  • Deepest song I have ever heard this year, 2012. The combination is sooo perfect; John-very soulful, Pink-smooth n Herbie-the greatest pianist of all times

  • AMAZIIIING!!!!!!!

  • Woahhhh 4:13 Got Goosebumps BRILLIANT..:)

  • fucking brilliant!

  • This Song has Beautiful Melodies + a Great Story + Heartfelt Vocal Performance + Tasteful Solos & Arrangement = Music Masterpiece !!! and the Grammy Goes to Herbie Hancock - John Legend & Pink !

  • OMFG!!! I LOVE PINK

  • With Tal Winkenfeld in the bass guitar, John and Pink in lead vocals, Herbie on piano and Vinnie in the drums, I just can imagine how it would be with John Mayer in the electric guitar... That combination of talent would be just OUT OF THIS WORLD.

  • With Tal Wwinkenfeld in the bass guitar, wolud be KILLER if John Mayer played the guitar in this video. That combination sounds so great in my head.

  • wow that was fucking awesome

  • This is a great combination,woow i never thought P!nk can touch one's soul like this

  • This is so beautiful, such a simple yet dramatic arrangement that just suits the lyrics so perfectly. The music echoes the words being sung and Pink and John Legend were born to duet this. Very special:)

  • love this

  • Oh I love it , I love it!!!

  • Less is More and here is the prove, the guitarpart from this song: Wow!

  • So Good, Beautiful

  • john legend has such a beautiful voice..

  • beautiful!!!

  • The three singers in this video where amazing! If your wondering what I'm on about then listen again to Herbie Hancock make that piano sing awesome!

  • i love kateb&peter too

    but this take on their song is exquisite. and with Herbie's....

    I don't want to try to characterize the beauty of his piano

  • she has an amazing voice Lady gaga eat ur heart out

  • Pink nailed this. Wow.

  • Wat een super mooi nummer, kippevel

  • Please tell me this is released either as a single or on an album / cd

  • @2306mark Indeed it is. It's called "The Imagine Project". It's a collection of hits reinterpreted by Herbie and a vast amount of fantastic artists. Beautiful album that I can highly recommend :)

  • Tal Wilkenfeld,Vinnie Coliuta,Herbie,Legend and Pink.....very cool

  • Quanta umanità e vita traspare dai loro volti dai loro suoni,......

  • GOOSEBUMPS.

  • -Divine piano playing by Herbie here...less is more; just the "right notes" and perfect rhythmically phrased chords. I love it !

  • @perchrhalvorsen It's funny too, because Miles Davis once complained about Herbie Hancock "playing too may notes". Maybe he really took that comment to heart xD

  • epic

  • Top notch of course but what I"d like to say is Pink would seem to be one fine friend to have.

  • The best I've ever heard

  • @mcronin5

    the very best...... this song is my best ever

  • sensational in every way

  • 04:27...john legend's switch to falsetto...brilliance!

  • Great song from Peter Gabriel & Kate Bush - Don't Give Up

  • it's my favourtie song for ever i heard :*

  • I'm guessing this might be one of the most difficult modern songs to cover and do justice to it. Herbie, P!nk and JohnL do a wonderful job with one of The Gabe's iconic compositions. And yes, that looks like Tal W on bass to me too...who provides a wonderful reading as well.

  • P!NK!!!<3

  • Me comueve!

  • As a huge fan of Peter Gabriel, I would swear that no one could record a better version of this song until I heard Herbie Hancock, P! nk and John Legend. Peter Gabriel should be proud of this version. This song has everything.

  • I love this song so much I listen to it all day at the office especially when I am having a bad day. It speaks to my heart. John Legend and Pink have done more than justice to this song!!!

  • Holy smokes. That's how you cover a song that was awesome in the original: totally make it your own. This is really extraordinary.

  • Love.

    

  • Amazing... <3Herbie Hancock<3 is a genius in bringing the most talented Pink and John Legend together.... thanks for posting!

  • Just AMAZING! :) love it!

  • all i have to say is dam dam dam Pink and JL you guys are talented.

  • this song is musically brilliant!!!!!!!!!!

  • Fantastic song with wonderful singers ~ thank you for uploading ~ I lo♥♥♥e this song :)

  • there are people who does not like this song!!! are you kidding me???!?!?!!?!!?

  • at 3:42 - is that a soft Hammond in the background? Anyway: great way to bring in that gospel music flavor. In the original it was of course the fantastic Richard Tee on the piano.

    Anyway: awesome new version of a classic. Dream team!

  • wuauuu.... Hermoso, simplemente hermoso..........

  • Truly amazing ..the arrangements on this song is beautiful and so are the voices..

