Chet Atkins - Yellow Bird (Instrumental)

[deonal]

[thursanhakim]

Laudenanuma, Haiti's govenment created the horrible poverty and illnesses that result as a lack of proper hygiene. Haiti's leaders have consistently, since the French left, stolen and raped Haiti's resources to enrich themselves. Remember the Duvalleirs? Please, Americans have always rushed to lend a hand as has the rest of the world. We wish the people of Haiti well. God loves us all. This is indeed a beautitul song that I learned in paino class when very young.

THE ORIGINAL VERSION OF THIS SONG IS KNOWN AS: CHOUCOUNE FROM AN 19TH CENTURY HAITIAN POET NAMED, OSVALD DURAND. HE WAS BORN DURING 1800S. THIS SONG WAS MADE POPULAR UNTIL 20TH CENTURY BY A HAITIAN SONG WRITER. THE MELODY OF THIS SONG IS VERY POWERFUL . MANY HAITIAN WOMEN KNOW A GREAT DEAL OF SECRET THAT HIDES BEHIND THIS SONG. NO MATTER HOW SPOIL A LITTLE BABY IS , ONCE A HAITIAN WOMAN STARTS SINGING THIS SONG, THIS SPOIL CHILD WILL FALL DEAD ASLEEP. I STILL NEED TO FIND OUT MORE.

A classic melody

[BigDumbJerk]

Did you lady friend leave the nest again?

That is very sad, makes me feel so bad.

You can fly away, in the sky away.

You are fatter than me.

[whogivesanut]

i always knew it as "you're more lucky than me" as the last line

[smoothoperator1986]

What great calming music" I would love to sit in a state of the art garden and listen to this song all day long"

Chet Atkins recorded 'Yellow Bird' at least twice: This one was for an album called 'Class Guitar', and was done with an acoustic, if I'm not mistaken.

The other recording was done with his Gretsch electric 'Country Gentleman', for an album called 'Caribbean Guitar'.

[geoff1945]

My friend friedhelm (MyOldy) directed me to this site. I think he is hinting that my version of Yellow Bird could be improved by changing the image to something more beautiful such as these pictures are.

A beautiful and thoughtful collection worthy of many stars.

I apologize to everyone who was kind enough to leave comments and rate my simple video. I have had some personal problems and haven't been online in awhile. Thanks to everyone and especially Jimmy who has sent me email and shared his videos with me. Again, my sincere thanks to all. -- Cliff

[jgelhaar]

Cliff,

Thank you so much for the nice comments. This video is really pretty and the music is awesome!

You did a great job on it!

You are not alone Cliff! We all have our share of rough patches to get through. Remember that it is what makes us stronger and better people. The good is much better when you get to experience the bad. I lost my mom when I was a kid. I'll never be the same of course, but because she died, I committed myself to the piano and that is why I do what I do today.

Great bird video and excellent guitar player.

[Ringcaat]

Not so much 'freedom'...but I do think about how awesome the bodies of living things are, such that they can move in so many graceful ways.

[jgelhaar]

Great video! Great music!

[DantesAbs]

[k6yardotcom]

When I watch birds fly, I feel "FREEDOM"
