I am crying and do not have any reason for it, except this wonderfull voice with all this wonderfull music.... i feel the peace in my heart...... thanx..... i feel small and humble. All the best Mr Geoffrey Gurrumul
What other man could do this? I'm 35 yrs old and am constantly blown away by G.G. Yunupingu to the point of tears. Just shows no disability stands in the way of Awesomness
After2 months I can still listen to this song with ever growing attention. Its a rich blend of healing, pathos ,sweetness, and serenity;all in one. Thanks a Million Geoffrey, fans are behind you.
This Man is absolutely amazing and listening to him must be like listening to Heaven. Thank you so much for sharing this video, it is truly heaven sent x. We must all buy his music and show our support for a true TALENT. What a wonderful person Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu is xxx.
What an amazing Man Dr G was RIP DR G.. these lyrics have such great meaning and I cannot believe it was 10yrs ago!! Thank you for sharing this, just come across clip but so wonderful as his movie in retrospect since Dr G's passing is now being shown around Australia
this song is something you cant do better then him he goes straight for your heart u cant do it better then that he touches your heart and soul at the same time
It's sad that it took his death to introduce me to his music. He passed away today and I saw his name on Wikipedia. Since I have interest in Australian culture, I decided to look up his music and was duly impressed with his incredible voice.
Rhys Nagas I say this because it is sad that people do not stop judging others. I love this mans music, his face and everything I see But then I wish i was more like him both inside and out.
he have blind, god give a super voice and people feel to much emotion and cry . and is said song because the eyes is the light for life !! god bless u and thanks for u music
No that was his uncle Mandawuy Yunupingu. Gurrumul played keyboards, guitar and percussion with them as a young teenager and in his early 20s, including on the legendary anthem Treaty which he is credited as a co-writer for his keyboard parts.

Very , very nice vid.. I luv this guy, i posted a lil compilation of his full cd, come n look, enjoy, leave comments and most of all... BUY Gurrumul's music, . Stupendous... Colin Scotland
Perspective is everything. If anyone from our dominant western culture wrote a song like this, they would be laughed out of the building and never have any kind of career. We all know why. It has a simplicity that would be deemed unacceptable amongst our own.
You seem to miss a lot from your perspective - he wrote the song, it's quite a sophisticated melody and he is singing in his second language. The voice is his own and the unique guitar playing is self taught. No more or less simple than many acoustic performers on the world stage.
Shalom Gurrumul,you are in Heaven with The Lord and with your eyes to see how Beautiful it is Amen.
I am crying and do not have any reason for it, except this wonderfull voice with all this wonderfull music.... i feel the peace in my heart...... thanx..... i feel small and humble. All the best Mr Geoffrey Gurrumul
Geoffrey your voice brought tears to my eyes my friend Bless you brother ;)
My Dog, Nancy. barks in time to this song. Even a Dog knows how stunningly beautiful the music of this man was.
I found this looking for indigenous Austrailian music for my class. This is such a beautiful song I have tears in my eyes. Bless you all.
To me you are the best the world has ever.....may God bless you Gurrumul.
Life's unfair! Such a great Voice left us much to early! R.I.P.
I saw this yesterday on ABC too. Amazing, truly amazing. What pure talent. This man should be a national treasure.
What other man could do this? I'm 35 yrs old and am constantly blown away by G.G. Yunupingu to the point of tears. Just shows no disability stands in the way of Awesomness
Me too!!!!
RIP Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu. You will surely be missed. This song Gurrumul History (I Was Born Blind) is such a beautful song like many of them xx
Had the honour of hearing Geoffrey in concert...Thank you for your beautiful music, now you are at rest with your people
This man was a Saint. Broke my heart when he left. Breaks my heart every time I listen.

united we stand divided we fall .... God has blessed you and your voice ... More love to all... one love one aim one peopel one family
I think I was at the back of the Opera House at this concert. So glad I made it.
After2 months I can still listen to this song with ever growing attention. Its a rich blend of healing, pathos ,sweetness, and serenity;all in one.

