The subject matter was cool, but the vertical video by far keeps it from 'the best' category. Seriously people, stop holding the recording device in portrait orientation.
I love how he asked the kid if he was coming to the show and he said no just hanging out in the parking lot, then offered to put him on the guest list.
Fo real. I was thinking about that. A jewsish man singing about how all the children get along one day as Israel kills countless Palestine children everyday.
@@alessandrodanzi8364Shut the f up. You have no clue what's going on. Hamas is a radical terrorism organization that actively puts "civilians" in hardms way and indoctrinates them to become "martyrs" for "allah" The land that refused statehood over and over and over again because they don't want to neighbor "the jews" and instead actively try to genocide jews from earth. You have no clue, you ignorant sheep.
The best part about this video is that the street performer didnt even know it was Matisyahu until they finished performing the song and he proceeds to tell Matisyahu he has a beautiful voice. Thats the power of music. Connecting people through love and emotion.
In his defense Matis looks completely different. His pipes gave him away but he switched from his Hasidic Jew look to a local surfer look. Great video ive watched this so many times and i still have a dopey smile on my face while i watch
Think it was the bass player who took the video. Matisyahu's bass player is Stu Brooks. Stu Brooks posted the video. Possibly him who started singing the backing vocals at the end as well.
I think one of the most wholesome parts of this is how the performer says, "me and my girl?" when Matis asks him about getting on the guest list. Dude just got props from the original artist and still takes time to think of someone else in the moment.
@S C dont have much goin on for ya at the moment hey. is this you're way of working from home (question mark). Critiquing a video from 3 yrs ago., have fun with that one.
I seriously love how humble Matis looks throughout this song. It's like he thoroughly appreciates that his message of love is being spread, but he doesn't need recognition to be happy for it. Fucking love it!
@Harriet Tubman Nice try, but there's no such thing in the Talmud. I know you're obsessed with Jews, maybe you should just convert and join our tribe. ;)
I've watched this video over 100 times easy. I love the song but that's not what keeps bringing me back. It's the look on the singer's face. Just the pure joy his smile portrays. And as we know he didn't know it was Matisyahu. He's smile was just the joy of making that kind of musical connection with a stranger. That kind of innocent joy and the music that sprung forth is what will keep bringing me back. Simply great!
But reality is a small coffee shop he changed a lot in his looks but dude who are you, it's good it wasn't me molested him but, how really brilliant life can be at times
@@kayleighlj absolutely he gave him full respect, adjusting his microphone and they showed him exactly when to start singing absolutely full respect full disclosure that shows what a awesome human Matisyahu is. In case no one was brilliant enough to pick up that he may or may not be there because he has to go to the prosecutor absolutely and there was a sum of money to be paid and who the heck do you think paid that money
Love how they both wanted to let the other sing... u could tell Matis was stopping not to step on the kids version and u could tell the kid would pause from singing to let “some guy who liked the song” sing parts cuz he had obvious talent too.. just a beautiful scene that I watch over and over again sometimes to make me feel good about humanity
I live in Phoenix & about 11 years ago I was driving to a job during lunch time & I was listening to the edge 103.9 fm and Matisyahu surprised the DJ and took over the radio and someone called in asking to hear the 311 song where Matis sang back up and he did not have it but played the 311 song and sang the parts live! Matis is a exceptional vocalist and this video is wonderful! That hour long drive changed my life. I heard music that I have never heard before and listen to daily. You never know when your life will be forever changed by another person who lives their best life everyday. Positive thoughts create positive minds!
hahaha and the dialogue isn't exactly like that either... how can someone comment and get literally everything wrong with everything right in front of them...@@Pannkakaize
@@miguelcostenzexcept those are two different quotes(notice two sets of quotation marks)and both were spoken. Gotta love when people try to poke holes in others comments and get stuff wrong themselves. The only part of the comment that was wrong was the ten years part.
