[dserpaful]

Ray Charles is WAS THE MAN!!!! Legend beyond description!

[oscarlova]

he was the boss of soul music

[nathyfs1979]

amazing!!!

[Lew15CFC]

The master. Absolutely unbelievable, now and 50 years ago.

[MarciCow]

Sometimes, genius is so huge you can _feel_ it emanating even from a 90 second YouTube video. This is one of such times.

[TheWestdarek]

máster piano

[CrawSpecificated]

It doesnt matter for him wether it's the year 1956 or 1996, he performes at same level!

[MassacreLM]

I would give everything to be in that guy's place at 1:35 . Lucky bastard. Hell of a show!

[hermitwoof2]

Dear god, why can't there be a good, clear, unmuffled version of this song by Ray Charles, WITHOUT a lengthy intro, right here on youtube so that I won't have to pay for it? Every version of this song here is muffled, or he goes on an on before singing the actual song, then never really gets into it and goes on an on again as with the intro.

Please, someone upload a good studio version! Please?

[Pablo6889]

just amazing :O

[dziczyn2]

On nigdy nie umrze

[mvl134]

[dunboynee]

Ray Charles, blinded at 7yrs of age...... but to have 12 kids with 9 different women...... Like if you think he is a champion!

[xletiicia]

People, do you really think God will give us back music Gods if we give them shit? He most likely will make us burn in hell if we make this trade.

[weingfast]

Is he relly playing the piano? It looks like a playback

[chrissdj90]

@weingfast u killing?

[qwer4o]

@weingfast He's playing all right.

[daudaudoc]

omg okay i know im going to hell for saying this...how exactly is ray able to play black jack?....no laughs?....not even a giggle....well.....FUCK BEIBER!!

[Litenent]

Awsome!

[mrdabbleswithpotion]

anyways, whatever happened was not rehearsed. you can tell by how the women, the vocals, sighed a sigh a relief in the end.

[mrdabbleswithpotion]

i loved how he kept the whole crowd waiting and the woman at the center almost rolling her eyes saying:

"ohhh..... there he goes again.... being 'IT'S ALL 'BOUT ME, yeh, that's right!'. the way he got us all hung up in the rehearsals, the nerve!".

but then he comes through, so no damage done.

[noefonsecacorral]

will there ever be another Ray??? can he be reborn??? :( He was SO ORIGINAL !!

[padrecassiomarinho]

MTV: WATCH N' LEARN, IF YOU CAN. REAL MUSICIAN AND ENTERTAINER.

[thegermanchicken1]

das lied ist nach 40 jahren einfach immer noch gut

[jfisher84]

he may has no eye sight but i will still never be half the man he was

[beatrizgarcialaso]

Can do someone add the lyrics of this version? I can not understand all he said in the beginning. Please¡¡¡¡ :´´(

[MrMisisYa]

@beatrizgarcialaso chorus Woah Woman, oh woman, don't treat me so mean, You're the meanest old woman that I've ever seen. I guess if you said so I'd have to pack my things and go. (That's right) chorus Now baby, listen baby, don't ya treat me this-a way Cause I'll be back on my feet some day. (Don't care if you do 'cause it's understood) (you ain't got no money you just ain't no good.) Well, I guess if you say so I'd have to pack my things and go. (That's right) chorus

[MrMisisYa]

@beatrizgarcialaso

chorus:

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.)

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.)

What you say?

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.)

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.)

[assilembrandywine]

Do they make playing cards in Braille? That's the only way I could see Ray Charles winning at blackjack.

[sharpyjack1]

@assilembrandywine He can't even see himself winning at blackjack.

[Bjudge34]

@assilembrandywine He couldn't see himself winning at chess either, but he did. LOL

[WorldTASA]

Ray Charles legend........

[basteecle]

lets ask god if he trades ray charles against justin bieber

[MrNofrek]

@basteecle I would give thousands and thousands of Justin bieber for a 3-minute live performance of "hit the road jack" too !

