Such a poignant song that also transports me back to fond memories of music lessons on school. The whole class would join in with sing this..

It's October 2019. I've been in London since 1983 . I've never seen so many homeless English men. There's a war going on that nobody knew was happening. Hidden in plain sight. The invisible men. How many cheques are you away from a doorway?

Who on Earth would have the gall to give this a thumbs down. It just shows us where the problem lies.

I'm from London and believe me, this song is so true. How is it possible that the wealthiest country on the planet allows its citizens to live on the streets?

If this great Historical song doesn't move you then I feel sad for you,

The children in this video don´t have to go on the street. I will pay for them.
Okay now i realise, that the Video is from 2009. But there must be other children, that need som help. I want to contribute to some of those children. It´s just very important, that i know that the money is going to the children.

I have loved this song for more years than I can remember. Always brings tears to my eyes. So many of us do not realise how lucky we are having a roof over our heads, food in the cupboard, water and a comfortable bed to sleep in. Food for thought always when we listen to this.

I walked the streets in London with my mother when we got evicted in the middle of the night we stopped on a bridge in Cheswick I went to sleep straight away then my mother said we better keep walking it was freezing cold when the tube started running we got on the train we went to sleep and before we knew it we were at the end of the line.

This song always reminds me of sleeping in abandoned cars and behind shops as a youngster with home problems feeling scared , hungry and vulnerable.
Life is good now , married with lovely home , good job and nice things .
You never forget though , still pinch myself occasionally because could of been a very different story .
Thanks Ralph

This song, brought me back to 1991, when I was living homeless in London, december 1990 to fevruary 1991, in the winter time. I felt in my own flesh how tough is being homeless, and how strong I was to pass through such harsh moments.

Loneliness is a beast that will follow you and demonise until you feel less than human. It's a shame that we still have hopelessness today when we have so much.

Sad that this song is still accurate in 2020 !. Humans can put a man on the moon, but it seems we cannot solve inequality and injustice.

A nation is judged by how it treats it's most vulnerable

Been homeless in London during the winter back in the early 70s.....Nothing fun or romantic about it, lots of hatred and violence interspersed by VERY occasional acts of kindness. Oh and God bless the Salvation Army, I am not a religious person but these people really try to help.

I remember the old girl , he is talking about. I saw her in the early 70's round south Ken, London. I now do street photography & nothing has changed.
