Let's take action and be the change we want to see in the world!!
These singers are very good, but after I heard this guy playing on the radio, I was amazed czcams.com/video/R4XmQ54pFWE/video.html
💯
Podiam convidar musicos do sul do Brasil Rio grande do sul , para fazer uma participação
Right on! Don't wait for the world to change - go out and change it yourself!
The You Tube algorithm blew it. It picked up world and change and threw at us the climate change non-factual disclaimer, or reminder, another attempt of manipulation, at telling us how to think. It does not matter anymore because the world is, indeed, changing.
Waiting for the world to change is about the New Earth. There are two factors bringing that to us: the energies of the universe and our own rise in frequency, our choice of thinking for ourselves..
I said it before, I will say it again. This is what the internet was for. ❤️🌎
We have more in common than we are told. Its not the people that are the problem, its the governments.
Please watch my music VID for the CHILDREN OF THE WORLD who have No VOICE here is their VOICE.... yes share czcams.com/video/_JcchFW-N5o/video.html
The governments are held in place by the unthinking people.
Greed, power and religion separates us all.

Agree - politicians, governments are divide & conquer
Absolutely beautiful music!!! The world can't change until the people do. Peace, freedom, equality, and love is what we need. Above all else we need to protect our children!!! ☮🕊✊🏽💖🌎

Sometimes i wish people can take a pause and see how powerful they are. The power to happiness, change,love and peace is in our hands. Life has been given to us embrace but most of us we seem to be lost and we wait for the world to change. We need to take a step back. Beautiful combination of culture and rhythm. Deep indeed. Music will always connect us in a beautiful way. Thank you.❤

It's not the world that needs changing, it's the world's leaders that need to change and tell the real truth. But that will never happen and that makes me weep for the people of the world.
I’m not waiting I am changing it for the better, if you wait, you’ll keep on waiting, time is now CREATE YOUR REALITY, you are CO CREATORS OF THIS UNIVERSE 👁🙌🏼✨🙏🏼👸🏻💙Love and Light sent to you beautiful humans!💗

Is a beautiful dream that we have been dreaming for decades!
Simplesmente sensacional!!!! Toda vez que vocês publicam um vídeo novo, vejo o quanto a música tem a capacidade de unir a todos os povos. Parabéns a todos. Alana... se você ler isso aqui, você sabe, né? Mas, vou repetir: TU É INCRÍVEL!!!! O solo do baixo ficou top demais e que groove durante a condução. Aliás, tudo na canção ficou de muito bom gosto. Mais uma vez: SENSACIONAL!!!!!
❤
As beautiful as this collaboration music is, we each of us can not wait. Any student of history can see the only human changes on this planet have been technology. Humans have not changed in thousands of years. Maybe we can't.
Beautiful PFC!
Congratulations!
Long Life!
Thank's!

