I'm stunned and amazed that this clip has passed 100K views. I realize it's no 'Charlie Bit My Finger' but it says something that a 20+ year old clip of this amazing man's interpretation of this song has been seen by so many. I'm thrilled, grateful and amazed.

@BETTERthenUare We also need a fire to keep us warm but too much fire will burn civilization down. If there isn't enough water, the fire won't be put out and will rage without prejudice.

What a knob.
A way of thinking that seperates people from nature by talking about "nature" as if it were somehow seperate from people. Something we could rescue. Something we are "responsible" for.
We are a part of nature....and what we we do is natural.
Tooth and claw. Species die away...and the new comes in it's place.
For millions of years "nature" has governed with no thought of the politics of a thousand years.No regret for the life that fails....only the next step....only going on.
@Bra23we12 I think you could have found a way to express that without disrespecting the man by referring to him as 'a knob'. While I agree that nature does not factor politics or human suffering, there's something to be said for the fact that, as far as we know, no other species that's ever lived on this planet has had the capability, starting with our opposable thumbs, or, ending with our frontal lobes, the will to destroy it. I find it hard to think of war or nuclear weapons as 'natural'.
You're right. It was disrespectful and I regret the remark.
Still, despite mankinds extraordinary ability to impose suffering both on itself and the rest of the living world, it remains a product of natures process. The idea that man stands outside nature at a distance determined by his behaviour, and therefore that some ways of living are more natural than others, is daft.
@Bra23we12 Yes,we are all 'part' of nature but not all of us understand what that means.Your way of thinking is only an excuse to do as you please without taking responsibility for your actions.What some men call their "nature" is nothing more than the cultural environment they grew up in. If you had grown up knowing that the earth is our mother, you would not feel it is 'natural' to tear and rip the guts and heart out of the mother who sustains your life. cont...
@Bra23we12 "Take no thought of who is right or wrong or who is better than. Be not for or against." -Bruce Lee (Perfect example of water)
We have 4elements, You have no right to judge when you yourself are off balancing the scales to that of aggression. I work on keeping the cosmos at balance.
You're very foolish to think that the elements work on separation, but balance. There are forces we cannot fathom and for you to assume you understand things beyond your understanding is folly.
The guy might believe......and all belief is untouchable.
Like insulting a bloke when he's with his girlfriend or family....just something you just don't do. Nobody tells you not to. You just know.
....and there's the rub.
This guy has pulled his belief around him like it was an amoured cloak. Untouchable. Too holy to be disbelieved.....You'd have to have given up on mother earth to say anything against him?
@Bra23we12 we have lost our connection to nature, our reverence... our understanding.... the tooth and claws come out of misunderstanding our place... we lived on this planet 60k years and all of the sudden we are ruining the planet... this is not nature... this is evil and corruption working against the natural way of things... what we think is "progress" or "technology" is a lie we have been programmed into believing and what they dismiss as "primitive" is the true sustainable source of life
@Bra23we12 You say we are a part of nature, and that we shouldn't talk about it as if it were separate, but in your later statement, you say nature does not govern with thoughts about politics. So I am confused, is nature a separate entity, or are we a part of nature? Your words seem contradictory.
It is in the governance of nature that a thing must be what that thing is. This is the meaning of natural.
That a thing might change and in that change shape all other things, is the meaning of flow.
It is wrong to think that when things are changed they become unnatural. It is the natural way that all things must change. Nature governs thus.....and none may stand aside.
RvLUJAN!@HOTMAIL.COM I was fortunate to meet Floyd n to be a part of , The Rainbow Warrior Festivals , n Thanks for posting . It brings back a lot of good memories , Floyd Red Crow Westerman was a great man . I remember him joking with us , " Oh ! I'm gonna kill them with that C cord " .
Where have all our teachers/medicine men gone??? Please don't forget us that maintain our culture and not succumb to the world. If you talk to the Creator, let him know we are still here...carrying the promise. Let the Creator help us with our children so they are not flagrant with their bodies and let their voices be true.
I had the pleasure of working with Floyd Red Crow Westerman 1980'S, a great spirit we in the new world will treasure for eons. His light illuminated the darken path and showed us where to look and listen to the great spirits who guide us. Thank you for sharing.
awesome song , we need to stop all this hatred against us and no matter what ur skin coloue is , we still have the same colors heart , and we all bleed and just be proud of who u are ,smiles
this is a nice and meaningful video....i would like to tour with this spirit...i wish he would read my free book....just search: the dawn of intelligence by kerry craig walker
Wow...I'm so pleased that this video has passed 50k views! I realize that's not a huge number compared with videos of finger-biting toddlers and all but still, it has surpassed my wildest hopes.
Thank you everyone who has viewed it and shared it with others. Let's see if we can hit 100k...I think there are another 50,000+ people who should see this....don't you? ;-) Namaste. Mitakuye Oyasin. Peace.
@cmunik8r how could u not luv such a pure light that shined from the eyes of his soul and seemed 2 connect with any1 who could feel the weight of his words and be 4ever more beautifuly blessed by an obviouse connection 2 the creator !!! thanx u and bless u whoever posted this .he is an example of how we can all strive 2 be more of what the GREAT FATHER wants us 2 be ,more connected more evolved in the spirit .
HELL YES!! I didn't even know Mr.Westerman played guitar or sang!! I just watched Clearcut and he was the elder...He was a Great elder!!! .This is great!!! PEACE!!
I'm an aussie of irish ancestry, I first found Red Crow through a video of his on here talking about the irish people, and I Favorited this long ago, I watch this occasionally on here, its such a classic, its a shame today only a small % percentage of music has any meaning
beautiful but sad i miss this singer.Is someone can tell me the words he say about Sitting Bull ?? because I sing this song and a part of the words I can't figure thanks
@milune11 "There is a place called South Dakota. It's the home of Sitting Bull. He was branded a redskin savage when he tried to defend his land that day. But his dream of beauty that they could not burn away...just another Holy Man that dared to be a friend...by god they killed him."

