[babzrobinson]

enjoying a hot mug of Lapsang Souchong and listening to this song. great combination!

[Tomored1992]

whats irish tea?



[babzrobinson]

@Tomored1992 a blend of tea commonly drank in ireland consisting of a blend of several black teas but mostly Assam. Its fairly strong and usually served with milk. :)

[ryan47ism]

scrubs <3

[Therealslimshady55]

65 people dont know what real music is!

[vLoxTerror]

2:32 I like sleeping with marines?!

[angelairwave88]

@vLoxTerror With MARIE

[flyforce16]

@vLoxTerror Marie.

[Larrypint]

where is that memorial at 1:47?

[fabiopanii]

amazing clip!

[hendrix0is0lord]

who cares about scrubs...Thumbs up for Australian Music!

[TheKalel15]

thumbs up for scrubs <3

[worlzy]

Colin says that every time he sings this it reminds him of his sound guy in L.A. who was lying in the sea singing this song and a shark bites his ankle, so, this guy starts swimming back to shore while singing this because he wanted nothing to change, he was in shock, the shark just swam beside all the way back to shore. Colin likes to think it's because Beautiful World is a fuckin' good song.

[pickledcockles]

Never could tell if this song was completely straight faced. Good either way.

[pickledcockles]

Lap sang suchong yeah!

[Joooooooooshhyyy]

the description really clears things up for me.

[mrspattinson2008]

Scrubs ? <3

[mz9393mz]

...or a woman if you are one...

makes me smile every time -- what a great guy this Colin Hay

[joelk672k8]

my my my what a beautiful song

[33hegemon]

My my my, what a beautiful world,

I love Modern Warfare 3.

I like sniping from across the map,

where the noobz cannot see me,

and they fall down from the headshots,

I love Modern Warfare 3.

[Lostprophetzzz]

@33hegemon just bugger off....

[33hegemon]

@Lostprophetzzz

Nice comment. Doesn't exactly fit the spirit of the song, however. Perhaps you missed the point of it, although that would be quite an accomplishment given how simple it is.

[Lostprophetzzz]

@33hegemon

i got the point of it.

but no. it was completely irrelevant

it's bad enough that MW3 and BF3 are plastered everywhere else...

but this video has NOTHING

AT

ALL to do with MW3...

your comment was just SPAM...

and irritating Spam,

[33hegemon]

@Lostprophetzzz

This song is about enjoying life. I enjoy playing MW3, as you already are aware. Therefore, my comment was relevant. You should write your own personal verse, about your enjoyment of trolling.

[Lostprophetzzz]

@33hegemon that is the WEAKEST argument ever...

go back to annoying your fellow CHILDREN on cod...

just because you enjoy something doesn't mean you should spam annoying shit about that on something else....

whatever your retarded perspective is... it's spam...

[33hegemon]

@Lostprophetzzz

I'm not going to waste any more time trying to educate you on the idiocy of your comments. That would require years and years of painstaking effort. I did, however, find your anger quite amusing, but such amusement was as shortlived as your apparent attention span. See ya!

[Consolized]

@33hegemon Fuck you, I like killing mothafuckers who play COD, and BF for that matter. Kill all you guys!

[QrazyDanne]

the worst lyrics i have ever heard, me and my friend laughed our asses of thoe, thanks to a comedian mentioning this song on his standup!

[rethink11]

@QrazyDanne Let's hear some wonderful lyrics to YOUR songs. What? Got none? Just what I thought. Colin is awesome, so fuck you and your 'comedian' who 'mentioned this song.' He's probably just pissed his name isn't known across the world like Colin's was since the 80's. My my my it's a wonderful world (except for douche's like you trying to insult Colin Hay). This song is good. Fuck off.

[QrazyDanne]

@rethink11 If you are looking for what i think is good lyrics, then go check out the National.. you will propably see what i'm trying to state. If not, sorry to have offended you!

[InFlam3sW3Trust]

@QrazyDanne There is beauty in simplicity. If somebody has the ability to invoke strong emotions within people while using relatively simple lyricism, I'd say that there's no reason to insult the song.

[tattoofthesun]

these are the dumbest lyrics, for the simpleheads

and thats just okay i guess

[PsychadelicBeatle]

@tattoofthesun Dude. Unnecessary hate comment is unnecessary. Stop.