@@dbfutral22 lol 😂 look em up! Try and understand where they're coming from. Everyone has something worth sharing. United we stand... Edit: shit! I looked 'em up 😅 I take it all back
@@imorokrYou only said what you said to sound virtuous and when you found out someone doesn’t want their homeland to be decimated and/or taken over by terrorists, you bite your lip. You’re bigoted and a hypocrite but that’s ok because that’s what makes you so stunning and brave! You go _with_ the grain🙂
Beautiful. Not just because Matisyahu joined in and they created an amazing duet, but because WITHOUT knowing who the singer was, the busker was just happy to have someone to enjoy the music and have a moment with. That's what it's all about. (Sidenote: that is some incredible harmonizing and duet work)...WOW.)
Tyler Debrecht its gotta be just as cool for both of them imagine hearing people randomly singing the music you wrote in a coffee shop not even knowing your there.
This never gets old. Every once in a while it pops on my feed and I just smile and have to watch it again. The best part is the guy not knowing he was performing with a legend lol
That's literally what just happened to me lol. This song came up on my feed but a different version and after watching that and singing every word I had to watch this again
How awesome and special for the coffee shop performer to be so kind to let a 'fan' participate and not realise who was singing with him!! What a special moment!! What an amazing song!! Thank you Matisyahu!! Respect
I never heard of Matisyahu before seeing this viral video and I've watched it numerous times since. It makes me smile every time I watch it! Such an awesome moment for both Kekoa Alama and Matis!
King w/o A Crown is amazing but just listen to the whole album. It's so genuine. There a few songs I don't care for musically but Matisyahu has a way with lyrics.
Four years on, still one of the most wholesome videos. He had no idea, and Matisyahu was sooo cool about it! I feel like this song is more relevant than ever with everything that's going on. Much Love All!
As an artist, the greatest thing to see is someone else doing the justice to your song! that is why this moment is as special for Matisyahu as it is the for performer.
Such a beautiful video. The smile Matisyahu has throughout and the musician’s honest reaction when he realizes it’s him. Just seeing the way they’re vibin throughout and playing off each other. As a performer enjoying having an audience to his craft, not realizing it’s the creator, thanking him for participating, and then seeing the switch to fan coming to realize who it was singing along. Beautiful!
Best video on RUclips. Whenever it's a tough day this song always brings a smile to my face. The vibe the connection between them and the sound is what music and life is all about
yeah, just before he said parking lot pimping, then "yeah, me and my girl" , um no I don't think so. he was trying to pimp on girls and then said he will bring his girl. funny though
@@rikky383 I've heard people use it in much the same way you would use "chillin" it's just one of those things where words evolve with time. Does seem a little off-putting though 😂
Words have power my friend. To me it's sad that that he walked away from his faith. He was so joyful and lightened when he wrote this songs. I was in a concert of him in Jerusalem in 2015, it was sad. Still love him and hope best for him.
i lived in park city, utah for 4 years. matisyahu played at park city live every year. by chance, he ended up coming to my house one night after a show my first year there. from then on, he’d pop in every year. he never told anybody who he was unless they kinda knew. he is genuinely the most gentle, wholesome soul i’ve ever met. i haven’t seen or spoke to him in about 8 years, but he’s a genuinely incredible human.
No matter how many times I see this video it brings me joy and a smile to my face. I find myself regularly coming back to watch it again and again. Thank you to who posted it.
I had to come here to smile! I just watched a video where a feminist told a guy “if you don’t have ovaries you can’t talk about them!” And proceeded to be toxic.
I still come back here often, truly one of the greatest moments to be brought and shared to youtube, unfortunately I can't say things are the greatest right now, peace and love to all, be safe out there, everyone everywhere. ❤
I have probably seen this video a hundred times, and everytime he say's "oh sho is this you?" it makes me laugh. You probably captured one of the most beautiful moments in music ever, and it's sad so few will see it.
@@stubassie For sure my friend. Matis has been a huge inspiration to me since maybe 2006? I heard king without a crown just out of basic training and was blown away; and when one day released I was a lifelong fan. Appreciate you sharing this moment with the world man. I'm sure I'm not alone in saying that this has re inspired my faith in mankind on more than one occasion. Take care.
