na, he'll do, (close if not perfection) don't need someone else taking his limelight lol , anyhow too much underpaid and unrecognised talent in the world already
The message of this song is that you have to receive (and GIVE) love to the people around you in order to have a healthy mindset and meaningful life. Very powerful song!
I agree. Society has taught us to turn our backs on those who (APPEAR) wrong. If you look at the video at the end and see where the brother, as a lawyer rescue his brother from prison, then you got the message. LISTEN PEOPLE to the song. LOVE AND FORGIVENESS conquers all the wrong you believe in your mind is wrong. Think about when you were wrong.
Exactly! Not sure how so many assumed this video is about race. It's showing how LOVE & ACCEPTANCE of the differences among us all impacts our lives when compared to constant HATRED & REJECTION. Hurting people hurt, hate & reject others. Love is the answer we're all searching for, if we can get past the empty bs ego trips and take an honest look at ourselves. Sadly so many have never known how to truly love another or themselves w/o condition or expectation.
Barringat my take on this is that it's about how dffrntly a child can develop just by nurture and affection. ...it's goes back to that old saying " nurture vs nature" ...my 2 cents here is that I was put out of home by my mom and don't know what it feels like to have supportive parents...but I refused to let nature control my destiny as I could've easily led a totally dffnt life. now I have a degree and a decent job and try my best to help young kids in need. I think some ppl are born with stronger minds than others and they allow their environment to dictate their growth potential
Beautiful and important public service announcement. Love Is the Answer. Very honored to be part of this project. GREAT DAY AT THE OFFICE. I play the "Bad Teacher" Lindsay McGrail
Aloe Blacc writes music the way it's supposed to be written. He doesn't really write music based off a single human who just so happened to capture his heart, he writes music that actually means something, about problems we have in the world today.
Yep. A little thing called LIFE happened to me since my youthful music loving years of the 80s and 90s. I've not been able to enjoy much "me time". Therefore, I've not been able to take the time to sample great music like this immediately when it comes out. Taking care of my daughter, my two parents who both battled cancer (my father battled twice), and my grandmother (a cancer and stoke survivor) kinda puts a damper on my "staying current". So yes. This artist is my newest favorite artist.
Love this song, shows how two different individuals can be raised in the same house but turn out completely different. I love the Messages in your songs.
If he is such a humble soul why does he not give credit to the musicians who helped him create this music. Vocals may be important but listen to this song without the bass player or drummer. you would not like this son nearly as much.
Andrew Boyle wut an ignorant comment. jus becuz he doesnt shout out musicians who paved tha way doesnt mean hes not humble. and as far as tha bass player drummer thing, wut r u gna do jus listen to lyrics with no beat? it wouldnt be music then.
All musicians are credited. Just because they didn't put it in the description of the video doesn't mean they didn't receive credit. www.aloeblacc.com/credits/lifeyourspirit
While I totally agree with interpretation, I think it could equally be an analogy for the personal choice we all must make whether to see the world thru the eyes of love, or the eyes of fear and hate. It is on each of us to choose that path for ourselves. Alternatively, this could be expressed as: There is only one power in heaven, and that power is love
Aloe Blacc is officially one of my most favorite music artist. He puts so much meaning into his music which I love. Wish I could have found him sooner ❤️
It sickens me that brilliant artist like Aloe don't get the recognition they deserve. Instead they praise the really mediocre artist such Miley Cyrus and Justin Beiber who don't have anything positive in their music.
