Listening to my own language Kiswahili being recognised as an art at the eyes of the world really gives my heart joy. Love from Kenya
Your language is beautiful and is beyond art. Thank you for sharing as it reaches the west coast of California and Ohlone indigenous lands.
I don't understand a word of it, but it's an astoundingly beautiful and melodic language. Love and respect from Lebanon.
❤
You can see the joy on Christopher's face when he is conducting, this is the real musician we need.
😭😭😭😭😭😭 So beautiful! I wish I had been there in person
Need to get myself to one of these concerts :')
I will NEVER get tired of you composing Baba Yetu, somehow it's always makss me smile uncontrollably! Hands down, still my favorite Civilization opening to this day.
Sogno di volare in my book too
CIV 4 the game of my childhood
This is what true music is and always will be. Praise to Christopher tin
Fitting that the most likes I have ever got on something came from what I’m most passionate about.
@@DearestGrimm the more positive your comment is, oftentimes, it will get more likes.
Praise to the Most High, the source of all.
The diversity of everyone on the stage is a wonderful symbol of people can unite and create something amazing. This is the one video that my one year old consistently claps with, sometimes he even raises one hand and shouts 'ya'!
I still remember the moment I first heard this song. Our school was hosting a choir festival and my group just finished. We were leaving the concert hall when the next choir started singing this. I remember no longer having control of my body or where my feet were going. The music literally engrossed me and carried me back to the hall and I just stood by the door with my jaw to the floor like 😦. I’ve never had something move me to tears like this song did at that moment. I was in tears by the end of it and I was probably the loudest in the room clapping and cheering ❤
This is a beautiful story. I can absolutely see how this piece can do that to you
Same, I'm on the train listening to this and can't handle myself at all😂
As an African ! This just makes my soul soar !😭🥹❤️
Everyone looks like they're having so much fun performing this, including you! Beautiful performance!
The man with the biggest musical gift to ever exist ! Christopher is single-handedly saving humanity and he doesn’t even know it ! I’m forever obsessed with Baba Yethu !!
Humanity, despite all their differences, singing together in one voice, reaching for the sky. Even if these moments are fleeting, I appreciate that the world has people like Christopher Tin to compose them in the first place.
This piece never fails to uplift and give me chills. Thank you for this beautiful art, Christopher Tin.
This is so beautiful!😭😭😭😭😭
Honoured to have performed this at my high school! Thank you for bringing joy, life, and light across the world!
Absolutely amazing. I would have loved to be in that audience.
What Romeo and Juliet is to Shakespeare, what Pride and Prejudice is to Jane Austen…is what Sound of Music is to Rodgers and Hammerstein…is what Into the Woods is to Sondheim…is what Baba Yetu is to Christopher Tin. Legendary pieces of art that became synonymous with its artist, and never seem to get old and actually age like the finest wine.
I love this piece with every fiber of my being ❤️❤️❤️
Chris, does it ever get old to conduct? I can only hope not…
Christopher will be remembered for the years to come, and Baba yetu as one master piece of humanity. In terms of how it connects you to our ancestors and the origins of humanity doesn't exist anything better than this.
Your pieces are so beautiful and touch human nature so deeply that they feel like they've always been here. Doesn't matter in which language they are, whether they are or aren't prayers to a specific god, doesn't matter. They transcend our differences and bring us together. Thank you Mr. Tin for your innumerable gifts to humanity
This is the most beautiful prayer ever. This is powerful.
He's like a mad scientist. There's that unhinged, passionate look at seeing his work come alive.
Beautiful.
For some reason I always like the studio cut of this better. I think it reminds me of all the hours I spent weeping in front of Civilization IV's title screen. Just something about the animated day/night cycle of Earth's surface, lights of cities visible in the night, with this song that pierces my heart.
God me too. I swear half my hours in civ 4 were just stating at that screen with the music on
the game of my childhood
One of the greatest composers of our generation. This music never fails to stir ones soul. Just amazing x
..
My high school choir did this both in junior and senior year and goodness me you do not understand how hyped I was when I saw this song in our repertoire. Nothin but fond memories attached to this song.
SAME it brought the vibes every timeeeee!!
Truly amazing!
CRISTPHER TIN!IM YOUR BIGGEST FAN^^Make more of these!
I hope you win this year’s Grammy Christopher!
Look how happy Christopher is
I am feeling this song more than i am hearing it!! Yhoooooo!
Senhores, falo aqui do Brasil, tenho 64 anos e apresentei está oração em cantata ao meu netinho de 1ano e 2 meses, que ao ouvi- la movimentou seu corpinho como se estivesse sendo envolvido e embalado por energias amorosas. Ele simplesmente " para pra ouvir " e sua pequenina alma se encanta.
Eh lindo de se ver.
Phenomenal. Elevated Civilization the game, and the real-world civilization.
We need another Baba Yetu for Civilization VII. Sogno di Volare was great. It was bold and adventurous; wonderous about what awaits us if we take that next step forward. But Baba Yetu perfectly captured the heart and soul of human civilization. It was filled with optimism and reverence, blaring triumphantly as if all of human history was on parade before our eyes. All while selflessly casting off the glory and giving it to the spirit of the father of all of mankind and being sung in the language of the people who live where the very footsteps of our first ancestors are forever etched in stone. Perfection.
since listing to the song for the first time when civ 4 was released it never ceased to amaze me how good this song is
regularly brings tears to my eyes
Yep, it’s still an inspirational banger.
