You can feel his soul, in the song.

I hope Ray is as happy as he was here in heaven. R.I.P.

I'm a big Beatles (and McCartney) fan, but this is how this song was meant to be sung. Simply wonderful

I have had the opportunity twice too see Brother Ray perform.Once in Akron he and his assistant walked right past where i was seated and i said"good show brother ray" and he responded too me with "i appreciate it"!!My 5 minutes of fame!!That was 35 yrs past!!

Once heard a quote about Ray Charles "That's what life's about. Taking time to hit the right notes" - Ray Charles

2020 anyone for his Soulful singing?

I could watch blind people jam all day. Just something about feeling the music without giving a damn about how the movements look is so genuine. Love it.

Wonderful! He's the only other man who could do "Let It Be" as good as the Beatles.

He is one of the few men that can do a Beatles song true justice. He never disrespects a cover of any artist which is why people love when he covers their songs

Please realize that Ray Charles was a master at bringing the best out of a song! That's why it's so intriguing and surprisingly wonderful when a song is preformed the way Ray sees it! I wish he had done one of mine!

He's an American treasure. His music revolutionized his genre . One of the first to bring Gospel into mainstream. Ray Charles stood for his people when the south would not allow black people into stadiums to watch his shows. Sorry Africa, he's ours. You can't claim him. God bless.

ray charles singing "and when the night is cloudy, there is still a light that shines on me" is simply amazing...

I met Ray Charles once and he was very cool man, even had a beer with him at the place I worked where he played a concert.

One of the greatest singers of ALL time! The great Ray Charles. WOW, he injects so much soul into this song with the simple magic of his voice and playing.

Back when my mom passed away when I was 9, my dad gave me a Beatles CD and let it be was a touching song for me.. Ray Charles is my favorite singer, I just found this and I am crying.

His voice gets me, every time.

0:00-3:28 is Beautiful

When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me Speaking words of wisdom, let it be And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me Speaking words of wisdom, let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be Whisper words of wisdom, let it be And when the broken-hearted people living in the world agree There will be an answer, let it be For though they may be parted, there is still a chance that they will see There will be an answer, let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be Yeah, there will be an answer, let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be Whisper words of wisdom, let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be Whisper words of wisdom, let it be And when the night is cloudy there is still a light that shines on me Shine until tomorrow, let it be I wake up to the sound of music, Mother Mary comes to me Speaking words of wisdom, let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be There will be an answer, let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be There will be an answer, let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

I love this whole song. Ray did such an incredible job adapting it to his more soulful style. My favorite moment/ 2:37. That little "ha ha" he gives. I don't know why, it just really hit me for some reason.

Absolutely tremendous! Only Ray could take a Beatles song and totally outshine them with it. Incredible!

Ray Charles was a friend of mine.... He inspried me, and changed my life. His soul and voice will forever be in mine and hearts all over this big blue earth. Rest In Peace, Ray.

That version is astonishing good. Makes me forget the world everytime I listen to it. Thank you Ray.

I love this song and when Ray gets in the groove the sound of his voice made me cry a little

One legend singing another legend's song. Ain't get any better than this.

I get major chills with this song and his voice.

There are people that have music inside of them. And this people can give happiness and tranquility through his musics Go Ray!!! For ever alive!!!

So fitting for Ray to perform this. When Paul wrote this song, he was inspired by Southern Baptist church music. Ray brings a jazz feel, but it still feels like Soul. What a great performer!

If you have ever heard the phrase "that just can not be taught" this here is the very definition of that term. This is as real of a display of raw, real, natural talent that you will ever find in the vast world of music.

Ray Charles, James Brown, Elvis Presley, The Beatles os meus preferidos, nao me canso de ver e ouvir esses Genios

I've been going through a lot recently. I was in a bad place and I was trying to put my mind off things by watching random videos in my recommended. This appeared, and I can't really explain but its made me feel far better about myself.

What an artist, Ray I love your voice and soul. I'm 66 years old, my dad loved to hear you sing.

I don't know why people are saying "Oh, Ray's version is better than the original" or "The Beatles were the best" well you people are wrong... They are just different versions. Ray just recreated it to fit his singing style. So as other versions of this song. So please respect my opinion. Though I still prefer the original version, Ray made his version very good!! :)

He deserves a standing ovation from the beginning of this classic song

I usually don't like covers. None of them. I just don't. But this is one of the best performances ever recorded on earth.

Great Job Brother Ray Charles.I enjoy your music

Wow. Mr. McCartney, would you chime in please? Ray did some magic here.

A very clear, very soulful voice. The Genius, Ray Charles.

I love Ray Charles!

Wow! Rest in Peace Mr. Legendary Ray Charles ❤.

God bless Ray Charles and rest his soul. He was an amazing person, talented and humble. Despite being blind, he was one of the happiest people I'd ever seen perform. Funny how some of us are born "perfect" and still let everyday problems prompt us to declare that our "lives are over" yet people with defects like blindness, autism, downs syndrome, cerebral palsy, and more, are some of the most joyful, and grateful people there are.

His voice would never be forgotten.

when one of the most amazing artists in the world sings one of the most amazing songs in the world... Beautiful.

What a wonderful song, I’ve always listened to this during my darkest days. And the words have cured me better than anything else, and reminded me to find peace in myself when it’s easy to be cynical, pessimistic and self critical. Let it be a message of peace and hope for all of us during these dark and difficult times.

legend is legend

How have I lived this long without knowing this existed? Awesome

What a beautifull wonderfull magicfull version... rip R.C.

