Who cares which religion you follow or which god you worship? This is music, and music is meant to bring people together (much unlike religion and politics), so keep your hate to yourself or to those who can endure it. It's all about music here :)
One of the best songs I've ever heard, it's so powerful! I love listening to it from the 46664 cd I always have with me in my car, really loud -and it always makes me cry, no matter how many times I've heard it. Thanks for adding it here.
don't mean to hate, but i think he was a better artist as a hippy than a muslim... i mean did he really have to take out the word "girl" from the song?
@moham7ad yes, he had to do that -because of the purpose of the concert, it's for AIDS vistims in Africa, mostly children, so he's trying to make a different point this time. It's not because he's Muslim now. It's a "combination of something old and something new" -as he says in the beginning of the song.
I saw Cat Stevens/Yusuf t the Albert Hall in 2009 - not only is he a brilliant musician (still), but he came across as a very genuine man. He has struggled with his genius I believe, but hopefully realises now how much joy he brings and how much good he has done.
@hunkeydorey2, please can you kindly remove all the hate comments, I am a muslim and I love this duo and this is really offending what they are saying. especially emmy6423. Thank you
I hate to see how so many people criticise him for "turning" Muslim. How many of us can sincerely say we chose the path we are walking, we made a change n our life -trying to be a better human being? It doesn't matter what path it is, what matetrs is that it takes a lot of courage, devotion and big heart. Whatever he does -he always tries to be conscious about it, and make his statements very clear, take a stand. Religion doesn't matter but what we do with our life does.
@emmy6423 ive barred you from seeing any of my videos and from leaving comments on any of my uploads or my channel, your disgusting and very ignorant, there isnt any need for that type of hatred, its people with the attitude, that you clearly have that enables the hatred to continue.
Its amazing how people like @emmy6423 hate some1 just for being a Muslim. And d sad thing is, Yusuf said nothing about Islam in this video, and yet, u insult him. I feel very sorry for you girl,honestly. I bet you don't know anything about Islam besides what you see on CNN and CBS and that's really pathetic. Don't judge us if you don't know us. Listen to a real Muslim's side of whatever story is bothering u.
Amazing, Wonderful version of that masterpiece...
Thanks so much for uploading. ;))

Yusuf is such a beautiful person. I for one am so happy he is playing music again. I only wish I could see him play live once in my life.

@hopdoehop Hatred is always wrong. No matter for what reason. Now shut up. Yusuf Islam is a humanitarian beyond reproach.
We're glad to have him back.
