The man is nearly WORSHIPFUL!! The pure embodiment of MUSIC!! No matter how much someone can Say they love music (even those who Play an istrument) this man makes the Music come out of HIM instead of some detached apperatus!! If Music were a woman, all others present to her a Valentine's Day Card. Bobby McFerrin... Sings her a Song.

I just saw this wonderful man live, and had the extremely good fortune to be able to shake his hand and get a picture with him. He is one of the nicest people you will ever meet, obviously an extremely spiritual and musical man. It was the most fantastic concert I have ever seen, and if anyone out there ever has the chance to see him, you should immediately jump at it. But you knew that without me telling you, huh? :D

ok...ppl...seriously. I bought this performance on DVD from Amazon. The entire audience participates (when he gets them to sing with him during other spontaneous songs) and applaudes after the song you see here and EVERY other song...they, like the other posters (who know about Bobby McFerrin), wait for him to finish. You shouldn't judge people simply because they don't act like you ....the DVD is titled "Spontaneous Inventions"

@Tomokatocat sorta depends how you define it... Yes, it's a 3-octave jump from the lowest note to the highest note through that run at 3:00. Which means... you could say he actually touched the 4th octave if you think of it in ranges. The top note he sings could be considered the beginning of the fourth octave as well.
