¡Tiene tanta maestria que pone los pelos de punta!

[mark18709]

[titaniorojo]

[patkovic]

veća sila od 10 simf orkestara

[TheAlejandritoV]

SO AMASING! I feel amasing listening to this song..

[tejaswoman]

Unbelievable talent -- why aren't we hearing/seeing him anymore? He's around ...

[angellmoody]

Can't belive he is blind and still plays guitar

[paygi110709]

Well my friend, you play whit your fingers not whit you eyes

[Tina1661]

he's a genius!

[YTSForever]

He sounds so similar to Bill Withers, in my opinion, might be blasphemous, lol but Jose played this better lol

[mickygee50]

STILL SOUNDS BRAND NEW !!!!!!!!! AGREAT SONG AND GUITAR.

[TommiStachi]

simply perfect

[bugsbbunny]

Fingers fluttering as if independent from his body.

[sysprog0101]

Wow! Jose Feliciano is in a class of his own. He is pure emotion and improvisation!

[TheJan8421]

I lost my mother last year and I deeply feel that since she has gone, there is no more sunshine in my life . . . this song to me is a song about my mother.

[hardgreenhorn]

awesome!! -thanks so much for sharing!! ^^

[Top100Guitarist]

Again, like in California Dreamin', Light My Fire, or in any Beatles song and many others, Jose Feliciano is the only then can really musically re-write each song like his own. A true genius like musician, soul singer and again, the most incredible guitarist of this world...

[ndxinroy7]

it's so sad that he will never see what magic he creates when he performs. He is a bundle of inspiration for me...

[Edellakavija]

Thanks for this video! José Feliciano is one of the greatest guitarists. He has that feel in his play, that not so many guitarists have not. And ofcourse that amazing technique when playing classical or electric guitar. And he shows us that blindness is not a such big barrier against succesing on something that you love.

[vw1971]

...and the winner of World Idol is!!!....

[Boricua4Christ]

Jose is a beast !!!

[fuman1964]

Jose is the man! obviously it's a Bill Withers song, and he did it awesome! but this is the version I remember most growing up in the 70's!

[1Wraiths1]

Happy birthday Jose!



[Sapper19er]

This man has to definitively be the best guitar player in the world. Makes you wonder how Hendrix would have played if he were still alive!

[Xeno7241]

This song feels more like the hindrance of blindness, more so than the presence of a woman. I know its about a female, but when you listen to the lyrics it fits the blindness.

[Thatblack1]

I came..

[mrtoz965]

Amazing, wonderful!

[tanita50]

This is pure genius!

[argesdu]

Un mago en la guitarra!

[WittleJJ]

HEY JUSTIN, this is how you play a guitar.

[zorromasked]

"Ain't No Sunshine" is a song written by Bill Withers from his 1971 album Just as I Am, check Bill Withers out on youtube he is the Best

[baadshepherd]

I love the generic top rated comments on music that is pre-1980:

"Music today sucks, this was much better."

What will they be saying in 20 years?

[XxHooksxX]

@baadshepherd

Probably the same thing. This music actually talks about something, just as nearly all bands did in the past, but now it's slowly turning into a bunch of commercial shit and a lot of people can't stand it, only the idiot masses which is mostly comprised of preteens/teens keep it popular.

[vientodepaz]

I LOVE Jose Feliciano !...

[scraps270]

we have gotten so far off the beaten path of whats considered music that even if some of the new singers had talent you wouldnt know it. glad i got to live thru this time.

[coolwipp10]

John Mayer who??

VIVA ESTE DIOS DEL GUITARA!

[TheKulCat]

Jose Feliciano is the real deal!I had the pleasure of seeing him in concert at a small dinner club our seats were 15ft. from him I could have closed my eyes and thought someone was playing his record!If you ever get a chance to hear him live Jose will blow you away!

[groundadmission]

@TheKulCat

Saw him at a festival69/70?,just after Mungo Jerry who had caused a sensation with"In the Summertime",The guy came on stage, played 3 chords and the 30,000 raucous crowd were eating out of his hand;one of those shivers up the backbone moments!!

