Just an update for anyone who cares to know: My brother has done his second round of out patient chemo and is rapidly losing his hair. He has to go back into the hospital for about 4 or 5 days each session so he tells me what food he wants so I make up a care package and bring it to him at the hospital because the food there is pretty nasty. I am doing everything I can to help him because if he dies I want to know I did everything I could to help.

Sadly, I am terminally ill. My little brother lived 7 hours from me. They wanted to put me in hospice back in August. My doctors have up on me and I had given up as well. Eric said he wasn't going to give up on me even though he had his own busy life to live because he is a nurse practioner? He brought me to Amarillo and he doctored me and found help for those in my condition. He could have taken the path of least resistance but he didn't and I am still here for now. He improved my quality of what time I have left. I asked why he did it. He said "Because you're my brother and I love you". I played this song for him and we both had a good, healthy cry.

Having grown up in Father's Flanagan's Boys Town in the 1960s I walked past the statue dedicated to the story from which this comes from. There was a small boy who could not walk well and another boy picked him up on his back and carried him around even through the Nebraska snow. Father Flanagan ask him if he was weary from the burden and the responded, "He's not heavy Father he's my brother ". I think this group honored the story well with there music.

No song has a deeper, more desperately needed message than "He ain't heavy, he's my brother." It's moral and humane expression of caring for our fellow man has never been surpassed. The Hollies hold a unique place in musical history for this timeless gem of a song.

Allan Clarke of The Hollies is one of the iconic voices of 1960's pop music, especially when he was harmonizing with Graham Nash. The Hollies had some of the best rock musicians of the era in the line-up, including the ones you see in this video. Unfortunately, they are lip-syncing here. Their live performances are equally awesome.

@LG-kl3co 2 жыл бұрын

I made a similar comment on another vid. for He ain't heavy. Try to listen to Allan's voice rather than the song and it is surely one of the best in all of popular music for that decade.

I’m not bothered that the hit single audio was added here. They probably played it live anyway. People prefer the hit version plus you get visuals. Live versions are also on KZfaq. Great tune!

My Brother led a troubled life in many ways and for many reasons.I as his only older brother and nine years older, always tried to help and or protect him as big Brothers do.However I could not help or protect him the night he died in a tragic truck crash in 2003. This Hollies song makes me ball every time I here it.Miss him always and he never got to heavy. Love this song.

I lost my sister and 3 months later my brother, things got pretty bad and every little thing came with so much drama so about 15 years ago I decided life was to short to waste it on fight, gossip and anger so I cut off contact with all but 2 sisters. There are 6 sisters, 2 brothers and over 100 grandchildren and great grandchildren but I had to do it for my husband of 46 years, 4 children and 4 grandchildren, I didn't like who I was back then always crying and depressed so my daddy RIP told me he loved me and wanted me to be happy, to do that I had to let go but not in anger or hate but with love. Today I love my life drama free and so much more happiness and love with my little family. I hope people realize that you don't have to put up with ugliness in your life and it's not wrong to let go of negativity in your life and be at peace with your decision but most importantly let go with love. Don't get me wrong when I see a family member I say hi and maybe a small conversation but that's it.I love them but I also don't have to have all the negative that comes with them either.
