a moment of silence for those who haven’t found this video
Me until 30sec ago! Thx
Pppppppppypppppppppppppppppñppñpppppppppppppñpppñpppppñppp
Dead😂
Just found it. Wow!
Mvula's original is better than this
Damn, X brought me to something amazing
JoeBro915 this type of comment is something he fr would’ve loved
Fax bro
And here I am 2 years later 😊 #LLJ
@@miss_d_joe still here. he won't be forgotten
Same! Young bro never got to grow, never got to see what's next but the one in front of the gun lives forever!
jesus fucking christ, I'm crying.
I'm with tears. What the hell is happening?! What the hell is this music?!
+Yuri Vilas Boas I AGREE. THIS IS SURREAL!
i got the same..
Next time you wipe your ass don't forget to report it here as well.
and to think some people moan about the fact that music in the 21st century is crap and not as good as previous decades, ha ha ha! this stunning!!!
Yuri, my first thought was "How can he love this music and not God?" But then I realized you do, but He's still working on you. (and me.)
For me this is a spiritual hymn. So beautiful. I'm not a religious person, but I do find it filled with a positive spirit, from the singing, the lyrics, and the music. Just perfection. Thank you to everyone involved in the production.
Respect
Maybe this religion. I used to be Christian fundamentalist and after leaving a poisening god I can't say that I believe. But in these moments I do. Beyond words.
@@carlosclaptrix God is Love. Don't stop looking for Him... and he will reveal to you
For me too.
This may be the most beautiful song I have ever heard in my life. Thank you to everybody involved in this. Wow.
It really is one of the bests, although I recommend you to listen Ocean wide canyon deep from Jacob Collier, Laura performs there too. Prepare to cry like a baby
Damn, when the solos end and the band comes together... Tears swelled up in my eyes! I found out about Snarky Puppy yesterday and couldn't be happier!
It's been two years since this comment, and I hope you found more from them. I can't wait for a new Family Dinner.
I also just found Snarky Puppy yesterday 🥳 and I'm hooked
Same 🙌🏽
I found out about Snarky Puppy yesterday as well and I can't get enough of them :-)
I noticed my eyes were watery at the end of this, too
I went to music heaven just now
+Bella Blair DITTO!!!
+Bella Blair we are two now ...
yup
What a collection of amazing keyboarders.....
*keyboardists
*electronicpianokeypressers
Definitely a venue where everyone loves their job.
Hey, they are synthesizers but yes there are some Keyboards and a piano
*keyboardisters
I love looking at everyone in the room enjoying the shit out of this stellar performance.
Nice letters.
Larnell at 4:35 is probably the best summary of this song as a whole.
I've been going through a very hard time in life rn. I don’t even know how to open up anymore. But this song has always held my hand through it. It's tiring being tough all the time. So when I want to feel I come back here. Tonight after a REALLY long time I am going to pray to my God. If nothing I Don't want tp feel so wretched and alone. Thank you.
I think I might be allergic to this song and performance. My eyes start to run and sometimes followed by chills... goosebumps. Usually the same moments... which narrows the cause of allergy reaction :)
+Sigurdór Guðmundsson
Ahhh...can be.. I have similar reactions. :-)
yes alert the CDC... it's spreading
I dedicate this song to all the Earthlings that suffer and die every day and night. Watch Earthlings full documentary and educate the children the next generation they need to know the truth. Watch COWSPIRACY sustainability secret full documentary make the connection. The planet needs us she's dying. Remember we reap what we sow
Who are you telling ... my allergy meds need to be upped or something, because my eyes are red and watery and I have a lump in my throat when I contemplate the lyrics to this song while listening to this perfect composition.
Me too! Especially at the key solos... omg!
Laura's vocals are so hauntingly beautiful, hands down my favorite song on the album.
