  • hes doesnt play the guitar he makes love to it

  • most musics nowdays are only getting famous because of the artists. unlike before musics are appreciated by both the artist and it's message. these kinds of musics must live forever. thanks cat stevens and all those who have left us inspirational musics.

  • I love my dad

  • Getting older myself makes the song more emotional.

  • I have to go ....  :(

    May The Atrocities of History Be Erased

    With An Incredible Amount of Love and Respect For Eachother

    Thank you

    Cat Stevens

  • Such emotion in all his songs.... the world lost a great songwriter when he just gave it all up...

  • I never realised Peter Sutcliffe was so talented...!

  • Because Bob is the best dj ever !

  • 296 people are old and unhappy

  • May Allah Bless you always my brother!!

  • I love you father!

  • A beautiful life lesson...for all of us...

  • pure genius music will always rule

  • Quelle belle chanson !

  • I learned this song when i was 10, is a song that everybody have to listen before to die. Greetings from Chile.

  • Yussuf i´m love you my brother

  • What does it matter if he is a converted muslim or christian.

    His music is beautiful, so please try to enjoy it.

  • @HMA29A religion shouldnt matter he is still a great singer and a good person that is the only thing that matters, what if he was agnostic and believed that there was a higher purpose, would you think any less of him probably not.

  • @HMA29A Agree with you. Music is universal no matter the faith professed.

  • @HMA29A Well said.  A beautiful song is just that ;) Be well friend.

  • LOVE <3

  • I wanna raise my kdis to his music one day

  • @Thesliderohyes  peace and Love

  • Yusuf.. don't ever forget how much you are loved...here. eternal thanks man

  • Beautifully sung by an enlightened man of faith!

  • @uciekg ha..ha..that's hilarious. 'enlightened' in your way of thinking means supporting a fatwa against a fellow human. If that's enlightened than bring on the New Dark Ages.

  • I never had the chance to tell my father how much I loved him and it's too late now... :(

  • This song makes you go forward good things will come and will end, at the end we all have to go away

  • Stupid arsehole he is. Until he renounces his Muslim beliefs, he can get fucked.

  • @youie66 You're an idiot

  • @quarknugget Are you Cat Stevens? Or have you got personal with me when I haven't made a comment about you? You must be a Muslim! Attacking people you don't know because they hold a view different to yours is the calling card of a typical Muslim. So, I will rise above your name calling and wish you a very nice day.

  • @youie66 >bigoted anti-Muslim speech

    >"Attacking people you don't know because they hold a view different to yours"

    wtf am i reading

  • @quarknugget That's a fair enough response. I'd like clarify. You don't know me, I don't know you. It wouldn't be fair for either of us to attack the other. However, I regard Cat Stevens to be different. While I don't know him personally, I've heard many of his public utterances, his view on Islam, his view on Rushdie, his views on many things. I feel I'm entitled to refer to him as an 'arsehole' and I feel I'm entitled to afford him no respect at all for his medieval views.

  • @youie66 You are totally just in criticizing particular views that he has. I too hate a lot of the things that muslims say. I mistook you for someone who has as irrational hatred of muslims due to ignorance. But I want to emphasize that we should criticize muslims for their particular beliefs, not for just the quality of being muslim. Because it's possible to be a reasonable muslim (although such people are too rare these days).

  • @quarknugget Thanks for the response. Very kind. i agree with you except for the notion of a 'reasonable muslim'. I don't believe it's possible to be. I'm an atheist and hold a view that that's it's not reasonable to be religious or to be associated with any religion. All the holy books and texts contain great stuff, granted, but the existence of unacceptable views also in them discredits the entire book. I realise this view is a bit harsh, but we need to as a society to grow up!

  • @youie66 I guess I meant "relatively" reasonable. As in they don't advocate the sort of violence that others do, that sort of thing. Liberal muslims are still deluded, but no more than christians and other religious people. So yeah, I think we actually pretty much agree on everything.

