Pure joy. Something unlocked in him and he has not been the same since. The light in his eyes was amazing. I just can’t really describe it. It was so beautiful.
I am very touched by your comment. It sounds like he was able to reach a part of himself that is difficult to connect to... So glad to hear you're graceful and responsive to it. All the best to both of you
Yep, he also didn't want clapping the first time. He turned his hand to stop them, but was too late and couldn't speak it, so went with it and mentioned it on the next one.
Look at him... wearing jeans, some gray t-shirt, and black shoes. He's incredibly famous but doesn't want to show off. This man prefers to focus on what he values - the music. Respect.
The thing that really shocks me about this is how calm Bobby is while playing in front of probably 100,000 people. I'd be freaking out if I had to do that!
It’s the way he gets the entire audience to join with him. With this high consistent melodies by the people, mixed in with his improvisations, he’s creating the type of music we hear in movies, typically played by full on orchestras. And he’s able to do it in a matter of seconds. That’s freaking amazing.
@@LauraMorland There's also a video of him doing a less complex version with an unprepared, non-musical audience while participating in an event about the neuroscience of music at the World Science Festival in 2009. czcams.com/video/ne6tB2KiZuk/video.html
One of the tally interesting things about Bobby is that he takes influences from so many different musical genres and cultures across the world, and puts them together in his improv. You can hear traditionally Indian and East Asian sounds in his melodies, as well as several African styles of harmony and body percussion, mixed together with a knowledge of classical and contemporary European musical theory. It's absolutely masterful
@@kenjackben It's "gibberish", which some people call vocables...it's extraodinary isn't it? one doesn't need words that are recognizable...I've played like this for many years with a song circle (well, not like This.....never claimed to be a performer and I've not heard anyone with Bobby McFerrin's vocal skills)It's like going back to being a child (they don't simply vocalize to learn to talk) + all & every kind of influence and in Bobby's case he's from a classical music set of parents & is also a conductor...here demonstrating conducting the entire stadium !
Nah you got it completely backwards. All those cultural music forms you mentioned are branches of the African Continental and Diasporic musical traditions of Black Folks. He is manifesting the essential source creative black soul musicality from which all music of all peoples derive.
@GotWood? Bushcraft and more its musical expectation, its an actual thing, your brain is wired to recognize patterns and and will instinctively recognize the natural progression, unless of course you are absolutely tone deaf, which the vast majority of people wont be cause rhythm is actually quite natural.
I think from 0:00 to 1:40 is some of the most beautifully constructed freestyles i've ever heard in my life. It's like something that could be played in heaven (if there is one)
It just so happened that I was part of the event. It was one of the most impressive singing experiences of my life, singing opera choruses with 54,000 singers and symphony orchestra, and then to improvise with Bobby McFerrin. Just to illustrate how difficult it was to bring the huge choir together: because of the size of the stadium, the sound took about one second from one end of the choir to the other. Not easy to improvise rhythmically under these circumstances. His improvisations where much more differentiated when I sang with him later in Zurich in a small group.
Why didn't you scold the asian girl that clapped immediately after she was instructed not to cap? @3:10 I'm just kidding.. Your lucky to have heard and saw this live.
@@Wallyworld30 :D That was because he was a Bavarian. They can't help it, Oktoberfest. Seriously. I was shocked at how untalented the amateur choristers were at improvising. I once improvised on stage with McFerrin in Zurich, and the audience was much more musically intelligent there (many music students among them). Nevertheless, the sound of 54,000 singers was simply overwhelming.
The fact that one man, no different from you or I, one man can connect thousands of people in an instant with the sound of music. Music is a beautiful thing and it will NEVER die.
It never fails to give me full body chills the moment the crowd gets it and becomes this beautiful fluid instrument that Bobby can play like no other. To be a part of that must have been nearly transcendent.
I FOUND THIS AFTER YEARS OF NOT BEING ABLE TO FIND THIS I remember this from when I was like 8 or something and my music teacher showed us this in her class, and this just gave me a great appreciation for artistry and the amazing people who participate. To this day his imagination just amazes me.
