[nitro282]

Dedicata a tutti coloro con un destino segnato, pieni di rivoluzione, per un cambiamento positivo, per una guerra sulla pace senza armi, per una guerra giocata su un tavolo da scacchi e non su una piantina con degli innocenti.

[jamesmoable]

You are more then an musician clef

[ayitibebe]

non cherie to the haitian biggie and 2pac

[TheArsong]

very nice this one ..

[JeroenB23]

Wyclef is one of my muscial heroes, this is one of the greatest covers I've ever heard. Refugee!

[hiphopcastle]

17 person are jerks...

[MelindaBaath]

Den äger!!!!!



[TRAXANAS11]

[1992bthomas]

WYCLEF IS ONE OF THE BEST IN DA GAME...HE'S UNDERATED..BTW HE SAMPLED BOB DYLAN'S "KNOCKIN ON HEAVENS DOOR"

[TheMacjean]

All my proud haitians go check my new video ..type .. (macjin uno) thank you

[eschersix8]

Perfect! Thanks Mr. Bob Dylan & Wyclef Jean.

[dontpaypussy]

thanks to wyclef for making this one

[christiaanput]

there aren't many covers that are better than the original ( i do like guns n roses version the most though..) but this is one of em, sorry bob dylan ;)

[matafenomeno99]

Bless you Wyclef Jean.

[ElLegendarioRuso]

Yo'a one love, rasta... =)

[justinchrist762]

Thumbs up if you first heard this at the end of Ghosts of Cite Soleil

[007theAlien]

Sounds kinda reggae, i like it. =)

[anna9631]

Respect !

[samds1]

The best song i've ever heard,everything were they getting through in cite soleil is discribt in one amazing song,

[silentc22]

I fuckin miss 2pac and BIG's music and them in general... Wyclef Jean is 1 of the few guys who can sing a song and not rap a bar and still impress me. I got alot of respect for this guy, He raps, sings, produces and talks to the people in a way we can all understand. Not to mention he does alot of charity work, most rappers just donate enough for a fuckin tax deduction...

[lhiggs20]

i can honestly say this is almost as good as the original

[MURA1243]

@lhiggs20 ur nuts not even close!!!!!

[GrisGrisOnUrDoorStep]

@MURA1243 Well its better than Guns and Roses version by a looong shot

[MURA1243]

@GrisGrisOnUrDoorStep  ya ok!!! lol

[shitcan456]

@GrisGrisOnUrDoorStep dont be a dick

[L4z4c]

take the guns away from the streets..

[Penguin121000]

one of the best covers ive hurd in a long time

[Jojosnow16]

16 personnes qui n'y connaissent rien .

[cdeknight00]

to biggie smalls and tupac..

[jomay15]

love the song

[genmcy]

the real G speak his mind and die a G

[alaskanguy71]

bad asssssss.cant hate he speaks the truth.........peace.

[delphicam]

A remake that he makes his own. That, in my opinion, is what a remake should be and how it should be done. Why remake a song if you are going to sound just like the original? And, given the history of this song and the numerous remakes, I find this quite refreshing.

[LiendoAKevin]

guns n roses made it but wyclef killed it..

[willbond]

@LiendoAKevin DYLAN made it, Axl ass-fucked it and Wyclef unsuccessfully tries to cheer it up with some weed.

[BWLGeorge]

@willbond I kind of like all of the versions... but whatever.

[jeffsauceda]

@LiendoAKevin not guns dumbass...if ur gonna try actn smart you should kno ur shit...

[GRIMFUCK]

Fuck Yeah. GHOSTS OF CITY SOLEIL. To WYCLEF, We Arent All Perfect Yet We All STRUGGLE THE SAME. A Dollars Value Doesnt Create The QUALITY Of Life, Its Us Who Make It Our Own. IF YOU CANT LIVE A LIFE WITHOUT THE DOLLAR, THAN YOU ARE ALREADY NOTHING LIVING WITH IT. Those In "POVERTY" May Think They Live Alone, Yet Theres A World That Breathes It Just The Same. When You Wake Up Be Glad For That 1st Breath, Knowing We Have Another Chance. Giving 1 Person Hope Is Better Than None. SMILE, BREATH.