🌈🏝🙋♀️WONDERFUL SONG AND GREAT TALENT AND VOICE🙋♀️🏝🌈
Love his song brings tears to my eyes GOD BLESS YOU BROTHER see you in heaven
I heard his song on November 29, 2018. Much appreciate the love and talent shown. God bless All who come
So loaded with emotion and personal meaning that it is almost too poignant to listen to. Beautiful.
fantastic. let us all gain strength from him.
An absolute proof that you cant tell a book by its cover!!! He is awesome!
No one can judge anyone,.. But talent is sometimes the only thing that stops people judging
Rhys Nagas I say this because it is sad that people do not stop judging others.
I love this mans music, his face and everything I see But then I wish i was more like him both inside and out.
Rhys Nagas His voice over shadows his physical appearance.....his music is "spiritual" in some way.......
I soooooooooooooooo agree!! Have you listened to any of his other music??? If not, look it up ad listen.
@@brendagail1952 whats wrong with his physical appearance ?
You may not have all your vision but you have a great vision through your beautiful music.
Music is a powerful tool...you are god.
bless you Budge
Just luv the purity of these songs.
Breathtakingly beautiful x
An Angel.....now home in his heaven.

Linda canção apesar de não entender a tradução.

Pretty sure mine were the first Gurrumul videos upped on TH-cam over 8 years ago
He was in Yothu Yindi but he was not the lead singer, that is Manduway Yunupingu.
Brilliant man. used to be the lead singer in Yothu Yindi
No that was his uncle Mandawuy Yunupingu. Gurrumul played keyboards, guitar and percussion with them as a young teenager and in his early 20s, including on the legendary anthem Treaty which he is credited as a co-writer for his keyboard parts.
Thank you
My people forever r I p bro
Beautiful Brther want have you in Mauritius
He died 2017
*Gurrumul History (I Was Born Blind) Lyrics*
I was born blind and I don't know why
God knows why because He loves me so
As I grew up, my spirit knew
Then I learned to read the world of destruction
United we stand, divided we fall
Together we'll stand, in solidarity
Ŋarranydja dhuwala Batumaŋ
Ŋarranydja dhuwala Djarrami
Ŋarranydja dhuwala Djeŋarra'
Ŋarranydja dhuwala Gurrumulŋa
M, m
I heard my mama and my papa
Crying their hearts in confusion
How can I walk? Straight and tall
In society please hold my hand
Trying to bridge and build Yolŋu culture
I've been to New York, I've been to LA
I've been to London
Ŋarranydja Gurrumul
United we stand, divided we fall
Together we'll stand, in solidarity
Ŋarranydja dhuwala Barrupa
Ŋarranydja dhuwala Dhukuḻuḻ
Ŋarranydja dhuwala Maralitja
Ŋarranydja dhuwala Ŋunbuŋunbu
Y, e, wo wäŋawu Garrapala
Dhamutjpirr, Dhamuŋura
THE SILLY INSTRUMENT PLAYERS ARE DROWNING THE BEAUTIFUL VOICE OF THIS SINGER.
Cannot agree - this is played beautifully by all and blends nicely together. His voice is out front and prominent
Met him in the bush in 2001.
wawa ga wawa
🙏REST PEACEFULLY🌠 G🌠🙏
aewsome
💖
RIP
Gurrumul's message
transcends the bigotry and ignorance of the most violent racist.
Let us listen to him,
and turn our ears from them.
Very , very nice vid..
I luv this guy, i posted a lil compilation of his full cd, come n look, enjoy, leave comments and most of all...
BUY Gurrumul's music, .
Stupendous...

do ya think he plays hes guitar upside down cos hes from austrailia lovely sonbs
wow his mad he plays a right handed guitar upside down because he is left handed and taught himself that way
"united we stand, divided we fall" so simple, but so often are forgotten
RIP
I have only watched this video but he is awesome. He will be missed.
