Met Nahko once. Told him how his music helped me through my addiction. His voice calmed me down while I shook... I might be dead right now if it wasn't for Medicine. Good ass people, Great Tune!
Keep fighting brother u are loved start digging deep and trust yourself I love you brother everything is going to be okay good and evil are about to go to war just stay true to yourself
So much so compared to the studio version. And the father mountain on the beach. And vultures of culture with the trippy background but not the fast one with the trippy background the slower one lmao iykyk
This man is responsible for helping me pull myself out of the deepest datkest times of my life and i will forever remember this. From the bottom of my heart I love you Nahko, never stop sharing yourselves with thr world, and thank you for having such an impact to my life your music is medicine!
For so long the Native youth have been brought down by society. I remember traveling off my Reservation and how hard it was because people would publicly mock my culture by saying racial remarks. The sad thing is I was 13 years old at the time. I'm so glad to see and hear artists like Nhako Bear do his thing because it inspires me to be happy with my culture and people. I love my race and wish only for peace and unity for all tribes and nations. Much Love Ty Lee Storm
Never let society bring you down…then they won. You carry the sacred blood of the first nations and should be proud. I live on Long Island. Very few Native folks , mostly just Shinnecock Indian Nation a relative of Alconquin left but every other town has a Native American name…Wantagh, Hauppauge, Merrick, Montauk, , Ronkonkoma, so many more. This reminds us all of our history…a sad one but never lets us forget whose land we are on. Many of us whites feel like we have deep connections and deep sorrow over the treatment of Natives in our history and some feel connected to the souls of the First Nation. When i teach classes on connecting to nature, I always ask forgiveness to our Native American ancestors and ask them to guide us. I think the Earth would be in much better shape if they were still in charge. Be proud Tyson, carrying the blood of such beautiful people. Peace to all!
Nahko... I was separated from my ex wife bonded deeply with my sons ove this song and other selections of his. Met a girl who, I later discovered, loved nahko's music. Now we're married... I'm grateful to have his music in the sound track of my life...
Nahko Bear is amazing and I could listen to him forever. My son just passed away and this was the last son he played for me. Now it's my forever son to Jairus, 36. I love you ❤
I'm sorry for both of your losses. I hope you have many dream visitations from your children. The veil is so close, I only seen my dad a few times growing up, Since he's passed he's always me. He told me in a dream he wasn't dead and he was still here.. I was talking and he shushed me and said "look" I look, and there was one red cardinal perched on a branch that turned it's head and looked at me. Keep talking to your departed loved one's, because they know everything going on in the families life.. and are always a thought away. Angel's and guides as well. ❤
Got to listen to this song with friends on top of a hostel in Antigua Guatemala after we took acid and the volcano fuego was erupting in the distance. It was a very surreal night.
you have to remember this is not produced in a studio, no edits, no effects ... just amazing in it's original state ... and then compare this to other produced music. that will give you a sense of the beauty in this video :)
So true, so perfect in soo many ways this is the kinda music that should be making millions unlike those new fake rappers that are all done on a auto correction off the computer they can't even sing shit anyone could do that
@@rachelledavis1681 this is some great music. I love the gondola sessions. I have heard several other artists playing in the gondola sessions. The gondola has great acoustics.
I will always come back here and listen to this masterpiece. It's been like 7 years since I first heard about this song. Time passes at the speed of light. Thanks to my friend David who brought me here ❤
Hahahaha... last spring I sat on a flight to Seattle next to Nahko. We had a small conversation about the weather. He was carrying a guitar case.... I had no idea he was a famous musician. I just found out a couple days ago!!! WTF? I'm glad I found his music though! Great stuff!
Churrumais great thing is that he’s not even that famous. I live in Hilo, the town he mentions in this song and the majority of the people have never heard of him or his music
Did you guys listen to the album version of Warrior people?. This version isnt recorded in a studio but in a gondola and its far better than the album version !! The sometimes blunt sound of the guitar, the roughness of the strings, the rawness of it, thats what actually makes this song so great! This warrior has no time to go to the studio and record, he doesnt care about recording that much, only that his message goes out to the people. I wish I could be part of his movement, ive tried contacting them but no response. One love !
Who knew a gondola could sound so good? I had to play this again since it had been a few years since my last listen. Still just as good as the first listen.
