[chiefwahoo123]

i couldnt find the lyrics so i wrote them down. There's been times in my life. When the world was so cold Can't find a friend Anywhere at all. So my brother came to me, "Child you gotta stand tall, because life is full of sorrow, heartache, and pain." I woke up this mornin' My momma she was cryin So i look out my window Police lights are flashin' So i ran down the street A friend grabbed my shoulder Said these words to me Life is full of sorrow So i have to tell you this Your brother is gone

[Dmiller2611]

God I love this guy. Great song, great performance. I wonder if they were up all night playing or what cause the horn player's lips sound shot in every song in this set.

[onewithonly]

[Hurzeldipurzel]

@Dainawl There have been times in my life when the world was so cold can't find a friend anywhere at all So my brother came to me 'Charles you gotta stand tall because life is full of sorrow heartaches and pain' Again and again I woke up this morning my mama she was crying so I look out my window police lights were flashing so I ran down to the street a friend grabbed my shoulder and said these words to me 'Life is full of sorrow, so I have to tell you this your brother is gone'

[Useless2112]

Really don't see what everyone has against the trumpet player.

[guicuer]

Before you say the trumpet player sucks, make sure you can do better than him...

[bartekgrajek]

actuall i like this trumpet player.

[polaroidsky]

Man, give the trumpet guy a break. Every single video man we got haters...

[TaffyRaphie]

love the guitar tone

[MagicStarER]

LOVE Charles Bradley, now THIS is REAL music. My respects!!! But that trumpet player has to go!!!

[oMarginall]

This music is a TRUE Story!

[sidongack]

charles bradley is absolutely incredible. what a moving song, what an beautiful voice, what a tight band. noone had really touched on how great that guitarist is either, bassist too- tight! and for whoever said that the trumpet player isnt that bad "coming from a trumpet player"; im sorry but you dont know shit. he mis-pitches almost every note he plays the whole concert and that is just terrible, bad day or not. Wish i was at this concert!!

[racpembertondual]

That trumpet player it´s the only thing that the Menahan band have of the street.

[MrYatiel]

Soul music, soothes the soul.

[Dark13Kid]

I'm 17 years old and I think this man is a legend!

[MusicGeneration2008]

@Dark13Kid who cares about your age? music doesnt care about age...

[BroadWayJoeVideoShow]

Mr. Bradley I can really relate to your heartaches & pain. My mama tried to shoot my stepfather, she miss and he shot & killed her. One split second she was gone. But GOD is GOOD! Your work is GREAT!

[jamadh]

this guy is awesome he need to perform in Atlanta GA asap

[SuperTrancend]

AUSTIN FTFW I NEED TO MOVE THERE

[8bluecheese]

Real pain derives from his singing, tears want to come out of my eyes...aow!

[truthinfinite]

This is what we call a bad mo' fo'!



[wastedSCR3M0ranger93]

best lesson on how to scream... sing some soul music

[Nieves57]

Tunes Award Winner 2011

[trinerasque]

Charles, your show on Roskilde Festival 2011, was the best I've ever been to. You absolutely blew me away!

[talons12345678910]

also, people give the drummer a break.

[talons12345678910]

where's the trumpet player that usually plays with those guys?

[melanieatnik]

I Love this man. If I were in the audience, everyone would be dancing!

[revezmonamie]

You guys have to make a DVD out of Charles performance

[Creatiopoetic]

charles bradley is amazing

[agfreeds]

cut the trumpet player some slack he is not that bad...coming from a trumpet player

[LevSix]

Trumpet = dying goose. Charles Bradley = awesome.

[asienkany]

hey drummer put more heart into it

[jackofalltrades156]

what's with the crowd? no response at all...

[kexpradio]

@jackofalltrades156, the crowd was definitely into his performance. It's just hard to tell because we didn't film their reactions and the audience mic isn't turned up. But it was definitely a full and adoring crowd. He blew everyone away!

