Bobby Mc Ferrin - By The Sea

[jazzzz1066]

Ha, I notice the noisy chatter quickly dies out when Mr. McFerrin works his magic.Bravo!

[Zarat818]

I wish he would sing me happy birthday, that would be the best gift.

[entranz2]

השיר הזה פשוט ענק כמו הבולבול של פקדו.. אני גיא אלברג ואני גיי

[boyfrommerthyr]

Seriously are you kidding me? The 3 votes are proof positve that sometimes 3 people would rather vote against than be right. One of the best pieces of vocals anytime, anywhere. Still so relevent and amazing, "beatbox" with a voice!!!

[JarFog]

How could you not like this! 3 people are fucking crazy!

[richardrmwd]

Fuck SAKE i love this, but where is it for download, I WILL PAY FOR IT! Its not on his website or on amazon, if Anyone out there knows where to buy this could you PLEASE tell me?

[Kitatsu4000]

beautiful.

[wallstreetatheist]

Flawless Victory 3:55

[ShinkaHentai]

why does this guy have such a pure soul? you know you can see it too.

I think I wanna meet this guy and ask him everything and listen to him sing. I think I will do just that. I was the weird guy that made bizarre sounds and beat boxed as a kid, but it never occurred to me that you could make a living at it. well, He could, at least. Bless you, Brother. You are smooth and clean and I get chills up and down my spine when I listen long enough, the chills tell me that I am hearing the truth. Love!

[Thastorcyclone]

@ShinkaHentai

so deep comment from guy named Shinkhentai :D hahahahahah made me laugh but ye ur spot on my friend

[lmaopsychy]

Oh my god!!! Bobby McFerrin freakin' KILLIN it. Look at that face at the end! He KNOWS he just killed it! He's like "Yeah, I did that." How do you respond to that? I just smile. I'm happy to live in a universe where an experience like this can happen over and over with just a little movement of my finger! :)

[sam41977]

wake up, brush, shower, get redy, bobby mcferrin

[MsFeyCreature]

every once in a while someone reminds me about bobby mcferrin and I go "Oh yeah, that guy. He's freakin awesome...."

[NeverSoberStudios]

let's just pray the 3 dislikes were missclicks!

[NeverSoberStudios]

i almost cry when i hear this... god this is beautifull

[Kota813]

@NeverSoberStudios it really is BEAUTIFUL. I gave up a tear :)

[Poddy442]

a quality song, as all his songs are tho :)

[akilah49]

when i tell some friends how I love him, they don't understand it. He is a human orchestra, light and uplifting. When I listen to him, he brings my spirit up.

[richgenoval2]

One of my favorite all time Bobby tunes. This guy is my frickin Idol.

[DIANNEELEE]

This is so awesome. A grandma.

[thefearlessfrog]

i hear bobby almost every day since 20 years. its almost like religion :)

[PracticeMakesAwesome]

I find myself close to tears everytime i experience this song

[afranklin206]

listen before i go to bed.... my lullaby

[JDTUBER21]

hes one of those artists that you feel like you know them just by watching them perform

[inlightinlove]

geniale!!!

[SaukIsHigh]

so just cause u watch somethin more then once on utube u dont have a life'

im in college i study i have a GF and i go the gym. and i still listen to bobby mcferrin song more then once per day. on the car on the ipod srsly.

LOL1 u guys are so retarded. although i dont think its his best song i loooove pink panther. Since its him recording his voice 7 times and adding them all up makes that perfection.

[thedeeliciousplum]

Not just brilliant, but freakin' steeped in the pinnacle of awesomeness-ness. Thank you for sharing this.

[nailgun27]

BOBBY MCFERRIN FOR PRESIDENT!!!

[tiagotj2]

Quem precisa de um instrumento cantando assim?rs

[ledarksparck]

You watch this almost everyday? you loser. good stuff but dude seriously get a fucken life.. get a girlfriend.

[BobMarley1e]

@ledarksparck Dude if you just watch it like 1 time a day, it's fine.... not no-life watch this then it's Wrong.

[Ryczbo09]

it's like soundtrack to unicorn jumping over the rainbow.. awesome and so chilling

[Taylor13371337]

It would be cool to hear him sing a song normally with a band behind him. still my hats off to him for this incredible talent

[nailgun27]

autotune wishes it could be as perfect as bobby mcferrin.

[jochen443]

this is one of my most favorite songs. ferrin just a genius. - does anybody know, if theres a record of this song on any of his albums ?? would be a dream to finally have that song .... if anybody knows -

[joemoma516]

@jochen443 i looked on itunes, no luck =[ if you find it lemme know

[chantpourtous]

@jochen443 : No there's not !

[splinterceller1]

2 people were not by the sea

[joemoma516]

where can i get this mp3? such a great tune =]

[HidDeNDaNg3r]

if I were to ever join in a religion, this is what it should make me feel like.

