[TheNewJamIsIslam]

Islam promotes PEACE. peace to all <3

[anastaelsen]

@TheNewJamIsIslam I agree Islam promotes peace. It's just so unfortunate and such a shame that there are a few Muslims that make it seem like the opposite.

[solidus35727272]

[pera312]

Stop Messing with Cat Stevens’s People

[swatpark]

What a pure and innocent lyrics !, What a beautiful song !, What a good person, What a huge number of people he's talking about !, What a huge number of people who will love this song !, What a variety of people who will sing this song !, May GOD Bless My People and all the peaceful good people around this world.

[pr310nobama]

Today 20 Oct 2011, this song is in honour of the Libyan people who have sucessfully with help fron, the UK, France, America, and otthers overthrown a brutal tyrant Muammar Gaddafi. I am proud of the role Britain and the US have played in making this happen. This is also for the Eygptian people whose peaceful revoultoution is being sidelined by the people who kept Mubarak in power for 30 years by the military council.

[seekingsalvation101]

@pr310nobama OMG! I'm sorry but you have successfully been brainwashed by the western media. Gaddafi was a good man and was dearly loved by Libyans. Learn more about him please. This song should be dedicated to the thousands of innocent men, women and children of Libya who were murdered by NATO and its rats for the pursuit of oil. RIP Gaddafi and long live the green revolution. Peace x

[pr310nobama]

@seekingsalvation101 I think unfortunately you have been brainwashed by tyrant Muammar Gaddafi.. AlJazeera has been reporing on Gaddafi's atrocities. They are not Western Media..Peace.

[seekingsalvation101]

@pr310nobama Gaddafi's atrocities? the atrocity was NATO bombing the wealthiest and most developed sovereign state in all of Africa back to the stone ages. I suggest you read further into the Libyan situation and not rely on mainstream news sources like CNN, fox, al jazeera, or itn to spoon feed you into ignorance. Long live the green revolution. Peace x

[pr310nobama]

@seekingsalvation101 I am not ignorant and consider myself very well informed thank you. Al Jazeera is a terrific organization. Yusuf (Cat Stevens) has been on Al Jazeera. In fact he was on Al Jazeera promoting "My People." He does not support Muammar Gaddafi, who was a killer and a tyrant" If Gaddafi was such a good man. Why did he torture and/or kill Libyans who opposed him? How do you explain the Lockerbie bombing & the IRA Semtex victims, & the killing of Yvonne Fletcher?

[Dharmakara72]

Sounds like the cry of God.....Yusef....you are truly inspired of God. May He Bless you in all ways. Thank you :-)

thank you for ur good song :)

[papillon786]

I Love this song Yusuf! You are a great Activist of Peace and Tollarance. Ignore these voices that want to cause doubt. Peace! xx

[Hanmaybj]

Dear Yusuf, I liked the song you made for Afghanistan much better. Drop the guitar and make the lyrics Islamic.

Please my brother!

[papillon786]

@Hanmaybj What's wrong with you? This is full of good values and so is Islamic (which is submission to what is correct). Don't you know "speak good or keep silent". Follow the Prophet more my brother and stop being of those that cause divisions and ill feelings. Peace

[Hanmaybj]

@papillon786

Wow. Just wow.

[786humaira1]

Peace and love is needed so much these days .Specially in the middle east , looks like a Tsunami has been released upon them . If the manmade Tsunami is this bad , I wonder how the Tsunami will made by nature. People instead of working for peace obviously are working for creation of a Tsunami of people and are successful . If the natural Tsunami hits ,I think this manmade Tsunami will settle in no time. Even though I wish for no Tsunami neither manmade or naturemade. God have mercy on mankind.

ويقول الله تعالى : ( يأيها الذين آمنوا إن جآءكم فاسق بنبأ فتبينوا أن تصيبوا قوماً بجهالة فتصبحوا على ما فعلتم نادمين ) صدق الله العظيم

[FASKSA]

@marokan77 يعني معناته انه فاسد؟

[marokan77]

@FASKSA akhi ana atkllam an mihrajan Mawazin (morocco)

[marokan77]

Many people in Morocco ( the true muslims) are against corruption and poverty..Matematecly, they are all against Mawazine...and let me tell Master Yusuf , many people who love you truely r gonna change thier mind and thier opinion about (the peace train) if you will participate in this festival of Corruption, and moral turpitude....Just think about it ,and ask for it!!!!!!!!!!

[papillon786]

@marokan77 He doesn't need your love if you can drop it so easily. Go love God like he does. This is not for your pleasure in morrocco my friend. This man is a bringer of Light and he brings people together and sings of good things. Get your men of hashish and give your women respect. Then you won't bring leaders into this world that abuse you. Peace

[marokan77]

@papillon786  n'importe koi!!! Mr. Avvocato))) if u don't know what i'm talking about, why don't u just shut up!!! Bring Light Here with Shakira and lady Gaga,,, together!!! when i say love (i don't talk about his personality) i'm talking about the peace train - the light ,, i wonder ,can it be along with lady gaga or shakira??? ...PEACE

[matemateca]

Salamo Alaykoum,

how tells you moroccan people don't want Mawazine, all people I know are waiting for it!!!

