The woman crying and holding Donny @ 42:01 is my mother, Kelly. She was there meeting him for the first time with her twin sister. She passed away this last week but loved Donny until the end💜

I absolutely adore the Osmond’s then and now.. I attended MANY concerts back in my youth (70s) i attended all the rock and 3 Osmond concerts AND The Osmond’s concerts the absolute best !! They deserve to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!

Tonight my brother is resting comfortably and the end of his Cancer battle is near, I was meant to hear Wayne’s story, thank you.

My mom took me and my brother to their concert at the Bosten Garden & I'll never forget it I've loved these guys since i was a kid. I'm now 63 and still love them and am grateful for their sacrifices, because during my childhood I had my own turmoil I faced, but they got me through it and made me feel loved all because of their songs. They will never know how they have touched my life and kept me on the straight and narrow road. I will always be grateful to them and to God for helping me during my tough times. :)

Crazy Horses is one of the most underrated Rock albums ever. If the Bros. would have been able to progress from that album and produce more music like that their story would have had a completely different second half. The Osmonds ROCK, no doubt about it!

The forgiveness in the osmonds are amazing.

I have alway loved the Osmonds especially Donny, but after watching "Being a Osmond" each one of those guys has a very special place in my heart forever. They don't know it, but they all helped a little girl get through some real bad and sad times. Thank you Osmonds for being you. I'm also sorry for all the pain you all endured. I wish I could have been there for you. Like you were for me.💗💜

So sorry that they endured so much pain. As a fan, I had no idea what they were going through but if it helps at all, they should know that they were the best part of many many of our lives. I'm 62 and I will ALWAYS be an Osmond fan.

I love when Wayne said he weeps. It’s just so honest and I admire and respect that so much. ❤️❤️❤️

Many of us were fans of the Osmonds back in the day and still to this day. Looking at this video really made me realise what they went through in order to please all their fans. They are wonderful people who have given so much of themselves to others. God bless them all ❤️

How do you watch this without crying! The Osmond's gave me hours and hours of pleasure, and who knew their pain? They exemplified the true meaning of "family", and I will forever be grateful I grew up with them around me.

never was a fan but as soon as I got an eyeful of Wayne with his tie-dye tee shirt, I knew he was a guy I'd like to have a conversation with. He seems to continue to have a good time on the journey of life. As the doc continued I could appreciate his sensitivity and humor. Also Wayne s spot-on with his comment about serving others! The best way to get out of "self' is thru volunteering, says I. Cheers

Born in 1962 I grew up with the Donnie and Marie Show. Little Bit Country, little Bit Rock N Roll. I grew up Baptist but converted to the LDS church in 1983 just before my 21st birthday. I saw Donnie in person at University Mall in Provo in 1984 when I was buying a suit for my mission to Japan. All of the Osmonds had that million dollar smile. How could you be anything but 100% happy with a smile like that? Right? Well, from my own experience of trying to live up to the standards of the LDS church which makes it very easy to be hard on yourself for not being perfect enough, I realize the pressure they all were under must have been incomprehensible. I wish them all the best. I wish closure for them with each other and what they went through. I wish them health and happiness going forward. I wish them peace and rest.

Wow! They sing beautifully after all these yrs. I always loved the Osmond brothers and they’re all still good looking! 🥰🌺❤️

LOVED IT ALL! HUGE OSMOND FAN SINCE I WAS 9 YEARS OLD! NOW AT 60 YEARS💜 OF AGE I STILL AM! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

This is A real High Class Family .. They grew up loving each other .

I love this beautiful family! I loved them as a teen in the 70’s and even more now! Thank you Osmond brothers for all you sacrificed for your fans. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Merrill’s voice is amazing! They all have great voices! Their harmonies are perfect!

Sobbing!! How many wonderful TV appearances you gave us. Thank you all for being such great men. You had pain but you came through. God Bless! 💞

I am glad to have the opportunity to watch this. It put a new light on what this family sacrificed in order to entertain and touch others. May they be richly blessed and enjoy their families to the max!