[Cutiepieraypec]

@HidDeNDaNg3r I'm a Christian, but not the surface kind that is more common now. I decided if I wanted an individual faith, I had to be driven into it by love and passion, and the things that naturally drive me to live fuller and more lovingly. Music is one of my greatest passions, and is incredibly spiritual to me. If you ever do discover your own journey of faith, I hope it is through music, maybe this song even. :)

[23mw23]

the original beatbox!

[novaturbkkk]

2 dislikes! must of been 2 lost justin bieber fans surely!

[littleburgundy]

3:17 omfg

[littleburgundy]

Brilliant. Anyone else notice his vocal tone sounds like Roland Orzabal in this tune?

[PyroPiraat]

What is the original artist of By the Sea?

[psalong]

GG

[ayavah]

AMAZINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG !!!!!!!!!

[0RaysAccount0]

I bet he could sing his own autotune while singing if he wanted!

[detroidxl]

fake. hes from jupiter.

it explains so much

;)

[ajax245]

my favorite song to relax to. and i don't know if there is a recorded version, but i don't care, this live version is absolutely beautiful

[cyndi1231]

be real, love your background, do you not want to be up front, you do not need anything. i get voices, do you?

[DreamRasta]

this is sooooo unbelievably dreamy and beautiful :O

[BKiLoJJ]

This is just amazing....

[martabo]

the two people that dislike this video think 50 cent and lil' wayne are viable artists.

[Jene7092]

how is that possible. thats amazing. he just melted my heart and i don't feel the least bit homosexual with that previous statement haha

[gfan0080]

this is the kind of talent recording artists should have, none of this autotune crap. i remember a time when people had to have skill to be a recording artist.

On another note, Bobby McFerrin is the epitome of bad ass.

[grimforaday]

did anyone notice bobby's ear at 1:42? i think bobby is from space! lol check it out

[hollywood9009]

this touched my soul...bobby is a musical hero

[tomjjohansson]

I have a problem finding this one in his album, anyone know if it is studio recorded or only a unique Live performance? :)

[filatelistyka]

Master !!!!!!!!!!!!

[filatelistyka]

bobby is like orchestry !

[Spilledesperado]

why isn't this on any cd...

[keithmurraymusic]

I watch this almost everyday, it's amazing.

[PicturingOurPast]

@keithmurraymusic I would loop his video works on my bedroom ceiling ad infinitum. O.o <3 Everything I see about this great man is as joyful as can be. Wonderful.

[Lilcutie94crazy]

He is A M A Z I N G

[DaPimpinBlob]

almost looks like marvin gaye

[sam0xin]

MASTER of vocal art ! LOVE YA BOB !

[musical14u]

[MrMaus3r]

[ysam001]

[jmorginski]

[puttefnask]

[mrdot2]

[boredboredbored88]

2 people don't have ears.

[JohnofNub]

[TheRealThilo]

[360Warlock]

@TheRealThilo Nope 

[LunaArthemis]

Animal... Fiquei embasbacada, boquiaberta, catatônica e todos os outros adjetivos sinônimos...

[snelpiller]

As much as I love Bobbys multitone singing, id like to hear him simply singing a song :)

[MegaRBeaT]

2 people ended up being crashed by the waves of the sea..

xP

[paooaqdesign]

I can't believe what he's doing...

[ThisisVish]

This guy is amazing. He creates the bass, the guitar, the drums all in his head, and he doesnt even need any of it to express the music. unbelievable

[Googlenoodle21221]

Thumbs up if you think this is his best song! :)

[lecordonfranc]

this is my absolute favorite bobby mcferrin video :) just sit back and let the sound drift you to that sea :)

[90scyfa]

!!!!!!! veery fresh

[dezoksyryboza]

nadprzyrodzony talent....

[IanOsei]

WOW!!!!!!!!

What a FANTASTIC one man orchestra was that???

[suckmecok]

ohhh my gawd....wow

[ictph3]

COOOOOOOL.....

[cccaaarrrhhh]

too incredibly cool

[jonv46]

this is a great asset to music! I show my children how they can excel by using bobby's music.

[jazzaheadandbehind]

Great talent!!

[360Warlock]

Damn Can't find the mp3 ? Is this on any of his albums ?

[asianboy999]

my lungs would be if i tried this

[poeguru88]

I love the part from 1:52 to 2:07; its so powerful and mystic at the same time; his voice takes you to another world.

[venomchris]

this always cheers me up

[sassy2131]

I keep listening to this over and over - its got a nice beat, and a lovely tune............ it's so relaxing!

[wijmderj]

Does anyone know if there's a recorded version of this?

[freeosin]

@wijmderj I've looked. Can't find it anywhere :(

[aslan2221991]

i have lisent to this, the whole day today, it calms me down

[thomflan]

Is he singing in two different octaves at the same time, or two notes or what??? how can a voice box do that? someone with some professional knowledge enlighten me Please

[h3115r3p3ntanc3]

@thomflan yes.