[clubbering32]

keep believing your Lord is merciful and kind not a punisher or tyrant

[marokan77]

Salam alaikum))) Yusuf islam ,i love so much (fi Allah)!!!! wa are Moroccan, and we are your people too, so let me tell you that your people in Morocco ara against the festival of Mawazine ,just i want from you to think about it!!! you're welcome in Morocco but nut for this festival!!!! plzzz just think about it)thnx!!!

Masha Allah Nice Video !!!!!!

[noshak]

Amazing mashAllah. Thanks so much.

[shoedoctor99]

A lot of people don't realize just how REVOLUTIONARY this song is... (not just the freedom kind...)

First off, such a VIRTUAL Collaboration with HUNDREDS of ordinary people to be part of the song, within DAYS...was hitherto UNHEARD OF!

And secondly, an Artist so well respected as Cat Stevens, including so many people's voices in his song....

A GEM!!!! (Y) Thumbs up if you Agree.

[MsTriplez3]

Love this song.Proud because this song was edited at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia..

[shoedoctor99]

@MsTriplez3 Awesome job, Malaysia :)

[alienatedfreak23]

when he was in Kuala Lumpur, he went to Friday prayers at the Mosque where my dad works and my dad got a chance to meet and greet him =)

[Aurarisma]

I'm really loving the 70's reflect on your vid !.. your voice is singing such a sincere prayer ~ what a feeling ~*~ it draws you in, frame by frame to like a revelation or realization .. the frames of the photos of people are amazing the timing of them ... just love the wondrous Eye of it all ! Love the Riff at the end tooo.. it seals it to perfection like an AMEN!! Its everyones Birthright to have love peace food shelter freedom ~ One Heritage ~ xxoo God Bless you Yusuf ~~smile ~~

[Msfil1]

[AliAjeti]

3 People don't like this - they are: 1) Gaddafi, 2) Ben Ali and 3) Mubarak.

[AliAjeti]

@AliAjeti 4) + Gaddafi Sohn

[XxDirtyXxXSanchezxX]

@AliAjeti 4...Bashar el assad too

[AyoubMuh]

@AliAjeti They're 4 by now, it seems that Bashar Al-Asad dilikes it too.

[ADMIN77100]

@AliAjeti the fourth one is hamad al khalifa ,the president of bahrAIn

[SoumoOo]

@AliAjeti Add to those three4) Saleh

[yourself65]

@AliAjeti :D Update: add two 4) bshar el-asad_Syria president, 5) Ali Saleh Yaman president

The Rest all over the world : Loading...

[RoadToSuccess1]

@AliAjeti HAHAAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

[Aurarisma]

@AliAjeti n the one from Syria .. God help the people... I hope God brings his rod down and cracks those dictators ... and gets the demon out of them ... In God Name ...

meanwhile this is a most sincere prayer of a song .. and the riff at the end ... seals it with an Amen.. (so be it)...

its a tall order to free Gods People but it is our birthright .. xo why we are given Life .. to choose xoxoxox peace xoxo

[persiantaha]

@AliAjeti Mubarak is in hospital, I think Ahmadi Nejad is the third one!

[raoulhery]

@AliAjeti it's now 7 people who are the 4 other??

[HOSSAM057]

@AliAjeti there are not 3 people only they are 4 : 1) Gaddafi, 2) Ben Ali and 3) Mubarak 4) Ali Abdullah Saleh maybe Bashar ElAsad also don't like it

[JJJadm]

[Eumel1003]

That's why we do love you!

Keep on going, Yusuf

[MissEVitale]

I still don't see how this song is going to change anything. Nice song though old NYC experience of mine.

[yoozuk]

lovely video and song, Yusuf never fails!!

[pr310nobama]

Tis is great and honourabe Yusuf. May god bless you. You certainly are a cool cat in a wild world

[murderousbastard83]

Good to hear from him. The world was itching for a Cat scratch again!

[asriamad]

Alhamdulillah Yusof, you sounded as great as ever. From 'Tea for the Tillerman' yes sir its been a 'Wild World'

[bdvzim]

My people! All over the world! My people!

[rjrocha66]

Keep bringing us back to our common humanity, one song at a time. Thanks, Yusuf. You've been inspiring me since the 70's!

[AzzaYaya]

loving it

[elpgr]

Hey Yusuf/Cat... Where on Earth have you been so long? We need people like you to speak up for the people!  And welcome back.

[TamiDawnA]

Awesome!!!!

[lesconcierges01]

There can never be anyone that will equal your soulfulness.

[bishisok]

Welcome back! This has to rank amongst the great Cat Stevens classics. Love the music, the words and the passion. Thank you so much Yusuf.

[johannawawi]

love it!! salam to all muslims..and to going to be muslims too..

welcome to Islam..the way of life!

[svart3n]

Great song, Yusuf. I'll sing along with you in Stockholm May 7.

[abbasshahbazi]

incredible song, unbelievable video!! 10/10

[SwAdityo]

Did you know that Michael Jackson was supposed to sing with him. He was killed by the same people who tried to kill Cat Steven. They are both Muslim, OK it's there choice, but also they are both men with a common message...freedom of speech, change, don't believe in people with power etc...and M.J. more than him is famous...but him C. . too is a man of influence. Love Cat Love to you and all the artists with something to say besides talking about girls met boy...

[politispittas]

Thanks so much for this Ysuf. Thanks so much. The world is so desperate for some "positive vibration" . We need you on the road again, spreading the word of Peace.
