Your drumming on this masterpiece of a song was nothing short of incredible!
Parabéns, cara!!! Isso foi lindo demais!!! Sensacional!!!!!
Your incredible talent and rhythmic prowess added an unforgettable dimension to our rendition of 'Doctor My Eyes' in the Song Around The World project. Your contribution has left an indelible mark, and we're immensely grateful for your collaboration. Thank you for being a part of our musical journey and for sharing your gift with the world!
One Love,
The PFC Family 💛
Rest in Peace! David Lindley !!! Finally Jackson looks his age .. I was beginning to think laurel canyon had some secrets ❤
Great job!
Leland Sklar and Russ Kunkel reprising their parts from the original is such a treat!
Absolutely!!!❤
And... Leland playing the same bass he used in the original, his "peace bass"
Wow!
LEGENDS!
100% 👍🏼 I loved reading album covers while listening to a new album and I always knew it was gonna be good when you saw Leland on Bass and Russ on drums. Really good nostalgia. ✌🏼
It's magic when you put Jackson, Leland and Russ in a studio together, and then you add all those great players from all over the world it becomes a monumental event!!!!!
Yes it was absolutely monumental I just couldn’t keep still,had too move to the groove just couldn’t help it,very powerful music 💪🔥
Exceptionally well done, legendary song! Always, thanks for sharing. ♥️👍♥️
Maybe you could add Daryl Hannah in that room to beat on as well.
Always one in every room. Idiot.
Stay classy, John Smith. Always a fool coming down the hill...
Just the fact that Jackson can still sing this song and sound like himself is a real pleasure for an old radio DJ like myself. As I listened, I flashed back to hanging out in Gene Shay’s basement, and the photograph of a very young Jackson Browne, sitting on a couch, backstage at the Main Point. Music is such a powerful aspect of how our human memory functions.
I about fell over when I heard his voice! It's just as great as it's always been
Great comment! Still have great memories whenever a Phil Collins song comes on.
“The soundtrack of our lives”
…Dick Clark
Very likely the best version of the tune I've ever heard. Beautiful.
I love these Songs from Around the World. Shows that music is truly a universal language. Well done!!!
They never disappoint us. God bless them all. Oh yeah. 😎😆😁🍺👍🇺🇸
Thank you so much for your kind words!
Bravo!!! Desde ❤ Córdoba 🇦🇷 Argentina 💪👏👏👏👏👏😙😍
SUPERB
truly a masterpiece !!!!!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
51 years on, this song has seen it all, and it keeps making new friends.
😉🤫 turned 12 when this charted the summer of ‘72 🤫😉
Yes !
Hey Billy:
As I’m reading these comments, I’m trying to think of something to contribute. Your comment says a lot.
Thanks for the thought.
@@dbtls you're welcome.
@@ej3016Same here! Still a great song! Made me lifelong fan.
There truly is nothing more uplifting than watching a Playing for Change video and enjoying the talents of these musicians Around the World. Thank you, everyone. Lots of love 💕
Too good and you know it
Simply beautiful. Music brings the world together
In love. 😊❤🙏 🕊 😘.
Ich bewundere diese Videos immer mit Freude. Wie Musik die Herzen der Welt vereint :)
Ein gruss aus Hamburg an der Elbe
I never get tired of watching this video. I gives us a little hope.
Took me a minute to realize this was a new, current, contemporary version. Jackson's voice is as strong and true as ever!
Aged gracefully indeed.
Seeing Jackson and Lee playing together puts such a big smile on my face. Everyone in this special gathering did so well. I love seeing collaborations like this
and Russ!!
@@rvdareyet7201Came here to add Russ, thanks! 😎✌️
🥲 It made me almost cry.
What memories of my youth with this song. Thanks to all who made it happen. ❤❤❤
Leeland always had high regard to russ!
Mr. Sklar’s iconic bass (the same bass that he recorded the original version on) anchors the entire performance. It’s amazing to see so many wonderful musicians playing on this classic song. Long live Jackson Browne.
Thanks for sharing this snippet of history on the bass ❤
And still the best bass player I know of!
@@markvaars37 He helped so many during the pandemic 😊.. god bless leland!
that is such a great bass. Is it 'the' rhythm of the whole song? could debate for ages. Relistened to it many times just for the bass!
This is EXACTLY what the world needs right now, to heal. We need to agree that we are all humans and that we are all together on this earth.
Great to see the beautiful people of the world making music.
Thanks Brothers and sisters
Jackson Browne amazing as always.
David Lindley would have loved that sitar part - great choice. Everyone on this is superb. Leland Sklar is the most musical bass player I have ever heard. And JB still sounding great.
Agreed David would love the sitar...sitar fis in so well............................
The instrument used in this video is actually called a Veena.
YES!!!
Leland Sklar is amazing and that bass of his is STUNNING! Great song too.
That is the same bass he used on the original recording of Dr. My Eyes 🙂
@@colnoble Hell yeah! That's really cool!
agreed way cool
@@colnobleI thought it might be.
The "Love - Peace" Bass. Hand carved by the man himself!
I found this by accident, and I’m not even mad! This was a great, worldwide, rendition! Thank you everyone for putting a smile on my face today. I needed this!
Ditto! ❤
Same here.
I'd never heard of Playing for The World, but I absolutely need to look into it.
The bottom of this song with Leland Sklar’s bass and Jackson Browne’s great rhythm piano groove really anchors this amazing performance.
Wonderful project, wonderful music and wonderful people. 👍👋👋👋🎶✨❤️
Thank you so much! We're glad you liked it
honestly can't get enough of this track ... just incredible
Sitar dude from Chennai killed it. Kunkel was CSN drummer about 50 years ago. But wow Jackson Browne hasn't lost his edge 51 years after this tune was released. Nobody had even heard of him, it was awesome
If you ever saw Jackson Browne live you’d never forget it. One of the best bands ever.
I really enjoyed what you share here 😊❤.
How are you doing today?
Running on Empty
I enjoyed every one...😊
@@lindawilliams2211 oh that's very nice one. So where are you chat from
Saw him in 1972 as a back up for the Eagles I was 12
I was in grade 10 when this album came out. Changed my life. I was a boy. Suddenly I was an adolescent fool
I am in tears. Of joy. What a song. Back then and now so relevant. Jackson's music is pure gold and from around the world these artists know how to groove into it. Makes an old guy like me so happy... Thank you . God bless you all!
Me too!
@@jaketanner20001AND me too!
It's one of those songs that a number of artists wrote at the age of 24 about realizing they're not a kid any more.
Other examples: Neil Young's "Old Man;' Stephen Stills' "4 and 20"
same for this old gal.
I am crying tears of happiness myself right now. Great comment, thank you!
Great version of 'Doctor My Eyes'. Thank you, Jackson and thanks to all the performers who contributed to this version of a masterpiece. ❤
Beautiful harmonies!
💛💛💛
Amen!
@@janedmunds4218. OUTSTANDING!
So wonderful to see Russ and Leland with Jackson. Rajhesh is a fabulous fill-in for Mr Dave. All the other amazing musicians are the icing on the cake. Thank you 🙏
I loved Jackson Browne when I was young. Now I am 80 and still love him as one and only, an exceptional artist. This was beautifully done in coordination, don’t know why but it brought tears in my eyes. Bless all the musicians who performed from various places and made this happen. One of a kind of video we all need to watch, especially now when world is in such a turmoil. Truly, through music this world is ONE💕
Leland Sklar IS the man.
He helped so many during covid pandemic.. very humble nice man.
I love that Leland is playing the original Bass
A wonderful song that has stood the test of time. RIP Jesse Ed Davis. 😎🍺👍🇺🇸
Fabulous rendition that brings back so many memories for so many of us. Jacksons music still holds today. All these artists are fantastic.
People like these should be running our planet. Love and peace. Not greed and power. We have so much potential as a planet. Thank you for sharing
Peace
Yes I agree totally! Music brings all people together ❤️ with one mind and heart .
A shout out to Chavonne, Shereita, Roselyn for their stunning vocals, and to Ali - I love the way your Xylophone looks and the way you play it! I wish there was an EP of this song, so wonderful, and thanks to Jackson Browne & the whole PFC team!
The vocals in the chorus absolutely make this version shine. It wouldn't be the same without these talented artists.
Leland Sklar the legend and his legendary Peace/Love bass.
He's legendary!!
MY FAVORITE SONG OF ALL TIME. What's truly amazing is that Jackson wrote this song in his late teens early twenties. The lyrics are very profound and for someone of that age to write it? Wow!!!
I don’t know if my translation is correct but there’s a saying: “The most dangerous world views are held by people who have never viewed the world.”
We need more people who join together and celebrate music instead of hating each other. Music is the most universal language, next to love.
That quote is so very true!
It's a unifier.
These old favorite songs played by wonderful musicians from around the world always makes my heart happy. Thank you❤️🤗🐝
Masterful! Thank you so much for this💗 been a fan of Jackson Browne for over 45+ years!
Wow you're a legend!
I saw him at UVA nearly 50 years ago, and he is still as great as ever
So good! It just occurred to me that Leland and Russ played on the original with Jackson about 50 years ago. My God, the flood of memories this awakens.
Thank you God for Jackson Browne and all these extraordinary musicians on this extremely heartfelt version of this song. ✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
Weeeepa!!!!! Music is the universal language that unites people across the globe. This was a much needed dose of joy. Thank you!!!🎶🌍💖🎵
Thank you for watching! Enjoy more music at www.playingforchange.com/