  • @youie66 You, nieche, and the ubermenche, eh? A mind searching for truth whole heartedly can never be suspended from rationality. To beleive it is impossible is indeed irrational in itself. If it conceivable it is possible in at least one scenario. To refuse to conceive of it is your own arrogance and ignorace getting in the way. Sure alot of people mess it up for the public image by irrationally accepting things blindingly, but have the holders of truth ever been popular if their path is hard?

  • How The Fuck Haven't I Ever Heard This Song?

  • @SporadicHesitation :  It was perhap that this was just the right time you and many others did!

  • sorry for minor mistake... They love freedom of expression and no prior restraint no curtailment of freedom to express daw. So now i gave them my freedom to express my opinion ..... hows that to you?!!! P%$#@ ina mo!

  • Im telling whole world I don’t care! The reason why I said this, im also  falipinos, not by choice because my dad is a foreigner, im inside the belly of the dragon, I think like them. i'm sorry im just telling the truth. be careful in dealing w/ them very charlatan ...

  • I heard a rumor arnie pineda i forgot his name, was trying to impostors this original artist for the second time around he made headlines for being no. 1 falapinos impostors of asia ...you know him, falapinos are the greatest hypocrites race in asia if not the whole world very pretentious people they're trying to project mabait daw but deep down they're telling you fuck you!. Now by mere malicious suspicion they're trying to remove their sc chief justice imagine that they're mostly gunggung!

  • One of the greatest songs ever.

  • filthy raghead

  • @RegLeachFan

    you are a fool of the highest regard

  • @Vanguardsoundsystem Was a pointless comment hat bloke said but cat stevens advocating the death of novelist salman rushdie ill never get over. And he has no right to sings songs like this .Admittedly this was before his faith came in

  • @dawtchins you support that fag salman ? He insulted islam.Wouldnt you do the same a jew insulted christianity ? faggot

  • @rasboi I'm a man of science and cosmology, and i'm not aware if his gay nor do i care. And also i don't care for your homophobic behavior . I'm for skepticism and rationality so therefor believe mythology should be shown to be absurd which evidently it is. You've probably guessed i don't care for any of the three abrahamic mythologies .Freedom of speech should be upheld against violence no matter what. If people want to be offended they can very well do so , but do not intimidate free thinkers

  • @dawtchins i have no idea what the fuck you are talking about.Your answer is totally irrelevant to what i had replied to you

  • @rasboi Well i shall be more concise .I dont care if someone insults someone or a group (especially if its a belief system). Most people get over it , but some it seems will kill. These people I consider to be evil and tread on free society. I don't understand why you assume i'm christian, which goes to show that religion fuels war and voilence. You've already segregated humanity into three groups there. All believing in nonsense, believe what you want behind closed doors, don't bring it out.

  • @rasboi Fuck Islam up it's stupid ass.

  • @RegLeachFan Islam is almost the same as christianity.We both believe in jesus.

  • @rasboi

    Fully fledged fucking retard right here.

  • Comment removed

  • he will be singing again 

  • these where the days of our life,,,,

  • Pure magic - An icon - There was a band from NW Queensland in the 70's - Madison Cat and they entertained the crowds with their renditions of Cat Stevens - the drummer of the band had a strong resemblance to Cat Stevens ... Those where the days my friends !!!

  • one of the song that best describe "the story of my life" ^_^

  • This song is so damn awesome, Cat Stevens what an legend!

  • :)

    

  • Great artis and great songs, i'm ex musilm and it's a such a shame that he became muslim and quit singing...

  • @Hamodyxxx0 he hasnt quit singing he changed his name sure but didnt quit

  • @paddiem19 how little you know! he quit music in 1979 and sold all of his guitars for charity and devoted his life to the Muslim community, he only returned to music in 2006 so i think 27 years could be counted as quitting!

  • @tystanden7 no not quitting just balancing life

  • @Hamodyxxx0 why is it sad he became muslim? if it makes him happy then whats your problem. and he still sings anyway you knob

  • This will play at my funeral :')

  • my son is great kid

  • cat stevens cool no dislikes

  • Wonderfull sang <3 i like it

  • 293 pessoas que nao amam o seu pai,que tristeza..

    293 people who do not love your father, how sad..

    293 personas que no aman a su padre, qué triste..

