Ma coup de coeur

[714energy]

Why does he say bulldoozer. Also, the tracks are not rubber.

[dpuvaca1]

[Bigbeardcro]

[lcfa1962]

[a2aking]

[RemRoseDesigns]

I hope we find Grandpa in Jackson Square next visit to NOLA! Awesome Dude!

[hatenewbz]

How does he breath right when he sings? lol. I find it hard to do it.

[docMilla]

@hatenewbz  circular breathing like you do when you play any woodwind

[PREM00SE]

@hatenewbz Kenny G sustained a note for 45 minutes using circular breathing, and no that's not a typo. I do mean minutes, not seconds. Pretty nifty technique.

[MaitreTsu]

Beautiful history and culture in New Orleans, this would be a perfect place to hold the 2020 Olympics, do you feel the same. Support our cause with a like to our Facebook page. Thanks :D

[ilulk]

Juste merci.

[deadadelta]

[PeAraujo100]

muito bom... very good..

[uesirito]

Jesus i wish this guy could be my 3rd grandfather :D

[DeffQ]

17 people likes Bieber and techno music.

[sh7th3ad]

@DeffQ No. I would say 17 people have a different taste in music than you do. I hope you don't believe that the music you like... is the only good music.

Not to mention some techno is very good.. and if you only listen to one type of music then you will have a very strange perception of music.

Plus. For all you know.. 17 people just clicked the wrong button.

[MrHovnatvare]

grand pa elliott rulezzz:)) man.. i won´t go nowhereeee,,,

i love it... :))

[BiscuitsRawr]

He's inspirational.

[47zencreative]

See that smile? see that smile? Thats a man will happiness in his heart... :D

[tank2580]

[akeakami2]

[GloomFate]

I was playing along on my harmonica but then at the end he was doing some crazy bending and train sounds and I was like "woooooooowwww" no way I can do that

[musikjunkie78]

17 f***n' justin bieber fans

[kikitopuma1]

gracias pòr tus videos. especial por " Stand By Me | Playing For Change | Song Around the World "

[littlerosy1975]

Grandpa Elliot ur amazing, pure talent!!!!

[Sweeterace]

WHO THE F**K COULD DISLIKE THIS!

[jullemanden]

@Sweeterace A so called "BeLiber"... Slaves of the corrupt business that we call "pop culture". People who worry more about music videos and fashion than true talent and soul. Justin Beiber can't sing with the soul, damn she barely knows what life is, and yet she earn copius amounts of money. All the while people like Grandpa Elliot here has to sing on the street to get heard. The world is blind, very blind indeed

[darkangel041968]

@Sweeterace good point!lol

[johnnybizzy]

That is a real man, can't find too many like him any more, our world is changing for the worse.

[camador]

This man is pure soul & talent, period !

[wagl10]

The really south black voice! The best! Simplicity, talent, knowledgement and grace! Congratulattions from Brasil!

[mates000888]

YOU ARE MY IDOL Grandpa YOU REALY ROCK DUDE

[rockandjoy]

Damn, he's so talented .. and 16 persons didnt like it, seriously ?

[juhile]

@rockandjoy and 16 persons didnt like it is the person who can't even sing a song. WTF!!

[qazmlp12345678909876]

Bulldoozer.  Gramdpa Elliott is awesome.

[bmobruno]

he got the blues and the good music running on his vains...nowadays most of the artists we have are a big pieceof shit and just a beautiful face and money are reason to result in success.

[r1k5t3rr]

Is grandpa elliott blind?

[makuajunior]

@r1k5t3rr  yes

[MrValdir1957]

Esse homem é só emoção. Nota 1000...

[fujita0712]

Fannie Mae

[ShaunL1100]

Grandpa Elliot is my hero what a truly amazing human being. We need more people like him in this world

[veshflanders]

15 people pressed the dislike button by mistake. or they are just retarded. or deaf.

[alberto8478]

[rastafeet]

for you all guys out there....singer like lil wayne or britney or madonna or more they are in hand of freemanson they sing for something or .....you know....hollywood, billboard all in zionis hand.....they set already...for more info....checkout youtube "ARRIVAL"

[TheMarkAnthony46]

Thank you DesertRatDan, I'm glad someone else feels the way I do. You know this is not the first time this has happened to him. He will give the shirt off his back to anyone and if he didn't have one, he'd find you one. No matter how many times he gets FUCKED OVER he still keeps loving and sharing all he has His Spirit and that's mighty fine with me. I just wish I could do more for him I'm not an attorney of law but i wish I was because I'd sue those crooked bastards for all they stole from him.

[predator5723]

HELL YEAH!!!... the soul of blues itself run through granpa's veins!!!...

[ludovico9vonz]

MARAVILHA!!!!! SIMPLISMENTE MARAVILHOSO

[TheMarkAnthony46]

Hello my youtube family, i'm writing this because i,m one of many who LOVES Grandpa . I spoke with him yesterday and was told that once again in his lengthy career he may be getting "ROBBED" . People are using him making money off of him and he's not making a dime. There's artist who paint his portrait and sale it some as much as $8000 and don't give anything. There's books , postcards you name it people are profiting off of this beautiful man and keeping it . Can we come together and help him.

[DesertRatDan]

@TheMarkAnthony46 Man, that is Fucked Up! Why do people do that? I've purchased both of PFC's CDs and DVDs, purchased Grandpa's "Sugar Sweet" CD and took my wife to see PFC live in Mesa AZ last year. It was probably the best concert money I've ever spent and I think PFC is the greatest thing since sliced bread! These are street musicians who have struggled their whole lives and do nothing but share their genious and passion with the rest of the world. They deserve better!

[floydian1987]

@DesertRatDan amen to that bro

[alta8bird]

@TheMarkAnthony46 - Let us know the best way we can support him. Thanks.

[alta8bird]

[gunitdsnserg]

[umana93]

the real talent is out on the streets and the world is putting money into peoples pocket like kanye west WTF..

Grandpa Elliot FTW!! :)

[kingofdaherbz]

RIGHT ON

[Jackmoxx]

you could've gave a better example than kanye west, considering he really is talented. jackass. someone like...that chick who sings TIKTOK or some shit would suit better.

[jamesdakrn]

@umana93 Yes, we tend to not give credits to pure talent like this man, but Kanye, while being an asshole, is actually talented. your example would have been better served if it was Justin Bieber

[umana93]

@jamesdakrn he wasnt famous yet lol

[frostdelsol]

@umana93 Grandpa Elliot, a king among men, nuf said... :)

[YashRamisetty]

@umana93 hey man kanyes good, its ppl like kesha and bieb the world is giving money too

[piontro]

This guy is my Grandpa, he is the king of our home, the guy who says and rule what';s going on for the day. The Crackers( whites) have no love for their parents. They abandon their own flesh and blood to strangers. I feel sorry for them ( the crackers) when GOD comes back.,...
