Fabulous to see Taj Mahal and all these folks rocking. Real people, real music. How beautiful! Season's greetings to all .
Just seeing this for the first time. It's great music for outside, withe birds, butterflies & bees.
@@lesliebrown6428 Undisputed musical food for the soul.
One of my very favorite songs in Taj's huge, varied, significant catalog of tunes. Taj should be declared a national treasure.
Either a Presidential Medal of Honor, or a Kennedy Center Honoree. Truly worthy.
Agreed!❤
I love this channel.
I grew up in a small town in Minnesota and had no exposure to any people outside the USA. Or really even MN.
I grew up and ended up being a service technician for a global company.
It is so wonderful having friends all over the world!
We are all brothers and sisters to mother earth.
I love it!
I can’t hear this song (any rendition of it by Taj) without tearing up just a little bit. Literally one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard.
My goodness, I’ve loved Taj Mahal since I was a teen, and he just keeps going. God Bless him!
Me too, I liked him years ago in high school, went to San Francisco to see him.that’s not where I said we were going lol
We actually saw him in Belfast, Northern Ireland - best concert ever!
@@garythompson6427 Lucky you! What year was that?
just discovering him now ... better late than never
i am in heaven. Thank you
After hearing this Song my heart wants to fly away like a bee all over the world to safe the withered flowers of our earth.
pure heaven...these round the world ensembles are so fantastic!
Discover it right now.i just falled deeply in love❤❤❤❤❤
When too many musicians...is never enough !😍
Ain't no such thing, my friend. Throw in Rosanne Cash, & you're in good territory.
well put! Too many cooks did NOT spoil this stew!
@@JaydubyaX Strange..... IS IT STRANGE that Taj Mahal *and* MMJ both help me enter a chill - out zone ? both groups / artists put me in a great frame of mind.
These Peace through Music projects are truly next level World Music.
Goes directly to the heart and soul, something most contemporary music misses out on
If, by half way through this song, you don't have tears in your eyes, you just 'aint right!
I’m not crying,it’s allergies !
Ben Harper signing my favorite Taj song is a dream come true! Two of my favorite artists!
GOD-BLESS YOU ALL and the BEES
It's 5am March 19, 2022 and this song, these world beings, joining together with their beautiful voices and instruments for the honey bees do indeed rock my world!
Sunday, 2.25.24, 0500. Yes, first cup of coffee and these folks bring joyous tears! Thanks so much!
Bless you all !!!
this song & video are next to the definition of EARWORM in the dictionary ! ...in a good way ... a very good way
This is so good for the soul. These videos are irrefutable proof that music is the universal language, combining the talents of so many amazing musicians from across the world.
Thanks folks. Beautiful.
I was introduced to Taj Mahal some years ago, and this elegant, soulful and worldwide shows the beauty of so much music! The comment about honey bees at the beginning of the piece is also frighteningly true.
Taj is one of a kind-a true great
Sweet-swinging honey of a jam that makes your ears smile.
Makes your soul smile!
great song & excellent word play comment !!!
Yeah
That is life worth living
I cannot get over how good these renditions are. Enthralling. (And I'm a stingy mofo)
😂 agreed
Taj mahal, Jake shimabukuru, Paula fuga, Ben Harper all these great talents coming together I live in Hawaii and I'm familiar with all of them
There ya go again: makin' the goose bumps rise. Every. Dang. Time.
Love ya, PFC! You make the world a better place.
That everyone could live up to their potential ... what a wonderful life this could BE ! thank you Playing For Change
Wow. Thank you to all of the artists who represent the “Human Spirit” in this wonderful musical video.
The piano really is the key to this musical fantasy........ Than Rosane cuts in......
Rock me to my soul..... My soul. If love was w music..... Than this truly is love ❤️
At 3:30 in the morning this song got me popping and weaving, and tapping my feet on the floor , great song and so true, got me to my soul.
Rock me to my soul. Thank you.
My favourite singa. TAJ.
Remarkable. I’ve never paid attention to Ben Harper before; not hating just never paid attention, but damn he nailed it as everyone else. Wow Mahal is a treasure and I was just introduced to wide range of amazing artist. Cash furthers the legacy and her own self. KickaSS
If you've liked the Ben Harper stuff you saw here. Please please take the time to listen to both sides of his "Live from Mars" show. The first side is electric and the second acoustic. The second side makes me cry everytime, it's so sublime.