[illuminatioracle]

@jackofalltrades156 take a look at the mc, take a look at the crowd. rich, snippy, white, vegan, liberal closet racists. they'd sooner have a piece of shit hipster band like crystal castles or animal collective doing their plagiarized music out of their macbooks while they sing though autotune

[chelseaboy123543]

@illuminatioracle look at the uploaders response. nothing to do with a white audience. you sure you're not the closet racist?

[illuminatioracle]

@chelseaboy123543 I assure you, living in nyc, i get to see plenty of brooklyn's culture being bleached out by the year by those who want to use minorites as a mere back drop for photos for their piece of shit friends and family in the midwest, but ultimately are completely disgusted and want nothing to do with them. they pretend they're open minded and cultured and the post anonymously on brooklynvegan and gothamist real vile shit about their ethnic native neighbors.

[chelseaboy123543]

@illuminatioracle do not assume every white man who attends these concerts or listens to this mans music falls into that catergory.

[Cptheadstomp420]

@illuminatioracle yknow not all white people are rich new york hipster faggots right?

[MrRenniemihaka]

@jackofalltrades156 the crowd is white thats why.

[Alk3ohol]

@MrRenniemihaka What's your point. The band is white.

[WiLKORadio]

charles bradley....... the new king of soul??????

[itsglen9646]

Please come play Houston

[moxichick67]

I believe that Mr. Bradley wrote this song in honor of his brother who was killed by his nephew one morning.  Go visit his website for the full story.

[jimineedles]

exceptional

[Nieves57]

Awesome.

[nikkittb]

Mister Drummer man not impressed.

[jeffsolis]

Wow...what a lifeless backing group...

[jimineedles]

@jeffsolis they are not an indie rock band fool

[jeffsolis]

@jimineedles o.O

[makennarenaer]

The drummer looks so thrilled to be in the same room with such an amazing artist, doesn't he? Wow, no respect. Or he's just too cool for real Soul.

[4wheels8bearings]

@makennarenaer maybe the amazing artist found this band good enough to back himself

[brenfen]

@makennarenaer Just because he's not dicking around and smiling doesn't mean he's not into it. He's concentrating on holding the groove down and playing sensitively. Which is a direct and honest extension of his personality I would imagine. These guys are freakin awesome!



[stimuland]

where are Dave Guy and Leon Michels??

[fetermcblues]

OMG ...this is the real deal ...just fabulous !!!!!

[Kitcatcoat]

love it so much!

what bass is that? a gibson ripper?

[MeMyselfThatGuyAndMe]

that trumpet player sucks...

[cuttingedge39]

@MeMyselfThatGuyAndMe Haha I think you're right. I was thinking he was being playful with off notes, in some cool jazzy way. But it's actually pretty distracting...

[siffey]

@MeMyselfThatGuyAndMe If only Miles Davis were on this instead.

[Groktang]

@MeMyselfThatGuyAndMe

He does, but its so easier to play the saxophone. To be a good trumpet player is like to be a good sportsman - miss some trainings and your sound will be weak. May be he missed.

Bradley's voice is amazing as always.

[gbarassi]

@MeMyselfThatGuyAndMe don't blame the artist blame the brass XD

[MrUnavailability]

@MeMyselfThatGuyAndMe

I guess he probably wasn't warmed up, because on the other songs later in the show, he isn't so bad, but on the first one, i agree with you.

[FDMedic78]

@MeMyselfThatGuyAndMe from the looks of it, it may not be the only thing he sucks. Great song though!

[pizzaROX]

@MeMyselfThatGuyAndMe you suck

[gotanigo]

That's soul at its best!

[AdamoMoreno]

Give this man some aspirin.

He looks like he's about to collapse from heartaches and pain!

[dedlee2]

@AdamoMoreno hahahaha

[DejaDamascus]

give this man a gold star.



[irieapplejones]

heartbreakingly lovely.

[bryceman111]

This man. Wow. Powerful.
