Can't imagine how she could be any farther from the rest of the celebrity culture. Maybe the kindest heart in the history of entertainment.

Natalie Merchant has a beautiful soul, beautiful.

This 73 year old hippie has tears in his eyes.

During quarantine 2020 I was feeling sad today, feeling alone. Played this and was floored by the love in this video. What kindness. Natalie you are an amazing example of being human. God sent you. Thank you

Natalie Merchant is one of the best singer song/writters of our time. The number of views should be in the millions.

This woman is at an evolutionary level that most of are not. She is talented, intelligent and a profoundly empathetic and thoughtful human.

If there was just one more person like Natalie in the world, it would be so much a better place!

I am so moved by this. Cannot stop watching. Michelle does an incredible solo vocal at 2:12. Encore to all involved, Bravo!

Me too!!!

It's amazing to me that when somebody does something kind and wonderful in the world that there are those who just can't appreciate it, but actually take the time and put effort into trying to tear down the good. If you can't see the beauty in this performance and let it stand on it's own, I truly feel sorry you. For those of you who can, I embrace you and wish you continued joy.

NAtalie Merchant is simply the best performer ever, her heart feeling interpretation give nothing but the chills!! cant wait to have a new record of her

THIS IS - Love in action. I hope we all learn from this example.

I love the way Michelle smiled when the audience clapped. Beautiful song and video

What a great version of this song. I loved the sound of the students - great job.

Ms. Merchant....Thank you for this.

How does this not have 20M views...

Such a beautiful soul. I absolutely love Natalie.

Just beautiful! When my daughter had colic as an infant, she was soothed by listening to Natalie's Tigerlily. It's still a favorite in our house!

I'm back just to cry while watching this.

How have I never seen this? Beautiful.

Often I wonder what I’m actually doing and why-then I see these videos and it all comes flooding back to me in tears. It’s a great gift/perspective-the lives we have the privilege to touch each day. Thanks Natalie Merchant for your gifts and reminding all who worked with individuals with disabilities of the gift they give us when we take time to be present in the moment while working alongside them. All 3 videos you did at Perkins School for the Blind are incredible-true treasures. THANK YOU!!!

thank you Natalie and Perkins

This is why natalie is one of the most perfect specimens on earth....

Wow, I'm crying wow

Ms. Merchant, When again? Wonders never cease, no matter where you are or your place in your personal life put your breath on one of those young persons cheek again and lift them as you did in that time and place, on that day and in that place this song and your visit brought vision and clarity to all. Reach out and enlighten this group again, if you can still sing this song put all the hindrances or time allocation aside because that song, you, and your touch on those will come back to you a hundred fold. Make the call. PW

I'm reading a book called "wonder" for school and know I see why there were quotes from this song all over it :3

The person who wrote that book wrote it after she heard this song I'm reading that in school to

I'm the girl singing in the third verse 'sweat drop' I did a terrible job and did no justice to her song T_T

I have some singing on my youtube page but my webcam sucks LOL

The 5 cynical, heartless individuals who don’t get this just have to be nefarious!!

She’s the real Mother Teresa

Yes from one perspective it is a truly noble cause, but from another you have singled them out for this disablity. Not in this case, but some artists do these shows to make them feel better about themselves, and in the eyes of the public too.

Beautiful !