  • MERAVIGLIOSA x me questa canzone.grazie MRMeloni.grazie x avermela ricordata

  • OMG. When you see P!nk singing, you can see and feel, that she really meens every single word she sings! That's so amazing. I love her. <3

  • Legend is doing a great impression of Peter Gabriel! lol

    

  • is that vinnie on drums?

  • @Idrum671 looks like it

  • What a beautiful cover version of this song,and how appropriate that they got Pink in to sing her part in the song,She never gave up she never gave in,she basically said F***k you to all those whom doubted her tallent and went on to fllow her musical dreams,she knew in her own heart that she would deffinatley get her fans following her and her music career bacause she tells it how it is,and that is what people not only want but need these days. She didn't GIVE UP. BRAVO and hats off 2 this cova.

  • gosh, 4:30, love, love, love, Herbie's genious!

  • super fine ! love it !!

  • amazing <3

  • Pink is beautiful, her voice is beautiful, she is the whole package(:

  • John Legend is wicked!!

  • I wish the 10 million starving Somalians can hear this song . . I am so moved tears.

  • I wish mr Legend to sing all Peter Gabriel songbook!

  • 6 people have wax in their ears...

  • wow!! :O

  • I'm pretty sure the bassist is Tal Wilkenfeld.... who is pretty damn awesome :-)

  • @VictorDahl she is an unbelievable and awesome talent :)

  • @VictorDahl that's tal for sure. she is soooo killer

  • @VictorDahl yes, she is! she is great! :-)

  • very intense...

  • i feel like crying...the whole emotion in this song really speaks for me...

  • Hyacinth Nicole Browne

  • totaly love it... thx for this lovely performance :-)

  • Just sublime.

  • who's the girls at the bass?

  • Perhaps they have the ability to think for themselves.

  • Simply...perfect!

  • Who dislikes this video!! SERIOUSLY

  • I thought this version was very average. The best cover version has Maire Brennan and Michael McDonald. Unfortunally it's not available on youtube, Peter Gabriel has sung it with different women and the best female voices belongs to Kate Bush, Paula Cole and (now on tour) norwegian Ane Brun. He has also song it with Sinead O'Connor and Tracy Chapman both very bad version. P!nk sing the song above average - but Legend is below average in his performance.

  • @konrhs Seriously???? SMH

  • Beautiful

  • Beautiful!

  • I love Peter Gabriel soo much.. I never thought anyone could match his work..

  • accompaniment makes this tune cool.....

  • I have a Heart....this song is actually talking to me...

  • Disappointing. ALways risky covering a classic, found very little point to this. Far too corny.

  • Fantastic!  A favorite song, by a favorite artist, recreated to be even more amazing by more of my favorite artists? Who knew.

  • Perfection!

  • lovely!

    

  • ainda bem que deus não existe. éa musica é uma criação imperfeitad do homem. e se deus existe temos que extermina-lo. baukine já dizia sso. deus é como ultimo ciagarro de botequim assim dizem os poetas

  • well i dont meant it too juge but basicly my point is,most music from other singers are temparelly,like p!nks music will stay forever i gues,just a whole diffrent lever of music :)

  • Thank you !

    

  • i think p!nk is the most delacated and most pessionated person/singer who is into the music bussiness at this moment...atleast she makes music for the music it self intead of the money (yeah offcours she will be paid good offcours for sure ) atleast her music aint tha comurcial crap like lady gaga or britney spears pffff they suck and dont write their own songs like p!nk does! i'm btw not a huge fan of john legent but this combination is awasom! btw i like p!nks serious faces *lol i<3 this song

  • @SNOOPY198811 i agree with you but dont judge another singers... you dont have to point them out..!! ;)

  • ill always love this song

  • John did an incredible job at this song, which is difficult to do.

  • This is beautiful music ...

  • If anyone had ever told me John Legend, P!nk and Herbie would collaborate to make this song I would have said it was impossible for it to sound like this but happily I can most certainly see that I would have been horrifically wrong

  • The arrangement in this collaboration is out of this world! This is music done in the best way possible. True legends...Herbie, John, Jeff Beck..you guys are great. P!nk, what a voice!!

  • The arrangement in this collaboration is out of this world! This is music done in the best way possible. True legends...Herbie, John, Jeff Beck..you guys are great

  • chorei... juro!

  • When P. Gabriel and Kate Bush 1st recorded this song, I remember Herbie praising both the video and the song in an interview. Now years later it's come full circle. This song moves me every time I hear it.

  • 4 people have already given up....tsk tsk

  • A fabulous collaborative effort by artist from different genres of music! Stunning performance by Pink and John Legend....and Mr Hancock needs no introduction! Beautiful inspirational song!!!!
