Gladys Knight - The Way We Were / Try To Remember Lyrics

My mom passed about 2 yrs ago right after Thanksgiving. This was one of her favorite songs and now... mine as well. This rendition is the finest I've ever heard. This is beyond perfect. Kudos to whoever said the flower she's holding is probably still alive!!

Perfection. It's that simple. Absolute perfection.

I love you so much xx

🌹for Gladys, the legend

With all due respect we must give credit from 3:45 onward the band was just as magnificent. They (the band) took her to the gates of heaven and she open it for all to walk to in.

1st January 2020, I’m 62 years old and this beautiful song and artist still bring a tear to my eye. Pure class.

WOW 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Eternamente bella !

Music like this touches the heart and soul.

Brava! So many treasured memories.

So much more nuance than the Barbara Streisand version....

This song belongs to Gladys. Barbara can't hold a candle to this. I've been loving Gladys for many a year

the best xxx

True artist 💖💖🙏

I think we miss our love one that is gone forever miss my mommy

Jackie Q are you listening?

Just beautiful,pure magic, one of a kind.

My hope is that this beautiful lady is happy and loved. She’s a true gift to us all❤️🌹🌷

Beautiful like the flower she's holding

As soon as I heard her sing "Can it be that it was all so simple then", All that went through my mind was hearing Raekwon saying "Started off on an island a.k. Shaolin. 😂😂😂 Wu-Tang Forever!!!! 🙌🏾 Love you Gladys!!!!❤❤

Memories...oh memories...

The best performance of this song, deeply touching.

She was so right

Why do many people turn a love for singers or actors into a personal war with eachother on who's the best! Wether it's Barbra, Aretha, Donna or Gladys, all of them were talents we don't have today, and we should feel lucky to have had them all! Let's leave color and race out of it, God given talent is a gift that was handed for all of us to enjoy!!

Legend has it, that flower is still alive today! Love you, Gladys!

Goosebumps perfect

I fall in love...

You have an amaaazing library of music, I love this song, it always makes me goosebumps and tearful, such emotion in this song. I love Barbara Streisand but Gladys Knight sings this song real good ❤️

Gladys is one of the best! She still sounds the same today!

Gladys nailed that song... period!

Absolutely timeless x

Saw this beautiful lady in concert on my 23rd wedding anniversary on 29.06.19., in Bournemouth, UK. My love for her music inherited from my Mother, and some of her songs dedicated to me by my late best friend who passed of skin cancer (aged 36). Her voice was SO AMAZING! It's power resonated throughout the entire room ! Best night ever... unforgettable!

My gracious what a beautiful arrangement! Gladys Knight and Doris Day sing this song to absolute perfection.

Simply great

This IS Chile :)

Dear God if this rendition doesn't turn you into a puddle of emotions, you need to check your pulse!

Just love Gladys knights voice. I thought Babara Streisand version was great and then I heard this. Just beautiful 🎤👌🏽. Still listening 2019. All about your memories.
"Remember the way we were".

That intro gives the song its soul.... 😌

Such an incredible rendition of one of the most beautiful, sad and sweet songs written!💗

Gladys knight, I was a teen when I started to listening your songs, and that voice, melody and rhythm, developed my feelings and touch me what love was about.
Thank you so much for that legacy!

Beautiful just  beautiful  Empress!

Godly Amazing...Chillingly Beautiful

Barbara S is great at singing this song her own way crisp clean and clear but Gladys... lets the whole Soul of music flow to the very core of SOUL.🎤🎼😍😎😏.thats Y she's the Empress of soul. U GO GURL.!

Best interpretation of this song I've ever heard. SUBLIME!