I never really liked this dudes music much. But saw this video and then learned more about him and now I find myself searching to watch this moment probably every month or so. Such a great moment.
This gives me goosebumps every time I watch this video. I love Matisyahu, and I'm so grateful he's taken us along on the journey of his life, expressed so beautifully through his music. He is a national treasure.
One of my favorite things about this video is that Cliff makes eye contact with Matisyahu the entire time and even though he thought he was a stranger the whole time, he had a smile on his face and never took his eyes off of him. One of my favorite videos of all time
It’s that spirit that makes him deserving of the magic moment he lives through in the video. Same for Matis, he’s got such generous energy here, and he’s come across a sincere young man singing his song and embodying the kindness that’s the song conveys, it’s gotta feel good. And now we all get to feel good. Pretty cool!
I’ve probably seen this video over 30 times over the past year, and EVERY SINGLE TIME I watch it, it brings a huge smile to my face. Man this is something special. So glad it was caught on camera.
I've watched this like 30 times. Great moment. Didn't know who Matisyahu was before, but been listening to a lot of his music the past few days. Great stuff.
I first came across this video by accident (RUclips world) I'm totally drawn to it. I've never watched a video so much,ever! I had never heard of matis before but he has the best vibe ever. Thanks for sharing. X
Woomanchew bit of a different vibe, but check out Nahko, if you haven't heard of him. Great spirit, Aloha ke Akua, We are on time (live in bink studio version is my favorite) just to name a few.
Such a great interaction. The Harmonizing and holding back to lef tthe singer deliver he didnt make it all about him. So chill. Such a sweet nice dude.
One of my favorite videos on the internet. Anytime I'm having a bad day I play this video and it immediately puts a smile on my face. Matisyahu is such a humble guy with a huge heart. Bless your soul.
I can't help but tear up everytime I watch this clip. It is amazing to witness the joy in Matisyahu's eye's, body & spirit as he listens his lyrics being sung by this young man. Then to hear him sing along with him is the cherry on top. Most definitely a once in a lifetime experience for this young man that he will not soon forget. When you do what you love you are paid back with every moment. #passionatemusicians
The algorithm steals so much of my life from me, but every now and then it gifts me reminders of videos like this, that I need from time to time to feel a bit better about things.
I suffer from severe PTSD and am so incredibly happy I found this on RUclips. I watch this video now and it helps. I can't believe how much this helps. Thank you.
Clint is currently in jail (5 years for violating probation). Sorry... www.mauinews.com/news/local-news/2016/12/maui-musician-given-hollywood-break-is-headed-back-to-prison/
Stay in school. And if you want to go to law school, don't, unless it's a top ten program. Even then, it's not always worth it. Some of us would rather be playing coffee shops.
So, what I just read in this article, is that he has substance abuse problems, if you think putting someone in prison for that, instead of rehab. You're a special kind of stupid.
Themistocles Poor chap looks like he's being put through the ringer. I think we can all agree the justice system is far from perfect and as such a sentence doesn't mean much as to whether he's a good guy or not.
I feel like it really shows just how much the lyrics meant to Matisyahu that he even had to sing along in a humble way not to outshine the busker. I adore Matisyahu what an absolute delight to have sang this song with. I've seen him do several acoustic sets but this must have been amazing. Bless up🙏🏼☝🏼
One of the best videos of 2016. One of those special spontaneous moments only music can bring. Thanks for capturing this and posting for us to enjoy.
Jersey Mike I used to street preform all across the country. Music brings beautiful souls together. Love this comment and love your spirit
I refrain from cussing usually.But the first thing that pops into my head is 'fuckin A this is pure excellence"
Jersey Mike right on bro
Still in my Top 10 YT vids of all time, and as a bonus I discovered Matisyahu, love it!
