Magical! I trekked to Everst Base camp in 2007 and on the way back down to Kathmandu , at Namche Bazaar, went to a cyber cafe there (yes, in Namche!) and downloaded the tab music for this song. Been playing it ever since even though I´m a few years older than Yusuf. Great to see he´s still performing it
Loved this song in high school, loved the entire album. I was almost afraid to hear this version because I thought it might be so much poorer, but Yusuf Cat does it again, a wiser, more tender rendition, just as good but different of course because decades have passed. I am so thankful to hear music like this. So thankful.
I was there, also -- what a magical night. I was hoping that a video of this song would end up on UA-cam. I couldn't bear to record more than a few small clips of songs because I wanted to soak in the full vibe of the show. So thank you for posting everything!
"Katmandu" I sit beside the dark Beneath the mire Cold grey dusty day The morning lake Drinks up the sky Katmandu I'll soon be seeing you And your strange bewildering time Will hold me down Chop me some broken wood We'll start a fire White warm light the dawn And help me see Old satan's tree Katmandu I'll soon be touching you And your strange bewildering time Will hold me down Pass me my hat and coat Lock up the cabin Slow night treat me right until I go Be nice to know Katmandu I'll soon be seeing you And your strange bewildering time Will keep me home

Seriously probably the best song in the whole world, is just so nice to hear.
Sempre magico Cat❤
Im from Kathmandu! And everytime I return back i have this song in me head
Kathmandu is one of the most legendary city in the world. Its every thing that he has described. :)
Yes
Oh the many times I've been in a dark room by myself, listening to this gem of a song. No one writes like this!
The melody and lyrics reflect a beautifully painted song. A favorite of both mine and now my son's.
Much Love and Respect to Cat ❤
From Kathmandu, NEPAL

Bhai maile timlai aaja yo geet ko link pathako xu. Timile yo geet kaile suneko ho? Laamo
Quel plaisir d'entendre de nouveau cette superbe chanson apaisante.
A true spiritual moment. Amazing Cat and Yusuf ... Thank you for posting this video :)
You're very welcome, Marie-Anne. I'm happy you enjoyed it :)
Lord Stevens. A faith difference is nothing regarding your talent. You will allways be my crush in music ! Whatever your faith is.
With all my love !

"Katmandu"
I sit beside the dark
Beneath the mire
Cold grey dusty day
The morning lake
Drinks up the sky
Katmandu I'll soon be seeing you
And your strange bewildering time
Will hold me down
Chop me some broken wood
We'll start a fire
White warm light the dawn
And help me see
Old satan's tree
Katmandu I'll soon be touching you
And your strange bewildering time
Will hold me down
Pass me my hat and coat
Lock up the cabin
Slow night treat me right
until I go
Be nice to know
Katmandu I'll soon be seeing you
And your strange bewildering time
Will keep me home
Very nice song😻
The man....the legend...
This song and Tom Rush's version of "Urge For Going" are my two favorite songs to listen to by the fireplace on a chilly autumn or winter's day.
Delightful! ❤️
Lindo demais!😍🙌🎶🙏🌠
Still a brilliant musician!

Ghar ko yaad aayo yar
I was there last night. Great show. Thanks for posting! You did this with your phone?
Yep. I recently got a new S7 (fortunately not the S7 Note! :) and am pretty happy with the quality of the camera so far
yes! with my phone..
Was that in Kathmandu?
No, it was in Philadelphia. Katmandu is the title of the song.
I wish it was !!!
thumbs down to the dummy who would rather play his justin bieber cds!!!!,,,,,haaa
Ha I was just trying to imagine who that lone thumbs downer was. And thanks so much for posting this! Amazing.
Thank you for the comments and I'm happy you enjoyed the video :)
Best better than today’s dumb music. The ‘60-‘70’s are the best! Won’t occur again. Like the ‘20’30’s jazz
E ele toca tudo isso sem o mindinho.😱
Dedos mágicos :)
Yusuf pourquoi tu ne chantes pas la Mecque ?
I doubt he's reading this 😀
cat st...........................no ; yu..................................