[faavae85]

warrior

[revolutionary111]

Man I love Wyclef.......

[doedeliedokie]

love it 

[doedeliedokie]

heerlijk love to hear it

[MrGeorgemera]

.....so beautiful !! very nice!!

[mustafasharmoot]

Everybody loves bob dylan. He was the american story teller during the vet. war. you cant love music if you dont love dylan

[greed444]

"To biggie smalls and Tupac "  :O

[lgjohnable]

thank God we still have decent artists nowadays and in any kind of music, Wyclef rocks!!!

can't believe how much bullshit and pseudo artists we get in a music industry these days... where the hell are we going?!

Peace

[OBceannette]

this is my favorite song for today.. should go with Michael Franti & Spearhead & Grandpa Elliott.... great tune......

[CrazyBee888]

this is nice...but i think that avril lavigne's vesion is nicest......XOXO

[SamiBagsik]

"to Biggie Smalls and Tupac" <3 ehh...

[madphilgreenballs]

Alexnumbernumbernumber... You think YOU know about music? Firstly, Bob D wrote this amazing song. Because of its brilliance and resonance, Bob M covered it (as did Eric Clapton and various others including G&R's and Avril Levigne). All of these artists wrote excellent (or at least ok) songs of their own. In the circumstances of Haiti, what's wrong with taking the basis of a great song and making it relevant for a good cause?

[eriklvandijk]

Cite Soleil....

Where the sun cannot make us smile anymore...

Where light could mean more darkness risk and fear

And where the darkness is our hiding place, our friend

That is where what we might need is New Hope and a New President...

[kanarvin]

Amazing rendition. Can't wait for Haitian Experience, What I've heard sounds amazing.

[MrMusicislife69]

fuck yes

[Alex148710]

Wish you were here and now this.. Stop stealing songs you dumbfuck.. This song is meant to express profound thoughts, not talking about stupid ghetto shits.. You're a shame.. Seriously I don't give a shit if you've been in projects or what happened to your stupid "brothers" like you call 'em..

[berry1337]

@Alex148710 You have no idea what you are talking about and are a bigot. This is beautiful.

[Alex148710]

@berry1337 Obviously you don't know a shit about music..

[berry1337]

@Alex148710 You understand he is from Haiti right? I know you have never experience poverty because obviously you are a white american but other people in this world have a tough time of it.

[Alex148710]

@berry1337 I don't mind him, where comes from or if he makes songs speaking of poverty. He ain't a real musician and ripoffs great songs from real musicians. If you tell me what he's doing is real music; I feel sorry for you, you've never experienced real music. And being white doesn't have an effect on my beliefs, it just makes sense...

[therealestmc85]

@Alex148710 go listen to some rock n roll boy.

[jazzysilense]

@Alex148710 listen nigga!, what you should do iz stay in the house and live ya fake little life. you dont know what your saying and in that case it's always wise to watch what your saying. luckely for you, your safe and sound behind your mediabox. again.. stay the fuck inside and stay retarded and ignorant and arrogant. Pea

[Alex148710]

@jazzysilense Keep listening to your fake music dumbass.. Perhaps one day you'll find what music is really meant for.

[jazzysilense]

@Alex148710 Really homes? oke listen, first off let me invite you to a personal conversation in wich you can talk to my face like that, and second you aint recognising real music if it hit ya in the face. I happen to be a musician and i do all types off music, not just hip hop. you need to find a dick to suck on

[jazzysilense]

@jazzysilense and alex one mo thing. next time you say something funny ima search your adress and drop you a visit oke

[Alex148710]

@jazzysilense Musician my ass (lol beat boxing doesn't count).

[Oliefja]

@Alex148710 haha alex your so funny, little did you know your laughin your life away. I made you a promise, and i already know where to find you so keep chucklin homes..

[Alex148710]

@Oliefja LOL yeah keep talking behind your screen ass hole.

[Itachiuchiha254]

doesn't matter if you're black, white or anything. this is music. music speaks to us different. it means something different to us all in our own personal life. music is for us to enjoy, for us to relate to when we have nothing else, for us to speak what we feel. to explain us. music is us. dont listen with dumb ears.

