This can also be viewed with the thought every man is my brother. We must try to carry each other down this long road called life.

@Frank-pe9pk 4 года назад

In 1970 on American radio in Vietnam this was the most requested song it meant a lot to us. God rest brothers

@johnshannon9656 5 лет назад

This song is about the love we all should have for one another.

@randyhodges8782 5 лет назад

I admit I am a little drunk, but I am crying right now.The 60's were a beautiful time, and I feel a little sorry for anyone that missed it. Hard to see how we got from there to here.

@pegizering4142 4 года назад

I don't even need to be drunk to become emotional. I heard it's one of the top funeral songs and all people need to hear is the first note to have tears brought to there eyes.

@DreamsSketcher 4 года назад

We need more of this attitude in the world RIGHT NOW, more than ever. Less selfishness. Thought for our fellow man.

@edwardallen4051 5 лет назад

We often hold up Stairway to Heaven And Bohemian Rhapsody as timeless all time greats, this song falls into the same category for me. Wonderful vocals from Allan Clarke.

@Mr54nomore 5 лет назад

The song is about "The Boys Town Statue" that still stands today at the all boys institution known as [Boys Town] for orphan boys in the state of Nebraska U.S. The story goes...When a priest came upon a boy carrying another boy who was handicap... The priest asked the boy. Can I carry him for you? The boy replied. "No He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother." True story...

@Veldtian1 4 года назад

shit..

@mariavictoriasalita2908 3 года назад

Wow! A couple of Bible verses would be also come to mind with this song like in Galatians 6:2, wherein we must carry one another's burden. Such a beautiful and powerful song.

@RTSOB1 4 года назад

If there is some dispute about the phrase from which the title is taken, I think I can help. As a couple of of you have already noted, there is a statue which stands at the entrance to Boys Town in Nebraska (it's depicted in the video at 2:31) with the same phrase carved into it's base. I could see it daily over 60 years ago; I'm a Boys Town graduate. Interesting note, by the way...Boys Town now admits girls...sixty years too late for me. C'est la vie.

@josephwillmann4880 2 года назад

Dennis Bateman my brother was also and I have the statue and he took my other brother and sister and I on a tour of Boys Town he was there when Johnny Rogers was there and went on to play for Nebraska and the NFL my brother went to serve in the Army as a MP and was a police officer for 40 years I also served in the Army and was a MP and served for 22 years and was a police officer too I was in a children's home at the time .my brother was BOYS TOWN

@EgbertWilliams 5 лет назад

Always heard that phrase was about Boys Town. "He ain't heavy, Father. He's my brother." From a boy who used to carry his crippled brother up and down the stairs.

@donnagutierrez5740 5 лет назад

At the time this song came out it was the 60's I always thought it meant that your brother is your fellow man. No matter who you are ,helping each other is a privilege and helps you.

I always ask myself why can't people write songs like this anymore? Some people say writers don't have the heart and soul to express their love for other people. Thank god for RU-vid!

@lencycler1 4 года назад

one of my top five songs when I just want to cry...

@Mr54nomore 5 лет назад

To add to my earlier comments...The lyricist for this beautiful song is Bob Russell. It was to be the last song he would ever write. The music was written by Bobby Scott 1968. The song was about a very famous stamp... called "The Boys Town Stamp." Of 2 young boys one carrying another on his back. One of the priest at Boys Town ask if he could carry the boy for him... The boy replied..."He Ain't Heavy Father He's My Brother." The rest as they say is history...Thanks for posting this gem of a song. Peace!

@johnallen869 4 года назад

@myoung6204 4 года назад

This came on the car radio one morning just after my much loved handicapped brother had died. How I completed that journey into work I'll never know. When I got to the office I cried so much I couldn't explain to my friends what was wrong. I hadn't really cried till that morning and the flood gates just opened. In spite of his difficulties he was an inspiration to us all. The only boy among four sisters and we spoilt him rotten. He was unique, never to be forgotten. X

@mariavictoriasalita2908 3 года назад

If this song's a movie, it's a sure fire tearjerker. No questions asked.

@mariavictoriasalita2908 3 года назад

I'm very sorry for your loss. He must've been an awesome brother and you love him dearly.

@Mbase-apollo 4 года назад

this reminds me of vietnam, a different time and reality, many of my brothers didn't make it back.

@burnout_2017 5 лет назад

This song holds so much truth that these times..right now..we need to hear. We are ALL brothers. Help dont hate

@mariavictoriasalita2908 3 года назад

Hate against someone is the root of killings and murders. Just as what Jesus Christ stated he who hates his brother is a murderer and will not inherit the Kingdom of God. God is love.

@CLYDOL 5 лет назад

Beautiful song ❤️

@pamelajohnson6199 4 года назад

This is referring to helping each other, one has care and empathy for others in need.

@mariavictoriasalita2908 3 года назад

Just as what's written in Romans 14:1 and Romans 15:1 which states bearing the failings or weaknesses of the weak and not resorting to dispute and argument since the other is strong enough to help the weak.

@junglejim5785 3 года назад

My brother sure carried me on his back. Thank you my dear brother. We have been through alot.