He gets a LOT of mainstream attention and support all the way back to Emanon, dude has awards and is a multimillionaire: Just because he's never sold out to be mainstream doesn't mean he isn't recognized as the popularity he does have evident by his worth from his career, he is *_very_* successful, not everyone wants or seeks being a Pop star and as a fan back from Emanon, I'm personally glad he never did seek that
The main message here is that troubled childs (in this case they are teenagers) should be loved just as much as all other childs... especially in schools, even if the kid has problems at home if he can go to school and feel love it gives him or her a better chance in life. But in school nowadays if your a little bit different from the others you get shit on and if you have trouble at school the teachers shit on you aswell.. Giving the troubled child no chance to be loved what so ever or to change for the better... some might be able to still do it but others might just fall in drugs or illegal activities. School system really fucking suck. Im out
This is what is often referred to as the Trinity of Despair. For me it came in the form of Severe lack of love, affection and POSITIVE ATTENTION from the household starting at the age of 8, same thing at school from peers starting from grade 3, and same thing in the workplace when I took on my first job at 17. That was my trinity. I was able to get out of it and thrive BECAUSE of those same struggles and ostracization (about 45% of it BECAME self imposed). In order to break free of ANY Trinity of Despair it has to be coupled with a SQUARE of Conviction that is ATLEAST equally as powerful but IDEALLY greater by even a miniscule amount IDEALLY a significant amount. For me it was my ABSOLUTE LOVE and DEEP rooted DESIRE to outperform ANYONE in ANYTHING that piqued my interest pass a certain threshold, Computer Games/Video Games/Card Games/MARBLES, AND having several "grandiose" "impossible" or "reckless" END game goals. which after 28 years on this planet I have finally achieved the BIGGEST, MOST challenging, and HIGHEST RISK/REWARD ratio one among OTHERS. Finally the LAST section of MY personal SQUARE of Conviction and the ONE that MUST and I repeat MUST be incorporated in ANY SQUARE of Conviction If you want to KNOW you will ONE day break free of the constant battering of NEGATIVITY and ultimately becoming Victorious is an UNPRECENDENTED LOVE, APPRECIATION, AND ACCEPTANCE for YOURSELF the good, bad, and the UGLY. (NO one on this planet is capable of LOVING you MORE and BETTER than the LOVE that you can give yourself. But also know that THIS love MUST be CONDITIONAL based on YOUR OWN personal CRITERIA.) Then finally to seal the STRATEGY you need to ALWAYS look to IMPROVE, ELIMINATE, OR NULIFY ANY threat to your Square of Conviction. This is the FOUNDATIONAL strategy that is BEST implemented and where one can BUILD upon from there.
The song is about universal love. The video is a narrative about every kid in every school at one time or another. Everybody gets shit on in one way or another. Everybody is treated unfairly in one way or another. Everybody's pain is real. Love is the answer.
There's an old Chinese movie called "Education of Love," about a young teacher in 1940s Hong Kong who learns the importance of love as part of a child's education. She learns to show love and support for her students in the classroom, but more importantly, she also addresses the lack of love and support children have at home. She goes out of her way to bring the same love and support she provides her students to their homes by talking to the families of the children: alcoholic fathers, absent working moms, illiterate grandparents. I bring this up because as much as we need our schools to change, we can never forget that education begins at home, something that Aloe Blacc demonstrated at the very beginning of the video with a crumbling marriage that could not love and support the children in their studies and early adult years. Education has to be a community effort between families and schools in order to develop a comprehensive support network for children throughout their education. If one falters, the other can support the student without leaving him or her abandoned.
Love Is the Answer Aloe Blacc Broken hearts everywhere From stepping on them, we don't care Somebody tell me what we gonna do Even though it's plenty to share People hungry on the streets, it ain't fair But you don't think about it until it's you Now I'm gonna say how I feel And what I wanna say is love's the only thing that's real I won't tell you what to do Just believe that love 'the only thing we have that's true 'Cause love is the answer It's the answer to the questions in your mind Love is the answer It's the answer, if you're looking you will find The answer is love Yes, indeed The answer is love Say it again The answer is love I'm telling you now The answer is love Friends know where to be found To help you when you are down But you know you are the one to blame You know what's wrong from what's right Nobody wins in a fight but still we play the game I'm gonna say how I feel And what I wanna say is love's the only thing that's real I won't tell you what to do Just believe that love 'the only thing that's real and true 'Cause love is the answer It's the answer to the questions in your mind Love is the answer If you're looking it's the answer you gonna find Love is the answer It's the only thing that everybody needs Love is the answer It's the only thing that makes us truly free Just look around the whole wide world So many beautiful things to see Take my hand and come along Spread some love with me Love is the answer It's the answer to the questions in your mind Love is the answer If you're looking it's the answer you gonna find Love is the answer It's the only thing that everybody needs Love is the answer It's the only thing that makes us truly free The answer is love (the answer is love) Yes, it is The answer is love Now say it again The answer is love The answer is love The answer is love The answer is love Yes, it is The answer is love Now say it again The answer is love The answer is love The answer is love Songwriters: Aloe Blacc / Pharrell Williams
Music Awesome COOL dope best music spoke word flow music awesome radio please sing love AWESOME COOL both Cool good Listen wow powerful best message Deep Cool good Listen wow
Jeezzz! How come I have never heard of this artist up to this moment? I was initially looking for some other song on UA-cam, but by chance, I found myself HERE... What great piece of luck! The song is out of this world... And so is the singer. 😇 I hope, Aloe Black is alive and in good health! I wish him many-many more fruitful years on earth, so that he can continue making all of us happy! 😊❤
9. Hi! I’m Angie and my dream is to become a singer, I know there’re a lot of people like me, but could you please give a chance to watch my video of me singing on my channel? Please, I’ll be grateful.