Hey, you know, everybody's talkin' about the good old days, right
Everybody, the good old days, the good old days
Well, let's talk about the good old days
Come to think of it as, as bad as we think they are
These will become the good old days for our children, hum
Why don't we, ah

Try to remember that kind of september, when
When life was slow and oh, so mellow, hum
Try to remember, and if you remember then follow

Oh, why does it seem the past is always better
We look back and think
The winters were warmer
The grass was greener
The skies were bluer
And smiles were bright

Can it be that it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line
And if we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me
Would we
Could we

Memories, like the corners of my mind
Misty watercolor memories
Of the way we were
Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were

Hahaa

Oh, can it be that it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line
And if we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, haha
Would we
Could we

Memories, may be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget
So it's the laughter we will remember
Whenever we remember
The way we were
Remember, the way we were

Se era pra fazer chorar, conseguiu!!!!

Para .i la mejor vecino de este tema

Everybody's talking about the good days...what a beautiful start to a beautiful song, can't it be that it was all so simple then, or has time Re' written every line, if we had to chance to do it all again, tell me would we could we, wow such beautiful lyrics, whenever we remember the way we were, need I go on, one of my old time classic's. 🤗

Maestro juan azua's orquestra. Great musicians that i can notice. Among them:patricio salazar. luis briceno (r.i.p) 🇨🇱 Chile

My favourite vocals; something about that voice that gets the heart so warm

What a beautiful woman ❤️

"Every corner of my mind" i remember and I will follow.... memories of the way we were... always smiles 🌹 simple but very beautiful ❤

Kind of hard to pay attention to the song when she starts by making you reminisce.

To be fair, I never wanted to be an adult. When adults would tell me these were going to be the best days of my life, I always thought _yea, no sh*t Sherlock._ My meals were cooked for me, my washing was done, I had no bills and spent most of my time playing, watching cartoons and reading comics. I could have done without the jesus crap though but thankfully I was an exceptionally smart kid and used the bible to make the case that I shouldn't go to meetings.

TL;DR - I just want to be a kid again.

soooooooooooooooooooooooo it's the laughter

Forever my Gladys!

Cried so much listening to this, every word means a whole lot!!

Gladys made this her own...sorry babs 😟

BRILLIANT.

Such a true & beautiful song 40 plus yrs later when life was simply ❤

Wow!!!!

Haunting epic voice. Everyone saying Gladys was the only good thing about the Super Bowl. She also looked amazing.

Oh I love you so much….

They better leave her alone at the Super Bowl or I'm gonna kick their asses!

Thank you Victor for posting this. A Gladys Knight Tour de Force.

What grace this lady has. This is beauty shinning from the inside-out. Beauty on both fronts...

Dear Gladys, read me bedtime stories forever...

Just wow. What a talent

Crying time .remembering the way it was

3:54 is where I die and go to heaven. That's the heart's last and first beat! I love you Gladys...

FOR YOU MOM AND DAD😇😇

Flashback

Gladys Knight. In a class all by herself.

The end Earl grant

Beautiful lady, with many beautiful songs, I was honoured to see her in Last Vegas for my 40th birthday at the Flamingo Hotel 2003 - one of the most fantastic experiences of my life ❤️

Wow you 10 years old when I was born

Simply beautiful 👌🏾

Incroyable

Silky smooth, her voice touches my heart every time I listen, there is no comparison, a beautiful lady inside and out to top it off

Murray Boycott, my Dad thanks for letting me experience great music on the cassette as we traveled to the cottage. Miss you so much.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Wonderful time with romantic song is forever

Memories are made to last, I started schooling in 70's and classic nostalgic songs were released. Everything back then were so simple and easy.

nearly 40 years old live version , no auto tune bollox , just pure class and emotion . the very best

Song is powerful, but if you’re not watching her sing this song you’re not listening to the song you need to see Miss Gladys again thanks 10

If there was a miss beautiful moment on this planet earth kudos thanks Ms Gladys

I'm listening in 2018 can't stop the tears.... but happy memories

Gladys looks like a cute little doll but has a voice that can rival the likes of Tina Turner or Dionne Warwick.  Just absolutely beautiful!

K.O d'amour !

Amazing. Song

The singer, not the song.

Wu Tang brought me here, and for that I am so grateful. Could it be that it was all so simple?

Who’s here in 2018 ??? Can it be ??? BEAUTIFUL GLADYS KNIGHT !!!!

TROP BEAU