I am humbled that this little clip has reached 20k views. THANK YOU ALL for your wonderful comments...and for sharing this amazing man with with your worlds. Blessed Be...and KEEP SHARING!
I just wish I had discovered him sooner... he has such a powerful, profound voice... the things he sung and said are touching and... yeah, well, you all know what I mean. ;)
this is the first time i've ever heard this song. it touches the deepest parts of my heart. red crow is a HOLY MAN in his own right. this song has just become number one on my chart.
It's hard to decribe the fullcircle-feelings of many things in my life sofar now taking place, Watching this video after i'v been crisscrossing the net the last week in search of information concerning the Hopi Legends, 2012-prophecies, Indian Elders speaking in their wisdom... Knew from the start that there was more to the man than just these video's on youtube.
More to him than just Dances with Wolves etc. This one is a Legend. Keep inspiring us all. LOVE HOPE and PEACE to all of us! The Doc
Yes he was a powerful presence on this earth. He continues to be a powerful presence from the next world. It is not often I say that a cover song is better than the original but in this case, Flyod has done this tune better than Kris. I send thanks to both men for this strong message.
WOW!...over 6k views of this video...I am speechless...and so grateful to you all for sharing this video with your networks. It honors a man that I had the priviledge of only 'glancing off of' in my awkward white boy way so many years ago. Let's get this to 10k views! Thanks all!
Who is the bloody wanker at the start of the video??? The tune makes up for the tosser sounding like he's has something to offer....actually the singer should have walked up behind the wanker and kicked him up the arsehole where his head is at.
Sorry gang, but the 'bloody wanker' is Ken Carey. The Floyd tune is part of a much longer video of the entire concert (search 'Rainbow Warrior Festival' on Viddler)...I didn't edit the original video and could only cut out this clip...the 'wanker' is edited over the top of the intro to Floyd's tune...I'd have had to cut Floyds tune awkwardly to get Ken out of there, which I didn't want to do, so I kept 'the wanker' out of respect for the tune...plus keep in mind folks...this was 20 years ago...
#(more info) - "...that's another good example of 'a clash of cultures'' shows just how pretentious and know-it-all white settler society really is, uhh. Must always be in control (compulsive/obsessive).
Talking of a Ghandi or some other "holy man" is one thing, tho - but have you ever tried to be "holy" yourself? More than anything, it takes BRAVERY! That is, the kind of courage that men with guns never have.....
You cannot know how much I appreciate that this was posted on youtube. What an incredible man. I stumbled upon it listening to Christy Moore signing Quiet Desparation and googled Floyd Red Crow Westerman and my day has changed. Absolutely incredible. thanks thanks THANKS.
You are sooo welcome!...I'm so happy that it moved you...I too was so moved by this performance when I witnessed it live...as was the entire audience. That it can live on here and finally be seen by the world is such a blessing. Please share the link and the love. Namaste...Chance
floyd my brother, we had many good times on the lake street house were Dar and Rosie lived,with the sound of the I-35W freeway that ran above us, we still sang above all that noise and we could hear you the loudest, gordon cloud sr. love you brother, you were one of a kind......
I was moved to comment simply because I came to learn of this man's inspirational light upon his passing. Artists' works will be here to speak to generations after we are gone and without knowing a lot about this artist, it was immediately obvious that he left a great light & inspiration. Like Bob Marley, Lucky Dube, Peter Tosh & many others. I look forward to learning from and taking inspiration from his wisdom & artistic gems. joy & all good things to his family, friends & fans! ~dean brown~
One of the great hightlights of my life was knowing Floyd, having my wife and two kids knowing him. When I'd meet with him and listen to him talk, and we sang a few lines from one of his songs. This song is a jewel of a find. Thanks to the person who uploaded it. There is so much to say about Floyd. All I can do is give thanks for the little time I spent with him.
The earth is truely missing a gifted man of peace and civil rights activist. It brings tears to my eyes to think about this great man and our loss. Thanks for posting and reminding us all of this great man. May he walk in peace with the elders, holy men and chiefs that he so respecteed.
I'm stunned and amazed that this clip has passed 100K views. I realize it's no 'Charlie Bit My Finger' but it says something that a 20+ year old clip of this amazing man's interpretation of this song has been seen by so many. I'm thrilled, grateful and amazed.