Wow! What a special rendition of this classic. Just loved Leland Sklar's bass as the backbone rhythm.
This is one of the best combined talent I’ve seen in a long time. Jackson Browne and everyone is awesome.
What a fantastic and joyous performance of this song by Jackson and the other talented musicians! ❤🎶
Wow...very proud to see Rajhesh vaidhya sir and Veena recognised internationally..amazing sir..👌👌👏👏
Damn, he still sounds good. Saw him in 1972 as back up for the Eagles I was 12.
Love Jackson Brown, this shared version of Doctor my eyes puts a smile on my face in these challenging times. Peace & love on earth 🙏✌❤🎵🎶
Jackson Browne has always created beautiful songs that have deep meaning. He is a true professional And is an artist true to the power of music. Browne cares so much about the Earth 🌎 and doesn't just talk about pollution, he takes action. Every song he has written is a powerful testament to his beliefs And for that he has earned my respect.
Much gratitude for the people behind the scenes who make this magic happen in all the PFC videos. I can only imagine the range of skills which make this complicated project appear seamless for your grateful viewers.
yes indeed. bravo!
All good musicians. “Playing for change“ sounds a bit like a misnomer to me. What exactly are they trying to change? Musicians from around the world have been playing together for years and years now.
Such an amazing performance! And as always thanks to Jackson Browne for putting this out there! I have always tried to keep my eyes open and there is a price to pay for that. But the price is higher for all of us when we close our eyes to the evil and the good.
I really enjoyed what you share here 😊❤.
How are you doing today?
I recently discovered 'Playing for Change', and I'm in awe. So far, I've watched about four videos, and each time I've been moved to tears of joy. I've been a fan of Jackson Browne since the beginning, and seeing the inclusion of such talented musicians from around the world is simply breathtaking.

