  • This man is truly inspirational !!!

  • wow

  • love love love love!!!!!!!

  • Oh how I wish I could have been in that audience! What a beautiful and legendary performer he is.

  • I love this songs. Brings back a lot of good memories. Good memories.

  • Thanks Cherri. The lady who sang backup on this tour Suzanne Lynch, was also the vocal coach and backup singer when I appeared on Stars in their eyes. Imagine how nervous that made me feel lol. But she was able to give me some great advice and said Cat was a beautiful soul and they still keep in touch today. She is from New Zealand and married the bass player on the tour.

  • i love his power.

    he's the music.

    that's beautiful.

  • What a great performance!!

  • THIS IS MUSIC <3 Nothing like old Cat Stevens... such a brilliant song and beatuful version! PEACE NOT WAR PEOPLE

  • No other artist could ever give out the feelings like Cat Stevens does!

  • Great song

  • 19 people think its not a wild world

  • @Thesupernoah1 Those 19 personas live in a fantasy world...! (are not realists)

  • @Thesupernoah1 dry.

    

  • one of my all time favorite, bringing memories..... i could relate to this song .... taking care of my two younger sisters during our school days....being away from our parents to pursue our studies in the city is a big task for me then....

  • This guy is Real Genius!

  • We need to look back to listen to good music! Todays music.....

  • 18 people don't know what heart and soul sound like

  • He's started touring again. I wish he would come to the USA

  • Tight song but he was totally tripped during this concert

  • Wow!

  • much love to Yusef Islam...great music, great song!

  • Simply amazing version of an amazing song!! Makes me wonder if I'll be giving that speech to my daughter when she's grown

  • Alucinante.....Sigo escuchàndolo y sigo fascinada.

  • @maysongbird ....... he was famous also he still famous.......we love Yusuf Islam. :)

  • so much passion so much soul so much real music! Hope i´ll find a girl listening this songs together with me

  • This song reminds me of when i was 21 and walked into a pub where there were quite a few older people and went to the juke box; they were all worried about what horrid music i was going to put on and i chose this song. They all smiled, ha ha

  • Is there any dubt about this man was gooing to be a good muslim :-) Just look at his nice beard already in the early 70ties. He has always been an islam man. God bless him for that! Islam is european tradition too!

  • I will always remember you as Cat Stevens, never as Yusuf Islam. By the way, I love your beard. You are an original man. You have many charms. Llenas mi vida de felicidad. Te quiero.

  • I will always remember you as Cat Stevens, never as Yuful Islam. Me recuerdas mi juventud. Te adoro.

  • i usually like rock or metal. but one day, i was scrolling down my iPod without looking, and i clicked on this song by accident, and i liked it! Mr. Big also did this song on the album Bump Ahead, but this one is still better to me!

  • Had forgotten how good he was/is. My first album when I moved from my parents 1972 was a Cat Stewens.album ! I played over and over again.

  • Comment removed

  • He'll be playing in Sweden in May 2011! What an awesome show it will be!

  • i'm 17 yo and i really prefer the music from 60's and 70's than the stupid music that my generation hears, and cat stevens is one of favorite singers his voice is just amazing, when i listen his music i close my eyes and i fell so much peace inside me

  • @hugoralu he still sings but he changed his name to Yusuf Islam :)

  • Cette chanson me rappelle mes jeunes années.

    Merci pour le partage.

  • LINDA MÚSICA , A MAIS BONITA DE CAT STEVENS.

    excelente compositor e cantor. Talento impar.

    Muito grata

  • you are my idol since 1971

  • Adoro esta música de CAT STEVENS.Acho que é uma das mais bonitas que ele compos e canta maravilhosamente. É uma pena que não achei um video com legenda ou traduzida. Nas canções que gosto sempre de ouvir não poderia faltar esta!

    grande cantor, grante compositor!

  • es genial

  • gorgeous man, gorgeous music - doesn't feckin matter what fucking religion :)) - just enjoy the man, playing his guitar anf rocking out like he;s making love;)

  • Every time I look up an old Cat Stevens song I see fighting about religous views. I wish everybody would remember that in the 70's Cat said the same thing he says now. That we all have the same Father, and that Father is God. It doesn't matter whether you are Jew, Muslim, Christian, or Buddist. We have the same Father and we must love HIM with all our hearts and not fight about our different religions.

