  • is this a joke? i'm not tryin to be mean but everybody comments that they like the song???

  • Dear friend -yes I see it every day in my socisl work with homeless and drigg adicts -I even went so far as to living as they do for weeks -living on the street in a cardboard box just to experiance and undestand these people -and you know what -they ere the best souls I have had the pleasure to meet and interact with !-as they were just lost souls -but lovely ones inside -so most just shun and kick em -without realising that they may be in the same situation at some point in time !-thank YOU -

  • If you had nothing would U want this cd 'eeeeeee

  • Nice tune, great lyrics.

  • Kinda cool. Reminds me of Eddie Vedder.

  • how is poverty a bad thing? IF u look at it in the way that: if everyone in the world lived like Americans we would need FIVE earths to provide the materials and food we consume. the big picture is that this life style that u and I live in is the wrong one, so why are we trying to bring more and more and more people into it. materialistc items arent neccasary for life or happiness. food and people are what matter. so please dont think our lifestyles are any better than ones living in poverty

  • Hey there. I see what you mean...but I believe it's KELLOGS that has enough food in its inventory to feed the world for at least 7 years. `The problem is...we're not willign to share. We are a selfish people

  • Trying to be dylan-ish here :P

  • I like your style ! cool !

  • You have a wonderful voice and ability. So I guess you'll never have nothing. Good idea and songwriting.

  • really nice, great touching song!

  • Venus project (dot) com for the solutions.

    We should unite and make this the world we ALL deserve and should have had ALL along.

  • I know that I've listened to this and commented long ago, or perhaps I just lurked ... but I must tell you the lyrics of this song are SO heartfelt and SO real. Gosh it brings me directly back to my days of nothingness.

    Wonderful, Osvaldo, my friend. Please, never stop writing/playing/singing.

  • Beautiful video Osvaldo, good message. Sometime happiness is traveling thought life with just baggage enough. Often people have too much in their life and they forget how to live simple. Everybody would just have enough if it was all spread evenly around the world. You really don't need more than our daily basic needs of food, shelter and a safe place to be happy. I love my simple life and encourage all to seek simplicity. Thanks for sharing this wonderful message with us. Peace,...Mark

  • good message.

  • great of you to provide those details

    in the viDescription (s i d e b a r)

    awsome song!

    greets from japan, eLi.

  • Hey eLi...was here a week ago & completely understand your Sohra message about sending to those who really need it....I love you for being the kind hearted un -sell-fish sole that U R. Gr8 sidebar, Osvaldo!! Love You to PEACES♥

  • i found this gr8pieace

    on YOUR favs dahalinq!

    these are the kind of vids which YT needs to feature if this site is going to turn into a socially concious community.

    Osvaldo, its my pleasure bro. i'd love to see this get millions of hits.

  • We r on the same Page ...& Plante... Loving that u feel that way & dats like Atinfir Good Buddy♥ Love ya Darling♥Let's hit Osvaldo with our best shot***** Bang ...U da Man♥ Paula

  • Tis is great. I love the style, Bob Dylan 2k9 and the message is still out there, let us help each other and feel the need, share the love, pass it on. Thanks Osvaldo.

  • Reminds me of a verse from the bible, Hungry man knows no law. We are in trouble folks lets stand strong for one and other. If we all can just do that, we will get thru this like times pasted.

  • Very sincere, Osvaldo...You're a great soul♥ Paula

  • Unfortunately So Many Have absolutely no Idea what it's like to Struggle with little money,Homelessness.Our Whole Outlook Changes Under Diffecult Circumstances.EXCELLENT Song Nice Performance,Very Good.55 STARS.

  • I like it.

  • (WOW) So true ,we can all be there in a blink of an eye,Homeless,Awesome song,music,(BOB DYLAN)Powerful

    Smile & Peace

  • Very good song Osvaldo, this song touches people everytime i hea this song it reminds me of the poor people and how they live.

  • Oh this is fantastic. What a message. If you had nothing would you start living again? How powerful. 5*****!!!

