  • this man is awesome. if you are ready to go he will take you to your sweet place.

  • let's take this feeling. Take it and spread it to your buddy who knows, seen and agrees with what you have said. Then within conversation that feeling will continue on to the next. No need for the large question just pass what you know, feel, know and feel along and with patience. Things that are known will be felt unknowingly. Things that are known will be felt unknowingly.

  • SHUT UP ! and listen.. Peace

  • i want to see him and paul simon sit down together

  • the world needs more artists like xavier!

  • He's a different breed of artist. The world needs more people with Xavier Rudd's outlook. Thoroughly enjoyed "Koonyum Sun" and hope he keeps the albums/tours coming.

  • there is something special bout this guy. i once met him at folky. he wa basicly shineing. it was a muddy festival ok. like no sun all wet and rainy. the only time i saw sun was when he came over this hill and the sun cracked threw for like a second.

    was amazing.

  • gold

    

  • words dont describe this man

  • pas mal Xav.....

  • seen him live, one of the best experiences

  • I think I'm in love. What a voice what a message.

  • I wish people would take THIS to heart as much as people take rap to heart...world would be a better place.

  • @walkabout990 dude totally wright...but artists like this are making the world a better place and man lets be part of the revolution that makes the world a better place... cause if your not part of a revoltion your part of a problem=)

  • Xavier gives me hope for the future. Goddess bless him - dear child of the earth.

  • awesome

  • This song is so greate !! Thanx Xavier!

  • Art garfunkle, esque, no critic, beautiful music

  • @LOVE2Flute

    Great voice that was a real good tune i enjoyed that thank you

  • Most excellent.  Perfect.

  • JP, you're right - he do sound a might like S&F - very fluid, lovely style!!

  • may i be the fool and venture the question, what is S&F? if its anything like xavier rudd, i want to know :)

  • LOL! I am so sorry! JP (LOVE2Flute) sent me this video & he said it reminded me of Simon & Garfunkel, & I was agreeing with him. I feel a little snobbish now, & I do not LIKE feeling snobbish - thanks for drawing my attention to this, brycecake, & no, you aren't a fool, but I was foolish!! Be well! But no, really, do you think Xavier sounds just a bit Simon and Garfunkelish???

  • Ohhhhhh I see. No biggy. It's right next door to G on the keyboard. And I kinda see where you're coming from. Quite the observation. :)

  • Well. Now you know, bc. I'm not only a fool - I'm also an IDIOT! You'r scratching your head and saying, "I don't get it - shouldn't it be "S&G, not S&F???" The answer is, yes it should. I had emphasized the FUNKEL part in stead of the GAR part. I'm still not sure I'm spelling Garfunkel's name right but I'm entirely too lazy to check. So the cat's out of the bag - I am a fool, an idiot, and lazy to boot. But no, seriously, doesn't Xavier have a similar sound as Simon and Garfunkel??

  • @LOVE2Flute

    WONDERFUL...

    thanks my dear friend for sharing

    Bozenka

  • @LOVE2Flute Beyond cool! Excellent.

    Thank you, Bro.

    peace. 

  • @LOVE2Flute thanks for this. wonderful!  :-)))

  • Poster, you forgot multi-instrumentalist. ;)

  • OZZIE OZZIE

  • so chill...

  • This is a nice song. He sings like Paul Simon.

  • Great song!

  • He puts on one of the most amazing shows. He is an extremely talented artist

  • Absolutely beautiful, enriching and truly honest with character and talent.

    I'm so proud to be a human being with values even more so than I ever knew.

    After being exsposed to a talent like Xavier who can deliver music like this for all to hear and share, I feel more comfortable to be me amongst nature and to just be who I've aways been... natural!

    Thanku so kindly for sending your warm values through your song(s) that are cherished so fondly within me ; )

    Keep on, xox

  • Couldn't have said it better myself...thank you

  • @natterstube this comment is about to be some of the cheesiest i've ever seen on youtube yet, lol but nicely said tho ;p

  • I'm seeing him tonight in Edmonton.

  • I saw him tonight in Edmonton, great show!

  • peace and love. listen

  • : ] I like him lots. Why do you care who he sounds like? Everyone in the world is similar no matter what, don't deny it.

  • amazing artist. you can hear a bit of both Matthews and Simon in his songs but it is also incredibly original. What artist in the world can u honestly say you cant hear their influences in their music?

  • and the changes they will confront.

  • I see what you mean for Dave, but I'm also thinkin Paul Simon. Sweet

  • He reminds me a little of Dave Matthews at the start.. But he's still very much himself in all his awesomeness.

  • He might sound a little like Paul Simon here man, but he is no way a 100% rip off. Listen to his other songs and you will see that he is nothing like Paul Simon. And no doubt Paul Simon sounds like someone previous to him...that's the way it works.

  • you know when i saw him in ireland the posters were all comparing him to dave matthews, i have to say, i just don't get it. the only resemblance i see is they both have soft-spoken voices.

  • he is so much better live than dave matthews in my opinion, then again he is better than everyone in my opinion, and john butler would be second on my list :)

  • cool

  • very cool! i named my son after him.

  • Amazing.

  • it makes me mad that u can only find guys like these in australia

  • or ben harper, john butler....

  • yes i really don't think you beat the sound of a bill asher lap steel
