Quelle voix,quel amour.C'est l'ame qui chante et nous te croyons. Mais pourquoi ne pas lui avoir attribué le Prix Nobel de la Paix. Merci Joan. Camille Rebuffet
This song was a Civil Rights song/hymn in the sixties. As long as there are supremacists of any color, religion, nationality, we will not know peace in our world. That gives us all an imperative to teach and live a peaceful life. We can learn to forgive others and ourselves. We can overcome the evils of this world.
+Jennifer Trippeer I believe what you are saying. Someone has to break the circle of violence and hate. Someday a victim of violence WILL turn the other cheek and say I WILL NOT HATE YOU whatever you do.
+Jennifer Trippeer We need to overcome alcohol supremacism, including the perverse alcohol supremacism over cannabis. It's an obstacle to a more peaceful world in a variety of ways.
hello jennifer - with google I want to answer your wonderful comment - I'm blind, please forgive me mistakes while writing! When I heard your comment I had to cry - now I know that there are still people who think like me as well. - Only when we learn peace to teach and to live we can approach each other, forgive each other and help each other. People have to get away from their nationalist traditions and turn back to god, then they can find peace - with themselves and with their next ones, no matter which skin color or nationality he belongs! This is what a former professional soldier tells you - I know exactly what I'm writing about - we should never be too proud to ask for forgiveness. we should not condemn anyone, because whoever is without mistakes - throw the first stone - so I have read it in the holy word of God. that was great comfort! I wish you peace !!!
This song puts me at peace with humanity, and.. and.. an.. even love it. We are one fascinating species. Don't forget, we're not just human, we are humankind. That's two words, human and kind.
I think that there will always be people who have an open ear and a hungry heart and thay will remember this songs (I am one of the second generation) peace for all beings
On June 25, 2009, Baez created a special version of "We Shall Overcome" with a few lines of Persian lyrics in support of peaceful protests by Iranian people. She recorded it in her home and posted the video on RUclips and on her personal website. She dedicated the song "Joe Hill", to the people of Iran during her concert at Merrill Auditorium, Portland, Maine on July 31, 2009. Love You Joan
Yes, Iran needs female-leader supremacism like in the west, LGBT parades, tattoos, censorship to protect these ideas and mega-corporations dumping 1000000 iPhones, BMWs --- to save humanity.
She is singing in Woodstock Festival, It was the last of the 14 songs she sang, closing the first night (August 16, 1969), even she began to sing at 12.55 AM and continued to 2.00 AM, it means on August 17 th. Arlo Guthrie sang before Joan...and before Melanie........
Every time I hear this song, I remember when I was in 2nd grade and my whole school was parading the streets singing that song. That song and moment was so special to me. I will never forget it.
I am so touched to see people young and old listening to the mesmerizing and inspirational Joan Baez. Below, I paste my posting from the RUclips in which she sings this song in her kitchen. Please remember to also listen to and remember Leonard Cohen -- one of the most intelligent song writers of all time. Hallelujah, Leonard; we miss you! Posted on her recent version of We Shall Overcome: I sit here with tears in my eyes listening to the great Joan Baez during these days when we celebrate the memory of Leonard Cohen and the awarding of the Nobel Prize for Literature to Bob Dylan; as well as challenge the falsely acclaimed winning of the presidency by Donald Trump. While I sometimes miss the passing of the 60's, especially the music, I never expected them to return in this fashion. I was one of those New Yorkers who dropped everything in the summer of 1969 and flocked to Woodstock when I was working at a nearby summer camp at the ripe old age of 17! What a time it was. What a singer SHE was -- and still is. The world needs peaceful leaders like Joan Baez now MORE THAN EVER.
Hearing Baez sing this, I am once again a teenager at a Peace Rally. It's amazing how a simple song (and beautiful voice) can restore my hope for (if not faith in) humanity.
Her performance has a Roy Orbison quality to it. She doesn’t move from her spot for the entire 4 minute performance. No drama, no theatrics. She lets her voice dominate the stage and have 400,000 plus captivated and amazed. A talent not of this earth!
