My sweet husband passed away in 2018 and he used to play me your tuns to me lots Thank you for sharing this with me God bless you sweetie

I will always listen to the wind of my soul because of you and the beautiful songs you sing. Congratulations Yusuf on this beautiful tribute by Gibson.🎸🌙⭐❤️

This honor is well deserved! An iconic and magnificent instrument for the most iconic artist of all times!

What a voice. I'm so glad that he's back doing what he does best, spread joy with amazing songs. I remember when he became a Muslim and stopped playing music. It made no sense for a religion that is supposed to be all about joy forbidding him from making people happy. You can also tell that he is as happy to perform as we are to see/hear him perform.

It's because our music is in the next life my friend, same as alcohol and most of all other desires, so it's a choice really, to enjoy it in this life or the next

Where did you learn that Islam was about joy? History shows wherever Islam had been, it's been with bloodshed and forced obedience to its rules.

I've been listening to your wonderful music now for over 53 years! I never tire of it and your music balances and evens out my feelings and internal soul. The music helps me with long physical work and my running so I feel like I am gliding on my feet. Thank you for your incredible talent, music and life's work.

I can think of no voice more close to perfect in this world. Aside from everything else. Yusuf makes you feel alive, and blessed by God to be here. Wonderful. Thank you

Such a beautiful tribute by Gibson to a legendary artist and an iconic guitar. Congrats, Yusuf 🎸❤️

Our guitars become such an extension of ourselves. When I play, I feel like the guitar is part of my arms. And each guitar has a different song locked away inside it. I am so glad that Gibson has honored you with this Custom Shop model. I only wished I could afford to buy one.

Would you recommend it above all other acoustics? When I was a kid, they advertised Ovation for Cat Stevens.

That voice, that guitar! What more can be said..?!

Beautiful! If you read the cereal box to me, I will listen & love it- and, I don't even eat cereal😅💜

May I say that Cat is utterly unique. As a 16 year old I could feel the presence of a large soul in the music and lyrics... His 1:48 voice is like no other.

I posted one of your songs on Facebook and my granddaughter listened to it and now she loves your music as much as I do! God bless you and thank you for all the wonderful music.

Dear Steve, the last time you came to Chile, we met and, on my Ovation guitar, you wrote to me: "Archi, with peace, keep the faith."You autographed and dated it. (02/28/15). This Gibson model includes an interior label hand signed by you and there will only be 50 units in the world! Very few will be lucky. But, by your great kindness, none as much as me. Thanks again dear Steve.

Years ago my husband asked me what was my favorite Cat Stevens’ song. Without thinking, I said The Wind. Later, I reflected on my answer, and I wasn’t sure why I first thought of this song. I’m still not sure, but it seems to speak of important things to me. Thank you, Yusuf.

Yusuf, you've been the most sincere song writer I've ever heard. Father & Son has long been my favorite song along with Where Do the Children Play and Morning Has Broker. It seems that your songs are universal and will live on forever. I started writing heartfelt songs because of you and every time I finish one I savor the beauty and magic of music. I am a lonely singer, not singing in a band but like you I mean every word I sing even if no one but me hears it. You're a beautiful person and like you I've also suffered loss when my youngest son passed just 8 months ago. So of course I wrote a song about it and cried through every line. Please keep inspiring others. Please keep writing. Music is love. Your fan and distant friend Mike.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your son. 😔 But keep writing beautiful music and singing it. Somehow I think he hears you.

I was introduced to Cat Stevens in the 70’s. I was a total mess but found his music to be comforting. ❤

I ordered a Yamaha acoustic guitar and a professional tambourine I've wanted for many years, and the tambourine arrived yesterday. I played it all day and night to many songs, and was thinking about how music is so beautiful and the most important thing there is in reality- It is and always has been played everywhere by every culture, and fills everything- the air, the heart, touching the moods of others softening our hearts to each other, to spirit, and to create this intangible expansively beautiful experience which has the power to touch everything and everyone within its sound- all one needs is an instrument, and a singer his/her voice.