[AceKat00o]

@Alex148710 idiot ,ignorence is your brother 

[bestguitarheroplayer]

man this song is so much sadder if you dont know what Cité Soleil is and u look it up,got to love Wyclef jean

[NyoCname]

I need a joint

[jennygirl709]

I have this gynormous crash on you Wyclef. I have only been a fan for less than 2 hours. Did some digging on the net and this man is better than a talented musician. He cares, is generous, and has compassion for mankind. Wow, I think I have a big crush on this man. Hey Wyclef, Can this white girl shake your hand and kiss our check? Why can't we be addicted to things like compassion and spread it all around the world. Don't ever change Mr. Jean Don't ever give up. Bless you

[MrRizla007]

@jennygirl709 alot of ppl feel the same you just said it better then most

[matthewtimestraw]

@jennygirl709 Why can't we be addicted to things like compassion and spread it all around the world.

[MrClosercloser]

@jennygirl709 dude u are racist

[419MJman]

@jennygirl709 Why can't we be addicted to things like compassion ........we all would get aids and herbs.

[nicoboco5]

[thebuzdar]

@eboy323 the best version is guns n roses.

[jkeefe100]

We Need World Peace

[MellowGravillo]

why is everyone arguing about this?? just listen to the music and enjoy. you either like the cover or you dont, so quit making such a big deal about it

[bob24103]

why is everyone comparing this to gnr? the original is from bob dylan

[Winter412]

@bob24103 who cares! like this one! please go away with dumas who cares? get a life.

[bob24103]

@Winter412 yea i think this one is good too  but it pisses me off when ppeople give so much vredit to covers its not as good cause they didnt come up with the songs so u get a damn life

[Miss111G]

Again My Brotha, You sound so poeticly beautifull, I love your dialect.

[kuaitomboblo]

[duddinn45]

[TheGreatPablito]

bagoola gogogogogoooo

[LuckyBoLt37]

either i misread something, or 2pac is from Haiti... o.o

[JoshFritz561]

@LuckyBoLt37 was out of context... one of the brothers in this movie called himself the "Hatian TuPac"

[TheLcityG]

@LuckyBoLt37 na he aint, Haiti haz its own rapper hu iz also called 2pac.

[hellakeiita]

WOW ! Best cover ever <33

[Wolfman8888888888]

@hellakeiita no man the guns n roses version is way better tho this is pretty cool.

[pedrokkz]

@Wolfman8888888888 guns'n'roses sound like a shit and u realy dont know are u talking about jean...

[Winter412]

@Wolfman8888888888 guns and roses can't really sing they jump around and scream do you know what is singing? please now you know they can.t sing. get real. ha!!

[Winter412]

@Wolfman8888888888 wyclef, can sing, gun roses holler, and jump around thats not singing. please get real, thats an insult, to a person that can sing and wyclef can sing and he has his own style, guns and roses sound like the rest rock groups,

[bob24103]

@Winter412 this is the dumbest comment ive ever seen axel rose has one of the best voices in rock and roll history. his ability and range is appreciated by anyone that REALLY knows sinign and music winter just shut the hell up with ur stupid shit

[MysticMoonGoddess67]

I am so happy i met you too. You are an amazing being. Don't let anyone keep you from being yourself.

You are not the sum of the circumstances you have been dealt. You are, however, composed of either lead or gold, depending on if you revolve or evolve.

I trust you. I believe you. I do knw you.

What you speak is truth my dear Angel Gabriel. You will never walk alone now that you know me. You will always be safe. We shall walk unarmed through this world. For all you need is love

[Brigetio86]

i need this song!! please give me a download link PLS!!

[Tnig01]

Beautiful cover. wyclef and bob dylan = brilliance. such a touching song

[4jeremylynchem]

at time 4:01 he says tupac. If he was alive which i doubt he would be in africa or jamaica

[juzblazejr]

haiti, 2pac is a nick-name

[StopPre23]

he died in 2005 i think...before the film was aired

[joshpurwar]

err yer except the video is set in neither of those places...

[soulshine22]

Wyclef means the haitian 2pac who died on september 30, 2004.

Great and sad movie btw (Cité soleil)

[ash2712]

didnt hear this on ghosts of cite soleil

[DerKollegaa]
