warren is from my town, asheville, north carolina. he does so much for this area. he works with habitat for humanity building houses for low income people. every year at christmas he has the warren haynes christmas jam. the concert is phenomenal. it's gotten to where big names ask HIM if they can play. he also has local bands. it almost always starts at 7pm and they'll play 'til 4am. every year it's quite a show. we're all proud of him. I've been to 5 of the concerts, my brothers 7. what's cool is he'll get on stage and people who went to school with him will holler up and he'll get the biggest smile on his face, he's truly a great guy. we all love warren here.
with the influx of so many outsiders, yankees, tunnel road and patton avenue are now horror stories, the damn traffic will have you crazy. I live in madison county now and prefer it over asheville. asheille's only 50 minutes from my door so it's cool with me. the neighborhood off tunnel road is kenilworth.
cruiser Music has no boundries. Music is for the heart and mind . We love this song even though we live in the north. It is nice for somebody to sing from the heart. I am glad that he has done so much for your community. But this song makes us remember to shine. This song is great !!
My God.......I am 64 years old and I have heard a lot of great music over the years. But, there will never be another like Warren Haynes and that guitar !!!!!! His music is absolutely gut wrenching. He touches the depths of my very soul. Always has. Always will. He and his guitar are one. Seriously, he definitely belongs in the R&R Hall Of Fame if anyone EVER has. I love his music, spirit, and soul. Rock on WARREN. Keep pullin' MULE.
I have a tat of it over my heart that says SOULSHINE. This saved my life 10 years ago when I lost my mom. She died in my arms of cancer. I now am battling cancer and heart failure, still listening. God bless Warren and his family.
I hope youre still alive to read this... I dont know you but im with you here and after... my tears tonight are with you... See you in the next life friend
Whether with the Allman Brothers, Gov't Mule or just by himself with an acoustic guitar, Warren's talent always comes shinning through. Such a wonderful song!
In all my years of listening to and playing music, I never paid any attention to Warren or Gov't Mule. Now as I am developing my own song list for solo acoustic gigs, I decided to give him a listen and kick myself for not coming to the party sooner. What an extraordinary talent. I'm just glad I did not wait any longer.
I lost my entire family. in a very short time God felt it was time to take them home and doing this he left a huge hole in my heart it's amazing how a song can bring you back
I sadly can relate. I also lost my mother and father and only brother within a six month span all unexpectedly and separate and I was a true lost lonely soul without direction. I knocked the bottom out of bottom. By God I'm alive and well today and my folks live through me. each left me with strengths they had individually and there nothing this world can do to me that I can't navigate
I live in Germany. On Thursday last week my guitar teacher gave me this song to work on. I googled Warren to find this version to listen to but also discovered he was playing Cologne Saturday night on his Ashes TO Dust tour!!!! Went along to the gig and even met Warren afterwards for a chat photo and autographs at his bus. He is a true Gentleman, very humble and an epic performer.
Helene Pelletier no class at all. This is what it’s all about and the people that don’t like it are sad people and feel nothing. Must be lonely for them.
I have known Warren for a long time and it’s been a long time since I have seen him, but I am so proud of him and his life with music 🎶... A HOME GROWN artist that is so freaking amazing to all of us...
+pepelota74 the wrong in the world is the selfless accusation of a man so blinded by the worlds hate that they become the selfless and composed bullshit we have spewed all of our lives, so the wrong in the world is everyone, and everything
Damn, Gives me chills, beautiful acoustic version, could listen on repeat all day. This is one of my favorite songs of all time. Gregg and Warren have got to be the two most soulful artists, definitely the top two on my list.
🔥🔥🔥🔥💯😳😲👌✌ Totally agreed 👍! I love this song and others. Though I believe this is my favorite that I've heard thus far. I'm a guitarist/musician also and love trying to capture this magic sound, as often as possible. Love that easy flowing melodic bluesy blend of rhythmic tone.
Not many songs can distill the beauty and tragedy of life down into a cocktail this sweet and bitter at the same time. Warrens delivery is by far my favorite version.
I love this song! I had a Daddy who said things like this to me and my siblings. You can't let the dark days bring you down. I never will...thanks, Dad! Warren sings the hell outta this one.
My daughter tried to take her life 3 days ago. My heart is completely broken. She is now on her way to get help, and I pray to God she opens her eyes and sees that she's only 26, beautiful, smart, Brite and life is worth living. We both love this song, and before she left I sent this to her through text and said: "take this with you, then give it back when you get home". Daddy loves you so much Jess, let your soul shine and "everything's gonna be alright" . I'll be waiting, love you, Dad.
@@chuckpease7700 yes she made it. She's changed things around. Still dealing with everyday life as we all are, but she's doing much better. Thank you very much for asking 👍
The moment I first saw this video all those years ago, I added this song to my own set list. It captivates audiences time and time again, and I'll keep it in the set forever. Cheers Warren 🍻
I really love when a great guitar player is not afraid to write a song with a simple chord progression, it show the world that you don't have to be really flashy to play a great song. a lot of guitar players believe that they have to speed all over the fret board, in order to play a great song, and that is NOT TRUE. the greatest songs that we all know and love use a simple format, this is something that Neil young know and understands, but he will take first postion chords and dress them up with a lot of hammer on and pull offs, and take something simple and make it sound really cool, he is a genious at doing this.
