Waiting on the World to Change

[jhhamm3]

@Blossom123 John supports Ron Paul!

[robertsfootball74]

everyone is way off. This is not about war or government. This is about our generation and how we arent respected and dont get the chance to voice our opinions. He is merely trying to say that we need to hold on and one of these days, we will get the chance to be heard. I hate it when people read lyrics word for word and take for face value. Think a little deeper. Its art, the meaning isnt gonna jump out at you, you have to find it

[outsiders1994]

plus im not like im gonna go kill civillians maybe if the united states people backed up our military we would be done with this war and people that say we shouldnt be in there we need to pull out need to shut up because the soilders didnt giver there lives for nothing

[khaoula490]

@outsiders1994 a sad thing is that they gave their lives for nothing

oh no sorry, they gave their lives to oil

i'm sorry, i don"t wanna sound sarcastic, but this is the sad truth

they believed they did it for the good cause, only it wasn't

[outsiders1994]

plus im not like im gonna go kill civillians

[Dante121284]

bellissima !!!

[outsiders1994]

all im waiting for is when i get sent off to iraq 2 stop all this bulshit im gonna snipe me some iraqies

[khaoula490]

@outsiders1994 you are an asshole!

you invade a country and hate its population for resisting??§§

i think you need to learn some history

oh wait , it seems like you're only 16, now i understand!

[outsiders1994]

@khaoula490 o wait just because my account says im sixteen dosnt meen i am and im not so stfu and dont be an idiot

[khaoula490]

@outsiders1994 well even if you aren't a 16 years old, but you sound like one.

and as a matter of fact you didn't even explain why you said what you said

[estevanmares]

you all missed the point of this song

[Mihalis51]

John Mayer + Ben Harper = Heaven

[ripopentheuniverse]

@Mihalis51 Amen to that!

[304Sam]

We need change. This is a great video.

[HaNnAhBeLLxx7]

That was a great video. I really enjoyed looking at it. It made a difference in me and made me relize things

[NotesCollector]

Time for change!

[SamAlford102]

great vid

[narusakugal64]

look, ppl r trying 2 save this junk bag earth!!!!!!!! u ppl need 2 help!!!

u will go to hell if u do not help

[krisng2241997]

the song is great! love it!!!!

[borkles]

great song, great artist, stupid media frenzy. When will you Yanks learn, that bigger is not better, and being 2 or 3 world power is not a bad thing. No other country respects you guys, you are merely the fat bully kid who picks on everyone and steals their lunch money.

[EnritherDarok]

If you're from the USA you can't give the comment I am replying to nor mine a thumbs down, because you have a biased opinion. Borkles has a point, no country has respect for the USA, and most do percieve the nation as a whole as a bully with a lot of firepower. Although the western word conforms to the values that the USA fight for, most disagree with the methods and actions in which they attempt to force their values onto other soverign states.

[GOTHDRAGON1980]

Its getting kinda old with the whole blame the US for everything , every nation around the world has done evil things to others and try to push their views on others.Instead of blaming each other we should work together and make this world a better place

[DXman099]

Whatever. Eithier You're Stupid or Blind. "We All have a based opinion." We Don't Bully, We...You Got Me There But That Isn't The Point. We are In The Bad Places To Discard The Bad Leaders Of These Gangs And Bring World Peace. You Don't See Anyother Contries Trying, Do You?

[cjdontthink2]

did abolitionists wait? did Martin Luther king jr wait? did suffragettes wait? did people who went to jail standing up for their rights just wait? did Rosa Parks wait? shall i continue? do you get the point? were gonna fail at ruling the system at this rate well drop to the number 2 or 3 world power is the fight ever fair? if it was it would be disaster it wasnt fair for anyone and the lesser of the fight won when people fight they dont look for a fair fight they look for ppl they can beat

[DQ20det]

all i have to say is this.. everyone has/had to wait. people who made an impact in history had to wait. everyone does doesnt matter who i was.. everyone has done it. everyone needs to do it nothing GREAT comes at a drop of a dime or a flick of a switch it comes with patience, hardwork, commitment, and perserverence. its not a question of "is the fight fair" it was and still is a question of "are you willing to fight a fight even if you know that there is a chance that you cant win."

[DQ20det]

are you willing to fight against the odds...

[cjdontthink2]

yes correct!

but what "patience, hardwork, commitment, and perserverence"

has been contributed to changing the world today?

[DQ20det]

yes in a way...id have rather tried and failed than to never had tried at all...

[sleepwalkingdiva]

AMEN

[relientksgoog]

@cjdontthink2 I get what you're saying, but I've always kinda thought this song was slightly satirical.. obviously he has strong feelings about America and the world in general in the direction we're all going.. He's not exactly sitting around waiting on the world to change when he's writing music like this, music with a strong message (think Belief), that millions of people hear, is he?..

Dunno, maybe I'm way off.

[NotesCollector]

Wow..no1 posted on this for a long time..

[danvov]

Know the lyrics...

"when you trust your television what you get is what you got, cause when they own the information they can bend it all the want"

American medias + 9/11 = massive propaganda. Bush = shit, son.

[dakotajaymusic]

too bad this video doesn't reflect the song's meaning

"when you trust your television what you get is what you got, cause when they own the information they can bend it all the want."

ie: bush shaking a soldiers hand

[gzapant]

wow. i love this song. it is so powerful to me

[warriorjames]

Indeed. And it holds so much truth as well.

[isaacfromorocco]

this is just one side of the 2

[kissxxmexxdeadly]

=] love this song ♥

[NotesCollector]

great video and song!just wait for the world to change!=) "salutes"

[24ashlee91]

It's great that other people support the troops fighting to keep all of us here at home safe. God keep them safe and bring them all home.

