My daughter and I used to love ❤️ listening to Incubus together. Sadly she passed away in a car accident in 2002 at age 18. I still pay tribute and love to her by listening to all of the old and new Incubus music to this day. I miss her so much, and your music keeps her alive in my heart ❤️ and keeps me going on the toughest days. So much love for your music! Thank you!
We met at In Bloom, I was sitting by a pond in Houston watching ducks, my hair was blue at the time and you came up behind me and tapped me on the shoulder, you said, sorry I’m so awkward and I didn’t mean to scare you and you reached out your hand to shake my hand and help me stand up and you said “Hi my name is Brandon, and I said, “Hello Brandon my name is Suzie, it’s nice to meet you.” And then you and your band mates played one of the best shows ever in the whole world. I had no idea I was meeting you when we met because I never saw the faces of the people in Incubus, and I also didn’t know any of your names but I had been listening to your music for years and grew up from my youth into adult hood being so inspired musically by all of your skills, and when I realized who you were I felt a little silly for not already knowing but I’m thankful too because I am glad that we met as equals and not as me trying to meet you or trying to accomplish anything. It was like a natural occurrence. You were so respectful too and made me feel like you were just like me. That’s so rare to find in someone who is as talented as you are. I hope we will meet again that way someday. 🌹 - Wanderess (Suzie)
I've been a huge Incubus/Brandon Boyd fan since Make Yourself came out! Fast forward to 2022...I was pregnant and played my little girl Aqueous Transmission often and then after I gave birth, we discovered that Brandon's version of Wild World is the ONLY thing that will consistently calm her down when she's cranky! Thank you for all the years of awesome music and for whatever magic you possess that soothes a crying, screaming baby! 😊
Brandon doesn't know it, but he and Incubus actually saved my life. The pull yourself up by the bootstraps messaging got me through the hardest time I ever experienced - being away from my son - and then ended up bonding us together . Profoundly inspirational
I listened to this original 70's Cat Stevens song because of my parents. Then, as a 90s kid my fave was Mr. Big's cover. Now, it's Brandon's version. Such a classic song.
I grew up with this song. My mom used to play this song a lot. It reminds me of her. She passed away in January. She was also a big fan of Brandon as well as me. She would have loved his version. I think he did an amazing job covering this song. And it makes me so happy. Means so much. Thank you again Brandon! Love you 🤗🎶💕
Hi Brandon, I'm 14 and my dad listens to you with every emotion he has. You are a huge part of my childhood and I just wanted to let you know. Also, the people that disliked it obviously didnt listen to it. Just wanted to let you know :) Bye 😁
Always loved that line, "It's a wild world, hard to get by just upon a smile" TRUTH! It's okay to not be okay, that's why we build within ourselves, and connect with others ❤️ Dark night of the Soul shouldn't be surpressed, it's how you eventually reach your higherself - using logic and intuition, but also processing life through feeling the rainbow of emotions.
@Pine Trees ill always be a fan. Its weird to see brandon getting old. I was 12 when i first heard make yourself. I just turned 31 last week. And its a part of my everyday life
Nice cover Brandon !! I Love All of Cat Stevens Songs, You did Amazing Covering this Song. Lol My 3rd husband give me a cd with all of Cats Songs & told me the song Trouble was me. We are no longer married now,but it was an adventure.my brother tells me marry a guy ten years younger then me , yes right bad advice. Thank You for sharing your Beautiful voice to the rest of us.
My heart was absolutely shattered when I found out they pulled Jesus Christ Superstar...I wanted to see...nay, hear Brandon Boyd's "Heaven On Their Minds" live...
Dear Brandon, it's the right song at the right time...I still like your voice so much... Take also good care! This reality is hard to withstand this times...Best greets from Germany, ♥️ Juliane
Wow I love his version and of course his unique voice. Thank you Brandon and everyone else involved in making this record happen. Looking forward to seeing you in Houston.
I’ve been listening to Brandon and incubus since the late 90’s and have followed them through the years. Just listening to his voice singing this classic brought such a smile to my face. Thank you for that Brandon.
Greetings, Brandon. I love your Art, your Solo Work as a Musician, and of course, I have always loved Incubus, too. I first heard Yusuf/Cat Stevens perform this song when I heard "Tea for the Tillerman" in 1970. I was 10 years young, and my Mom was a hippy, so we always had great music playing, music that has stuck with me throughout an entire lifetime. You did such a wonderful job with your rendition of this beloved classic, putting an energy into it that I believe only you can. Thanks very much for sharing, and helping me to re-live a happy memory, as well. I wish you many blessings, my friend.
La la la La la la La la la Now that I've lost everything to you You say you want to start something new And it's breaking my heart you're leaving Baby I'm greaving But if you want to leave take good care Hope you have a lot of nice things to wear But then a lot of things turn bad out there Oh baby baby it's a wild world It's hard to get by just upon a smile Oh baby baby it's a wild world I'll always remember you like a child girl You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do And it's breaking my heart in two 'Cause I never want to see you sad girl Don't be a bad girl But if you want leave take good care Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there But just remember there's a lot of bad everywhere Oh baby baby it's a wild world It's hard to get by just upon…
Damn this video is amazing. And Brandon's version is as Brandon as can be, so original. No sarcasm here. I absolutely love this version and the vision/editing of this video!
Thank you for this guys. Incubus and Sons of the Sea have been my soundtrack to life. All of your music has helped me tremendously through these insane times and transitions. My gratitude spills over....
damn, I've just played this vid like 10 times in a row,.. Brandon's voice never change, despite of those white hairs growing out indicating of his age...
This song is beyond important to me, childhood It mattered because I heard it a bunch from my parents, as a teen, it was a new meaning when I left home to be on my own and my dad always told me that it was a song to me. To hear my favorite artist remake it really brought tears to my eyes. Thank you Brandon 💚🤟🏼
One of my favorite old songs from Cat Stevens..Great cover Brandon, love it!...Next you must do a cover on Moonshadow, another Cat Steven song...(love the Moon)! Keep finding old songs from the past to cover. There are so many Cool song from the 60's and 70's that need to be heard again...And you Brandon can sing those songs!!!