Thanks Sean, we’ve worked to get some decent sound quality on these flying recording boxes but there are always challenges. Glad you enjoyed this one 🙌
Love this song. Incorporates all beliefs in one breath...and identifies "I teach my children they are loved and not forgiven". Thank you Nahko and Medicine for the people for your medicine.

I am a 40 something Caucasian male. I have heard and listened to Warrior People hundreds of times since discovering it about a year or so ago. Warrior People touches my soul. I connect with it on a level most people won't understand. For me, it represents walking life's path, and overcoming it's trials and hardships and keep pushing forward. We are all one people... I used to have extreme anger management issues, and this song softened my heart.. "I will learn to be Peaceful, But I keep my knife at my side. I will pray for compassion, but if war comes to my door, I will be Blasting", that lyric alone opened my eyes to my inner struggle with my anger problem. It has taken me this long to comment because so many will judge the fact that I'm a Caucasian. How could this song connect with me? I'm sure some of y'all will have negative responses... But all I can say to that ignorance would be... Are You Listening?
And you embraced it1 To have such anger comes such joy, to know one is to have the ability to know the other, cosmic law permits it, all has purpose too. We all are on our paths of soul searching and beyond
Look man 40ish . Your a shame slave . The human mammal is thermally adaptive. Cold climates endured by our ancestors when they wondered northern Europe gave rise to increased energy, mental and physical. Granted we have lost touch nearly completely with our tribal past , and to some degree a sense of community along with it . But you my friend have nothing to be ashamed of . My ancestors where the Picts of Scotland and when I think back to how they lived , vs how native Americans lived . I see no difference
....."But if war comes to my door you know I will be blasting..... WARRIOR MENTALITY". How can his words "touch your soul" if you don't even finish his thought/statement/lyric?
Interesting...I may know why. However, I prefer not to get into a youtube comment battle with people who are....well terrible haha. Are you decendant from tjhe people of the Caucuses? or European They are different races. Tribes from the Caucuses are the Ancestors to the Indo race. Anglo refers to the fair skinned European race. Neither superior to the other. All 7 races are important in their own right.
Only the ignorant will pass judgment on your being Caucasian. Caucasian peoples are themselves indigenous, stemming from a broad range of ethnic groups. One love, brother.
Hey Nahko, you probably don't get a chance to read all of these but i just wanted to reach out and say a few days ago I was jamming to your music and a neighbor 2 doors down knocked on my door and said "Is that Nahko Bear I hear?!?!" and now I have met a number of great people as a result. Thanks brother. Don't ever stop what you are doing! We love you!
“I teach my children they are loved and not forgiven.” Powerful!!! Sad that he’s not touring. The best concert I’ve ever been to! New haven, CT September 2019.
During the change of season I tend to find myself getting down and Nahko seems to be the vibe that I've been using to bring myself out of the darkness. Thanks buddy, you've saved my mind so many times!! :)
Timothy Walters Aloha ke akua ...... “Aloha Ke Akua” Lyrics (Non-scrolling) Nahko Bear (Medicine for the People) Lend your ears, lend your hands, Lend your movement, anything you can. Come to teach, come to be taught. Come in the likeness in the image of God. Cause, you can be like that. With all that humbleness, and all that respect. All of the power invested in me, be it hard to love my enemies. All of the black bags over the heads of the dead and dying. The more I understand about the human race, the less I comprehend about our purpose and place and maybe if there was a clearer line the curiosity would satisfy. Time based prophecies that kept me from living, in the moment I am struggling to trust the divinity of all the guides and what the hell they have planned for us. I cry for the creatures who get left behind but everything will change in a blink of an eye and if you wish to survive, you will find the guide inside. I go back and forth every single day, the clarity it comes to me in a choppy way, as the feelings and the places and the seasons change, the galaxies remain. Energy fields pullin’ up out of this space. The angels that are a couple to the spiritual waste. The hate that gets me distant from my spiritual pace. Ten fold the manna when the planets are in place, in polar alignment. We’re on assignment. Bodies on consignment. Return them to the circus. And what is the purpose? What is the purpose and would you believe it? Would you believe it if you knew what you were for and how you became so in form? Bodies of info performing such miracles. I am a miracle made up of particles and in this existence, I’ll stay persistent, and I’ll make a difference and I will have lived it. Aloha, Aloha Ke Akua, Ke Akua, Aloha, Aloha, Kuleana, Kuleana. Aloha, Aloha Ke Akua, Ke Akua, Aloha, Aloha, Kuleana, Kuleana. Each day that I wake, I will praise, I will praise. Each day that I wake, I give thanks, I give thanks. Each day that I wake, I will praise, I will praise. Each day that I wake, I give thanks, I give thanks. And the day that I don’t wake up and transcend the holy make-up, I am capable, I am powerful. And the day that I don’t wake up and transcend the holy makeup, I am on my way to a different place…. I’m not a leader, just a creature, seeking the features of a teacher. Whether you follow or whether you lead All mysterious ways of nature and I’m into it. Changing management. And there are various ways to conquer this monotonous metropolis, my stubbornness is bottomless, my fearlessness is talking shit and I’m wide awake and I’m taking names.

