    I still remember walking around Chicago back in 04...maybe 05? and this guy invited me into this small club with the promise of great live music (it was the middle of the week and they were just letting people in free to fill the place). Out on stage walks this Hasidic Jew and I was wondering what I'd gotten into... it's still one of the greatest live performances I've ever seen!

    I remember 11 years ago I had turned 18 and just come out of the foster care system. I had no idea what to do next, with no guidance. I was lost and afraid, until I came across this song that pulled me out of that fear and gave me so much hope. I immediately had to go buy the album, which I did. Any way I had it on repeat for months, and somehow I got so motivated, and woke up every morning with strength and hope. Thank bro for helping me through those ruff times!

    One of the most wholesome and Godly moments I've ever witnessed in music... Was Matisyahu performing at the Jewish family Festival in mountain View California, when he was performing his young boy came on stage and embraced his Father, and instead of sending his son away to perform, he held his boy.
    There's nothing more important to a boy than his fathers love.
    Will always support Matisyahu after witnessing that moment.

    Yeah, the studio version is nice, but this right here is human experience on full display. That feels like someone having a psychological breakthrough and a reconciliation with their faith and love of music. This is his unrestrained self on display for all to see and then you can sense the people in the crowd connecting with his authenticity just like we are listening to it like 14 years later. This track is a musical treasure and I'm so glad they recorded it!

      It's a man worshiping God with his music. "Sing to my God songs of love and healing"
      "Thunder! You feel it in your chest! You put my mind at ease and my fears to rest"
      This man is worshiping. He's having a religious experience as he comes close to the presence of God. Proselytizing, pouring out his faith to the room, hopefully illuminating the hearts of those in the room.
      "Give myself to you from the essence of my being"
      "Make room for His love and the fire gone blaze!"

    Lyrics:
    You're all that I have and you're all that I need
    Each and every day I pray to get to know you please
    I want to be close to you, yes I'm so hungry
    You're like water for my soul when it gets thirsty
    Without you there's no me
    You're the air that I breathe
    Sometimes the world is dark and I just can't see
    With these, demons surround all around to bring me down to negativity
    But I believe, yes I believe, I said I believe
    I'll stand on my own two feet
    Won't be brought down on one knee
    Fight with all of my might and get these demons to flee
    Hashem's rays fire blaze burn bright and I believe
    Out of darkness comes light, twilight unto the heights
    Crown Heights burnin' up all through till midnight
    Said, thank you to my God, now I finally got it right
    And I'll fight with all of my heart, and all a' my soul, and all a' my might
    What's this feeling?
    My love will rip a hole in the ceiling
    Givin' myself to you from the essence of my being
    Sing to my god all these songs of love and healing
    Want Moshiach now so it's time we start revealing
    What's this feeling?
    My love will rip a hole in the ceiling
    Givin' myself to you from the essence of my being
    Sing to my God all these songs of love and healing
    Want Moshiach now
    Strip away the layers and reveal your soul
    Got to give yourself up and then you become whole
    You're a slave to yourself and you don't even know
    You want to live the fast life but your brain moves slow
    If you're trying to stay high then you're bound to stay low
    You want God but you can't deflate your ego
    If you're already there then there's nowhere to go
    If you're cup's already full then its bound to overflow
    If you're drowning in the water's and you can't stay afloat
    Ask Hashem for mercy and he'll throw you a rope
    You're looking for help from God you say he couldn't be found
    Looking up to the sky and searchin' beneath the ground
    Like a King without his Crown
    Yes, you keep fallin' down
    You really want to live but can't get rid of your frown
    Tried to reach unto the heights and wound bound down on the ground
    Given up your pride and the you heard a sound
    Out of night comes day and out of day comes light
    Nullified to the One like sunlight in a ray,
    Makin' room for his love and a fire gone blaze
    Makin' room for his love and a fire gone blaze
    What's this feeling?
    My love will rip a hole in the ceiling
    Givin' myself to you from the essence of my being
    Sing to my God all these songs of love and healing
    Want Moshiach now so it's time we start revealing
    What's this feeling?
    My love will rip a hole in the ceiling
    Givin' myself to you from the essence of my being
    Sing to my God all these songs of love and healing
    Want Moshiach now
    And see, I lift up my eyes where my help come from
    And I seen it circling around from the mountain
    Thunder!
    You feel it in your chest
    You keep my mind at ease and my soul at rest
    You're not vexed
    When I look to the sky where my help come from
    And I've seen it circling around from the mountain
    Thunder!
    You feel it in your chest
    Welcome :)

    He opened for 311 at Riverbend and as soon as he started the wind kicked up like he conjured it. It's an amazing memory that I can never forget. This song was the one I believe.