This was a real eye opener for me. I have been a fan for years and years. I'm sorry that they had it so tough. They are all mega talented and I wish them all the very best.

It was so sad to see how much pain they all had experienced and still endure They paid an extravagant price for the fame that someone else wanted

I’ve loved the Osmonds since the 70’s. I’d go with my friends to watch the taping of Donny and Marie show. It was in their studio in Orem/Provo Utah area. One taping had Andy Gibb as one of the stars visiting. We sat in the audience and I noticed their father, George Osmond sitting on our row!! Being there was thrilling. While our sweet husbands tended our young children. May Heavenly Father bless them and their families continually throughout lives now!! -Sue Salazar

I was never an Osmond fan. Started watching them a few weeks ago. How could you not love Jay and Wayne! It was so hard to watch all of them fight back tears. The pain was so real you could almost touch it.

As I'm watching this documentary about The Osmond Brother's, my heart ❤️ & soul is just aching and breaking for this family.Not just for The Osmond Brother's who perform's but for the brother's who're deaf as well too because dispite them being deaf they wanted to be part of the performing Osmond Brother's on stage with them, and then listening to their individual stories about what they're going through & what life was like for them at home & on the road.And here they were uplifting our own lives & helping many people getting through their own personal issues,yet The Osmond Brother's were going through their own issues & demon's themselves, their just like everyone else theirs human being's & they're not really being allowed to live & have as normal live's like most people get to have, I feel like they need lot's of hugs 🤗🤗 & I felt like hugging 🤗🤗 them all right through my phone, I feel like telling them that they're loved ❤️ and appreciated and everything is gonna be alright & tell them that nobody & nothing is ever gonna hurt you guy's ever again.Much ❤️ & hug's 🤗🤗 to The Osmond Family

Such truth spoken in this documentary. The love this family has for one another and the fans is truly genuine. Thank you Osmonds for sharing and for being so open and honest. Truly an amazing loving Family.❤❤❤❤❤

Wonderful memories of the Osmonds, brought tears to me eyes 🥰

Their lives almost parallels the Jackson's? Both came from large families, faith was prominent in their lives, both groups started at a very young age, they were popular during the same decade and their fathers groomed them relentlessly, and both fathers were domineering. I think both the Osmonds and the Jacksons put on brave and happy faces for the world in those early years because they did not want to disappoint their fathers because the consequences may have have been just short of child abuse. I cried watching the brothers coming to terms with their upbringing, life journeys and with each other. They sacrificed much for us their fans. What a great price they have had to pay. Thank you so much for the music and Joy that you all brought to the world.

I love this family. I'm just sorry that the joy they brought to so many of us caused them so much pain. They have the best voices ever.

'The greatest blessings come to a person when they serve others' - Wayne Osmond. 🧡🧡🧡

They seem such lovely, damaged men. So terribly sad that parents and people that are trusted could do this to children. They all seem to be gentle souls

The joy they bring to so many came at a terrible price, but it seems to have made them the strong men they are. Thank you to all the Osmonds for the joy you have brought me and so many others through the years.

Always appreciated the good manners and love between this whole family. Marie is sweet, too. I was a teen in the sixties and when my eldest daughter was born in 1969, we enjoyed seeing the Osmond family on television. God bless the families of the Osmonds!

I fell in love with them 46 years ago. My first concert was to see The Osmonds. Watching this made me cry! I follow Jay and Karen's Live and love hearing the stories or seeing the excitement going down memory lane. I still listen to their music over and over. Rhey have been such a blessing in our lives!

Broke my heart when Wayne said he wanted to be a doctor and dad wouldn't let him. Some parents are to strict and others are not. I think when you turn 18 kids can make their own decisions on what they want be in life.