And here i am.... sitting in my room on a summer evening, it's raining outside it's dark and there are lightnings nearly every 2 minutes. I am just sitting there at the window watching the lightnings and listening to this masterpiece. This is probably one of the moments in life i will never forget.. the feeling you get is absolut incredible. Thank you bobby mcferrin
He was merely saying don't clap because we have natural tendency to speed up and also it takes away from the beautifulness in which he was trying to create with the different arpeggiations. Much respect to Bobby what he is able to do. This particular video was over 7 minutes and everybody loved him. The video speaks for itself. The gift of music
im so happy he said "DON'T CLAP" that second time bc when they started clapping it was so off beat and i wanted to hear the melody lol love this man, so talented
I love that the audience’s part starts at 3:02 but it’s only on his second bass note at 3:22 that their participatory role reveals its power. I wonder how they all felt at that moment
I love music. I’m a (former) musician, haven’t played in a few years but I miss it so much. Idk why but hearing music just sends me to another planet almost like a drug. The emotions I feel when I listen to certain music, is unexplainable. I WISH I had a good singing voice because I would never stop singing. If you ever see me listening to a certain song and I’m crying, it’s not because I’m sad about something. It’s the harmonies,melodies, and EVERYTHING that just make those tears flow! Idk why lmao
JWitt30 Barely just mention something you like or dislike and just wait for the wave of hate to come like in another other field of interest in people. Fundamentally basic statement is barely true and applies to more then music.
What's the most impressive thing that most don't notice is that huge crowds are "stupid" as they are affected heavily by group dynamics. Bobby was first singing a more complex progression and wanted the crowd to join. However some started clapping (which is much easier) and the whole crowd joined clapping. He then tried to sing higher notes hoping the crowd would realise which didn't work. So he made a complete break and started over. This time he he avoided the repetitive motion of his hand which would just animate the clappers again and just sing a single note waiting until the crowd joined in. Once they were actually singing (or tuned in) he could actualy work with the crowd. Controlling such a huge group of people is not easy and when they don't do what you want it's really hard to get them back under your control. That's one of the brilliant takeaways of this performance (besides the awesome improv and the amazing Bobby McFerrin). I always like to come back to this.
I have been jamming with a group of around 14 people ceremoniously for years just increasing our vibration and there are moments where we have divine moments and we lived for those moments for many years. The highlight of many of our lives.
The healing capacity of mass choir events like this is off the charts.. this should be something we see in every town and city of the world, not just one offs.. people could heal singing on street corners and in parks, two people harmonizing can heal a small group, a stadium full of voices CAN heal the world. We need more of this 🥰
Music, in & OF itself SHOULD be ALL it takes to bring this entire Human 'Race' to it's senses & the realization there is NO reason to find anything in each-other worth hurting each-other for.
This is so otherworldly and absolutely magical. I get choked up when people form a collective vibe and this is so beautiful during this COVID world we are living through. 2020 go home you're drunk!!
Still sad to see his disappointment when people start clapping (instead of singing) the first time. One of my favorite music videos of all time. What a master of vocals. So much love.
This is really beautiful. It’s so amazing how he has fused so many different melodies from around the world and made them all sound so harmonious. From African, to Indian, to Middle-Eastern, to Nordic, to Asian, he wrapped them together with his expansive knowledge of music theory. Absolutely magnificent.
These performances are absolutely amazing. He uses nothing but a microphone and the people around him to produce a magical effect, the human mind is his instrument and he is a master
He can't be human! It was a long time since I last listened to McFerrin's wonderful music, today I re-discovered him, while showing different and alternative musicians to my cello playing daughter Amanda, whose starting college next year, majoring in Music... I'm so happy...
Absolutely incredible. Moved me to tears. It's too bad he's best known for "Don't Worry, Be Happy"... While it's not a bad song, it doesn't show the diversity of his sound.
Музыка наших предков, музыка всех нас. Эти песни они пели у костров и мотивы были у них такими. Слушая подобное мы возвращаемся к ним, к тем кострам! Мы все одного поля ягода!
Veltins-Arena is a football stadium in Gelsenkirchen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It opened in 2001, as the new home ground for German Bundesliga club Schalke 04.
