All my love and respect to you , your family and all on Elcho lisland ❤
Gurrumul is aboriginal from a community in the Northern Territory of Australia. He composed songs about his homeland and people and sings in his local native language. He was born blind and taught himself to play a right-handed guitar upside down with his left hand. His voice is beautiful and soulful. You need to react to him singing solo. Also react to him singing with Blue King Snake, an aboriginal group. He has toured the world and was a hit in Europe. Enjoy his song Wiyathul. It highlights his vocal talent and unique voice. You don't have to know the words to appreciate it's beauty. RIP Dr. G. Delta Goodrem is a brilliant singer, musician and songwriter. Another great Australian talent you need to react to.
I love how a lot of overseas reactors are reacting to Great Australian Artists now - thx Charlie - they deserve the recognition. As an Aussie, I've been following you for a while and I especially love your "Aussie" reactions - keep 'em coming! This performance showcasing another Australian icon, Delta Goodrem, is hauntingly beautiful. Here's a bit of info on Gurrumul.
Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu (22 January 1971 - 25 July 2017), commonly known as Gurrumul and also referred to since his death as Dr G. Yunupingu, was an Aboriginal Australian musician of the Yolŋu peoples. A blind multi-instrumentalist, he played drums, keyboards, guitar (a right-hand-strung guitar played left-handed) and didgeridoo, but it was the clarity of his singing voice that attracted rave reviews. Yunupingu died at the Royal Darwin Hospital, Northern Territory on the 25 July 2017, aged 46. He had lived with liver and kidney damage for many years due to hepatitis B which he had contracted in childhood.
We can add he was a member of the aboriginal band Yothu Yindi from 1985 to 1992 , who had the hit song ' Treaty'..Gurrumul is the nephew of YY's lead singer Dr Mandawuy Yunupingu (deceased)😢. Gurrumul started the Saltwater Band in 92 and went on to produce his finest album 'Gurrumul' in 2008 to worldwide acclaim. He does not speak English , only his native Aboriginal tongue.
Dr Yunupingu (Gurrumul), Aboriginal Australian elder who sadly passed away about 6 years ago. He was born legally blind and plays a right handed guitar upside down as he’s left handed and that’s all that was available when he grew up in his tribal village. His voice wraps around your souls and takes you to a very special place. Delta certainly didn’t let him down either.
RIP Gurrumel to I forgot how amazing he was now I'm crying
I believe Gurrumul is singing in one of the many dialects of Yolŋu Matha, from the northeast Arnhem Land in northern Australia.
Australians First Nations had over 300 languages and many sub-dialects.. (we dont tend to call them "Aboriginie" any more)
This song gives me shivers.. Every time.. a mix of indigenous and the lyrics in English.. just sublime..
And Gurrumul is blind, and plays the guitar left handed, but not restrung left handed. He is self taught like that.
And mate GOOD reference to "Ladysmith Black Mombazo", very good comparison..
Brother gurrumul is amazing. Such a peaceful sound he has. He sings his is mobs language, one of the many indigenous dialects from australia. I don't even need to know what he's saying, I just love it. Nothing better than a walk through the bush with some gurrumul playing lightly in the background.
Every time I hear and watch this beautiful video I cry my eyes out! The beauty in Gurrumul's voice is breathtaking!
When Gurrumul was given his first guitar it was stringed for a right hand player, but he's left handed so he learnt to play with the strings upside down! Take a close look. Beautiful soul.
Hi Charlie! Thank you for this beautiful reaction! The gentleman is singing in his own indigenous language! I don’t the name of it! I just know this is SO beautiful it makes me cry! The gentleman is now deceased! He was blind and learnt to play the guitar! I’m not surprised that Delta is singing with him! She is a beautiful soul! Thank you again! Peace and Blessings from Australia.
I was lucky enough to see Gurrumul live in Melbourne about 10 years ago. My Mum really wanted to go, I knew of him and appreciated his music, but I didn’t know how it would go listening to a full concert in a language I didn’t understand, but he was so captivating on stage it felt like it was over so quickly. RIP to a beautiful soul x
Gurrumul is a Yolnu man, from Elcho Island in the Northern Territory. An Australian Indigenous singer, songwriter and musician; he plays the guitar, drums, keyboard and didgeridoo. He sings stories of his land in both Yolnu language and English; he was a former member Yothu Yindi(check out Treaty) and later Saltwater Band. Although he died on the 25th July 2017(aged 46), as of 2020 he has sold half a million records globally. His unique style of guitar playing is, that he plays a right-hand strung guitar left-handed; he was self taught.
Wonderful. Try Delta Goodram singing ‘Heavy’
Such a beautiful duet, you can feel the music in your soul
This makes me cry to watch. Rest in Peace Gurrumul ❤️❤️
Two of my favourite singers gurrumul and lady smith both are amazing
Thank you Charlie for your reaction to the talent of this beautiful man, taken from us too soon. When he was younger, he was in a terrific band that you may have heard, or heard of, Yothu Yindi.
Thank you for reminding me of Ladysmith Black Mambazo - I have a CD of theirs but haven't thought of playing it for the longest time.
