Morning Has Broken is on the album Teaser & The Firecat. This is probably one of my favorites but I like all his songs. All the songs on both albums are great. He is still recording & performing live & his voice still sounds great. Check out his song Matthew & Son.

    Written in 1931, many will have grown up singing this hymn at school or in church. With a cheerful melody and hopeful lyrics, Morning Has Broken is not a funeral hymn about loss or grief, but about life and renewal. It's another example of a 'happy' funeral hymn.
    First published in 1931, “Morning Has Broken” is a popular and well-known Christian hymn. It has words by English author Eleanor Farjeon.

    Cat Stevens converted to Islam in the 70s and changed his name to Yusuf Islam, and issued a Fatwah call for death against author Salman Rushdie for writing the book “the Satanic Verses” in 1987, which Stevens condemned as blasphemous. Not a good look for him!

    • @ron88303
      @ron88303 3 года назад

      He didn't issue the fatwah; he was reported as supporting a fatwah issued by the Ayatollah Khomeini. I believe he tried to backtrack on this, even issuing a press release to such effect. But definitely not a good look. On the other hand, he has been involved in numerous humanitarian efforts since converting to Islam which, along with his music, convey a better impression (at least in my opinion).

    • @scottwheeler2679
      @scottwheeler2679 3 года назад +2

      @@ron88303 Not only did he not issue it.He did not support it. There was a townhall meeting with well known members of Islam regarding the actual fatwah issued. Someone from the press asked Yusef Islam if Islamic law actually supported this fatwah. He responded by saying that Islamic law does consider blasphomy a crime punishable by death but that the Quran also explicitely states that members of Islam should always follow the law of the land. Which in England was quite clear. The next day the headline read Cat Stevens supports the Iatola Komani's call for the execution of Rashdi. Islam fought with the paper over their misrepresentation and they printed a retraction a week and a half later on page 11. Damage done. It never happened. People still believe it did.

    Just to lay down a marker here, this man, Yusaf Islam as he now calls himself, approved of the fatwah upon Salman Rushdie. He says he disavows that now, but watching interviews with him during that time, I have my doubts still, to this day. Makes it hard to listen to. For me, sort of like Terrible Ted Nugent. I've trouble separating the man and his music.

It's the catchiest song you'll ever hear about killing an unfaithful spouse. The video is an absolute masterpiece as well. Just 4 guys, 3 of whom sing, a bass cello and a banjo. It's Canadian bluegrass, the video has about a quarter of a billion views, and is really hard to get out of your head after you listen to it once.