[deepbluenothing]

@thomflan at the same time, no. but he's incredibly good at transitioning between registers of his voice, easily and with flawless intonation switching from his low register to his falsetto and back again. he's also got a little bit of reverb on the mic to help carry the harmonies he's outlining.

[gabo1604]

@thomflan Not here, but he can do it. It comes from Mongolian singers who can sing two and three notes at the same time, there are videos here on youtube that teach you how to do it.

[360Warlock]

@gabo1604 REALLY WHAT ARE THE NAMES OF THOSE VIDEOS?

[gabo1604]

@360Warlock Search overtone singing tutorials. It takes a lot of playing around with. I stopped trying for a few weeks or months and got it. Just do whatever gets your sounds louder. Good luck!

[360Warlock]

@gabo1604 Ah Thank you Been Practiceing Man It is Tough as Shit I give kudos to Bobby he Is God lol

[sassthedrummer]

Incredible!

[zomzilove]

I hardly want to call myself a singer after listening to this!! So Amazing!!!

[SpitsBeaTz]

Legend.

[razorakachatboy]

he is the best

[tayor555556]

The 2 dislikes should burn in hell!

[rawrimaprick]

@tayor555556 was probably misclicks.

[ddeennpp]

2 dislikes??

Must be deaf.

[IAmMoonSinger]

@ddeennpp LOL.... Yep, must be deaf - and grouchy about it!

[beautifullylocd1]

what concert is this? is there a cd available?

[kekikt12]

my mind is BLOWN!!! vocal perfection

[stateradio017]

my favorite part is 0:10 - 3:53

[sassy2131]

love him sooo much - so talanted

it must be so difficult to keep that going without struggling for breath so much - he must have great concentration and passion to do this!!!!!

[TheVengorio]

Chłopina jest w tym dobry...pare lat temu zobaczyłem go w tv i mi kopara opadła:)W Polsce z formacją "Motion Trio" na festiwalu jazzowym zrobił rewalacyjną interpretacje! Ale ten kawałek jest poprostu genialny;)

[HuNgRyBoiZ]

who needs autotune?! bobby obviously does not.

[Sqvusz]

@HuNgRyBoiZ best comment ive ever seen.

[0the00piano00hugger0]

does he actually play cello or upright or something?

[folopo2]

@0the00piano00hugger0

he is a conductor too. he probably plays some instruments but i have never seen it.

[0the00piano00hugger0]

@folopo2 thank you for replying. It just seems like he is fingering legitimately.

[Justbechillman]

@0the00piano00hugger0

I think he does that with his hands to just sort of help him with his intonation. With all those crazy leaps I think the act of actually pretending like he's playing a stringed instrument helps him make those double and triple octave

[wiitubeaccount]

there is one dislike ;-__-;

[BHGiant3]

@wiitubeaccount seriously, who could dislike this???

[lilton25]

this song reminds me of my sons.tino j-bird and frankie love ya.singin songs fo ya by the ocean

[nipper2009]

this guy invented beatbox nice and slow then beardyman ripped it up but booby is a pure ledgend for the way he performs may he be youtubed by people for many years to come :)

[Drworm89]

I wish he released this song on a cd.

[theeggman85]

omg I get to see him tonight live... I'm so incredibly excited

[molinmusic]

Keep coming back! Thank you again and again for posting this! MORE LOVE!

[bottman5]

one dislike.. LAWL!!! who the F*** WAS THAT??

[mattdrums4you]

@bottman5 someone must've clicked it on opposite day

[Ppriceless206]

his timing is unreal!!...so on point.

[peebojam]

I've looped this for over an hour. I just can't get over how amazing it is.

[brendanleach]

what does the left hand do for him? just keep him organized or what? anyways its amaing

[psychopicasso]

Ican't decide if this one or "Drive" is my favorite, Guess it depends on my initial mood.  I say initial because I'm always in a great mood after listening to this man.

[plainzappings]

@psychopicasso

"Opportunity"

[bevcom88]

WOW i cant stop listening to this

[coRnflEks]

By the end, the man himself seems to agree: That's a really good song!

[jeffgallagher187]

Stringer Bell has got some musicality.

[royboy421]

@carbonhealth I don't think he is

[JazzWithoutANet]

Perfect pitch, magnetic whimsy and innovation oozing out of his pores. This cat is surely one of kind...

[Justbechillman]

are there any recordings of this song anywhere? it is so fantastic

[stevessoap]

And this is why i like You Tube! Wow, Great Post!! I just became a bobby McFerrin fan. Don't worry, i'm happy!

[stateradio017]

i feel bad for those souls who have not heard him let alone this amazing song

[j3b2b5]

Three syllables... A-MA-ZING! Absolute perfection!

[thegreatestoffools]

How is it that there aren't any covers of his performances on YouTube? ;)

He's in a class of his own, that's why.

[dw061787]

i love this song. have viewed this video at least 15 times in the past 3 weeks. amazing singing and backup.

[JazzWithoutANet]

Now THAT'S what I call "command of your instrument."
