Buddy, if you ever read these messages, know one thing: I am a white middle class kid who lost his dad early on. I made something of himself, but nothing ever made a real difference in my life until I heard you play and sing. Without you, I am not sure where I would be. It sounds crass, but it's very true. You sang about getting along before getting along was a thing. Thank you. I donate to Playing for Change every year and I hope other listeners will too. Music can make a huge difference in peoples lives. It did in mine. I love you Buddy and I love Playing for Change!
Sure.but this type of song would never reach the masses.power that be wont allow us to unite and get along. This is why they are promoting mumble rap With gang killing hoe etc.. Sad world we are living.
I'm an old white man from Louisiana and I agree with this song 🎵 totally. I understand and lived through times like he is singing about and thankfully we have come a long, long way. Thanks Mr. Buddy ❤
The pain,the tears,the hurt,the sadness,the loneliness,the colour of our skin has caused to millions of human beings over the centuries has got to come to an end,for humans sake,let us all live together,Amen.
This has got to be one of the most inspirational songs I have heard in many years. Buddy Guy is a genius with a compassionate heart for his fellow human beings. Thank you for this video !
OMG YES! Bring Buddy out there too. One of the most underappreciated artists that has ever lived. I'm 45, not dying..white.. and his music solo and with Junior changed my world.
846 people dislike the song and the arrangement of it.....you should all leave this country if you can't appreciate a song like this...go to one of the COUNTRIES where you won't have the privilege to listen to what you want or do what you want where someone else tells you what to do and how to do it....
How great a world we'd become if they did. They lack the financial courage to transfer from a fear based platform to a joy based platform. How surprised would they be if they changed their conditioned ways and discovered there is still food on the table and abundance to be had. Discovered they had it wrong but chose to make it right. That would be a beautiful thing. Great comment my friend. Much love to you😘🙏
@@krugera.4816 I couldn't agree more and although man will always depend on the force of conflict to propel it to the next stage of growth, I feel as though we're on the precipice right now of a remarkable shift. So happy to share this world with you and thank you for your beautiful spirit.
The man is preaching love and tolerance to all races. I love the line “Boy do this and boy do that, but I never once complained, I knew he had a good heart, but he just didn’t understand, that I needed to be treated like any other man”. Buddy put it gently, and beautifully and does not sing about anger or retribution.❤️
Hi Buddy Guy.. I love this song so much. Why are we not listening to this song instead of black lives matter we are all the same only skin deep. Everybody's skin is beautiful
His best album - Damn Right I got the Blues. He used to really tour and was fantastic. Saw him several times back in the 80s and 90s, time when Blues was making a resurgence thanks to Stevie Ray Vaughn playing with the Masters while they were still alive.
Keep the music coming...maybe others will listen to his words. We need to come together today and appreciate everyone's differences. Embrace the differences.
I love Buddy Guy!! If I got my earbuds in you can bet im listening to Buddy or B B KING! I got the blues in my blood SKIN DEEP!! 47 year old white woman from small town in southern Indiana with no stop lights!!! We all look the same!!!
A buddy of mine worked in Chicago. He took me to Buddy Guys for lunch. Lorrie Bell was there and he peformed. I got to meet Mr. Bell. I thought at the time. How cool. To be in Chicago, home of the BLUES, and meet a living legend.
I heard Buddy play this live on the first tour after he wrote it. So moving, emotional and thought provoking. We were all in awe. Great song letting people know how it was to grow up as a black man in a white world. Seen Buddy play many times over my life, great man. Let's all be kind to one another.
Darkness can not out shine darkness only light can outshine darkness ... Lord Christ Jesus help me to shine YOUR LIGHT... AMEN. LOVE YOU ALWAYS ... RET. COL.
Sarah Marie, Tula, Clarence, Memers, Roberto, Louis, Grandpa, Waddy, the list goes on of the greatest singers and musicians of the world. From all the PFC videos I have seen, the Captain of this ship is Buddy Guy. Don't leave us Buddy, we need you more than ever. Special thanks to Mark Johnson, for putting in motion PFC, we need more Mark Johnson's.
No words can really describe how beautiful and meaningful this song is, the performance, how people came together to make this piece of art ! I just hope for one thing, GET THE MESSAGE !! cuz skin deep, we all look the same. 🖤🤍
Buddy Guy has been my favorite blues guitarist and singer for well more than 50 years. His voice could reach the highest tree-top and pull the most beautiful leaves down for us. And his guitar playing beats just about everyone.
Thank you for sharing beautiful music. I am so blessed to feel such a tribute for gratitude within human kind. Love is needed Together.. in every color We are One. ☘💜
We really are all the same under our skin. Kindess, humanity , respect, helping each other if needed.. It's in the person not in the collour of the skin.. thanks for the wise words and great songs.
My song every morning luv this song, reason being is , theres a great message for everybody who think differently about people in this world. The message is seen & shown with the band. Thanks for all the lovely people who are contributing in this message, members of the band & the ways they played whole heartedly with the MAN (singer) as well as the ladies & everybody. This is my weak up, morning song . Awesome people who put their hearts to this music luv it. Thanks from New Zealand.
Been a lover of all music for my entire life. Can’t remember the last time I listened to one song so many times. I think this is what it sounds and looks like when music is at its best. Music uniting and lifting people and filling them with positive energy.
I don't know if Buddy Guy will see these. I was lucky enough to see you play at your spot in Chicago. You are an international treasure. No matter how often or how many times I listen to this song, it brings to tears in the best of ways. There is no other song that hits me like this does for reasons both personal and existentially beyond myself. This version of this song is somehow better than the original to me because it just displays such an awesome power to unite through music. Playing For Change, Buddy Guy ... there are not proper words to appropriately celebrate and acknowledge the joy you have brought into my life and the lives of so many.
Thanks for so much power in my heart because of this song... Peace from us in southeast Asia to all of my brothers and sisters around the world... Fight against Covid-19... Be stronger...
I love PFC, I get emotional every time I listen and watch your songs. Music truly crosses all boundaries, touches the soul. I love this song, after many years as a paramedic, I can attest to these words, but also we all, love, feel pain, appreciate kindness, help and bleed the same. To love and be loved is all the human spirit requires.
I also have a polka dot guitar pic worn a bit that he tossed in the crowd, maybe 1999? (it says Buddy Guy!), my hand took some stompings to get it; but I still pull it out to impress my friends who know music. LOVE YOU BUDDY!

