To compare the plight of the Native American people to the petty tribal squabbling between Israel and lebanon is completely ludicrous. The Native American people were subject to the attempted genocide of of a theo political ideology called capitalism, the squabbles in the middle east trace their roots back thousands of years in a perpetual girl fight where none are innocent and someone's mother is insulted because someone else sneezed.
@Urvakhsha I agree, however, the reality of the native American people was as normal to them as your petty life is to you. In reality, the romantic notion of Americans differs so greatly from their reality that it takes trillions of dollars in marketing and politics to cover it up, whereas the native people were so close to that which was later depicted in the last 25 years that most people will admit that Custer got what he deserved and idiots like you will eventually too.
The Real Spirts of the Earth will never be forgotten. They are a will always be the True and Real Americans. I bow to the earth for more then this but for all the tribes that have ever exsisted.
Racism is fabricated don't fall for it. The correct name for the original Indigenous civilization is Nican Tlaca, Indigenous tribes called this continent Anahuac the europeans changed the name to america. Many ignorant people say who cares they're all gone or who cares we won the war. Injustice to one people is an attack to all humanity. If we say its Ok 500 years ago then it will happen again and guess what? your people could be next !
@Rochdale8 Fortunately for you, you CAN hear all the great music from that era without being a 47-year-old. Back then you didn't have all of the digital advantages you are afforded now, so be glad. You have a lot of miles to cover yet. The 60's & 70's gave us a lot of great music, and the best have stood the test of time, although some have been played into the dirt.
@conradiche Hello, olde chap. Are those miners okay? I've heard that the Yanks in Hollywood are going to make a movie about them. And well right, too!!!
Borgduck I like your comment about the native Indians. Maaan if I could I would've travelled back in time so I could live with these people. And I love crossbows!!!
when i coming to this country i try to find my heritage,my great great father he was an native,cherokee, i read about the history of the usa,every day in the library and the internet,but when i was in the reservation,i feel like all my life i was there..is something weird.....because i born in mexico and was the first time in this place,this song is beautiful
i have a husquervana chainsaw i cut fallen trees for heat,i eat game for food,earth provides,but some folk like oil baron al gore suggests we pay tax on carbon,which makes trees grow n life impossible on earth.
This is absolutely beautiful. My spirit guide is a Indian (maybe chief) called peacemaker. We are here for only a short time .and that time is all recorded. And we will ALL answer for the good and bad we do. I love the spirit of the Indians and their ways and knowledge. We could al learn a lot from them. They believe the earth will come back to them. She will be torn and tattered but in time they will heal her. May God forgive us for ruining the earth.
That's what you call living green! I never understood why they said Columbus discovered America when there were millions of people already living here and thriving.
if you like the native american message,,, aswell as great tunesmanship,,,, you really outta check out J.D. Blackfoot's, The Song of Crazy Horse, bless all of you crazy rockers, Stay Happy!
Your analogy with the Israel/Lebanon war is very apt. Israel treats the Arabs just the way the white man has treated native Americans. It's called GENOCIDE.
this is my first time hearing this song and you have made an awesome video to this song. Thanks so much for your post. Kansas is a truly talented bunch of musicians & singers. I don't know how much of their music is written by them but, Kansas FTW

European Man cheats Native-American Man by lying-covenant-gun-bayonet-howitzer, demonizing one facet of mankind to self-justify; some tribes had written ethical constitutions B4 European Man resolved his. Then European Man thinks himself noble; but who is the savage? The one who breaks covenant made in good faith for sake of earthly gain. Without such explicit words your video made each point; quite artistically at that. Well done native son. GdBls

The irony of this concert setting & this beautiful tribute song moved several of the natives in the crowd to tears. WE ARE STILL HERE.

