thanks for 9M :) please listen to my guitar covers at my account

My grandmother sang this to me when I was young, she passed away today. I love you, Grandmother, my sweetest soulmate, my rock, you are home now.

My mom passed away due to Covid 19 just hearing her playlist ❤️ fall in love with this simplicity thank u god

Because of Covid， I lost my best friend （since we were kids untill went to university together ）this song was his favorite。。。tears just can't stop 😭😭

This song is dedicated to my dad who went for cancer treatment aboard and didn't return home😭 i miss u dad see u in better place

I left my family, friends and my hometown and came to this new country when I was 15, I didn't speak the language then and struggled to make friends, find jobs and to survive in this foreign society. Whenever I'm feeling lost, the song can always take me back to my home and the simple and happy life I used to have. I still remember the day I left. The train slowly accelerating and my hometown station soon became miles away. Now here I am in this country, still trying so hard to achieve my dreams. This song is my nostalgic song, my stay strong song, and also a song to remind me of where i came from. It literally means the whole world to me

In my 4th grade, I'd a really awesome lady as my english teacher. I remember the day when she made us sing this song after writing the lyrics on the board. It was a free class, we sang it along her. We all were so cheery and innocent back then...only to not know that she'd leave the school the next year. I haven't known about her ever since then. No contacts, nothing. Don't know if she'll EVER see this comment, but if by any chance she does I want to say her, that thank you so much ma'am for making my 3rd and 4th grade years so memorable. Now that I finally found this song, all your remembrances are rushing back to my mind. Lots of love from one of your 4th graders from FBS, Muskan❤️️

I lost my father when i was 1 years old..i missed u dad so much,may allah keep ur soul in rest

I’m 72 ant thought I learnt a lot from all my time I’ve been on this planet. Yet today I heard this song for the first time. The emotional joy was overwhelming. The memories came back for the first time in a long time. The words are few but they mean the world. Thank you for your gift

For all those who listen to this song and emotionally attached to it. This song passes on all your emotions, nostalgic memories and heart-warming feelings to me. I don't know anyone of you but still cry to read through your messages I feel like I inhale all the pains ; losing parents, dear ones and the best moments of life.

I would listen to this and play it on my guitar a lot when I was homeless. It always got me through the day.

I only heard this song recently from a movie and it immediately resonated with me for my late Mum & Dad. Through time, space and all eternity my love and gratitude is with them, and this song made me feel connected to them and relive beautiful memories

I remember the time when i was 10 and in my school my music teacher used to make us sing this song and i never got tired of listening and singing this song. Brings back so many memories

I remember doing a musical at my school in elementary school. God i missed the old days.

I used to listen to this song with my daddy when I was a little girl on a record. I never knew there was this version. It’s such a beautiful & melancholy song. I’ll never forget it.

I still remember this song because my music teacher taught it to us. I come to this beautiful song every now and then. Thank you sir ❤

I remember when I in class 6 (2014) our English teacher taught us this song. I can't explain the pure nostalgia that hits when I listen to this song.♥️

This song reminds me of my Father in the 80's, he used to play this song in our cassette player when I was 6 or 8 years old. God is so gracious when I ask our LORD if the end times is already at hand? Then this song just suddenly popped out in my mind today(10/23/18)after 40 years? Now I fully understand the meaning of the lyrics it talks about the coming "Rapture" when all of us believer of Christ will meet Him in the clouds.

Nostalgic..... 1961 when it was release, And now July 28, 2019.... People’s love and listening this song... And i m one of them.

In my childhood days me and my best friend listen to this blessed song we sang it together . I am really missing those days . This is not only a song but an emotion and Masterpiece :')

The most beautiful version of this song I have ever heard. Love me some Justin Timberlake.

Wow! "If you miss the train I'm on, then you know that I have gone...", this was my oldest brothers favourite song which he and I sang often together growing up in the 60's-70's...unfortunately I missed that train he was on, and now, he has gone...on May 25, 2015...RIP my Brother. Thank you for uploading this...😢

This is my dad’s favorite song, he always sang it to me, so I want to surprise hi by playing this on the piano for his birthday

I remember singing this song in my school days. I started missing those days after listening this song 😭😭😭😭

It's really good to see people listening and sharing their memories with this song Those who have never listened to this one and are just listening to this masterpiece can't feel the same way that we do it's totally different feeling trust me For me:- this reminds me of my childhood (which I believe was one of the best there is) especially the school days where we all sang this song in our morning assembly It's been like a decade since I last sang this song And the fact that I didn't even knew at that time this was a song 😅 As far as I can remember it was added by a teacher I don't know but I suddenly remembered that there was such a song during our school days It was kinda like a hundreds miles a hundred miles... 🎶 Then I finally decided to look it up and after quite a while I got it! That's it, Thanks for reading 🌟

Anyone listening to this song in 2020?

