    European songwriters, American instrumentalists, African singer. The only thing that brings this world together into true beautiful harmony is music. Amazing. Thanks for coming to Red Rocks, it's a night I won't forget!

    I first heard this in my high school piano class 9 years ago. The teacher asked us to close our eyes, listen to the music and create a story out of it. I won’t tell you the story I formed- but it was quite adventures and … still is. Beautiful music shows us the beauty of life. Thanks to two of my favorite musicians- Alex Boye and the Piano guys. You have always rocked!

    It's been years and I still come back to hear this beautiful song.
    I remember listening to it for the first time, when I was still at highschool, and buying the disc that same day. It grew on me, I listened to it every day, and now, with all due respect for Coldplay, whenever I hear the iconic melody of this song, this is the version that comes up to my mind.
    Such a beautiful interpretation. Thank you, for being part of my life.

      ***** Your actually right. Just checked on Wikipedia. He was actually born in England but spent his early childhood in Nigeria and afterwards back in England. I thought he was South African since he refers to the Swahili language in the beginning of this video and I detect a heavy African accent when he sings some words, which is strange if he grew up in England.

    I like how Steven is always smiling when he plays the cello. That's how music is supposed to make you feel. When I used to play the violin as a kid, I wanted to play music from the movies, like star wars. I never got to play what I wanted to, and lost interest. These guys make me wanna play again. They play things that make them happy, not because some teacher wants to play old classical stuff.

    When I was young (around 10 years old) I'd listen to this song almost every day, and fell in love with the Cello part. It really inspired me to pick up the Cello. Which I ended up doing a few years later. I learned for about a year, and then switched to the violin. But I still love both instruments. Almost 6 years later, I still come back and listen to this master piece.