Aloe Blacc a une belle voix, de belles chansons entraînantes et tout mais surtout il fait passez des messages importants à travers sa musique, que demandez de plus c'est un artiste complet
No child left behind!! If your a Father to a child, BE THERE!! Your child loves you and need you in their life!! Be a positive role model to your child!! #FathersAreImportant
I think the reason why aloe doesnt get so much recognition is because most people think that it was aviici that made the wakw me up song, in fact that is why in here and most of people who watched this video followed the same path. I love this artist and someone should show him to the radio.
The alternative stations (at least the one in Atlanta) tend to play the acoustic version of Wake Me Up. In fact, I heard Aloe's version first. Another reason that Aloe isn't as popular is because he does tackle issues, and it makes people uncomfortable- they'd rather see a story about to pretty white girls feeling persecuted for being pretty rather than real people and their real struggle.
*ALOE BLACC - "LOVE IS THE ANSWER"* Love the beat. And that voice! I love the raspiness in his vocal. The cool message in the lyrics and the video is just as awesome. :) #song #aloeblacc #music #awesome
I love this guys music, It's so uplifting. Even though it's a lot tougher to get paid with good music as opposed to the garbage out now, I'm so glad guys like Aloe are around.
Amazing video concept! It is based off of the novel based off a true story called The Other Wes Moore. That's why at the end they sit down with one another because the are the "same person". The one who went to college is about to interview the other one for his book.
Both of the teenage boys are the same person. One choice was to live with his dad and attend a middle class school with more opportunities, while the other choice was to live with his mom and attend a lower class school where he eventually ends up in prison due to the different influences of his surroundings.
Remind me of that funky old school funk! Love the horns!!! And the BASS...my dude :). FRESH. Love that "Stevie Wonder" key combo quarter way through. U got something her, Man. AND the message is ...LOVE. Just lovely. Thank you! More!!!
What good music! I dream with my charger a retro glasses, a slim fit jacket ... and your background music while old alone ... going to the countryside to visit my mother at the ranch while humming your songs ... this is funky, this soul , this is ... disco, this vintage ... this is all I need ...
We need more artist like him
Yes lord.
We need a "music industry" that promotes music like this!
na, he'll do, (close if not perfection) don't need someone else taking his limelight lol , anyhow too much underpaid and unrecognised talent in the world already
Rigjt
probably a ton that are never recognized
The message of this song is that you have to receive (and GIVE) love to the people around you in order to have a healthy mindset and meaningful life. Very powerful song!

Exactly! Not sure how so many assumed this video is about race. It's showing how LOVE & ACCEPTANCE of the differences among us all impacts our lives when compared to constant HATRED & REJECTION. Hurting people hurt, hate & reject others. Love is the answer we're all searching for, if we can get past the empty bs ego trips and take an honest look at ourselves. Sadly so many have never known how to truly love another or themselves w/o condition or expectation.
Barringat my take on this is that it's about how dffrntly a child can develop just by nurture and affection. ...it's goes back to that old saying " nurture vs nature" ...my 2 cents here is that I was put out of home by my mom and don't know what it feels like to have supportive parents...but I refused to let nature control my destiny as I could've easily led a totally dffnt life. now I have a degree and a decent job and try my best to help young kids in need. I think some ppl are born with stronger minds than others and they allow their environment to dictate their growth potential
Yeah powerful stuff. Love is the greatest force in life
well said man
This is a big song, with a big message.
-Love is the answer.
Amen Omar
this guy's incredibly underrated
Agreed, can't wait for another record from him.
Agreed indeed.
thats why he is an artist. he doesnt need or seek recognition and fame
In all fairness, the guy is worth a few million dollars, so it's not like he ain't doing ok (although he isn't exactly ballin' either).
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😍
Beautiful and important public service announcement. Love Is the Answer. Very honored to be part of this project. GREAT DAY AT THE OFFICE. I play the "Bad Teacher" Lindsay McGrail
we need more music like this with positive and inspired vibes.
Thanks for bringing music back to music
he should be more famous, this should have more views.., hes amazing
Aloe Blacc writes music the way it's supposed to be written. He doesn't really write music based off a single human who just so happened to capture his heart, he writes music that actually means something, about problems we have in the world today.
mia zacharias Nicely said. Nicely said bro.
Dope music awesome Cool
This isn't true at all. Music is what you feel your music should be.
Yes yes & yes ❤👌💯
I discovered this song and now I can't stop listening to it.
Give this man a Dollar!