Holy cow...I thought I've heard music before. The Lingus key solo was the very first piece of music to bring tears to my eyes by shear perfection; this song made me cry with joy for the whole 6 minutes. Snarky Puppy, there are not enough thanks in existence I could give ya for everything you've done for the world!
Couldnt agree more.
Would have never found Laura Mvula had it not been for this great band.
I forgot everything.
What I was thinking.
What I was doing.
And even after the song is over,
I don't need anything.
It's going to ring in my mind,
as I sit here the beautiful in-between.
Probably my favorite song from the album.
i know what you mean, but there are so many superb tracks...A truly superb album..Snarky are probably the most under rated band in existence.
Laura Mvula is a singular talent - a once in a generation talent - and I feel lucky to have lived on this earth while she was here - and of course Snarky Puppy - no equal.
This song is beyond incredible.
It's like it's more than music.
OMG this is the closest thing to heaven in a song or music arrangement. my favorite part is 3:44 to 3:37 the compliment from the synth with the piano, I'm just wondering if that was planned or it just happened in that moment but this hole arrangement was crazy!!!!!! love it.
3:44 to 3:47
Beautiful arrangement of a beautiful song, by the beautiful and great Laura Mvula. This is fine musical dining. Laura Mvula is a very underrated singer/songwriter/composer/arranger. To my ears, she is beyond terrific. Well done Snarky Puppy, for recognizing Laura's genius and doing great justice to her song!
This song tears me up. So beautiful. Fav song on her album. ❤️
Bill, Cory, Shaun, Justin. It's like they're one mind. Those solos really flowed one after another.
Really great
Not that they aren't all amazing on all the various keys (they are), but I thought it was particularly nice that they had Cory on the grand, Shaun on organ and Bill on moog. "Normally" I feel like it would be Bill on grand, Cory on organ and Shaun on the moog so it was cool to see them mix it up. Gave it some extra punch
*no intended slight to Justin who always slays on the moog
This has to be one of my most favorite songs snarky puppy covered. The depth of the words are so beautiful.
Where it all started "X"
I'm completely obsessed with this song ... one of the most moving performances I've heard in years.
It's really difficult for me to listen to this song without breaking into tears. good selection, SP
love her vocals . found out about her through xxxtentacion’s song - vice city
Congrats, you’ve now found the better artist
@@rossmusic25 lmao maybe bigger. Everyone has an opinion though
@@rossmusic25 x was legitimately one of the most versatile artist of the last 20 years. He showed so many different sides of his music is such a short time
@@moneymoves263 Yeah but for everything he’s done Snarky Puppy has done WAAAAAAAAAY more genre bending
@@rossmusic25 snarky puppy isn’t an artist they’re a group lol. The comment was talking about Laura
The lockdown song that keeps me going.
Just suddenly found myself in musical heaven.
I was doing my organic chemistry report while listening to Snarky Puppy and this song starts playing and suddenly I was move to tears, what a power in this women's voices, absolutely a masterpiece
Coryyyyyyyyyyy!!! Eargasm!!! Love laura M'vula xoxoxo
This has got to be my favorite song on the album
O.M.G. I love Laura and I've heard her song so so many times, but this version is so so so much more than I expected. Snarky Puppy is ridiculousness!! This is so beautiful, I have tears in my eyes
2020 Anyone.......
No
choco _team 😔....Life goes on. 🤷🏿♂️
yeah
Here with ya ❤️
Yes mehn
I shattered in a thousand pieces... thx Laura, thx Puppy...
The keyboards solos was beyond the definition of beautiful, it brought tear to my eyes
This is an absolutely beautifully tragic song. Breaks my heart and healed it at the same time.
I think this is my favourite track off the album, beautiful.
oh my goodness when the trumpets start kicking in after the piano soloists gosh pls God take me
Best track on album. The Moog melody, the Soli, everything. Definitely best track.
One of the most instantly beautiful songs I’ve ever heard.

