Not a single serviceman whether that would be Army, Navy or Airforce would have not had a pinup of her image. She was the goal and inspiration of the country. We won the war, and sweet Vera Lynne was no small part of our victory. RIP sweet angel, now singing for the angels.

Two years ago our beloved lady Dame Vera Lynn passed away at age 103. I have not forgotten you dear! Never will I forget the sacrifices those men and woman made. They did the unimaginable. Thanks you the Greatest Generation for everything! I can enjoy my life in peace because of all those sacrifices that were made. Rest easy everyone god bless you! Thanks you Dame Vera Lynn we will meet again. God bless you!

R.I.P. tonight to the lovely Dame Vera Lynn who died at age 103 today. She taught us none of us are too old to dream. She was a shining light to many people during the darkest days of WW II & set an example that so many can learn from today. Had the privilege of meeting her & calling her friend for the past 52 years. You will be sadly missed

Rest in Peace dear Vera Lynn, you were a voice of loving reassurance in a time of unimaginable heart ache and fear.

I am 83 years old, and hope I never grow too old to dream

Unfortunately the song has not been available since the 1950s. It was from a live performance at a British airfield and there was a glitch in the recording and so it was't re-released. Thanks to the digital age I was able to remove the glitch and so now it sounds fine. Cheers on your impending wedding. There are plenty of wonderful songs available by Vera Lynn on CD and online that would be suitable for your special day. "A Nightengale sang in Berkeley Square" comes to mind.

Before my lover passed away Feb 2012 in his 90, he taught me this song and many other things, I will always love and rember him as a wonderful uncle,mentor and lover.

MY best friend and lover passed away 10 years ago, and he taught me this song which reminds me all the wonderful time we have had for 25 years.

I lived through those years I am WW2 vet myself. This song almost brough tears to my eyes. Thanks for sharing it. Vera Lynn was another one of those great voices from that era.

A beautiful tribute to all the brave souls who lost their lives defending their countries. Regardless of where they were from or what flag they were fighting for, all of those troops were someone's son or daughter, someone's sister or brother, someone's father, mother, husband, wife, friend. May they all rest in peace, and may their sacrifice never be forgotten. Lest we forget.

Played this to my grandma at her request as she passed away. 😭😭😭 RIP Vera Lynn.

This song and film makes me think of my mother’s cousin who was lost in the North Sea on October 31, 1944, just a few missions shy of going home for the birth of his first child. I can’t help but wonder what he would think if he were to return and see the state of things now. Love Vera Lynn and the songs she sang.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE AND ADORE VERA LYNN!! "NOW IS THE HOUR" IS MY FAVORITE SONG!! "

I didn't think Vera Lynn could possibly outdo herself singing "White Cliffs of Dover", but this proves me wrong. Spectacular!

I'm an American born in the early stages of the war. I have always admired the English especially the RAF, for their courage in face of an overwhelming onslaught by the German air force. Vera Lynn was a shining example of that courage and I have a lot of her music on You Tube.

A salute to the brave, the proud soldiers who saw the free world through those dark times. Both those who were able to see the fruits of their labors, and those who did not make it home. May they be remembered in the hearts of all people to come, and let their sacrifice never be forgotten.

I just had to look this up because it was my late parent's "special song" together. My mother played the piano in the living room, and everytime she played "When I grow too old too dream" my father would come running down the stairs every single time. He'd sit on the piano bench, put his arm around my mom and sing the song with her. I used to pray that I'd find that kind of love my parent's had

My mother used to sing this to me at bedtime as her mother sang it to her. I sing it every night to my girls aged 7 and they sing along with me before they close their eyes. It's so beautiful. Everyone loves Vera.

My eyes are so wet from crying I can't see my computer screen,,, hehehe,,,, such courage those flyers and soldiers had! And my heart aches for those soldiers who didn't make it,,, and their lovers, and wives, who would never see their men again. My God,, what incredible, painful sacrifices they all made. I can hardly type this I'm in tears. We should all be humbled to our knees, seriously! We must stop being selfish, and self-centered,,, because none of us today, would be as willing to go to our deaths,, as the Greatest Generation so willingly did,,,, for us.

My dear Mother would sing this while knitting sitting by the fireside & I used to love her voice so gentle and loving ❤ happy memories❤

Love you vera Lynn all about the greatest generation that ever lived

What a voicevd. How I envy the angels to listen to this great lady. Grow older but don' t grow old.

This song is beautiful. My Nana sang it to all her grandchildren as babies so at her funeral we played it as out final goodbye ❤️

God bless the Brits and company for keeping us safe. What heroes - REAL HEROES. Thank you all veterans reading this. This is gorgeous and surreal to watch. Her voice flows like the water. 5* and thanks.

Dame Vera Lynn after 98 years still hasn't grown too old to dream. Amazing.