When I was in my early twenties I lived in Buffalo NY. I happened to be driving to work and saw a white limo drive into a place called Record Theater. I parked and entered the building to find the Osmonds. I walked down the line being pushed and shoved by fans. So when I got to where Wayne was standing I started to move on but he reached out and shook my hand and asked me how I was doing. A very brief encounter but his act of kindness to me has lasted a lifetime. I'm sixtyfour now. God bless Wayne hope he's doing ok now.

Through your sadness you brought so many joy. Especially me❤️and I lived in Australia, I bought every teen magazine and played your records over and over again.

Amazing family to this day. Strict parenting in those days was tough, not like today. Respect

The Osmonds were one of my favorites. It's about family love!!!

I just love all the Osmonds , they are all wonderful, talented people.

PLEASE let your family know how GRATEFUL I am for their LOVE, TALENTS, ENJOYMENT AND TRUE INDIVIDUAL/FAMILY SACRIFICES . Your FAMILY has been my ROCK and HOPE since i was 5-6 going on 51 yrs, I can NEVER repay you or your family for the JOY and HOPE given me. THANK YOU GOD BLESS

Donny can do anything! What a beautiful, talented family!

Just simply thank you for all the great music; the Osmonds were the soundtrack to my youth! And to this day I listen to your music regularly!

I grew up watching the OSMONDS 🎉. Now I'm crying 😢

I was security for the Osmond Brothers back 1983 in Hot Springs Arkansas at The Vapors Club. We had a great time going fishing on Lake Quachita and I stopped and borrowed a big bass from a livewell and we hooked to Wayne's fishing pole to prank Allen , Merrill.,and Jay . Had a great time and fond memories of the children also. I gave all the kids necklaces with martial arts motifs. Thanks for the memories. ✝️🙏

This was just sad all the way around. Never knew they were so sad. It's quite a shock. But I will always love the Osmonds. There will never be another phenomen like them☹️♥️

Merrill was overlooked big time. I love their honesty and integrity. Sad for Marie that she wasn't part of their bonding as much. Adopt me

I wasn't a big Osmond fan, it was David Cassidy for me. But I did like many of their songs, and watched the Donny and Marie show as a teen. I hadn't realized how gifted they all were until hearing the singing here. They are all sweet, earnest and insightful, and their stories are moving. I really enjoyed this. (Footnote: my brother worked on Donny's car decades back and told me he was a good guy.)

Tears for their pain, hurt, & trauma. And tears for their healing. May the blessings of love, understanding & forgiveness continue to fuel unending compassion & healing.

Wayne is a trip, what a sweetheart!

This documentary shocked me! Have been an Osmond can since 1971, cried myself to sleep with an intense love and devotion for these beautiful, talented brothers, Donny was my God esp Especially, they were my childhood! But so sad and shocked to know just how sad there childhoods were, you just never know what's really going on in people's lives! How sad this made me feel! But thank god you all went through it together! and can talk about the hurt, the fear, the real sacrifices you all endured to give us the fans, the happy childhoods you never got to live! I love you all for saving so many lives with your music, your empathy, but most of all for your honesty, strength and total love of each other throughout your troubled lives! You can now be free! Thank you x

The Donny & Marie Show, best entertainment show on tv ever. period. they bring so much joy and happy memories to so many people the world over, even i am from Borneo, halfway around the world. They are so famous even in Asia, so many of us grew up watching them, thank you for the beautiful memories.

I love it when you boys sing, He ain’t Heavy he’s My Brother. I pray you all are closer today, because Families Are Forever! You boys were the best missionaries ever. We are thankful for the gospel everyday.

My favourite song of theirs is the massively underrated One Way Ticket To Anywhere. Brilliant!!! An emotional journey here for the guys but I'm glad at the end they said it brought them some closure. I notice the concert has fans actually watching it and not throwing up a wall of mobile phones. The best way to see a concert...

