bien ces sons viennent de lui et alors.... Nous sommes toujours admiratif set amoureux de ceux ci. Qu'ils soient repris ne peu donc que conforter son géni!

[MrWipkonijn]

As I always say...... often imitated, never equalled..

This is the best sing and song writer at this times.....

Coolio, I have smoked a joint with yah right here in Amsterdam, but after brutalizing this song....... |BOOOOOOHHHHH... leave singing to stevie....

LOL:)

[ciciiiish]

ı waste most of my time listening to past time songs but still ı'm very happy!

[boybigable]

no your wrong this song is about the end of the world .the coming of christ and the evil of armagedon!!!!!!listen to the words again

[hambone31000]

the song is about people wasting time living in the past (with bigoted ideas, racism) versus wiser people who live in the present and look at the "future paradise" (listen to the lyrics)

[TMtamta]

i luv dis song!

[fandango352]

MASTER

[casssidy69]

this song was just an answer on eggheads, thought i would have a look...not bad

[VillainAmage]

Fuck Coolio !

[MissVanillaPotato]

[stevedemeterparis]

[ttekcupycnan]

Don't care what all ya say , I Love Stevie since I was 8 , so ya'll know I'm Old ,and guess what? I'm white, matter of fact I don't think I could live without my R&B ,and don't care who who likes or not. Happy New Year to ALL

[robglazing1]

@ttekcupycnan Good for you mate, belated happy new year ,love steve wonder also

[lorenzino1]

Salut ! Je suis un grand admirateur de Stevie Wonder, et je l'ai connu en entendant ce morceau. Depuis, c'etait en 1981, je l'ecoute toujours et je n'en ai pas marre du tout...Merci pour partager cette video, c'est toujours un plaisir d'entendre ce morceau. Les 2 meilleurs concerts que j'ai pu voir etaient Stevie Wonder et David Bowie, tous 2 à Bercy. Pour les 2, comme j'avais de bonnes places, je suis resté scotché jusqu'à la fin au même endroit ! De grands artistes ....

[mynobj]

Stevie is the best but i must admit that Coolio makes this song amazing, fun, young so gangsta....i luv both but i prefer Coolio version for real it's never get old and the beat is soooo good

[analsculpture]

One of the few times you can say and mean A living musical Genius.

[clubland459]

@analsculpture Totally agree. A genius living amongst us without a doubt.

[tmwnat]

Little corn niblet teeth he has

[clubland459]

Genius. Nothing more to say.

[Duchounette]

@ Zolf2010 Eh ben j'ai dit quoi ? "L'originale du "gangsta paradise" de Coolio. Ce qui veut bien dire que celle-ci date d'avant le "gangsta paradise" de Coolio. Avant de laisser des com's de ce genre, merci de réfléchir ! Ah la langue francaise hein, c'est pas donné à tout le monde de la bien connaître ;) @ offyerrocker As i said it in french, this is the FIRST version of this song, you're right :)

[forget078]

nice song

[MrLaban10]

Holy crab what a music. Go steevie go!!!

[WhizGidget]

I didn't know Coolio's version wasn't the original. Just found out. *THIS* is,by far, the best version.

[xCOMPETITIONx]

is anything original these days?

[tekenareuben]

Best version of this song, Coolio's version sucks

[offyerrocker]

i wonder how many people watched this video just to yell at the people who think that Amish Paradise or Gangsters' Paradise came first (WHICH I DON'T THINK).

I know that this came first, but I'm just thinking...

[vhstragediahumana]

Tudo Nosso Stevie beijos me liga !!!GANGSTER!!

[Lulluu]

sooooooo geil !

[jadedheart30]

i never heard this version i heard gangasta paradise and amish paradise is this the orginal version of this song

[krazzykidd029]

yes it is

[narutouzumaki123456c]

Epic Failure...

IDIOT! STEVIE WONDER CREATED THIS FUCKIN GOOD SONG!

NUKKA!

[merl0c]

Amish paradise is a parody on this song. I suppose gangsta paradise is too?

[jthegeek]

No Amish Paradise Is NOT The Original.. This Is.. It Was Recorded By Stevie Wonder In 1976.. The Album..Songs In The Key Of Life..

[orschnu]

Stevie is one of them we'll never forget.

His voice is a gift from god. Great

[ProfoundImagery1]

It's the purest form of Gospel! The whole Song's In The Key Of Life LP.

[bugatti521]

stupenda canzone!voce unica

[DJGACHETTE]

Stevie Wonder en spectacle au Festival de Jazz de Montréal!!!!!

[Duchounette]

Chanceux :)

[Zolf2010]

@Duchounette euuh juste comme ça, l'originale c'est Mr Wonder en 1976, alors que les Coolio l'ont repris en 1995 ....

[weber247]

the Originals are always better, Stevie is the one. First version I heard was by Ray Barretto, very nice latin style, check it out. George Michael did one too, all before Gangsta Paradise came out. Respect!

[motowninvestor]

Stevie: The Movie

[SuperstarMKT]

Les paroles sont vraiments super, et dénonce queque chose de vrai. J'aime beaucoup, et je la trouve totalement indémodable.

[lanarko83]

tout simplement THE KING

inimitable

inégalable

indemodable...

[nicetoknowyou7]

oh so what, are you better than us because we were in diapers when you had this album. Thats ludacris! rubbish!

