      I really appreciate the enormous effort you must put into making these videos. Hats off to you sir.
      If you'd like to treat your guests to something utterly different, maybe have them react to a Defqon 1 endshow (I recommend the 2019 one). It's one of the largest Hard Style festivals in The Netherlands and the endshows never fail to deliver when it comes to the music, the light show, and the fireworks. It is an amazing thing to experience in real life. Tens of thousands of people dancing to the same beat. One Blood, One Love, One Tribe.

      I completely understand.. but at same time, it’s like getting mad you have to brush your teeth. There’s just a percentage of people’s commentary that is always going to be negative or lacking in basic consciousness. It’s getting worse, as the consumption of media & corruption of minds- literally people are getting unaccustomed to basic conversation skills. It is changing their brains. You are a rare island of good & quality content on the internet. But I sit here & often hope that these tribal people’s exposure is limited.. & doesn’t lead them to an endless amount in their off time. Their lives are better without 99.99% of the interactions & content on the internet at large. If it helps you to always clap back at the silly people, I get it. But I wish you didn’t have to have the negative impact at all.

    I never heard the sadness in his voice and performance until they pointed it out. There's a whole new dimension to this song for me now - his bared grin, sometimes forced and sometimes genuine, the times it falters, the grumble in his voice being one of pain rather than... aesthetic(?), the insistence that there is hope in and for the world even despite all the hardships. I'll never hear this song the same way again

      I always felt this song must be what God thinks as she looks down. It isn’t that the nature and the town aren’t beautiful: or indeed that the world isn’t wonderful. It is that the wonderful world is so scarred and destroyed by evil. The repetition of “It’s a wonderful world” is very like the repetition of “and God saw that it was good” in Genesis. I’d actually never seen the performance, but you can hear the tightness in his voice on the recording. Other artists of course, have interpreted the song differently: most of them do interpret it as happy, or at least hopeful. But Armstrong’s version is definitely melancholic: lamenting how the wonders of the world are destroyed by ignorance and malice.

      It wasn't the working class that did the injustices, since they had a status similarly to a slave. He wanted the root of the hatred to intervene with itself, naturally the feds didn't care to stop fanning the flames of bigotry.

      @@applejuice3562 Technically, it was more than a few years (apologies if I go too general here; trying to make it accessible to those who may not have any familiarity). "Blues" is thought to have emerged in the 1860s, from the work songs and spiritual hymns of the enslaved African-American community, which themselves contained many elements of varieties of traditional African music. As you can imagine, such songs involved a lot of sadness, as being enslaved along with all your family and friends in a hostile land is a very sad business. Blues created the "blues form", which involved things like specific "blues" scales and the 12-bar "blues" chord structure, which would come to underlie much of the later "jazz".
      "Jazz" emerged around the turn of the 20th century, and owed a great deal to both "blues" and "ragtime" (another type of music, mostly played on the piano). "Jazz" is most notable for the extensive use of improvisation in its songs, as most involve at least one section where each player gets a featured solo, made up on-the-spot and usually unique to each and every performance.
      "Blues" continues to be its own genre, too, so "jazz, "blues", "rock", etc. all continue to influence and be influenced by each other.

      There's definitely an edge of bitter sadness to this song, but I think it just accentuates the joy. It's a wonderful world full of wonderful things, and at some point we all have to leave it. That's very sad, but it also makes the time we do have that much more precious to us. Sometimes there is beauty in impermanence itself. There is also the question of how, with so much natural beauty and the wonders of kindness and friendship around us, we can still be so committed to ugly and senseless hate. It's a beautiful world, but it is sad that we choose to make it less beautiful than it might be, for absolutely no good reason. There's some grief for that lost beauty and joy here, I think.

    If you were blind and heading straight for a cliff, would you care about the colour of the person attached to the hand that pulled you back from toppling over the edge to certain doom?
    All that matters is that the people we meet are kind and loving, and that we do unto others as we would want them to do unto us.

    From New Orleans... Having taken Louis A. and this song for granted for all of my life, it is not until seeing this reaction video that I really saw the full range of emotion that Louis is putting into it, the true joy in the beauty of the world but also the forced smile and barely suppressed tears as he must look past the darkness to see it. Sometimes you truly do have to see your own world through the eyes of a stranger to perceive what is right in front of your face. BTW this is like the fourth of your videos in this series I have watched and I am totally enchanted. The care you put into presenting our world to them as accurately as possible without being condescending and their obvious fascination and often wisdom about what they are seeing gives me hope for the future like nothing else I have seen recently.

The African-American community also invented zydeco, blues, rap, and rhythm & blues music over the past 150 years. There has been a lot of pain in those years, and the music often shows it, but it's a gift to the world that will continue to amaze people for centuries to come, ensuring that history lives on through music.

Western culture has a lot to offer, but not all of it is good. These wonderful people seem to already have all they need INSIDE them!! God and love.

    I always cry when I hear this song. It was my grandfather's and mine. It was our song. My grandfather was an amazing man who had a lot of love to give. We lost him years ago, but it feels always recent. Anytime I hear this song since his passing it makes me feel he is talking to me. It always pops up when I need it. Even the day after he passed, I walked into a coffee shop and it was playing on the speaker. I knew it was his way of saying he was with me and I wouldn't be alone. Thank you for this video. ❤

Jacques Loussier can also be a good choice to show them how people merged Jazz with Classical music. Or Django Reinhardt to talk about "Manouche" people in Europe and their origins. Dorothy Ashby and Alice Coltrane could also be very interesting to them.

    This song makes me cry whenever I hear it. They are incredibly insightful to pick up on the sadness behind his eyes because the world was very hard for Blacks in our country at this time, very few black people had influence with the exception of a few remarkable musicians, like Louis Armstrong. However, he still had to play music for the white audiences, and for them at the time, they were clinging to this idealistic America, which was racist, and intentionally blind to the suffering of Black people. But nothing, and I mean NOTHING, has influenced music more worldwide than American Jazz from the 20’s through the 60s and 70s.
    I would show them some Ella Fitzgerald! She collaborated with Louis Armstrong constantly, plus she herself was an unbelievable singer. “God Bless the Child” has a strong message about generosity and selfishness during times of poverty (the world had not forgotten the Great Depression) but she also has many very famous songs about love and sensuality in an acceptably chaste way for the 60’s. And again-Jazz was the only place you would ever hear a slightly naughty song like “Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered.” What a time period for music in History!
    I love Jazz and listen to the classics to this day in my everyday life because I had a choir teacher in high school who really helped me flourish personally and she incorporated a ton of jazz into the swing choir I was a part of. But MANY Americans still listen to jazz from this era because it’s so iconic and can’t really be beat-especially around the Christmas holidays. Most Americans only listen to jazz in winter for some reason. Haha.
    Hope you are all well, my friends! Thank you for sharing your thoughts! Everyone looked really great in this video. 😊 glad to see everyone looking healthy and happy.

    I also think it's interesting that they could see the pain and sadness in him.Louis Armstrong was a homeless orphan as a small child.He would stand on the street corner and sing and people would give him coins and that is how he would live.he was a small child of 4 or 5 years old.
    One day a Jewish couple came by and heard him sing and continued to see him.they decided to bring him home so he wasn't homeless anymore.The couple had children and in their home they spoke Yiddish.when Louis turned 11 or 12 they got him his first instrument.it was a trumpet.Getting an instrument was the tradition in their culture.tgey raised the young orphan and encouraged him to continue to perform...This song is about seeing the good in life and the world even when bad things happen and people are cruel.