  • Osvaldo, this is such a great song. I keep coming back to this. Great video also. I was once homeless. How do you apply for a job with no address? My friend helped me at that time. That extended hand was all that I needed to get on my feet and build a career and a family. I was lucky. We need to, as a civilized society, make our government be such a friend to the homeless in the US.

    Respect,

    Orin

  • Hey Osvaldo I've listened to alot of music in my lifetime, my all-time favorite is Bob Dylan, I'll be quite honest you really remind me of him. I wish you the best of luck in persueing your career and hope a record company will sign you. I believe American and the world needs more of this kind of music. Amazing dude

  • it's so cool ! I like it a lot . Thank you for sharing .

    nutier

  • I just loooove the lyrics, also yours?

    keep it up, great job :)

  • love the sound...its unique... everything sounds the same lately...

  • Great song...this is simply amazing! I love your voice and great guitar playing. The words say so much! Thanks for sharing my friend!

  • Brilliant song!!!

  • i really like this song of yours! >5* great lyrics, voice & music (& video 2)! faved...

  • bloody awesome song dude!

  • I like this acoustic style....keep it up mate

  • Very appropriate song 4 the times we live in and i really like it.

  • If I had nothing at all I would certainly have my own mind... after all that is the greatest thing to have in life. I'm happy as an Atheist... It gives me nothing and I give it nothing... only thing is free thinking... and that is peace of mind

  • I feel sorry for people that have nothing, and think they need to take it from someone else . Working smart is how my parents started with nothing,then build a little house with one spigot for water ,orange-crates to wash on, and they left this world, as honored solid citizens of their world. I shared their humble start.Teach your children "Thou shall not steal",But forgive them if they make a mistake . Beautiful song 5 stars

  • Oh great song! Really impressed and amazing vocal also! Really Unique 5*****

  • This is terrific.

    Your going to be a star(:

    xx

  • i love your songs so much i thik i forget sometimes how well done your videos are. this is really a great piece, the whole experience is good. and the song is provoking. rock on O.

  • This your song is the one i like best.

  • Great video OsvaldoPaese! I really like it.

  • very meaningful song man, definiely worth 5 stars, keep going!

  • hi ossie, you do what a lot of people like,keep your search sincere and your eyes clear, loved the song,good luck mate.

  • Great song Osvaldo! Got a nice Jagger like vocal over a nice dylan esque strum...Superb my friend!!

  • Hi friend! This song is 100% realistic for "If You Have Nothing!" GREAT***** Sometimes I come into the situation " having nothing" - it´s the hell! But luckely every period of this, gave me new power to find a job or money after 1 or 2 weeks in a legal way... So maybe i´m privileged, because I´m freelancer in the TV&Video scene. Not everyone has this privilege & tendency of extreme situations.

    Again Osvaldo: Your song has great Lyrics & music-melody! Keep on & Take care!

  • It was mentioned somewhere that you had a slice of Dylan in your music...I can hear it...but what you have seems a tad more haunting and more understandable.

    I like this song.

    If I had nothing, I don't know if I would try to have it all....maybe find a beach and plant potatoes in the hills, somewhere where it's warm...

    I think, most times it would be more relaxing than the world I'm in now.

  • sweet

  • I agree with Katlinrimier, you are definitely physic, fo sure !

  • o..if the economy gets any worse...noone will have anythng..not even freedom.....food for thought....greeeeeeeeat song...you are ultra talented...also a little physic i think...k

    Excellent song. Thanks so much for sharing it.

  • What an amazing message you are sending to us through your song !!!!!

  • Great performance, bravo!!!

  • excellent Osvaldo!!!!!

    5/5*****

  • Yeah a lot of schmucks would HAVE to "start living, instead" of taking more/more/more from those who work all day and get lousy pay.Greed is a disease that gets worse the richer a 'person' gets. Greed is why average people got bullied into BAILING THE RICH OUT. We got nothin but lost stocks. "TRUST ME MY __FRIENDS__" /McC, is a PROFESSIONAL bribe taker, always worked only for the rich.He dares to make up slander about the honest young guy that REAL people somehow  managed to get to the TOP!VOTE!