Hey Dalefan38, Thanks for keeping this song within its original context! It was always meant as a tribute to the many great native American nations that were exterminated by this country's democratic system. As well, I cannot think of any other band to pay this tribute other than Kansas. I have enjoyed them since 1973 and Cheyenne Anthem to this day stills brings it out from within me! Thanks Again!
Great video.thanks for showing respect to the native american.Not seen very much these days.Instead of showing respect to the original americans and learning from them, our heros are rappers,oprah,and ellen.
@fretfirestarter Well you are making alot of sense, very true. This band is one of the best in the land, and they created a wonderful tribute to our native americans...but please, lay off Oprah and Ellen.
@fretfirestarter We could have learned soo much more from them. They had a code of honor that we didn't understand until far too late. I hope the people we save what can be saved so that we may yet learn.
hey my man!! you did one hell of a job with this vid - i can tell how much work is involved, apart from dedication and ideas - and of course this song!!!
broke out leftoverature the other day and what can you say, they are outstanding musicians.. i will remember them in the 70's and 80's as the best of times..
wow, incredible footage and video, and amazing music. Great tribute. And the music... I had Kansas albums in the 70's and am so happy they are still around. They are so talented.
Let's look at it for what it is. A fantastic song that tells a story and the video with it follows closely with the song. Well done all the way around. No political or religious intentions, just good music done with good graphics period.
My God, I had to revisit this video after your reply to my comment and I've decided of all the videos I've watched this one speaks to my heart the most. It is simply brilliant, beautiful, haunting and true. I love it, thank you so very much! PS, incredible song!
I hope this message reaches you in a state of peace.
I wish to invite you to the House of Islam in peace. There are five pillars:
1: Testify that there is NO god worthy of worship except Allah, who is the creator who created all that begun to exist, and that Muhammad is His prophet and servant.
Pillar 2: Worship Allah 5 times a day.
3: Distribute 2.5% of our excess wealth to the poor
4: Fast during the month of Ramadhan to practice self decipline
#1 implies that YOU recognize that OTHER GODS exist.... This video has aABOSULETLY NOTHING TO DO with Islam
The Native God in this country was" Awonawilona" as I recall I believe you'll find the Somgwriter here believes in Jesus christ, and respects the Natives as I do as some are my relatives.
Friend I believe there is only ONE Creator, who created all that begun to exist; space, time, matter, forces etc. In the Arabic language God is known as Allah and in the Native American God is known as 'Awonawilona' (wht does is mean?)
We read in the Glorious Quran, that messengers n prophets of God came too all mankind, in all communitiues and tribes.
I knw the video is nothing 2do wth Islam, but I jst wnted 2share my faith with everyone in your community, because we hav nothin 2 hide.
I know that Islam holds a level of respect for the prophet Jesus, but that it considers him nothing more than a mere man. Christianity believes him to be very God in the flesh. So which is it? Both CANNOT be right. Islam teaches a works-righteousness where salvation depends, at least in part, on man. Christianity teaches salvation by grace alone thru faith alone in Jesus Christ alone. Good works R then a RESULT of salvation and not a means 2 it. A salvation left up to man is doomed 2 failure.
"How can than man be justified with God? How can he be clean, whos born of a woman? When even the Moon is not bright and all the stars in the sky are impure in His sight! How much less is than the man who is but a MAGGOT and the Son of Man who is but a worm?"
Book of Job chapter 25 verses 4 6.
If Jesus is God how can the Holiest of Holy make Mary impure for 40 days? If we say Jesus is the Son and God is the Father, than Mary is the Wife of God? If not why not?
I hope this message reaches you in a state of peace.

Ignorance killed the "first americans" which is a stupid but almost accurate name for the people. The were not NATIVE, they just got here first. It is a disgrace what happened but it can not be undone. They can only be remembered with dignity,

...And that is what the American flag now has in common with just about every other flag of all other nations that are recognized by the UN. We as a nation have been asked and flat out begged by most other nations to get dirty...and to help clean up the messes caused by other European continent nations....
Steve Walsh has the voice. Good tribute to the first Americans. However, all the peoples of the planet have warred with each other, committed genocide for whatever reasons. This is the real and sad reality of human beings. Capable of so much beauty, love, ingenuity, art & music but just as capable of hatred, cruelty, malice and war towards each other.
White StarWoman,most White people are to ignorant to understand what you mean by "Counting Coup".Much love to you mi amor,First Nations,500 strong before the invasion.
you need to expand more on your stupid comment that it was real genocide, yes we had war but like i said before we didn't kill 120 millions indians like the europeans did. what the europeans did was genocide
i am trying to get across to people who comment on things like "get over what the whites did to you, and besides didn't you indians fight and kill each other all the time" i answered yes we did have our wars but we didn't commit genocide
Una de sus mejores canciones. Me transporta a los 20 años, una playa de Cadiz, un anochecer, unos buenos amigos, una hoguera eterna, unos tragos placenteros,el ruido de las olas, la piel desnuda de una mujer, el olor a salitre, a sardina "asá",y....... toda una vida por delante.