LOL!! i see what you did there
No, Love!
*pulls away fishing rod as he tries to grab it* you gotta be quicker than that
Needed this TODAY! Nov 5, 2024.
Thank you for not seeking change, but improvement instead. Change isn't always good and that is why I seek to improve this world as much as possible.
« Il a déjà tes yeux » brought me here ! Aïssa Maiga 👌🏽
How is it possible that a song as good as this has less than 250k views? Aloe Blacc should've ridden a wrecking ball...
After 5 years it has more than 6,6 mil. views!
Yo this guy has secretly been making all my favorite songs. I'm happy he is getting more recognition.
listening to this song is making me want to be a better person. that is what art is all about.
This is a very powerful video. Fathers all over the world need to watch this; there is a message.
So true. My dads a dickhead
My God this is powerful. My new favorite artist. TRUTH
Nya G new?
Yep. A little thing called LIFE happened to me since my youthful music loving years of the 80s and 90s. I've not been able to enjoy much "me time".

This artist is my newest favorite artist.
powerful. You madame have my respect, may the lord protect you and yours. much love
BigHeadAstronaut thank you. And I love your screen name.
Why isn't this guy all over the radio??? He's amazing
Love this song, shows how two different individuals can be raised in the same house but turn out completely different. I love the Messages in your songs.
I love how his music actually means something. It has a purpose and a good message. This is the kind of music kids today need to be listening to!
He is such a good humble soul i love your work.
If he is such a humble soul why does he not give credit to the musicians who helped him create this music. Vocals may be important but listen to this song without the bass player or drummer. you would not like this son nearly as much.
Andrew Boyle Now go tell that to your sister susan boyle cause i never listen to her music.
Andrew Boyle
wut an ignorant comment. jus becuz he doesnt shout out musicians who paved tha way doesnt mean hes not humble. and as far as tha bass player drummer thing, wut r u gna do jus listen to lyrics with no beat? it wouldnt be music then.
Andrew Boyle I do believe he recognized the musicians by paying them for their time and effort. What else was he supposed to do?
All musicians are credited. Just because they didn't put it in the description of the video doesn't mean they didn't receive credit.

Jesus is love, he is the answer🙏
This video is deep... 2 kids same potential, opposite outcomes... difference may just have been a bit more love at the right time.
While I totally agree with interpretation, I think it could equally be an analogy for the personal choice we all must make whether to see the world thru the eyes of love, or the eyes of fear and hate. It is on each of us to choose that path for ourselves. Alternatively, this could be expressed as: There is only one power in heaven, and that power is love
Aloe Blacc is officially one of my most favorite music artist. He puts so much meaning into his music which I love. Wish I could have found him sooner ❤️
who is this man? and what is this beautiful music? I swear I haven't heard a decent song in a long long long while!
Nico and Vinz?
R Ortiz Aloe black.
His songs can inspire. Just watch the video for m&ms anniversary, and you'll see what I mean.
You may like Hozier then... Begin with take me to church/arsonist lullaby
Have u tried his “girl u can tell everybody “
It’s beyond amazing
He's been around for years
play his cd almost every morning great album.
This song is the bomb!!
Refreshing that good music like this is still alive and well.
I really like this brotha's style. Has a lil "throwback vibe" to it. I can dig it. YEAH!
For real---that's why it sounds great---it has a late '70s-early '80s vibe.
It sickens me that brilliant artist like Aloe don't get the recognition they deserve. Instead they praise the really mediocre artist such Miley Cyrus and Justin Beiber who don't have anything positive in their music.
We still there man
He gets a LOT of mainstream attention and support all the way back to Emanon, dude has awards and is a multimillionaire: Just because he's never sold out to be mainstream doesn't mean he isn't recognized as the popularity he does have evident by his worth from his career, he is *_very_* successful, not everyone wants or seeks being a Pop star and as a fan back from Emanon, I'm personally glad he never did seek that
No need to feel sickened, he has been extremely successful and at 45 can retire comfortably
His music is Gold this generation ain't doing something like that .
It's cause he didn't go to a Diddy party. He's better than that. 😅
The main message here is that troubled childs (in this case they are teenagers) should be loved just as much as all other childs... especially in schools, even if the kid has problems at home if he can go to school and feel love it gives him or her a better chance in life. But in school nowadays if your a little bit different from the others you get shit on and if you have trouble at school the teachers shit on you aswell..

„Il a déjà tes yeux“ brought me here, I love this song ❤️
This is another 1 of the Few that DIDN'T sell out to the Man. LOVE his Message. I So Wish that there were More Like him.