  • Great song and performance ;-)

    Wish you the best!

    Love mary

  • Very good!

  • The amazing video !!! Great voice and excellent song !!!

  • Very good, man!

    Wes

  • Thoughtful lyrics. This sounds like a social action provoking song.

  • One of your best songs... somehow I hear echoes o Jef Buckley and Lou Reed altogether... great lyrics...

  • Excellent song Osvaldo! Reminds me of Woody Guthrie. One of his poems are my fave. It goes, "One bright and sunny morning in the shadow of the steeple. By the relief office I saw my people. As they stood hungry, I stood wondering. Was this land made for you and me?" - Woody Guthrie. I think he wrote it in the early 30's during the start of the great depression. Funny how some peoples lack of respect for everyones humanity seems to have ran us back to that point in history.

  • Great song... can't believe it took me so long to see it... I'm subbed to too many people :( ---5*/fav

  • Excellent, OsvaldoPaese!

    ****! Yes!

    Gratitude, Love, Hope = Life :)

    You've got a great song and sound here!

  • the best songs are usually the most simple - excellent...

  • Truly an OUTSTANDING composition and performance my friend!Reminiscent of Beck's indie/lo-fi masterpiece-One Foot In The Grave.Beck took the hillbilly/blues/folk/ psychedelic/punk/funk/jazz/bos­sanova/rock/collage/experiment­al aesthetic far above and beyond ...where anyone else has dared to tread. I am seeing the sublime musical alchemist himself LIVE in less than 20hrs..Hallelujah! Please excuse my rant but I'm psyched...

    Dude your tune is beautiful...stripped down, folk glory, Amen.

  • Beautiful! Juliana

  • love the dylanesque lyrics and vox bro! *****, subbed

  • Great message straight from the heart!!

  • Wow, this song is really powerful. I'm sorry I've taken so long to check out your videos, but I am blown away. This is why I love music, no matter who or where you are it can touch you like nothing else. Keep it up man.

    ~DeBraun

  • this is beautiful, and you're so moving.

  • very cool

  • Osvaldo squire,

    You have weaved much out of "Nothing" a commendable featindeed. Nice composition!

  • I like this, I like it a lot. Will add you. All the best.

  • Essence of Billy Bragg, a slight seasoning of Neil Young but still a very distinct individual "flavour"

    I like it..well worth the visit

  • Bravo Sir.

  • This is brilliant Osvaldo. It's thought provoking and piercingly honest. For some reason I feel that if you were to throw Mick Jagger and Lou Reed into a vocal blender you'd be the finished product hahaha. Either way, good work my friend.

  • My $300 Nike's went out of fashion 5 seconds ago !.....BRAVO OSVALDO ! J=)

  • I love this song!

  • Hey Osvaldo, thankx for sending me this song. I was nicely suprised listening to it.

    Hope you accomplish everything you dream of, with songs like this one, there is a big chance you will. This dutch lady wishes you all the best.

  • I really like your voice, truly passionate rather than that corny boy band style singing so many acoustic musicians on Youtube use. This song reminds me a little of early Daniel Johnston (some people might not take that as a compliment I know but it was meant as one). If there's any justice in the world you'll go far. I really mean that too. Trust me, I'd never pay anyone a compliment unless I absolutely HAD to, I'm not that nice.

  • i am at that point. this song is the stars above. and that is something :) Thank you Osvaldo

  • listened to this whilst i wrote my reply to u. .. this song is great man, very nice lyrics

  • always love the stuff jou make

    good song writing hu

  • Ahhh, this touched my heart! These are absolutely wonderful lyrics! And I love the style of this song, it really focuses on the meaning of the lyrics, and the cause. I have always been, and will continue to be, passionate about working towards making poverty history, so I love this!

  • what an awesome song, you are cool, keep rockin!!!

    5*

  • i like it man, sounds great :)

  • Very Nice,

    keep it up. You do great work. It will only be a matter of time before your signed. Your

    a natural. You have a distinct sound,your honesty provokes in such a compassionate way.

    You are someone everybody should know and it won't be long before your someone everyone will know.
