  • its time to watch harold and maude....

  • Cat Stevens makes me proud to be a muslim.

  • charlie bartlet!

    

  • Shouldn't it be "anew" and not "undo"?

  • Islam is a religion of peace. Christianity has its fair share of extremists as well & always has! Tim McVey ring a bell???? The Crusades & Spanish Inquisition???How many Planned Parenthood bombings have there been? Doctors killed in the name of Jesus??? Millions have died in the name of Christ. What a shameful, closed-minded bunch of Fox News-watching fools making these comments here. No wonder the rest of the world thinks we as Americans are so utterly STUPID. ..far too many of us ARE.

  • @ebruceii Citizens of other countries never call themselves stupid, only holier than thou knuckleheads like yourself do. I could not care less what another country thinks of the great USA, they do just as much if not more crap than we do.

  • @mph122170 - You don't know me, dickbag. It's closed-minded uneducated, ignorant exceptionalist xenophobes like you that make the rest of the world hate us. Ugly American. lol. The dumbing down of our country continues...

  • @ebruceii I wasn't born in the U.S., so I can tell you with 100% certainty that  the "rest of the world" does not respect Americans, like yourself, who slag their own country. Go buy some respect for yourself.

  • @mph122170 - As i said, you don't know me. Now shut the fuck up and enjoy the video. :) Thanks much.

  • 3 people can't sing out...

  • @1oldwise1 (awesome name) The song runs through the whold film is all I wanted to say, not just at the end.

  • I have a difficult time believing that the man who wrote this song would condone or support terrorism. By all accounts, he is still very much a peaceful man. Please don't let your fears cloud your judgment.

  • @MikeyRed76 im sorry but to listen to a man as gifted as cat stephens who indeed was later known as yusuf islam is i smack in the face to everything sung about by this talented individual..... you clearly have no sense and thus should retract that statement

  • @Northdroid08 No need to apologize to me. Your fear and ignorance only gets in your way, not mine. I stand by the statement.

  • he becomes a muslim threfore now hes a terrorist? i dont understand that! thats why there are problems in the world ppl think like that! this man is a genius hes one of those ppl who believes that we become what we think about i can see that in the lyrics an when u can grasp that concept of life anything is possible life isnt about problems its about happiness an his happiness came from faith other ppl it comes from family hobbies friends places try thinking about ur happiness not judging others

  • nevr even mentioned his faith. I kmow where he donates his money and I know that he has offered to kill christians. I hate that it is true. The man who wrote peace train. But it is true however much you and I dont like it

  • i was there the man has changed yes he is a terroist now. its s ad how people change. i loved him

  • @SuperGuitar1959 - how do you get from "He's a Muslim" to "He's a terrorist"? Constantly amazed at how people can be so incredibly ignorant.

  • @SuperGuitar1959 yeah dude not all muslims are terrorists, moron.

  • I really love the course of this song, it sounds so different from the rest! so good track :)

  • The comments left on here are appauling. The problem with all the tensions between ethnics is the extremists. No one requires you to like a person because of their ethnicity, but either keep it to yourself or within close friends or learn to be more accomodating. Extremist muslims, have bombed places and destroyed lives. And extremist racists have also killed because of their intolerance and provocative nature. Both sides fuel each other. And before anyone replies, i'm non-donominational.

  • The only reason I wouldn't like him because he's Muslim is because that means he can't make music anymore. :)

  • His older music was done BEFORE he became Muslim. Once he converted, he left the music scene.

  • What difference does it make if he is a different religion? What does that have to do with you or his music?

  • This song was nice in My Name is Earl s2e03.

  • hating someone because of their religion is the same as hating them cause they're gay, you should hate someone for what they did not for who they are.

  • This should have been one of the segments in the 1974 film "Free to be, You and me" with Marlo Thomas and friends!

  • Makes me cry when I hear it...

  • @snootiepie same here. and im 13 :) Cat Stevens is amazing. i have a friend who doesnt like him and im 90% sure he only says that cause Cat is Muslim

  • the best use of this song was at the end of the movie "harold and maude" ruth gordan (sp) and bud court-

  • You can do what you want,

    the Opportunity `s on...

    And if you find a new way, you can do it today---

    _LOVE iT_

    Thx for Uploading!

  • You know what I don't give a fuck what he did besides make this beautiful song .

  • Such a great folky voice, where is the folk now?

