Aw, this takes me way back to the 1950/60's growing up in Glasgow . My Dad played this on vinyl 45rpm .. along with the likes of Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra, Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton many more .. and all the auld Irish tunes too .. music that I still love to this day. Music is a gift that we should pass on to our kids the way our folks did with us .. Songs send us back in time + remind us of people and places long gone . 🎸🎼🎸

This brings back fond memories of my grandparents who often played the Alexander Brothers music. I never appreciated the music as a child, but now I do. Memories of a happy time surrounded by people I loved and miss very much to this day. RIP grandparents, I love you.

Nostalgia in buckets, we used to go to Largs every summer, Silver spray and all the Silver built rowing boats for hire. Times long gone.

This is the only version I ever heard since a child ...and it always makes me cry.....

I first met Tom & Jack 40 yrs over ago when I compered all their shows at The Queensberry Arms Hotel in Annan and it was so much fun , both were true gentlemen and made everyone feel like one big family. How time fly's. We really have lost two of best entertainers ever. I would meet up from time to time through my work at Grampian TV in the 80s and 90s . I listened to a great tribute to them both on BBC Scotland's sat night show Take The Floor . I'm so proud to have met you both and worked with you . Will never forget you both RIP both.

Omg this was the theme tune to my childhood 😢 I listened to this over and over, thankfully I'm now 57, have 4 adult kids and 16 grandchildren so all is good now xxx

Love this beautiful song!!❤

Brings a tear to my eye every time I listen to this song.

I have enjoyed all of the songs from Tom and ajaack for many years God bless them R,I,P,

I remember these boys when I came from Iraq at Lossiemouth bowls club absolutely brilliant

RIP guys, you will be fondly remembered forever...

It's Remembrance Day 2013. It is with great sadness that I learned today of Jack's passing. We sure miss you Jack and thanks for the memories. Condolences to the his brother Tom and all of the Alexander family.

my granny used to sit me on her knee and sing this to me :D good memories :D

My mother's favourite.I have a tear in my eye when I hear it sung by Tom & Jack.

The best version of this song by a mile. as my dad said "It wid bring tears to a glass ee."

My dad used to sing this and lots of their songs. Love it. Think the queens passing has made me sentimental for my homeland. 😢😢😟

I have not heard this song in years, my aunt used to sing it when I was a kid living in Scotland and she just passed away a few months ago and I had not seen her in years, but this song reminds me of her. Beautiful song. Miss living in Scotland.

Awesome song. My favourite.song I was a nobody child. Love from us all in Durban South ❤❤❤❤❤

Sang on stage with these guys in the early 70’s. Wonderful performers and really great guys. Miss you both. CMN.

The one song i remember my dear father getting a tear in his eye for, i seen them in concert 46 years ago in Glasgow

This reminds me of my childhood in rural South Lanarkshire. For 18 blissful years everything about Scotland was good. These kinds of songs, and 2 great football teams - Rangers and Scotland, and I had heard nothing of any others until I went to University in Glasgow. What a shock and different perspective on life that gave!!

They'll be together again now. R.I.P.

This song means so much to me it's my early childhood . Thanks for sharing this song .

just brings back happy memories with my folks

Ah now - I've somthing in my eye... Aye - in fond memory of my dear Grandmother who was getting Cataracts and used to sing this song to me.

I am nearly 60 and still can't listen to this without crying x

I can't help but think after all the years that thus sing was sung,that it would touch a chord and heartstrings to the listener and fan of The Alexander Brothers.

Beautiful, very few singers can put real emotion in singing like this.

My mothers favorite song. We had their albums when I was a child,so I remember these old songs fondly.

I hadn't heard of Jacks's passing.God rest his soul. One of my favourites from the 60's

fantastic reminds me so much of my parents and grandparents having a wee sing song on a sat night.. and i was on ma granny's knee and she would sing it to me. ah bless great memories, thanks.

My brothers friend used to ask him to sing this in the go as you please at the club , he used to call it the bastards song

Still brings a tear to my eye?

What wonderful, peaceful memories come to mind upon hearing this song! I remember the lads coming to Ottawa, Canada many times when I was younger... so many happy times come back to bring a smile to my face! RIP Jack and thanks to the two of you lads for bringing so many wonderful moments of enjoyment through the years. Your music continues to uplift, sooth a troubled heart and encourage.

RIP, Tom
