The more I hear this the more it becomes one of my 'favourites'. How Stephan has grown though. It doesnt seem all that long agao he was one of the small people, now he's one of the big people, look at the other boys around him. But his voice is truly amazing now. And when you listen to Mini James on this song wow! He'll be soooooooo good soon. Close your eyes and listen.......... Aren't we lucky to have such talent singing for us? Not just those two but all the boys of course. I have onyl one complaint - why couldnt I sing like that when I was their age? Or now come to that!

Yes it's one of my favourites as well. Not only because it sounds great but also because it has so much to say and really does its own meaning justice by sounding so lovely

You know, it is one of my daydream wishes to sing this with Ralph... I sometimes imagine meeting him after a concert, like when he came out of the Playhouse in Epsom, and I could sing the song with him then... Not to make the most beautiful rendition ever but just to share this wonderful piece of music... Never gonna happen... but daydreaming is nice

At work, when things get a little tough, I often find myself daydreaming whilst whistling some Libera

It helps to ease the moment

what a great thought you both have. me I'm totally tone deaf and sing flat. (Did win 2nd prize senior boys solo, but that was in 1963!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Other entrants must've been worse?)
A 'fans' dream though isnt it to sing with our wonderful Libera?

@Paul: I do that too, all the time
@kay: That's so cool that you won that!

Do you remember what you sang? I'm sure you did really well.
This is getting off topic although maybe not - it's about the song of life - "then another lends a tune as their voices now combine"

I remember that my sister played it, when I am acting mad because of a problem

... While listening to it, I think and think and the result is,,, I cried for 2 hours:!: It brightens me up..

There must have been quite a lot of emotion inside of you that needed to get out. Libera's music can touch us on so many levels. And can be healing, I am convinced of that.

You're so right

. Libera's music always cheer us up whenever we're down or upset about our problems.

when Ralph isn't singing yet, I told my sister that it wouldn't work to cheer me up or even cool me down, but

it worked!!! Libera are really angels... and Song of life has a wonderful message.

jols, i would think we all here agree that if this song has 'helped' you then the boys efforts are much more than songs, more patterens for life. i hope this song continues to count amogst your favorites

Yeah, it is one of my favorite, its gives me a wonderful, unexplained feeling whenever I hear it... My sister and I actually sung it infront of our mom, and the result is, she also love it because of the message and the harmony. She also requested us to sing it infront of audiences for them to learn about the message.
