@GGdota If you type in Overtone in the search of Youtube - you can actually find the video where they show the different voices doing the different parts of the song - plus several other videos where they display the wide variety of voices this band has
i honestly hope that those 14 people just dislike the general song and not the message because if they hate the message of the song then to be honest i feel sorry for them.
I love this song! esp in the movie! we have been watching it in our L.A class. I wanted to cry hearing this song... not rock.. BUT it's powerful.. the meaning of the lyrics.. very moving! I wish no one was ever racist! I hate this ..well..all this hate!
I love the concept of this song. I'm watching "Invictus" in my world history class and I felt left out because everyone else has watched it already and they all spoiled it for me... I'm not afraid to say that I cried many times throughout the film >///<
@danieljfm1 more like 1.209 people! ;) (listen to the lyrics: in this context, being colorblind (accepting everyone no matter his skin color) is actually very positive!)
if the world had leaders like mandela there would be a utopia but as there are so few people in the history of the world like mandela this will never happen so with that in mind we should look back on what he did as what could happen if we all work together
With almost the same rights. You conquered their country, imported thousands of them to Europe as slaves, you even made them slaves in their own country. I'm not pulling the "white racist" card on you, but you TOO, have to understand there will be consequences when you take someones land.
@MetaCrawlerz Like the Americans taking the Natives lands? Isn't that how America started? By dominating a country, fighting half of Europe to keep it, Trail of Tears and Monroe Doctrine and all that? Both US and SA came from Brits and Dutch colonizing new lands to for reasons good and bad.
@WarhawkMLKA I find it kinda funny that you think it's ok to take other countries with power, but it's not okay to take it back? I don't think it's right to just colonizing lands for own benefits, which is probably why we don't do such things anymore. But, there's probably a reason why he won the Noble Peace Prize, and is probably one of the most respected persons alive right now. And about that rape thing, well i live in a civilised society, where you're innocent until proven otherwise.
I never said that taking things was right. Back when this happened, the earth was empty and European powers were taking distant lands for their own benefit to create the world's history that it is now. The reason land isn't forcelly taken now (which it does btw) is because all of it has already been claimed with governments. Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize, as did Gorbachev, al-Sadat, Hitler, and Gore. The NPP is a liberalistic, left-winged joke that anyone could win for doing absolutely nothing
Mandela has never been mentioned in the news for years until this movie came out, then he has died down again. Civilised? Are you kidding me? That's sick. It's sick that someone has to provide physical proof of something that was known to have gone down. Do you know how many times criminals get away with things because evidence was tampered with? Or with the stories where new DNA matching leads to freeing an imprisoned man for 15years? Some civilised society.
We watched the movie in my world geograohy class, and I think it's quite powerful. At the time, I thought it was okay, but looking back, It's REALLY powerful and really good. :)

this has to be potentially the worst song I have ever encountered in my 20 years of life on this earth. On top of that it was perhaps the most poorly placed song within an otherwise excellent film that I have seen. I very literally broke out laughing in the midst of the otherwise somber, inspiring theatrical tone of the movie. Very very poor decision by the idiots that selected the soundtrack. There is no place for cheesy, unoriginal Christian-sounding elevator music in any well done film.
@ewise24 You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. Maybe this kind of music isnt something you like, but how can you say this doesnt fits the movie?
You're a dumbass! First off, with "artist" like Pink, Miley Cyrus, Kesha, Katy Perry, etc, etc, etc on the radio, I feel that it's hard to believe that this is the worst song you've ever heard. You're uncultured ass probably doesn't understand music from other countries. Secondly; the idiots who made the decision to use this group/ song would be the director, Mr. Clint Eastwood, and his wife... who probably grossed more money than your GDI ass will ever see.