[mamasita107]

Jose sings this song beautifully and then freaks it! BORICUA AL FIN!

[dixielatino]

84 dislikes know jack about good music .

[666devilfabricater]

[besamemucho5]

i just listened to sting singing the same song and he can't get it like jose or bil withers...jose feliciano is incredible...

[Ciera123004]

@besamemucho5 the song belong to Bill Wither...look at it; it was 1972 a lot of cheaping/racist in the music industry to take away someone title.

[besamemucho5]

@Ciera123004 i know the song belongs to bill withers ....but jose is doing an incredible job here, that is all i meant....

[PressPressPress1]

facebook Jose feliciano add friend

[teabaggersmakemepuke]

[MinistryOfSillyWalkz]

such dark irony... of course there´s no sunshine, he´s blind!!!!

[vinnothelizard]

geni ass

[travelshaft]

That's talent right there-not to mention the man was handicapped!!!!!!!!!!!

[DeepDarkBlue6]

[619fcbgio]

This is the definition of a music artist.

[thisNewFoundLand]

...magnificent artist.

Incredible fusion of styles and rhythms.

A voice for the ages...

[jovilareina21]

wow Jose Feliciano you are the best!!



[elcorama]

Ain't no Sunshine (No brilla el sol) es una canción compuesta e interpretada en 1971 por William Harrison "Bill" Withers, Jr. (Bill Withers). Su version más conocida es la del cantante Michael Jackson, correspondiente al álbum Got to Be There. Este sencillo no tuvo mucho éxito, pero es considerada como una de sus mejores canciones de sus primeros discos (Got to Be There, Ben, Forever, Michael, etc.).

José Feliciano, Sting, Lenny Kravitz, entre muchos, también han interpretado esta canción.

[elcorama]

this michael jackson´s song

esta cancion es de michael jackson la canta muy bien

[dnsingable]

@elcorama no, it is a bill withers song..

[PrinceD4rkstR]

Whoa .. slow down.

[midnightren]

Thats what you call singing with feeling..... to me the very best version of this song

[chickenis69]

84 reasons for use condoms!

[1221lopez]

dam this sounds good!!!!!!!

[tony3stix]

Who the he11 gives this a thumbs down?!?!?! The man is a legend. You don't have to like it as much as the Bill Withers version but you do have to acknowledge greatness. Those of you who gave it a thumbs down or left negative comments you are a sorry bunch of clowns.

[chapalapachala24]

maestro



[WolfEyesatNight]

Jose is so under rated in Latin America. his style and voice are really great.

[jbragadeesh]

freaking good version !!

[arcotsarathy]

Joes, plays the song faster than the others, reminds me of the roadrunner lol, but very nice dude, you got talent SO LETS JAM up

[damircro1975]

great! foreweer!!!

[damircro1975]

great!

[AtomicXgameR]

glad to be puerto rican haha

[hydrojet7x70]

this guy butchered this song. sorry dude

[livesforthemusic609]

@hydrojet7x70 its different tard

[MartianSanta]

@hydrojet7x70 why do you say that? it just as good as withers version, at least that what Bill Withers thought . he liked it so much he had Feliciano play the guitar in one of Withers own albums, "Justments".

but your musical observations are so advanced and exact that every one including the artist who wrote this song fail to see what you can see.

you don't have to like it. you don't have to listen to it either.but no one cares for your opinion! keep your dairt to your self.

[Top100Guitarist]

@MartianSanta ...exactly.. and Bill Withers was guest and plays acoustic guitar, wrote some songs for the Jose Feliciano album "Compartments" in 1973...

[fanivilchez]

A voz inconfundível, singular e linda, torna qualquer música especial.

[3point14rat]

Genius.

He more than just an xmas song singer (although he totally rocks in that category.)

I often ask, when confronted with a difficult decision, WWJD. Others do too, but when they do the 'J' doesn't stand for 'Jose' like it does for me.