    293 personnes qui n'aiment pas votre père, quelle tristesse..

    293 Personen, die nicht lieben Ihren Vater, wie traurig.

    Amo te pai ((( ♥ )))

  • what a great song ,Life is good and it goes fast ,make sure you tell your Dad you love him

  • This is how to do it.

  • Just to let you all know I'm 18 and I love this stuff

  • @SarCaSMiCclan yo SWEET bro no one cares any generation can enjoy :)

  • @SarCaSMiCclan 16 ;)

  • My favorite 8 track-Tea for the Tillerman.

  • great son but a huge waste of white !

  • neever gets old!

  • people try to read too much into stuff..just listen to a beautiful song and enjoy it

  • @TheUnclePunky what songs are written for a purpose, even God says the truth is in the song man its emotions , life hurts pains loves all wrapped into one little song, read what ever your heart feels you to read that's listening to music man

  • love this song

  • heard him while on a camping trip with a catholic school in the 70's and had to analyze his whole song tea for the tillerman.

  • I did a research project/presentation on Cat Stevens for my Islam class, and I learned that he was a serious truth seeker like I am. I started to hear his sincere desire and journey for truth in his music, and really related to the guy and appreciated his music even more. If you are a truth seeker, here is a good place to look. Search for "Truth Contest" in Google and click the 1st result, then click on The Present and read what it says.

  • @SeekTruthN0w so, you and he are truthseekers and yet you can swallow the fact that he approved of a fatwa on Rushdie. You think there is 'truth' in authorising the killing of a fellow human. That's one hell of a truth if you can swallow that. Good luck in searching for the truth. I've never understood why people need to 'search' for the truth when it's staring you in the face each time you look in the mirror. Sheesh.

  • Watching my father grow old and die killed my love of life. Tell you parents you love them every day because they'll be gone way too soon. Death is so final...

  • @SkynyrdTim Our bodies are like an anchor. This world is filled with far more awful things than transitioning from a dense physical existence into a lighter, higher vibratory state. You may lose your ego-mind as that is within the physical brain, but your "soul" or "energy" that came from the original source, will continue on, ready to return its experiences of individual existence to the source or (God), as we all will. Love is all.

  • @thejakeyl88 Well said. 

  • @thejakeyl88 try to make some sense next time you write a comment. are you trying to console somone by saying that there dead dad is a vibrating energy?? are you high or just stupid? we need more people to accept reality and love life and less new age idiots like you speaking about death like you actually have any idea what it is. your trying to sound smart, but your really not. your just talking shit in a nice flowery sentence. p.s i use the bible as toilet paper

  • @thejakeyl88

    The fuck

  • @thejakeyl88 Seriously Amazingly beautiful way to look at life. Kudos.

  • @MrBoomerelwell2 wow you show your intelligence by writing such crap!!!

  • @MrBoomerelwell2 Are you serious I mean have you read the Koran in the original Arabic text in order for you to have such die-hard opinions. I am not Islamic but I do know that the fundamentalists are espousing heretical ideas. Peace.

  • @MrBoomerelwell2 I think you and the joker would get along just dandy , as he loves a bad seed , and you are for sure a bad seed . I dont even feel sorry for you , I'm thinking most people on this planet feel the same about you . :(

  • @SkynyrdTim

    You are still loved.....

    You just told them,and they told you.

  • @SkynyrdTim I almost started crying when I read your comment, then I looked in the responses and it said "don't cry" ; I'm sorry for your loss.

  • @SkynyrdTim Aye, love your elders...in fact, love and accept all. Unconditional love...universal and complete; that is what it is to have a pure heart. But death is not final...death is merely change; transition. The dead have merely reentered the stream of becoming...our bodies belong to the universe, and our consciousness is part of a greater being...a river of life, so to speak...people are but tributaries in this great stream.

  • @SkynyrdTim know what your talking about my father past away 22 years ago never took the time to tell him how much i love him

  • @SkynyrdTim  Sweetie remember that you are HIM! You may still be here tomorrow but your dreams may not. Darling YOUR DaD LOVES you so much. You are his carrier and he is so content knowing this. His blood is running through your own veins right now because he created, moulded, loved and cared for you. You are him because he is you.