[Tarfy]

I was infatuated by this 'album' when you guys were in diapers.

[Rugerman205]

I'm a child of the 80's grew up with this Album actually on 8-track! I feel ya! I got the Remastered CD like 5/6years ago now!?!? Love it! I was going to ask what keyboard did Stevie use on this Album for those grooving basslines...I figured that it was a Moog. But seeing the Mini-Moog in the 3rd Picture on this confirms it! John Legend has Stevie's SOUND on a song called "MAXINE"...I always loved THIS sound and of course ANY Synthesizer! Takes me back really Synths from the New Jack Swing Era!

[Loki0115]

After listening to it several times, I must admit that this song is way better than Coolio's version.

[DCisMINE]

of course it is, nothing beats the live instruments in the back!! I mean I love Coolio's track but I mean, you just cant beat this shit!! Not trying to beef, just giving my view. We cool.

[exikoz]

@Loki0115 they are to different genre this is classic soul and collios is gangsta rap

[TheRunner75]

@Loki0115 You must try the Ray Barretto's version available on my channel. It's a cool one but very different from Stevie Wonder. I like them both. Coolio, I don't like

[trzcinarowice]

@Loki011Most people never heard S.W. singing it.

[CongoSandz]

he shoulda kept a frow.

whats with the relaxed hair? jeez

But amazing vocals... wow

[MOBTheNotorious]

I'm just gonna throw it out there that the man is a musician, and fashion is the last thing he's ever been worried about, his producers decide that kind of thing because they are less musically talented. (And have full use of their EYES, so they know what a fro looks like.)

[0marylene]

Merci ! Cet album est vraiment magnifique !

[domkeller]

he is beyond all styles. melody is his work.

[iloveivry]

énorme ,

la reprise de patti smith fait trés trés mal aussi

[tan1keratea]

nice

[fabou73]

enfin la vraie version sa fai plaisir de l'avoir retrouvé merci

[bongonoggin]

Stevie = Real Good.

[terava44]

y'a pas à dire c'est un bon

[queensda]

Never knew Stevie had this beat first. Good shit, it's type hot.

[EarthsAngels]

The Boomers did. Great, isn't it? My original is worn down to a thread. :o)

[emilymonica]

Yes this is Stevie and not that d-bag coolio. Remember when coolio blew his lid because weird al made that cut amish paradise (which btw was way better than coolio's tripe)? how can you get pissed at weird al when you ripped stevie to the point that all you really did was change the lyrics. never liked coolio after that!

[BabyBoomr]

Totally agree with you. 'And Stevie has the kind of CLASS not to get mad at either one, (that I know of). I KNOW I drove my neighbors nuts playing this over and over. But no one ever complained! Tee, hee...

[surreelism]

Emily:

I remember that shit Coolio said to Weird Al when all along he wast tha thieving bastard!!LOL!! I met that fool at a party in Lancaster, Ca. he short'r dan a mutha fucka!!LOL!!!

[nessa207]

c'est le meilleur, il a tout inventé!

[salam37]

It is the best of stevie he ever did.

[Soso90B]

both this and cooloi's version are very good songs

[HairMetalxxx]

coolio is a fag for gettin pissed at weird al for makin amish paradise knowing he stole his song from stevie wonder.

[SxPx310]

coolio didn't steal the song from stevie wonder you fuckin idiot!!...and amish paradise fuckin sucks it aint even funny its just stupid... n he had a reason to b mad..

[HairMetalxxx]

if he could remake this then Al sould be able to make Amish Paradise without being bitched at.

[SxPx310]

ya but watch amish paradise that video was tryin to b like the coolio vidio...wit that guy on the chorus...

[HairMetalxxx]

True this and Gangsters Paradise is much more different than Gangsters Paradise and Amish Paradise....

[SxPx310]

WHAT??...LOL

[cabrioleur]

SxPx310, think about Al's song as a parody of something really worth a parody. It actually makes as much sense as Coolio's song, except it doesn't glorify looserhood. Beside, it's a very good song. I enjoy it a lot.

[TimoEkhart]

@HairMetalxxx no he aint, amish paradise was a parody and coolio's version could almost match the same level as stevie's he has the right..

[NeverAloneForever]

@HairMetalxxx He didn't steal it. He gave credit and Stevie sang it with him. Credit was given. He just thought that it ruined the song. I would disagree but that's a whole other conversation.

[dmontero519]

@HairMetalxxx He isn't a fag, but I found it kinda messed up that he would get upset, because mockery is the sincerest form of flattery.

[bongonoggin]

I dig it the most.

[curvand]

Stevie is just great... Coolio got a lot to learn ;)

[mreggienigma]

sounds like coolio never realized gangsta's paradice came from a stevie wonder song kinda neat both songs are awesome

[BabyBoomr]

Wonderful! Thank you.

[skilomic]

Bien evidemment c'est le rappeur Coolio qui a samplé l'originale de Steevie Wonder ...Cet artiste est vraiment genial ....et plus que ça encore Il est tellement inspiré...comment un seul Homme peut -il avoir autant de talent ?C'est un Grand ...

[kikilaparesse]

Waaaoooouh je la connaissais pas par stevie wonder. Vraiment extra!qui l'a chanté en premier?

Dans l'autre version elle s'appele "gangsta paradise",j'avoue je suis perdue! si quelqu'un peut éclairer ma lanterne......?