The subject matter was cool, but the vertical video by far keeps it from 'the best' category. Seriously people, stop holding the recording device in portrait orientation.
i randomly think about this often
Me too! I keep circling back for another taste of this magic moment. ✨🎶💓
It's just so fucking wholesome.
Likewise. I saw it years ago, just randomly thought of it like 3 days ago and then today it popped up on my feed again!
Same, imagine playing a cover and your favorite artist shows uo outta no where!!!!
Same! and I always come back to this vid, then follow it up with the one where he plays a show with him lol
I love that he harmonize with him instead of just singing along with him. Basically a backup singer to his own song. Lol
because he always does the lead is nice to do the other part for once
Also it just makes him seem like a super Nice and respectful Guy instead of just butting in and takling over he want to apriciate at supplement
And he's not a very good singer anyway
@@npholmes09 incorrect
Man's gotta drink his coffee...
Im back after a few years. This one never gets old. Love it

Me too 😅

same...what are the chances of this happening? It's beautful!
me too,, Thus is what I want to be doing Yahshua comes back!
Me too man this song even it hits even harder now with what's going on
ok you win I'm 183 times
me too
Matisyahu's level of chill is my life goal.
Got that right. I’m afraid if I dialed it that far back I’d be comatose!
totally!!!
:-)
Yeah he looks so chill
It’s called heroin
I believe red flannel is the key to Matisyahu’s massive chill
I love how he asked the kid if he was coming to the show and he said no just hanging out in the parking lot, then offered to put him on the guest list.
@Nichole Victoria Real love!
@Nichole Victoria agreed, she must mean alot to him..im glad i wasnt the only one who notice that
He did get to play on stage too!
the kid was so surprised i think he forgot his own name for a second!!!
Anyone got the link?
Coming back here over the years. This moment and song resonate now more than ever.
I always find this song when I need it most

This was my thought as well. What a genuinely dear and open soul!
Without a mic, you can still sense the goodness of Matis' pipes, projecting those lyrics
Anytime this pops up, I have to rewatch it. One of the most wholesome videos ever.
Super cool how he didn’t take over the song and let the young man shine !!! He was deeply impressed by that young man 😊
This is my ‘go to RUclips clip’-always makes me smile. All the feel good vibes
Me too....
I always find my way back here every year
Me too!!

yeah, just before he said parking lot pimping, then "yeah, me and my girl" , um no I don't think so. he was trying to pimp on girls and then said he will bring his girl. funny though
@@jasonscorner8747 I don’t think that’s what he meant.. he said I’m gonna go to the parking lot and “pimp it”.That could mean almost anything
@@rikky383 I've heard people use it in much the same way you would use "chillin" it's just one of those things where words evolve with time. Does seem a little off-putting though 😂
Words have power my friend.
To me it's sad that that he walked away from his faith.
He was so joyful and lightened when he wrote this songs.
I was in a concert of him in Jerusalem in 2015, it was sad.
Still love him and hope best for him.
i lived in park city, utah for 4 years. matisyahu played at park city live every year.
by chance, he ended up coming to my house one night after a show my first year there. from then on, he’d pop in every year.
he never told anybody who he was unless they kinda knew. he is genuinely the most gentle, wholesome soul i’ve ever met. i haven’t seen or spoke to him in about 8 years, but he’s a genuinely incredible human.
and he put the dude on the guest list and sang with him ....matisyahu is a dope person
Oh he sure is! You have no idea how dope this guy is! Witnessed it myself...😁
@@Jaredthejuggler True!!
@@Jaredthejuggler No, Bruno Mars wrote One Day for Matis.
@@simonlhhhhhhakn8563 u got a link of that show?
@@drewallen7148 Bullshit
I'm pretty sure that this is THE ONLY RUclips video that I've ever smiled all the way through as I watched it...Thank You for sharing this!
No matter how many times I see this video it brings me joy and a smile to my face. I find myself regularly coming back to watch it again and again. Thank you to who posted it.