Hey Seth 👋 👋
@@RockandRollWoman 😁
fun to see Leland Sklar and Russ Kunkel!! if you like music and stories about music, Leland Sklar has a great channel on youtube!! 🌸
That channel is my daily companion. 💙
@@RockandRollWoman mine too🙂 going to miss our “tour” but i think leland was looking tired…take care 🌸
@@saritaschwedes8393 I agree, he did look tired. He had to be. The tour schedule was intense.
Music brings the world together
@@rwayneb thank you! you’re right ! 🌸
I remember hearing this song as a kid and falling in love with Jackson Browne. This brought all those feelings rushing back. Thank you. ❤
really enjoyed what you share here I'm so glad to hear that.
How are you doing today😊?
As an old guy singing, Jackson Brown takes the cake! So many old rockers try to pretend that they can sing just to make a few bucks, but their voices can't fulfill the promise that their promoters have made. Mr Brown your are my man! And all the other performs on this video have done a wonderful job. The choices for which performance snippets should end up in the final product is excellent. Thank all you performers around the world!
♥️ Playing for Change and musicians around the world collaborating. Truly a treat as always. Great to see JB, LS,RK together again. Kudos to you all.
Play on.🎶🎶🎶
Love Jackson Browne, Leland Sklarr & Russ Kuncle!!!
I heard of that getting shivers down the neck.. so it finally happened to me, just now, listening to this old song redone in the wider world. Wow!
Thaht's the power of music!
@@PlayingForChangeJeff Berwick's latest video matches .... dollar vigilante
One of my favorite songs ever !!!!!!
Jackson has that smooth, mellow voice that takes u along for the
ride with him !!
It still sounds exactly like the song sounded, all those years ago !!!!
BRAVO ……. Love you Jackson !!!😘
Amen to that!
How am I just discovering this jewel? Leland Sklar and Russ Kunkel. This makes me happy!
So good love the bass line in this
Original bassist on the same bass as the original single, Lee Sklar! Russ Kunkel played on the original, too.!
@@kitano0Those gents played on so many great recordings from the 70s -- Jackson Browne, James Taylor, and Carole King among my favorites. Lee's bass lines in the quiet moments are often what endeared me to those songs, and caused me to wear out at least one JT album. So great seeing them here, together in the same room (like recordings used to be done, so the musicians can play off each other). Very happy that all of these artists are still out there, making music!
(And bummed that I couldn't get to see Jackson last month at the Beacon Theater, or James last weekend at Jones Beach. We're all getting older, but my hips have aged faster than all of us.)
excellent mix to put bass line up front
@@patriciamorgan6545I love their current band, The Immediate Family, with Waddy Wachtel, Danny Kortchmar and Steve Postell. A documentary should be in theaters in December. I've seen it twice, and loved it.
A tear came to my eye. Lee, Russ, Jackson, but no David.
Rajhesh and Char did such a beautiful job of filling giant shoes.
Such an amazing collaboration of talent from all over the world.
What a special project.
This was one of my favorite songs as a teenager. This around the world version is awesome. I love it.
I really enjoyed what you share here 😊❤.
How are you doing today?
Jacksons voice is timeless. Gives me chills to this day!
To wake up and find this on a stunning sunny morning! Jacksons music has been the constant my whole life. Absolute bliss.