@fretfirestarter Well you are making alot of sense, very true. This band is one of the best in the land, and they created a wonderful tribute to our native americans...but please, lay off Oprah and Ellen.

@fretfirestarter We could have learned soo much more from them. They had a code of honor that we didn't understand until far too late. I hope the people we save what can be saved so that we may yet learn.

Let's look at it for what it is. A fantastic song that tells a story and the video with it follows closely with the song. Well done all the way around. No political or religious intentions, just good music done with good graphics period.

My God, I had to revisit this video after your reply to my comment and I've decided of all the videos I've watched this one speaks to my heart the most. It is simply brilliant, beautiful, haunting and true. I love it, thank you so very much! PS, incredible song!

I wish to invite you to the House of Islam in peace. There are five pillars:
1: Testify that there is NO god worthy of worship except Allah, who is the creator who created all that begun to exist, and that Muhammad is His prophet and servant.
Pillar 2: Worship Allah 5 times a day.
3: Distribute 2.5% of our excess wealth to the poor
4: Fast during the month of Ramadhan to practice self decipline
5: Perform Hajj in Mecca

#1 implies that YOU recognize that OTHER GODS exist.... This video has aABOSULETLY NOTHING TO DO with Islam
The Native God in this country was" Awonawilona" as I recall I believe you'll find the Somgwriter here believes in Jesus christ, and respects the Natives as I do as some are my relatives.
Formulabruce 2 years ago
Friend I believe there is only ONE Creator, who created all that begun to exist; space, time, matter, forces etc. In the Arabic language God is known as Allah and in the Native American God is known as 'Awonawilona' (wht does is mean?)
We read in the Glorious Quran, that messengers n prophets of God came too all mankind, in all communitiues and tribes.
I knw the video is nothing 2do wth Islam, but I jst wnted 2share my faith with everyone in your community, because we hav nothin 2 hide.
PEACE

I know that Islam holds a level of respect for the prophet Jesus, but that it considers him nothing more than a mere man. Christianity believes him to be very God in the flesh. So which is it? Both CANNOT be right. Islam teaches a works-righteousness where salvation depends, at least in part, on man. Christianity teaches salvation by grace alone thru faith alone in Jesus Christ alone. Good works R then a RESULT of salvation and not a means 2 it. A salvation left up to man is doomed 2 failure.

"How can than man be justified with God? How can he be clean, whos born of a woman? When even the Moon is not bright and all the stars in the sky are impure in His sight! How much less is than the man who is but a MAGGOT and the Son of Man who is but a worm?"
Book of Job chapter 25 verses 4 6.
If Jesus is God how can the Holiest of Holy make Mary impure for 40 days? If we say Jesus is the Son and God is the Father, than Mary is the Wife of God? If not why not?
Peace my American Friends

Ignorance killed the "first americans" which is a stupid but almost accurate name for the people. The were not NATIVE, they just got here first. It is a disgrace what happened but it can not be undone. They can only be remembered with dignity,

...And that is what the American flag now has in common with just about every other flag of all other nations that are recognized by the UN. We as a nation have been asked and flat out begged by most other nations to get dirty...and to help clean up the messes caused by other European continent nations....

Steve Walsh has the voice. Good tribute to the first Americans. However, all the peoples of the planet have warred with each other, committed genocide for whatever reasons. This is the real and sad reality of human beings. Capable of so much beauty, love, ingenuity, art & music but just as capable of hatred, cruelty, malice and war towards each other.

you need to expand more on your stupid comment that it was real genocide, yes we had war but like i said before we didn't kill 120 millions indians like the europeans did. what the europeans did was genocide

i am trying to get across to people who comment on things like "get over what the whites did to you, and besides didn't you indians fight and kill each other all the time" i answered yes we did have our wars but we didn't commit genocide

Una de sus mejores canciones. Me transporta a los 20 años, una playa de Cadiz, un anochecer, unos buenos amigos, una hoguera eterna, unos tragos placenteros,el ruido de las olas, la piel desnuda de una mujer, el olor a salitre, a sardina "asá",y....... toda una vida por delante.