  • @SkynyrdTim Sorry for your father, it was the same for me, I couldn't even see him die,I was away from home....But now I know that if you really love somebody, he'll be with you forever. I'm sure your father KNOWS how much you love him ...

  • looks like a girl

  • One of the most touching songs out there.

  • Before his "conversion" Stevens was one of the biggest cock suckers in L.A.(fact)!

  • @Liebana1000 One: Not true. Two: Even if he was, he has more talent in his foreskin alone than you ever will.

  • @Hexxle I have quite a few friends in the busy in LA and the guy was a class A cocksucker.Completely sincere here and not that there's anything wrong with sucking cock.

  • @Imbalaya Sometimes what people say can have a lasting effect on peace, think Martin Luther King Jr I have a dream speech. That's someone saying something that changed the world for the better.

  • @SuperGiantRedCat Cat Stevens wants Salman rushdie dead. So much for that "peace"... lol

  • music + cat stavens = magic

  • What a cool video. This song has been in my life forever and it takes on new meaning with every life event. Cat/Yusuf made music beyond words to describe

  • I hate my dad but I love this song.

  • Cat Stevens = Legend

    One of the best song ever recorded

    Love it!!

  • The VAST majority of Muslims are honest, respectable, law abiding citizens who are exactly the same as you and me.

    You need to understand that this guy is not one of them.

    He called for the murder of Salman Rushdie, a writer who he considered insulted Mohammed in a short story - even had the arrogance to do it on BBC television so he simply cannot deny it.

    Whatever he once was, he is no longer, and anyone supporting him is as guilty as he is.

  • Comment removed

  • @BobTheMunificent Can you send al those "respectable law abiding muslims" to Norway please? There seem to be some misunderstanding here since Norway is flooded over by muslims who are criminal scum.

  • shut up and enjoy the music ;)

  • Faith is not important, we all have our beliefs, a wonderful tune, and timeless words. Sorry for my bad English.

  • @kustot There is nothing wrong with your english. Don't apologize! Peace!

  • This is shit!!!

  • @FlyingDoctor1988 then why are you here? you retarded monkey bathing psychopath looking stupid ugly goose. Not to mention that you probably haven't got any friends, nor any taste in music. OH, I FORGOT, you're hated, deaf, mute AND blind. *cough*

  • @FlyingDoctor1988 i think you mean this is THE shit

  • THIS IS SO SWEET, LOVE <3

  • i am 58 years old ....i still love this song...god bless you Mr, Youssef !!

  • Always choke up to this song. RIP Dad I Love You

  • @tmmurphy89 Love my Dad too so have a little insight too your pain Because when there gone / we're gone there's Not another force more final God be with you and all loved soles with our lord .

  • it's hard to see that people have to argue even in youtube  that's sad

  • Aún a través de las eras, los idiomas y la religión la música de Cat toca los corazones de todos los que la escuchan, es mi cancion favorita.

  • it is night a originall

    

  • it is night a originall

  • this is a copy you all

  • Hey Mr. Hnatiuk! This was your favourite song! We all miss you even though you've only been gone a couple days! #bestteacherever

    This one's for you sir!

    R.I.P. Tues.Jan.10.2012

  • Stevens, the man. This one's for you Dad.

  • @lifesleepdeath - Boyzone eat your heart out!!

  • lets get to the real debate can anyone tell me why the smoking police have not airbrushed that pipe from the video. . . . . . . . ps. that was sarcasm if you hadn`t guessed

  • I love my father

  • Comment removed

  • even though i dont do drugs, i feel high listening to this

  • Comment removed

  • Ah yes religion, separating people since....since it was created. 

  • Grow up guys. It's sad to see that so many people can't simply sit back and appreciate the music. Who cares if he's a Muslim? He's won peace awards, for christ's sake! I wish people wouldn't let his religion get in the way of his beautiful music.

  • @SuperGiantRedCat People should be awarded peace awards for what they do, not from what they sing or say.

  • @Imbalaya Last time I checked, singing is doing something. Singing CAN make a difference.