Fantastic! I heard the song for the first time by the Journeymen in 1963. I learned it and have been singing it ever since. I never get tired of this beautiful song. Note: JOHN PHILLIPS headed the Journeymen and later did the Mamas & the Papas,

If you missed the train I'm on You will know that I am gone You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles A hundred miles, a hundred miles A hundred miles, a hundred miles You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles Lord, I'm one, Lord, I'm two Lord, I'm three, Lord, I'm four Lord, I'm five hundred miles away from home Away from home, away from home Away from home, away from home Lord, I'm five hundred miles away from home Not a shirt on my back Not a penny to my name Lord, I can't go back home this ole way This ole way, this ole way This ole way, this ole way Lord, I can't go back home this this ole way If you missed the train I'm on You will know that I am gone You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles A hundred miles, a hundred miles A hundred miles, a hundred miles You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles

This is a really touching and loving song. Made me cry.

When ever I listen to this song I remember my beloved father, he sang this song when he tooked me to zoological garden along with my sister and my brother , it maybe 30 years since then . I cried that day cause 🐘🐼zoo was closed and my father sang this song for me to stop crying. On the other hand I remember a lots my beloved darling who live in Burma ( Myanmar) . We have been separated by nine rolling mountains. Here I miss those happy time we were together , we cried in small things. Those were the day's........ Missing u 💓

This song is dedicated to all the people who are staying far away from their home and can't able to come home because of Corona virus Miss my home 😢 Stay home and stay safe

I'm 15 and most teens in my age doesn't know this song exists but I actually love this song for how many years and still my favorite.

My grandpa really likes this song... he used to sing it to me while playing the guitar when I was younger and one day when I’m much older I’m gonna come back to this song crying remembering him. Love you grandpa

This song always bring tears anyone agree with me out there

i have been humming this song for three days and i finally found it!! this such a good song ;)

It's always reminded me of my grandpa. He was a brakeman for the Southern Pacific Railroad, and the train passed by their house. He died when I was 5, and I knew he was more than 500 miles away. My grandparents had petitioned Washington, for train whistles to blow at intersections after my uncle was killed by a derailed train, that had struck a truck at an intersection. This song has held a place in my heart, from the first time I heard it.

After listening to many versions, my son said that this version is his favorite, and he listened to it once every day before going to bed. Thank you for your support

I am still in high school and only remembered bits and pieces of this song till yesterday. I remember sitting in the western music period in the basement of our school in 2nd maybe 3rd grade singing this song. I know im still not very old but this song brings back so many memories of me when i was a small child. This song is a very big part of my childhood. I listened to it soo much and my friends and i sang it in elemantry school a lot. It makes me remember our teacher who taught us music and get all nostalgic. Every second and every tune of this song brings flashes and images. I just love it so much.

I am an older gentleman who has heard lots of versions of this and... this is the best imo.

My favourite song. No words to say. More than Gorgeously!

I keep coming back to your song every few months.... I am connected to this song ,I don't know how... Greetings from Trinidad and Tobago

This song makes me cry alot during my childhood days when i left my friends due to family problems 😭😭😭

Dislikes are from people who were crying and couldn't see the like button.... i think m 7000 miles far from india

Great job, I just listened to it from both Peter, Paul & Mary, then Joan Baez, his version is just as touching and sensitive. 😀

I am only 12 years old. But after listening to this song, I don't know why I have a feeling of "those were the days" the song is magic. Thank you

A really wonderful achievement made by all the singers,keep it up & also many many congrats🎸🎸🎸🎸

My father used to turn this song in the radio, i've been searching for this awesome melody for years and now i found it- the childhood song

I've been searching this song for 6 years long, I heard this song from my english teacher in elementary school. Finaly I know the title of this music, thanks god T-T

I miss my childhood so much😭😭😭 LIFE is so tough now

I feel like crying every time I listen to this song. It makes me feel so sad and nostalgic....