Same
This song absolutely speaks to my spirit!! And these type of moments just makes my heart smile hard af lol❤️💪🏽😎
Can't help but smile throughout the video!! So amazing to watch every time!!
I had to come here to smile! I just watched a video where a feminist told a guy “if you don’t have ovaries you can’t talk about them!” And proceeded to be toxic.
One of the best songs ever written. This video never gets old for me.
Agreed it still makes me smile
RUclips's algorithm paying off again. This genuinely happy interaction is what life is about.
It is❣❣❣
It really isn't, but it's a nice break from the crap!
Love come back to this video for the energy that’s kept me from giving up. If only there was this peace everywhere.
Thank you. ❤
We love it when Kekoa tells Matisyahu, "Hey, you have a good voice." :-)
LOL ikr that was classic.
Pretty sure it's him telling Matis.
"You look different"
"Yeah Man, I shaved"
He late recognized he sang with matis😅 his reaction thou
@Mandatory Late Term Abortions for All DemoKKKrats ok? Most random comment
I still come back here often, truly one of the greatest moments to be brought and shared to youtube, unfortunately I can't say things are the greatest right now, peace and love to all, be safe out there, everyone everywhere. ❤
This video is amazing because you can see him harmonize with the dudes vocals and not overdo him brilliant talent from both
I have probably seen this video a hundred times, and everytime he say's "oh sho is this you?" it makes me laugh. You probably captured one of the most beautiful moments in music ever, and it's sad so few will see it.
Wow thanks!❤
@@stubassie For sure my friend. Matis has been a huge inspiration to me since maybe 2006? I heard king without a crown just out of basic training and was blown away; and when one day released I was a lifelong fan. Appreciate you sharing this moment with the world man. I'm sure I'm not alone in saying that this has re inspired my faith in mankind on more than one occasion. Take care.
I come to this all the time. I've heard him live and this is still the best Version so chilled and relaxed love it.
In the world that we live in today; this song resonates even more! Respect!
I never really liked this dudes music much. But saw this video and then learned more about him and now I find myself searching to watch this moment probably every month or so. Such a great moment.
But the song is REALLY good.
This gives me goosebumps every time I watch this video. I love Matisyahu, and I'm so grateful he's taken us along on the journey of his life, expressed so beautifully through his music. He is a national treasure.
One of my favorite things about this video is that Cliff makes eye contact with Matisyahu the entire time and even though he thought he was a stranger the whole time, he had a smile on his face and never took his eyes off of him. One of my favorite videos of all time
I fully agree. As well, one of my favorite videos of all time.
I love how he tries to let him lead some of the parts and give the “stranger” the spotlight. Little did he know 😂
YES.. the smile on his face the whole time like he was enjoying the enthusiasm of the "stranger" .. it's a beautiful thing
It’s that spirit that makes him deserving of the magic moment he lives through in the video. Same for Matis, he’s got such generous energy here, and he’s come across a sincere young man singing his song and embodying the kindness that’s the song conveys, it’s gotta feel good. And now we all get to feel good. Pretty cool!
Right! The kid was so mesmerized by the beautiful voice 🥰
I’ve probably seen this video over 30 times over the past year, and EVERY SINGLE TIME I watch it, it brings a huge smile to my face. Man this is something special. So glad it was caught on camera.
Was nice how he played backup .Buddy was just killing it . Sang just as good as the o.g. He payed him due respect.
This video will always hit you right in the feels no matter this situation..
I've watched this like 30 times. Great moment. Didn't know who Matisyahu was before, but been listening to a lot of his music the past few days. Great stuff.
It must be such a trip to be on vacation and walk into a coffee shop and hear someone playing your song. He's awesome for doing this!
Steve Rivera he was doing a show there later that night. The kid already had plans to go
I come back to this every once in a while when I feel down and this really lifts me up!!
I still come back to watch this absolutely wonderful video. Some might say it was fate. They both sing beautifully 😊😊
I can't get enough of this video!! I must have seen it a thousand times!! You guys (Matisyahu, Kekoa and Stu) rock! 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Me too! This video makes me happy for some reason I seem to be addicted
Tammy Hesler same here!! And I don't normally listen to reggae but, this video just makes me want to sing along!! Peace and love! :)
Little Susie SAME!!
