You guys are absolutely lovely human beings. if the world had more people like you the planet would be a much better place. PIECE AND LOVE TO BOTH OF YOU.
I have to say you guys were born too late. You are hippies in the best sense of the word. Not the clothes or the drugs or the free love, but the love and respect for your fellow man. You remind me of so many of my friends back in my youth. We really believed that love and music could change the world.
I’m from cat Steven’s generation and well said mark. I will add that in the decade of innocence,the 1950’s I was pre 10 years old and believed in love and music and have the house make out parties with your girl to prove it,but My parents generation didn’t agree with the sexual revolution and drugs of the 1960’s and tried to prohibit the life we did live in those times,and yes there was protest by us,the youth Of those times..my mom would find pot,let’s say,flush it down the toilet and think that prevented me from buying more. Truth is the more parents protested our actions the more we did it.i don’t condone free love and drugs but I was a part of it The Woodstock kids and when you try to prohibit the sign of the times the more they met resistance,like anything
❤Myself, being born in 1969, have loved music like this, my whole life. Even as a toddler, standing up in the car, on the seat, dancing along with whatever 8track was playing. ❤❤
Sad Lisa and How Can I Tell You...Father and Son, Moon Shadow, Tea for the Tilleman, so many great songs from my teenage years...when the party was winding down...or out on a date...Cat Stevens was my go to music.
Cat Steven's is one of my favorites. Love his music. This song is what is needed in these times in the world..... unity and harmony. Peace to all ✌️Great reaction as always ❤
Andrei's reaction to this song shows the power of music... How one simple song can change your whole outlook if only for a day or even a moment. Cat Stevens has such an amazing warm ingratiating voice that only enhances his inspiring and thoughtful lyrics. Check out "Wild World" or "Moonshadow" by him next. 👍
Me and all my friends in high school thought that cat expressed all our feelings! We wanted to be true hippies on the peace train, with our tie tie-dyed T-shirts, flared jeans & Long hair our favorite album was tea for the tillerman peace and love😊Gary❤
Cat Stevens has a HUGE catalog of beautiful music with a mastery of lyrics..I have listened to EVERY song by him & strongly suggest others do the same. ❤
I so wish I understood why anyone hates.It hurts my heart,,it scrambles my brain trying to figure it out. Hate must be so exhausting. You both,,keep spreading goodness,kindness and we will pass it on with you
Cat Stevens was the biggest star on the planet in the early seventies and I have every Album that he has made, he was born in London, England and I have seen him three times live, he is still a fantastic Singer/Songwriter, and his songs are all brilliantly written !!!!!
Cat Stevens had a string of fabulous records in the early 70’s - Teaser and the Fire Cat, Tea for the Tiller-man and Catch Bull at Four. You guys will LOVE all of them! Peace (from British Columbia, Canada!)
I'm 73, and an old hippy - we grew up with this vibe ringing in our heads, so I feel your pain Dominika. We have evolved in a constant state of need - to avoid the suffering we saw around us. And it's still intrinsic to our fundamental nature to hoard, as insurance against an uncertain future. That's why we still have wars over territory and power. Amongst those who are already wealthy and powerful yet still direct these conflicts, it's a mental aberration. Amongst the poor and suffering, it makes some kind of sense. All the time our leaders maintain a state of social inequity they'll be able to justify our complicity in their personal games for ultimate power. We're trapped in a game directed by just a few thousand madmen. Love and peace to you both.
Who knew that the generation that preached peace and love would be the generation that couldn't get it right in the 50+ years since this song came out. What sounds so simple in this song seems to have escaped our grasp in real life
My wife loved Cat Stevens, and especially this song. Sadly we lost her 12 yrs ago, But the ideals of permormers like Cat Stevens, and others, were an absolute joy and reason to hope back in the 60s & 70s. Need to being more of that aura and philosophy back around again.
Stevens formally converted to Islam on 23 December 1977, taking the name Yusuf Islam in 1978. Yusuf is the Arabic rendition of the name Joseph; he stated that he "always loved the name Joseph" and was particularly drawn to the story of Joseph in the Qur'an. You can tell thru the music his path was clear.😇
I completely agree with you. I grew up in the 60s and 70s and I don't understand how we still haven't chosen peace yet either. I'm so happy to watch you two and your reactions.