This is by far the best and purest song ever made. This song tells the world how we shall live our life. And just the fact that this was from woodstock makes this the best version of them all! Love Joan Baez Love the 60´s Love Peace! All we are saying is give peach a chanse!
Das sind Erinnerungen die uns keiner nehmen kann, ich denke noch heute sehr gerne an diese schöne Zeit zurück. Diese Songs haben ein wenig unser Leben geprägt.
However, deep the valley of despair, however, long the tunnel may seem this song gives me strength to never give up. Why? Because love has ultimately always triumphed over hate. It may take days, months, years, decades even centuries but man will one day overcome inequality and all men will get equal opportunities to live a better, fuller life. Thank you Pete Seeger, Joan Baez. Salute the African American Civil rights movement and all other movements to throw off the yoke of tyranny. You may call me a dreamer but I'm not the only one
She gives me chills when she passes through different notes singing the chorus "deep in my heart I know that I do believe...". I have never listen something like this...
Eins der schönsten Friedenslieder einer wahren Friedensikone. Möge sich dieses Lied in die Herzen aller verankern. Thank you for this and all your other songs of freedom, Joan Beaz.
This song always makes me want to cry. In a good way though. It's beautiful and gives me hope. I'm still in highschool but I hate all of the hate in the world and this kind of music makes me feel a little better. I hope someday everyone could just learn to live in peace and love. We WILL overcome.
About 15 years ago on a hot summers day in August, I was sitting in a park in Paris which backed onto some old apartments. Out of one open balcony came this recording of an amazing voice singing old American folk songs - I called up and asked the people there who it was - it turned out to be JB and I've never forgotten it.
I am very glad to know this. at least my comment was useful for me to gather that her songs are still an important message for youth. thanks to all young people who still feel like this.
My first time hearing this, and its tearing me up; just the idea that one day love and goodwill for our fellow man will conquer hate. I'm normally a very unemotional guy!!!
Wir saßen damals am Lagerfeuer und einer hatte eine Gitarre mit. Und wir sangen das Lied wie im Chor. Es war eine unvergessliche Zeit. Wir haben lange über Gott und die Welt diskutiert.
I first learned about her music from my first science adviser. Ever since her music has been a link between music and science. What a dream to learn to play the guitar her way! I just read part of her impressive biography. It is impressive not only for her talent but for how much she has given to others through her music! Thank You Joan Baez for touching so many lives!
With the major governments of the world being the way they have been since World War One, we've needed this song long before it ever existed. We need it even more today it seems, but most new ears don't seem to care to hear it nor it's message.
wenn die menschen doch nur dieses lied - das so wunderbar gesungen wird - sich zu herzen nehmen würden. ja das herz muß von unserem vater im himmel , tief berührt werden - dann werden wir befähigt den frieden zu leben und unsere mitmenschen als brüder und schwestern zu sehen. es ist an der zeit, damit anzufangen.......
+Bluzme - No one will probably ever know the reason. hate crazed ideas of what is correct. If only 'we' would live by the idea of ' do unto others as we would have others do unto us and love our neighbor as ourselves. Of course this means we must realize what love is.
We with Asperger's can overcome our awkward and repulsive behaviors. I truly believe every one of us on the autism spectrum can, with the right mindset, overcome what social difficulties handicap us mentally, and which bring needless distress to those around us. A thousand thank yous to Joan Baez for this beautiful cover of a beautiful song.
In the 60s students protested about injustices to the downtrodden in the world. Nowadays they only protest about things which affect them directly. Things are very different from the days when 10 of us would crowd into the only car around - someone's beaten up beetle to go to a protest march!
i do believe ....i´m convinced... we will overcome!!!
and LOVE is the key. light & blessings to all of us.
So beautiful ! Made a grown man cry with pleasure!
This song is timeless and never more needed than now in this crazy world
Quelle voix,quel amour.C'est l'ame qui chante et nous te croyons.
Mais pourquoi ne pas lui avoir attribué le Prix Nobel de la Paix.

