Yusuf / Cat Stevens - National Remembrance Service for Christchurch (Live, 2019)

[@britturk123]

New Zealand taught the world a lesson during this terrible time, that love and peace keep nations more together than anything else.

@Javion Cohen thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later with my results.

Universe, planet, earth, forestation, animals, beings. Everything is a great "machine" all and everything is gears. Take care, understand and do not break or force. If not, the machine breaks down and finally breaks. More and more parts are removed and more Ballast is loaded. Up downhill without brakes or direction. Let's open minds. Health and well-being for all

[@Ponchiegomezsaso]

A very moving performance , Yusuf's message could be felt by us all. Peace Train gave us hope and also bought us to tears here in the USA. Thank you Yusuf

I am incredibly moved, Yusuf. God bless and protect us all.

[@maraalvarez7695]

YOU ARE SUCH A GIFT.....ALWAYS WERE AND ALWAYS WILL BE. YOU SOUNDED BEYOND BEAUTIFUL. WHAT A MEMORABLE TRIBUTE. THANK YOU!!

[@evangelineflorendo3312]

Cat Stevens is the bringer of hope and inspiration . He is such a calm and peaceful soul.

[@claudiacerbe5903]

Peace ✌️ and love 💓 is the most important thing we need now on Earth 🌎

[@deborahwilliams955]

A true man of integrity and talent. We need more of this today.

[@DanFrechette]

He's blessed with perfect timing on guitar. People don't realize it. Him and Donovan - amazing rhythm guitarists.

[@mattbod]

Indeed Yusef Islam is a very underrated guitarist: excellent in both fingerstyle and rhythm playing. I play too and note how he used his pinkie of right hand as a support and anchor like lutenists do. I play classical guitar and when I started I did that but my teacher told me not to but it is a hard habit to break!

[@esado5295]

His whole life was a wonderful story ! Selam from Bosnia and thank you for your performance in a Bosnia after the war. May God be pleased with you !

God Bless you and keep safe from Covid-19 it's evil they say. Stay Gold my friend.🥀✌🥀☝️

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم My daughter was very sick on this day And I asked all the people to pray for her She was so sad and scared of what has happened in NZ and she was admitted to the hospital But I was just praying and asked in my heart to the world to pray for her to feel good And YES after 2 weeks she was out of the hospital And today I see this WOW ❤❤❤❤❤❤ 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻

@mags french i think people are evil, for example you judging religions, but the terrorist was a white supremacist (race not religion), please go and school yourself before you make foolish comments. if im wrong give me proofs that you have studied all religions to substain your claim

[@jwon5614]

It's amazing how this song has become so timeless and relevant✌🏿😂😊😚

[@zimmermann8809]

The world so much needs more people like Yusuf Islam/ Cat Stevens who is living to unite people in this media-propelled divided world. This is a voice of peace and love to humankind. God bless!

[@jx14aby]

He truly is a voice of sanity in an insane world.

[@brucecarpenter8640]

The message of all Ysufs comes through to me matter how many times I listen to them. Music for all generations.

[@thaitravels5871]

I know this meant so much to the families...lovely performance❤️

Watched it in USA when it was Livestreamed...Wonderfull rememberance service.. Yusuf/Cat sounded amazing too

[@jx14aby]

I never heard of this. I didn't know Yusuf had travelled to New Zealand. The guy should be the U.N.'s ambassador for peace. Heaven knows they need one.

[@Cinderella999-l5r]

@@jx14aby I agree ... Yusuf/Cat Stevens is of a special breed with an extraordinary soul...

[@jx14aby]

@Yusuf patel I believe music is the path. Get politics, nationalism, religion and tribalism out and give peace a chance.

[@jx14aby]

@Yusuf patel - The first thing to do is ban the genital mutilation of all children. Boys and girls.

[@ayhamshaheed7740]

jx14aby for girls it can be very harmful in the long run in terms of physical effects. I personally don’t see much problem with boys though as it doesn’t really affect them later in life

[@trevorlaurin7842]

I have to say this has brought tears to my eyes. As I combat veteran this song has so much more meaning for me then it ever did as I was a young child when it was new.

[@ashleyhazelwood5979]

it would be difficult to find anything as appropriate as this Artist & his wonderful words & music for that moment in that place. If anyone can bring the people of the world togeher it is Yusuf.

4-21-2020, 178th comment, 49,000 views, 1000 thumbs up, Thank you, Yusuf, for your consistency and honesty. Yes, why can't we ride the 'Peace Train', and not the Trumptrain of ignorance. But not everyone can be as conscious as Cat, and feel the sadness of a world locked in old patterns of war and hate and competition. Maybe someday. brother Yusuf, we will get to your more elevated dream of a cooperative world all riding God and Allah's peace train.

[@JNogueira74]

Age doesn't seem to affect the amazing voice and incredible strength... Your songs have helped me many times on my life and I really think you should be the perfect peace voice in a multicultural embassy by UN on the Middle East... we can't let some crazy leaders force us on another war!!!

If you are referring to his Salman Rushdie comments, that was more like 30 years ago, not just a few.