rip x
LONGLIVEX💔
Rip Jahseh💔
I miss jah 💔
:(
Anyone who can remain unmoved after 4:05 doesn't have a soul.
Holy cow! I just heard this song for the first time and quite honestly I'm speechless. I had the extreme pleasure of seeing Snarky Puppy on May 17th, just three days ago, and they were absolutely incredible. It would've been great if they had played this song, but I don't think they tour with these special guest musicians. I got to meet Shaun Martin after the show! I told him that I could listen to him do those "pitch bends" all night. I couldn't tell you what he said to me because my senses were on the overload setting.
Wow!
Awesome keyboardist and organist. But what i love most is the dramatic nature post-interlude with the instruments, Mvula’s vocals, and amazing horns. Have loved this mix for many years now. Much love and respect Ms. Mvula, and brilliant to collab with Snarky Puppy.
MUM passed this morning love this beautiful song to my MUM
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💙
I cry every time 😢😢😢
It gave me goosebumps... Excellent! i call this MUSIC!
+Yves Léonce KOUASSI me too! endless chills
Wow Laura you’re Gods gift to this planet! Thank you for serving us with such beauty 🙏🏾
This is honestly the most beautiful song I have ever heard in my whole life....Idk how I missed this. I love Snarky Puppy! But this right here....This is a treasure
Angelicals
I love the moment after the solos, when it resolves to another refrain and all faces of the musicians are shining. Beautiful!
Ecstasy...its like...its like... loosing your mind and finding your soul...
Ma - Afrika Kekana Yes you dont even know what to do with yourself after that
That;s so fantastic that I'm thrilled to the extent of not being able to control my tears here,t ears of pure enjoyment.
Hey there you, shattered in a thousand pieces
Weeping in the darkest nights
Hey there you, try to stand up on your own two feet
And stumble into the sky
When the lights go out and you're on your own
How you're gonna make it through till the morning sun?
Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, lead you to the other side
Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, heaven's gonna turn the tide
Hey there you, looking for a brighter season
Need to lay your burden down
Hey there you, drowning in a helpless feeling
Buried under deeper ground
When the lights go out it's a waiting game
Never gonna see a day when your world will change
Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, lead you to the other side
Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, heaven's gonna turn the tide
Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, lead you to the other side
Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, heaven's gonna turn the tide
This is the very definition of class
How could I have missed this before? This seems to be healing my soul. Gorgeous !
missing the stars in these the darkest nights....
4:00 my face at every keyboard solo
hahaha definitely!!! I was almost confused as to why he was the only one reacting this way.
The art of song personified. A haven in the nightmare of the world. Thank you!
3:35 smile of approval from Laura Mvula
I'm stunned. Laura Mvula, yes. But this.... perfection.
This is absolutely "other worldly"! Amazing Music!
God Laura is so fuckin beautiful, this collaboration is one of my absolute favorites. The emotion in this one is raw....despite perfect execution... conveyed in the moment.
Cory's solo still gets me every time!
Ideal perfection. Nothing needed to be added and nothing could be taken away. THE FEELS ON THIS....*sigh*
I always listen to this song when im going my dark times in my life.... 2020 has not been easy
If it's any consolation, there are many of us that are struggling right now. Those of us that do survive it may come out stronger on the other side. 💜
Same. She did a whole album with an orchestra (including this song) and I always come back to it for comfort and warmth ... stay safe out there
Chin up. Focus on positivity even in hard times. You control your mindset. Don't forget to smile.
the colours of their voices blend so beautifully...
4:15 my boy said "I got 5 seconds to hit this bong."
LOL
***** he was going to the brass section to play
This brings soul to humanity. A life saving piece of music for many.
RIP X🖤🙏
Her eyes here 4:43 look like she's literally looking at (and singing to) the moon!! I'm blown away!
I seem depressed, always being bothered never less keepin me out of prison and puttin me to the test.
Hang in there, friend.
This group...this...GROUP! Thank you Snarky.