[rethink11]

@tattoofthesun well...noticed you 'liked' a john mayer clip. Funny you judging these lyrics as 'dumb,' yet like the guy who sings lyrics like, "your body is a wonderland." Douche.

[PuresG1ft]

@rethink11 umadbro

[Consolized]

Scrubs brought me here.

[tomwolstencroft]

i like swimming in the sea ...

[darcyfrod]

I love the fact that colin focuses on the Little Things, Which are beautiful, the things we take for granted

[KeaneUndertheIronSea]

my my my it's a beautiful world.

[KeaneUndertheIronSea]

my my my it's a beautiful world.

[Lieu3C4]

I meditated on & off for some 18 months, a year and a half, at the age of 33-4, on the proposition that John Howard was right, that this is as good as it gets, that one should secularize, pragmatize, sympathize in a limited degree, not too extensively, and came to the conclusion that was a load of old rot, as anyone still a teenager will not have forgot, and as anyone dead will not retain in their head.

[nghzlgzinga]

If people would stop fighting, and stop to kill and rob, stop hurting other people, the world would be so much beatuifuler. Dont hate, or be rude, dont bully other people. I hope that the world changes, and people could live in peace.

[954smithy954]

I like cock and balls

[aspectsdecor]

another treasure to come out of scotland just like robert burns my for a small nation we are good

[Aarrmehearties]

@aspectsdecor Good Scots steel forged in the fires of Australia

[mysterymcleft]

0:40 i've been there, it's the rock of cashel, right ? ^^

but nevermind, this song is AWESOME !!!

[the555music]

Beautiful stuff

[SeriousKickers]

Great Song ;)

[Andyp12]

0:22 "or a woman if you are one" I have to admit that was a funny line.

[StefanR10]

The snowflakes are great for that song

[SiriBlack1]

my crush posted this and it breaks my heart how this song just sounds like him and how he's so out of reach ...

[StefanR10]

The world is really beautiful, with so much difference in everything and Colin Hay sing exactly about that.

[mrjzxv]

this sucks lady gaga sounds way better

[BigCheese2403]

@mrjzxv is that sarcasm?

[pwgabachito]

@BigCheese2403 God, I hope so.

[LawrenceGordon92]

@mrjzxv Lady GaGa kicks ass but Colin Hay is a completely different genre and style. You can't compare them.

[TheMusicTard]

Never really noticed how great Colin Hay was as a singer until i heard this song.

[b0ban]

beautiful beautiful song

[abeecity]

This song always reminds me of my girlf, i imagine shes marie x.

[swordfisch1990]

just amazing.....



[LectricSheepz]

scrubs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! miss ya....

[MrGeoooooorge]

Thanks for the informative information about the song in the description box, really gave me a lot of insight...

[swordfisch1990]

@MrGeoooooorge yes... it is a song you know that xD

[Sinjaa4]

[FantaysyPictures]

The guitar is amazing! Colin Hay 

[InvisibleVoices16]

[Evelinruiz]

Colin hay to back Chile , Colin hay te queremos ver pronto en Chile

[33hegemon]

Excellent, sensational song! Really makes you think about, and value, the small 'unimportant' things in this life. I like eating toast and drinking tea on my balcony, watching people walk to work in the morning.

[brucegoff68]

ROXANA, do you really love this song? mmmm i just love you!

[harterhans69ify]

pretty awesome description 

[TheMessiersAndromeda]

53 have a slightly different taste in music and I respect that.

[MikeCAE1]

@TheMessiersAndromeda I Dont Give Thumbs up, but u deserve it So... u got mine

[Talyn10126822]

@TheMessiersAndromeda why watch the video then? what is the purpose of disliking something? if they dislike it, WHY LISTEN TO IT!?

[TheMessiersAndromeda]

@Talyn10126822

Because they found it and listened to it and disliked it. No shit. 

[austinjackso1]

@Talyn10126822 To troll

[EenGroteNeuspulk]

@TheMessiersAndromeda Those are the only true words on the whole comment page :)

[lucidrealm1]

[TheMessiersAndromeda]

@DJK9288

Excellent. I don't care.

[grayleg414]

@TheMessiersAndromeda youtube needs more top comments like yours, and less ''who hates justin bieber'' kind of stuff. u got my respect my friend.

