Ai Du Lyrics in English:
Trust and faith in your fellow man has no equal.
If you have experienced trust you will know its strength.
You must know yourself before you know others.

I found this 12 years ago and it's still on my playlist
Superb taste is music you possess......
Deep deep desert blues from Niafunke Mali.This man is the blues,as was his farther,Ali Farka.Can and do listen to Ali and son playing this fantastic Mali music.

mike spencer Listen to his dad! The great Ali Farka Toure. This and Amandrei are mesmerizing.
it was after his dad i found
him.What makes this
song sooo good is it's son in fathers memory
@@ozyw I have that album. I tracked it down and an NZ record shop imported if from Britain for me. I also heard it on the movie unfaithful.
@@ozyw جشجشض
I love Mali musicians, the best in Africa. Love from Eastern Ethiopia
It is a very friendly, but earnest music
Quelle maîtrise cher vieux Touré
I'm not the type of person that bothers commenting on UA-cam but this song is one of the few things that is worth the time.
I remember hearing this song for the first time in the movie "Unfaithful" and it stuck with me. It was so pervasive that I had to find it.
I'm not an old guy at 31 but it really has to be said that they simply don't make music like this anymore. There is such soul and depth to this in the chords that little else need be added.
I'm well aware that his father wrote the song but I feel blessed to be born at a time that I'm able to hear something as hypnotizing as "Ai Du". Truly amazing music. I think the only thing that could top hearing this song, is hearing it live and this is probably the closest I'll ever get to that.
+RMutt1 Good to hear that there are still people that has some kind of sensitity
I also heard it for the first time in the movie and did not stop until I found it. This is truly amazing music.
RMutt1 well said this is a beautiful song I too fell in love with it from the same movie Unfaithful
Same here. Been listening to it for about 5 years now
same here!!! Been listening to it ever since and prob won't stop till this track is removed. Hope that never happens.
Perfect.
Love from Serbia
I could listen to this all damn dayy!
Eric Clapton should invite him to perform at Crossroads festival. He will surely blow nearly all away with the exception of very few.
+Humayun Ahmed agreed!!!!
Thank you very much brother
He was on the Dec 2015 rollingstone mag. I wanna see him in the blues community more. I know his style is different but its still very much as the heart of the blues.
Wow! 1 million views just for a live performance. Proud to be Malian
+Aethiop Al-Nasara Mali music is the best. Even I know that and I'm from Australia. ;)
Oh Thank you! Good to hear that.
Aethiop Al-Nasara me too! Thanks to AncestryDNA I can claim it! ❤️
Oh Fantastic! Many innocent children and women from Mali were stolen by lawless, godless and heartless bandits, sold to the Nazara(christians/whites) as slaves.
My native language - English - simply does not contain the adjectives to describe this in the way I feel it deserves. The best I can muster is two words - stunningly spectacular. This is the creme de la creme
Like father like son
The apple does not fall far from the tree
Good job playing your dad's song
Keep it up
He played this song right to my face just a foot away from me, I cried the whole time. it was one of the most wonderful things to ever happen to me. Yes it is a sexy song just as sexy as his father delivered it
God bless exelent musicians
He is my #1 musician
I am hooked to all his music almost twenty two years now
I play the cds ln my small ethiopian restaurant in grand rapids Mi
All my hippy customers go crazy listening to his songs
God bless Ali F and his admirers
Love
Its like I feel my soul quiver as I listen
Been looking for this since I saw the movie "Unfaithful" decades ago...Sww rerun last night and tracked this amazing musician. Smokin'
This is too much
it transports you through time and space
From light purple to brown of the atire..the lighting the instruments, the lyrics the vibrationnn.... sublimee....ReSt iN PeAcE KiNg Ali FaRkA ToUrè....
theson playing one of his father song with his father guitar....sensible to it
Merci de m'avoir fait voyager quelques minutes.
BRAVO!
I first heard this song when I was 17 and lost it for a long time because I couldn't remember the title. I found it again 14 years later and I am sooo happy I did.
J'ai le souffle coupé quand j'écoute ses chansons. Je suis très fier que mon pays ait la chance de regorger au tant de jeunes talents afin de prendre la relève des Salif Keita, Aly Farka Toure, Oumou Sangare, Amadou et Mariam........
Drissa Diarra
Quant à moi je suis fier d'être africain avant d'être algérien et la musique des pays frères et frontaliers me projete verticalement.
salif keita avec Papa et ananamine entre autres.
pour ai du je préfère me taire !!!
He definitely did this song justice.
Amazing young master.
Stunning legend
Sultry.....soulful.......luv it!
one of the best artists in Africa
He's the man!
Amazing!!
I just love the way he gets down on the guitar
Susie Norton yup this is african style mixed with blues music and you see the result :D amazing
Very normal..he's the son of the legend Ali farka touré
Like father like son! Alifarka is a G!!!!! so also you!
All time favorite. Love from Ethiopia
Saw this guy today at the Devizes Carnival and I thought he and his band were sensational. They call him the Hendrix of the Sahara - he deserves the compliment. Watching him live you get a stonking blues/rock/afro/celt sound with unbelievably, effortless guitar playing. I've seen most of the top guitar players in my time and I rate 'Vieux' up there with the best.
In love with his style. The man is very proficient at playing his guitar.
One of the best talents on planet earth.
tel fils tel pere ali toure nous manque beaucoup
I have been watching unfaithful over and over just so I could hear little bits of this song.
I'm sooooo glad I finally found the whole thing. It is awesome.
I just watched "unfaithful" for the first time today and I can't get over this song.
That guitar is really special.
Music from heaven ! ❤❤❤❤❤
Mali have so much to offer, great music , long history , very friendly people and lets not forget the dogon people. I have been there many time and hope that in the future the west will stop to try to play war and politics for the people of Mali.
I'm more attached to his father's original version, but this is also excellent. The guitar tuning/playing sounds pretty much like Ali's tuning/playing on the solo version of 'Diaraby'. Great to see Vieux is continuing the legacy in his own
way and right. Thanks to the uploader!
Can you send the link for his Father's version? Please and thanks 😊
Damn this is heavy! I have no idea what he's singing but the song still speaks to me.
The Art of Pure Music. Hypnotic, mesmerising, spellbinding, spiritual. Who needs Drugs when you can get high high high listening to this.
No need to overstand the lyrics to feel the music. Music is UNIVERSAL. Peace from France.
Super
So so soooooo lovely!👌🏽❤🇪🇹🇪🇹❤🥰😘
i feel in love with this song after watching unfaithful
Apple does not fall too far away from the tree here. RIP Ali Farka.
Hey...I read somewhere that Vieux is playing Ali's guitar! What a legacy....
