"Morning Has Broken" is Cat Stevens' reworking of a 1931 children's hymn, a praise of life and creation, like most of his songs , worth a listen.
Can be found in many church Hymnals
@@mikewinters6499 One of the first songs I learned on the acoustic guitar! It's a beautiful song!
Another vote for this
My wife and I had it performed at our wedding back in 1977.
Those last notes on the guitar are truly beautiful...
On some versions they end quickly and fade out fast. This version seemed to keep it louder a little bit longer. I agree with you wholeheartedly about the beauty of the last few notes. Really ended the song well. I could have used a few more seconds.
There's something vaguely medieval about it. Like Robin Hood strolling through Sherwood beeches on a sunny day, with Alan-a-Dale strolling along behind, strumming a song for all the wide green world.
So many great songs from Cat Stevens. Very popular in the 70's.
He has such a sweet voice. Especially in the song wild world.
Just a magnificent artist. Unique, meaningful, poetic.
Glad they did the studio version. Next song, Into White
....and supports the murder of Salmon Rusdie
Natalie Merchant (with 10,000 Maniacs) made it to the charts doing a cover of this song. Sitting here with my vinyl collection of; Teaser and the Firecat, Tea for the Tillerman, Mona Bone Jakon. Timeless.
...this is the song that put 10,000 Maniacs on the map...but she( Natalie) would not perform it live because of Cat's (Yosef Islam) condemnation of Salmon Rushdie's book " Satanic Versus", and his support of the the 3 million dollar bounty on his (Rushdie's) head. I have seen 10,000 Maniacs several times. When the audience requested "Peace Train", Natalie would say that they have many great songs written by them (her), and she did not want to sing a song written by one that promotes murder for ransom (to paraphrase)....fast forward to 2022, an attempt was made on Rushdie's life last month, he was stabbed repeatedly, but survived...the attacker, will not receive bounty, his name "Hadi Matar"...I will allow you to assess the various ironies for yourself..."PeaceTrain"...please
@@raymo6795 Ahhh...but I can still remember what COULD have been, right?
Another vote for this as well
Hold on to that, they dropped the song from the LP decades ago.
My all time favourite album is Teaser and the Firecat by Cat Stevens and this is one of the best tracks on the album, along with 'How Can I Tell You".
An all time favorite. How Can I Tell You is true greatness. ❤🥰❤
Yes, and “The Wind” & “If I Laugh” ❤️
One of the best singer songwriter of his generation!!
I grew up in the time of peace and love, now it's the time of I and me, greed, I'm just sorry I lived to see this country lose its heart and compassion for their fellow man.
Don’t know what country you grew up in.But in the United States.Back during The so called(Peace & Love era)There was as now -racial/gender and other forms of discrimination.All over the country.And greed abound.You must have been living in a dream world.
@@gregoryadkins2213 compared to today, the 60s & 70s were a time of peace & caring, despite what you may think, people did look out for eachother more so then today
One of my most absolute favorite songs ❤ what's not to like about it
Tea for the Tillerman is such a classic album. Another one that mom had in her amazing LP collection at one time. My time machine would go back and save it
His parents ran a store in the theatre district of London and as a boy he would spend his nights up on the roof listening to all the musicals going on in the neighbourhood. Such an interesting musical chrysalis.
Anything Cat Stevens touched is magic. He is an amazing song writer.
Steven Demetre Georgiou ( of London, England) commonly known as Cat Stevens now known as Yusuf Islam this song is a rallying cry for peace for the country and world to right itself by coming together to from community for the greater good.
Unless of course he disagrees with you and wants you murdered.
Brad’s line; “almost about to go to church, but not really” cracked me up! Perfect!
Brad I'm very impressed to have witnessed the growth of your musical journey and understanding
Steve Smith --- I agree with you. I commented on that about Brad just recently as he admitted to beginning to like Led Zeppelin more as he listens to more of there songs. But his growth, or expansion obviously isn't limited to Zeppelin but music overall.
He's an amazing artist! He has many great songs! Love your reaction!
Cat stevens “morning has broken “ is gospel and sang in many churches
"Morning Has Broken" is a Christian hymn first published in 1931. It has words by English author Eleanor Farjeon, great cover by Steven's, but not written by him.
