this type of collaboration restores your faith in humanity
Love this! Also, The Band and The Staples singing The Weight for The Last Waltz documentary.
You two are beautiful human beings.
The Late Great Robbie Robertson. lovely, thank you!
Ringo Star is just plain cool.
I have found in my long life that there are more good people in the world than bad. The media seems to focus on the worst of what humans are capable of. Happiness and peace start inside of each one of us, and although it is often difficult if you look for the best in others, you will find it more often than not. Music proves that we can cross national and political boundaries.
The Band is a much needed reaction 🤘🤘
Need to do The Weight from The Last Waltz. Iconic.
Such an iconic tune, and playing for change did a good job with it. Robbie wrote the tune.
Ringo, “What key is it in Robby? …F-demented.” Fun to seem him still cutting up!
Gotta love Playing for Change.
Considered one of the best songs ever written. Check out The Band and The Staples Last Waltz version.
You ARE bringing people together! Spreading such a peaceful message in such a special relationship. You are role models for that. Really!
Doing more than you realize!
🎵🎶🎵" Music is a Universal Language,of Love,,Peace TOGETHERNESS " ❤✌️
Playing for a Change is such a beautiful brilliant concept. Music is the universal language, and these wonderful songs reminds us We are all human beings together. You can hang anywhere in the world and be among friends if you love music
Music is a universal language but the music of today is just entertainment. This music went to a higher place and was able to touch people in a much deeper way. I saw Robbie Robertson and the Band 3 times and one of those times was when they were touring with Bob Dylan for the last time before they stopped touring as a group. The Band was such a great group and I don't know if many people these days realize how big an influence they had on music in the 60's 70's and right up till today. RIP Robbie. You gave us the greatest gift of all, the gift of music!
Thank you ever so much for playing this version of one of my late wife's favourite songs by the Band who we had seen three times in the late sixties and early seventies. Today is the third anniversary of my lovely lady's death and so much love and peace filled my heart not to mention the flood in my eyes when I listened to this classic just now
. Thank you.....peace and love
Music is the key to life. ❤
Beautiful song and beautiful reaction.
It was the writer of The Weight song -The late great Robbie Robertson 's son Sebastian - who came up with the idea for this wonderful rendition of a truly world class and everlasting tune . The song shall be as relevant and as fresh in another 50 years time as it is today , as the song is of such quality .....
I've watched this song and the varied reactions to it so many times now and I've struggled to find a way to describe exactly where the unique magic in it resides, so here goes. When you try to talk with someone who doesn't speak the same language(s) as you, you can't help but feel some sense of distance or alienation from them. You feel a bit more connected to someone who might speak a language that you do, but who does so with an unfamiliar accent that still renders it slightly alien feeling to you. Then there are the conversations you share with someone in your own shared native tongue, with all the familiar cadences and pronunciations and idioms that comfort you best on some visceral, instinctive level. This video took a language we all knew, music we "speak" fluently from half a century of familiarity with this song, and let people who might seem strange and distant and exotic "speak" it with us so familiarly and intimately. They all became old friends I'd just never met the moment they came on screen. The world and it's differences shrunk to insignificance for a few short minutes, but I felt my family grow new and wider.
Great pick guys💪🏼
Wait a minute Chester!!!!
Man what a sound they had 🎶🎶🎶🎸🥁. 💞. Guys, Ringo was a good friend of the late Maurice Gibb. He was one of the Bee gees. The Bee gees in the hat. Y'all said he was your favorite. Ringo & Maurice lived next door to each other & sung together & made crazy videos. I love Ringo & you 2 🥰🥰
Love this!
Next? Maybe Playing for Change "Listen to the Music" would be great and please also think about The Band & Staple Singers playing "The Weight" from The Last Waltz.
Thank you for being wonderful reactors & greetings from Canada
Getting to know you and kind, loving people like you two give me a little hope. You guys are ambassadors for a better world. Thank you so much.
You both echo the ‘I don’t know’ mantra but the rest of us here KNOW that you KNOW!
I love this so much, makes one feel good, thank you for this reaction.
