No stupid smoke and mirrors, fireworks, dancers, etc. Just great singers and a beautiful song.

GOOD DAYS ARE GONE///// Hope to see M. Jimmy Brown as well...I wanna cry more...

A real STORY song. Just a sweet, heart felt, song from a simpler time.

Beautiful song, it’s hard to find this kind of wholesomeness in todays popular culture.

This song was a big hit in 1959. Still a great song.

This song very clearly explains the reality of life in this world. Absolutely brilliant and lovely to listen to repeatedly with no saturation at any point of time.

This was my favorite song when I was 8 years old. I just played it after all of these years and found, IT'S STILL MY FAVORITE SONG! The harmony and these sweet unforgettable words are a blessing to all, forever. THANK YOU, THE BROWNS!

All three are gone now but will live on through their music. Rest in peace, Jim Ed, Bonnie and Maxine. Thanks for all the wonderful songs.

This country royality to me. I really miss these folks!

This song always reminded our mother of our father Jimmy whitsett. Little did we know that in his short life it would indeed fit his life. I listen to this with tears as both our mother and father have passed. He to met my mother in a small valley community and were married in a small country chruch. He became a preacher but at the age of 42 he was diagnosed with inoperable brain cancer and died five days later. His funeral was held in a small town chruch not any bigger than a village and many turned out to say their goodbyes. Our Mother passed away a few years back, and it won't be long before I too will go to join them . This song did cause my eyes to fiil with tears but yet at the same time it was heartwarming to listen to it, because it takes me back when both were here and all was happy. We didn't have a lot, never wanted a lot, but our valley called eagle creek was indeed the happiest times of my two sisters and myself lifes , and all the love and kindness shown from the people of eagle creek valley we could always know and feel from the people who lived there the love and caring for each other as well you could feel the goodness in each and everyone of them. It was the best days of our life's and we were very blessed to have them and to look back now sometimes its sad because everything changes but we will always cherish and treasure those memories.

Jim Ed's voice has lost none of its richness over the years and unlike some other singers it has really stood the test of time.

My Grandpa died in 1959, just as this song came out. I always think of Pa when I hear this beautiful song.

He still sang like an angel . Rest in Peace Jim Ed Brown

I can't listen too many times to this song. It's one of the best songs that has ben recorded

I just heard this song for the first time. It brought tears to my eyes. God bless these talented people.

This song came out the year I was born, I have love listening to it from the first time I heard it in the early 60's. I wish there was a heart instead of a like button.

this was one of my mothers favorite songs when i was achild over 70 years ago.

This man has the most beautiful voice and he made my night at Grand Ole Opry tonight. His voice is about the same as it was back then. I am 52 and remember this song so very well. Thank you for the performance.

Beautifully sung, unforgettable, brings home to all just how fleeting our lives are. Truly will always a landmark in my life. Thank you The Browns

I'm glad this song gets stuck in my head from time to time. Rest in peace Jimmy Brown.

When I was a teen I was a Nanny for 3 little boys. One was named Jimmy Brown. Everytime I hear this song I think of him. Love the song. Loved little Jimmy.

What a Voice and the ladies who harmonize with JIM Ed///God bless you all!

I believe that was the song that hooked me for country music, as a child.,💯👍🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

Still brings a tear to your eyes. What a marvelous trio. Memories flooded back.

Time has not touched their voices at all. Still amazingly beautiful.

If you don't soften when you listen to this, NO PULSE!

My uncle had this record and he played it for every time I was at his house, I was 6. I am now 70 and have never forgot the song.

MET JIM ED AT A TRADE SHOW IN SOUTH TEXAS, (HE WAS THE ENTERTAINMENT) AND WE KNEW SOME OF THE SAME PEOPLE, WHICH MADE IT VERY ENJOYABLE. ONE OF THE MOST ABSOLUTE COUNTRY GENTLEMEN YOU WILL EVER FIND! R.I.P. SIR !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sometimes these simple songs are the best!

Have always loved this song.. BEAUTIFUL ❤️

I just played many decades of them singing this together..... Still the same joy!!!!

This song could rightly be called a folk song - a song of the people. I saw a video of them from the 1950's and now this one. Almost like seeing Jimmy Brown going through time as he lived his life. Beautiful.