Still love this shit Bubbi.... After all these years... A medicine man for everyone... You are needed... Others have tried to take your place brother but that guitar sings the truth my bruuuu!!!
Nakho you're so valuable. A warrior, singer, lover, brother, and the being that invested in the infrastructure of body and mind. We're stoked you are working so hard. You being amazing doesn't diminish us. When we or you build you, everyone gets stronger, because we're on the same team. True love. When we build ourselves we strengthen everything we love. Like seeds in the earth bursting with desire, we were just biding our time to set the world on fire. With a line inspired by all the sparks that fired in the illusions. Our map. We the sparks of everything burn for the everything we love. Everything loves us too. Go team.
All Indian warriors were defeated long, long, ago by a far superior force. It's what the Natives eeserved after they murdered, raped, and enslaved Christian settlers. The settlers extinguished any and all threats to peace. Ie. Hostile injuns
NAHKO Bear, you have seemed to show up in my life at the time I'm finally starting to get the answers I have been looking for all my 55 years. I'm 60 now. But your music is helping me to deal with my mother that I didn't ever get to have and my recent death of my mom and Grandma best friend all in one ! It's hard but somehow, I will find out that " IT'S OK TO BE NOT OKAY BROTHER! THANKS FOR YOUR EXCELLENT WORK !
I've been coming back to this over and over for eight years. It's crazy how time flies. This remains relevant though. 🙏🏻 Seeing Nahko live twice and meeting him was one of the best things I've done in the last ten years for sure. I miss outdoor festivals and medicinal music and my feet in the grass so much.
I love it! forgiven! Christian! one of the most amazing things i heard about the Native American people was by a preacher - Derek Prince explained why they were the most oppressed people group of all at the time (i think he said it in late 90s)... It was something amazing how he explained it.. they could not get ahead compared to any other group! (due to generational curses and rejection of the Word of God! Amazing!)
This is the first I ever saw of Nahko a few years ago. He's really broken and flawed, but very talented. Hope he works hard to heal and change, because he has something wonderful to share once he does.
I hope everyone gives him a chance to do it. Many are only judging and not trying to help anyone at all. I was thinking maybe people need to walk both sides for a minute before they can truly find their path. Why should he be any different just because some people elevated him to 'God' status. Of course he would be bound to fall eventually. I'm pretty sure that's what he's been saying all along. We are all still 'learning', himself included.. You're the first sympathetic voice I've seen, I think.
I am still standing by him & will continue to do so!!! We are all related & none of us are perfect & we all need each other!!! How can anyone turn on a brother who has helped so many & now that he needs us who are any of us to judge him?? We still owe him our gratitude & RESPECT!!!
Two years ago I stumbled across this video by chance having never heard of Nahko Bear. Two years later I own all of his albums, have seen him in concert twice, and can genuinely say that I have been changed by his music. Thank you for this video and for spreading the love.
