I love John Legend's version of this song! I also think Melonie Fiona's voice is beautiful, I usually don't like rap, but Common's part in it just seems to flow! This song really moves me to tears, the message is so powerful to me!
This song is for the hurricane Harvey because some people don't donate stuff to people like that so it's me I'm going to dedicate this whole phone so please please please listen to the song and you'll like it and then tell other people about it I feel so sorry for the hurricane Harvey could everybody lost their stuff
I haven't thought about this song in over a decade, woke up thus morning thinking to start my day on a positive note and this popped back into my head randomly. Still hits
This should be the world anthem not the national one...again ....the lesson of this song is no apartheid...not only your country.... otherwise you dont understand the message of the song
Let's wake up, stand for freedom, justice, equality. We are the ones who build our communities, not oligarchs, Billionaires, corrupt leaders and their sycophants. Lend a hand, send a message. Love to all!
This song is so amazingly relevant!!! And we need more music like this to surface main stream media.. And Let's be real, it's out there it just doesn't get the well deserved attention.... But one day that's gon change...# Fighting for Good Music#!!!
Wake up everybody. The world won’t get no better if we just let it be. We got to change it, just you and me. Much love and gratitude to the soldiers of love.
This song always reminds me to be aware in every thing I do, I say and think. And it reminds me to take good care to each other; show respect to elderly and weak, but also be a guiding light to the young. We all, as human unity, are strong enough, smart enough and together enough to get through this COVID-crisis. Because the #1 leader is L.O.V.E. Take good care and stay healthy, safe and optimistic.
Bellissima canzone e ritornello 👍🎶 Voce fantastica caro John Legend ✳️Gr azie molte per averlo condiviso🙏 Un grande applauso 👋 Complimenti!! Più tardi 🇮🇹✔️👌
Honestly, that song got me so emotional 😧😧 because of what it stands for and how long ago it's been written. It still reflects and refers to the world today......
Still Listening 2021 this was in my time I'm 66yrs and i still love love this song !! This needs to be played in every city and state and especially in every Black and Brown community !!play this song around the World !! ❤
This song is amazing♥️ I love how they all have such positive energy with each other..Common & The Roots always make me smile, their music is always flowing through my house, God has truly blessed this world with them all😊♥️
It's time for us wake up because things are not getting any better.It's much worse now than when this song first came out.A beautiful rendition indeed.WAKE UP EVERYBODY.
the one thing I hate about people who do things like this is that they have no soul of faith in the original work usually they drown out the original or make a mess of the real work I understand the need of the new artists to show what they can do when you take on a price of music like this you should understand the spirit of the original these people have understood the spirit of the original music and managed to keep that spirit and give it more of a modern twist without actually loosing what the original piece of music was about very well done I will be waiting in anticipation for your next piece of music
I don't think they are disrespecting the original work. they are trying to tell us the message hasn't changed from the 70s and it's sad. Our world just doesn't get it. Love and change! I love the message and it has to be relevant for all audiences.
I used to hear this song every morning as a 9 year old growing up in jamaica. Everymorning on the radio and it seeped into my subconcious. Music/lyrics are powerful
THIS BROUGHT ME TO TEARS. SPEAKS VOLUMES ABOUT HOW FAST WE GROW UP AND LIFE CHANGES.
A timeless song and a beautiful rendition of the Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes original.
The Roots and Common always put a smile on my face and hope in my heart. 😊
Love this track! So happy there are artistes like John and the Roots around...hope this kind of music never dies!
I love this video. It represents how our world should be. Taking care of the children, respecting each other, show love!🤗
❤❤
Love this! ❤ it's timeless...
We need more music like this, it inspires us to be better.
Absolutely agree
This song always gives me chills... love it.
This song is the Reminder of what we need during covid!! The lyrics are so accurate.
No vaccine.....
@@luigipagnotta6820 aqaa
This song should be the world anthem
WoooW...YEAAH !?!? XX I would record it but THIS version - cannot be topped. ;))
Indeed
I remember listening to this everyday when it first came out. So glad it popped in my head tonight, felt good hearing some REAL music again 💕
I was the same wallpapering my daughter's bedroom right now what a song for inspiration 2019 and still so meaningful 😁
This song is so relevant to what's happening today.
I love John Legend's version of this song! I also think Melonie Fiona's voice is beautiful,
I usually don't like rap, but Common's part in it just seems to flow! This song really
moves me to tears, the message is so powerful to me!
This is the old John Legend Sound in this video
A great R & B Soul song, with a great message. Excellent work, John Legend. I so respect what you do and love your music.
bem legal essa musica
This song is for the hurricane Harvey because some people don't donate stuff to people like that so it's me I'm going to dedicate this whole phone so please please please listen to the song and you'll like it and then tell other people about it I feel so sorry for the hurricane Harvey could everybody lost their stuff
Its a sample
A SERMON IN A SONG. This is the meaning of life everlasting. Thanks Teddy.
The Roots as the backup Band !!! How could I not LOVE this version!! They ALL totally do Teddy Pendergrass justice
I haven't thought about this song in over a decade, woke up thus morning thinking to start my day on a positive note and this popped back into my head randomly. Still hits
This should become our national anthem starting today!
wake up America! Juneteenth
I agree
I give to them but once you here the original either from marvin Gaye or teddy pendergast this will sound off but big ups to them
This should be the world anthem not the national one...again ....the lesson of this song is no apartheid...not only your country.... otherwise you dont understand the message of the song
6 years later and I still find myself coming back to this beautiful song
I love this song but I'm 19 and still ain't doing nothing
@@malaysiagreen155 we've all been 19... - it can't be overnight change neither :)

Still one of the best songs of all time, in my opinion.
Agreed and this is a underrated song
Same here
Teddy P song ,love this but teddy p the truth

Coronavirus on my mind as i listen to this. We have to change the way we do things from now on
Let's wake up, stand for freedom, justice, equality. We are the ones who build our communities, not oligarchs, Billionaires, corrupt leaders and their sycophants. Lend a hand, send a message. Love to all!
Yessssss!!! 🙏🏾

I used to listen to this song every morning on the wake up in NY, now Im using this song for my children 🤗❤️
Wake up everybody. The world won’t get no better if we just let it be. We got to change it, just you and me. Much love and gratitude to the soldiers of love.
i always walk in class every morning with this song playing last year in my history class.i absolutely love this song, so refreshing.
Just heard for the first time. Great song and perfect for today.
This song always reminds me to be aware in every thing I do, I say and think. And it reminds me to take good care to each other; show respect to elderly and weak, but also be a guiding light to the young.
We all, as human unity, are strong enough, smart enough and together enough to get through this COVID-crisis.

Take good care and stay healthy, safe and optimistic.

simi vRx, TRUE THAT
Honestly, that song got me so emotional 😧😧 because of what it stands for and how long ago it's been written. It still reflects and refers to the world today......
This song is as relevant for today as it was in the mid 2000s. A Classic
This song is more moving than ever. Wake up y'all!
A wake up call to all... let peace prevail and lets live together in love. It's not a request, it's our requirement to live happily in this life.
Such an excellent song 💯

Funny how this is so relevant right now. Every lyric
It's 2023 but this joint is still outstanding ❤
