    Cat Stevens was giving us back the songs he’d taken away years ago, validating their worth, and our love for them: http://nyer.cm/6ZZ57rH pic.twitter.com/ng1cJNlvwu

        He's always had great music - especially when he became a Muslim. Why not refer to him by his name Yusuf Islam?

        Had you read the article to its entirety you would've known. He referred to himself as Yusef/Cat Stevens in the concert the author been to.

        Fans should respect him enough to call him by his proper name. And yes, I did read this article to its entirety, thank you very much.

        So what's the problem? He is now referring to himself as Yusuf OR Cat Steven.

        I will always love him ♥️ His voice has become more rich in perfect tone. He grabs my soul like no other. His music soothes my pain.

        Why is Cat Stevens important? "...he may not have had the answers, but he was looking for them, and we were encouraged to join him."

        He must have been very dedicated to his religion to relinquish his fame for a time, I admire him greatly for this & his repitoir of songs

        Steve/Cat/Yusuf is still a firm believer in sharia law. I won't listen to his music until he rejects it & joins civilized society again.