Same here LOL
same here
I love that hes tryin to drink, but the music makes him sing along
I first came across this video by accident (RUclips world) I'm totally drawn to it. I've never watched a video so much,ever! I had never heard of matis before but he has the best vibe ever. Thanks for sharing. X
Woomanchew bit of a different vibe, but check out Nahko, if you haven't heard of him. Great spirit, Aloha ke Akua, We are on time (live in bink studio version is my favorite) just to name a few.
me too
Such a great interaction. The Harmonizing and holding back to lef tthe singer deliver he didnt make it all about him. So chill. Such a sweet nice dude.
One of my favorite videos on the internet. Anytime I'm having a bad day I play this video and it immediately puts a smile on my face. Matisyahu is such a humble guy with a huge heart. Bless your soul.
I can't help but tear up everytime I watch this clip. It is amazing to witness the joy in Matisyahu's eye's, body & spirit as he listens his lyrics being sung by this young man. Then to hear him sing along with him is the cherry on top. Most definitely a once in a lifetime experience for this young man that he will not soon forget. When you do what you love you are paid back with every moment. #passionatemusicians
I love everything about this video.
Two lads enjoying themselves immensely. Pure.
The algorithm steals so much of my life from me, but every now and then it gifts me reminders of videos like this, that I need from time to time to feel a bit better about things.
Who is listening to this awesome video in 2020?
I'm back for more. I can't help it.
Yeet, one day.
I am listening to it in 2020.
Juanchi B This guy is🤙🏻
At least once a month for the rest of my life prolly lol
I suffer from severe PTSD and am so incredibly happy I found this on RUclips. I watch this video now and it helps. I can't believe how much this helps. Thank you.
Same here. Hang in there brother.
Me too brothers, same same. 💚
Same here man. I got PTSD too. I hope you're keeping up.
Still makes me tear up after 50 watches.
I like the fact he put him and his girl on list for special guests at his concert.. just randomly.. Talk about a special moment
I love how Matis is humble enough to invite the guy to his show after too, even when he didn't know it was his song
He knew it was his song what are you talking about?
@@rtotheizzle he literally says in the video "i didn't know it was you, you look so different"
Exactly, so he knew exactly who Matisyahu is and knew it was his song. @@anthtistic
this video is making me feel a lot better and i didnt even know that i needed to feel better.
Clint is currently in jail (5 years for violating probation). Sorry... www.mauinews.com/news/local-news/2016/12/maui-musician-given-hollywood-break-is-headed-back-to-prison/
Stay in school. And if you want to go to law school, don't, unless it's a top ten program. Even then, it's not always worth it. Some of us would rather be playing coffee shops.
And please enlighten us, what do you do for a living?
So, what I just read in this article, is that he has substance abuse problems, if you think putting someone in prison for that, instead of rehab. You're a special kind of stupid.
Themistocles Poor chap looks like he's being put through the ringer. I think we can all agree the justice system is far from perfect and as such a sentence doesn't mean much as to whether he's a good guy or not.
Pure joy and love. I could watch this over and over and over again.
2024
This goes down as one of my all-time favorite videos. I could watch it over and over again.
Watch it again. Tell me Matisyahu doesn't look pregnant
Ive felt for years that this is literally the best video on youtube.
The fact that he had no idea he was singing with Matis is so awesome....
I feel like it really shows just how much the lyrics meant to Matisyahu that he even had to sing along in a humble way not to outshine the busker. I adore Matisyahu what an absolute delight to have sang this song with. I've seen him do several acoustic sets but this must have been amazing. Bless up🙏🏼☝🏼
The lyrics probably mean a lot to him, but the song was actually written by bruno mars. Crazy, right.
One of my favorite videos of all time not just of a musician but in general. The wholesomeness is so awesome