  • @Morahman7vnNo2 its there, you just gotta go look for it. theres a sweet folk scene bubbling around the uk. "johnny flynn" is one of the big dogs. "laura marling" is even in the charts.

  • At 2:26 I thought the kid was smoking O_O

  • This is actually a hybrid video - motion shots are from his videos to "Father And Son", "Banapple Gas", and "Remember The Days Of The Old School Yard", interspersed with stills. A&M put this together to promote the Footsteps In The Dark CD, because by 1984, Yusuf had long since put the business behind him. But, I think it works. ^_^

  • hahaha i picture phil jackson and whoopie goldberg on that commercial..... love this song , its sooo catchy

  • I remember this song from "My Name is Earl", I never heard it before that but I love it, its ageless, and thanks to the comercial it was featured in I was able to find out the info to get the mp3.. : )

  • nice song

  • omg is a incredible song!!!! i didn't know it before the commercial...... it's beautiful!!!

  • same. Interesting how the simplest of things like commercials can get you introduced to things like music, eh?

  • you should listen to father and son by him

  • 100th rating

  • Whoa I remember this from when I was little. My mom used to sing it all the time.

  • Glad that this was in a commercial or else I might not have ever known who Cat Stevens is. Good stuff, going to go download it now for my ipod.

  • Commercial!

  • Awesome song.

  • yusuf islammmmm :). may Allah bless him

  • Actually it was google.

  • this would be a good cell phone commercial

  • ya it would good thinking ;D

    It is already on a commercial i forget which one though HMM?? lol

  • WHAT'S THE SARCASM?

  • sorry bout ur cat and this is a nice song

  • kool

  • I THINK THIS IS A GOOD SONG (:

  • you all need to calm down and listen to the song

  • Exactly!! This isn't a forum for discussing religion or politics or conspiracy theories. Just enjoy the music!!!!...

  • any other good Cat stevens songs i should listen to????

  • I love the song "Peace Train"!!

    And of course the hit "Wild World".

    LOTS of good songs!!!!

    It's nice to see young people rediscovering the music of the 70's...

  • it was plotted by the Afighanistanian's taliban

  • actually 911 was caused by Pakistanians, Egyptians, and Libyians true fact

  • I love Cat Stevens music, if he found his spirituality in the form of Islam, then good for him.

  • your retarded... he called you a liberal fag

  • i love this song so much one of the best songs ever!!! (in my poinion obviously.)

  • I also just heard this song on the iphone commercial and had to listen to the whole song. I also listened to Cat Stevens in the 1970's, I'm 46 years old. Too bad he became a Moslem. Maybe if he became a Buddhist or a Hindu, I probably wouldn't have cared. It's a great song though.

  • so he made this song right after he converted to islam? and what's wrog if he did? i'm a muslin born in the US. i live to lOve and have fun, party with people! you just don;t be close minded anymore.. there are aLot of good people out there trust me! i love u whoever u are, and all i have for u is the respect! peace

  • This is a very inappropriate comment!

    What does a person's sexuality or religion have to do with his musical ability?? Cat/Yusef has an amazing distinctive voice and a positive message.

  • who, you?

  • Hahaha!! Can't you come up with something a little more creative than that?? Besides, can a woman be a "fag"?? I thought that only applied to men. Hahaha!!!! Now are you going to call me a "lesbian fag"?? Hahaha!!

  • Yes, I agree it's a great song! Sweet, positive and hopeful! He's got a great voice!

    (Please see my comment to "GodEmperorDano".)

  • Is this an old song or a new one?? I never heard it before the iphone commercial--and I wAS A HUGE CAT STEVENS FAN IN THE 1970'S! It's a really sweet song.. Is Cat Stevens still alive??..

  • i listen to this version and then other versions on youtube and for some reason i like this one the best. i dunno y.

  • Yussef Islam is his new name, though. He was always different, anyway. I grew up in the 70's to his music. I miss him and his genius.

  • This is such a good song! And he looks a bit like Zod from Superman xD

  • keep rockin cat stevens you kick ass and will never die rock on

  • this song sounds like it was written for Sesame Street! LOVE it!

  • this song really helps me open up and exspress!! :D plus im olny 11 years old

  • if you want to talk about anything don't talk about his religion. I love Cat Stevens but he was actually a communist. Im telling you its a fact!

  • You mean political views, not religion.

  • the song and the movie are great and you people are a dumbass if you think that if ur american then that means your racist

  • wtf are u talkin bout retard?