I still get chills every time I listen to Baba Yetu. Thank you Christopher!
Can't hold back the tears! Tears of JOY 🥹
This brings back great memories of playing Civilization with my Grandfather. I was just a kid and loved this song! I would sit on the main menu for hours just to listen to this amazing song! Thank you!
Mr tin i dont have Words just Tear tear tear
ASANTE SANA Mr. Christopher. By His grace I’ll make it to one of your concerts!
You look like you're having so much fun up there! I mean of course you would be, how can you not have fun when performing this song.
Yes
Still possibly my favorite musical piece ever created. Brings me so much joy every time I listen to it, and everybody seems to have fun singing and playing it here. Simply beautiful
Please come to Cardiff!
I cannot do what Christopher Tin does, but I can certainly recognize the total ELATION he's feeling in this moment with the talent all around him playing and singing his composition. The joy is definitely showing through. Bravo!
These are the type of chestra shows I'd attend in a heartbeat
I am the last person in the world that you would like to see dance, I'm handicap, cant walk easily, broken back, No rhythm, No elegance, don't know how to dancing at all and already did not know before my handicap, but when I hear this song I just want to stand on my fragile legs and dance, just closing my eye and let the music take me away.
OH OUI LE REMAKE MERCI BEAUCOUP
Beautiful!
So beautiful, I am in tears!
Love this song so much.
I love Thelonious Monk’s music cause I always hear joy & playfulness in it. From now on, when I describe the sound of joy and playfulness I will say: like in Christopher Tin’s music. Though in fairness there’s a special kind of warmness in your music that is as effective as a baby laughter to put a smile on everyone’s faces who listens to it. Thank you sir!
Simply amazing
Just wonderful
It's so beautiful it gives me goosebumps !! 🙏🙏💖💖💖💖💖Congratulations to all and thank you so much, Christopher Tin. 😊💕🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹😊🌹❤️
Beyond beautiful! 🎺

U have done so well Ch.Tin
masterpiece
Yesss BABA YETU !!!
I love this song !!! So good
I love this song Sir! Thank you so much for sharing with me :)
True masterpiece Simply AWESOME
The length of the original Civ4 version is about 3:28 while this is about 3:10. 18 seconds can make a huge difference it seems! The original seems very slow paced and calm in comparison to this one. I'd definitely recommend anyone to also listen to the original version if they like this one!
This is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard! goosebumps ALL over. I have always believed that African music is the most beautiful and moving and authentic music there is. I remember visiting Uganda at 15 and I will never forget the warmth of the people, how men were walking hand in hand on the street and they were so welcoming. Thank you for your gifts!!
Goosebumps. Every time. )
I love how the audience goes along with the song. Beautiful.
Christopher, don't wait for the next civilization to enjoy our ears please🙂
I cried for the beauty of this... thank you soooooo much for the good work.
We need a live rendition of Iza Ngomso🥰
I LOOOOOOVE LISTENING TO THIS SONG EVERYTIME❤❤❤❤❤ BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF MUSIC❤❤❤
Bravo, et merci.

I said it once, and i say it twice :,) this song is sooo goood, i played very few of CIv 4 and i cant remember much, BUT THIS SONG STAYS FOREVER :,D THANK YOU CHRISTOPHER TIN. regards from Bolivia :3
Pleasing to the ears😍😍😍😍 I mean I smile all through anytime I listen to this
Powerful🎶
Its soooo Gooooodddddddd thankyou Mr. Christopher Tin
I sure am glad that I don't have to decide which YT video of "Baba Yetu" I like best! You introduced me to the fabulous Soweto Gospel Choir - I've since heard them live & hope to attend their concerts whenever I can, so good! And the complete and utter joy of this video - yourself, the singers, the orchestra, and even the audience - the absolute best! Good luck in the Grammys this year Chris!
goosebumps
Hermoso, increíble Christopher Tin, Gracias por tu música maestro!
Lindoo!!! Maravilhoso!!!!
Wow..#Swahili #Kenya listening
Incroyable
Swahili language from east Africa Tanzania
For everyone wondering, just open your Bible to Matthew 6:9-13. That is the full song. Nothing added.
Can’t wait to do this wonderful song with you an SAHC!!!!’ ❤🎉
And people have the nerve to suggest video games can't be art.
Lindo demais 👏👏👏👏👏👏 impossível não se emocionar . 💖💖💖💖💖💖
Incantevole❤
Perfeito! ❤
Ficou lindo, muito emocionante!!💙
A really iconic song, but the lead singers in Cadogan Hall 2016 made far more goose bumps .. at least for me .. never the less AWESOME!
Ich liebe dieses Lied🥰
최고최고
so happy I got a notification
Still love how gentle the vocalist comes down at 1:47 and his facial expressions. I pretend to give those conductor cues all the time 😝
Apt observation.
Here comes our brother and fellow black Andre Boccelli, God bless u
Swahili is beautiful 👌🏽. EAC represented.
