It isn't THAT mindblowing. Lots of people improvise, and can pull much more lyrrically complex stuff out of their ass. This is wonderfull, but let's not get egoistic and boastfull, it's a song, he's not a god, he's a man.
Well mr Gibsongoblin, he did not write this on the spot, so it is not mindblowing at all. This is a well know old gospel song, for instance sung by Paul Robeson around 1940. For sure Richie Havens knew this gospel song very well in 1969.
@@gijsschubert7901 Don't insinuate that he plagiarized these lyrics because he never claimed to write them. What he actually did was improvise a mind-blowing (original) medley of a couple black spiritual songs after he played for nearly three hours to approximately 1 million people; he improvised this song on his FOURTH encore because he had literally played every song that he considered worth playing. To those who aren't close-minded trolls, it is mind-blowing. "Motherless Child" was performed in the 1870s by The Fisk Jubilee Singers and then recorded by Lois Deppe, Bessie Griffin, Paul Robeson, Louis Armstrong, Wynton Marsalis and even Elvis Presley before Richie sang some of the lyrics in 69; Richie also sang lyrics from "Tell Him What You Want" recorded by The Caravans in 1954! Countless gospel, folk, blues and R&B artists have been mistakenly credited with writing songs they have performed. Your attempt to diminish this mind-blowing performance is ham-fisted at best. Fuck outta here.
Shout to Richie Havens For being the very 1st musician on that Woodstock stage,he is etched in Rock&Roll history forever!!! and also for the creativity to create this music completely on the spot for 100,000 kids seeking that good 'ole liberating FREEDOM!!!
Pure emotion overcoming time. This day of summer 1969 Richie Havens kindle a star light in mankind sky. Is he really gone if his tremendous song ever stay...reminding us our will.
I love this song. Im adopted. Im 55! I wish I could of seen him at Woodstock but I was 1yrs old. I recently found my biological mother and I have three half-brothers this world is a trip!
+Nox Fortes WAIT! BEFORE I WRECK THIS BEAT LEMME JUST CHECK TO SEE IF STEPHANIE MILLS LEFT ANY EXTRA REFILLS OF ECSTASY PILLS IN THE SEAT SPILLED OR'D SHE EAT 'EM ALL WITH A BREAKFAST DRINK? (YOU INSPECT THE SINK?)
Much appreciated. Saw him live at a small venue decades ago; Richie and I were the only people moving and rocking. Sad yet memorable joy with connecting to the source. Well done upload. Thank you.
I knew the song with the Woodstock movie ( first song in the movie btw ) long time ago before Django Unchained but of course i was glad to hear it in the movie of Tarantino ✌Tarantino has always very good taste for each soundtrack of his movies 👍
Some times I feel like I needed humanity to teach me humanity. So I could have that love that is me a human being as a human. Because it's been life times of pain and what I needed was to dance
You can hear the 2nd guitarist and the percussionist much clearer in this than in all the versions with video. It sounds like the audio here was recorded directly from the output feed, which would be the closest you could get to hearing what the audience would've heard
La canción es un verdadero poema, una obra de arte.!!! Libertad" A veces me siento como si casi hubiera desaparecido" En el largo, largo camino desde mi casa Libertad" A veces me siento como un niño huérfano" En el largo, largo camino, camino desde mi casa Cuando necesito a mi madre, llamo a mi madre Cuando necesito a mi hermana, llamo a mi hermana Cuando necesito a mi padre, lloro a mi padre Cuando necesito a mi hermano, llamo a mi hermano A veces me siento como si casi hubiera desaparecido En el largo, largo camino, camino desde mi casa.
Check out Gay cavalier, a collab he did with great italian guitarist and songwriter/singer pino daniele, really soulful, deep and powerful piece not everybody knows from richie
the fact that he wrote this on the spot and improvised it is completely mind blowing
"That long intro is just me stalling. I couldn't think of anything else to sing!"

My only regret is that I have but one thumbs up to give this song.
My dad saw him at Woodstock in 69. He tears every time he hears this song.
Megan Marie this song rips at me too !
Your dad witness something unique!
And rightfully so. This is a very poignant song.
Date me
your Dad has an open heart for peace.

Rest in peace gifted artist, Richie Havens.
I love the scratching in his voice. Nobody sings like that anymore. I wish someone would come out of nowhere with a voice like this.
Pure emotion overcoming time. This day of summer 1969 Richie Havens kindle a star light in mankind sky.
Is he really gone if his tremendous song ever stay...reminding us our will.
This song makes me feel free

Perfect Song to get Captured or Surrender to.
Such a powerful song. This song sticks with me. Every 4th of July and in between i always think of this song.

The guitar intro is SLAMMIN

Iconic Song in Woodstock
Freedom! From Texas! Freedom!
La canción es un verdadero poema, una obra de arte.!!!
Libertad"
A veces me siento como si casi hubiera desaparecido"
En el largo, largo camino desde mi casa
Libertad"
A veces me siento como un niño huérfano"
En el largo, largo camino, camino desde mi casa
Cuando necesito a mi madre, llamo a mi madre
Cuando necesito a mi hermana, llamo a mi hermana
Cuando necesito a mi padre, lloro a mi padre
Cuando necesito a mi hermano, llamo a mi hermano
A veces me siento como si casi hubiera desaparecido
En el largo, largo camino, camino desde mi casa.