Fantastic version of Let it Be by Ray Charles. Rest in peace dear Uncle Ray.

The man was music incarnate. Btw, that solo is sick. It starts with cozy jamming and than that change...good lord.

Let It Be When I find myself in times of trouble Mother Mary comes to me Speaking words of wisdom, let it be And in my hour of darkness She is standing right in front of me Speaking words of wisdom, let it be Let it be, let it be Let it be, let it be Whisper words of wisdom, let it be And when the broken hearted people Living in this world agree, There will be an answer, let it be For though they may be parted there is Still a chance that they will see There will be an answer, let it be Let it be, let it be Let it be, let it be There will be an answer, let it be Let it be, let it be Let it be, let it be Whisper words of wisdom, let it be And when the night is cloudy There's still a light that shines on me Shine until tomorrow, let it be I wake up to the sound of music Mother Mary comes to me Speaking words of wisdom, I want you to let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be There will be an answer, let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Por isso que é e sempre será o maior cantor de todos os tempos!!

The Beatles are my favorite group of all time and this is one of my favorite songs. Great cover by the Great Ray Charles. Paul Mccartney said in an interview that he is honored every time someone covers one of His songs. I can only imagine how honored he was that Ray Charles would cover this song. Great job thank you for sharing this.

This song is a gospel, or, at least, the lyrics sounds like that. Who better than Ray Charles to capture the spirit? The best version of this song I´ve ever heard.

Listening to this song. Kobe and others died today. Let it be, there will be an answer, let it be. RIP our legends Ray and Kobe💖

Hearing Ray Charles sing this song restored my faith in God. No one can sing like this unless they are divinely inspired.

Wao,wao wao! Brother Ray just nailed. I can feel the emotions. Rest in Paradise Charles. 💪 ❤❤

What a wonderful Brother.

he wasnt blind... all of us are

This is the best version of this song period

Deus o abençoe grande Ray Charles. Gênio absoluto da interpretação pura da alma e das emoções humanas. Que estejas no Paraíso ao lado do Pai Maior. ✨🌟🌹❤️‍🔥🙏🏻

Only someone like Ray Charles can do a cover like that beautiful 😊 !

Ray Charles was an an undisputed enigma musically. listen to his message from the people to the people by the people, it is very philosophical if one can digest it really deep deep

ray good old talanted man rest in peace good sir

One of those men that, just made you believe it. He could take a song, make it his own, and express his soul through the song. Very few possess his gift. You know it's Ray Charles as soon as he opens his mouth, but even more so, when the piano starts to play. Extremely gifted, he made so many people's lives just through his music. He could change outlooks of men through his music. Long live Ray Charles! He is definitely one in a billion!

A legend sings a legendary song, so happy they captured this on film!

いろんなカバーを見たけれど、抑揚、表現力、オリジナリティ等、 １つ次元が違うなぁ

Não tenho palavras para expressar a sensação que sinto ao ouvir esta música. Cada vez que ouço gosto ainda mais.

This is not a version of "Let it be" made by Ray Charles, this is Ray Charles's way of rediscovering "Let it be". I have heard this song many times and Ray Charles has given me the feeling this is the first time I hear "Let it be".

There's just something about that voice.. Mr. Charles did everything so smooth, so damn naturally!!

O cara era um gênio 👏👏👏 💟💟 ficou linda na voz dele.

He was different! Great, I hope to be a bit different too,.... Charlie

absolutely brilliant..the best version in my books

I’m here standing all alone in the Australian Tassie Bush all on my own just 12000 km from home and listening and to this unforgettable record

One of the greats

CERTAINLY THE BEST VERSION EVER OF THE BEATLES MASTERPIECE

Sometimes you need to just stand in awe when someone can do something you can't, and do it so expertly. Ray was a genius.

Merveilleux Ray ...

He just gave me country, rock n roll, rythm n blues, and gospel ALL @ once.

God! He is the greatest musical talent ever !

Joder este tio me hace siempre llorar en sus canciones

magic voice and really great meaning song i love.

I think the quality of a singer at should be defined by how well they can take a song and tailor it in order to conjure emotions in the listener. By this definition, to me, Ray is the greatest singer I have ever heard.

Ray. I always appreciate your love to present yourself to the world.

What happen to music now a days it's drugs and sex what happen to music with peace and harmony Way to go ray much love

Mr. Charles way of delivery really fits the way america feels like now

Ray is preaching to the choir and were loving it.

Ray Charles knows what he is talking about

声が心地いい

It kinda feels like the Beatles wrote all their songs for Ray Charles.

he is happy, RIP, he lived during the hardest time in this country, we as black Americans have to always remember

I just realized this was posted 12 years ago on my birthday lmao This is really soulful and beautiful, would’ve been a great bday present if I saw this when it was posted 💯

Great McCartney song!

Mira!! si lo hubiera visto antes... pero es que no tenía las gafas de vista. Ahora lo veo todo claro. Como es normal evito mirar al sol para no quedarme ciego y eso me recuerda que no hay que creer todo lo que ves...

This song is amazing! There are no words to describe this masterpiece ... Ray charles has taken the already awesome song of the beatles, interpreting it in a sensational way ... Really ... there are no words!

Je suis fan , le génie , la voix , le patron , le roi c'est lui. Bravo bravo bravo bravo .

I felt this.

best version of this song i've ever heard…..

He really sing with passion, in this song, you can feel his soul

I was lucky enough to see Ray in concert .... happy for the memory...
