Which other entertainer in the world would risk the rejection by NOT bowing to popular culture´s demands and being just purely original and still winning everybody´s hearts ? I ask you.
I wish I knew how to get my message to Gurrumul, I want to thank him, he made it possible to connect to people, culture that I was not born in but feel completely connected to. My soul and Youlgu can be same even if in different locations.
I am so happy I saw , heard this video, Gurrumull is the connection between earth and the whole universe I feel, know is there but unseen. I THANK YOU GURRUMUL, YOU GAVE ME WHAT I CANNOT DESCRIBE. I CONNECTED !!!!!! I sincerely hope you will be told what I wrote here.
@TheMarkadamsiphone Hear, hear, I agree. My ancestors are communicating with me and I was not born in Arnhemland, still our souls can connect with souls of Arnhemland or other lands. What matters is common likes, interests, ancestors who meet in the great universe, kindred spirits.
this is the most beautiful song i've ever hered. because of our stupid western ways people and music like this are never hered instead we end up with shit like lady gaga and britney spears. THIS IS REAL MUSIC FROM THE HEART AND SOUL
Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu you are awesome , thankyou for being you , your songs are more beautiful to me than the beautiful lands around you that you may not be able to see through vision but you can certainly feel it and see it from within your soul, and thankyou again for sharing it with us all through your music <3
wow, a new fan here. he just fell out of the sky and i love it. ughhh, finally something i can listen to through all this mess of so called music out there today, thank you geoffrey, just wow. From canada and loving the auzzis including aboriginals. i am not so sure of the state they are in down there but all i see is something special :)
@RickOnDaUpSide Hey Rick. Pretty amazing hey. Like most, its the bad stuff that gets the press, and rightly so. Always a few dickheads but 99% of us ALL down here live, listen and love and just want to get along. And yeah, Gurrumul helps that. A gift to us all. His ethereal voice reminds me of Ray Lamontagne. Bet you are already a fan. Cheers
I've got a ticket to see him play live 2 november in a cafe in Amsterdam, I am SO excited!!!
I'm waiting to purchase his CD there at the venue... I don't think the chances of getting autographed are very good though... must remember to bring some tissue with me. And that coming from someone who grew up on Judas Priest and Iron Maiden!
au travers de cette musique, l'on peut ressentir toute la sensibilité du peuple aborigène, quel talent et quelle voix, après leur peinture, leurs instruments de musique traditionnels, prenons le temps en Europe de découvrir leurs talents et de parcourir un peu de leur "walkabout", dans ce monde si pressé... Merci de la mise en ligne, thank you for this video
just so beautiful. I hope this can make Aussies realise that the true aussies are not the whites. I relatives there that dont think of aboriginals as the true people of australia shame on them and shame on us
We need people of the world to recognize us, and so hard to explain the pain in the hearts of my people. We are crying for our home, always feeling it.. Im white Aboriginal Australian and proud of my black history... and so happy to see people else where recognize this land as ours... when here we dont exist
god, this is so beautiful, brings tears to my eyes, i just adore Wiyathul, heard small snippet for your album on tv sent for it right away the whole thing is amazing
Thank you for the beautiful concert at Perth Concert Hall last night. I loved hearing all these songs live and enjoyed the screen showing the meanings of the lyrics.
This soul music melted away the stress throughout my whole body like like a dollop of healing just when I needed it most... His music is only two days old for me but will stay in my heart forever. Thank you Geoffrey & the backing musicians for helping me to cope in this crazy old world of ours.
Thank you Mr. Geoffrey Gurrumul you are singing like a warm winter sun. You give a good feeling when under a hard working day. You are the Australien voice but unfortunately I can`t understand anything, but I feel it.
Ich bin durchs Radio auf ihn aufmerksam geworden und ich bekomm jedes mal Gänsehaut. Diese Stimme berührt irgendwie, auch wenn man kein Wort versteht. So richtig schön zum träumen. Wunderschöne Stimme und eine tolle Melodie.
nach 5 sekunden war mir schon klar, dass ich so etwas noch nie gehört habe. Absolut spitze. Wirklich die schönste Musik die ich jemals gehört habe. Wie von einer anderen Welt!
I`ve always got Radio 2 on when i`m in my truck, i can`t understand a word but it`s so soothing, Thanks to Jeremy Vine for airing such an amazing talent ! I was so engrossed i almost missed my turning !
what a beautiful piece of music with powerful vocals. I too heard it today on the jer vine show, sitting in the car on my lunch break. It made me cry, and i don't know the reason. Truely spiritual!
I also heard this on j.vines show, and i' taken till now to get the correct spelling of his name thank .you jeremy. this song is the meaning of spellbound
Every once in a while one hears a song on the radio which really needs investigating.This one has evaded me all week on radio 2, but I finally managed to hear Jeremy Vine commentating on it today, straight to I-Tunes and now I am delighted to have my own copy. Wonderful, but why only so few ratings with 25,000 hits. PLEASE RATE THE VIDS IF YOU LIKE THEM!
I heard it on Jeremy Vine today and I had to stop the car to listen. It touched my soul so deeply, so beautifully. I don't know what he's saying and yet he somehow summed up how I felt! Incredible
driving slowly through the green summer countryside with friends in a convertible and listening to this song is an experience not to be missed. you`re transported into another world!
Like all great songs and tunes its because its so simple and easy, straight from the soul.You can feel the heartbeat all the way through it...Liosalan
Open a GOOD bottle of red wine-lean back in your armchair-let the restless world behind-let your soul flow,and begin to see with your heart-than you understand-without words.You free when your heart and soul are free.
This has to be one of the best songs I've heard for years, and the album's fantastic. I hope more people get to hear Gurrumui sing, The man's a real star.
This is as beautiful as Vincent by Don McLean but more special coming from a true man of the great Aussie land. And I guess also enhanced by the aura of hearing something in a language that is all but lost to the world.
hey you have got the best voice that i have ever heard. i heard you sing at daily river and it was just fantastic. i hope you come perform in wadeye one day.
Yo Maynmuk gurrumul. This song is the most beautiful and soul stirring sound I've ever heard. Thank you, for sharing something so special and congratulations for all your successes in the past year. I saw you perform live at the Dreaming Festival in 2007 - that was pure magic then. i look forward to your next live performance.

As often happens, the universal appeal of truly
beautiful music performed from an open soul
forms the most compelling incentive to learn
more of the social issues at the heart of the
music being shared. This music brings us
as one while we empathize with injustice
brought upon some. Greetings from Florida,
grateful for sharing friends who pass this on!
