I agree whole-heartedly. I posted the below on the "Hurt" video on this channel. More people should see the world through other's eyes.. This is my 4th video I've watched, and just subscribed to the channel. Watching these videos has struck me in a profound way. I'm a 60 year old farmer in North Texas, and I tell everyone I know about this channel, even if they won't watch it. Much like the Tribal people here, in rural Texas, you can be isolated from the rest of the world in many ways, but most importantly in a cultural sense. I've that individual humans throughout the world where much like me, our feelings about war, hate, love, joy, are much the same, but we don't get that from news stories, movies, etc. What we get is what our leaders and the media want us to see, to portray other countries people in either a negative light, or a positive one, depending on the political relationships between us. After watching several of the videos, I feel a kinship with these people, because I see them for who they are, what they find confusing, funny or beautiful, and I see in them people around me that would be saying the same things, just in a different language. Years ago, when the Internet first came into being, I had high hopes that it would break down these artificial walls separating us from the rest of humanity, but in the years since, I've grown to think it just made things worse, that we still couldn't communicate with others, we just see what our "leaders" want us to see, and I despaired of it. This is what the internet was meant to be, in its purest form. I thank you for creating this content, keep up the good work, and I hope there is a way that these people can know the affect getting to know them, their true selves, has on others. Again, thank you!

I like that the elder in the white lace cap began to sing along. He didn't even know what the words meant, but the vocals and the tones managed to touch, as I saw someone else say, 'He has music in his soul.' The man with the colorful beard and the smaller beard, I could tell he was starting to choke up. And one of the ladies actually had tears. I find it amazing that all of them seem to catch the feeling of sadness, and they didn't even understand a word.

It's amazing that, even without the translation, they could feel the emotion behind the song. I love Pentatonix and this is one of my favorite covers. I'm glad you shared the group with everyone.

Amanda Downing. I think that you were really on to something here: if we took the time to really look into most peoples’ faces for more than just a moment, we would see their sweetness and beauty. We would connect with them differently. There are people out there that are doing research on this. Researchers find that if they ask people to sit and face each other in close proximity, and say nothing while they look at each other’s faces for two minutes, that they connect with each other on an emotional level, and some will have tears on their cheeks. Considering the fact that you figured this out without a researcher, you might be interested in looking at their findings. There could even be more to this.

I would argue that instead, it is diversity of perspective that allows such an incredible variety of music to exist. That said, I agree... to craft music is to create something of beauty, be that the thunder and violence of rock, or the soothing calm of a hymn. The world needs more music.

@itsme Emma Cohen actually was the first to record it in 1984 on his album "Various Positions", but from what I remember it was on an independent label and sold only in Canada. John Cale recorded it in 1991 on his album "I'm Your Fan", so I guess he would be the first after Cohen. The guy who really brought this song into the limelight was Jeff Buckley IMO.

Every time I watch these beautiful people my heart swells with joy and I feel connected to all of humanity. Thank you for sharing their adventures.

Just beautiful man! It makes me think about how, despite all of our perceived differences, we all share the same heart, we all feel, and we re all ultimately one people. Love of music is that innate thread that seems to run through us all, and so deep within our collective psyche. One day we will be united as people, as a planet. We will be one, together, as a multitude ❤

@@lokisfriend I know what the word means. My point is, the Hallelujahs in this song are not praising any gods. This song isn’t praising God. This song is about romantic love, lust, sex, disappointment, a breakup, ultimately hope for romantic love, and also questioning the existence of a god. Pentatonix omitted the raciest verse with a Hallelujah that is specifically in regards to experiencing an orgasm.

@lokisfriend

@@RachelJane101 The song is about the betrayal of Samson by Delilah through the use of her feminine wiles and charms. The words are many times altered somewhat but if you think this is all about an orgasm then I think you might need to expand your reportiore a bit. I might also add that there is to be considered the betrayal of God by Samson, which is ultimately a deeper, more profound sadness than that of a man and a woman. Samson, even after betraying God still prevailed over his enemies after having his hair cut and his eyes put out and so the praise goes only to God for making that happen. Hallelujah.

This was so uplifting to see people coming together over music. I had tears!! Their perception of the song was spot on...

I love how they likened the various parts to music they know, also how they noticed Kevin and his beatboxing, & how they paid close attention when Mitch came on, his voice and the meaning of his part. They were right too, without the translation, they saw that part as sad, when the lyrics said "cold and broken Hallelujah". I enjoyed this reaction.

I am so thrilled to see this and hopefully Pentatonix will see this as well. I love their "Mitch faces". Each one had a very different but strong reaction to his voice. This one of my favorite reactions to this video I have ever seen!! Thank you so much for doing this and the way that you did it not translating the song for them

It is not necessary to understand the lyrics, they have felt it as they have interpreted it. They have valued what they have also recognized as part of their culture and I have loved the genuine expressions of that experience.