So glad you watched this just incredible voices. Oh yeh Delta can belt it out as good as anyone.
Charlie you should really do more Delta Goodrem reactions. She is sooo sooo talented and underrated
Very underrated
No one has a clue except for him. There are over 120 aboriginal languages but they call themselves the First Nation even though that idea wasn’t even in their cromagnon brains
@@alijames180 actually there is or was over 300 languages.
Not sure what that has to do with Delta being underrated though?
So beautiful song sung to perfection it always gives me a feeling of coming home an belonging ❤❤❤
Yes he is blind and Aboriginal from. Australia ❤❤❤❤❤
I’m not a big fan of Delta, even though there is no doubt she has a great voice. But in this hauntingly beautiful duet, I think she is amazing. She uses a particular tone in her voice that blends beautifully with the dusky voice of Gurrumul. She lets him set the vibe and then builds her singing around his. Beautiful deference.
I love this so much, every time I watch this clip I get goosebumps. It makes me feel quite emotional and I don’t even understand the words. Their voices are angelic. Thankyou
Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunipingu was a blind aboriginal singer from the Northern Territory. He had the voice of an angel. You need to listen to some of his solo work. Delta combined beautifully here with him. He sadly died much too young in 2017
Delta has just got a brand new single out with her own record label Atled (Delta spelt backwards), called Back to your heart ❤
Mr G (this is a respectful way to say his name after his passing in 2017) has the most angelic voice ever. He was in the Aussie Band Yothu Yindi and won an ARIA (Australian Record Industry Award) for their song Treaty. He is from Galiwinku in Arnhem Land, which is a remote community around 530 km East of Darwin. He was blind from birth. The Indigenous language is not just one, used by all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders in Australia. They have multiple languages so it is quite complex, but from what I have researched, he sang with the language Djambarrpuynu or Yolngu and in English. RIP
Charlie, you have to check out Gurrumul- Wiyathul at the Enmore Theatre. So beautiful!
he was left handed and taught himself to play a guitar that was strung right handed. BTW in the name of cultural sensitivity you should include a warning that the video includes images of an Aboriginal person who has died
Well said about the warning Jeff.
Hi Jeff. Thanks for that. Can you expand on that for me a bit? Is it against aboriginal culture to see images of people that have passed then?
@@TheCharlieSmithChannel yes. In their culture, they won’t even say the name of a person who has passed.
Wow. Well you learn something new every day huh. Thanks again mate. I'll stick something in the description
Thank you Charlie for showing respect to culture and customs from other lands ❤
Oh yes, I know Ladysmith Black Mambazo, I was introduced by them collaborating on Paul Simon’s album Graceland, still one of my favourite albums. I agree with you on the magic that is made when two musical worlds collide, Bayini with Delta duetting with Gurramul is so special.
I absolutely love this, he was aging then, but it was still so special! Thank you, so authentic, I can never hear this song enough! 🥰👍😪
Rip gurramal legend brother
Respect Charlie. Very few people would think to warn of Culturally Sensitive content. Even Australians.
To be honest, I wasn't aware there was a sensitivity around dead aboriginal people until someone made me aware in the comments so I can't take full credit for that haha. Thanks for watching 👊🏼
He doesn't live in Australia, why would he know common customs of another country if he's never been there or even knew it was Australian. Don't bag someone because they weren't aware of something which could've been sensitive. He was told to react, he's being authentic by not looking up details and hes doing a 1st true reaction of a song. Don't throw country customs into stuff like this.
@@katherineschmidt2075 WTF?! I was congratulating him for being culturally sensitive! Ignorance is no excuse, be it when posting videos or replying to comments. I'm glad Charlie is not ignorant!
@@katherineschmidt2075 whoa! This was completely unnecessary. Steve is a Patron and valued supporter of this channel. He wasn't at all grilling me for this. Just informing me. Steve is the man. Please back off
Gurramul and Delta have many beautiful song please look them up❤❤love your reaction
Hauntingly beautiful and soulful. 🖤💛❤️
This performance makes me tear up every time. Absolutely transcendental.☮️
Watching again and loving it still even more thankyou
This is the best piece of music I’ve heard
Amazing! Yes he is blind, he is also right handed but for some reason taught himself to paly a right handed guitar upside down and left handed - maybe because he couldn't see the 'right' way to do it. He is a Yolgnu man from the top end of Australia, singing in his birth language. He is related to the lead singer of Yothu Yindi, Manduway Yunupingu.
I'm not sure how much you know about delta
She not just talented singer and writer
But a fighter as well she's had health issues during her life
Delt beat cancer in her teens and later on in life needed operation on her throat next to her vocal cords
After the operation she couldn't speak as half her tongue was paralysed from operation and thought never sing again let alone speak
But worked hard with voice physical therapy and learnt to speak and adapted her singing style so she could sing again
There's a documentary on it with her while learning to speak again
Delta also wrote a song about her struggles during it and think was first song after recovery
Thought you might be interested in a bit more of delta back ground
Cheers mate
Gurramull is singing in Yolngu (which is a tribe from North NT) which is the same langauage as "baker boy" who raps this language (see "Marryuna").
