The Grateful Dead’s “Ripple” Played by Musicians Around the World

So I ask myself why these tears? And play it again.

I think the pre­de­ces­sor you’re look­ing for is “Any Dream Will Do” from the Andrew Lloyd Web­ber musi­cal “Joseph and the Amaz­ing Tech­ni­col­or Dream­coat”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9F0AGnUEj4. Very sim­i­lar melody but with some dis­tinct­ly dif­fer­ent notes.

brings back won­der­ful hap­py and some sad mem­o­ries.

Used to hum this song to my kids now 37&39 to get them to sleep what won­der­ful mem­o­ries. Wake up to find out you are the Eyes Of The World !!

Wow — me too. Found myself weep­ing through the whole song, and then replay­ing it again and again.

Actu­al­ly, you’re think­ing of Box of Rain. Hunter wrote Rip­ple.

Beau­ti­ful ver­sion of an incred­i­ble tune. Makes me miss Jer­ry all over again…

It WAS beau­ti­ful. But I can’t help think­ing why weren’t any women giv­en the chance to sing the lead?

Fan­tas­tic trib­ute! Beau­ti­ful­ly done!

oops, thanks.

we are every­where

Don’t have to be a “Dead Head ” to appre­ci­ate this song !!

what an awe­some trib­ute! let the tears flow!

this is my favorite TGD song. this was an amaz­ing trib­ute to Jer­ry. i was able to save the post and can lis­ten to it any­time i want. every time i lis­ten to this, i close my eyes and it takes me back to 1995 when i saw The Dead in my home town of Chica­go. is there any plans to have this song avail­able on iPod?

Keel­in Gar­cia and Tula are both singing melody which IS the lead.

Love this .…..so beau­ti­ful

It has the feel of a song you’ve heard since ear­ly child­hood, like a lul­la­by. It is part of your pack­age, your real­i­ty. It is indeed, a great song!

Beau­ti­ful — we played this at my hus­band’s memo­r­i­al. Play it every year, as loud as pos­si­ble on the anniver­sary. Best Dead song ever

Awe­some song and great world con­tribute the Dead the Best🌹🦅🌹

Won­der­ful ren­di­tion of a beau­ti­ful song👏🙌❤️ Side note: The David Cros­by edit is actu­al­ly in Albany NY-Hud­son Riv­er in the back­ground.

We hope to get per­mis­sion to use this for our cru­sade to help save the plan­et!

I got diag­nosed with ALS two years ago.i can no longer speak or sing along but my heart is full of so much Love when I hear this song. It is my favorite. I have played it three times. In my mind I am singing àt the top of my lungs with
David Cros­by. Bless­ings to all who con­tributed to this sim­ply amaz­ing ren­di­tion of my favorite song.My heart is hap­py ♥️☮️✌🏻🎧🎵🎶🎻🎸🎼🎻🎵🎶

Im afraid you­ve con­fused Rip­ple with Box of Rain!!- Rip­ple was writ­ten by Robert Hunter&Jerry Gar­cia. Box of Rain was writ­ten by Phil after his father passed. Just thought id let you know…Peace …

The song you men­tioned is actu­al­ly “I’d like to teach the world to sing”. It reminds me of “Coun­try Roads”, and Neil Dia­mond, go fig­ure. I’m sure can all be remind­ed of some­thing sim­i­lar from that era, but this will always be a great song! 😊

as always per­fect tim­ing ty. Bless­ing to all 💜 JG

Robert Hunter wrote the lyrics for “Box of Rain” as a gift to Phil when Phil’s father was dying. Phil wrote the music for the song.

This is such a beau­ti­ful and inspir­ing song and to do it with all these folks all over the world singing and hap­py !!!

That was beau­ti­ful

Jer­ry was born in San Fran­cis­co.
Jer­ry wrote the music for Rip­ple.
He spent most of his life in Nor­Cal.
He died in For­est Knolls, a small town just both of SF.

Same!!!

May all the peo­ple of our plan­et have a very Jer­ry day.

Sor­ry that was “Box of Rain”

That, too, made my day