"Never in the field of human conflict has so much been owed by so many to so few" ---Prime Minister Churchill. Beautiful song.

RIP sweet Vera! You exemplified the best of your generation and that troubling time.

My psrents loved that song.. My dad, uncles and aunts all served in the British military 4 out of 5 in the RAF.. God bless them

I cannot think of these men, and women too, and not get tears in my eyes. Their bravery is so admirable! Everyone who lives will die, but those who perished in this great cause cheated death and became immortal. May they always be remembered.

I hadn't thought of this in years. My grandmother used to sing this when I was a kid. According to my Mom Grandma sang Vera Lynn covers at the USO at Maxwell US Army Air Corps base in Montgomery Alabama during WWII. Thanks for a good memory and some great songs by a great lady, Vera Lynn.

R I P dame Vera lynn you can finally have a nice long dream now untill we meet again 💖👍

The chorus in the background were WW2 veterans at one of the many re-union concerts by lovely Vera long before she had the honor of Dame bestowed upon her. One of the few honors that were truly earned.

Just love this lady...her voice...her songs...and what she did for the troops during WW!!. She is a national treasure! I play her songs at my performances in senior communities and they love it!!! #DeAnnaattheKeys

Happy 99th birthday Vera Lynn! Still not too old to dream!

Respect to all the brave young men who fought in the Battle of Britain, the Brits, Canadians and the Polish pilots who did what had to be done.

The first time I heard this song, the tears ran down my cheeks. Maybe I was thinking about my mom. It is really beautiful. I wish they wrote songs like this today. We can't go back to that time, but I wish we could go back to this music.

Nothing better then Music from the thirties and forties.

Dame Vera Lynn, now 97 years old is timeless and a national treasure. The accompanying film with this lovely song is just perfect. Hopefully we are never too old to dream and that precious memories will always keep us going.

Love all your songs Dame Vera Lynn you certainly earned your WINGS as the FORCES FAVOURITE and long may you reign with the FORCES FAVOURITE TITLE. I have always loved all your songs with my most favourite being WE'LL MEET AGAIN. From your fan in South Africa .

MY father was a Catalina Flying Boat navigator in World War 2, and they loved listening to Vera Lynn, and he introduced us to her songs when we were kids. My sister and I were about 5 years old, now we're nearly 50 and we still love listening to the songs. Our father passed away in 2001 and our mother in 2006, but we still have Dame Vera Lynn's tapes. Thank you for these songs of memory.

Happy Birthday Vera Lynn. Thank you for so much. Your music is will forever be timeless. Cheers, A Proud Canadian

What a beautiful song. Amazing film footage. This was my parents and aunt and uncles generation. God bless them all who served and sacrificed.

I am 82 my mum used to sing this to me when I was small. Lovely memories.

Beautifully done by Ours & The Forces Sweet Heart, Dame Vera Lynn, God Bless You 'Darling' and may You Rest in Peace, XX

A wonderful song by the forces sweetheart, and still remembered for her life serving Britain and our Commonwealth. It brings tears to my eyes every time I hear this song. Wonderful memories of loved ones..God bless Vera Lynn..Peace and Love.

I'm only sixteen years old and I can appreciate her beautiful voice. How she captures her emotions in the song. I love her with all my heart she inspires me to write the love stories that run through my mind. What artist don't have today is originality, emotion in their work, and actual talent. Vera has it all and more, these artists today hide the fact that they cant sing with flashy lights and voice changers. But, Vera is real, her and billie holiday.

Sooo Touching...Men fighting for true Love of home & country!!! Everyone holding too each other in faith & prayer...Music of this time comforted...timeless!!

Not only is this a superb tribute to the veterans of the Second World War but it is also a great tribute to the Greatest Generation as a whole. People are right when they say America is not the same America. We have too much body and not enough soul. I often wonder what it would be like to travel back in time to the war years in my hometown. I would bet money that where I live there would have been a farm. I salute the fallen, especially those who never crossed the beaches and never landed. God bless them and the veterans who lived through it as well as the ones who still live today. May we never grow too old to dream.

My mother sang this to me when I was little. Thank you for the memories

My gran used to sing this when I was little. I'm now 51 and had she been alive would have been 107. To hear this reminds me of her

Even after death, shes never too old to dream ❤ we miss you Vera

My parents were married in 1937, this was their song by another singer. Miss them both, very much!

I saw this machines when I was a boy. Never forget it. It is always with me;

A beautiful and poignant song. VE day, in lockdown. Feeling grateful for so many blessings! 🌈💓

God bless all the men and women who gave there lives we all could live my mother was a war bride i was born in lancashire but now live in st louis mo i come over still a lot i hate to see how england has changed over the yrs the u s is the same way im sorry to say i always tell people that im english first i still have relatives left over there ill be come over on julu 9 and staying until aug 13 this time we will be seeing as much as we can as my wife and i are in our middle 60

A wonderful, Real Lady, there could never be anyone like her. My Father knew her as a little girl. My late Husband who was in the RAF in the Burma Campaign, like them all, thought ther World of her. I was born after the War and remember Dame Vera Lynn as so highly regarded and rightly so.