Love, love, love this! I was driving n a long trip talking to myself and trying to get an understanding of my purpose in life and my sirius radio station just changed on its on. I thought I was going crazy because it was to a station that I never listen to or wasn't programmed into my favorites. A voice just spoke to me and said, "leave it here." This beautiful soul inspiring song played next! I was overcome with emotion as the song was talking to me! I am on my right path and am so grateful to Warren Haynes for this song and also his great service and generosity to the community.
Proud to say Warren Is an old friend of mine from our old hometown of Asheville NC..Im proud of you man.The Brass Tap was a bit smaller than the venues you play In today..Let your soul shine old friend.
This song gives me hope that there will be happy times once more! I love this one, God Bless you! Namaste.💖 Deepest Respect of Faith and Love! 💖 Love, Kathy! 🌞🌻☺😊💛
This has got to be my favorite song in the whole world Warren Haynes you're a badass and I love you brother Today could have turned out really ugly for tomorrow thanks to you Warren instead I'm going to let my soul shine made a homemade capo out of a pen and a razor handle and a hair tie and a rubber band and I'm learning your song right now brother God bless
Am sending you LOVE and PEACE tonight, Connie. Your comment just struck a nerve due to personal reasons. In FL myself, feeling grateful we escaped Dorian with help and protection of the Most High. One of my alltime favorite songs EVER, simply MAGICAL... Keep SHINING your LIGHT 🦋🌟🕯
This Englishman in Thailand has to say that a look at this man tells you nothing, then he plays and sings and you understand, looks dont tell a thing. A new fan.
When you cant find the light That guides you through a cloudy day When the stars aint shinin bright And you fill like youve lost youre way When the candle lights of home Burn so very far away Well you got to let your soul shine Just like my daddy used to say He used to say soul shine Its better than sunshine Its better than moonshine Damn sure better than rain Hey now people dont mind We all get this way sometimes Got to let your soul shine Shine till the break of day I grew up thinkin that I had it made Gonna make it on my own But life can take the strongest man And make him feel so alone Now and then I feel a cold wind Blowin through my achin bones I think back to what my daddy said He said Boy, in the darkness before the dawn Let your soul shine Its better than sunshine Its better than moonshne Damn sure better than rain Yeah now people dont mind We all get this way sometimes Got to let your soul shine Shine till the break of day Sometimes a man can feel this emptiness Like a woman has robbed him of his very soul A woman too, God knows, she can feel like this And when your world seems cold You got to let your spirit take control Let your soul shine Its better than sunshine Its better than moonshne Damn sure better than rain Lord now people dont mind We all get this way sometimes Got to let your soul shine Shine till the break of day Oh, its better than sunshine Its better than moonshne Damn sure better than rain Yeah now people dont mind We all get this way sometimes Got to let your soul shine Shine till the break of day
Warren is truly one of the last of a dying breed of Real Musicians, Real Talent and Real love for what it means to share the beauty of music, he's truly a Gift from God! God Bless, Jeff
I feel my "Soulshine" brighter and further each time I hear this excellent version sung and strummed by this awesome performer that brings me to my knees when I have the pleasure of hearing his beautiful raspy voice! Greatest respect and God Bless!!!❣❣❣
If you ever find yourself asking why God allows both good and bad in this world, perhaps here is your answer. Without the bad there would not be the blues nor music like this. There would not be those moments when your soul is touched by the voice of God speaking to you, such as He does when this song is played. Without the bad, there would be no opportunity for mankind to rise above it -- to reach out and just for a moment, touch the face of eternity.
I’ve been listening to the Allman Brothers Band for just about 30 years. I feel I must have stormed past this song years ago when I was on my hurried teen/twenty something quest to experience the music I decided was going be likely to Aid in my developing manhood. So now that I’m 50 ish I’ve come to understand the importance of my SoulShine and the affect of others SoulShine on me. I really love watching others experiences. SoulShine
This is one of my favorite songs, so much in fact that I named my business, Soulshine Photography located in beautiful Panama City Beach, after this song. Warren is the best :-)
Every night two songs and my little boy is asleep. Little martha and this version of soulshine. Just beautiful songs and perfect words of encouragement. Thank you Warren.
When I was in University in the early 2000's, I listened to a live version of this song on repeat for YEARS. I would walk the streets of Ottawa, young and drunk and high and just drink this song over and over again. This was a time for me just before my father died, a man who taught me what it was like to lose the very first person who meant something to me. So this song reminds me of a time when he was alive and I had nothing to worry about. This version is the closest I have found to that version since I have gone through several computers since then. I know it must exist somewhere, on an MP3 CD or something. But holy shit, I can't even get through it without crying.
Уже не помню, сколько лет назад впервые услышал данную композицию. Но каждый раз, когда включаю её, слеза так и просится наружу. А если вдобавок еще почитать комментарии людей под этим видео - просто плачу как маленькая девчонка! Магия!
Awesome, Warren's got it all. I've been playing all my life. Standing by yourself playing' and singing like this is beyond special. Respect my Blues brother Los Angeles