50 years later and we are still hoping.
This was a hit during the Vietnam War years, the heart of the Cold War. You're right, a very unique sound and a bit hit for Cat Stevens. He had few.
Music from the 70's didn't come much better than this. Cat Stevens wrote some beautiful songs, especially on his earlier albums such as Tea for the Tillerman and Teaser and the Firecat.
It's great to see when you two both like a song and get synchronised microsway going.
We so badly need music like this TODAY!
Probably not,tho....
The message is awesome, but the messenger is in question.
@@raymo6795 ?
There is music like this TODAY! Just search for it a tiny little bit .
@@vrvaughn in an interview on 60 minutes, Yosef Islam (Cat Stevens) stated that he that Salmon Rushdie was an Infidel, and the 3 million dollar price on his head was appropriate. Cat disappeared from music in the late 70s when he converted to Islam, but reappeared in the late 90s. In later interviews, he has attempted to retract or temper his comments given on 60 minutes. I have heard nothing from Cat about the recent attack on Salmon Rushdie by a an Islamic radical “Hadi Matar”, when Rushdie was stabbed repeatedly, but survived, so Matar will not be able to collect the ransom,which has been in place since 1988, when Rushdie’ book came out…that is why I question the messenger.
So powerful. So beautiful.
The artist is the pioneer that paint the new horizon that they want us to head towards and that is what Cat Stevens was doing in this song and it was a beautiful perfect horizon that he painted.
Optimistic realist...me too. Gotta keep HOPE alive. Don't give up. Love you both. You'd make any parent proud. 👍❤🤙💋
Loved Cat Stevens, I was sad when he shocked the world and left music. He came back when he was inducted into RRHOF
This song makes me smile.
I saw him in about 1970/71 at the Redcar Jazz Club, in the North East of England, with Lindisfarne as the warm up act. There was just him and acoustic guitarist Alun Davies, with Cat on acoustic guitar also. This was just after releasing his album ‘Tea for the Tillerman’.
Harold and Maude is a great movie with a Cat Stevens sound track. Well worth a watch.
Here Comes My Baby, Moon Shadow and Sad Lisa are also great songs by Cat Stevens.
This song, Dancing in the Moonlight and a few others are just so unapologetically joyous and open-hearted that you just want to dance and smile. Anybody who's too cool for a song like this is just sad in my book.
One of many great songs by Cat Stevens. He had a couple of the great albums of the early 70s
This song always makes me happy
Cat Stevens borrowed from the Greek folk music of his heritage. So, the instrumental sound and the hand claps are from that tradition.
I love Cat Stevens music from a long time ago. Didn't realise he had Greek heritage though, and that some of his sound draws from that heritage. Thanks for informing that.
@@johnburton4577 He was born Steven Demetre Georgiou; 21 July 1948
I grew up listening to Cat in the 70’s, so many great songs, each one better than the last. What I love about this song, if you just listen to the cadence of the music and don’t concentrate on the lyrics it totally mimics the sound of riding on a train
Cat Stevens also had those interesting rhythms in his music. An amazing artist, it was such a sad time for the musical world when he gave up making music. Thankfully he unretired.
We sure need that Peace Train up here in Canada these days... Great song by Cat Stevens!!! I own a "greatest hits" CD of some of his more well known songs. I tell ya, they are magic and poetic. Hopefully you'll listen to his cover of Another Saturday Night...one of my favourite versions of that song.
Just don't disagree with him......he'll put a price on your head!
You guys will become hippies yet listening to all these 60's and 70's classics!☮
I wrote the first English speech given by a Sth Korean poltician to other politicians and ambassadors on North Korea, since the war ended many decades ago. That politican ended up being the primary advisor to the President as the North and South leaders finally met several years ago. The entire speech was based around the day a peace train would be rolling from North Korea through China, Russia and beyond. The speech captured what came to my mind as I listened to this song. A great song that provided great imagery for my brain to cling to.
We need more music like this now in our divisive times
Raised my parents on this music and they turned out OK
Wow.. getting some significant sway out of Brad... good one! 70s classic!
