Why should we do that? Why, when anyone does anything kind, and selfless or beautiful do we have to automatically give the credit away to some "bigger being that just made us do it."

It's so beautiful...on one hand, he is cynic about how music has become nothing but a hook. On the other hand, you can see how the kids, who don't understand the words, are moved to joy because of the hook. Makes me think how we are really controlled, us humans, by the smallest amount of love, or a pretty tune...we're just hooked, and will always run back to it.

This just made me freaking cry. I had no idea who he was singing for untill he stood up. God give peace to all of those children.

When I became a pastor, I gave up playing in bands, because I was from the sex, drugs and rock and roll era, however, watching the smiles on those kids faces is really making me rethink that choice.....seeing that joy truly touched my heart and reminded me why I loved playing

Oh the tears. I used to work with people with cerebral palsy and had no idea this would get to me so much. Those lucky ducks. Wish I was there singing right to their faces I am so jealous. Especially that fast part after playing the harmonica he has a lot of breath this man haha and talent

I’m so relieved I’m not the only person who sobs at this video. Happy tears😭😭😭😭

I remember listening to this song in the 1990's when it first came out, I thought he said "the heart brings you back, oh Michigan we like.."

That is the difference having the gift absolute pitch makes. His octaves are perfect, he plays harmonica like he sings, and he sings like he plays. His ear is miraculous. Very rare, and even rarer to see someone showcase perfect pitch like John Popper does.

That was Uber fucking cool of him with the kids.

I never realized just how amazing his voice is.

I have probably watched this video 250 times. If so, I have cried all 250 times.

This video absolutely floors me with happy, happy tears every single time I watch it. Some times I would even describe it as happy sobbing! The looks on those kids faces when he sings to them is amazingly beautiful.

Them kids lit up at the harmonica solo and John's fast singing I'm so overjoyed 🍻🍹🍾🍸😍 music brings joy. Blues Traveler music brings epic joyfulness.

It will always be the greatest harmonica solo ever recorded in my opinion (the album version). I'm always amazed by how well he does it live in every live performance I've ever seen.

Man we do not see people play for the most special members of the audience enough. That was so heart warming.

Kingpin- one of the greatest comedies with a great ending featuring this band!

Had this song stuck in My head for a week, glad I found this version. I have 26 years of military/special operations under My belt. Wanna see Me tear up, put this on. So beautiful! 😆🌈

Wow, sorry about your son. Hope you’re doing ok now. Music will do magic for people sometimes, especially when the circumstances aren’t that nice.

Sorry about your Son. While not as bad as yours, this song and music like popper's has helped me a lot especially when the times are tough.

The expressions on those kid's faces: Priceless!

I was at Shoreline that day. I forgot about the disabled Children 😔😢. Being relatively young still in '97 (35) now (59) and was just for a Concert and a good time. But when I watch this on You Tube now , it tears me up everytime. I lost my Sister later in life to a roll over accident that broke her neck and left her paralyzed. After failing health and on top of everything else she was diagnosed with Stage IV Breast Cancer which ended her life at 56. Life is cruel sometimes. However , you John Popper are a good man ! 👍

That pawn stars dude has some amazing pipes!

Whoa...that is fast! Yikes! And he still pulls it off!!??? How does he do that? So dang gifted and driven to excellence. Perhaps the most underrated musician / performer in American music.