This same thing happened to me a few years ago! I'm so grateful for discovering his music! And so here I am revisiting the video that I first saw of him years later! :D
THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SONGS I HAVE EVER HAD THE PLEASURE OF LISTENING TO! I, TOO, HAVE LEARNED TO BE PEACEFUL BUT I ALSO HAVE MY KNIFE AT MY SIDE! #IAm a WARRIOR BEING! 💪🏽☮️💜💫 Buddha Heart Demon Hand. ALWAYS LEAD WITH AGAPE LOVE, INCLUDING LOVE FOR THE SAFETY OF ALL CHILDREN! ⚖️
May Father masculin, Mother feminine, the Sun, the moon and all the stars bless you always Brother! Thank you for your music, it has truly helped me alot on this journey home! I am a witness! Love&Light 🙏🌈💪🌞🌝🌹👑
I need your magical music this time in My Life to be stronger! It is healing to My soul.. Please Nahko.. Please..spread your compassion and your words all even to us in the North (Sweden, Denmark, Norway) ..and all other even too the pingvins💖🌟
Perfect song for 2020, should be the soundtrack for the movement. Remember, it's not just about police brutality, it's about racism at every level. Would love to hear more from the Native Americans, your the true Americans who deserve a much bigger voice. Your people understand the benefits of peace.
I’m not feeling the magic the way I did last week. Who is this guy? Our minds set up some beautiful and flawless realities that seem true to us, but are idealistic visions of
wow even to this day this song gos straight to 💓 full of passion " #love #angrystate full of fire full of water flowing around obstacles. Thankyou for your wisdom keep inspiring
"I will learn to be peaceful, but I'll keep my knife at my side. I'll pray for compassion but if war comes to my door, you know I'll be blasting." #PREACH
Need this after protecting the hood. Gotta keep the right mindset... My knife need not have been up against chest, even if it does no damage as I am proud to say it didn't. You are among the medicine I take. I do not trust medical/mental help, nor want it. I AM MY RESPONSIBILITY. I should not be a monster, even if the children I was protecting weren't scared of me... Thank you Nahko. You are a brother to me, in history, and the attitude I need.
I will forever choose this version over the studio one. It just has so much feeling in it.
The elevation and acoustics
I have to agree ... Powerful
I agree. This is mine & my 8 year old sons fav
Samee!! Always did and will!!!
agreed 👍
Met Nahko once. Told him how his music helped me through my addiction. His voice calmed me down while I shook... I might be dead right now if it wasn't for Medicine. Good ass people, Great Tune!
Keep fighting brother u are loved start digging deep and trust yourself I love you brother everything is going to be okay good and evil are about to go to war just stay true to yourself
Same!! Was on my detox playlist! Blessings! ❤️🙏🏼❤️
👍💗
Loves 💎
Bro I had the same experience! Helped me through a heroin addiction! I am 4 years clean now! I hope you are staying clean as well! :) God Bless
this is the superior version of the song
Absolutely. ❤❤❤
Bro ALL his accoustic jam sessions are definitely on point!!!😊🎉
"black as night" is my jam tho...
So much so compared to the studio version. And the father mountain on the beach. And vultures of culture with the trippy background but not the fast one with the trippy background the slower one lmao iykyk
"I will learn to be peaceful but I'll keep my knife by my side". Don't mistake my kindness for weakness. Hits hard. These lines
This man is responsible for helping me pull myself out of the deepest datkest times of my life and i will forever remember this. From the bottom of my heart I love you Nahko, never stop sharing yourselves with thr world, and thank you for having such an impact to my life your music is medicine!
I did the same over here in Australia with Xavier Rudd music.... Well done to you my brother
I don't know how I ended up here, but it was a genuine pleasure.
staslig same thing happened to me
Vanklow you've been blessed then. blessed is the best word I can find not religious but enjoy his music is soul food fam♡
got here from John Butler
Same here , lol worth it though i felt it .
Don't stop now!!
For so long the Native youth have been brought down by society. I remember traveling off my Reservation and how hard it was because people would publicly mock my culture by saying racial remarks.

I was separated from my ex wife bonded deeply with my sons ove this song and other selections of his. Met a girl who, I later discovered, loved nahko's music. Now we're married... I'm grateful to have his music in the sound track of my life...
Nahko Bear is amazing and I could listen to him forever. My son just passed away and this was the last son he played for me. Now it's my forever son to Jairus, 36. I love you ❤

"Everything you do in life is definitely relevant" nahko the world needs more you
“Everything you do in life is definitely relevant.” That statement resonates so deep as a human to me.

Jan 19 2024. I'll always have love and respect for him
Where have i been for 7 years?? This is beautiful, the goosebumps are real!