Enough of waiting ....
Lets be the change "now" of the world we want to see ...
Lets start by coming together to uphold truth and justice in our personal lives and then extend it to others ...
We are one ...
One love ❤️
One mother earth ❤️🌍..
The more we believe in positive possibility, the more likely we are to act in ways that energize that possibility. "Be the change" is not only about visualizing, but doing. BEing! I will be the change I wish to see today. Join me.
Toby you will be greatly miss you showed everyone what a privilege is is to be a true American and what a true father how much Jesus was your life. I've cried so much with your loss and especially the tribute your children said about you 😢 RIP
Music can be so healing.
Absolutely!
WOW. What a wonderful way to celebrate any changes we can make
I hope John Mayer is feeling honored as his song is done so beautifully on an international stage 💜
Excellent global collaboration, excellent cover, of an iconic song. This has made my morning over here in East Africa. Fell in love with the song "Waiting on the world to change" (by John Mayer), when I first heard it on Kenyan radio back in 2006. Beautiful song. Also guys, I know you read our comments at your CZcams postings, and here's a humble request from East Africa for a future music/cultural project of yours. "Malaika" (i.e. Angel in Kiswahili), is a Kiswahili love song that was written by Adam Salim of Tanzania (then known as Tanganyika), in 1945. The first known recording of "Malaika" was made by Fadhili William of Kenya in 1960. Tanzania and Kenya are neighbouring countries here in East Africa, and as a result, there continues to be a feud over who "owns" the song "Malaika," and where it originated from. Many Tanzanians insist that their Adam Salim composed "Malaika," while many of us here in Kenya insist that it is our Fadhili William who composed "Malaika."
Despite the fact that I am a Kenyan, I personally have long now accepted, that "Malaika" actually originated from our brothers and sisters in neighbouring Tanzania. It's still interesting and entertaining though, to watch Tanzanians and Kenyans go at each other on social media, over who "owns" the iconic Kiswahili love song "Malaika."
Since 1960, many covers of "Malaika" have been done by music artistes from different parts of the world, including covers by Miriam Makeba of South Africa, Afro-Caribbean music group "Boney M," Angelique Kidjo of Benin, and Harry Belafonte of America. Miriam Makeba's covers of "Malaika" are among the most popular, and as a matter of fact, many people are under the impression that "Malaika" is a South African song. When Miriam Makeba was an exile from South Africa's Apartheid regime, one of the places she lived for many years, was Tanzania, which is where she learned to speak and sing in Kiswahili.
"Malaika's" lyrics and instrumentation are basic and harmonious, and my humble request is that you guys put together a global music collaboration of "Malaika," as best as you can and as best as possible, such as the great global collaboration above of "Waiting on the world to change."
I know these projects cost money and involve logistics, and I will fully understand if you guys are unable to schedule "Malaika" right now in your ongoing projects.
Guys, please however put "Malaika" in your "to do list," in your "in tray," for future consideration. Do something for us please here, not just in East Africa actually, but in East and Central Africa, where Kiswahili has speakers in Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), as well as some parts of Malawi, Zambia and Mozambique. Actually one of the things that helped the spread of Kiswahili was Julius Nyerere's Tanganyika of 1961 to 1964, and Julius Nyerere's Tanzania of 1964 to 1985, when different liberation movements from different parts of Africa were hosted in Tanzania.
With the Best of Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 24th November 2023.
Oooh, yes, I second this request for a version of Malaika! I am from Belgium and this has always made me want to learn more about the people and cultures in the lands we used to occupy. Malaika is a song I first heard when I was well into my twenties, and it is a beautiful, enchanting song. My favorite version is by Angélique Kidjo, I always hear the waves of water in her version. There is also a beautiful Dutch translation by Belgian singer Ronny Mosuse that I adore, who sings it as if it's a lullaby, he recorded it for a charity he supports that works with children in central Africa. It would be a delight to hear artists from all over the world sing this!
@@elkeve2742I hear you Elke, and thank you.
Be the change you want to come. Thank you PFC. 🙏One Love. ❤☮️
¡Qué bello trabajo, y qué maravilloso mensaje! ¡Gracias por el esfuerzo , Plaiyng for Change!
It's up to each one of us to bring about change in our lifestyles...consume less and know that ALL life on this lovely planet and in the universe is interconnected..it's not a hierarchy but a circle of interconnectedness where each link has equal value🙏🌌🌍💚
One Love
Tula is timeless, what a treasure.
I am blown away, and yes, hopefully the internet can help build a change. A beautiful video, and what most of us want. If it was as simple as each of us putting in $1, $5, $10, $20, I think the problem would be solved tomorrow. Unfortunately, I think there's more to it...
Si no fuera por todas las maravillas q tiene este nuestro mundo no estaríamos aqui.
Cuidemos y amemos a este nuetro planeta q nos da la vida🙏
I love playing for change. Every song is better thsn the original. But i must say this one did not live up to my expectations. The original is such a beautiful song with such deep meaning. Im sorry this one couldn't live up to it. Bless up.
как всегда на высшем уровне👏👍
How is it possible for all of these musicians to be in tune and perfect tempo from all over the world?
Bravooooo !!!! La Música suena alegre en todo el mundo y en todo instrumento.... siempreee!!!!
It’s not the people who need to change, we’re all the same, it’s the thugs that lead us as a reflection of their own crass self interests.
Music like this proves we are as one, the outliers being the ones who can’t hear the miracle for war drums beating in their ears.
GLOBAL ANTHEM
WE Are One… Each species has a sacred place and role to play… There is only One Earth and shared future today.
Our Rights Collectively: Safety, clean air, and clean water! Liberty and freedom for All with benevolent justice.
Sacredness is our common benevolent commitment and action to an ideal, life, lessons, and places… Respecting them All.
Grace is a state of benevolent compassion and empathy for all that lives, each equal yet not the same, any may show us The Way.
Love is sharing; nation, state, and community, The Same! We are All One in the web of life we weave… What’s done to one affects us all.
Love is sweet and The Way for us All! Devotion to Peace and Love keeps us from the fall. Surrender to the Earth, not to be conquered, but cherished through creative thought.
Our story is mutually celebrated in Song.
I wish the media would give people like these the airtime instead of people like 45. Positive change the world is now everyone get involved be kind be mindful live in peace
Just love it when so many people come together
I love so much ! From Argentina🇦🇷❤ THANK YOU!!!❤
