Interesting fact: the drummer from ‘Matrimony’ was a man called Andy White, who is best known and remembered for being the drummer who played on the first Beatles record, ‘Love Me Do’.
Wow! Great piece of trivia from the legendary man. Thank you dear Gilbert for your music!
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷❤️❤️
I love this one Gilbert , you look so young on here....you said a while back I could contact on your WhatsApp , but I couldn't find you. Had on Whats in a kiss earlier today....your voice is just so sublime , makes me think of my childhood and being happy 😊...always makes me smile 😁 xx
Actually some black bloke insists he did all the drumming on the first 4 albums? I watched a 4 hour documentry exposing the Beatles as frauds.
Love You 🌸 Once everything that calls for attention is stripped away. Once I myself is stripped away from all this banter of attention through all my years of differing focus as I advance in years of irrigating this place with the totality of my mitt mark. The one that is left to supersede in the cosmic equation. My finest and sacred producing’s are unequivocally the children of my loins. That’s the richest of achievements any being’s purpose can be defined by. Why should my folly of focus be so fragile as to ever allow this truth be lessened with any wakens of any fashion of any day of any way? The why of this is the minds poison of which every suffering gains root . It’s diss- allusion is like a maze once you enter you hardly can be freed of. Till your dusk has arrived and dust you dissolve as promise from the cosmic blessings of a free fresh opening for the footprint of man once again. R.P.
The lamp on the piano was my response to Liberace, who always used to place a candelabra on his grand piano. I also love those coat stands. Just somewhere to hang my coat up whilst I’m singing.... I once did a TV show, and to get to the studio I took my own coat stand on the tube!
Excuse me, is this film also an official video?「Alone again(naturally)」 kzhead.info/sun/gL5xht2PrIeaf2w/bejne.html
Awesome!
Thank you sir thanks for the memories...
You talk about coat stands, but I am not alone I am sure when I say that you were instrumental in forging my moral compass with Nothing Rhymed. For that, I thank you.
Einfach nur schön
You know, Gilbert was a genius singer songwriter... he was a favourite of ours in the 70's when we were teens... every song was brilliant... he was way ahead of his time, and should have become a global superstar...
..He was at least 10 years befor his time and the songs maybe more...its only one man to can compere and thats Leonard Cohen .
Hello everyone, thank-you for tuning in to watch the HD premier of 'Matrimony'. So what I love about this song, is that while it was never released as a single, it has become almost a signature tune for me. You only have to witness the reaction it receives at concerts! And of course, being a Latin based song, there’s no denying Latin never dates. It's current, contemporary, and a key factor... danceable!! It's nice to think it has played it's part in many a wedding over the years
Fantastic to see these clips digitally restored - keep them coming :-) Would love to see a re-broadcast of some of the BBC footage and concerts
Hi Gilbert! Matrimony was a charttoppa here in Norway in 1972. Love you an your songs! Are you coming to Norway this autumn?
Really wonderful and distinctive bridge, as always from you.
Brilliant Gilbert. Looking forward to seeing you in Cork next year.
'Matrimony' was a Top5-song in The Netherlands, July 1972, and we'll never forget you performing it in the Grand Gala du Disque Populaire, February 25, 1972!!
To see this video now in HD is an amazing experience. It looks incredible, and I’ll be sure to use this on the big screen at my concerts in the future! Thank you @BMGUK for bringing this video to life , and thank-you to everyone for joinng me today to watch it
Why on earth did they put you on a river's quay?!
@@RWillemM Probably because of the superb bridge in the melody of this song!
Don’t forget the girls in their tank tops

hi gilbert , just a big thank you for your music, my mother is 87 and is still playing your cassettes, i have to dance for her, we love it,
This man wrote many songs that stand head and shoulders with any of the greats, he's a songwriting genius!.
What a magnificent song. Just class. The writing, the musicianship, the performance. Respect. Real respect
Damn this is beautiful and extremely catchy. Anyone else got on this repeat all day? Thanks Gilbert!
I’m a songwriter and I’ve been trying to write like this for years, the guy is a genius.
Catchy is a very apt word to describe that number...
When the Beatles finished, thank God Gilbert came along. I love this song. I first met him in 1971 at church in Walton on Thames, what a humble, lovely feller. Still go and see him in concert every year, and what a conceft he puts on. He always stays behind and meets every audience member queuing up to see him, what a gent, what a talent. My favourite singer/song writer. Kelvin.
Under-rated and Under- appreciated musician.