Cat Stevens/Yusuf Islam knew how to spread the word of peace through his music, and still does, he's still busy and even appeared at Glastonbury for the first time last year. Nice reaction from you guys✌
I loved Cat Stevens growing up but I keep hearing terrible things about him I didn't know.Goggle why is Cat Stevens not allowed back in the USA.I am hoping you or someone can tell me it's all just a terrible rumor .
Spread the word of peace? The same Yusuf Islam who called for the death of Salman Rushdie? Beautiful music but a shallow unpleasant man. ua-cam.com/video/V2Upfg2bk_M/v-deo.htmlsi=LcMfoEH9g2vPo0OT
Same here. 1959 and I agree that we were blessed with perfect timing for a mountain of incredible music. This music takes me back to my first job as a boy working in a theater. Per request, the really nice manager would play Cat Stevens loudly over the intercom for me and a classmate as we cleaned the auditorium. Just one example that such wonderful happy music memories are priceless.
Enjoyed your reactions to Cat Stevens'"Peace Train". Cat came out of nowhere ,IMHO, in '71 w the Tea for the Tillerman LP and was constantly on the radio, AM & FM, for next 5 years. Great compositions and performances to check out. My faves include "Where Do the Children Play","Miles From Nowhere", "Father and Son", "Sitting" and "Angelsea". Mostly acoustic w heartfelt lyrics. Cat moved everyone w his original presentation for his songs + a great voice.
Cat Stevens (or Neil Diamond) sang me to sleep almost every night when I was young. I loved this song in particular. I was excited to see you were reacting to it. And I agree with Andrei, there is always going to be evil in this world. Each of us can choose to be the light, the good in our world. It makes life better for everyone. Thanks for sharing your light with us.
He was actually born in London, so officially he's British, to a Greek Cypriot father and Swedish mother, both of whom had emigrated there, and who lived there in London and operated a restaurant -- which they continued to operate and live above even after they divorced, when Cat (Yusuf) was eight. Although his father was Greek Orthodox and his mother was Baptist, they sent Cat to Catholic school for his education. I guess we'd have to call him a citizen of the world.
The world would be a better one, if everyone would have heared this masterpiece. Thanks for your great reaction (as always), thanks to Cat Stevens for giving us such great songs!
Fifty years ago my friends and I were saying the same thing - why can't we all get along & live in peace. As long as there are people like you two, others & myself there is hope. Cheers & peace from Canada
One of my most favorite songs ever from one of my most favorite artists ever. Cat Stevens wrote SO many beautiful songs. He was (and still is) a seeker who shared his personal journey with the world. Every track from his Tea For The Tillerman album was just wonderful. Thank you for sharing this one. 🙂
Love your reaction. When I learned the guitar, back in the day, self-taught, as a kid, I spent my money on a big reddish songbook from Cat Stevens, listening to his tunes and playing along. This is a favorite of mine. Thanks for the time travel.
A beautiful song that crescendos into a huge message of coming together with love and happiness that leaves you higher than you were 3 mins ago. This is real music!
"The Wind" by Cat Stevens... whether on the channel or not... less than 2 minutes of your life you won't regret. Great reactions as always... keep up the great work! :)
This guitar still gets me today and gives me goosebumps. Despite the profound topic, the song brings courage and strength and radiates magic. Cat Stevens, Led Zeppelin, ELP, ..., the list is almost endless if you were open to many styles of music. As a teenager, I always didn't have enough money and my parents weren't happy. As I've written before, there are so many great songs from Cat; “Father And Son” is also a special gem. Addendum: I have great respect for his biography, even though I don't know many details. All the best Cat Stevens!!!
It's nice to hear these songs again but there is nothing like living them and watching them climb up and down the charts. What a time period from 1964 to 1975, give or take a few years on each side. To answer your question; we can't live in peace because it is in our human nature to destroy, especially our fellow man. It takes something very special to allow a person NOT to be like that. You're right, Andrei, it's because of evil people in this world but we are all capable of hitting back hard if we don't understand the concept of loving even your enemy.
