[@Meowzerz_00]

I listen to Mike everyday on the way to work so i can get mentally prepared for the day. Sometimes i cry, and sometimes i sing at the top of my lungs smiling.

343 people don't understand music or how difficult it is for a male to have such a wide vocal range, period. This man's skill is not easily matched by almost any musician alive at the moment. He isn't mainstream because his message doesn't fit into the mainstream narrative. His message is love and positivity, that's not the mainstream narrative; that would be sex, drugs, and money.

[@russelllukenbill]

Top comment!

[@audreydugan9668]

He is mainstream to those that have a heart

[@lazlolazar]

Okay, I’m just here to recognize the sound engineers for this recording. They did an absolutely professional job.

[@oldmanbeasley53]

As a retired player of 40 yrs, I'd like to say, NOW THATS TALENT! Thank you! As a player from the 60s and 70s I thought all the talent had disapeared, I hope some label has enough ear to hear this talent. May God bless and may millions hear and appreciate your voice, writing, and playing. Thanks

[@jammiebush9933]

thats awsome man be happy u deserve it

[@randywatchingbush]

I Pray Mike never $ign$ on the dotted line with any label and that He stays independent of their fuckery and free to do what his heart leads Him to at any time .. Record co. Contracts kill the Spontaneity and that kills' the music.. you were in it for 40 years so you likely already know this to be true.. cheers my friend.. we do agree on this talent

[@triple_gem_shining]

That's why you old folks are stuckup. Thinking there isn't music skill these days? Come on... 🤡 And it's not talent it's hard work... Gg

[@garnersgoats]

i don't know how I've managed to live 31 years without letting this man speak into my spirit.... just wow... this song is awesome... but my favorite is "permanent holiday" ... the way Mr. Love uses the loop petal is the same way that God speaks revelation into our lives... I've never seen anything like it.... this guy is surely deserves a crown... way better leadership than what we have today... thanks for just being you, brother!!!

I sobbed the first time I heard this. Recently Lost my father and when he hit those falsetto's with the echo on the vocal I couldn't hold it in man. Absolutely beautiful man!

[@Albanian_Accountant]

I cried as well. It hits something very deep Inside of us as humans

[@stevenrath4662]

Mike still does free shows on O'ahu. Went to one of them with only about 20 people there. Not gunna lie, I was fighting tears the whole time. Such a deeply personal beautiful song. Beautiful soul.

How can onyone not like this? It's absolute poetry. The way you can hear and FEEL the emotion in his music. This guy.. This guy

[@stephangerick]

02:48 this part is magical..like a door opening into a new world ! Just one word : AMAZING !!

[@piccolinosur]

+Stephan Gerick UNIVERSE BLOW

[@deathstarHQ]

have you heard permanent holiday, when he loops bits of words over and over and eventually builds to be the chorus, that really did blow me away, i thought the song was going a bit weird at first, which of course is the idea but when it comes together its amazing, what a talented guy and his lyrics are direct from his heart and soul.

[@JairSholo]

That's true! Don't exist another word for describe it

[@santicalderon509]

Stephan Gerick magical is the word

[@reluctantgaming9224]

Badass part

[@devinsmith2312]

GREAT SONG! As a vet, you brought me back from the toilet bowl swirl..... I'm not back yet, but thank you! I hope you keep pursuing music! you now know you at least reached one who is truly touched! THANK YOU!

[@adamf.4823]

I love the little flex at the end. He's clearly holding back his guitar skills for the sake of the songs. Absolute legend.

[@harply]

I totally agree Stephan ! The magical door of healing. Mike can not only heal with his hands but his vocal ability is beyond just singing. That's how it hit me, I feel an angel just touched down and filled the room with pure positive energy.

