved You" a lot lately. Can't help myself. ♥♥♥♥Love this song so much!!!!

As a young music student in 1965 I had the pleasure of playing in the orchestra of a rather good amateur production of Carousel. Subsequently I have seen many R&H shows on stage and screen but Carousel remains the only one I have played and holds a very special memory for me. It would be over 50 years before I saw the film and several things struck me; firstly the young lady who played Julie in Horsham bore a striking resemblance to the beautiful Shirley Jones, secondly no-one comes even close to singing "if I loved you" like Gordon MacRae. Incidently, like Richard Rogers, I had no idea what a clambake was!

@@Clara-iy4vt I love them too. Beautiful singing. love musicals from the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. Those years are called the Golden Age for a reason. I've seen many of them in the past few years, an era I didn't know too much about until a few years ago, and til then didn't realize how much I was missing

Shirley Jones had such an angelic face while Gordon MacRae was rakishly handsome, both with the most beautiful voices ever. Together, they were magic.

Nope, but if you ever get a chance, listen to Patrick Wilson singing a brief version of this song for the patrons in a little piano bar in NYC. Just charming. It's on KZfaq.

You should definitely listen to Jessie Mueller and Joshua Henry in the 2018 revival cast. While they may not top this, their voices are angelic and the magic in this scene was incredible live.

This song and "You'll Never Walk Alone" are absolute classics, musical genius. My mother and father saw this play on Broadway, the Demo album which we got se time later because my father owned radio stations was always on the Hi-Fi - remember those?

Saw the film Carousel with my mates in the fifties. I didn’t fancy it one bit but the other Manchester City centre cinemas were full. However I loved it the wonderful voices of Gordon and Shirley.I love many musicals but none as much as Carousel. I have watched many stage productions of this show over the years and I always enjoy seeing it. I introduced my daughter to Carousel, when she was old enough, and it is also her all time favourite. A good decision I made all those years ago.

There was charm and beauty and first-rate singing by Gordon MacRae who was America's finest Baritone in Musicals while Shirley Jones added sweetness to an era when this country recognized quality in more ways than one.
