    My grandfather who raised me since a newborn and gave me all the love he could give to me sent me this song when I was leaving to go with my boyfriend for the first time at 19. He said this is the best way for him to say the words he's been wanting to say is through this song and I already knew this song by heart but listening to it with a new personal meaning made me bawl my eyes out. Thank you Papa for all the love you've given me and more. You're my hero and idol.

      LYRICS:
      La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la, la, la
      La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la, la, la
      La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la, la, la-la, la
      [Verse 1]
      Now that I've lost everything to you
      You say you wanna start something new
      And it's breakin' my heart you're leavin'
      Baby, I'm grievin'
      But if you wanna leave, take good care
      Hope you have a lot of nice things to wear
      But then a lot of nice things turn bad out there
      Chorus]
      Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
      It's hard to get by just upon a smile
      Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
      I'll always remember you like a child, girl
      [Verse 2]
      You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do
      And it's breakin' my heart in two
      Because I never wanna see you sad, girl
      Don't be a bad girl
      But if you wanna leave, take good care
      Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
      But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware
      Beware
      [Chorus]
      Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
      And it's hard to get by just upon a smile
      Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
      And I'll always remember you like a child, girl
      [Bridge]
      ...la-la-la-la-la-la-la, la, la
      La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la la la-la, la
      Baby, I love you
      But if you wanna leave, take good care
      Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
      But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware
      Beware
      [Extended Chorus]
      Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
      It's hard to get by just upon a smile
      Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
      And I'll always remember you like a child, girl
      Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
      And it's hard to get by just upon a smile
      Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
      And I'll always remember you like a child, girl

    Six months ago, my beloved husband passed away after battling with cancer. He loved music so much. This is the song he always played guitar and sang. He recorded himself. Now I have it with my Bluetooth. I feel mixed emotions when I here his voice singing this song.

      I lost my fiance´, who I knew for only 4 short years, to lung cancer. He had 2 to 4 months to live when he was diagnosed. That really sobered me up mentally. I miss him so much, even 20 years later. Cancer is an evil disease. 🍀❤

    This is a "Timeless Classic" that is a good example of "Hall Of Fame" Songwriting...A Song that has "Meaning" and pertains to Human Life...I remember listening to him while I was a Young Boy in the 70's with my mother on an AM Radio...He was an Artist my Mother "Really Liked"...So whenever I hear any of his songs Her Spirit is With Me...AW! The power of Music is just "Amazing"...This is my Favorite 1.

    Thank god my parents had great taste in music. On the way to the west coast we played Cat's 8 track in the van. My parents pulled me out of boarding school in May '71, to join their journey. Been living in Colorado ever since. Still on that '71 journey; living the dream. Love the music and my parents for saying good bye to NY. Thank you for posting this song.

I grew up with his music which looks like to me was before you were born. I view people as people not by their religious beliefs . I can respect whom I want to respect. You jump off at me like I said something bad about the artist.

    I have always loved this song. Every song takes you back in time, and can change meaning through the decades you live. This song takes me back to a wonderful man that I was so in love with, and after two years, I thought he felt the same. He did, problem was, was he was married and I told him that I could not be with him. He was a few years older and me moving on was an awakening.of the soul.

      I'm genuinely happy for you and your husband. It's nice to hear about cases like these. It gives me hope that one day I'll have a similar experience.
      To me this song is about an ended relationship with the only girl I've truly been in love with, too young to be able to think, say and do the right things, necessary to let that relationship grow and continue.
      After 3 years of relationship, I sent this song to her as we were breaking up, because every single word of this song was and still is what I felt in my mind and heart, but I couldn't find a way to say it to her, for multiple reasons.
      Anyways, I'm rooting for you and your husband, this wild world needs more love and more loving couples.
      I wish you all the best. 🙏🏻
      Cheers from Italy. 🇮🇹

    La dernière fois que j'ai entendu vôtre chanson, c'était un jeune couple, qui chantait dans un hôtel en Thaïlande, à Rayong exactement, ils étaient brésiliens !! 💕 C'est un des moments magnifique dans une vie surtout quand vous êtes avec l'homme de votre vie et qui m'a quitté hélas, deux ans déjà, suite au cancer du poumon !! Un an et demi de souffrances et une dégradation physique... terrible pour lui et pour nous sa famille. LE TABAC JE LE HAIS !!! Car lorsque vous continuez à fumer, il n' y a pas de miracle... Vous raccourcicez vos chances de vie. 😘 Merci de m'avoir lu. Une Mamie 🧓

    This was my favorite song when I was around 5 Years old, i'm almost 16 now, after a long history of sexual, mental, and even physical abuse, this song hits so hard now. If I ever see my niece again (she lives all the way across the US from me), I'll play her this song.

    I have always considered myself a metal fan. The heavier the better but I adore Yusuf Islam. His music conjures happy memories of childhood holidays for me. That's what music should do like any art form, provoke an emotional response. Be it happiness, anger, grief or nostalgia. So thumbs up for Yusuf.

      Patricia Cappiello I am so very sorry to hear about your father. I've lost mine also. Lost my brother around the same time. I had two young girls at the time and I hateto admit that I turned to self-medicating for a while. It was my girls that brought me out of it, but I play this song for them as a kind of 'I'm so sorry and you are the air that keeps me alive'. So, naturally, all 3 of us cry. You cry and you scream if you feel like it hon, till you cant cry or scream anymore. You have to work through the feelings. Only then can you stop avoiding thinking about him out of fear of breaking down into tears. God bless you ❤

    But, on the 30 of November 2021, he passed away.
    He was always playing this song and I know it by heart. It’s one of my favourite song ever and I will never forget how I discovered it and started to like it.
    Love you dad