@ewise24 i dont see u makin a film..... btw check how many views this has gotten. This song is perfect choice for a movie. Actually listen to the lyrics...
This was such a powerful movie. I was watching it and actually felt like I was at the Rugby World Cup Final. I found myself holding my breath throughout the match. I loved it.
@Lorncat "I'm not really a people person. To avoid people, I in general force myself to believe that all of my friends are actually cats." people can see why you can't understand sports, of course there are other ways to get through to people, but you won't understand any others too, because you just don't like people, including yourself.
I love this song i love the movie. i want to travel the world and just vibe with people of every "race". i believe people need to know how similar everyone else is to them. how everyone struggles and this song tells me dont judge people by the color of there skin. Love each other for the lives they have changed in there lives.
Thank you for sharing what life is like where you live, 38riss. I think the point of the movie and the song is that no matter what happens to us or our family or friends our lives are our own destiny. Will we let evil make us bitter people or will we rise above it and hold LOVE and God's forgiveness dear to our hearts.
Just because we live poor or rich no matter what it is hard not to believe that our lives matter and that their is a God who is so concerned about how we live it.. Choose Love.
you make it sound as if south africans are all cruel and have no respect...i didn't live during the apartheid years but i know many black people who did and they want it to go back to apartheid because it was much better then. Mandela is a wonderful person and he was a great leader but he wasn't jailed innocently.

