There are a lot of hard hitting hilarious responses here. Thank you all.

It appears from this information that he was never a U.S. Citizen.

"Cat Stevens was born Stephen Demetre Georgiou in 1948 to a Greek Cypriot father and a Swedish mother.

The family owned a restaurant on Shaftesbury Avenue, in the west End of London, and Stevens and his older brother and sister waited tables from an early age.

From 2006:

"Homeland Security officials said Yusuf Islam — formerly known as singer Cat Stevens — will be deported Wednesday after being denied entry to the U.S. Stevens had recently been placed on a government "no-fly" list after U.S. authorities received information indicating associations with potential terrorists, a government official said."

So what we are left with is that he is not a U.S. Citizen, and he has a prior deportation. Does it surprise anyone that the Obama Junta is allowing him to perform?

Go away Yusuf.

And the piano part was played by Rick Wakeman.

"Only six dates are scheduled so far—starting Dec. 1 in Toronto and hitting Boston, New York, Chicago, San Francisco, and Los Angeles."

I'll mark this on my calendar to check and see if his concerts go unsold.

BTW - I thought Muslims weren't supposed to indulge in music except for that call to prayer animal squealing they play at all hours of the day.

There’s just no end to it is there?