    My dad randomly bought the Live from Stubbs CD from Borders Books back in the 2000s. He is Peruvian, but he always loved listening to music from other cultures and was intrigued to hear Jewish Reggae. As we listened in the car, I was immediately hooked. Such a pleasure to randomly come across this video in 2024. Love the guitar solo. Brings back great memories.

    This song reminds me that deep down inside me somewhere is pure love. Though we can never comprehend divinity with our human minds, we all have a hope inside, something that says disregard all the stress, never mind all the anger we feel towards people who piss us off, somewhere inside each of us is that love for something that we cant prove exists. Its the divinity within us, our very nature of unconditional love.

    letra en español:
    Eres todo lo que tengo y
    todo lo que necesito
    rezo cada dia para conocer tu paz
    quiero estar cerca de ti, si estoy hambriento de ti
    eres como el agua para mi alma cuando esta sedienta
    sin ti yo no existiria ,eres el aire que yo respiro
    digo a veces el mundo esta en tinieblas y apenas ni puedo ver
    con esos demonios gritando alrededor para llevarme a la negatividad
    pero yo creo , si yo creo , y dije que yo creo
    me pondre de pie, no me pondre de rodillas
    lucharé con todas mis fuerzas y haré que esos demonios desaparezcan
    que los rayos de Hashem enciendan el fuego
    yo creo que los rayos de Hashem encenderan el fuego , yo creo
    fuera de la oscuridad viene la luz
    desde crepusculos hasta las alturas
    de la corona a las alturas quema a todos en la penumbra
    le doy gracias a mi Dios, ahora finalmente tengo razón
    y lucharé con todo mi corazón , con toda mi alma y con todas mis fuerzas
    ¿que es este sentimiento?
    mi amor hará un agujero en el techo
    entregando todo de mi hacia la esencia de mi ser
    y le canto a mi dios estas canciones de amor y sanación
    quiero a Moshiach ahora, es tiempo para empezar a revelarse
    Quitate la capa y revela tu alma
    tienes que entregarte y despues quedará completo
    eres un esclavo de ti mismo y no te has dado cuenta
    quieres vivir la vida rápido , pero tu cerebro es lento
    si intentas elevarte estas condenado a quedarte abajo
    quieres a Dios pero no puedes desinflar tu ego
    si ya estas ahi , ya no hay donde ir
    si la copa esta llena esta condenada a derramarse
    si estas ahogado en el agua y no puedes mantenerte en flote
    pidele a Dios piedad y el te tirará una cuerda
    estas buscando ayuda de Dios y dices que no lo encontraste
    buscando en lo alto del cielo y debajo del cielo
    Como un Rey sin su corona, si sigues cayendo
    puedes vivir en realidad pero no pudes deshacerte de tu ceño
    Intentas alcanzar las alturas y teminas tirado en el suelo
    renuncias a tu orgullo y escuchas un sonido
    de la noche llega el dia y del dia la luz
    anulando al Único que es como la luz del sol en el rayo
    haciendo espacio para el amor y el resplandor del fuego
    haciendo espacio para el amor y el resplandor del fuego

    I love the mocking way he says, "your cups already full and its bound to overflow." His vocal modulations are so crazy on this song. He has about 20 different voices and tones in this song and they all seem perfect for that part of the song, for what he's saying.

    I remember being a child hearing this song when it first released, I’m now 31 and I still get the same feelings listening to it now. Such a beautiful song.

    I remember watching this exact video on MTV back in 2006 and my mind being blown into a million pieces. I had never seen anything like this before. Needless to say, I bought the "Live At Stubb's" album at Best Buy a few days later. Ah, the mid-2000s. I miss those days. Simpler times.

      I was so blown away the first time I heard this song, and I was blown away even more when I found out that not only was he white, but a Hasidim! Live at Stubbs is on my top 8 all time favorite albums that I can listen to beginning to end on repeat.
      This show and Depeche Mode at the Rose Bowl in ‘89 are the two I’d go back to see if time travel were possible.

    Yep, I am an atheist and for me it is not a question of whether or not I believe in God, but rather of having faith in his principles. Although I prefer the studio version which conveys the peace we need, this live version gives us the excitement we need when things get heavy.

    aspire to do something like this.