Gurrumull was the guitar player for "Yothu Unidi" back in the 90's (their biggest hit was "Treaty" - great song). Gurrumull's brother was the lead singer for Yothu Yindi.
Re his language. Galpu, Gumatj or Djambarrpuyngu, which are all languages of the Yolngu people of northeastern Arnhem Land.
This was one of my favourite reactions from you Charlie, it’s exactly how you described it as two worlds colliding and creating something so beautiful, RIP to Dr G but his beautiful songs live on
Hi Charlie by now I guess you haave worked out that Gurrumul Yunipingu was blind from birth played a right handed guitar upside down. He was born on an Islans off the coast near Darwin Called Elcho Island in the community of Galliwinku. I worked in the community of Galliwinku for a year or so the Yunipingu family is well known and a group of Yunupngu men had a hit with "Treaty"I think every youngster on the Island can play a guitar befor they can walk.
Please keep doing what your doing it's great to touch basewith your channel, it is one if not the best channel, I like pretty much every thing about your reactions to songs that people can relate to. Have a listen to the living years by mike and the mechanics. I belive every man that hears this song will moved by it
Cheers Charlie
WOW!!
Estamos aguardando seu react à audição de Gabriel Henrique cantando no AGT!
Bro he's first nation Australian speaking Aboriginal language
Indigenous Australian
😂❤❤❤ yeah just so so powerfull !!! There is something mystic in aboriginal culture like other culture. So much ❤❤❤
Haunting passionate performance. Tears but I have no idea of the meaning of these soulful aboriginal words.
GURRUMUL is an Aboriginal that has been blind from birth. He self taught the Guitar and being LEFT Handed plays it UPSIDE DOWN !!?!
He composes all his own Music about Aboriginal Themes including "The Dream Time".
I see him as a Prophet for Aboriginal peoples, and us.
Language is Yolngu or Yolŋu from Galiwin'ku (Elcho Island). He was blind, played a right handed guitar left handed. Bet you have heard a load more of his music. RIP Dr G Yunnupingu.
I love linguistics but Yolngu is an especially difficult one to speak. Delta's attempt is inspiration for other learners and a good baseline.
Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu is an Australian Aborigine, died in 2017. He co-write the song "Treaty" by Yuthi Yindi Aboriginal band, and this song Bayini.
RIP Gurrumal. I saw him in Darwin as the support act for Elton John......his voice........
Pretty sure Delta is singing the same verse as Dr G but in English.
All of his songs (at least the ones that I know) are about country and family. RIP Dr G
It is customary not to speak an Indigenous Australians name after they have passed.
My mistake. It is Blue King Brown Snake group that Gurrumul sings with.
He played with Yothu Yindi with his uncle , lead singer Mandawuy Yunupingu, then later formed The Saltwater Band . He released his album Gurrumul in 2008 I think, to much acclaim Australia and Worldwide. He won many ARIA's and Deadly awards
Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu was an Aboriginal musician. Yes he was born blind and passed away 2017 aged 46 😇🙏RIP
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
250 aboriginal languages and 800 dialects
I would love to get a translation of what Gurrumal was singing, or was what Delta singing a translation? A beautiful rendition of which I hadn't seen before.
The story of aboriginal australia is really terrifying but it should not divide modern people, we need to sing together and remember the time when it was about giving everyone a fair go.
Exactly
Hey Charlie love your channel. I might have missed it but have you done any reactions to Delta Goodrem I can’t find them.
Hi, Charlie! React Gabriel Henrique singing in America's Got Talent, please!
Just for reference as you don't know
When showing or play any indigenous person you need to give a warning for other indigenous people
As when they pass its to do with their beliefs of spirits
I'm not personally adverse totally why but every broadcast in our country there's always a warning that indigenous people maybe seen and passed away
The only thing I know is it to do with the spirits of the person and I don't think other indigenous will watch if their past away
It to do with their dream time and spirits
It's just a heads up if you play any indigenous aboriginal people just put warning they it has indigenous people who maybe passed
Yeah he has a very unique voice and very gentle sole from all accounts
Cheers mate 🦘🇦🇺👍
It's in the description of the video 👍
@@TheCharlieSmithChannel cheers mate 🦘🇦🇺👍
Charlie I think you are funny
Hey there, Halle Bailey's first single, Angel, just dropped.
🇦🇺🇦🇺👍
Please react #1 Aussie country singer Kasey Chambers sing Lose Yourself (Eminem Cover)
No it was nothing like lady smith black mamba so
Shame you had to listen with delta in it. There are way better versions.
Do your homework before playing any music otherwise you make youself look so ignorant
Excuse me?
I'm not pretending to know anything I don't. I literally asked people to fill me in in the comments.
Do you know how many requests I have to get through. I can't research everyone before I record a reaction. Read the comments bud. There's way more info and opportunities for nice interactions than I'd have ever got from doing my own research. Even Gurrumal's son is in the comments. So if you don't like the way I react then move on. Not bothered. You're the only one complaining about it
wow, how fkn rude! What is your problem mate, apart from your profile pic, which is a serious problem in itself.
Sounds better without Delta