Jennifer Trippeer Soon Jesus is coming and Yes,, he Will overcome and judge this world for its sin
I went to artschool with Joanie at BU. She was just as much a naturally gifted visual artist. An amazing talent.
I love Joan and her commitment to world peace. Thank you!
My mother's favorite song. Missed you. We shall sing together in heaven someday!
We shall overcome someday.
Beautiful song and beautiful voice. I love this. May god bless her.
this songs influecened my life-and i still believe in those visions and pass it on as much as i can

Still praying for Iran and all the good Persian people. I know the people of Iran will eventually prevail.
Joe hill
don't thank. she was also against the shah. she doesn't know what she wants.
That's leftists, always wishes for best but bringing havoc.
Yes, Iran needs female-leader supremacism like in the west, LGBT parades, tattoos, censorship to protect these ideas and mega-corporations dumping 1000000 iPhones, BMWs --- to save humanity.
The sincerity in her eyes provides such a guiding light... if it doesnt give hope, i don't know what does.
She is singing in Woodstock Festival,

I love this so much it brings so much joy to me and her voice stunning and she’s very beautiful 😍

The voice & the idea probably shall live forever.
That voice is unmistakable...so many singers today are nothings but effects. I wouldnt mind listening to that song for an hour straight. Splendid!
Wow you wrote this 10 years ago dang
This song as brought me comfort and I really need it.
Me too
One of the truest, purest voices of all time.
tony tanner I herd better
@@ambassador8524 - Impossible - Judith Durham, Sissel, Carrie Underwood, Eva Cassidy maybe come close
Cap
She always centers my heart /spirit, and soul +she is such a peace, and feminist icon and activist God-bless her!
Hearing Baez sing this, I am once again a teenager at a Peace Rally. It's amazing how a simple song (and beautiful voice) can restore my hope for (if not faith in) humanity.
It's amazing -- this is sung live without electronic tricks, echo chambers, or anything more complex than a guitar.
Peter G. Miller How the best folk music is played, acoustic guitar and vocal
Peter G. Miller
And she was 6 month pregnant!
As far as I know, a mic is still a human artefact (a "trick") - just like guitars ;)
Her performance has a Roy Orbison quality to it. She doesn’t move from her spot for the entire 4 minute performance. No drama, no theatrics. She lets her voice dominate the stage and have 400,000 plus captivated and amazed. A talent not of this earth!
I could listen to this all day - I should listen to this every day!
Wonderful stuff .Beautiful lady with a beautiful voice.
Sometimes in life I need a reboot / reset and this track does it well for me every time I feel so weighed down and defeated.
昭和天皇崩御の前夜のNHK特集では“We shall overcome”が取り上げられて、この歌がどのようにして生まれどのように歌い継がれて来たかをルポルタージュしていた。その中でジョーン・バエズも当然取り上げられていたし、特に日本ではこの歌はジョーン・バエズによって知られるようになったと思う。
Wikipediaのジョーン・バエズの内容はちょっと酷くて来日の事すら触れていないけど、1967年1月に来日公演して、この時はこの歌を日本語で♪勝利の日まで…♪と歌い会場の皆が一緒に歌った。あの感動は忘れない。
Joan Baez is another favourite of me - her progressive attitude attract millions. I salute her.
This is by far the best and purest song ever made. This song tells the world how we shall live our life. And just the fact that this was from woodstock makes this the best version of them all!
Love Joan Baez
Love the 60´s
Love Peace!
All we are saying is give peach a chanse!
I was a kid when I listened this song for the first time and I never forgot it!
Какой классный голос! Песня знакома с давних пор. Очень красивая песня и сама исполнительница! БРАВО!!!!
RISE UP! Rise up and be heard.....we have a duty, to be heard...not just for ourselves...but for the many who can't be....
Thanks Joan. Sensational voice. A gift from God. Jesus is waiting and watching until the appointed time. He has already overcome.
Ich träume vielleicht, aber ich glaube das "Gute" siegt! Wir sind alle eins . Nicht mehr und nicht weniger.

It's true. Let's continue to be the truth tellers. We shall overcome. We shall live in peace. Today.
👆🏻❤️
What a voice... However times I listen to her... I wonder what a voice ! It is so feminine and so strong !
She gives me chills when she passes through different notes singing the chorus "deep in my heart I know that I do believe...".
I have never listen something like this...
Blessed Joan, with her incredible voice!....A legend of the musical Universe!.....Ciao from Rome, dear Joan!......
sing it Joni - these words bring comfort
Eins der schönsten Friedenslieder einer wahren Friedensikone. Möge sich dieses Lied in die Herzen aller verankern.
Thank you for this and all your other songs of freedom, Joan Beaz.

This song always makes me want to cry. In a good way though. It's beautiful and gives me hope.

