@IOANNIS69ORIGINAL THIS IS EPIC AND AWESOME. Music is such a great way for us to put aside issues of race, religion, and politics. I'm so glad they put all types of music in this, from that awesome rock n' roll guitar solo to hip-hop. This song promotes international unity, togetherness, collaboration.... It is a way for people around the world to come together to produce an amazing piece of music, putting aside all barriers. I think that by itself is a cause, and a reason to love this song.
Omg!!! it was so cool to see all the different artists perform together.Music defenitely unites our hearts.It articulates our feelings when we cant with words.Berkley rockzzz The idea is very very COOL!!!WELL DONE!
really great! love the berklee and global connection...flowing song, great talent and production. lets find ways to get others to see it. quincy jones would have loved to have been involved :)

Dear Friends: It's really a wonderful song .. I swear I could feel in my soul a great force .. is the force that you transmit. Everyone has different ways to show the world how wonderful it is the unity of the humanity Thanks to every one of you and blessings to all...
Rhythm Of The Universe is a musical collaboration project ...etc... promote the value of music education.
Something`s missing...I believe that there is no specific purpose of making this project.
What is your goal anyway?Raising money for the dying children of Africa? Is this song dedicated to the world`s music education? Why don`t you make a song for unemployment or for the human rights or for our planet`s climate?
I like the song but you`ve got to give me a good reason to love it!

@IOANNIS69ORIGINAL Cool? i didn't ask. YOU asked what the reason for this was. I'm only answering, no need to get mad I'm a 17 year old student in high school leave me alone. It's actually pathetic that you typed that much to 1 person, why don't you go make a difference. this video was meant to send a message not to save children?
@RockandPartyJon Sorry if I have made you feel ungry but the truth is that I thought you were a member of ROTU. Anyway I didn`t type that message hahaha I just copied and pasted it to you.(taken from the Children`s Defence Fund research library). My personal point of view is that there are more valuable human necessities to support and fight for than a simple promotional video song that was made from Berklee students...
ROTU has got to take some action not just send a message.
@IOANNIS69ORIGINAL Hello Ioannis69original ! Happy New Year! I'm very sorry it took so long to get back to you. I understand your confusion as to the purpose of Rhythm of The Universe, sorry for this. Rhythm of the Universe was created as a way to show people the possibility of a united world. It is way to show people how we were already living inside the walls of Berklee. There, music brought us together and knocked down the walls that normally would separate us.
When we play music it's not about religion or politics, it's just about people and music. Sadly, a lot of people don't see this way of living as a possibility, so we are here to prove otherwise. As for music education , we firmly believe in its value and its potential to change lives, it personally has changed mine. As we are a relatively new project there are few things that we are able to do right now, but we do have big plans for the future.
I personally have been a part of a project called Beyond Borders, which we would love to support, that brings music to underprivileged children. We are a small group but it is amazing to see the effect of what just a few people with guitars and djembes have on children that are repetitively neglected and not allowed a chance to express themselves.In that manner I do believe music education has the power to save a child. These are the things ROTU is working its way to do.
I understand we will never be able to please everyone and there are many other causes and problems that need attention, but for the moment as musicians this is what we know and have chosen to do. I hope this clears things up. If you have any other questions please don't hesitate to send us a message and I'd be more than happy to answer anything. Hope this new year brings a lot of love for all of us! Much Love, Gabriel Peguero
International unity. Togetherness. Collaboration. People around the world coming together to produce an amazing piece of music is cause enough for me to love this song.
Felicitaciones!!! Ustedes son las estrellas destinadas a señalar el camino de la PAZ a toda la humanidad. Gabriel, tu ejemplo de entrega te hace merecedor de copiosas bendiciones!
@diminishedwholetone Really? Do you go to Berklee College of Music on a full-ride? The guitarist in there definitely knows what he is doing, it just didn't need more than he did. Overwriting is the number 1 reason "artists" don't become successful.
totally agree with Roger: folks! you are a joke around Berklee, you need to know this. The world needs true musicians, true people and stop to hide behind the word PEACE. You used tons of people to make the video without paying a penny, because you know how to use things and people... and this is being smart, not peaceful. Lift up your spirits and be true.
if you want to find world peace with your hands, then do so with YOUR hands.
You want peace, and you spew conflict from your lips, to deny an effort to create it. What sense does that make?? If you are someone who desires peace, then desire peace. Fight with peace and dont advertise for someone else, just because of an opinion.
I love rotu, and I do it because it's potential for change is enormous.
Imagine the whole world, singing one song, together, at the same time, in every language.
Imagine for a second, everyone, outside, with eyes raised and heads held high, screaming out their frustration in one way, "Yeaaahhhooo, yaaahhhiiiyeeaaooo."
Peace is done on every way that can make a touch to the souls and trasnmite a message of priority for the needs of the world, not only a work with the hands full in the dirt with people in need, if not, working with the soul able to do the service of warning to these people who don't know what's going on around the world.
Greetings from Dominican Republic, very proud of the work, keep that good work!! congratulations Gabriel Peguero and to the other guys!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
...you really are so scared of criticism that you are deleting all the posts that do not agree with your project? I will repeat this again and again: you are a SCAM, a big one! Peace is done with hands full in the dirt with people in need. You are greedy of notoriety and don't believe in Peace BUT in business and $. And many people knows it. Daniel Barenboim, he is a TRUE musician that REALLY works for peace, not like you with your stupid message... THANK GOD THAT EVERYBODY IS NOT A MUSICIAN!
@rogerblue3 Hi Roger, My Name Is Gabriel Peguero. I want to sincerely apologize for the deletion of your comment earlier. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I promise this will never happen again. Please feel free to message me if you would like to talk about the project, any doubts or questions about it. I would gladly explain anything and as I best can, testify on my experience and belief in the project. Also I will definitely check out Daniel Barenboim, Thanks ! . Much Love. Gabriel.
@rogerblue3 dude u r pathetic...like wow...just a super special person...i dunno wtf daniel barenboim has anything to do with this...he's a classical pianist and u sir are a douchebad dipsh*t loser...go f urself cuz u'll never have anyone u sick pedophile
I find this video highly deceiving. Although they title it, "Rhythm of the Universe", it only includes Planet Earth. OH, and world peace is never achievable.
All good! Great voices unite, keep spreading the song and the message
Aye OH..easy to chant. Hey you over there,
sister and brother, many have sung it, time to make it happen.
