  • Not the biggest brandy fan, but she nailed this. Jaheim sounds almost exactly like Teddy P

  • one of the best songs ever written. Everyone was featured in this video. R.I.P Nate Dogg!

  • ASHANTI!!!!

  • ONE word BRANDY. that girl can SING!!!

  • I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!

  • @Chayshaboze I sing this song in skool today it was f.u.n.

  • awww man i been lookin for this for years... all i remember was brandy's part WOW

  • ASHANTI !!!!

  • Xmas 2011 A paradign shift has occured recently unnoticed by most. Light and dark sides are clear now, the dark side is peopled by many good people who have simply been put to sleep.This song is a rallying call to all of those with a Warriors heart not to take up arms but to bring about peaceful change, to wake up the sleepers and bring them to the Light, to caring for each other, the planet and ending the corrupt systems that we have been accepting. Peace Love and Light Blessings to everyone.

  • Thumbs up if you skipped everybody else and went straight to Brandy!!!

  • Brandy fucking slayed!!!!

  • Brandy did that

  • I think it's claudette Ortiz from the group city high.

  • Can someone tell me the name of the girl singing 1:00 - 1:10

  • Brandy, Brandy, Brandy did the damn thing! Best part of the song.

  • REAL music. :)

  • who's the dude at 3:35 he's freaking amazing @__@ lol

  • @Skaaai2121 Jaheim

  • @Skaaai2121 I think that is Omarion. He is amazing.

  • The white dude is John B. He Is a great singer you should check him out. He got alot of soul.

  • YASS BITCH! YOU BETTER NOT HAVE A VERSE AND SLAY WHILE THESE LESSORS ARE SINGING ALTOGETHER HAHAHAHAAHAHAHHA BRANDY SLAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • 3:35 amazing ♥!

  • who's the white dude @ 2:42

  • i like this song..it's so uplifting

  • This video is so beautiful, it literally makes me cry every time I see it, and every time I hear this version of the song. This is the last time I’ve ever seen a bunch of artists unite and connect together like this. I miss these days. Wake up, everybody.

  • I so love this remake of this song....everyone did a great job!

  • Comment removed

  • 2:29 HOLY SHIT BRANDY

  • OMG FABOLOUS JUST WENT EXTRA HARD HE'S THE BEST HANDS DOWN

  • JADAKISS! AHAA! He is ill forever, best rap verse period! Man, this was so crazy seeing so many throw back artists. I love it! Mary J Blidge, Brandy, Monica, Babyface, Faith Evans, JON B! Not so throw back but still ill, Jaheim! Where did that dude go? I miss the 90's :(

  • Brandy ate this

  • i like this song this song is so true

  • BRANDY OWNED THIS SONG, AND SHE WAS JUST ADLIBING!! LOL

  • brandy slayed with adlibs alone. Love her.

  • omg that was Marsha Ambrosius.. She did loose alot of weight, but i still recognized her.. I love this song.. I get chills all over my body

  • "It's hard for one to do it, but we can make some changes together"...

  • "It's hard for one to do it, but we can make some changes together".

  • GOOSEBUMPS every time from Faith to Jadakiss! (I like everyone in the song though.)

  • I love this jam! Big ups!

  • Some great artists featured on this track, but I think the opening sequence in the actual film is untouchable, I just wish he had Paero sing the full version. Peace

  • THUMBS UP...If u hitting repeat button again!!!

  • Great work Babyface! they killed it man....I hope everyone gets the msg from this song and not just the melody.....Classic Miss Eliot / Brandy on the track!!!!

  • okay ashanti!!!! :) and Brandy :)

  • See PPl have to understand that BRandy is a unique voice~ That's why we don't colab her with everybody cause she's that Good! Listen to this over and over she was very much needed for the song, her and Faith Evans! Great Job Brandy we ready in 2011!

  • We're all on Brandy because she honestly doesn't get the praise and credit she deserves...she's a brilliant singer, and people just don't know...Yes, all the other singers on this did their thing, but Brandy shined like a true STAR! Go girl!

  • I absolutely love this. Babyface knows how to put some folks together tastefully. I wonder if he did the arrangement or somebody else. He gave them all an opportunity to shine. That's not easy. Haven't heard a masterful compilation like this since Quincy did it back in the day. Kudos!

  • Missy!!

  • you're all on brandy, sure she's amazin' but she's also surrounded by talent and don't forget them. five up to mary J, wyclef and the other who turned this song into a real fu**ing great song.