This really hits home, being a student studying abroad, I do count the miles the further I go away.

I love this a lot!! Just too melodious!!!❤️❤️ It is mainly dedicated to the memory of peole we have lost.Thank a pot Justin Timberlake.😀😀

Love the simplicity of this song. Used to sing it during my school days.

편안하게 잘들었네요. 지금은 아무도 없는 시골고향집으로 달려가고 싶네요~~^^🎎

Why 1960s, 70s, 80s songs are always re-sing? I think because those era songs & music are the best. My 8 years old son play his keyboard & I play guitar to this song every weekends at home. We enjoy those era songs such as Stand by me, Sukiyaki, Al condorpasa, Love is blue, etc. Thank you for up load to this new version 500 miles.

I'm listening this song for past 9 years.... This song reminds me of the gone times and all the memories that are now faded.... This song makes me homesick for a home that I never had....

I see a whole life in the lyrics to be honest. Life bruised but life wants to get a healing. That's why I listen on this lyrics.

It's 2020 And this song still hits the soul ❤️😌

😍it melts my heart ♥️ Missing those golden years of my life 😞

Again I'm visiting this song. Such beautiful and grace.... live long and prosper Shircool

We enchanted it during our school morning gathering, this song's so Powerful ❤️❤️❤️❤️

2020 and still counting. Where you at yo

"Inside Llewyn Davis" got me here. This is nostalgic!

Wow! Didn't ever expect to hear Justin Timberlake sing a song like this

This shows the versatility and artistry of Justin Timberlake that he's willing to step outside of his genre and comfort zone to cover this classic.

I just searched for this song outta nowhere and here i am listening the song after 16 long years which i had sung in school's annual day. Felt really nostalgic and relaxed.

This is actually one of the songs that our singing teacher taught us in school, when i was in grade 1 and we sang it till grade 5, :) and at those moments I didn't like this song, for I feared leaving my parents even for the sake of a song! And today, I am nostalgic about this school rhyme. I am really missing those beautiful days. Anyways thank you for uploading!

My 6th grade english teacher played this on class and now im 9th grade. I'm still in love a revisit every so often

i'm hearing this song in 2020..i can feel it every word & sometimes it's made me imotional.now i stay at home.. i'm damn sure that when i'll go to dhaka & will sing it,i can't hold my eyes.

This is a beautiful rendition, and true to Hedy West's original, which is another amazingly moving version :-)

Jab koi baat bigad jaae... Jab koi mushkil parr jaae Tum rehna saath mere O humnava...... O humnava.... The Indian version of the song. Dunno which came first this one or the above, but both are awesome.

Beautiful that makes feel about those are actually passed away like my grandPa really miss him very much but I really enjoyed your song,s from my side u,r the good hard work!!!😪😢😓.

I'm from China ,i love this song for years.

I first heard this song at 4H camp before i went to High School. Now it sticks with me forever

""You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles""😍😍😍😍 so much heart touching lyrics ever hear💗💗

Beautiful song...❤️ I'm here after reading it's lyrics in a webcomic,it really fits in that scene 😞

I am learning how to play harmonica because of this song, so beautiful! This song really speaks to my heart because I left my country and come to the States for a new life. Whenever I am homesick, I just want to listen to this song.

I used to go to learn guitar during my age 8 to 15 and my teacher taught me this song. I don't know why i get emotional every time I listen to it. I get really nostalgic thinking of those care-free days. Now its quiet hard to find time to play guitar. And i don't even know why everyone gets so emotional listening it. Its just a Miracle ..!! Old days flashing in my eyes as the tears drop down ..!! Wanna grow up again if possible and get all the love again ..!!

Pure nostalgia for our safe childhood and a great home is evoked by this stirring song.

My favorite song! Remind me of my childhood days

thanks for posting..... It helped me in the inter-class singing. :-)

My father would play guitar and sing this with my sister and i when we were very small. When my father was dying my sister and i sung this to him. Now my sister just died on Sunday and i sung this to her as they tried to revive her, and i pray she heard me. I never knew Justin did this, and im not a fan, but i am thankful to him for doing this, and i really like this version. A friend will sing this at her memorial next week. I cant bear the pain. I love you my sister.

I sang this song together with my friends when we were at school. I really miss my childhood memories. 😢😭

This is song is so soothing and calm, suitable before bedtime!