  • Just heard this song for the first, just incredible. Gonna look for more of his music. To dummies criticizing his religion...is it possible that his religion influenced this beautiful music?

  • Great upbeat version of a classic!

  • Proof is in the video....when they panned out in the crowd....he was well liked, whatever his choice is now, is just that...his choice...thats what America is, freedom of choice.....remember him for what he was...and what his & others music did for us in our younger years....MANY MANY happy memories when listening to music from the 60's-70's!!!!!!!

  • ROCK ' N ' ROLL!!!!!!!!!!1111

  • Great love it.

  • stop arguing about math, physics, religion, politics, everything. none of that matters here. please, just listen.

  • @loonerspacecraft yes u have right but this redshirtish has started first and if u follow his comments in all videos for cat stevens or other muslims videos u will see as if he has war against muslims and arabs im like u i love cat stevens not because he turn to islam but i love his songs but i wonder why people attack every thing muslims before know islam

  • @lilikhaled but you're not seeing my point. what religion cat stevens subscribes to has zero relevance to the beautiful messages of his songs--it shouldn't even be argued about here.

  • I wish i could be there !!! born too late !! I think 70s is the richest in the music of all kinds....beat any other era by big margin....

  • 1976 war ich 11 Jahre alt und habe dieses Lied damals schon geliebt, so wie heute immer noch.

  • good bye n thank u too all my friends...

  • Maybe this was an encore that was left out of the concert on you tube...for what reason, I don't know.

  • ES UNA EXCELENTE CANCION CON LA CUAL RECUERDO CADA DIA MAS A MI PRIMO JORGE, DE VERDAD QUE REGRESA AL PASADO.

  • liking somone music does not also require a blessing for death threats

    to defend Sharia Law which made Cat Stevens incite other muslims to kill Salamand Rushdie for writing a book because you like Cats music is selfish.

    no one here including myself has said "all musim are terrorists" that is a lie and misinformation

    what I have said is a public person should not use TV to incite murder of another fellow human being

  • @redshirtish what a racialism in you? u r unfair please dont talk about something u dont know well and calm down...... in west u believe in freedom why u r very angry cause he become a muslim he knew the right religion and he is free and i wont talk about muslim kill or not because all world know that islam is a peace religion all of this from jews who own the media and spread not right thing about islam

  • @lilikhaled was a muslim from 1970s to n1980s still teach muslims

    I have a right to tell the violent muslims like Yusuf Islam you have no right to call for a mans death and islam has no power here

    the Jews are much brighter than arabs and certainly muslims have the lowest IQs since the west has to provide all their technology and science

    muslims are killing muslims today in pakistan and iran and iraq sunny bpmbs shia and the muslims are know for their childish intolerance grow up muslim

  • if u see muslim are too late go and read who teach u numers-Logarithm- algebra and how to make cloth if u read well u gonna see that arabs and muslims was in high level in era west were too daaaaark and ignorant in every thing

  • Comment removed

  • @redshirtish read and see how many arab and muslim scientists-Astronomers and astrophysicists-Chemists -Economists and social scientists-Geographers and earth scientists-Mathematicians-Phys­icists and engineers if we like this now that because west and jews like u who has hatred of muslims and wont muslims and arabs not to improve but to get back to their original progression that west built their progress

  • Absolutely loved Cat Stevens in the past and this is such an amazing song. This is before Cat Stevens became the person he is today that believes in fatwas against people who speak freely against his religion. Nothing peaceful there. Such a shame.

  • @Tigerella

    yes you are right nothing peacful here

    there is still the opportunity for him to see his bad deeds and correct it with loving kindness

  • Comment removed

  • @Tigerella u r the shame it self what a jewish

  • Can you see anyone in the nineties or later telling their GF "if you want to leave, take good care"? Different times, man

  • I love it

  • He looks like he's gotta pee through the entire song!

  • an this world is getting wilder and more cruel...........what happened an't we suppose to evolve to the better or are humans so stupid i think we are......