Same like I've been loving all their stuff and I am grateful to have found it
Youll find morw you love also. Dear brother. Love letters to god.
Right
Got to listen to this song with friends on top of a hostel in Antigua Guatemala after we took acid and the volcano fuego was erupting in the distance. It was a very surreal night.
Ive been coming back here every once in a while for the last 6 years :p this song has a special place in my hearth.
Im glad you also found it!

This what you call Raw. Uncooked ats finest. Does not get better than this.
@@rachelledavis1681 couldn't agree more. those other so called artists you mentioned are absolutely garbage.
Still loving this years later. World needs this shit right now
Yeah he sings this stuff but he disrespects women and rumored to do worse... 😞 Many young women have spoken out...
@@pazamour man going theyre own way....
"Feelin' me, feelin' me,
Feelin' me, feelin' me, yeah"
Good vibes!
Great song, great voice...with a wonderful guitar (Martin).
I will always come back here and listen to this masterpiece. It's been like 7 years since I first heard about this song. Time passes at the speed of light.
Thanks to my friend David who brought me here ❤
We need a world of silent but ferocious warriors today and forever!!! Let's go Nahko !
It's 2022 and this is still one of my favorite videos on UA-cam. Can't wait for Gondola Sessions to start back up again.
Medicine for the People is infectious! Money medicine is a cancer to society.
wow, 6 years after this song sounds even better to my ears
Funny how perception changes
Peaceful with good boundaries, the warrior 👹
am i the only person who thinks the acoustic warrior people is far superior to the album/studio version?
+Balphazar666 It definitely is!
Just like most songs by people who are talented
+Balphazar666 Totally. Wish I could download it.
Fuck no this version is way better
+Balphazar666 uhhhhhh hale satan brother
Hahahaha... last spring I sat on a flight to Seattle next to Nahko. We had a small conversation about the weather. He was carrying a guitar case.... I had no idea he was a famous musician. I just found out a couple days ago!!! WTF? I'm glad I found his music though! Great stuff!
very cool! Glad you found out! He truly is Medicine For The People
that is awesome
lllluuuccckkkyyyyyyy!
love his music; guess he is a gas hole just like us. ☺
Churrumais great thing is that he’s not even that famous. I live in Hilo, the town he mentions in this song and the majority of the people have never heard of him or his music

Thanks Sean, we’ve worked to get some decent sound quality on these flying recording boxes but there are always challenges. Glad you enjoyed this one 🙌
It kind of "bad", but just the right amount of bad to make it sound good.
7 years I've been coming back to this. Still appreciate it everyday.
Awesome to hear Mike, glad it has stuck a chord with you 🙏
I’ve been Indian for 36 years.. but you said every day is a new day for this Indian in training🥺 it hits hard and in the right spot.. I AM LISTENING!😫
Ur indigenous 🎉
It's time for this type of music to be in the top 10, Awesome!
Love his voice. I'm usually a Metal/Rap fan,but, this dude rocks.
same. i'm more into metal (check my username lmao) but i do listen to rap. and this BUMPS
One of my favorite songs. Saw him at a concert and it was so uplifting

I am a warrior. Love you.❤
During the change of season I tend to find myself getting down and Nahko seems to be the vibe that I've been using to bring myself out of the darkness. Thanks buddy, you've saved my mind so many times!! :)
Brother MFTP is all I can think about myself. Aloha ke akua I'm so happy someone else recognizes the need for spiritual healing! :)

“Aloha Ke Akua” Lyrics (Non-scrolling)
Nahko Bear (Medicine for the People)
Lend your ears, lend your hands,
Lend your movement, anything you can.
Come to teach, come to be taught.
Come in the likeness in the image of God.
Cause, you can be like that.
With all that humbleness, and all that respect.
All of the power invested in me,
be it hard to love my enemies.
All of the black bags over the heads of the dead and dying.
The more I understand about the human race,
the less I comprehend about our purpose and place
and maybe if there was a clearer line
the curiosity would satisfy.
Time based prophecies that kept me from living,
in the moment I am struggling
to trust the divinity of all the guides
and what the hell they have planned for us.
I cry for the creatures who get left behind
but everything will change in a blink of an eye
and if you wish to survive,
you will find the guide inside.