@goggatjie7 I doubt that black people want to go back to the apartheid era VERY strongly. That system was for white benefit. No, not all South Africans were cruel- Donald Woods was a white Afrikaaner journalist who published a book that opened the world's eyes to the racist government. Mandela was jailed for speaing out and giving black South Africans a leader. What was done to Mandela was wrong,but he came out ready to forgive. South Africa will pull through, N'kosi sikelel'i Afrika.
@sucka23454321 i dont care if you doubt it, i'm just saying that that is what they told me..not everything was bad in apartheid but not all was well either..just like every government and every country.
Haha- I love you and need you now. Since you knew which language it was, you don't happen to have the lyrics to that verse, do you? I'm in desperate need. Supposed to sing this song when the "international day" comes to my school, and thought it would be REALLY cool to sing that one verse in Xhosa/Zulu.
This is more than Inspiring. Nelson Mandela is a truely amazing Man. He not only united a country. He is the shining light upon Africa and the world. Without him the world would be a very different place.
Are you a damned fool?!?! What country are you living in, huh? Is your only knowledge about Mandela from this movie? What kind of dumkopf would say that?!? The man is a bleedin' terrorist! I fled the country because of him! As a white farmer family, we were in constant danger and hired guards to watch our house at night. He said "All the blacks will get cars and houses", so what do they do? They kill whites and take their cars while the corrupted police do nothing!!! Even his wife is psychotic!
@WarhawkMLKA wow, grats dude. You've just proven what a small person you are. You locked him in a prison for 27 years, and pretty much treated every black person like your slaves. When he finally came out, and became president, the only thing he wanted was everyone to live along side each other, no matter which color you had. He could easily enough have hunted down all of you, and executed you. But no, he came out with no hate, only forgiveness.
Tell me, my friend, where are your from? Have you lived in SA during the apartheid? There's this beautiful thing called "government cover-ups." Do you honestly think the rest of the world knows what is truly going on in North Korea? China? Russia? No. I lived through this, I had to flee the country with my family because of this! Where are you basing your information from? This HOLLYWOOD MOVIE that the South African government controlled the making of?
He SAID he'd forgive people...was this before or after his wife starting deputizing gestapos and threatening children? Don't try to label me a racist. I know of no slaves where I live, nor have there been any for decades. I am currently in the USA. Don't be so simple-minded to pull the classic "racist white man" insult on me.
I have links to multiple sites and videos on YouTube and reputable news sources about the Mandelas, if you would like to see them. You don't have to agree with me, but at least see my point of view and allow me to present my evidence, besides the fact that my family has been attacked multiple times by black rebels (not racist, that was their color) who wanted the land and car that Mandela promised they would get.
@WarhawkMLKA Now, i don't know anything about your situasion in SA, but i do know how you treated the black people before Mandela, and you even had him locked away for 27 years, and the only thing he did, was to fight for the blacks rights. But yes, i believe you when you say you ad you're family was threated by them, but wouldn't we all react like that, after have been stepped on for decades. And only a few years after Mandela became president, blacks and white could actually live side by side.
@MetaCrawlerz My good man, I didn't do this to him. He is a terrorist. Look up his party affiliations and how he got into politics. Yes, the South African government locked him up, as they do any other criminal. But now look: Mandela's gotten his way. The newest president is accused of rape against his nieces and there is strong evidence that he did. They don't live side by side. Have you been there? There's still strife and conflict. There is peace in some places, yes, but fighting in others.
just watched invictus.. sooo inspiring indeed.. learned a lot, even wrote down some quotes from it.. " if I cannot change when circumstances demand it, how can I expect others to.."
Love the comments in the videos from Invictus. Everyone is nice, polite and open to the opinions of others! Although we don't all agree, we don't have to trash each other. :-) Intelligent comments!
yo kirklops, I get what you're saying, and i believe the song was meant to convey forgiveness and talk about the unification of South Africa, all I'm really sayin is 'colorblind' was a very poor way to put it. the songwriters should've thought twice before producing this.
But don't get me wrong, I love the movie, anything by eastwood is something i'd see, but when it comes to music, there's a fine line between artists and a fool who can't tell his dick from his guitar pick can you dig it?
@jimimann1 ... When I read that a second time, it just didn't feel right, i mean what i just wrote. Just to let you know, I wasn't taking a dig at you. Just meant it.... :)
this song is just awful and blatantly ignorant. Being "colorblind" is not what tolerance is about at all. It's about being aware of differences in people and accepting them, not pretending those differences don't exist
@jimimann1 ... As in all forms of art, the play of words is open to interpretation. "Colorblind" need not necessarily mean pretending differences don't exist. In context with the rest of the song, I would interpret it as - Giving no importance to color when it comes to personal or professional decision making in spite of knowing that the difference exists. And in context of the movie, I would interpret the word to refer to forgiveness, in spite of suffering racial vilification.
@jimimann1 Actually, I think by "Colorblind" it means that Mandela didn't see colours, he saw people, and that being Colorblind isn't being ignorant of differences, rather, understanding them, but refusing to hold that against someone. Mandela saw a nation of South Africans, not of Afrikaaners and Black South Africans. He was "Colorblind".
i wish we had leaders like nelson mandela in my country, pakistan is going through very dark tyms,and we just cant figure out where we should look to find hope
I hear you! Perhaps if we all had such leaders who are intrinsically motivated for the common good, we'd all be better off as a global community. We need to start uniting as human beings and break the narrative of divisiveness.
you live in the united states,i live in pakistan,and u hav no idea how much suffering in see everday ,wen i set my foot outside, i look to my ryt nd see ppl dieing of hunger, wen i look to the left i see disease, illiteracy and corrupt leaders eating up all our taxes! then there are these militants killing innocent ppl,breaking up families and spreading grief all over and there is no hope for change :(
i search for humanity, and i discover how inhuman we are becoming

Mandela was jailed for speaing out and giving black South Africans a leader. What was done to Mandela was wrong,but he came out ready to forgive. South Africa will pull through, N'kosi sikelel'i Afrika.

@sucka23454321 i dont care if you doubt it, i'm just saying that that is what they told me..not everything was bad in apartheid but not all was well either..just like every government and every country.

Haha- I love you and need you now. Since you knew which language it was, you don't happen to have the lyrics to that verse, do you? I'm in desperate need. Supposed to sing this song when the "international day" comes to my school, and thought it would be REALLY cool to sing that one verse in Xhosa/Zulu.

This is more than Inspiring. Nelson Mandela is a truely amazing Man. He not only united a country. He is the shining light upon Africa and the world. Without him the world would be a very different place.