So moving -- I cry with joy and sadness every time I hear this song, since I was 10 years old when it came out. You guys are wonderful!! And you see, Dominica, he felt exactly like you -- "WHY? WHY? WHY?" Me too. It's coming soon -- it really is -- you will be so pleasantly shocked and surprised!!
Joy joy joy. The song celebrates love and joy as it pleads for peace for us all. Daring to be optimistic and infuse real innocent hope in a big way. Can we? We can. I swear we can. Hope is so important. Nice to be reminded of hope back when this came out and now.
Cat Stevens has a large catalog of fantastic music. He is an incredible songwriter and musician. Father and Son is one of my favorites, and although I was grown and had left home long before the song came out, it still expressed the generation gap and the pressures that any young person feels when their parent or parents try to live their lives through them.
Thank you for reacting to this beautiful song of hope. Maybe reality bites but we can always hope for peace. I remember this song during the Vietnam War and it gave me hope that soon it would be over and we could live in peace. I'm a dreamer but dreams can come true. PEACE!!!!!
In 1971 some (53) years ago. Cat Stevens Folk Rocker extraordinaire had one of the greatest albums titled "Tea for the Tillerman." On that album was "Peace Train." The Viet Nam War was still going on with protest happening in the UK and the US. His way of protesting the Wars and Police Actions around the world was to write an Anti-War song. And ended up writing Peace Train while he was traveling on TEE (Trans Europe Express). Florida USA.
No artist like Cat Stevens. His handful of albums in his early career are, in my opinion, unmatched in level of beauty and talent. Lyrics, melodies, harmonies, his voice, character, just amazing.
**Beautiful Reaction** & Yes **Dominika** i agree & feel the same way you do & **Wish** ALL people could live together in **Peace** **Live & Let Live** & but yes i am just as bewildered as you as to the **Why** it can NOT be that way **ManyManyHugz&LuvzToYouBoth** & **Hoping** ONE day it will be peace & all getting along & just all **Beautiful** ALL on the peace train!
you guys are aboard your mini peace train with your wonderful reactions ✌️... cat stevens makes you feel grateful for life and want to keep it as beautiful as it can be
I absolutely love the two of you! You both obviously love, care, and respect each other in a way that really resonates with most of us. Please share your secret...we want what you have!!❤
Oh my goodness. Decades after his peak he is still a favourite; Morning has Broken, Two Fine people, Tuesdays Dead, Longer Boats, Sad Lisa, On the Road to Find Out, Into White, Oh Very Young, Moonshadow, Where Do the Children Play, Father and Son, Wild World. Incidentally this song was covered by 10,000 Maniacs but dropped from their line up when Cat Stevens (Yusuf) comment about Salman Rushdies book The Satanic Versus was misinterpreted
As I mentioned in your previous review, one of the most emotional songs Cat Stevens performs is "Sad Lisa". Check out his live performance in 2015 (Festival de Vina) . Many in the audience were in tears because it was so moving!
Cat Stevens was in a class of his own; simply amazing singer/songwriter. FYI American folk group 10,000 Maniacs do an amaaaazing version of this song! 👌
You need to hear one of his most famous songs - " Father and Son"
I agree. I think the video is distracting. So I suggest studio version like they did here
A beautiful reaction to this wonderful song.
You guys are absolutely lovely human beings. if the world had more people like you the planet would be a much better place. PIECE AND LOVE TO BOTH OF YOU.
I KNOW I SPELLED PEACE WRONG. LOL
This is why 70's Music was Amazing !
He was out in the late sixties too.
1000% agreed, the best decade for music, no question 💯
"Where do the children play" is a favorite of mine .
I wish everyone could ride the Peace Train ❤ 😊Such a positive song! Its so easy to just be nice & make others happy!
Best reaction couple ever. Open hearts and minds. And comments hit the mark.
I have to say you guys were born too late. You are hippies in the best sense of the word. Not the clothes or the drugs or the free love, but the love and respect for your fellow man. You remind me of so many of my friends back in my youth. We really believed that love and music could change the world.
✌️♥️🇵🇸⚖️🌍🕊️📣
I’m from cat Steven’s generation and well said mark.