  • Best version.

  • Never want to see you sad girl :) x x x

  • Love this song. 

  • nice en cool....

  • Music only:-)

  • HOPE ALL OF THE AUDIENCE REVERTS TO ISLAM!

  • @ciao532 HOPE NOT!

  • oh baby baby its a wild world....i am 17 yEARS OLD I KNOW CAT STEVENS FROM MY DAD...HE IS 50...i am from greece

  • @juventino4996 I know Cat Stevens from my dad too. Sometimes the old men actually know some good tunes!

  • @zakwyldenmyhead axaxaxaxax yeah!!!

  • ..... wild world: 40 years ago .... and now .... thank you for accompanying me nearly 40 years. Even my 16 year old daughter loves this song .... not featured ... pure by Cat Stevens. And still surprising: this version I didn't know ..... even better than the record version.

  • this is why im proud to be cypriot.

  • my god i cant believe how good this song is

    something this beautiful cant be coming from the deep dark disgusting pit which is humanity cat stevens must be one of those few rays of sanity happiness and purity

  • Oh baby baby it's a world! Reminds me of when I left home years ago, wherever home was?

  • @spacegirloo7 wild world... not world :P

  • Therapy thru music  ....

  • Awesome singer, you can tell by his live performances that he records his singing live too.

  • all the people in the whole world sing his songs, IT doesn't matter if his a muslam or Christians , black or white ,we must see more than that in him; a great man with great music.

  • It would truley be such a Blessing IF the Muslims and Christians and Jews could all lay down their swords for once....and learn how to Live and Let Live in this World we all live in. I used to buy Cat's albums way way back in the years when I attended college. He really stood out in the cultures of music at that time in space.

  • He was a great musician. Became a coward.

  • @PoohBahSpeaks

    LOL!!,

    Why is he a coward?

    he is the bravest person.

    He became Muslim and defends his religion.

  • @PoohBahSpeaks why a coward, everyone has the right to re-discover themselves

  • I love this song¡¡¡¡

  • The 14 people who disliked this are rotting in hell

  • I love this song....

    Listen to it as a father giving advice to his daughter...

    You might hear it a little different...

  • 72 virgins sound great to me in paradise!

  • EXCELLENT AS USUAL, THANK YOU FOR POSTING!!! GREAT SONG, GREAT MAN, GREAT MUSIC!

  • This is the Cat Stevens I want to remember forever -- full of life and passion. The man who exists now looks like he's waiting around for his 72 virgins in paradise, and fearing that the invisible man in the sky might not like his lyrics to Wild World. So sad.

  • @zabroworman Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, RoadWarrior chose to voice his, and it's not in your place to criticize him for doing so. He wasn't overly rude, he didn't attack you personally, he merely expressed his opinion. I'll admit myself that I prefer Cat Stevens to Yusuf, however the man is still incredible regardless. Telling him to "shut his trap" is silly on your part. I suppose you go ahead and tell anyone who you don't agree with to shut up?

  • Comment removed

  • @RoadWarrior35

    all the people in the whole world sing his songs, IT doesn't matter if his a muslam or Christians , black or white ,we must see more than that in him; a great man with great music

  • I was at this concert ... and the one in Cleveland 2 days later ... Such Pathos and Strength He has ... and his inner child just glows ... and comes thur his body soul and voice! xoxo

  • @Aurarisma you are damn lucky! wished i could experience what you've experienced

  • @chipon31 I really was lucky to have grown up in that era .. and to see so many of Cats concerts .. He played Madison Square Garden in Nyc and did the whole song "Foreigner Suite" Have you ever heard of that one .? xo He is doing a Euorpean Tour starting in May 2011 maybe you can go .. !

  • @Aurarisma I'm only 18, but cat stevens is definitely in my top 5... It's one of my dreams to see him perform live before i die.

  • @Balksa

    Keep that dream... They do come true!

  • @Balksa I saw him perform last year in Adelaide, South Australia and he still sounded just as good. I think there's a good chance he'll come to your neck of the woods..

  • @Balksa Oh, I can squarely understand you! Im 21 and saw him couple days ago live in Vienna. It was amazing!

