Cat Stevens - Don't Be Shy (Demo)

[ThePrettyingrey]

I can t see many videos here in Germany. restricted rights. even with old songs. thought it was only the latest shit. super uncool.

[csgoldengirl1]

this is one of my favorites from cat, everything about this song is perfect !

[jaziriable]

J'adore cette chanson est je les appris par cœur

[Babyhowdy233]

OMG this is so much more beautiful than the polished final studio recording!

[lovingyou2301]

it's funny how most americans think he's dead. NO everyone he's not dead the media just stopped talking about him cuzz he converted into Islam.

[chester57ify]

@lovingyou2301 I'm surprised that most Americans have not heard of Yusuf Islam, especially after the 11th September. Lots of Northern Americans leave comments on Youtube on his songs or his conversion to Islam. Some of these comments are really nasty, even offensive, I tell you. Some Europeans feel the same.

about him. They feel betrayed.

Personally I think one should just listen to the music , there's nothing we can do to bring back the man we used to know as C.S.: he's gone for good

[ATOMIKDOG23]

[Scaradur]

it is an amazing song wich let peopel think about somthing

i hope that the sentence is right in english

[mscrazyeliot]

What means "Demo"?

[matteotti9matteotti]

@mscrazyeliot basically the work in progress, not refined. it's the unreleased version and also the first version of a song.

[ericmilaneze]

@mscrazyeliot I think that means it was not released on any album, it was used just to present his job and then evaluate it.

[annastereophonics]

amazing!

[CaledoniaJeanne]

Love this poet

[aussieangie]

[pocuddm2]

I think I almost like the sound of this better than what was put on the album. It is warmer, richer, fuller.

[leonardoilgatto]

you're right man!