I'm in love...if anyone needs me I'll be in the bushes outside of Laura Mvula house.
I'll come with you!!!!
+Em Bediako Find your own bushes...lol
Lol thanks for the laugh
You are on the right path-she's from my country-my traditional cousin!
@Humain ...
Just incredible.
5:10 this part and the solo section moved my spirit. Wow. Simply beautiful ❤️
This could very easily be my favorite song on this album
Came from x, stayed for everything I found. :)
Awesome, awesome, awesome, in any kind, thank you SP, you are the best !
What a beautiful, uplifting, Jesus filled message....The instruments are vibrating with my soul! The lyrics are felt deep within my spirit!!!!!
I’m glad I’m not the only one who low-key goes to church on this song, lol! 😄🙌🏾 But it’s true, not only is the music gorgeous, but the lyrics are poignant, evocative, and uplifting, to a level that verges on spiritual ministry. This song is a delight and a comfort on multiple levels.
This has nothing to do with Jesus. This is about looking forward, not 2000 years backwards
Came for my weekly dosis of this song.
A special shout out to Shaun Martin on organ. So often in these videos taking what seems to be a supportive role, but is everyone here just a virtuoso.
so many goosebumps during this one
I coulda sworn the solos went; Shaun, Cory, Bill, Justin based on sound alone
Nope! Mike, Shaun, Cory, Justin! Close though! They all kinda swapped instruments. Normally Cory takes the organ. He had the piano on this one.
The only one who can't pull that trick is Justin...great player tho still.
+Josh Jones he does play trumpet too ;)
Yeah I think Shaun won
I actually think it was Bill, Shaun, Cory, then Justin. You can see Bill's cuffs during his solo. You know Mike usually sticks to the bass line.. Genius work
We use this show for our ballad in our Indoor Winds program. As a senior, it's my favorite ballad that I've ever played, won us our state championships and now we're heading to world with it. Thank you! On my channel you'll hear it, called "On The Nature of Relativity". Beautiful clarinet solo from the jazz section here too.
wow when i listened to it, i thought i knew who was playing which solo. Bill and Cory really surprised me with their abilities to play different styles. Me Gusta!
Good lord this music😍
This is my lullaby every night before I sleep. I suffer from insomnia a lot and I find it very relax listening to this specific version. Thank you Snarky Puppy for making this version of the song, appreciate GroundUp for not putting ANY ads on this. Appreciate it A LOT. BIG THANKS!!!
this was the best of soul song the who touch the deeper of my soul i listened it a million time god job snarky robert on drum with larnell the feel of that greats men is too high really love
Hello to everyone, who’s enjoying this song in 2019🌟💕💫⏯
Here I am! :) Hello!
Hey there you
sup from 2020 things are terrible here! but this song is still good.
2021 now life still mad
I discovered a few days ago, but I run several times a week. Beautiful played and sung! The song also speaks in 2021!
Wow!!! Breath-taking ....what an amazing collaboration!!
Cant stop listening. Can’t stop crying.
i really love the way how they do and fell the music. They are my new inspiration in life.
This is classic Snarky Puppy. The vocals of Laura Mvula as so buttery. This is comparable to any of the vocal performances on Family Dinner Pt 1.
I love Michelle Willis voice

I wasn’t familiar with Laura before I attended the film screening, and this performance completely stopped me in my tracks. The best word I can use to describe it is “glorious”. Now, having listened to the earlier versions of this song, I appreciate the modifications Michael League made to it. I LOVE this entire album, but this song in particular left me so inspired!
+Mechum22 And I hope it’s not too attention-whorish of me to say that this song inspired me to remix the well-known Christian hymn “How Great Thou Art”. Feel free to check it out on my channel! --> watch?v=xqTDMZh78R4
Respect and thank you❤
Definitely one of the best ones on the album!
why am i almost crying, when i listen this song.. wooow