I go back and forth every single day,
the clarity it comes to me in a choppy way,
as the feelings and the places
and the seasons change,
the galaxies remain.
Energy fields pullin’ up out of this space.
The angels that are a couple to the spiritual waste.
The hate that gets me distant from my spiritual pace.
Ten fold the manna when the planets are in place, in polar alignment.
We’re on assignment.
Bodies on consignment.
Return them to the circus.
And what is the purpose?
What is the purpose and would you believe it?
Would you believe it
if you knew what you were for
and how you became so in form?
Bodies of info performing such miracles.
I am a miracle made up of particles
and in this existence,
I’ll stay persistent,
and I’ll make a difference
and I will have lived it.
Aloha, Aloha Ke Akua, Ke Akua,
Aloha, Aloha, Kuleana, Kuleana.
Aloha, Aloha Ke Akua, Ke Akua,
Aloha, Aloha, Kuleana, Kuleana.
Each day that I wake,
I will praise, I will praise.
Each day that I wake,
I give thanks, I give thanks.
Each day that I wake,
I will praise, I will praise.
Each day that I wake,
I give thanks, I give thanks.
And the day that I don’t wake up
and transcend the holy make-up,
I am capable, I am powerful.
And the day that I don’t wake up
and transcend the holy makeup,
I am on my way to a different place….
I’m not a leader, just a creature,
seeking the features of a teacher.
Whether you follow or whether you lead
All mysterious ways of nature and I’m into it.
Changing management.
And there are various ways to conquer this monotonous metropolis,
my stubbornness is bottomless,
my fearlessness is talking shit
and I’m wide awake and I’m taking names.
I am not a leader, just a creature.
Seeking the features of a teacher.
Whether you follow or whether you lead
All mysterious ways of nature and I’m into it.
I’m into it.
Changing management.
And there are various ways to conquer this monotonous metropolis,
my stubbornness is bottomless,
my fearlessness is talking shit
and I am wide awake.
And I’m taking names.
And there are various ways to conquer this monotonous metropolis,
my stubbornness is bottomless,
my fearlessness is talking shit,
and I’m wide awake and I’m taking names.
Do you speak to me like you speak to God?
All of the love and understanding between the father and the son?
Do you believe in the perfectness of where you are?
These are my people, these are my children,
this is the land that I would fight for.
My solidarity is telling me to patiently
be moving the musical medicine around the planet in a hurry,
Cuz there’s no time to waste.
Got to wake up the people time to stand up and say,
we know what we are for
and how we became so in form.
Bodies of info, performing such miracles.
I am a miracle, made up of particles
and in this existence,
I’ll stay persistent
and I’ll make a difference
and I will have lived it. ……..
Aloha, Aloha Ke Akua, Ke Akua,
Aloha, Aloha, Kuleana, Kuleana.
Aloha, Aloha Ke Akua, Ke Akua,
Aloha, Aloha, Kuleana, Kuleana.
Each day that I wake,
I will praise, I will praise.
Each day that I wake,
I give thanks, I give thanks.
Each day that I wake,
I will praise, I will praise.
Each day that I wake,
I give thanks, I give thanks.
And the day that I don’t wake up
and transcend the holy make-up,
I am capable, Hm that’s right,
I am powerful.
And the day that I don’t wake up and transcend the holy make-up,
I am on my way to a different place!
Aloha, Aloha Ke Akua, Ke Akua,
Aloha, Aloha, Kuleana, Kuleana.
Aloha, Aloha Ke Akua, Ke Akua,
Aloha, Aloha, Kuleana, Kuleana.

I couldn't agree with you anymore. This is my "go to music" when I need a lift. Their music never seems to fail that mission.
i was thinking the exect same thing today !
Dustin Prinz
I fill the same i get a lil down with the season change
Still love this shit Bubbi.... After all these years... A medicine man for everyone... You are needed... Others have tried to take your place brother but that guitar sings the truth my bruuuu!!!
Nakho you're so valuable. A warrior, singer, lover, brother, and the being that invested in the infrastructure of body and mind. We're stoked you are working so hard. You being amazing doesn't diminish us. When we or you build you, everyone gets stronger, because we're on the same team. True love. When we build ourselves we strengthen everything we love. Like seeds in the earth bursting with desire, we were just biding our time to set the world on fire. With a line inspired by all the sparks that fired in the illusions. Our map. We the sparks of everything burn for the everything we love. Everything loves us too. Go team.