His voice had not missed a beat. He sang just like it was his first time.

Heard this song for the 1st time in 1959, when I was 11 years old. Beautiful song then, even more beautiful now. A real timeless classic by the Browns

I am 64 and grew up with this music...for all the memories and tears bless you all!! Perry in Toronto

Fantastic remember this when I was about 5 my mother played it on the radio I am now 70 still sounds good.

I love this song, I heard it Many Mnay years ago and have always loved it.

The thing l hate most is time. When we are young we think there is no end of youth. But time is like a tiger stalking pray. We , all of us are the pray of time. Unrelenting, unfeeling, uncaring time, marching us all to the end. I love this song and these beautiful, talented people. I am so sorry that they are all gone. Rest in peace golden voice , song birds, we miss you.

One of the best country vocal groups ever! Back when country was country . Now its just POP with a cheap cowboy hat! RIP Jim ED!

Who's gonna fill his shoes? Amazing Jim Ed Brown. RIP, and thank you for the beautiful music.

when my Dad was little he thought this song was about him, his name is Jim Brown , yesterday we said good night for the last time love you loads Dad R.I.P xxxx

Thanks for making me bawl like a baby early evening, Saturday July 16, 2016. Just heard that his remaining sister died today at age 77. I was 11 years old when Little Jimmy Brown was a hit in Los Angeles. About the same time as great oldies but goodies were beginning to churn out, of every genre of music. I absolutely LOVE this song. Before The Beatles. Before the Rolling Stones. About the time the Four Seasons were singing Sherry Baby. My mommy died when I was not quite six years old in 1957. She was only 27; a Mississipian. I saw her beautiful body, spirit and soul in an open casket in Culver City, California. Somehow, when Little Jimmy Brown played on the radio in LA on the Top 40, I fell in love with this song. It comforted me so much. I went on to become a rock and roller; singing solo on the same stage at Pacoima Jr High as Ritchie Valens had, six years before, recording live versions of La Bamba and Donna. At age 12. Had the same Home Room number 21 aa Ritchie, and same Home Room Teacher, Mr. Webb. (a kind black teacher, by color). The Valens family lived four blocks from me on Artesia Ave. I picked up my first guitar at age 15; really learned how to play at age 20. And have been playing guitar now for 45 years. But The Browns was my first spiritual, musical awakening. Then came George Harrison, musically speaking. God Bless the entire Brown Family, and friends. R.I.P., dear Sister Brown. Much love, and many, many things. You have a great new family, happily waiting for you in Heaven. DR

I had the honor of seeing Jim Brown at the Grand ole Opery about 2001. He was fantastic. What a voice.

I just heard of Jim Ed's passing. He was an incredible singer, the "epitome" of a classy southern Gentleman. I never had the honor of meeting Jim Ed but I'll really miss him. My sincere condolences to Maxine, Bonnie & everyone that was close to him. Rest in peace 'Sir'. We love you and we'll miss you. Will not forget you.

About 10 years ago my folks were fortunate to see Jim Ed Brown and his sisters perform. My parents ran into Jim as everyone was leaving. Mom and Jim began talking and found out that they were from the same area of their youth. Mr. Brown was so kind to my folks and invited them to have supper in a small diner with he and his sisters. My folks and the Browns ended up talking most of the night away. My mom passed away on Aug 11, 2016. She frequently spoke of that evening and this song was played for her funeral. I find myself smiling at the thought of them talking each other’s ears off now.

This always brings a tear to my eyes

I am addicted to this performance.

Boy what harmony they had back then and still appear to have now. My Friends this is talent?

Wow, everytime I hear this song it always takes me back to my childhood days... This song is Timeless...

absolutely fantastic, they sound as good now as they did many years ago, and brings a tear to my eye

I was baptized in the Methodist Church and had my wedding bells inside the church in Las Vegas when I die the little congregation will sing the last hymn before they bury me... Amen

From my earliest recollections as a young child, I have loved this song and own the CD. The Old Lamplighter is another beautiful song they did. When you have the time, listen to it; you won't be disappointed. They had a sound that has never been, nor will ever be imitated by anyone ever.