I'm so very sorry for your loss. Take comfort knowing that those of us who also adore Brandon, send our love.
Hi Brandon, I'm 14 and my dad listens to you with every emotion he has. You are a huge part of my childhood and I just wanted to let you know. Also, the people that disliked it obviously didnt listen to it. Just wanted to let you know :) Bye 😁
gotta love the education kids are getting these days.
❤❤❤
This is the best dang thing I've read all week :)
Fake post
Is your dad single? 😂 Just kidding. He’s doing a great job with you!
Brandon you should do a masterclass on painting it would be awesome 👌
Absolutely one of my favorite artists of all time. Brandon Boyd is just too friggin talented
Amazing! ❤
Very cool that he's paying tribute to this song. Everyone go listen to the original by Cat Stevens.. another musical legend.
Finally get to see Incubus in concert!! 2 more days I'm so happy.
I love all the Incubus songs and now the songs you sing are just as good❤❤❤❤
Brandon aging so graciously makes wine seem like cat piss.
It is lion piss... mmmmm?
I agree so much
#TheBestBrandonBoyd
Hhahahahah
Why always focusing on appearance? Can we just focus on this amazing performance?
Always loved that line, "It's a wild world, hard to get by just upon a smile"
TRUTH!
It's okay to not be okay, that's why we build within ourselves, and connect with others ❤️
Dark night of the Soul shouldn't be surpressed, it's how you eventually reach your higherself - using logic and intuition, but also processing life through feeling the rainbow of emotions.
I currently have this song on repeat because it's the only thing keeping my one month old calm. Like her mom, she knows quality when she hears it.
My daughter loves it and my son rocks it, just rad
My four year old son does too!
Wow ? That was slick ,,! My boy Brandon can pull em out easy peasy ,,
Feeling this OL G
I love this song. I have since childhood. I have the Cat Stevens album. BB ❤️ 👍🥰
Brandon stlll at #1 with such an original, unique and distinct voices of the century
Well said Chris
So true. I can imitate a lot of singer's voices, but could never imitate Brandon's. It's truly one of a kind.

Dear Brandon, it's the right song at the right time...I still like your voice so much... Take also good care! This reality is hard to withstand this times...Best greets from Germany, ♥️ Juliane
That shot of Bruce melted my heart.♥️
Remember Brandon’s awesome version of ‘Alison’ by Elvis Costello... there is nothing this man can not sing.
Yep and the Gap commercial ❤
Ah I see you're man of culture as well.
His voice is truly a gift from God 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Oh baby baby it’s a wild world, it’s hard to get by just up on smile. And I’ll always remember you like a child girl.
@Jiyon Min stop trying to get attention in a negative aspect. It’s lame af.
I love how it sounds "Oh baby baby it's a wild world 🎶" Brandon B♥️
Brandon is wine. Gets better and better as he gets older.
Oh yes!
I’ve been listening to you sing for over 20 years- your voice is amazing and cradling and I want to thank you for all of your artistry.
One of my very faves by Cat Stevens, who's also one of my all time favorite artists. Great tune❣

Now that I've lost everything to you
You say you want to start something new
And it's breaking my heart you're leaving
Baby I'm greaving
But if you want to leave take good care
Hope you have a lot of nice things to wear
But then a lot of things turn bad out there
Oh baby baby it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh baby baby it's a wild world
I'll always remember you like a child girl
You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do
And it's breaking my heart in two
'Cause I never want to see you sad girl
Don't be a bad girl
But if you want leave take good care
Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there's a lot of bad everywhere
Oh baby baby it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon…
I love It. ...oh hot Brandon .....💛