[amw9593]

luv this song nice how the pics go with the song

[Odiosus90]

Amazing music and a horribly real slideshow to it.

Makes me want to stay safely in my room till the world has changed.

Thanks for posting

[edgeman90]

The video and the musi was very touching and showed me that I'm doing the right thing joining the army reserves.

[Gavsterhawkins]

The song tells the truth.

[Steelerskid836876]

Great job...

[Steelerskid836876]

Wow, that was a touching video, thanks for putting it on. God bless you all :)

[D0llanganger]

aw that's sad

[swansonsuperstar]

guys, its not iraq. google "loose change" on google vids. watch it

[CutieAnimeCutie]

Awww, it made me cry!!! Great job! Love this song!

[freedombird]

Why didn't you use the whole song (boo hoo)?

[AnimeatHeart]

This is really awesome. God Bless our Troops! Thank you for the video.

[YankeeGirl226]

I love this. Thank you so much.

[ENDKING]

hi cool video.i like it a lot.

[mandagagurl1321]

BEAUTIFUL

[ilovemyfriends111222]

love the mesage be hind the song, and the video- WOW!

[Blossom123]

If John Mayer knew that you took his music and put it to this video....I don't think he would approve. He's a Democrat who's against the war. Check your facts.

[InMyM2Z]

1) Honestly, I don't think he would care.

2) Who said I supported war?

3) This is only pictures, set to music. I'm not sure why I need to "check my facts", when I'm not reporting any false information.

[weedtilidiedude]

@InMyM2Z

In your defence I would say the pictures are appropriate, they show the current conflicts that needs to change. I might agree with some pictures being "pro US. soldiers", but the slideshow as a whole shows destruction and portrays war as something negative, in the same way the song does.

[phl1ag1983]

@InMyM2Z Plus, it all depends on how you view the video. I think it's a song about wanting change illustrated here with some of the things to change.

[freedombird]

Oh, my, this is ironic, indeed! But it's the only version of this song on youtube, so, hey! Oh, and, STOP THE WAR NOW, TODAY!

[Willieheadable]

@Blossom123 i know this is three years ago but your still a stupid fuck

[chai55]

stop war!

[mikkio]

Good song, I wish I could say the same about the war... :(

[elchamber]

That's a good version of the song. Nicely put.

[sixshot1]

i love you all. god bless america

[ChewyCheerios]

Good job! I'm glad to find a video that seems so patrtiotic. :]

[mosef123]

I love the song no comment about the war and that b.s

[LaurisHS]

this is beautiful and song its also great

[girlskater195]

..good job.. i love this song

[Younggunner22]

i like this alot kid keep the good work up it could really help

[ltcoldfire]

Yes, it will help. What could be more help than waiting? Hell, forget about college, let's wait until the high paying jobs come to us. Load of BS. The world isn't going to change on it's own, so don't wait on it. Can't really tell if this is an anti-war song or not, but sure sounds like it. Great idea... let's withdraw from Iraq because it's "pointless"! Yes! Thataway we can have a new war within our own country! OMG, genius!

[ltcoldfire]

And people like mosef123 and mikkio make me sick. The war is not BS. You should be praying and honoring those who fight for your freedom every goddamn day and are still willing to take ignorant comments such as yours, with no return comment. It's either in Iraq, or eventually it moves into my hometown, your hometown, everywhere. Get over your lousy thoughts and face the facts.

[ltcoldfire]

And for those of you who hate Bush... sure, he isn't the best President of all time, no doubt. But Jesus, Joseph, and doggy-style Mary, John Kerry would have just about spelt the end of the United States as we know it. Terrorists were hoping Kerry would get in because they knew they wouldn't have to worry about being bothered by military force. However, Bush got in, and their asses turned to grass. Thank God.

[edgeman90]

i can kinda see what ur saying, yes the war is pointless but i dont get what u mean about forget college

[kylecali]

cant find it on itunes. tell me what to search under

[rafaharper]

great

[JoshwaBurke]

Where did you find this version of WOTWTC?

[Malacia]

on the WOTWTC EP..

[ThirdWallofBob]

Beautiful. The song matches so well. Great job, I liked it a lot.

[Malacia]

It's availible on the WOTWTC ep, on itunes

[kylecali]

its not on itunes

[ArcticDonkey]

Hey InMyM2Z

Can you send me this acoustic version, please?

Through MSM ?

[buck1504]

The world when change when American people stop being so damn ignorant of whats happening in the world and WAKE UP!

[Malacia]

the world will change when idiots like you stop judging a whole country based on it's idiot leader.

[buck1504]

More than half of you voted for that idiot leader didn't you??

You had your chance to get rid of that traitor, but chose instead to keep him!

I hope you dont vote him AGAIN (even though thats against the law)!! lol

[buck1504]

By the way, I wasnt judgint the whole country.

Rather about 50% of Americans, they were the ones I was referring to.

I know the other 50% are the smartest and best people in the world. :)

But that 50% that STILL believes that Iraq has WMDs, these people need to wake up!!

[anameicanget]

shut the hell up, you are not speaking for john and not even making a clear or legitimate argument.

[Malacia]

I'm not american.

[ronmexico0700]

ha, actaully more than half of us didnt vote for him, plus his brother gave him the present of taking all the convicts freed and innocent off the voting list, along with those sharing the birthdays, thank god for freedom ^-^ ugh.

[edgeman90]

Your right about that>

[johnnok]

awesome job

[tejasblues66]

Thank You.....

I heard this song in a whole new way.

Thanks again.

[stopthistrain]

Good job, man.