@prischm5462 4 года назад

I lost my brother 3 years ago from a ruptured aortic aneurysm. He was my older brother and he looked after me many times in my youth. He once saved me from drowning in a river near our house. He looked after me. My mother nearly died from an aortic aneurysm years after. She did not die but she had a series of strokes after her operation. She was not quite the same person afterwards and over the next ten years it got worse. It is a terrible thing to see your mother go downhill from dementia. After my brother died, I got tested and found out that I too had an aneurysm. I had open heart surgery in 2017 to repair it. If it weren't for my brother's death I doubt that I would have gotten tested at all. I am grateful to be alive, but I regret that my brother had to pass in order to warn me.

@prischm5462 4 года назад

@@wpollock1 Thank you! I had open heart surgery when I was 12 years old, due to a congenital aortic stenosis. So, I already had a history. After my brother died I got my aortic valve replaced with a bovine valve and had most of my aorta replaced. Afterwards, they said the base of my aorta had enlarged since the surgery. I'm being checked every six months but I am about 2 mm from needing a third surgery. Take care of yourself and keep your appointments!

James Wells, Moderator of the United Free Church of Scotland, tells the story of a little girl carrying a big baby boy in his 1884 book The Parables of Jesus. Seeing her struggling, someone asked if she wasn't tired. With surprise she replied: "No, he's not heavy; he's my brother."

@robertasirgutz8397 4 года назад

Just found you, and subscribed. The "brother" in the collective sense. Beautiful, no?

@dougwill8850 2 года назад

She's has it correct. The song can be taken many ways but the writer met a girl (somewhere) carrying her brother and said " he ain't heavy he's my brother ". I certainly see it in other ways also. That's the genius of songwriters. It's magical.

@patty9369 4 года назад

Lol. "Sometimes I'd even drop them." I was that chubby baby, and I didn't mind, I loved to be lifted! My grandpa used to say "one two three jump" in order to lift me after I begged him to. The poor man. What a sweet guy. Tho he never dropped me, just set me down pretty quickly. My sibs weren't so gentle, tho. Good times.

@jamesmonteverde5538 4 года назад

This song is about overcoming. Perfect for the late 1960's, and what we are all going through right now.

@SSArcher11 3 года назад

I believe the title derives from a story from Boy's Town when a boy was asked about a smaller boy he was carrying. "He ain't heavy, Father, he's my brother."

@BearClanMan1970 4 года назад

This is based on the reaction of a mother telling one son to not carry the other on his back because he is heavy and the older brother says to his mother, "He ain't heavy, he's my brother." The strongest among us carry others readily. Mitakuye oyasin ~ we all related / all my relations.

@yv2929 5 лет назад

This cover was a hit in 1969. The origin of the title line is traced to 1884, James Wells in his book 'The Parables of Jesus' telling of a little girl struggling while carrying a big baby boy and replying "No, he's not heavy, he's my brother" when someone asked if she was tired 👣 Enjoyed your reaction Enoma - this song moves one to recall all those who have carried us 🎎

@johnandrews3151 5 лет назад

Neil Diamond also had a hit with this song, among many others.

@MisterWondrous 2 года назад

Very insightful about the lack of unconditional love between mates. The song is also a case for breaking rules. I bet the song would not be nearly as famous if it had been called "He Isn't Heavy, He's My Brother". Ain't ain't even a word, some people say. :) We need this song, and this sentiment...now, more than ever. Dhanyavaad!

@patty9369 4 года назад

Wow. That was pretty. I guess that's why we listened to it so much way back when. Just lovely.

@sergiomattos109 4 года назад

@mariavictoriasalita2908 3 года назад

This song reminds me of a couple of Bible verses, one of them is in Galatians 6:2 wherein we must bear one another's burden. This song has such a strong message wherein we must love one another and help each other, even our bitterest enemies. If we throw away hatred which by the way is the very root of killing our fellowmen, the world will be a nice place to live in- for the meantime. Because there is paradise where everyone will be happy for eternity. Love and peace to all.

@vincenthewlett4329 4 года назад

the title is based on a vietnam monument in america of a soldier carrying a injured buddy, at the base is carved the words " he aint heavy hes my brother"

@krisfox3537 2 года назад

Vietnam war. Soldiers helping injured brothers off the battle field is what I think. But I believe it is a song older than that. It's about brothers helping brothers.

@skipbellon4342 4 года назад

I would love to explain to my brother the feelings and memories that are expressed in this song. We could have had a song in life that brought us happiness when we heard it, instead of the loneliness that it brings for two only-childs.

@KingOfErehwon 4 года назад

I have posted this on a couple of other RU-vid pages, so please allow me to post it here: I realize that the phrase, "He ain't heavy, he's my brother", came from the Boy's Town monument. But I want to offer a slightly different take: This song was during the Vietnam War. There was a lot of racial tension during that time of this song and it was tearing our country apart. In a past century, blacks were referred to as "the white man's burden." The Hollies were in tune with that tension and were trying to say that we need to change our ways and we need a mental reset. The Boy's Town inscription may have been the inspiration, but I suggest that the song resonated because of its call to racial harmony: Blacks aren't any burden -- and not heavy -- at all. They are our brothers. This is a song calling to mend the racial divide (and expanded its interpretation to all races) -- a feeling that was integral to the "peace, love & understanding" mantra of us younger, boomers at that time. (If you are a member of The Hollies who disagrees, please tell me otherwise.) As a side note, sociologists and economists now realize that through the wage and housing discrimination that led to that 60's tension, and ultimately created the permanent black underclass in so many communities across the USA today, it was actually we whites that were really the black man's burden. Yes, it's a long, long road...