Fucking brilliant song. Long lost art form, if in fact anybody but him ever found it. Great, great song. Definitely one where "that's different" really applies.
Every one come on in kick back and enjoy some 70s Greatness When music like this was all over the airways
Simply my favourite Cat Stevens song....glorious....he's amazing
The 1971 live is the absolutely the best of Cat Stevens. My personal favorite is I love my dog.
He has such an urgency, passion & anticipation in his voice that is brought to life in his songs. He could bring a heartbeat to any lyrics.
“Tea For The Tillerman” album.🥰👏
His best song!
could you ever imagine that these artists of the 60's and 70's were setting a stage for something coming in humanity. the true beauty is undenialable
Grew up listening to Cat Stevens and I'm still discovering his amazing music. Peace Train is probably my favourite tune of his so far. If only..... 😍
You made me cry. Such beautiful memories of a wonderful time in my life. His song Father and Son will dig into your heart. This man's lyrics have given me peace for over 40 years and are as fresh as day one.
He is such a spiritual singer
Now you guys should do Love Train by the O’Jays if you haven’t.
My mom shared her love or beautiful art and music including this artist ❤
I was in love with Cat Stevens,lol, him and James Taylor. Sweet tune, I remember it well. You might want to take a listen to "Hard Headed Woman", "Sad Lisa","Can't Keep It In", all really great. Thanks Brad and Lex
I love all of Cat Stevens where do the children play Tea for the Tillerman so many others my grandkids loves Cat Stevens
Man, this song brings back good memories! My father, born in 1928, was NOT a rock fan at all. But he loved Cat Stevens, especially his "Tea for the Tillerman" album. He would often play it on Saturday mornings while he cooked bacon, eggs, and pancakes for us (six kids) for breakfast. I really enjoyed those days!!!
What a great memory to have as a keepsake. Hummmm... made me hungry. Think I'll make breakfast !!!!
Oh man I loved this.
I couldn't stop smiling the entire time.. getting to listen to Cat Stevens while seeing how much Lex vibed with it.
yeah, this was just what I needed today.
there was a generation that stood up and demanded peace. and then they went on with their lives and became the people who we warned ourselves about.
A life affirming truly beautiful song
this sound was abundant in the early 70s and very comforting, i remember going on long trips and listening to this and other artists Jim Croce, Gordon Lightfoot, Harry Chapen, James Taylor, Jackson Brown and others with this sound to pass the time, and always had a good feeling when i got to the destination, this sound started in the late 60s and continues now with Artists like Tracy Chapman and others...
Everything he does is amazing. 💕
The acoustic guitar ending is so beautiful. Ya have to crank it up as the song fades. This song is the closer on "TATF".
Superb song.
I gotta say, the songs that were popular when I was growing up were all about love and fellowship and peace and happiness. Simple pleasures. Think about what the young people are being exposed to today.
yeah, simple-minded Ray....guess what, they are being exposed to the crap that their parents and grandparents created, designed, marketed and sold to their offspring.....so maybe just stfu
Stark contrast huh
.. it's really quite sad
He is a total hypocrite! For all the Cat Steven apologists, this is a verbatim excerpt from the interview where he called for THE DEATH of Salman Rushdie - NOT ONCE BUT TWICE!
There can only be three conclusions:
1. The reports are false
2. He is, and always was a hypocrite
3. This is what Islam does to people.
On 21 February 1989, Cat Stevens (Yusuf Islam addressed students at Kingston Polytechnic (now Kingston University) in London about his conversion to Islam and was asked about the controversy in the Muslim world and the fatwa calling for Salman Rushdie's execution. He replied, "He must be killed. The Qur'an makes it clear - if someone defames the prophet, then he must die”.
Two months later on the Geoffrey Robertson’s Australian TV show he said this:
“Robertson: You don't think that this man deserves to die?
Y. Islam: Who, Salman Rushdie?
Robertson: Yes.
Y. Islam: Yes, yes.
Robertson: And do you have a duty to be his executioner?
Y. Islam: Uh, no, not necessarily, unless we were in an Islamic state and I was ordered by a judge or by the authority to carry out such an act - perhaps, yes.