[msboricua57]

wow! what memories of my childhood que viva jose i love you always!!

[chechito1010]

fabuloso !!!!!!

[yakirZush]

where i can get better quality of this?

[friendlytec]

This is a perfect take off from the Original, Great...

[McBane10]

LMAO at 0;59, "I'm going to leave the young girls alone." I hoped you would anyway José!!

[larryboyofok]

This guy still amazes me, I remember seeing him on Johnny Carson years ago and was just blown away at his guitar playing and his singing is also great.

[Sports570]

Bill Withers still knocks this one out of the park...but Jose cirles the bases, too! He was a genius.

[SollAr56]

What a Rythm couldn't imagine anything else....

[ivan89705]

blind man sunshine

[dsorceres]

Puerto Rico querido, lo tienes todo; the good, the bad, and the ugly...........Orgullosa de mis raices; el cielo y la tierra que me vio nacer.............

[bawan44]

DAMN this guy looks like the guy from no country for old man :D

[blazneg2007]

@bawan44 It's the same guy... jk He does look like Bardem in No Country though!

[thebellemann]

he has giant feet btw

[esauerkraut]

See here a young man at the pinnacle of his talent...if this doesn't carry you away, well, that's a shame. Look at those strings moving...smell that Latino flavor and emotion..let that beat carry you away....what a talentd man.

[naturalboy22]

poli kalo leme

[293sunny]

I was lucky enough to have seen him live on stage once in a lifetime.. Unforgettable!! You are one of my true inspirations Jose (by joshuakunzechannel)

[BlaZiiNxIIxGuNn3R]

what an amazing talent

[MrDanielbogal]

jose feliciano is the amazing guitar.....

[menios058]

You all think he can not see BUT he can see the music .... thnx for this song man !!

[caldoeoso01]

wow!

[milslund1]

Superb.....

[jooni90]

my parents had an lp with this song that i used to listen to when i was growing up. this brings back so many warm memories =)

[Hectornenuko81]

S U P R E M O ! !

[xadam2dudex]

this looks like the master tape taken from his tv show...have they released such tapes ?

[MultiBert07]

If one likes Jose, there is no one better. That of course is not true but he always sounds up tempo and has a great voice. This is one of his better songs, but also go for "The younger generation", "Que Sera", "No dogs allowed", and others...

[djbassey2]

A masterpiece.

[flclbeans]

I've been lookin' for tabs of his specific version of this song and I have not found any. :S

Can anyone help me out?! lol

[MusicEd1]

It's always real and pure passion with this Jose and you can feel it. He always puts his own stamp on whatever cover he does. He makes it his own and that's the mark of a real artist. He seems to approach a cover as rough sketch, but fills it in with his own lines and paints his own picture, until you almost forget that it's a cover of someone elses work. Respect. Peace.

[jojosf42]

Jose is awesome

[xero3986]

hard to beleive hes blind

[surfdogdude]

Smokin'!

[ANTHONY773able]

GREAT SONG

[NCreature]

Fuck the auto-tuned crap of today...This is real singing.

[stevierigsby]

@NCreature yeah - but imagine how awful it'd all be without it! we'd have ta walk round with our fingers in our ears incase we accidently heard radio one or stuff... :0)

[turkwarg]

@stevierigsby not at all, till 90's there was no auto-tune but were really great singers&songs. now, most of them are only stars

[gregonline6506]

der latino ray charles schmeißt sich weg an der klampfe, macht was eigenes daraus, dieses lied ist wirklich eines der schönsten... und diese version gehört ganz sicher zu den gelungensten!!! ¡olé josé!

[slayerkicksass1]

i love his emotions!!!!!!!!!!!

[greatbighand]

I am not a fan of Feliciano, I think he has a tendency to go over the top, like he has always to demonstrate something. But this is the best thing I ever heard from him. I think it's the Wither's song which allows him to do whatever he wants.

[chrysabra]

gipps live on forever

[DamaKameliowa5]

super

[FloridaRaider]

love these old videos

[jingobusu]

great!!!

[jbragadeesh]