[@joshshuga3086]

My mind just gets blown. Mike's music has changed my life so much. Like I feel high when I hear some of his songs

[@Terrazona929]

Something happened to me when I heard this song- my eyes teared up and my heart opened. I Am Free. Mahalo beautiful soul. Thank you for sharing your gift with the world. 💗🙏🏻🦋

[@darkeyesshining]

Yes!!! I had the same reaction!!! I felt my spirit soar and I believe my heart chakra did a somersault! A very visceral reaction throughout my body and tears of joy flowing… What a true blessing of heart and soul to this world!! Thank you seems inadequate, but I offer it nonetheless!!

[@drizzyk6633]

He poured his soul into this one I’ve listened to it every day for the whole week it’s so beautiful. The lyrics, talent and emotion are so amazing.

[@seeyanlumb7550]

I don't know if i've ever had another song that literally knocked the wind out of me and brought tears to me eyes. Thank you Mike.

There is so much talent behind this. You guys deserved to be listened all over the world. Soul music right here.

I wasnt even expecting to watch this for a minute but ended up watching the whole thing. Jah Bless. Inspiring. What the world needs.

[@Jarle1510]

You know when you hear great music, and then you get tired of it because you heard it every day for a long time? Then u revisit it later and u have the same feeling as the first time you heard it ? Im back now, after several times. You need to take a break from your favorite bands so you can come back and actually see if it was your favorite band after all. Mike Love, i love your music.

[@genomalowany]

Mike Love, you are a beautiful designer of music with heart....all that I miss from growing up in the 60s and 70s (and protesting all the while). Thank you. Please continue and don’t let them manipulate you. Stay pure, Brother!!!!!

[@andrewgolembiewski3814]

Mike Love is flawless with his musical talent and the meaning behind it.

[@kenuking369]

Sorry Mike to all the unlikes you got these people don't know real and soulful music. Big Up brethren!

[@harlemsar]

Penniless Mike Love I’ve kept my mouth shut too long Begging for scraps down here at the bottom And though I know it might ruffle some feathers I just can’t hold my tongue no more Cause I’m sure that the weak and the poor got Something to say but they can’t pay so nobody listens And a man with a hell of a plan can’t do nothing with His hands while he’s stuck in the back washing dishes It don’t seem right that some work ‘til the day that they die And some never have to work a single day in their lives Won’t somebody tell me why I get paid half as much to work Twice as hard as all these yuppie jerks Just because I don’t wear a suit and a tie Am I out of my mind to wish that I was Penniless, so that I could rest All these money troubles give me stress Always wanting more and having less All these worries take my Life away, there goes another day Working minimum wage Trapped up inside this cage With one foot in the grave I think it would be best if we all were just more Penniless They say you’re penniless you’re broke but to me it’s a joke Cause the wealthiest ones, mentally, spiritually, are the unhealthiest ones Their trust funds ain’t gonna save them when the judgement comes, we’ll just watch ‘em run Cause the tidal wave’s comin’ and it’s gonna break And take away all ignorance, leave only truth in its wake Cause any system’s bound to fail that lets the treacherous prevail and puts the innocent in jail, watches them burn at the stake But I and I know that there will come a day When the breeze will blow, and take this all away And in time everything will be okay If we can just find a way to stay Oh what we hold within our hearts Will always be, will never part And what we hold within our hands Will quickly turn to smoke and sand So let it go Cause the rain will fall and wash away And sun will shine another day, another life, another way, another chance to run and play And all these things that you hold dear, they will soon all disappear So let it go, let go Cause what we hold within our hands Will quickly turn to smoke and sand So let it go, let it fade, let it slide and slip away And may your soul be at rest Rich in love and rich in joy and rich in truth and truly blessed truly Penniless

[@MS-ib8xu]

If Mike Love ever comes to your city, or near you, go see him live in concert! It's funny how we don't talk about profits today anymore, but anyone can see that he is a profit. During his last concert he talked about that once he put his ego aside, the music just came to him from an external source. Imagine if all of us could put our egos aside and see what amazing things would come through us!

[@morganpan7510]

Im in the UK but would travel to the other side of the planet to see him live!