  • ASHANTI IS SOOOOOOOO WACKKKKKKKK YUCK

  • YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS BRANDYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!

  • Rate it highly, but I think the version that opens the film is banging, and the lyrics are memorable, how that film did not produce a soundtrack is just straight up criminal. Peace

  • BRAAAANDAAAAYYYYY!

    she's coming y'all, SHE IS COMING!!!

  • Missy's part - most killah

  • Jaheim is..... WOW in this song.

  • Brandy...Lord have mercy, set my soul on FIRE and sent chills through my body all at the same time!! Come on riffs and runs!!!

  • Jadakiss...that dude is too nice. By the way...who is my man @ 3:35?

  • @KrfNYC2 jaheim

  • this is my favorite song 

  • JADA IS DA BEST OUT

  • Brandy tears it up, amazing, can't wait for her new album. hopefully now his her time, and everyone will see the talent.

  • love this verison...esp. Brandy!

  • As much as I do like a lot of the artists featured in this sing, I have to say that this version of the songs sucks.If they had left Wycleaf Jean, Fabolous, Jahiem, Jadakiss, and Missy Eliott out and the song probably would've been good.

  • Yo Gobione and all the beautiful artists on this Video! And I mean it, you are all beautiful, talented, hearts S*H*I* N*I*N*G!

    I just posted this video to my Facebook Wall, with this note:Blessings in Every Way!

  • Comment removed

  • loved the song and brandi sounded amazing and jadakiss killed it with his flow.

  • real nice

  • The song STARTS at the 2:29 mark for me! Brandy's 35 seconds was pure vocal amazement.

  • i love all the artist in the video, but the only reason i watched it was because Brandy was in it.

  • i did a music project on this song in 10th grade....

  • downloadlink??????

  • right barbiedawn23

    

  • anyone know where i can get this song? or what album its on?

  • @barbiedawn23 you can find this song on bearshare or imesh

  • BRANDY WOULDVE GAVE WE ARE THE WORLD 25 EVERYTHING IT WAS MISSING. GOD KNOWS IT WAS MISSING A LOT.

  • B R A N D Y was not playing!!!! Vote to keep her on Dancing with The Stars. She is clearly the best this season has to offer! On mondays, call 1-800-868-3406 after 8pm-10pm. She has been on top for the last three weeks.

  • Wake up everybody everyone

  • wake up every 1 

  • love it love it love it

  • This is about a billion times better than the current John Legend remake. Jaheim might be the ONLY male singer who could've tackled this solo...and Brandy shows she's definitely still got it!

  • OMG!!! BRANDY BLAAAZZZEED!!!!!!!! THAT GIRL....!!! How is she so slept on??? CLEARLY she is the BEST!!!

  • This song needed more Faith. But, I can't knock the message!

  • Very nice! Teddy would be proud of this wonderful version.

  • Children are born into poverty not of their own making. While billions of pounds of food are wasted every year, our children go hungry. This video intends to shed light on a fixable problem. If we feed our children, health care cost go down, grades go up. Our children are our wealth. Invest early and often in the most primal need, food. And isn't it more humane? Please get involved however you can.

  • WOW !

  • BRANDY...that is all

  • Teddy Pendergrass who sang this breathtaking song has passed today. In his honor please let those words stick to your soul for all people to wake up. People in every corner of the globe are in peril. Haiti could be you or some one you love in a blink of an eye. Let these words enthrall you to do all that you can. Let no barrier stand in your way for the betterment for humanity. The world wont get no better if we just let it be we got to change it just you and me RIP Teddy 1950 -2010

  • Thanks so much Gobion! Makes me cry in a good way. This video motivated me to pay my own way, from Ca to PA , a swing state, to get out the vote, even tho I didn't have enough money to rent a place to live CA or PA! Just HAD to! Worked w/ ACT week-ends; weekdays wore an old fashioned "sandwich board" like the Depression, w/ CA bumper stickers, front &back, "SAVE A TREE, REMOVE A BUSH" kinda stuff, talkin w/ everyone I met..."You votin? why not?" Your hearts all came together, INSPIRATIONAL!

  • your message made it all worth while. Thanks for sharing.

  • @myheartsingz awesome video...good one gobione!!! <3

  • It's not about who sang the best...LISTEN to the message! geez

  • I really get tired people making competitions out of these songs that actually have messages in them. Who gives a damn who did better.

  • Faith Evans should have had a bigger part. her vocal range is crazy!!