Immortelle Joan Baez et immortelle chanson .
det behövs mer joan baez i våra dagar tack för din underbara sång
Uma das melhores vozes que eu já ouvi.
Joan is belting out that we are not afraid. I fear we have become so afraid we have lost sight of what Peace really brings humanity.
With the major governments of the world being the way they have been since World War One, we've needed this song long before it ever existed. We need it even more today it seems, but most new ears don't seem to care to hear it nor it's message.
What a terrific voice!! Strong and beautiful, with so much feeling.
Merci,Joan.
This is an amazing song and its performed by an amazing singerr !!
Belíssima canção executada pela voz mais divina que já nasceu na raça humana!!
God bless you.. Lady Joan
Happy birthday to you!!! :D
There can be nothing more comforting to ears than listen her singing a song which bring so much hope & desire to live more..
A time when music spoke directly to the soul.
Amazing ! great singer, great voice, this is so beautiful !
Bob Dylan and Joan Baez were so amazing. They both really shared some words.
beautiful voice, beautiful song. May we never stop fighting for a better world for our children and grandchildren.
What a voice.
One Person and so strong! Singing may be not the answer to the worlds problems but Joan Baez showed us a way!
wenn die menschen doch nur dieses lied - das so wunderbar gesungen wird - sich zu herzen nehmen würden. ja das herz muß von unserem vater im himmel , tief berührt werden - dann werden wir befähigt den frieden zu leben und unsere mitmenschen als brüder und schwestern zu sehen. es ist an der zeit, damit anzufangen.......
Nessuno dovrà mai fermarsi davanti alla lunga, tremenda e difficile lotta per la pace che Baez canta qua. Ce la faremo
"We shall be alright" I really hope so
Meilleure chanteuse de tous les temps
What a touching song. It's so necessary these days when we still see terrible wars, death and destruction in the name of god money and power.
Sadly its not so much wars now but our politicians devotion to a UN/WEF agenda.
We shall be alright. We shall be alright. We shall be alright someday. Stay strong. We shall be strong. Jan 2017. I need this song now.
Hong Kong needs this song.
With thing like the attack on Paris today, we need songs like this
+F0rDaQueen look also das weiche wasser bricht den Stein. Jetzt bin ich so alt geworden, aber es gibt Werte und Lieder welche man niemals vergisst.
+Geist Arminius Shut up fool you know nothing!!!Idiot!!
+Bluzme - No one will probably ever know the reason. hate crazed ideas of what is correct. If only 'we' would live by the idea of ' do unto others as we would have others do unto us and love our neighbor as ourselves. Of course this means we must realize what love is.
+F0rDaQueen this was the exact song I was thinking of following the attacks.
F0rDaQueen AMEN x
Absolutely awesome,perennially charming!
i'll never forget !!! thanks Joan
Thankyou, Joan! Forever in my heart, in my mind...my way!
JUST SO SPECIAL, THANK YOU JOAN WITH LOVE FROM ISRAEL.
Israel never want to peace, they always hurt others

Song of hope. I can hardly describe the light that this song makes me see...
Sempre grande e positiva!:)
Wunderbare Frau, wunderbare Stimme, wunderbarer Song (Wonderful woman - wunderful voice - wonderful song)
we need persons like this
We with Asperger's can overcome our awkward and repulsive behaviors.
I truly believe every one of us on the autism spectrum can, with the right mindset, overcome what social difficulties handicap us mentally, and which bring needless distress to those around us.

+James Torlage you are right sir
Wonder what this guy has to say about this comment after the last week.
You're wrong. We protest about a lot of things that affect everybody in the world, and I'm not sure I saw you on the street the last time ! ;)
You have no idea what you’re talking about
first song i know from joan baez, we shall overcome!! thx for u, joan!
Getting chills.
Wow. Beautiful voice 💯♥️
i need this song right now
Same. Been listening to it all day today for some depressing reason.
Me, too. Peace and Respect- Kurt Vonnegut said and I agree that "Love Is Too Strong A Word". Respect is what we all need to have for one another.
Hermosa canción y una excelente intérprete...!!!
it's May 31 2019
Mir Purnoy me too!!
Joan Baez, beautiful, impassioned and on the side of the oppressed and angels. Thank you.