I will add that in the decade of innocence,the 1950’s
I was pre 10 years old and believed in love and music and have the house
make out parties with your girl to prove it,but
My parents generation didn’t agree with the sexual revolution and drugs of the 1960’s
and tried to prohibit the life we did live in those times,and yes there was protest by us,the youth
Of those times..my mom would find pot,let’s say,flush it down the toilet and think that prevented me from buying more.
Truth is the more parents protested our actions the more we did it.i don’t condone free love and drugs but I was a part of it
The Woodstock kids and when you try to prohibit the sign of the times the more they met resistance,like anything
Truth
✨️🎶🙏🎶✨️
But it's just as bad now as it was then if not worse; there needs to be something more in the equation before people stop destroying each other.
One of the best Folk singer/songwriter in music history.
him and Joh Prine are untouchable
He is so under rated.
❤Myself, being born in 1969, have loved music like this, my whole life. Even as a toddler, standing up in the car, on the seat, dancing along with whatever 8track was playing. ❤❤
"Oh Very Young" is a great one from early Cat Stevens.
Great song - but so very sad.
Along with Father and son Oh very young is my favourite.
Sad Lisa and How Can I Tell You...Father and Son, Moon Shadow, Tea for the Tilleman, so many great songs from my teenage years...when the party was winding down...or out on a date...Cat Stevens was my go to music.
Yes, a fav of mine!
We need the peace train today more than ever.
Cat Steven's is one of my favorites. Love his music. This song is what is needed in these times in the world..... unity and harmony. Peace to all ✌️Great reaction as always ❤
I so agree..Love is the way 💗😇
There's nothing peaceful about Stevens calling for the death of Salman Rushdie.
Excellent song!! Love Cat Stevens. Peace Train was a Top Ten hit ❤❤
Beautiful song with a beautiful message
This is a perfect example of how music is a universal language, no matter what language this could be sung in it would still make you feel good!
Andrei's reaction to this song shows the power of music... How one simple song can change your whole outlook if only for a day or even a moment.
Cat Stevens has such an amazing warm ingratiating voice that only enhances his inspiring and thoughtful lyrics.
Check out "Wild World" or "Moonshadow" by him next. 👍
They should make kids at school sing this happy , beautiful song every morning. A real song of love and joy. Bring it on!
Me and all my friends in high school thought that cat expressed all our feelings! We wanted to be true hippies on the peace train, with our tie tie-dyed T-shirts, flared jeans & Long hair our favorite album was tea for the tillerman peace and love😊Gary❤
Wonderful reaction as always. You guys are nothing short of precious!!
"Tea For the Tillerman" (1970-
Remastered)
is a masterpiece.
My favorite.
Cat Stevens has a HUGE catalog of beautiful music with a mastery of lyrics..I have listened to EVERY song by him & strongly suggest others do the same. ❤
Cat Stevens was born Stephen Demetre Georgiou in 1948, to a Greek Cypriot father and a Swedish mother.
I so wish I understood why anyone hates.It hurts my heart,,it scrambles my brain trying to figure it out. Hate must be so exhausting. You both,,keep spreading goodness,kindness and we will pass it on with you
Cat Stevens is genius. Many more wonderful tunes to explore.
Cat Stevens was the biggest star on the planet in the early seventies and I have every Album that he has made, he was born in London, England and I have seen him three times live, he is still a fantastic Singer/Songwriter, and his songs are all brilliantly written !!!!!
His song Where do the Children Play? Is fantastic.
Peace and love is what matters! Peace and love to you two!
A MUST HEAR Classic track,, Cat Stevens "Miles From Nowhere" ❤
This was my cancer treatment song. It is an amazing piece. Smiles to you!
@@jessicaleblanc-nh1yl hope you are well.
Some of my favorite songs from him are Lady D’Arbanville and Katmandu. So many wonderful songs and he’s still making music ❤️❤️
Cat Stevens had a string of fabulous records in the early 70’s - Teaser and the Fire Cat, Tea for the Tiller-man and Catch Bull at Four. You guys will LOVE all of them!
Peace (from British Columbia, Canada!)
I'm 73, and an old hippy - we grew up with this vibe ringing in our heads, so I feel your pain Dominika.