Absolutely amazing video... We had the privilege to see Donny and Marie live at the Flamingo 3 years ago and what an amazing show.. Glad to see Donny Osmond is back at Harrah's Resort and Casino in Las Vegas 🙂

It's understandable that they're all depressed, they had their lives dictated to them since they could walk. I feel sorry for them.

This show not only reminded me of my young days, but it showed me family love.

I grew up with their music and was fortunate to see them in concert in 1977. I never realized how much they gave up to be entertainers. I just want to say “thank you” for sharing your talents and giving your fans awesome memories!

Back in the early seventies, my friend and I, at the age of 7 or 8, use to pretend we were married to the Osmond brothers when playing house. I can't remember if it was Wayne or Jay that I chose and she the other. How funny to think about that now.

wooowww !!! I love the Osmonds! all talented, a beautiful family! thanks for sharing !!!!

Wonderful tribute!. .Sad, beautiful, honest, spiritual. A heartfelt summary of a family’s life work. A childhood to adulthood snapshot of devotion to parents, fans and each other.

Thank you for touching our lives!!!!! Watching this documentary shines through on how the world is truly a better place for having you gentlemen (and Marie) in it!! Live, Love and Laugh...

The Osmonds brought so much joy! When I was a little girl, & my folks were arguing & arguing, I’d listen to “Go Away Little Girl” & feel like I belonged. I didn’t realize back then, it was their warm harmony which touched my heart. Very sorry there was much pain & many burdens from being superstars. May the love & gratitude from all of us bring the Osmonds the comfort & joy they so unselfishly gave. Godspeed.

It's wonderful to see how this family overcame hardships and cared to express love to one another and their audience. Thanks for sharing your testimony online. Blessings

Beautiful family 💕 So many families can't find the strength to endure like this wonderful example.

What an amazing, resilient family. They have give so much to so many, even through adversity. They were put on this earth for a reason. We the fans Love Them For A Reason.

So sad about Jimmy’s stroke.

I can’t believe Merrill doesn’t know how handsome he is! I would love to see a video about their wives and children ❤️

Honestly, in 1980 I got baptized Later -Day Saint the Mormons because of Donny & Marie. I adored you all with upper respect. Of course, pier to this, I was placed into a foster home in Toledo, Ohio because my parents were going through a bitter divorce & so, having your family on TV every Friday evening, gave me the fuel to dream about everything a 10 year-old would in a situation I experienced. Thank you with love. ❤️

I am so sorry that you didn't really have a childhood, I know how that is. So many things missed out of , just know that I watched you and listen to your music. I am 60 and cannot get my lost childhood back , I hope and pray that you all get along and value each other. I have plenty of family, that have nothing to do with me. The Lord Jesus is my friend and Savior! Thank you all for getting me through so many hard times .

Showbiz is tough. I can’t imagine all the traveling they had to do and the time they had to spend away from their families. They are wonderful men, gentle souls, real people. So glad to see them have this chance to get together and talk and to realize the most important thing through it all, is that, THEY ARE BROTHERS!

I appreciate their authenticity. We all have parts of our childhood to heal from. Facinating story of their journey. Thamks for the upload.

I grew up with the Osmonds🤗 They will always have a place in my ❤️

They're the band that I as a kid wanted to see in person. I never knew except until now the difficulty that they had to endure in exchange for fame and glamour. I'm so sorry for them having to go through that when they were enormously multitalented individuals. But they had inspired me and helped greatly in my appreciation for music, and how their music had helped me cope a dark and painful childhood.

The osmonds will always be a big part of my life love them all

Wayne and his tools! Adorable ❤

My in-laws lived in Provo, Utah for many years and Wayne was their Home Teacher!!! And when we would visit we would go to the Ward with ALL the Osmonds and their families. They were just REGULAR PEOPLE!!!!

“Donnie’s got it worse obviously.” So humble, even when talking about death threats 🤣

tears at the end the brothers being together

I grew up in Philippines watching the Osmonds with my entire family. Very wholesome entertainment by very talented siblings. We look to them as our example growing up. I am sad and sorry to know of what they’ve been through. We all go through though times but they handled theirs with grace and dignity. These are rare individuals in the world of entertainment. My respect to each and everyone of them.

