My daughter first heard this song when she was 10 and told me she wanted it played at her funeral. She died in 2020 from cancer and we honored her wished. This song is for the ages. The power of music lives on.

Music is enough for a lifetime but a lifetime is not enough for music

The expressions on each individual face as they’re immersed in their own world, but perfectly in sync with everyone else is honestly astonishing…

Proof that no matter what your political stance, race, religion, sexual preference is, we all are moved when we find harmony. Whether it’s our hearts or music, we all move to the same beat.

If a thousand people play a song, it hits harder, it feels stronger, and sounds beautiful. Nice job all of you! Almost in tears writing this

Richard Ashcroft fulfilled his life purpose. He created a timeless song

Thank god for the English for giving us so much wonderful music, The Verve, Queen, The Who, Rolling Stones, Beatles, The Kinks, Ed Sheeran, Led Zeppelin, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Coldplay, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Oasis , The Cure, Depeche Mode, The Clash,Elton John, The Sex Pistols the list is endless oh and the English language.

Yeah, Richard Ashcroft was kickin on all 12 cylinders when he came up with this tune. Pure Awesomeness

Faith in humanity recovered successfully! 🙂

It still gives me goosebumps. Those lights in the gallery, the sound of the violins, the power of the drums hitting all at once. I'm so glad I was able to be part of this thing. PARIS HERE WE COME!

This one IS clearly the best song version of Rockin1000

1:32 I love that face from the drummer like "gahhhdamn this sounds GOOD!!"

Am I the only one who felt goosebumps when the drums kicked in?

I can't possibly imagine the state of ecstacy the people felt who were involved in this incredible moment of shared joy

One of the greatest songs ever written!

Absolutely jaw dropping. Instruments and singers are absolutely brilliant. What a beautiful song Richard Ashcroft has left behind. Made my day!!

THIS is how we all should be feeling and acting in this world --- in harmony, feeling good and all together as one.

Chills from the moment they started playing, simply incredible❤️

No matter how many times i listen to these guys and no matter the song i get goosebumps, without fail. This is human beings at our best. So many different people so different in every which way is possible coming together as one. When people say don't let hate win, you can see with things like this it ain't winning, it will never win, it never won. This is love right here, this is passion, fatih, hope, this is life. Next time someone says they hate humans, or we all suck, or were horrible creatures who just destroy things, show them this.

One One word. Epic. Two more words. Thank you.

I absolutely love how some of the musicians have their eyes closed and are completely in their own world. This is one of the songs that really takes you away that way.

This is not music it's what we called an Anthem.. Never gets old..

This was the first song that I played for my son just after giving birth to him. He is 16 months old now and it's the only song he listens to with a gleaming smile on his face!

0:19 Don't know what's wrong with me, have tears streaming down my face, this is beautiful, the energy in the place must be truly breathtaking ❤🙏🏽

The Girls smile at 1:31 of this video is precious, she's haveing the time of her life 😊😎 just a beautiful smile ..thank you, whoever you are you made my evening 🌷

This is the best thing I can ask for on a Monday morning at office 😍

Love it! The fuzzy brown hair girl on the drums is ALWAYS my favorite!!!!

I'm almost 58 and I've dealt with a lot of illness myself. This is a great song and that statement is so poignant God bless you❤

Who else miss the moment like this? When we were part of a crowd, shouting and sing in football stadium, corona plis go!

And I'm crying! There's something so beautiful about all these people coming together, united by their love for music! Awesome. Just awesome.

Not to slight the singers and others, but when the drum corp kicks in it just gives me chills every time I listen!

2024 and still loving this song. I'm 56 years young🎉🎉🎉

It's official. may 23rd 2019 was the day that the Rolling Stones gave the credits back to Richard Ashcroft from The Verve.

This is huge man. You know you've created a masterpiece when 1000 people cover it at once.

Thank you Richard for the timeless melody... goosebumps when all the drums bunyik!..

Excellente vidéo, bon son, belles images, un bon et beau moment partagé.........

This is art. Pure, beautiful and wonderful art

Oasis simply cant be ignored by not having one of these.. Huge choruses and all. Dont look back in anger, wonderwall,champagne supernova u name it

That closing drum sequence though💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

1:31 THAT'S HAPPINESS

A fair tribute to Richard Ashcroft and The Verve, even more with the return and recognition as the original the original author of this iconic song. Justice takes time but arrives!