Apart from the lyrics and song structure, the production of this song is amazing. It's such a well crafted presentation.
My wife loved Cat Stevens, and especially this song. Sadly we lost her 12 yrs ago, But the ideals of permormers like Cat Stevens, and others, were an absolute joy and reason to hope back in the 60s & 70s. Need to being more of that aura and philosophy back around again.
You HAVE to see the live performance of this song! He performs with such passion 💕💕
I agree. Wish this world could just get along! So tired of all the fighting and hatred,...it's exhausting! LOVE Cat Stevens!
You are 100% correct lets just live in peace in our own lands
I can never get enough of this song or turn it up loud enough ❤
I have been loving Cat Stevens ever since 1967 and Matthew and Son. I can see why you love him too.
50 year old song still relevant today. Great message from an outstanding performer.
Everything Cat sang was like this, very positive. You guys must listen to ALL of his music. PEACE!
The best bit is the guitar at the end - quite beautiful!
Stevens formally converted to Islam on 23 December 1977, taking the name Yusuf Islam in 1978. Yusuf is the Arabic rendition of the name Joseph; he stated that he "always loved the name Joseph" and was particularly drawn to the story of Joseph in the Qur'an.
You can tell thru the music his path was clear.😇
Yes! Cat Stevens gets through to anyone with feeling's..👏🥰✌️
I have no favorite song of Cat Stevens, I really enjoy all of them, truly.
I completely agree with you. I grew up in the 60s and 70s and I don't understand how we still haven't chosen peace yet either. I'm so happy to watch you two and your reactions.
Cat Stevens/Yusuf Islam knew how to spread the word of peace through his music, and still does, he's still busy and even appeared at Glastonbury for the first time last year. Nice reaction from you guys✌

I was born in 1959, so I was a child of the '60s and a teenager in the '70s. My timing for experiencing great music was perfect.
Same here. 1959 and I agree that we were blessed with perfect timing for a mountain of incredible music. This music takes me back to my first job as a boy working in a theater. Per request, the really nice manager would play Cat Stevens loudly over the intercom for me and a classmate as we cleaned the auditorium. Just one example that such wonderful happy music memories are priceless.
It's amazing to see you both listening to Peace Train for the first time, and to remind us all the message of this song is timeless.
Cat Stevens wrote the song First Cut is the Deepest which Rod Stewart had a massive hit with .
Enjoyed your reactions to Cat Stevens'"Peace Train". Cat came out of nowhere ,IMHO, in '71 w the Tea for the Tillerman LP and was constantly on the radio, AM & FM, for next 5 years. Great compositions

Saw him at Bolton Odeon UK in 67 with Hendrix and Walker Brothers then in 72 London when he was a superstar and I met him. He's brilliant
I love Morning has Broken. I used to listen to this LP record when I was doing my chores on a Saturday morning as a child.
Fifty years ago my friends and I were saying the same thing - why can't we all get along & live in peace. As long as there are people like you two, others & myself there is hope.

Keyon his guitar-it holds the entire tune together. He was great, and still is..
'Father And Son' is another Cat Stevens song l think you'd both love ❤
Foxes and fossils does a great tribute to this song.They recently went over 100,000,000 views to their catalog of songs on UA-cam.
A beautiful song that crescendos into a huge message of coming together with love and happiness that leaves you higher than you were 3 mins ago. This is real music!
I will ride the peace train with you, Miss Dominika! Being a child of the 70's, we all rode it. We truly believed we could change the world.
"The Wind" by Cat Stevens... whether on the channel or not... less than 2 minutes of your life you won't regret. Great reactions as always... keep up the great work! :)
This guitar still gets me today and gives me goosebumps. Despite the profound topic, the song brings courage and strength and radiates magic.

Addendum: I have great respect for his biography, even though I don't know many details. All the best Cat Stevens!!!

Love and Peace out.
Cat Stevens is fantastic... "RUBY LOVE" is a WONDERFUL tune to check out!!
So moving -- I cry with joy and sadness every time I hear this song, since I was 10 years old when it came out. You guys are wonderful!! And you see, Dominica, he felt exactly like you -- "WHY? WHY? WHY?" Me too. It's coming soon -- it really is -- you will be so pleasantly shocked and surprised!!
