  • "me gusta"

  • What did I do after I listened to this song? I pressed the replay button. What'd I say!

  • To think this was improv... my god, what a genius this guy was.

  • If Charles' performance would be properly timed we'd never hear such a massive song. That's scary thing to know, if you ask me. And he said he was gonna to fool around, haha! What a genius.

  • Top of the top !

    This music will never die !

  • the legend!

  • i dont even see a dislike bar

  • FANTASTIC !

  • "i'm 1X, and I wish I was born 20,30,40 years ago/todays music sux" etcetc.

    we don't give a f&@# who and how old are you, I only know that todays music isn't shit, you're just lazy to find good pieces in this jungle. You think it was different before? Time filtrated it, in 20 years some kid will say same things for this decade. It is up to YOU for which music will this decade be rememberd! Now, go out there, be brave, and search for new music, and be responsible for this generation inheritance

  • Siri

  • It's amazing what Ray Charles can come up with when his setlist runs a few minutes short. . .

  • Playing football to this tune

  • The Drummer! That finesse!

  • @LannyLanuel and a blind guy playing the fucking piano isnt the "Awe-factor" right? jeez

  • dubstep is way better than that....

    jooooooooooke :)

  • @jimouille18 thats not even funny

  • OMG! Unusual remarks on this video yet again.

  • Love this song :D

  • My mom had this record a 45! I used to play it over and over and dance to it when I was a little kid. I still like it 45 years later!

  • I'd like to point out something. You kids who are saying "I'm so young and today's music is bad" are far from alone. If you look anywhere (and I do mean anywhere) from opera to German death metal to even HIP HOP, you see the same thing: everyone says how today's music sucks. If it's not on the radio, the pattern is present. You're far from special.

    Now then, if we were to all go and hit the 'dislike' button on these artists' music videos instead of WHINING, we could really accomplish something!

  • @jmarrvin that's true, and also in every genre of music there's good singers still, but underrated'

  • siri

  • 0:00 Just one mo' time,

  • acording to rolling stone this is in the top 10 songs ever written. how in the hell does any of the other shit im hearing today have shit like 250 million veiws, and this has only 2 million. i'm sorry but i'm 19 and my age group and youger is a bunch of deaf ass clowns.

  • @danusmcgator Dude i'm 15 and i have the same problems

  • @danusmcgator im 14 and i agree wit u

  • @danusmcgator  Hey! I'm not :(

  • @danusmcgator Well said brah

  • @danusmcgator Isn't that special? Go fuck yourself Drone.

  • @danusmcgator first off this song isn't really that good it's just simple mood music for the any-man, but secondly to answer your question it's because they follow the crowd, their peers, doesn't matter how good something is, anything can be recirculated and memorized to be appreciated even if it's not good

  • @Rkmajora Fist off, your obviously entitled to an opinion. Secondly, this song is "that good".

  • @danusmcgator I'm only 23 but I have noticed something, every era has it's disco. It takes about ten years cream to rise to the top. When I was 11 the Backstreet boys were being called my generations Beatles by some and a band called 98 degrees were in regular rotation (if you don't remember them don’t look them up), now most people remember that era for Radiohead (OK Computer 97 Kid A 2000) and things like that.

  • @danusmcgator There's always been bad music around. And a lot of it has always been popular. But real music fans know where it's at.

  • @danusmcgator Fuck, you´re so right , I am 25 and I can´t belive the shit that there is no song which you can call real music today.When I am listening to this music I relaise how miusic should sound. FUCK JUSTIN BEABER ;LADY GAGA AND THE OTHER DICKHEADS WITH THEM!!

  • @danusmcgator are you fucking kidding? thanks to this we have todays music, yes music has had its "golden age" but we are still increasing our knowledge of music everyday, take dubstep the most recent branch from music, the detail and effort they put into it is amazing. The reason music videos like this don't have as many views is because the younger population want something they can feel. The younger population want fast paced and heavy music.

  • @dustybubbles2643 unless u mean justin beiber then i dont know what the fuck is wrong with the world...

  • @danusmcgator ray charles already had the 250 m views but not on youtube

  • @danusmcgator There ist a lot of good Music out there. Rolling Stones "Top 10 Songs ever written" lists are next to worthless.

  • 4:30 on is my favorite part!

  • If you don't feel like a million bucks after listening to this song, you may want to check into your nearest hospital. What a classic tune!

  • le roi !le top!!!ray Charles

  • Nestor Judkins!

  • Siri knows this song...

  • GREATEST SONG EVER

  • Titãs know?

    Listen: youtube.com/watch?v=Su_5UeQdAM­s

    Who came first?

  • le batteur !

  • I'm just wondering why blind people sing too well (Thumbs Up Ray)

  • tommy boy!!!

