This is the way to bring us all together. Young old, all colours of skin, rich, poor all of us, we are under the same sky living on the same planet. Music is the universal language that brings us together, makes us laugh, makes us cry and raises our spirits up high. Thank you to all the singer's and musicians playing for change. Keep up the good work. 💜💜💜
Agreed with you! ❤ Better yet. Let's have em go to Congress in DC and straighten out the mess there. Remind them they were all young once! If they don't remember any of the great music from their era. They don't belong presenting & voting on bills for us! Remind them all our pasts represent our future and what it holds. We don't care if they smoked pot and spent their trust fund money on it. ❤
You could tell the band knew shit was gonna go _down!_ When he played that sequence of single notes with that grin on his face, they were all smiling. "HERE WE GO, BROTHER LOUIS!"
Mate you can't just spring that on me like that. Had to Google it. March 2022. Been listening to these since I discovered them in 2017. Didn't know grandpa died. Gutted 😞
I've listened to Santana, Clapton, Hendrix, none of them has impressed me like this solo guitar. This is fine art. Just unbelievable. Without that video, I would've never heard about him.
You're absolutely right, this guitarist is truly extraordinary, a true godsend. I didn't know him either, so it was a real stroke of luck to have been at this concert.
No matter how many times I listen to this it just keeps getting better and better and I'm addicted I go there in my head it's my happy place and the music is out of this world Louis ,Peter,are throwing down Mark did do very good with the arrangements he is so damn gifted can't put into words his talent is fandamntasic!!!!!!
Louis is an absolute genius guitar player. When he starts with his one note repetition, the rest of the band seem quite surprised, but they play along with him beautifully. When he actually does begin to play, their expressions seem to show a mixture of relief and extreme appreciation for his creative talent. It's so good to see a band which is so creative, enjoying each others company, along with the audience. Beautiful, beautiful music, beautiful, beautiful people.
I would think that the band's expression was more like they knew what was coming, remember this was a tour and they probably had done this piece at earlier tour stops and most likely rehearsed together. Nevertheless they all had an expression of gratitude and awe, never gets old for them
Couldn't have phrased it better. You said it all. I thought Nazzy Star, IMY2's version was the ultimate (and she is). Love them both. Almost dyed my hair Purple.
my father loved this song, unfortunately now he's in another world ... thanks man for showing me this. One day, One day, we'll listening together again, where you be.
Lewis Mhlanga Zimbawean guitarist .. so very proud you are our very own BBking come Santana.. this is the best band in the world and what they play and stand for.. most awesome mostly street musicians if I am not wrong .. the real talent is on the street..
The inimitable, gifted lead guitarist Louis Mhlanga (Harare Zimbabwe), Lead male vocalist - Clarence Bekker (Amsterdam Netherlands) - Grandpa Elliot (New Orleans USA) on harmonica, Peter Bunetta on drums (LA USA). lead female vocalist Titi Tsira, (Guguletu, Capetown Sth Africa) & other great artists... Stunning & heart-warming music
They are all so good together , they all have a tremendous amount of talent , love the compilations too of all the people joining in around the world to make music together❣️
Well it might have a lot to do with luck, being in the right place at the right time, but as someone once said "the harder I work, the luckier I seem to get." There is no substitute for hard work and his should be acknowledged.
The marrow in my bones, my heart, my everything rejoices in Playing for Change. Thank you my sistas and brothas of this world. You give me strength and joy everyday. In my belief to keep caring for our beautiful world and all that lives within it. Much love....Aroha
The intro alone OMG my tears flowed...That is ME...MUSIC & LOVE...The Greatest COMFORTERS of all time "What's Up?" if this does not penetrate the core of every Human Being. ***The ENERGY is ELECTRIFYING. The Crowd's participation is BEAUTIFUL. The Band is AMAZING***WOW*** LORD, Thank You
I absolutely love what Playing for Change is all about what it does for the children and for the musicians that put their heart and soul into what they do for young schools young children get them instruments all the things that they can do to help start these children the right way also Playing for Change to me is about loving each other and sharing our lives with hope and love and passion all over this world take care you all and God bless.
May 2019, and still loving the Vibe. Thank you so much PFC, for making this world a better place. Louis, yet another master of his craft, as most everyone involved is.
I was flat broke, living outdoors, scrounging for every meal and one day I took my guitar down to the water front. I began playing some songs. I was diagnosed with MS a few days earlier and had given up on the whole life thing. The doctors, the government, the hateful people that tormented me every day and it was this song I played that day that brought me back to being me. A strong person, I found my hope. A group of people started gathering around and one person came forward and asked me to play this song. I made $100 just for busking. That made my day. I made enough money to get a good meal, found the inner strength to actually ask for help with my personal trouble and was offered a job (which I gladly took ) I will never give up or give into this MS thing.
Dan McCarthy ... Such a sad story. Yes, their music is very uplifting. Wish you a miraculous recovery. Have a friend with MS. Music and nature.. a healing combination..
Look at me back here, a DE JA VU that deserves to see again, what a Banda Maravilhosa it was, formed by several musicians from all countries, music does that, it unites people. Congratulations Always to them and them wherever they are right now. Much Health to All and All.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for being the little piece of heaven on Earth we all need. My ears, my eyes and my heart are so grateful for Playing For Change!
Holy shit. Best cover I've heard. That lead guitar picks up all the pain of this song. Absolutely mesmerized. It's obvious he can rain heavier shit. But, he stayed true to the music.
The original of this song hurts my heart and reminds me of losses. This version with these people I recognize in my ears changed the feeling I used to associate with song. I love pfc
I’m disappointed with the inclusion of ads in this wonderful video. As I said before, this is the best version of this song I have heard, but it has been spoiled by the ad breaks, right at critical parts of the video. Who in their right mind puts an ad break in the middle of an amazing guitar solo?
This is the way to bring us all together. Young old, all colours of skin, rich, poor all of us, we are under the same sky living on the same planet. Music is the universal language that brings us together, makes us laugh, makes us cry and raises our spirits up high. Thank you to all the singer's and musicians playing for change.
