What a class act! I've seen that whole concert and it's magical. Here's a great performance that doesn't require 20 wildly gyrating dancers grabbing their crotches, light shows, smoke machines or lewd costumes to sell the product; just great singing and great music from a talented performer. Oh and notice there aren't hundreds of audience members holding up their smart phones blocking everyone's view (yeah, yeah I know; it's pre-phone days). Also interesting to see how respectful the audience is, at a free concert in the heart of New York City.

I haven't heard her music for years. When I ran across of it a couple days ago I could not stop listening to "Coming Around Again". On You Tube I like to Right" click on the pause button and then Left on it so that "Loop" is turned on, and then I can do what ever cleaning up in the house while it just keeps playing over and over. I can't get enough of "Coming Around Again". Glad you liked it. Have a great day.

PS: I too noticed how polite the audience was during her performance on April 2, 1995. That probably wouldn't have worked with what is going on in NYC now. What a shame.

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
I’m sorry you lost your soul mate. My wife and I are approaching 57 years together and I spend a lot of time reviewing our life together and trying to make whatever time we have left together as good as it cam be.


I'm happy for you and your Soul Mate being together for all this time. When Carol passed away from cancer and I would be at the cemetery working on keeping the grass and flowers clean I started noticing the couples that would be out walking in the evening. So many of them wouldn't be holding hands. I don't think that would happen with you and your Soul Mate or people who replied to this post here on the UHH. I hope everyone who still has their Mate always holds their hand when out walking. I would give anything just to hold her hand and hear her voice again. Glad you liked the music.

Everyone is complaining too much anymore. It usually doesn't do any good anyway. I'm going to try and make everyone feel better at least for awhile. I'm 81 now and lonely since my Wife passed away. I had forgotten about this beautiful Lady long ago and I ran across it the other day. It made me cry the first time I heard it again and I'm not ashamed to say it. Please listen to the words and feel better for yourself and others. I can't stop listening to it.

The name is "Coming Around Again". I do wish we all could stop arguing so much with each other and love each other instead.

OH, for cryin out loud, now everyone is mad at me. I don't know when they put that ad in there, just "SKIP" the ad after 5 seconds. SORRY.

People were put here for each other Walter. When I lost my husband of 56 years, I sat in a recliner in a dark room ALL day, every day, wouldn't eat or drink and came way too close to death. The lady who worked for me for 33 years found me like that, dehydrated, almost no BP, totally depressed, with Kidney failure and rushed me to the ER where a wonderful Dr stayed with me for 24 hours until I began to show some positive signs of life. I don't even remember his name but when he spoke, I thought it must be the voice of God. It boomed...it made me cry. When I cried, he said "Now you feel better. You're going to be OK. He reminded me that if it had been my time, I would have gone with him. I was in the hospital 5 days and came out well and have never felt any signs of depression since then (almost 5 years now). The loved ones we've lost would want us to be happy and healthy until our time comes.
Thank you for sharing that. So glad it made you feel better and I agree with what my father always said..."Be kind or be quiet."

Abe Lincoln once said, "People are about as happy as they make up their mind to be." So true….

It's great that you still feel that way, as do I. Fifty six years for us. And I'm sure that there are people on this forum who've been married or together even longer.

My husband's parents made it to within a couple of months of 75 years.

Which means that they married young and lived long ... kind of like Queen Elizabeth and Philip. I also assume they were happy and really in love.

Very happy and like us, they went everywhere together.
My husband was a jokester like his dad. Always had something funny to say. He often told people "I take my wife everywhere I go...to keep from kissing her goodbye." and once when I said I was a bad housekeeper, he said "she is NOT a bad housekeeper, she's just not a housekeeper at all." Remembering the funny things keep us going.

Within you, without you - George Harrison


We were talking
About the space between us all
And the people
Who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion
Never glimpse the truth, then it's far too late
When they pass away
We were talking
About the love we all could share
When we find it
To try our best to hold it there
With our love, with our love
We could save the world
If they only knew
Try to realize it's all within yourself
No one else can make you change
And to see you're really only very small
And life flows on within you and without you
We were talking
About the love that's gone so cold and the people
Who gain the world and lose their soul
They don't know
They can't see, are you one of them?
When you've seen beyond yourself
Then you may find peace of mind is waiting there
And the time will come when you see we're all one
And life flows on within you and without you

Yes, everyone loves to complain. I rarely hear anyone willing to step up to the plate and try to fix what’s wrong.
It will never happen….so I just walk away.

While your wife is not here, as each day passes we get 1 day closer to those we love.
I wish we could share the pain. Grief is the price we pay for loving someone.

The light does shine from
dawn to dusk.
Can you smell the flowers, the perfume or the musk?
I'm leaving signs all around today.
It's how you can see what you can't hear me say.
I came to you in a dream last night,
Full of Love and surrounded by light.
I asked your soul to awaken and see
That you will never really lose all of me.
I'm in the breeze, the sun that shines.
The stranger that offers words so kind.
A key, a coin, a feather too.
Continued signs I send to you. ,
Allow the air to carry all of my love,
Breathe it in,it's sent from above.
Given to you using Heaven's pure light.
Letting you know.....
Don't worry, I'm alright.
Picture me during the happy times.
Smile when I send you the penny or dime.
The roses that bloom and butterflies, too.
All of them are sent from me to you.
My soul has been lifted by heavenly wings.
Do you hear that??
It's the Angels that sing.
I'm home, I'm free, my
soul is on to a next life.
Free from the World's woes and tedious fight.
Embrace my words and know only this,
When we are done here, arrives Heavenly bliss.
And until our hands are joined again,
Know that I'm with you,
My loved ones and my friends.




Death is nothing at all.
I have only slipped away to the next room.
I am I and you are you.
Whatever we were to each other,
That, we still are.

Call me by my old familiar name.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Put no difference into your tone.
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow for .

Laugh as we always laughed
at the little jokes we enjoyed together.
Play, smile, think of me. Pray for me.
Let my name be ever the household word
that it always was.
Let it be spoken without effect.
Without the trace of a shadow on it.

Life means all that it ever meant.
It is the same that it ever was.
There is absolute unbroken continuity.
Why should I be out of mind
because I am out of sight?

I am but waiting for you.
For an interval.
Somewhere. Very near.
Just around the corner.

All is well.

Nothing is past; nothing is lost. One brief moment and all will be as it was before only better, infinitely happier and forever we will all be one together with G-D.

Henry Scott Holland