Over 50 years ago an 18 year old girl and a 20 year old man rushed around their flat getting ready to go to the registry office for their wedding ceremony at 9'15 on a cold December morning. This song played on the radio making them laugh and easing the tension. They did indeed turn up like two frozen peas! Ray, you're still in their lives because every time they hear this song the memories of that happy morning floods back!
Wonderful❤
What a wonderful, evocative story. It's just come to life in my head with your tale and this song, words and tune. How utterly lovely
thank you
His songs always make me smile ☺
I'm 56.always liked this song.thank you.
Something that begins with "M" and ends in "alas" (a lass?) Priceless lyric! People just don't write lyrics like that anymore, more's the pity.
Hi Gilbert. I love your songs. The first Time that i Heard you was With your compsition whats in a kiss. The i was a teenager. Now i am 55 years AND even o listen to yours . Get down, Claire.i love them. Greetings AND Congratulations for all. Thanks Mr o'ssullivan
First I'm hearing this song today. Gilbert, you are a class act!
This song warms the cockles of my heart! Takes me back to a place in time…. ❤ he was exceptional music artist
This is my pick me up song, What a class tune thank you Gilbert 😊 👏
My dad used to play the entire Album back to 1975...I was such a very young French lad of 8 years old starting playing piano...but this groove always stuck in my head...Thanks Dad for your great taste of music...
Back in 2009 my youngest Daughter Clair married her sweetheart Dean and yes I as her proud Dad gave her away. At the night do Clair and me took to the dance floor to dance to no other but Gilbert O'Sullivan and Matrimony a moment i will cherish forever. We've both had the pleasure of seeing Gilbert in concert a number of times and had the pleasure of meeting him afterwards too. The guy is a gentleman and a true songwriting genius! Matrimony will always be a song close to both of our hearts.
If your looking for inspiration.Then look no further.Gilbert was and still is the masterclass in songwriting.
Nice one Gilbert. I'm 62. We had a kitchen disco, and your music gave us joy. Naturally.
Another soundtrack to my life. Bought your first album while on holiday in Spain. Epic!
Just makes me happy
this man is a genius.
Merci Mr O' Sullivan d'avoir bercé mon enfance avec ces mélodies intemporelles
Fantastic song. You rarely see songwriting of this calibre anymore, with the marriage of a catchy melody to intelligent and witty lyrics. God bless you, Ray.
Hello ,how are you doing,i will like us to be friends and get to know about each other

Epic song from a well deserved legend..

Big love to Gilbert, amazing guy
Truly brilliant song writer
Brilliant, there should be an award for making “frozen peas” work in a song. I had not heard this before, and I am excited to think that there are more gems like this one out there. Thanks very much for posting this.
Hmmm..allways thought it was bees...:) But there you go...!
My grandad loved this man and his music it’s been 12 years now he has gone but hearing this he is right next to me listening along thank you ❤️
Best singer and song writer . Love all his songs .bring back the 1970s. A true legend. Keep up the good work gilbert.
Childhood memories. Brilliant. Today's music can't hold a candle to this.
My mum had this on what you would nowadays call a repeat loop. The lyrics are as ever top notch. Gilbert kissed the Blarney Stone. I love the James Last’eske orchestration.
Loved this in the 70’s and love it now! Brings back great memories! Thank you
You are a great person Gilbert. i love your music since i heard it first as a child, i'm 62 now and still love your songs, you are a hero :)
He deserves a medal
love ALL your songs Gilbert. reminds me of my youth! What a great song writer you are!
Great !!! Here in Brazil We love the songs from Gilbert.
Thank you, Mr.Gilbert O‘Sullivan,great song & video!!!🎼🎤🌹🎵🎹🎶❤️
I gave this song (on an LP) to my brother at his wedding (years ago.) Love it still. Thank you Gilbert.
Gilbert O'Sullivan is one of the all time greats as singer and songwriter. So many great tunes. Many of his best tunes are simply flawless including this one.
Love Gilbert O sullivan.Me and my mom loved the early tunes and i carried on loving his music mixed with story telling.My favourite song of all time os Alone again naturally.
2:08 This is my favorite part ❤❤❤❤❤
Ireland's most under rated songwriter.
Hola. Muy lindos recuerdos de Gilbert O'Sullivan. Yo tenía 27 años cuando compre los vinilos 45" (disco chico) de Alone Again (Naturally), Clair y Get Down. Una amiga de aquel tiempo le gustaba la canción "Clair" y vivía en otra ciudad. Yo viaje para regalarle el disco...Quede como un Rey. Toda su familia me quiso mucho...Aunque usted no lo crea, todavía tengo esos 3 discos (El que regale, lo compre de nuevo)...Todavía tienen el aromas de aquel tiempo...Gilbert O'Sullivan tiene actualmente 74 años y yo tengo 75 años...Él todavía tiene pelo y largo y yo estoy calvo (Pelado) ja,ja,ja. Amigo, me hizo llorar un poco. Saludos desde Chile.