[Some minutes later, Robertson on the subject of a protest where an effigy of the author is to be burned]
Robertson: Would you be part of that protest, Yusuf Islam, would you go to a demonstration where you knew that an effigy was going to be burned?
Y. Islam: “I WOULD HAVE HOPED IT’D BE THE REAL THING.”
الله ليس عظيما
Most is pure crap today.
Cat Stevens greatest hits is a must if you dig his music. Not a bad song
Cat Stevens is awesome! Just about every one of his songs are great! Thanks, cats!
Explore his catalog!!
I've been waiting on that peace train since 1971....
Check out the Live version too!
You need to listen to the live version of this song ..it's from a concert from back in the 70's. It's a very dynamic performance....maybe on a second-take sometime..that being said this song from his classic album Teaser & The Firecat .. closed the album.. and I can remember the disc jockey's at the time always playing it with all the other peace songs.or anti-war songs in a set list.. Unfortunately, many people don't like Cat or Yusaf because of his political stance on certain people but this man I believe is probably the most insightful singer ( at least British singer) of his time.. .and hope you explore more of him.. great review..
How Can I Tell You? great love song, by him
And If l Laugh.
You should watch a video where you can see him perform. Love Cat Stevens❤ first concert I ever went to in the 70s.
Read the words to this and it made me think of your journey as you two become three. Take care😊
Had every cat stevens album thru Jr high. This one of his biggest hits, if not the biggest.
"Now I've been crying lately, thinking about the world as it is. Why must we go on hating, why can't we live in bliss". One of the best lyrics ever, with that loud chord in the middle, gah that's bliss to me 💯💯💯♥️
YOU CAN'T IDOLIZE SOMEONE WHO ADVOCATES MURDER!!!
Love your reactions. Always like this Cat Stevens hit, and more. I would like to make an obscure request of a reaction. Former Monkee, Michael Nesmith formed a group, Michael Nesmith & the First National Band, and had somewhat of a hit, "Joanne". I never thought it got the air time or recognition that it deserved. I doubt this has been requested, but I think you would enjoy it and we would enjoy your reaction.
Cat stevens is brilliant ‘ moonshadow’ was always my favourite, but to be honest he had 3 brilliant albums of fantastic music in the late 60’s early 70’s one after the other, Matthew and Son, Tea for the Tillerman and Teaser and the Firecat.
“Tea for the Tillerman”, the shortest, most amazing song you will ever hear.
A great follow up would be Playing for Change's version of this song. Released on You Tube late last year. Brings it to the world and include Yusuf Cat Stevens.
If you like this one by Cat Stevens, you should check out another of his songs called "Miles from Nowhere" It was released as the "B" side of the "Wild World" 45 back in 1974.
Boy! Has pop music changed in 50 years! (so has the world) Cat Stevens albums were always very well produced, usually with excellent audio quality. Cat Stevens insisted on it. The proof is the fact that songs like this still hold up today. BTW Brad, your observations are spot on.
Haha one of my favs you guys pick some great songs to jam too bravo 👏
Love Cat Stevens! Just watched the Peace Train hall of fame performance. He looked and sounded great if you want to check it out. ✌️🚂
My first car when i turned 16 in 1979 was a 72 Roadrunner. It came with a Cat Stevens tape stuck in the 8 track tape player. So it was Cat Stevens or just the roar of that 440 magnum.
Excellent!
Beautiful song.
Where do the Children Play was my favorite song by him! But this one is a close second!
This is Cat Stevens. He cannot be boxed into a type of music 😎❤️🇧🇻
Brad Lightens Up 👏👏👏👏
the movie "remember the titans" introduced me to this song.
this song makes ya feel good,huh? makes you feel like the future might not be so bad- if everyone joins together and just be happy
That percussive clapping reminds me of the sound of a train clattering over the rails. Those of us who remember riding on passenger trains may be familiar with it. Placing this in the song -- genius.
Good vibes...Cat couldn't miss in the early 70es 🐺
Cat Steven's had a unique tone in his voice. His voice was recognizable right away in a new song.
So glad you like Cat Stevens. Morning has Broken is a must listen, his best song imo.
It was an optimistic time. The 80s hadn’t happened yet.
My very first concert, almost 50 years ago.