.... well, ok. You can clap. (All the grownups smile.) My 3-year old STOOD UP at a Peter, Paul, and Mary concert and declared that they were singing the words wrong. I started to grab her ... and then all that love came pouring over. So, ... ok.
3:08 you forgot ...full 2 second pause😹clearly she misheard & was zoned out in focused on helping whatever It was get unstuck between Bobby & the crowd tho😆 adorable
@@intercat4907 pretty sure Peter Paul & Mary could never be offended with any innocents lyrical alterations. That's lovely, I hope for her sake they play Puff the Magic..
This was spirit. He was connected to a higher level of consciousness and only those on that level too will appreciate this. I can't be the only one that was hearing different cultures and backgrounds. Man is a legend
I have been to Mr. McFerrin's concerts and there is almost always a time where he gets spontaneous participation like this. It is incredible to be in the middle of that pure music. It is so joyful whether you can sing well or not. He is like the pied piper. We just follow him.He is so accomplished and well known around the world for all types of music. I've seen him conduct a full orchestra doing Beethoven and Chopin without a score. He's done a gospel celebratory program. He is well known for his world music like this. Amazing talent. Thank you so much for posting.
Bobby McFerrin will always be one of the most talented musicians ever. His music always had a way of making everybody who hears it feel a special kind of joy.
People like this, with this level of creativity and talent, are not just singers. They truly use their voice and their bodies as an instrument. It’s so cool
+Sigmund Freud He wanted them to join his singing (like don't clap, sing!), when they did it really sounded great, too bad they haven't tried on the parts that repeated
He was probably trying to get different sections of the audience to repeat the different pitches he kept repeating to make a beautifu,l harmonious melody. That would have been cool if the crowd knew.
Straight up, never heard a live vocal performance that has made me genuinely feel the connection between the audience. For that brief moment, humanity in that room was united.
So Bobby what instruments do you play?
Bobby: human
He plays the crowd

Thanks for sharing, that was so beautiful
Reading this with the melody at the background got me in tears.
You have a good kid, stay strong
Bobby McFerrin will always be a legend. And the "DON'T CLAP" part is so funny lmao 😂😂😂😂
by the time the claps reach him from the very distant audience, they are completely out of time and disruptive 😅
The clapping audience is a very anoying thing. Especially in germany where this concert was.
Yep, he also didn't want clapping the first time. He turned his hand to stop them, but was too late and couldn't speak it, so went with it and mentioned it on the next one.
I'm a musician and I listen to a lot of music. This is my all-time favourite vocal performance. Ever. Out of all of them. Bless Bobby McFerrin.
Right???? It kills me that every one only knows him for don't worry be happy. He's got such better stuff
Bless him

Bobby's vocals are in the dictionary definition of power rangers.
Absolutely incredible. Moved me to tears. It's too bad he's best known for "Don't Worry, Be Happy"... While it's not a bad song, it doesn't show the diversity of his sound.
Well considering the whole song is made up of different sounds he made from his mouth it's pretty good.
organicio Don't worry, Be Happy fuckin rules though
Truer words have never been spoken...
Well... he was young and he has grown up. Some singers would be proud to stop their carrier with that song :))))
Imagine if he had a loop pedal.
this performance i watched in 2012 the way he has an arena full of people participate in unison is truly an inspiration.. i won't give up.
I need this as a whole song 🥲
Whenever I hear his voice, my eyes get watery.
>"Don't clap"
> Badass kid fuckin claps
+Kristen Estevez lmao k
+Anjo and when they do clap they do it out of tempo
+Luciano Benotto yeah that bugged me
+Anjo hahahahaha you got scared of Kristen and her mom's friend.
Most Wanted ???
Музыка наших предков, музыка всех нас. Эти песни они пели у костров и мотивы были у них такими. Слушая подобное мы возвращаемся к ним, к тем кострам! Мы все одного поля ягода!
if you come from Key & Peele videos, raise your hands 😂😂😂
i didnt expect to discover such talent and true art like this. Damnn
Coming here after watching the Key and Peele impression skit
SAME!
Loool you got it right
huh....never saw it...now I'll head to Key and Peele which is possibly the wrong direction!
Same
Hahaha. Yep!