  • @Balksa

    Im only 18 to and my dream is to see him preform. When I was 6 my grandpaw's band would cover cat stevens' music and thats when I fell in love with cat stevens. I been a fan since then.

  • @Balksa same :)

  • @Balksa

    Or he dies XD

  • @Balksa ull find him on the moque

  • Comment removed

  • @Balksa I'm 14 and I feel the exact say way. He's in my top 5. I'd also wished to off seen John Lennon live. Oh why couldn't I' of been born in this time era :(

  • @Balksa im only 14 and cat stevens has deffinalty changed my life, i just wish more kids my age would listen to cat , and just chill .

    it would be amazing to see him live, its deffiantly my life long dream .

  • Cat Stevens LIVE is AMAZING =D!!!

  • Hard to see how anyone can give this a thumbs down... I would give it 3 thumbs up if I could :)

  • Desde niña me ha gustado este tema ahora siendo una vieja me aferro a ella como un himno pues representa lo que vivimos en este paso por la vida. Slds. de una niña vieja.

  • Daniel Grayling Fogelberg

  • And Tom Waits. There I'm done.

  • And Cat Power and Johnny Cash. Wow,this is hard.

  • It's an unforgettable song.

    Thank you!

  • skins

  • questa sì che è musica!

  • Hmm. If you imagine him as Jesus this video is quite comical :L Cat Stevens rocks my world,Yusuf Whatever sucks :/

  • @SuperUkuleleGirl : But why??? It's just anotrher name, isn't it? And another religion. But it's still HIM. =D

  • @sesigret es it's still him but sans talant..

  • @SuperUkuleleGirl : Mhh. Yeah, I really can understand why you are thinking that. But I think he isn;t without talent now but with another kind of. I think he is just... different. But not bad in my opinion.

  • @sesigret I dunno. I don't think it's the same. If you make music souly about religion and politics then you risk losing heart. But then again thats just my opinion. I just thikn he seemed so much more about the music as Cat Stevens :)

  • When 95 Mohammed had a woman and she was concidered the mother of all muslims, Mohammed married this woman after she died in a car crash.

  • I think Cat Stevens/Yusuf Islam is (nearly?) the only artist who sounds better live than singing in studio. He reminds me on my childhood and I have to cry at every damned song. He is one of the 10 greatest artists on the world, I think.

    Thank you for these little soulmates you call "songs", Yusuf.

  • @sesigret Lets start a poll shall we? Who are the ten greatest artists in the world? Now sit back and watch the controversy :)

  • @SuperUkuleleGirl : Oh yeah, would be great!

    I think Cat Stevens and the German band "die toten Hosen" have to be there. And also "die einstürzenden Neubauten" (yes! I'm German =D) Mh, let me think... Johnny Cash. AND: all these ald classic rock bands! The Who, The Beatles, ...

    Ooooooh, THAT will be more than 10. Maybe 1000? XD

  • @SuperUkuleleGirl Cat Stevens, Rod Stewart, Elton John, Dan Fogelburgh (died 2007) John Denver (died), Christopher Cross, Celion Dione, Susan Boyle, Their are bands Eagles, BG's, -------------OK these are my picks

  • @midgedanny1 Right,my 5 cents. Off the top of my head Hendrix,Billie Holiday,Kate Bush,David Bowie,Thom Yorke,Bob Marley,Gil Scott Heron,Pink Floyd,Lisa Gerrard and Serj Tankian..and Blondie..and Cat Stevens :)

  • @SuperUkuleleGirl Another one that I forgot was Chris DeBurgh, he is really fantastic and never given credit for his work.....And Jay Black of Jay and the Americans...

  • @SuperUkuleleGirl 10greatest artists...(in the order that i think of them):PinkFloyd, supertramp, Harmonium (from the quebec.canada), Beau Domage (also from quevec) Les colocs (quebec too) AC/DC Queen, john lenon, ozzy ossbourne AND OF COURSE CAT steven. Note that im 17 and most of these groupe are Dead/Disbanded/having solo carrer...and mostly from 70's

  • Ahhh perfeito eu amo muito! (L)