I am 58 yrs old and my nana used to love this song. She lost her beloved husband in a traffic accident in 1938 when he was only 38 yrs old and never got over it. Love her xx

you are never too old to dream......even though those dreams make you sad and wishing to go back to old times!!!!

The juxtaposition of these film clips with this music is emotionally tremendous! One of the most moving tribute to those who fought and lived during World War Two.

I'm 46 and I love this music brave lads I've so much respect for veterans shame on this generation of kids

My nana’s favourite song was the anniversary waltz by dame Vera Lynn, some of my favourite memories of her are her singing and dancing to it in the kitchen.

Wonderful song! R.I.P Old girl!

Anna-Marie, How intensely moving and appropriate. Amazing how music or a song so poignant and rooted in time like this can transform a moment - even one so sad as the loss of a loved one. I could not imagine a more heartbreaking and yet strangely life-affirming piece of music to play out the life of a survvivor of that era.

@patrickburnsmusic from a "limey" here in uk thank you for those kind words for my fellow countryman,make no mistake they where the finest generation from both our countries the debt we owe can never be repaid,americans always welcome in my home

again thanks to all who have served and are now serving may God bless you all there always will be an England God willing

Thank you George deVailier, so much...

Thank you so much for posting. Some of our so-called screaming young stars should listen to this great lady and learn how to sing.

Why does this make me cry?

I used to sing this song with my mother when she played the piano. My Dad would sit and listen to us. Now, my husband are To Old to Dream and I still love that song.

This song brings a tear to my eye.

A very special voice bringing joy and happiness to many throughout the years ❤️.

I'm 71 today... was raised on Miss Lynn's songs... reminds me of my mom and makes me cry every time

1969 film. Brilliant film, always been a favorite of mine.

This was my mum's favorite song.

so sorry for your loss. Lee will always be with you. keep listenint to this song and he will be right by your side. God Bless

I used to play this on my flute when I was busking on the London Underground many years ago. One day, a woman came up to me and thanked me for playing it, saying it reminded her of her mother.

YOU LIVE IN OUR HEARTS 💕 FOREVER Sweet Vera !!!

My mum and dad loved this x he would sing this to my mum x he never cared for Vera Lynne he preferred Ann Shelton x

Young men always sally forth to defend society, but only rarely do they get the golden voice of Vera Lynn along the way.

This touches a weird felling, like I knew her for years even though, I know her for a day

We owe these guys a big debt of gratitude.

@kitkat6026 That brings tears to my eyes. Bless your Mum:) My dad just passed away in September. He was 88. He would of loved hearing this again

Very Good, Crestfilms! Your Video was very touching. Whenever I hear a Rolls Royce Merlin and Vera Lynn at the same time I get teary eyed! My Dad played darts with Vera Lynn when he was on leave, at a pub in England! Although he was in the army,he always talked about Spitfires!

A fine song for someone who survived the war years, and only a handful of memories. Powerful music from WW 2. Thank you. r.

What a beautiful song.

My mother sang this song, was a young woman back in the war years.

.My parents married during the war I was adopted long after that child died in the Blitz my adoptive father won the George Cross for the fire brigade I know it's old fashioned I know thank you again Vera Lynn the millions and millions of people's lives basically I think you saved some thank you from the bottom of my heart as long as I live even though I wasn't there thank you thank you thank you no more commits necessary thank you that's all

Dame Vera ... the voice of a generation. Yes! There will always be an England !! Thanks for this one , Dave

Respect to those and those days... we owe it all you... Thank you.

Oh the memories here! Love her singing and the songs mean so much! ❤️🙏🙏🙏

Do not listen to this when you're heartbroken. :'(

Played this song at my 88 yr old fathers funeral this last Saturday. My mother cried. Her father used to sing her this song when she was a child. Thank you for posting.

My brother Earl and his best friend John (Red) Campbell were in the 'Eagle Squadrons' Kirton-in-Lindsey UK 1941.They flew Hurricanes. We remember Vera Lynn especially 'We'll meet again'. Red is still going strong in Arizona. Best regards Lee Mason Aloha Oregon

Never had so many owed so few so plenty. Winston Churchil

God bless the brave men and women who gave their all for us. Bless my darling dad who fought for our freedom. My thoughts are with everyone who has loved and lost their dear ones, and who else to remember them with, but Dame Vera lynn. Wonderful !!

Thanks for the memories of lost loves--always in my heart. Sentimental 50's

Can barely see to write this as I have so many tears. Absolutely beautiful