[yaisum]

@TheMessiersAndromeda That is both Funny and excellent. Finally someone points out the "dislike" figures and doesn't reference Justin Bieber! Well done, the young chap needs a break for now. Hi 5

[TravelnJuggle]

@TheMessiersAndromeda Best comment i've ever seen on the top of the comments with most of the thumps up! Nice ;)

[stugulups]

[TheTubbzie]

[jcpelly]

Men at Work hooked me in on Mr. Colin :)

[zanezabar]

[SkecOFFICIAL]

[0905joey]

i wanna know who the fuck the 54 people who dislike this song and vidieo are... because they are fucking morons... just my opinion...

[Luneiro]

@0905joey for 53 people is not enough that Marie likes their company.

[micxen]

Love him and Men At Work!

[123hero321]

How the fuck can you be so bitter over a song as epic as this gents. Sort it out. It's a beautiful world.

[MultiMirj]

Best music ever to smoke

[blackcath20]

wonderful. this song makes me happy.

[commodore665]

great song

[Emilio3207]

Just starting to listen to him...great song!

[fire17102]

@Kaleopolitus Totaly lol... :P

[CALLOFDUTYisBAD01]

god doesn't exist fuck all you fairy tale believers who believe in him you stupid fuckin creationist pigs

[horndog605]

@CALLOFDUTYisBAD01 nobody cares what YOU think so keep it to yourself!!

[Kaleopolitus]

@CALLOFDUTYisBAD01 As an atheïst I can honestly say that I would not mind to find out in the news that your head had been clubbed in by a mob of religious folk.

[CALLOFDUTYisBAD01]

@Kaleopolitus religious folk? ha don't make me laugh, i shit on them bitches motherfucker

[dasding110]

@CALLOFDUTYisBAD01 Oh my... your name pretty much explains it but... you should atleast try to grow up and stop spreading your painfully dumb hate.

[admlautnn]

@CALLOFDUTYisBAD01 May all your hate, anger, confusion, loneliness, fears be absorbed into the empty nature of my mind. And may you have all of my joy, happiness, simplistic beauty, and inner peace B)

[CALLOFDUTYisBAD01]

@admlautnn May all your friends, family, and lovedo nes be absorbed into the empty nature of my mind, and may you have all of my hate, famine, fear, and pestilence B)

[admlautnn]

@CALLOFDUTYisBAD01 haha fair enough

[mentalmetal1]

@CALLOFDUTYisBAD01 and can you see how the disbelief in god in your life has made you pretty ugly?

[CALLOFDUTYisBAD01]

@mentalmetal1 lol you sound like a fucking puff

[mentalmetal1]

@CALLOFDUTYisBAD01 just the way ya' mama likes it.

[CALLOFDUTYisBAD01]

@mentalmetal1 lol at least I got a real mum, i'd rather have aids than have a step mum who gets my name wrong half the time, who dont love me. LMFAO go kill yo self cos if you diss me you diss yourself motherfucker

[JammusMDH]

@CALLOFDUTYisBAD01 You give a bad name to us Atheist's, we're meant to be free from intolerance and that even means tolerating those who are intolerant. Why should it matter what they believe, what is the point of your post you think some Religious guy is gonna stumble across it and rethink his most intimate of beliefs.

Yeah once again you're giving us a bad name, we're already the most despised and hated group on the planet bar a few extremist's and people like you are only making it worse.

[CALLOFDUTYisBAD01]

@JammusMDH why should it matter?! because practically all wars which have ever occured are because of religious conflict. Thats why.

[JammusMDH]

@CALLOFDUTYisBAD01 How innocent, are you like 12 and just read The God Delusion? To say all wars are started by religion is like saying Hitler killed 6 million Jews because he was an Atheist(even though he wasn't imo, blatantly Catholic). There is always other ingredients to a war, the greed of corrupted politicians and world leaders, human rights are being violated. Even if every one was Atheist from the beginning of time we would have found some thing to wage war with others over, no doubt.

[CALLOFDUTYisBAD01]

@JammusMDH Get you're facts right son, you're only thinking of recent wars lad.

[JammusMDH]

@CALLOFDUTYisBAD01 I'm just going to stick with my last point as you clearly misunderstood my point, if there was NO Religion since the beginning of mankind, then we would still find some thing to kill each other over.