All Indian warriors were defeated long, long, ago by a far superior force. It's what the Natives eeserved after they murdered, raped, and enslaved Christian settlers. The settlers extinguished any and all threats to peace. Ie. Hostile injuns
NAHKO Bear, you have seemed to show up in my life at the time I'm finally starting to get the answers I have been looking for all my 55 years. I'm 60 now. But your music is helping me to deal with my mother that I didn't ever get to have and my recent death of my mom and Grandma best friend all in one ! It's hard but somehow, I will find out that " IT'S OK TO BE NOT OKAY BROTHER! THANKS FOR YOUR EXCELLENT WORK !
I used to ride the gondola to work in brick i never thought of this. Excellent idea
Whether i think about my late Father or sitting on a plane going on my travels Nahko and his music will always bring a smile to my face. Genius ❤
This caught me off guard. I was expecting a bluesy tune, but a reggae melody just blew my mind. I love this.
This is honestly the best song I have ever heard..
I fell in love with this when I first heard it
Ich muss sagen es ist wahnsinnig bitte noch mehr für meine Seele der Welt
The epitomy of warrior in the garden. Fantastic location for showcasing such talent.
Epitome* Sorry to be pedantic. I agree, isn't Nahko just incredible? Really knows how to defend the future. a real living legend.
Remember being starstruck hearing this for the first time in 2014. Never heard something like it. Still bumping strong in 2020!!!
Time like these we need warriors like you. ♡ thank you. ♡
I'm from the Navajo tribe out in Arizona, I feel you man we are warriors til we die! I keep my tomahawk by my side.
I love this song every time I hear it, thank you for such beautiful music.
So much power in those songs....
For years your songs have healed my mind. Thank you!!
Great song. Greetings from a celtic native from the netherlands
This guy is amazing, my English teacher told me to listen to one of his songs, I am happy I did. I think nakho bear is my new favorite artist.
This talent is unreal. Amazing work . best song Ive heard from him
Nahko is a legend
I just love you Nahko
I've been coming back to this over and over for eight years. It's crazy how time flies. This remains relevant though. 🙏🏻 Seeing Nahko live twice and meeting him was one of the best things I've done in the last ten years for sure. I miss outdoor festivals and medicinal music and my feet in the grass so much.
Glad you're still enjoying it - feels like just yesterday that we recorded it!
I is feeling this guy,wow what a vibe😎! I love finding gems like this on UA-cam!👌✌❤🇬🇧
His voice makes me cry
I love it! forgiven! Christian!
one of the most amazing things i heard about the Native American people was by a preacher - Derek Prince explained why they were the most oppressed people group of all at the time (i think he said it in late 90s)... It was something amazing how he explained it.. they could not get ahead compared to any other group! (due to generational curses and rejection of the Word of God! Amazing!)
You teached me so much Peace with this Song !
I am a Filipino and I really love this song!
Truly a song for the world over... An infant can relat to the eldest. Pure love.. AGAPE LOVE.
This is the first I ever saw of Nahko a few years ago. He's really broken and flawed, but very talented. Hope he works hard to heal and change, because he has something wonderful to share once he does.
I hope everyone gives him a chance to do it. Many are only judging and not trying to help anyone at all. I was thinking maybe people need to walk both sides for a minute before they can truly find their path. Why should he be any different just because some people elevated him to 'God' status. Of course he would be bound to fall eventually. I'm pretty sure that's what he's been saying all along. We are all still 'learning', himself included.. You're the first sympathetic voice I've seen, I think.
I am still standing by him & will continue to do so!!! We are all related & none of us are perfect & we all need each other!!! How can anyone turn on a brother who has helped so many & now that he needs us who are any of us to judge him?? We still owe him our gratitude & RESPECT!!!
Solitário Surfista do Costa Azul ( Rio das Ostras)... ((RJ))...