@@tonymiller6847 It's a long drive from Arizona man or I would. Enjoy that show! Btw, Tony Miller Righetti class of 93?
NM I had the last names mixed up. Tony Miller as in SM high and good friends with Greg?
Saw Buddy Guy tonight in Sacramento, CA and he was great. He sang Skin Deep tonight and the audience sang with him. Love him, too.
Sure.but this type of song would never reach the masses.power that be wont allow us to unite and get along.
This is why they are promoting mumble rap
With gang killing hoe etc..
Sad world we are living.
Man just makes me cry,tears of joy and anguish and I will always be grateful thanks for all the shows! Thank you sir 😁
I am a 63yr old White former Prison Officer. This my favourite record. Underneath we are all the same.

What a BEAUTIFUL SONG !
This is my favorite song of all! Buddy said it the way it needs to be said. God bless him!!!

This has got to be one of the most inspirational songs I have heard in many years. Buddy Guy is a genius with a compassionate heart for his fellow human beings. Thank you for this video !
I have a suggestion, I wish a bunch of these Playing For Change Artists & songs...Starting with this one....could be the Next Superbowl Half Time show
Great Idea!!!
OMG YES! Bring Buddy out there too. One of the most underappreciated artists that has ever lived. I'm 45, not dying..white.. and his music solo and with Junior changed my world.
that would be cool. A bunch of jumbotrons with people all around the world playing.
You mean real talent with a positive message for all??? YES!!
That's a very cool idea, totally support!!!
846 people dislike the song and the arrangement of it.....you should all leave this country if you can't appreciate a song like this...go to one of the COUNTRIES where you won't have the privilege to listen to what you want or do what you want where someone else tells you what to do and how to do it....
Love this song
I love listening to this song if everybody in the world would feel like this it'd be a lot better place to live
Every News channel should be require to play this each every day till it sinks in.... Amen!!!!

Alexis Frank beautiful.
Alexis Frank I agree with you. I think a change is in the works. At least I certainly hope so.
Buddy is a living Blues legend. He is one my favorite Blues Men. 80+ years old and still getting better with age.
Yes he is... And these incredibly powerful lyrics that resonate deep in the soul, no matter we're you're from...
Hopefully we all get better with age like he has. He is a class act. Moves my soul every time I put on their CD's
Thank you for singin the words that we all need 2 hear . MUCH ❤
Thank You Mr. Guy and all for this beautiful, inspiring message of love.