"MUSIC IS HEALING"

Liked even before it begun❤

One of my favorites. 🎶 It is absolutely bitter sweet.❤️💔❤️

More like Rocking 2000's. No song has been such an iconic soundtrack to the turn of the millennium.

It’s kind of weird to choose such a heartbreaking song about loneliness and struggle and have it played by so many people in a stadium. It becomes monumental and transformative. What an amazing, life affirming spectacle!

I've always said that the strings manifest a sense that God exists...it's phenomenal.

Every time I watch this I get goosebumps!

Crying my eyes out, this is just so damn beautiful.

This reduced me to tears. Look at all the stunned faces in the video. Their reactions of amazement and disbelief and unity are priceless.

Puts me in a world of peace ,🫶

Total goosebumps my whole body. How amazing we are when we unite! Wow❤

One of the most emotional moments of my life! That crowd was...wow! Can't wait to play it loud in Frankfurt this year!! 🔥🖤

To all the people in Italy, please take care of one another during this time of need. The world is praying for you.... We love you and we are with you.

That’s the most astounding live concert piece I’ve ever seen. It gives me hope in humanity !!

Took over 25 years to find this unbelievable song!! I heard back in 1997 and was floored by it. Never found out who they were until YESTERDAY!!!! OMG!!! I'm so thrilled!! Going thru breast cancer and this song brings me comfort. Outstanding performance!!

Lyrics: 'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, that's life Tryna make ends meet, you're a slave to money then you die I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down You know the one that takes you to the places where all the veins meet, yeah No change, I can change I can change, I can change But I'm here in my mold I am here in my mold But I'm a million different people From one day to the next I can't change my mold No, no, no, no, no (Have you ever been down?) Well, I've never prayed but tonight I'm on my knees, yeah I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now But the airwaves are clean and there's nobody singin' to me now No change, I can change I can change, I can change But I'm here in my mold I am here in my mold And I'm a million different people From one day to the next I can't change my mold No, no, no, no, no (Have you ever been down?) I can't change, oh, no I can't change, oh 'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, that's life Tryna make ends meet, tryna find somebody then you die I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down You know the one that takes you to the places where all the veins meet, yeah You know I can change, I can change I can change, I can change But I'm here in my mold I am here in my mold And I'm a million different people From one day to the next I can't change my mold No, no, no, no, no I can't change my mold No, no, no, no, no, I can't change my mold, no, no, no, no It's just sex and violence, melody and silence It's just sex and violence, melody and silence I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down Been down Ever been down Ever been down Ever been down Ever been down Have you ever been down? Have you ever been down? Have you ever been down?

Amazing: This must have been such a powerful experience for everyone present...

This song , the lyrics has save me from a place of darkness- thank you for this song.

If we could live in this place we would be happy!

I don't know how many times I've watched this since I got out the hospital in last January, but Damn! This has given me a new definition of joy, beauty and just plain humanity at its best.

It’s all real when the second violin starts....I so love this

Only one word to describe this......WOW !

Very awesome The girl sticking her tounge out was perfect!! You go girl!!

A contender for the greatest song in pop music history. Beautifully performed.

You godamn nailed it. What an outstanding performance of a legendary song.

I'm awestruck! I never even liked this song before. I'll never forget this.

I've never seen anything so special before. ❤

Это не музыка, это космос👍👍👍👍

This is inspiring. What a magnificent interpretation of a classic. Thank you Richard Ashcroft and thank you Great Britain for providing the world with such great popular music over the decades.

Goes to prove that the human race can still do wonderful things. Absolutely love this.

I often think to myself that the one thing i will miss most when i am gone from this world is the music and this song is one of those that make me feel, if when we are gone and we cannot enjoy the music, then death is surely miserable😢😢😢 Its an unbelievably beautiful song❤❤

The nostalgia that this song is giving me is unexplainable. And to see and hear so many people singing and playing their hearts out for it. Truly amazing.

The power and magic of music is all there.

When Rock is mixed with classical music chords, the result is impressive.... Wonderful song, the contrast of the violins and the protest song...

Goosebumps assured. My eyes are wet. Can't stop listening to this masterpiece. I'll definitely play this song on my housewarming! 🙌🏻