Exactly answer is love
so One is living his dream and the other isn't all he need is love.
i love this song
This song is the jam and the message behind it is so perfect.
Love Is the Answer
Aloe Blacc
Broken hearts everywhere
From stepping on them, we don't care
Somebody tell me what we gonna do
Even though it's plenty to share
People hungry on the streets, it ain't fair
But you don't think about it until it's you
Now I'm gonna say how I feel
And what I wanna say is love's the only thing that's real
I won't tell you what to do
Just believe that love 'the only thing we have that's true
'Cause love is the answer
It's the answer to the questions in your mind
Love is the answer
It's the answer, if you're looking you will find
The answer is love
Yes, indeed
The answer is love
Say it again
The answer is love
I'm telling you now
The answer is love
Friends know where to be found
To help you when you are down
But you know you are the one to blame
You know what's wrong from what's right
Nobody wins in a fight but still we play the game
I'm gonna say how I feel
And what I wanna say is love's the only thing that's real
I won't tell you what to do
Just believe that love 'the only thing that's real and true
'Cause love is the answer
It's the answer to the questions in your mind
Love is the answer
If you're looking it's the answer you gonna find
Love is the answer
It's the only thing that everybody needs
Love is the answer
It's the only thing that makes us truly free
Just look around the whole wide world
So many beautiful things to see
Take my hand and come along
Spread some love with me
Love is the answer
It's the answer to the questions in your mind
Love is the answer
If you're looking it's the answer you gonna find
Love is the answer
It's the only thing that everybody needs
Love is the answer
It's the only thing that makes us truly free
The answer is love (the answer is love)
Yes, it is
The answer is love
Now say it again
The answer is love
The answer is love
The answer is love
The answer is love
Yes, it is
The answer is love
Now say it again
The answer is love
The answer is love
The answer is love

Awesome song and his voice is amazing!!!
9. Hi! I’m Angie and my dream is to become a singer, I know there’re a lot of people like me, but could you please give a chance to watch my video of me singing on my channel? Please, I’ll be grateful.
This song is powerful already, but the video makes it even better.
Finally. Some real music. Such a talented artist.
Oooh...the bass in this song sounds like magic.
Most underrated singer ever. Much love Aloe
I love this song. Coffee ain't even ready yet and here I am dancing all over the living room :-P
Aloe Blacc a une belle voix, de belles chansons entraînantes et tout mais surtout il fait passez des messages importants à travers sa musique, que demandez de plus c'est un artiste complet
Powerful video. I haven't seen talent like this since Lauren Hill Grammy award album. Keep up the good work.
Love this song thank you very much peace and much love so true 😊✌️🙏❤️🌸🎵🎶🎧🔥🌎🌍💯🌞🕯️🕊️🌱
I just don't understand how this isn't at 1billion views yet. Aloe's music is a whole other level. It touches the soul.
Probably because most people don’t have souls 😕..
Now this is real R&B!!! Take notice....
Used to listen to this song all the time and I still have 'LOVE IS THE ANSWER' up on my bedroom wall
Still listening; love this song!
More Aloe + Pharrell please, thank you.
he is so talented spread the word
No child left behind!! If your a Father to a child, BE THERE!! Your child loves you and need you in their life!! Be a positive role model to your child!! #FathersAreImportant
Period
Still listening this song. Great Pharrell production
anyone else naming to this in lockdown
Why am I just hearing this song yet its been out for at least 10 yrs.
how can you dislike or like this song?
you can only LOVE this song
LOVE IS THE ANSWER
this song is now stuck to my head
I think the reason why aloe doesnt get so much recognition is because most people think that it was aviici that made the wakw me up song, in fact that is why in here and most of people who watched this video followed the same path. I love this artist and someone should show him to the radio.

This is truly the best singer in the universe and always will be, FOREVER!!!
This need MORE views. Awesome song.
DAMNN, THIS GIG IS GROOVY AS HELL. MAKES A BROTHA WANNA MOVE... 🕺🏾🏋🏾♂️🤸🏾♂️
*ALOE BLACC - "LOVE IS THE ANSWER"*
Love the beat. And that voice! I love the raspiness in his vocal. The cool message in the lyrics and the video is just as awesome. :)
#song #aloeblacc #music #awesome
I love this guys music, It's so uplifting. Even though it's a lot tougher to get paid with good music as opposed to the garbage out now, I'm so glad guys like Aloe are around.

I had the immense pleasure of working on this very special song/film. Lindsay McGrail as bad teacher
Fine message for the people. Groovy song. Love your voice Aloe. ;)