I loved every second of that. Your contributions to this moment as well.❤
One instrument looked like an Oud. The oud is a Middle Eastern short-neck lute-type, pear-shaped, fretless stringed instrument, usually with 11 strings grouped in six courses, but some models have five or seven courses, with 10 or 13 strings respectively.
Awesome ❤❤❤
I love, love these Playing for Change videos! Each one does make my heart smile. Thanks so much with helping to spread such great collaboration.
This reminds me of the Rockin' 1000 video where artists in Italy played Foo Fighters Learn To Fly. That video is simply amazing. I watch it whenever I need to restore my faith in humanity. It makes one realize that we are all more alike than different. I would LOVE to see your reaction to it.
You MUST review this same song (The Weight) performed by The Band (Robbie Robertson was the lead guitar in that group) and The Staples (also known as The Staple Singers) in the great Martin Scorsese documentary film "The Last Waltz" about The Band's final concert. The entire film is one that you two should watch, as many of the greats - some that you have reviewed - appear as guest performers (Neil Young, Van Morrison, Neil Diamond, Eric Clapton, Dr. John, Muddy Waters, Joni Mitchell. "The Weight" is near the end of the film, added to showcase both the talents of The Staples and the true artistry of The Band. It is one of the greatest concert videos ever made!
The editing for these playing for change videos, is amazing. If you do another one you should check out Ripple, A Grateful Dead tribute.
"The Weight" is an original song by the Canadian-American group the "Band" that was released in 1968. This is a great rendition of the song & great collaboration by artists from around the world. Proves that Music is a universal language.
Fantastic production! Always liked verse 2:
"I picked up my bag, I went lookin' for a place to hide;
When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin' side by side.
I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, let's go downtown."
She said, "I gotta go, but m'friend can stick around."
You guys are two beautiful souls...you have such honest reactions....keep listening...Love you guys. Try.... Cat Stevens....Boy with a Moon and Star on his head. An amazing song and story. Peace.
I haven’t seen one of these collaborations yet. Must have missed your first one.(will seek it out)
This is amazing song and the collaboration is very special!
That was beautiful! Next time I'm low I'll try this medicine..
Go watch “The Last Waltz” It’s a MUST for any music lover! I’m an old Canadian guy who grew up within 40 miles of 4 of the 5 members of The Band. I was a few years younger than them, but during a 40 year career in the Canadian Music biz, I met and knew all of them. They’re one of the most important music groups of all time!
Peace
It is in my will that this video is played at my funeral.
i got emotional too
Lucas Nelson, son of Willie Nelson ..and a very good artist...has band. " Lucas Nelson and the Real"...
Check out playing for change's version of Bob Marley war
There's a two-part video on the making of this video. Also, Bob Marley's house is featured in this video.
More playing for change
The proper one to play with be the recorded version from The Band's Big Pink or from the movie The Last Waltz. With Mr. Levon Helm singing in both of them. Sorry. May Levon rest in peace.
How about some Joni Mitchell😊 from the album Court & Spark
This Was Recorded During Covid Lockdown.
I’m not a Patron member so nothing to donate, but if you want to find great pleasure go back to the very beginning of Playing for Change. The first release was Stand by Me. I have been a member since the beginning - 2005. There a couple of folks in this video who have played since the start. Merman and Roberto Luti. You could probably do a reaction every week for the next year because there are so many great songs the have done.
Willy Nelsons son Lucas was even in there.
Marcus King the first singer in the video is our hometown blues guy. Greenville S.C. You should check out some of his music here on UA-cam.
✌️❤
Levon Helm Live Is The Only Version For Me ... Sorry ... 😮😮😮😮

Suggestion for you to check out Bob Dylan “things have changed”
Try "Ripple" by the same group.
Oh Yeah….Beagles Rule😀
Do yourself a favor and play the original version from the Last Waltz with the full "BAND" and the Staple Singers. This version is anemic elevator music compared the original!
Simply, Take a load for someone.
Love your reaction.. but please.. don't bother with those "auto lyrics".. they're almost always wrong.. and sometimes hilariously so (using "lord" instead of "load"... lol) look forward to more reactions from you..!
Fantastic song and reaction and I love the reviewers. But am I the only person alive who despises these AI lyrics?