@@pipermccoolRight?
Wow! What a treat for us older folks...these guys and their music shape and define so many of our experiences during the 70's ...TY!
I always love anything to do with "Playing for Change"! Jackson Browne is a superb addition!!
I can't hear this song without it bringing a tear to my eye. The idea that an aware individual cannot possibly spend a lifetime walking through our world without seeing so much pain and grief that they are left wanting to keep them closed and witness nothing is an idea that should absolutely break any caring individual's heart. A marvelous choice for this series of collaborations.
Thank you for this performance of "Doctor My Eyes." Here is a quote from Steps to Knowledge about seeing the world with new eyes. "I wish to see a world I have never seen before.... Today... feel your desire to see a different world. Look at the world without judgment and say to yourself, 'I wish to see a different world'... Practice no matter how you feel, no matter what is occurring. You are greater than your emotional states and so you need not deny them... You are greater than the images you see around you, for they mostly represent your judgment upon the world. Practice this day looking without judgment and feeling as you look." (Marshall Vian Summers, STK)
Thank you!
Who is the Middle East has eyes to see a different world and make it real?
What a GREAT arrangement - true to the original, yet new and fresh! So much talent on a song that has lasted the test of time. Jackson has been one of my favs ever since I listened to his first album in '72, which had this song. My sister bought the album - she had great taste in music and introduced me to so many - I miss her.

I just love how these are mixed from a technical and especially from an esthetic perspective. It is amazing that this quality can be achieved from such diverse equipment spread across such different environments and blended so well. It showcases the value of everyone in different countries and cultures, participating with their own musical heritage.
Jesse is smiling down. I grew up on this song, this album. Never gets old.

I watch this almost EVERY DAY!
Great rendition of this song, it is so very timeless!

0:36 pure goosebumps when those harmonies kicked in during the chorus
Leland and Russ!!!
Themselves!
I love their current band, The Immediate Family. There's a documentary with an expected release date of December 2023. New album should drop around then too.
< sighs of pleasure >
Leeland was a life saver during the covid pandemic... God bless that man his doggies 😊
The universal joy of the musicians is so infectious. I never want these PFC songs to end ❤
That brings me tears of joy. Love JB music and that collective performance is nothing but amazing.
These tracks are masterpieces of musical artistry, collaboration, and technical brilliance in sound recording, mixing and engineering and editing to blend it all into an joyous, harmonious whole.
Thank you to all involved!
Absolutely ♥️ and what a gift to all of us!!!

Absolutely fabulous and such a signal of hope for humankind when in so many places there seems to be nothing but hate and cruelty. Gorgeous musicianship from around the world showing that there is a love we can all share. Thank you to everyone who played on that and otherwise helped to make it happen. Oh and thank you Jackson Browne for a lifetime of great music and songs and dedication to the cause of shining the light of truth into the dark places where dishonesty may be lurking 👍💌
What a song! Seeing Jackson Browne sing the lyrics and Chivonne Stewart... wow!
