Yusuf / Cat Stevens - Where Do The Children Play?

It needs Ruth Gordon's Maude in the video!

Awe... So sad! It's a sad song of course. But your first version sounded much more optimistic. I love that you revisited this song. You can hear the years events that have passed since, although it's the same voice. The context is sadder now. Sadly. Beautiful video!

GOODMORNING STANDING FOR OUR CHILDREN AND THERE PLAYGROUNDS.

This has nothing to do with the original concept, but you get an A anyway!

My Father brought the LP home.I was a child and this song has stayed with me for years. I have since travelled to many countries, now am not materialistic and desire a simple life.

Wow. Something positive, thank you Cat.

One of my favourite singer of all time

Absolutely beautiful song ❤

Animation is awesome ❤ and song too

Well I think it's fine, building jumbo planes.
Or taking a ride on a cosmic train.
Switch on summer from a slot machine.
Yes, get what you want to if you want, 'cause you can get anything.

I know we've come a long way,
We're changing day to day,
But tell me, where do the children play?

Well you roll on roads over fresh green grass.
For your lorry loads pumping petrol gas.
And you make them long, and you make them tough.
But they just go on and on, and it seems that you can't get off.

Oh, I know we've come a long way,
We're changing day to day,
But tell me, where do the children play?

Well you've cracked the sky, scrapers fill the air.
But will you keep on building higher
'til there's no more room up there?
Will you make us laugh, will you make us cry?
Will you tell us when to live, will you tell us when to die?

I know we've come a long way,
We're changing day to day,
But tell me, where do the children play?

In the rye, I guess.

Fabulous,TY!!❤❤❤