Thanks MsGB1 & youtube for saving this classic. Great to see it live. Beautiful, but haunting harmonies still give me chills. Surely one of the top ten Country Hits of all time. Long Live Jim Ed & Siss's.

R.I.P., Jim Ed Brown. June 11 is turning out to be a very sad day.

They don't make songs like that anymore,that was one of the greatest.thanks for posting it.

Speechless!!! One of the most beautiful songs in the whole universe!

Beautiful song! I have always have loved it. Their harmony is unbeatable!

This is great.even after all the years they never lost the the charm and feel for this song,the voice never really changes if you can sing thats a God given gift that never leaves you,one of my favorite songs of all time..i love the browns..

I love this song. Jim Brown voice has never changed. Beautiful voice.

Beautiful ageless song by these lovely siblings! ♥️♥️♥️

This song was made in 1959. A good year to be born in the same year as this song.

He still had a great voice after all those years!

Our Mom taught us kids every song by The Browns. I can still see her in the kitchen with her radio on.

This song was a favourite of my brothers way back then . Always reminds me of him, I love the song to 😢😢

When I was young this song was very popular. This was my dad's favorite song and often you would see tears in hi eyes when we heard it. Love it.

I've loved this song for 50+ years. I'll never get tired of hearing it. Sad that they're all gone now.

A soul wings it's way to Heaven, Good Ol' Jimmy Brown has passed away

I remember this song playing on my parents' 78 RPM record when I was 4 years old. Sixty-five years later, they still sound the same and I still love them as much.

RIP Jim Ed, golden voice and a wholesome passion for music. You will be missed.

The Browns have contributed so much to country music, Their music will live on.

I am remembering this song from my childhood. When we visited a great uncle’s house I used to play this record over and over. I memorized the words and loved the story. Beautiful song!

Such an beautiful and ageless song.

I hope this group knows how truly great they are!!! Wish I could tell them personally how much I have always enjoyed their music!!!!

One of my favorite songs - this song meant a lot in my conversion to come to Christ. Jim

Bring back this America ---

this what music should be , not the crap they call country music today

Class act and great music. Nothing like this today. RIP sir, your voice rings clear today.

Like a fine wine, his voice got better with age. Compare this performance to one on here from 1965 of the same song and you will likely agree.

I used to hear this when I was a litle kid. I always loved it. Now at seventy three , I still love to hear it. But it makes me tear up.

My parents used to often play this song on the hifi when I was only 4 or 5 and in the last 15 years I have been searching for it with no luck because I didn’t know who the singers were and I had thought it was called Heaven fell last night! Which is one of the songs but not my favourite. I love this song brings back fond memories of my parents who are no longer around

What is it about this song that makes me tear up every time. It take me somewhere in the past. I can never skip over this one. I think I insert myself into the story. I need more music like this.

The ages take their total, but their voices remain as beautiful as ever.

I have listened to this song two or more times a day for the last 10 years ... Beautiful voices .

Love this song. They still have great voices.

After all these many years this great group still has it. They sound as wonderful as when they recorded it so many years ago.

Guide him with eternal love. And all of us too.

I watch and listen so many times. Wonderful

Absolutely brilliant song !! it is still as fresh today and lovely to listen to a thousand times over & over , that is the testimony of a good song you never tire of hearing it ,well done !!

Classic American folk music. I'm glad they're still around and performing, they're a real treasure.

What a wonderful singer! Love this song!

3 Bells are now ringing for The Browns RIP

Jim ed brown what a voice he has.love him singing that song.way to go jim ed.you still sing soooo well.

So Blessed be able to listen to the Browns, love there music with greatest voice.

They just got better over time. I love the extra depth and timbre in his voice. This song always reminds me of the comfort and beauty of having a church family throughout your life.

They were the best trio, with Jim Ed's rich voice and the harmony of his sister's, they were incomparable to any others. They set s mark for excellence that will take years, if ever, to match, let alone surpass.

What great lovely voice he had 👍🇬🇧

What a blessing. All these songs I remember, the memories from the past. All to well I remember the Ballads, the Music with impact, that formed my youth and formative years. Thank You Country Singers, The Brown Family❤