Nahko solution....
the world needs Nahko again
I love the passion and honesty on Nahko's music. 💖💖🙌
I come back to this song pretty much every year, such a special piece
Thanks for the comment Ava, glad you’re still enjoying it 🙂
@@GondolaSessions a lot of people are still enjoying it like me : )
Glad to hear it, thanks for the comment :)
Two years ago I stumbled across this video by chance having never heard of Nahko Bear. Two years later I own all of his albums, have seen him in concert twice, and can genuinely say that I have been changed by his music. Thank you for this video and for spreading the love.
This same thing happened to me a few years ago! I'm so grateful for discovering his music! And so here I am revisiting the video that I first saw of him years later! :D
..if war comes to my door, I will be blastin..BOARDROOM mentality, my responsibility
Straight fire 🔥
THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SONGS I HAVE EVER HAD THE PLEASURE OF LISTENING TO! I, TOO, HAVE LEARNED TO BE PEACEFUL BUT I ALSO HAVE MY KNIFE AT MY SIDE! #IAm a WARRIOR BEING! 💪🏽☮️💜💫 Buddha Heart Demon Hand. ALWAYS LEAD WITH AGAPE LOVE, INCLUDING LOVE FOR THE SAFETY OF ALL CHILDREN! ⚖️
May Father masculin, Mother feminine, the Sun, the moon and all the stars bless you always Brother! Thank you for your music, it has truly helped me alot on this journey home! I am a witness! Love&Light 🙏🌈💪🌞🌝🌹👑
Love the message, love the atmosphere love the overall of the whole video and lyrics
Blessing upon him and everyone listening
Great song and a spirit musician, warrior of the spirit. He blows me way as a musician and songwriter.
Medicine for the people have been a stepping stone to appreciate life more pure. Thanky you for being in this existence 💗
Beautiful song
I need your magical music this time in My Life to be stronger!
It is healing to My soul.. Please Nahko.. Please..spread your compassion and your words all even to us in the North (Sweden, Denmark, Norway)
..and all other even too the pingvins💖🌟
Perfect song for 2020, should be the soundtrack for the movement. Remember, it's not just about police brutality, it's about racism at every level. Would love to hear more from the Native Americans, your the true Americans who deserve a much bigger voice. Your people understand the benefits of peace.
valeu Nahko por me acalmar nesses dias de turbulência, você surgiu na hora certa.
Keep going Famo. 7th gen Albertan . Creator kept me alive to get me sober . 19 months . Ima voice that rings loud 🫶🏼🔥💨
Normally a metal head, but since I was introduced to Nako bear my life has had nothing but positive things happen. Medicine 💘
This guys voice is a orchestra of its own.
What is wrong with the 2k of people who dislike this song! This song is so beautiful and true!
One of my favorite songs and I love all of your songs! ❤️ I’m a warrior people! Keep the fight
I’m not feeling the magic the way I did last week. Who is this guy? Our minds set up some beautiful and flawless realities that seem true to us, but are idealistic visions of
Beautiful song, beautiful sole, and he has beautiful fans. You ppl are awesome
wow even to this day this song gos straight to 💓 full of passion " #love #angrystate full of fire full of water flowing around obstacles. Thankyou for your wisdom keep inspiring
I love, love, love Nahko Bear!!! His voice, his unique look, but most of all his messages in the beautiful music❤️💜💛💚💙
Love light 🕯️
I wish I could like this a hundred times!!! So much pure talent in one gondola!
Thanks so much Breanna, glad you dig it!
Have to say, I don't normally listen to something on repeat for 3 weeks, but when i do ...... Its these Gondola sessions and Mr. Nahko Bear !! Awesome
Gareth Livingstone same.. think it's been 3 years though lol
"I will learn to be peaceful, but I'll keep my knife at my side. I'll pray for compassion but if war comes to my door, you know I'll be blasting." #PREACH
Dammm your music, my soul hears it!!
Warrior mentality.. 👍✊✊✊
Need this after protecting the hood. Gotta keep the right mindset... My knife need not have been up against chest, even if it does no damage as I am proud to say it didn't. You are among the medicine I take. I do not trust medical/mental help, nor want it. I AM MY RESPONSIBILITY. I should not be a monster, even if the children I was protecting weren't scared of me... Thank you Nahko. You are a brother to me, in history, and the attitude I need.
So much vulnerability in this, so beautiful, I hear you nahko ❤️
This gave me chills. Absolutely beautiful! 💜