[vicko620]

@MrNofrek The fact, that you guys involve Justin Bieber in most of the classical music videos comments speaks of his succeedes as a performer, so if you do hate him as you say, SHUT THE FUCK UP!

[29fansMJ]

How about this, God you give us Ray Charles, Michael Jackson, Jackie Wilson, Sam Cooke, and The Whole Temptations Group from the 50's Back, and we'll give you Justin Bieber, Rebbeca Black, and the Whole Jonas Brothers Group from the 200's back.............

[DJMetalstone]

@29fansMJ I hope he doesn't pass on this awsome deal ! :)

[MrUzzy009]

@29fansMJ i like how ure thinking ...AMEN! :P

[KyleSmithhh]

Such a legend.

[HarleyHagedoorn]

[binoyrakesh]

@AlessioFKT nice try, but its got to be a fair deal :(

[BedHeadBennie]

I really wished I could watch him performe live but like TheAron961 said He hit the road to heaven and he ain't coming back no more.

[AvidusVinco]

Incredible. All these losers on the radio nowadays proclaiming they have "swag", need to look at this, and see what real charisma and stage-presence is.

[knockout1981pro]

this performance alone kills the whole VMA Awards of 2011!!!

[marauderqwerty]

@knockout1981pro Great comment :D

[casiraz1]

@knockout1981pro  you got that damn right

[xXCurs3rXx]

[wavovideoeditor]

Greatest American artist that ever lived was not mj and not elvis but Ray Charles

[UchihaSurvivor360]

@wavovideoeditor No it was Micheal Jackson...

[xxRandomnameguyxx]

dayum, motherfucker can siiing!

[TheAron961]

He hit the road to heaven..and he ain't coming back no more :(...R.I.P

[xxgabyestradaxx]

I love his little story he tells ^_^

[ok2kok]

Who didnt like this ? Must be some lowlife racist

[TheMuratSari]

@Mauriz9shredd That's the irony you smartypants. :D

And Mr. Charles is just showing how to be happy while singing blues. Don't you see?

[daveyvandruuten]

is it me or are the black people awsome they invent all these cool songs and dance moves they really got soul and i am glad they are respected today atleast in most of the world ad we can all thank the man who made it happen marther luther king he is awsome

[Aeronaut10]

2:14 Ray starts to tear up. If you see the movie you would know why. He really feels his music. That's why Ray Charles Robinson is one of the greatest musicians alive to date. His music is timeless and always will be.

[ldyvixenne]

@Mauriz9shredd how can you NOT be happy to be able to make a career out of doing what you love the most???

[gangstarsonny]

If the Middle women told me to hit the road... I wouldn't argue.

[collinsrv]

@gangstarsonny HAHHAHA Oh man you made me laugh!! i was thinking exactly the same thing!

[kuahsayur]

9 people dislike. Dont you come back no more !!!

[HappyAitch]

I'm sitting here smiling lol the man good humour is infectious

[darthravo]

First time I heard this guy was after I saw the movie Ray. His music stems from the fact that hes just so damn happy!

[TheMuratSari]

He's just so happy while playing and singing. You can see it on his face. Seriously is there anyone else smiles like him while playing and singing?

[gangstaway]

HE'S THE BEST EVER!!! PERIOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!

[noho2001]

THIS WAS TOO DOPE!!!!

[RasmusJaque]

8 people are hitting the road.. let them stay there!

[tseboho]

That was beautiful.....

[knockout1981pro]

That rock he does and his smile is contagious!

[knockout1981pro]

Amazing Mr. Ray Charles

[ThatOneGuy1616]

He looks SO happy playing =]

[Jojo91913]

Wow I Love Ray Charles Songs Sweet Im Doing Karate Like Karate Kid Sweeet I Love Jaden Smith And Williow Smith

[brab1]

SHAQ!! 

[CarlosMachado13]