❤️ Beautiful Guitar ‼️ Many will say it sounds as beautiful as it looks. Agree all things can be said through music. Have a sense some new tunes are on the way. Just say it in the music. 🎼🌿

Wish you stay writing more great songs! I am your fans living in Jakarta, Indonesia - a beginner songwriter 🎵

You are the best performer of all. God bless you

Great guitar. I learned to play guitar (a cheap one) with my dad 42 years ago. I was 8. My dad died I was 10. Now I show some to my 20 months old grandson. Every time he comes to my house he wants to make some noise in my guitar. I hope one day he learns that and remember his grandma. 🥰

The song Longer Boats was his song that touched me the most as a teenager. Very moving spiritually. Actually, in quite simple lyrics, it captures a profound longing for meaning. A search for intimate understandings. In fact, the entire album of Tea For The Tillerman was and remains a pure masterpiece. The apex of Cat Stevens’ musical work.

Loved how you had the record spinning in reverse after you spoke of going back in time🙏😽

My All time favorite song!

This is one of the greatest songs of Cat Stevens.

Thank you.

2 legends....together 4 ever

Happy birthday beloved Yusuf, from a corner in the south of the world, a hug with the soul from Chile 🇨🇱 larga, happy, healthy and Wonderful life! 🎉🎂🎊👐 blessed and peaceful life, Dear Bob💖

WOW! You are knocking it out of the park! excellent! Thank you so much for your beautiful music! Long time listener! 50+ years,LOVE YOUR LOVE!

his voice changes a lot when you listen to a studio version and when you listen to him perform live !!!

One of the most beautiful voices.

Há algo incrível na sua forma de cantar. A sua voz transmite uma emoção verdadeira. Curto muito sua obra. Paz para o Planeta.

This looks gorgeous - A beautiful guitar for a beautiful soul!! 🙂

You’re beautiful your music is beautiful God gift you with a wonderful, beautiful talent. God bless you.🥰❤️🌅🦋💕

Your songs are as beautiful as you are, I like you so much Cat Steves that I have a teenage son who looks a lot like you and that's amazing 🤩! 2022

if i had a ton of money, i would totally get one, legendary. i wish i was as legendary. i can write, i can play guitar, but i could never do it as well

Cat Stevens était le chanteur préféré de mon frère aujourd'hui décédé. Alors quand j'écoute cette chanson ça me rappelle ce frère très cher. Allah yrahmou

J'aime énormément : cette voix qui allie force, rudesse presque, et infinie douceur. C'est court, mais de toute beauté.

I’ve always wondered… does even Cat Stevens himself look back on his young life and wonder how in the world he came up with all those beautiful songs out of thin air? Why does such creativity ever stop? Do you think you could still be so creative? I’ve always wondered why innate creativity generally shows up when people are relatively young, and seems to disappear as they get older. Why is that?

I was actually reading about that very subject a while ago. Paul Simon’s memoir talks about there being two kinds of artists. The first is as you mentioned. Creativity can come in a sort of tide, then goes away. But another kind of artist continues to create all through their lives. Makes sense. Paul Simon has never stopped exploring and making music.

@@Caperhere: Yes, but generally, they never seem to come close to doing what they did in their younger lives…not only quantity, but quality as well. Paul Simon and Paul McCartney are perfect examples. And Cat, of course. I’ve just never really understood why it happens. It’s like the majority of creativity that a person is capable of flows out of them like an open spigot when they’re young, and then slowly, it’s just turned off.

@TakeTheRide

Paul Simon has also married people that are musicians (he's married to Edie Brickell now) and that helps keep it alive where as if your spouse is not a musician, you may tend to eventually go another directions with that person. I think that has much to do with it. some people just develop other interests later in life. I've gone back between music and photography. People just have other interests too. Doesn't mean they're not creative in other ways.

@c.a.t.732

I think creativity is linked to curiosity and imagination. The once freethinking seeker Cat Stevens renounced music when he became a Muslim, and traded poetry for piety, questioning for dogmatic assumed certainty. He abandoned his muse, and when he decided to take up music again decades later and reached out for her, she was long gone.