Żył człowiek zwany Mahatma Ghandi
Nie kłaniał się, wstrzymywał pięść
Wiedział, że są układy brudne
Lecz dobra się nie czyni złem (nie śmiał)
Ale znał swój obowiązek i cenę, którą musiał dać
Jeszcze jeden święty mąż, co w grę tę nie chciał grać
Boże, zabili! (lub Cośmy zrobili?)

Ktoś inny żył w Atlancie, w Georgii
I zwał się Martin Luther King
Wstrząsnął ziemią jak huk gromu
Sprawił że dzwon wolności brzmi (jak brzmiał)
Jego snem o pięknie, co w ogniu zginąć miał
Jeszcze jeden święty mąż przyjaźń ocalić śmiał
Boże, zabili!

Jedyny syn Wszechmogącego
Święty Jezus Chrystus król
Leczył chorych, karmił głodnych
Za miłość dostał krzyż i ból (jak miał)
W drodze do chwały, gdzie życie wiecznie trwa
Zwykły człowiek, boży Syn, czyż pojąć go się da?
Boże, zabili!

Jest miejsce zwane dziś Dakotą
Kraj gdzie mieszkał Sitting Bull
Zwano go czerwonym diabłem
Gdy broniąc go używał kul (czy chciał?)
Jego sen o pięknie wszak w ogniu zginąć miał
Jeszcze jeden święty mąż przyjaźń ocalić śmiał
Boże, zabili!

Śpiewaj jak Mahatma Ghandi
Graj jak Martin Luther King
Śpiewaj pieśń Wszechmogącego
Śpiewaj niczym Sitting Bull

It's hard to decribe the fullcircle-feelings of many things in my life sofar now taking place, Watching this video after i'v been crisscrossing the net the last week in search of information concerning the Hopi Legends, 2012-prophecies, Indian Elders speaking in their wisdom... Knew from the start that there was more to the man than just these video's on youtube.
More to him than just Dances with Wolves etc. This one is a Legend. Keep inspiring us all. LOVE HOPE and PEACE to all of us! The Doc

Yes he was a powerful presence on this earth. He continues to be a powerful presence from the next world. It is not often I say that a cover song is better than the original but in this case, Flyod has done this tune better than Kris. I send thanks to both men for this strong message.

Who is the bloody wanker at the start of the video??? The tune makes up for the tosser sounding like he's has something to offer....actually the singer should have walked up behind the wanker and kicked him up the arsehole where his head is at.
wovokanarchy 3 years ago
Sorry gang, but the 'bloody wanker' is Ken Carey. The Floyd tune is part of a much longer video of the entire concert (search 'Rainbow Warrior Festival' on Viddler)...I didn't edit the original video and could only cut out this clip...the 'wanker' is edited over the top of the intro to Floyd's tune...I'd have had to cut Floyds tune awkwardly to get Ken out of there, which I didn't want to do, so I kept 'the wanker' out of respect for the tune...plus keep in mind folks...this was 20 years ago...

#(more info) - "...that's another good example of 'a clash of cultures'' shows just how pretentious and know-it-all white settler society really is, uhh. Must always be in control (compulsive/obsessive).
Talking of a Ghandi or some other "holy man" is one thing, tho - but have you ever tried to be "holy" yourself? More than anything, it takes BRAVERY! That is, the kind of courage that men with guns never have.....

floyd my brother, we had many good times on the lake street house were Dar and Rosie lived,with the sound of the I-35W freeway that ran above us, we still sang above all that noise and we could hear you the loudest, gordon cloud sr. love you brother, you were one of a kind......

I was moved to comment simply because I came to learn of this man's inspirational light upon his passing. Artists' works will be here to speak to generations after we are gone and without knowing a lot about this artist, it was immediately obvious that he left a great light & inspiration. Like Bob Marley, Lucky Dube, Peter Tosh & many others. I look forward to learning from and taking inspiration from his wisdom & artistic gems. joy & all good things to his family, friends & fans! ~dean brown~

One of the great hightlights of my life was knowing Floyd, having my wife and two kids knowing him. When I'd meet with him and listen to him talk, and we sang a few lines from one of his songs. This song is a jewel of a find. Thanks to the person who uploaded it. There is so much to say about Floyd. All I can do is give thanks for the little time I spent with him.
