Atma Man 12 months agocompletely useless, awful sounds.

Why not just sing Hare Krishna?

I am not sure that Srila Prabhupada would have approved of such a presentation.

  But Prabhupada liked George Harrison and his attempts to spread Krishna consciousness and the Hare Krishna mantra in his music.
  
  Although that is something different from full time devotees doing it.
- Atma Man 11 months ago@KrishnaTubeThere is no need to imitate George Harrison. Useless imitations will not help to spread the message. If there is talent and fame, they can be used in the service of Krishna, which is what Srila Prabhupada did. He used George Harrison's fame.
  
  It is better for these guys to simply do what the acharya asked, without considering themselves smarter than him.

- Krishna Tube 1 year agoYes. There's always one "Hare Krishna Band" somewhere who doesn't realize the idea is to play Hare Krishna music...

- Krishna Tube 1 year agoYes. We only have a few minutes. I am sure they go on to chant Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare. Like George Harrison did in his songs. Rock songs, "My Sweet Lord, Hare Krishna...." It is still one of the most popular songs on the planet. And very good idea, to get the rock stars chanting Hare Krishna, and to get the whole world chanting Hare Krishna and hearing Hare Krishna.....