почему этот шедевр мне попался только сейчас?
Сколько еще годноты от нас скрыто в глубинах ютуба

My God. That was a pure glorious harmonic beauty injection deep into my soul.
I truly believe this guy has a super power.
You shall not clap unless Bobby gives permission first you peasants!!!
ITS GERMAN TRADITION TO CLAP:::SORRY

Veltins-Arena is a football stadium in Gelsenkirchen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It opened in 2001, as the new home ground for German Bundesliga club Schalke 04.
He wanted them to sing..

LEGEND BOBBY
I love that I'm able to come back here again and again to listen to this melody
I don’t know to explain this but listening brings me to zen.
I love this guy, he is multi talented, i never saw i my life any other person like him
bobby- “don’t clap”
little girl- *claps*
.... well, ok. You can clap. (All the grownups smile.) My 3-year old STOOD UP at a Peter, Paul, and Mary concert and declared that they were singing the words wrong. I started to grab her ... and then all that love came pouring over. So, ... ok.
3:08 you forgot
...full 2 second pause😹clearly she misheard & was zoned out in focused on helping whatever It was get unstuck between Bobby & the crowd tho😆 adorable
Clearly confused but the little one was on beat though at least!~^°♡¹
@@intercat4907 pretty sure Peter Paul & Mary could never be offended with any innocents lyrical alterations. That's lovely, I hope for her sake they play Puff the Magic..
@@ras_krystafari3333 Thank you for understanding my 25-year-old story. They sang Puff. Stay well.
This was spirit. He was connected to a higher level of consciousness and only those on that level too will appreciate this. I can't be the only one that was hearing different cultures and backgrounds. Man is a legend
I love how effortless his high notes are
I have been to Mr. McFerrin's concerts and there is almost always a time where he gets spontaneous participation like this. It is incredible to be in the middle of that pure music. It is so joyful whether you can sing well or not. He is like the pied piper. We just follow him.He is so accomplished and well known around the world for all types of music. I've seen him conduct a full orchestra doing Beethoven and Chopin without a score. He's done a gospel celebratory program. He is well known for his world music like this. Amazing talent. Thank you so much for posting.
Well said! Well said!
He is pure music.
Beethoven? Das nl toch of belgie mnu maar hij is in ons land geweest
Pied piper on point!
Played this for my daughter (almost seven) today. She insisted on adding this to our bedtime routine.
Who’s here in 2023.❤ so timeless
Bobby McFerrin will always be one of the most talented musicians ever. His music always had a way of making everybody who hears it feel a special kind of joy.
He's not human he's instrument with heart, mind and soul❤️🎼🎵🎶
That 4:00 riff begins something that should be in movie trailers. It's so badass.
People like this, with this level of creativity and talent, are not just singers. They truly use their voice and their bodies as an instrument. It’s so cool
I've lost count the number of times iv watched this..any time i feel lost or depressed i watched this video..and it has helped me a lot
2019 anyone?
How come I never found out about this guy until just now. Smh. What a genius.
MrTech143 I think I watch this vid a few times a year :) ethereal!
I know yeah?
Check out his álbum circle songs and the song he did with heart motion trio, those with this song are among my favorites of all time
He sings don’t worry be happy
Just discovered him ! I am so in late omg
At 1:49 he was like, "Nooo, no don't clap". Then at 1:51 he shakes his head like, "Ohhh, these idiots..."
+Sigmund Freud He wanted them to join his singing (like don't clap, sing!), when they did it really sounded great, too bad they haven't tried on the parts that repeated
+Sigmund Freud I thought I was the only one to notice :D
a freudian slip...
He was probably trying to get different sections of the audience to repeat the different pitches he kept repeating to make a beautifu,l harmonious melody. That would have been cool if the crowd knew.
@techno-en tosti-s Germans can't help it, too. They have to clap to everything..
I just saw, this actually is in Germany lol
This just sent shivers down my whole body
👁️👄👁️
Straight up, never heard a live vocal performance that has made me genuinely feel the connection between the audience. For that brief moment, humanity in that room was united.
I have nothing to say, but I cannot leave here without leaving a comment to inspire this legend
A divine moment, an angelic interaction...