The summer that I was 19 yrs old I played Gilbert's album "Himself" over & over....could not get enough of his voice....the very 1st time I heard "Alone Again Naturally" on the radio I thought it was Paul McCartney singing, to me they had very similar tones....anyway I have many of Gilbert's albums & cds....he is wonderful : ))))))))
I also find there's a similarity with what Macca sung at the time. Similarities and quality.
@@fireatheart Yes, so very true : )
Gilbert is a talented genius!
Absolute genius!
Les années bonheur les années d’insouciance 🌺
Super-groovy song to this day. There should be a GO'S opera with all the great man's songs therein.
What a fun song. It had me moving right along. I don't believe I've ever heard it before. Thank you for turning me onto it.
It is never late if happiness is good!
Great songwriter! ❤️
Absolute Classic album...up there with all the greats! I completely wore out the needle with this gem. Huge congrats Gilbert!
Supers souvenirs, quel bonheur
All i can Gilbert is that your songs are like a fine wine just gets better with age thanks for the good memories...
national treasure love this man legend
I've always loved this song. Hearing it again just makes you want to dance. There I was, doing the samba around the kitchen ........ well in my head I was anyway.
Grattis på 75 årsdagen Gilbert O`Sullivan :D
You and me are all that matter, disregard the rest! Trust your soon-to-be Old Man, he knows what is best!
I love your music. So much. I used your greatest hits to train for the London Marathon. Great memories. Good luck Gilbert. Your the best.
a very happy song
I just love this song so much..it has such a groovy tune to it ...I still play all your records here in rural western australia..and I am so glad I grew up listening to your wonderful music in the 70s.
When i was young and heard this song for the first time i thought it was Paul Macca. Both for the voice and the songwriting.
The one and only everymans poet great singer songwriter love you since i was a kid nearly sixty now still love you xx
Un clásico, saludos desde Venezuela!!!
I've been a fan if this bloke since I was very young. 1st 45 I ever bought was "Alone Again (Naturally).
Musical Genius love Filbert O’Sullivan. Thankyou 💙🦢💙
Always a beautiful catchy dancy tune with O'Sullivan's inimitable voice making it a memorable classic of its era and beyond!
👍quel bonheur de redécouvrir ces pépites musicales, quel talent🐱
As for the video.... I really have no recollection of this filming! It was part of so much promo I was doing for ‘Himself’ that I can’t remember any details... But there I am wearing my original outfit. G sweater, cap and boots. A look I really liked, but one that was frowned on by critics in the UK. But in countries like Holland, they loved it!
We hielden er zeker van!! Èn nog steeds.
Hi I love your music, I am a Lyricist from UK, I'd love to show you 1..
I suppose your management liked the 'bridge' in this song so much (like I do; i.c. it's superb) that they put you on a quay near London Bridge to shoot this video... Love the song and will never forget you performing it at Dutch Grand Gala du Disque Populaire, February 25, 1972!!
I have a sealed LP of Himself. I love the album. The songs and the look we're so unique and I never forget a note
"Anytime" video please 💗
Dam you Simon Mayo for playing this on greatest hits radio yesterday, haven't heard it in ages, now can't stop playing it, proper feel good tune.
Legend 😊
Simply beautiful!
Brilliant song
I play Gilbert’s album ‘Himself’ all the way through at least fortnightly. It’s in my top 10 favourite albums ever. The running order is perfect and it feels like Gilbert arrived fully formed even though we know he was honing his craft for years before. ‘Matrimony’ is there between ‘Permissive Twit’ and ‘Independent Air’. Then there’s ‘Susan Van Huesen’ and ‘If I Don’t Get You Back Again’ and ‘Nothing Rhymed’ and oh my it just goes on and on being brilliant. Fifty years old and still magical. Gilbert is a super talent for sure x
Our Gilbert is one of the best
I used to dance around the living room to this with my mum when I was a child. Brings back lovely memories. My mum passed away in 2018, so memories (like this song bring me) make me smile now.
Love it. Real catchy
Still the best from the 70s x
When i wasa young lad I could not hear you enough Love your music still do 65 now and only learning guitar
Such a dull day in England, I put this on and feel like the whole world lit and brightened up! Such a feel good song! :)
I loved this even more! Why am I only hearing these after all those years!
Oh Gilbert thank you 😊🙏🙏🙏I needed this today ❤️❤️many blessings ‼️
Found him by chance but very glad I'm here
Legend