Are you a damned fool?!?! What country are you living in, huh? Is your only knowledge about Mandela from this movie? What kind of dumkopf would say that?!? The man is a bleedin' terrorist! I fled the country because of him! As a white farmer family, we were in constant danger and hired guards to watch our house at night. He said "All the blacks will get cars and houses", so what do they do? They kill whites and take their cars while the corrupted police do nothing!!! Even his wife is psychotic!

@WarhawkMLKA wow, grats dude. You've just proven what a small person you are. You locked him in a prison for 27 years, and pretty much treated every black person like your slaves. When he finally came out, and became president, the only thing he wanted was everyone to live along side each other, no matter which color you had. He could easily enough have hunted down all of you, and executed you. But no, he came out with no hate, only forgiveness.

Tell me, my friend, where are your from? Have you lived in SA during the apartheid? There's this beautiful thing called "government cover-ups." Do you honestly think the rest of the world knows what is truly going on in North Korea? China? Russia? No. I lived through this, I had to flee the country with my family because of this! Where are you basing your information from? This HOLLYWOOD MOVIE that the South African government controlled the making of?
WarhawkMLKA 1 year ago
He SAID he'd forgive people...was this before or after his wife starting deputizing gestapos and threatening children? Don't try to label me a racist. I know of no slaves where I live, nor have there been any for decades. I am currently in the USA. Don't be so simple-minded to pull the classic "racist white man" insult on me.

I have links to multiple sites and videos on YouTube and reputable news sources about the Mandelas, if you would like to see them. You don't have to agree with me, but at least see my point of view and allow me to present my evidence, besides the fact that my family has been attacked multiple times by black rebels (not racist, that was their color) who wanted the land and car that Mandela promised they would get.
WarhawkMLKA 1 year ago
@WarhawkMLKA Now, i don't know anything about your situasion in SA, but i do know how you treated the black people before Mandela, and you even had him locked away for 27 years, and the only thing he did, was to fight for the blacks rights. But yes, i believe you when you say you ad you're family was threated by them, but wouldn't we all react like that, after have been stepped on for decades. And only a few years after Mandela became president, blacks and white could actually live side by side.
MetaCrawlerz 1 year ago
@MetaCrawlerz My good man, I didn't do this to him. He is a terrorist. Look up his party affiliations and how he got into politics. Yes, the South African government locked him up, as they do any other criminal. But now look: Mandela's gotten his way. The newest president is accused of rape against his nieces and there is strong evidence that he did. They don't live side by side. Have you been there? There's still strife and conflict. There is peace in some places, yes, but fighting in others.

yo kirklops, I get what you're saying, and i believe the song was meant to convey forgiveness and talk about the unification of South Africa, all I'm really sayin is 'colorblind' was a very poor way to put it. the songwriters should've thought twice before producing this.
But don't get me wrong, I love the movie, anything by eastwood is something i'd see, but when it comes to music, there's a fine line between artists and a fool who can't tell his dick from his guitar pick can you dig it?

this song is just awful and blatantly ignorant. Being "colorblind" is not what tolerance is about at all. It's about being aware of differences in people and accepting them, not pretending those differences don't exist
jimimann1 1 year ago
@jimimann1 ... As in all forms of art, the play of words is open to interpretation. "Colorblind" need not necessarily mean pretending differences don't exist. In context with the rest of the song, I would interpret it as - Giving no importance to color when it comes to personal or professional decision making in spite of knowing that the difference exists. And in context of the movie, I would interpret the word to refer to forgiveness, in spite of suffering racial vilification.
Just a thought
kirklops 1 year ago
@jimimann1 yes well its important too to not see people as so different that you feel you cant relate to them at all.
khatifabar 1 year ago
@jimimann1 Actually, I think by "Colorblind" it means that Mandela didn't see colours, he saw people, and that being Colorblind isn't being ignorant of differences, rather, understanding them, but refusing to hold that against someone. Mandela saw a nation of South Africans, not of Afrikaaners and Black South Africans. He was "Colorblind".

I hear you! Perhaps if we all had such leaders who are intrinsically motivated for the common good, we'd all be better off as a global community. We need to start uniting as human beings and break the narrative of divisiveness.