[CALLOFDUTYisBAD01]

@JammusMDH One less reason though, which is a start.

[Phleege]

@CALLOFDUTYisBAD01 you have to start some where :) :)

[SuperBMan3000]

@CALLOFDUTYisBAD01 could you name maybe ten wars started due to religion?

[CALLOFDUTYisBAD01]

@SuperBMan3000 No, but that doesn't mean that there isn't 10 wars started by religion.

[IOJordanOI]

@SuperBMan3000 How about nearly every war started because of peoples differences ( religion being one of the most common ones ) you fucking trout sniffer. How can you be so oblivious to the world and its history you sorry excuse for a human being. Come here and lick the shit off my shoe.

[emjyates]

@SuperBMan3000

The First Crusade, The Second Crusade, The Third Crusade, The Taiping Rebellion, The Thirty Years War,

The Scottish Reformation and Civil Wars, The English Reformation and Civil War, The Irish Confederate Wars and the Cromwellian conquest of Ireland, the German Peasants' War (1524–1525), the Eighty Years' War (1568–1648), the French Wars of Religion (1562–1598)

The list keeps going.

[mroutdoorsy]

for you babe

[TheMcBrawl]

Colin Hay NNIIIIIIIICCCCCCEEEEEEE and i jusz know him from scrubs 

[Joontish93]

@TheMcBrawl He was the singer for Men at Work! :D

[MrSuicidesilence91]

[mrsuperhero97]

SCRUBS!

[longfootbuddy]

government rules us by the gun

[bazi40bazi]

i loved scrubs is got me hooked too. i was depressed listening to the songs for three weeks but they so good.

[mateo200828]

Scrubs hooked me in on Mr. Colin :)

[Havranek77]

@mateo200828 you are not the only one, it is really good song.

[nowaynohow26]

I love this guys voice. A lot of great memories when he was with Men At Work.

[rdaniell76]

If it was not for Scrubs I never would have heard Mr Hay's wonderful music

[MrMarkboo]

i like your sentiments orangensaft528, we should be entitled to find  happiness, but for me at the moment it is hard to find, after losing some one dear

to me.im optimistic that i will soon.

[ORANGENSAFT528]

He is pretty right on a lot of things in this song. The world is beautiful. For me, being a Christian helps me to see that even more. We're perfectly entitled to find happiness, using any means which are morally right. So for those of you who aren't Christians I don't hate you, or want to argue like a lot of others seem to on here, I want to say that I'm happy you've also found a way to also see the beauty of this world.

[Tomoose21]

Safe god,

hows it going,

hows the cheese

no cheese 0,0

= god is pissed....good job cheese aint real

[TheIreneaustin]

I love the way you put that Irish tea :)

[UCANCALLMESUNNY]

Truly. The world is beautiful.

[jonii227]

dite is nen jutes lied ja oder? ike finde dit is eins der besten lieder ik hör dit tog und nocht dürch un dürch schön toch noch

[MrLKay]

@jonii227 coole sprache! komisch aber ich versteh fast jedes wort. das is wie ein mix aus platt-deutsch (aus dem norden glaub ich) und english. voll cool

[jonii227]

@MrLKay

wat is mit dir?

machnwa nen päuschen!?

keener geht nach hose

[wildvenisson]

This is the song i use if i need to cry on stage or when I'm being filmed. Irony of how beautiful this song is, is that I'll never be able to perform it from the lump in my throat.

[LordRockfish]

Beautiful World cause Colin Hay is in it!

[FCOrebirth]

the song has happy parts but has an underlying sad tone to it

"yeh this is as good as it get" but all things are open to alternative interpretations so its up to individuals to decide its meaning. It doesn't have a set meaning its meant to have a personal meaning to everyone

[lamelesstony123]

dis is a long song:)

[gr8tsilby]

I was falling asleep while playing another song where I didn't notice it was on a playlist, when I suddenly wake up with this song on... It's an amazing feeling to wake up to such a beautiful song :)

[iRobii]

@gr8tsilby Sounds awesome :D

[LenaFarAwayFromHome]

such an amazing song! <3

[TheCurto2112]

nice song



[Baelfire1]

Epic in every sense. Great song and a great artist :D.
