“No one is born hating another person because of the colour of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.” Nelson Mandela

@Notof Dhisworld So what made you assume that whoever you were addressing is not a vegan? I admit, that is an assumption on my part, but based on the statement you made about "killing and burning an innocent animal."

[@michaelanderson6531]

This is the version of Love Train that we didn't even know we needed. It takes an already brilliant song and makes it even more joyous. If you can watch this video and not feel just a bit better about life and humanity, than you are a rare person indeed. Brilliant to focus it on children.

February 2023 -- and the World needs this song -- and the Positive Energy from it more than ever!! I wish we could send this to "All the people in Russia and China" (because I don't believe the people in those countries want this ugly war of death and destruction that their leadership is causing) To me, this song in the original and every version represents the Goodness of Americans!!! Who came from all over the world, many without their consent and They embrace the American Dream to make the world a better place! Thanks so much to Keb Mo', such a humble soul, and all the others who participated in this version!

How to find words to describe what I feel just now ? If music can prove only one thing this surely would be : notes can gather all the world. Melodies take your soul through countries where no frontiers exist except on maps, people of the world are so beautiful in this video. So beautiful to be them, naturally, with their own music, their own culture, their own hearts. Thanks to Playing for change to create so much gathering all around the planet. If these things could make some people think and react to build a better world... Thanks a lot to the crew (sound and shooting) and to musicians/singers who were involved in this holy project. Wakan tanka bless you all.

[@yannickomani7382]

I'd never "dislike" a PFC video ... but this one gets away from their core of showing musicians joining together to (actually) play/sing GREAT covers of iconic songs. This one was more of a celebrity video. I just hope they don't do these instead of their original format (e.g. "The Weight", "La Bamba", etc.).

[@jeannie1renee2]

@@yannickomani7382 I think that's because it's a video specifically promoting Turnaround Arts, which is a program for schools, supported by Playing For Change, and no doubt supported by the professional artists in the video. Although, many of PFC's videos feature some professional musicians.

[@chriscooper7642]

I don't know what makes me happier: seeing so many artists whose work I know and love supporting and taking part in this (including my girl Alfre Woodard back home in New Orleans!), or seeing so many young people clearly all the way into it and singing, dancing and leaping with the kind of joy only kids know. Thank you, PFC and Turnaround Arts, for sharing this, and thank you to all the people who helped make it happen, both behind and in front of the camera.

More needs to be credited to The O'Jays. It was their message that was so powerful that it still resonates to this day. Even making it possible for Turnaround's marvelous success all these decades later. The O'Jays are without a doubt one of America's most important piece of Americana itself. They broke through the nonsense and talked the language of love only the devil could not understand.