  • Your video is a favorite on Portugal

  • Thumbs up if you got here by Siri

  • funny when people have opinons on the internet like they really think their significant

  • did artists of the 70s do many music videos aside from say the beatles?

  • @BitOveRate

    Ray Charles was way before the 70s. He recorded this song in 59, and if you're alluding to "Boys" by The Beatles, it wasn't originally their song, but the original was released after this in the early 60s. I'm the biggest Beatles fan you'll meet, but this is an inaccurate statement, if you're even saying what I think you're saying. I thoroughly apologize if I'm way off bc I probably am, but if I'm right, you're welcome for the knowledge!!

  • @BitOveRate Queen did

  • i just wanna listen to ray charles! so stop talking about religion!

  • Religious arguments over a Ray Charles song.... I don't care what your religion is. Just debate about things like that in a place that ISN'T the comment section....

  • sounds like the beginning should be in the Sandlot lol

  • This is really great has every good feeling in it just keep listen and taste it to the end!!! (you will enjoy it!)

  • damn this song has soul

  • The Doors used this style for "Break on through"

  • easily in my top 5 fav songs of all time. this man was pure genius...

  • Haddam Killingworth Jazz Band rocks this song on a daily basis!

  • If this doesn't get your feet tapping ....you are deaf!!

  • A genius dont need eyes.

  • dobry kawałek d-_-b

  • THIS SONG IS FUCKING DOPE

  • i usually listen to rock and metal, but i absolutely love the song :)

  • LEGEND

  • I HATE 41 PEOPLE!!

  • 41 pessoas nao gostam de dançar !!!

  • one minute and thirty six seconds of piano....they just dont do that anymore...killer

  • guys please stop randomly talking about dislikes

    it ruins the ray

  • Goosebumps, here we come!

  • 41 dislikes? are those people idiots or something?

  • @psychedelia654321 During any vote 10 percent of the population is insane, and another 10 percent doesn't know what's going on. The 41 naysayers among 6532 voters amount to just 0.6 of 1 percent! With >99% Ray Charles is far more popular than anyone in public office.

  • 5:15 ''j'ai des puce au couille yeah!''

  • @hirondel36 HAHAHA LOL XD

  • Great intro!!!

  • what i want to know is how there are 41 dislikes......

  • @MrUnderdog493 'cause they are idiots that is why

  • @javezzz1 fuck no that would ruin the feel of this song

  • @afiman96 thats true

  • @javezzz1 DON'T YOU DARE!!

  • Goes great with coffee, pineapple and cigarettes and of course a big sun rising up from the bushes.

  • @Redflowers9 that sounds like an amazing morning, but mind if i switch the cigarettes for a blunt and a hot chica to dance with! greatest morning ever!

  • @AlexSHavok lol guess you topped it.

  • what 41 idiots dislike this song?!! wt.... aboSOULutey soulless and w//out a concept of what is truly an influential artist... learn to open your mind

  • this is the official best song of all time apparently

  • When I took Summer Intensive classes at my ballet studio, we did all kinds of dance. But, when we had our Jazz classes, we always danced to this song. I really like this song, Ray Charles is a very good artist.

  • we need 40 condoms and a time machine.... for yesterday its too late....

  • the king!!!!

    

  • I don't understand how anyone can dislike this.........

    What,,,,What's that......one more time

  • R.I.P. Ray, you are dearly missed!! Great song!!!

  • @Gruntfuttock100. I agree

  • @Gruntfuttock100

    I love this one too, but I have to mention Jimi Hendrix's "Voodoo chile"

    Actually the greatest I know is "Sacred world" by Blind Guardian, hope you like it.

  • phuckin awwwwsummm...... i wish i was blind tooooo!!

  • @ElChiNo11o11 trust me. no you do not. yes he made great music but he didnt think it was all because he was blind. nobody wants to be blind. nobody

  • REAL MUSICIAN AND ENTERTAINER

  • @InfestedJM @TheNobelwinner

    We've all heard each sides arguements & if you'd like to debate this further there are thousands of Richard Dawkins videos far better suited.

    Does anyone else hear Day Tripper in the riff?

  • From iPhone 4s commercial :)

  • dear God i need to thank you for the ONE and ONLY RAY CHARLES , because he made and still makes my life complete. AMEN

  • Who could dislike this????? Idiots

  • This planted a deep seed in Paul McCartney. See Lifetime Achievement Award - 1990. THIS SONG is what motivated Paul. I can hear the beattles in this.

  • Puff Puff, maybe he stole it from the Doors? lol

  • Nobelwinner shut up man. We're all glad you've been able to conceptualize someone who's seen everything you've ever done and you're all scared and worked up about it. But just shut up, he's no Ray Charles.

  • @allthatjawns yes I know He is not Ray Charles

    He is my God, your God and Ray Charles's God :)