What a brave insight into their life’s thankyou

Great video! I've been a fan of the Osmond brothers since 1972. I loved them all..but my favorites were Donny and Merrill..in that order. I had such a big crush on Donny😍and dreamed of meeting him. The Osmonds are so good looking and so multi talented! And they are good people too. So many great memories..the 70's was an innocent time and such an exciting time! The kind of excitement of that time can never be duplicated. I miss those days. I love the Osmonds!❤️ Thank you so much Dave for sharing!

first 45 i bought as a kid in 1972 was crazy horses.

So talented. Love all of you guys and Marie. You are blessed and you bless others with your beautiful voices and 💕 hearts.

Watching this love Wayne very honest and funnyx

And we all thought they loved their childhood-life... We were jealous and wanted to be part of their family...I am soooo happy that I lived MY childhood, not the Osmonds'...

Fascinating, touching and compelling look at their lives all these years later. I loved them (crushed on Merrill and Donny) when I was a young teen in the early 70s and I have tremendous respect for the way they've handled their lives with grace and dignity. Despite the highs and lows most of us can only imagine, they have achieved the best definition of success.

This was so sad. I loved the Osmonds with a passion that only a pre-teen can feel. I didn't like the Donny and Marie show, and I preferred the rockier songs. Having said that, I just shed a few tears hearing them sing one of my favourite love songs. I hope that this reunion made them closer, but I read Marie's autobiography and she makes it sound like they're all very separate. However, she didn't like any criticism of her parents, so it might be her who's separate. Their talent was/is amazing. So is their strength; their regimented upbringing, becoming famous while very young, losing everything - all these things would send many people to drink and drugs. As an adult, no longer harbouring a girly crush for Donny and Jay, they've earned my respect.

Amazing they can still singing!

I remember having a crush on them too when I was a little girl. lol !! I used to love that song "Puppy Love" and I would play it over and over. I watch the movie about their lives last night. That was my 1st time watching it .

Oh man! This touched my heart so much! I have been an Osmond fan since before I was a teenager! Merrill was my first favorite Osmond brother! Then when Donny started recording, I was a teenager and had that teenage girl crush! But even now I love the Osmond sound and how they feel about their fans, but even more, how the have grown to really appreciate each other! Yes I wish I could have an autograph from each one of them but doubt I will ever have that chance.

Amazingly talented family. I admire these boys/men for resisting all the pressures and staying clean and pure. God bless them always. Not many in the entertainment industry can top the Osmonds.

I love how honest and genuine this family is. Not was. But still is.

I had just said to myself, "these guys are so insightful and caring and kind," then the next thing that came up was that Merrill is charging $28 to talk to him for 8 minutes. You could probably get a full hour for $75 from a trained counselor.

I remember the Osmonds. Mostly Donnie and Marie. I wasn’t a crazy fan but watching this was so sweet. Now that I’m 47 I have an appreciation for their story and wow they are really good!!

I was so sad for the brother at 23:41 who wanted to go to med school but his father wouldn't allow it and then right after that Donny talks about the "unspoken law" in the family. Though they are incredibly talented and successful and they wouldn't speak out against their father, it's really sad that they weren't allowed to follow their own hearts. And goodness me, but Donny is still so heart stopping handsome.

Many parts of this broke my heart. They seemed like the most loving family and to hear Merrill say he was not close to Donny was sad. Everything they went through in their lives to bring joy to ours takes a very special kind of person and the Osmond;s did that.

It’s a shame Marie didn’t participate in this touching documentary. I hope she is ok and knows that life is short and you only get one family . So best to make the most of it.

The Osmonds, The Jackson 5, The Bee Gees......God awful childhoods. Made us happy. 😢

Get away to remember...perfectly said!!🤟💜