Joy joy joy. The song celebrates love and joy as it pleads for peace for us all. Daring to be optimistic and infuse real innocent hope in a big way. Can we? We can. I swear we can. Hope is so important. Nice to be reminded of hope back when this came out and now.
"Father and Son" a must do. Remember, if not for the bad, you would never know what good is. Keep riding the peace train.
There's no denying it, that song is a masterpiece!
Cat Stevens has a large catalog of fantastic music. He is an incredible songwriter and musician. Father and Son is one of my favorites, and although I was grown and had left home long before the song came out, it still expressed the generation gap and the pressures that any young person feels when their parent or parents try to live their lives through them.
This is great to see Sunday morning!
Thank you for reacting to this beautiful song of hope. Maybe reality bites but we can always hope for peace. I remember this song during the Vietnam War and it gave me hope that soon it would be over and we could live in peace. I'm a dreamer but dreams can come true. PEACE!!!!!
In 1971 some (53) years ago. Cat Stevens Folk Rocker extraordinaire had one of the greatest albums titled "Tea for the Tillerman." On that album was "Peace Train."

Spread the message of this Opus. The message has never been more important or urgent!!! 🙏✌️
No artist like Cat Stevens. His handful of albums in his early career are, in my opinion, unmatched in level of beauty and talent. Lyrics, melodies, harmonies, his voice, character, just amazing.
Masterpiece♥️🌹🎶
My older sister (born 1955) and just about every one of her girlfriends were crazy Cat Stevens fans in the early 70s.
You both are so.true and.honest,absolutely love listening to you😊
Great reaction, great song. You go Dominica, give that woman the microphone , she's got the message.
**Beautiful Reaction** & Yes **Dominika** i agree & feel the same way you do & **Wish** ALL people could live together in **Peace** **Live & Let Live** & but yes i am just as bewildered as you as to the **Why** it can NOT be that way **ManyManyHugz&LuvzToYouBoth** & **Hoping** ONE day it will be peace & all getting along & just all **Beautiful** ALL on the peace train!
you guys are aboard your mini peace train with your wonderful reactions ✌️... cat stevens makes you feel grateful for life and want to keep it as beautiful as it can be
It's a shame that over 50 years later we're still trying to get that Peace Train rolling.
I absolutely love the two of you! You both obviously love, care, and respect each other in a way that really resonates with most of us. Please share your secret...we want what you have!!❤
Oh my goodness. Decades after his peak he is still a favourite; Morning has Broken, Two Fine people, Tuesdays Dead, Longer Boats, Sad Lisa, On the Road to Find Out, Into White, Oh Very Young, Moonshadow, Where Do the Children Play, Father and Son, Wild World.
Incidentally this song was covered by 10,000 Maniacs but dropped from their line up when Cat Stevens (Yusuf) comment about Salman Rushdies book The Satanic Versus was misinterpreted
We all have the right to change with lives passages & I too was taken back by the way all things passed for Yusuf
I was lucky enough to see the cat
Cat Stevens is so great. His music is his own.
To quote Ringo “Peace and Love”. ✌🏻
As I mentioned in your previous review, one of the most emotional songs Cat Stevens performs is "Sad Lisa". Check out his live performance in 2015 (Festival de Vina) . Many in the audience were in tears because it was so moving!
Yeah, she said it all. Why can't we just all get along. Another beautiful song of peace is From A Distance by Bette Midler.
Oh Very Young, Wild World, Another Saturday Night, and Moonshadow.
In 1969 my band was recording at Criteria Studios in Miami and Cat Stevens had the studio next to us recording his album. That was so cool.
Peace Train, people. Let's all jump on! You with this little'ole Nana from Texas? Come on young 'ens! Sending hugs love and good vibes.
This is my favorite Cat Stevens song. It was a radio hit. He has many more hits, only a small notch below this one, IMO
The incomparable Cat Stevens!!!
Cat Stevens was in a class of his own; simply amazing singer/songwriter.
FYI American folk group 10,000 Maniacs do an amaaaazing version of this song! 👌
