I like hundreds of thousands around the globe that agrees that the mighty Sparrow is the one and only King that ever graced the calypso arena. He will never be matched or equaled. And, one does not have to be from Trinidad or Granada to embrace this fact, thank you.
Oh yes! I’m listening in 2024 and with God’s grace I’ll be listening to this for many years to come. This is Happy/Humorous and undoubtedly the best. The Mighty Sparrow what a Legend 🔥🔥🔥
My Mother was born in Trinidad,,and my Dad was a ww2 navy man stationed at the now closed Navy base in Trinidad,,where he married my Mom,,after the war my parents moved to Tampa. Florida,,we had alot of family in Trinidad and all the family would come visit and i remember as a kid them playing all Sparrow music at parties they threw at home, grew up listening to Sparrow,,and still love that music now in 2020,,will never forget those good times , with Sparrow playing on the record player,,,
Gregg I bet you and I would have a lot to talk about! My mother was also born in Trinidad, and she met my father in the mid to late 1950s, he was in the Navy stationed at the old base in Chaguaramas. I grew up listening to this music, my mother loved it, and every party we had when I was a kid had this great music as the soundtrack to it! We also lived in Central Florida (about 100 miles north of the Tampa Bay area) so it's probably safe to say we had a very similar upbringing! I grew up with this music and it sounds even better today, still fresh and brings back the most amazing memories also for me.
Yes, It is 2019, and the Mighty Sparrow will be 84 on July 9th! - and I am lucky enough to be playing trumpet in his band in New York City July 5, 2019 at Summerstage (Springfield Park - Queens), and July 6 at Joe’s Pub at the public Theater in NYC!) www.fearlessdreamer.com

Before Sparrow flies away, he must be internationally acknowledged as one of the world's greatest Calypso artists, in the category of Belafonte and Marley. Greetings from Aruba!
De ma guadeloupe tous les jours de mon adolescence reviens d avoir aimé ecouter danser sur sparrow dance les surprises party ne manquais jamais de socas et calysos merci rien pour eux je veux rempiler mon enfance❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
I was raised in Trinidad now living in Florida for over 50 years. I remember as a child about 6 years old singing Sparrow's Jean and Dina. I would get cafenol for singing his songs. I am now 75 and the music still sounds sweet today. He is the greatest to come out of Trinidad.
Anyone listening in 2020. I could think of no better artist than the one and only Slinger Francisco ORTT CMT OBE, better known as Mighty Sparrow, to cheer me up during the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic. As a child in Uganda 🇺🇬 in the 1979s, we played many songs of the Calypso King of the World to walk away our blues and bring a smile to our faces. My father had studied in the US 🇺🇸 in the late 1950s where he’d fallen in with Caribbean students who introduced him to the greatest Grenadian calypso vocalist, songwriter, and guitarist. As a student in the US 🇺🇸 in the 1990s, it was the Mighty Sparrow that partly kept me company as an undergrad and grad student. And now, so many years later, here I am in Tanzania 🇹🇿 returning to the old tunes of perhaps the best-known and most successful calypsonian. Hats off to the big man! Much love from out here across the oceans.
Well said. One of the greatest calypsonians of all time. But he is from Trinidad. I am from the Caribbean and I grew up listening to his songs Cheers from St. Lucia
I listen Mighty Sparrow music in the 60s and 70s when I was in Guyana I now live in the US and listen to calypso cannot live without it it's in my bones live Caribbean die Caribbean
By the grace of God I was fortunate to grow up (born late 60's) in the lower Caribbean surrounded by the sweet sounds of the Mighty Sparrow and his amazing contemporaries. The importance of music in maintaining a harmonious and civil society is so underrated it can only be fully understood through a reflection of those of us who have lived through Calypso's renaissance. Be it Barbados, Grenada, St. Lucia, TnT, etc. where I've lived or visited (thx LIAT) in my younger years had that common mysticism of happiness and joy. It's no coincidence that music is the foundation of our peaceful and loving culture. I suggest we don't let this music, our dialects and story telling disappear. We need it to maintain our cultural identity.
The mighty sparrow he is the greatest to come out of the Caribbean ever since I was child i love his music i was about six years i grow up lessoning to his music and now i am 38 and i still lesson to his music i love this legend king of calypso the mighty sparrow ❤❤❤🎉
Remember playing The Mighty Sparrow for my mum when was in hospital. Even though her eyes were closed she still managed to move her foot to the music. RIP mum😢
I am a Jamaican and a former party animal in the 80s and the 90s eventhough we had a lot of really great dance hall icons then but I must consede that no party or dance didn't complete with out the mighty sparrow him tune up vibes Respect to my Trinidadian brothers and sisters.
@@camillaniles9720 You cannot take a person's nationality from them based on where they reside. He was born in Grenada and you cannot change that. That's where he is from

I am here rolling because I put this song on and my mom let loose and she singing word to word😁🤭😂🥰. My mom is A Trini to The Bone💯👀. It's nice to see her dancing and keep telling me let's go Trinidad and play Mass..😂😁
😮 Trinidad music, I am an islander, the best music ever to free your mind and retrieving memorable time's party Cooley food, punched rum and bust up shots and chana aloe tumaka pepper sauce. Life is great with beautiful music to smoothly get by with the bs of living freedom.
Awww The Mighty Sparrow, My Mom favorite Soca Artist and today is her Heavenly Birthday, I know you are up there Partying and listening to your Favourite Guy..Here’s To You Mummy🥳🥳❣️😻missed you so so much😭😭😭😭
My folks came to England in '62 from home, carrying some children, suitcases and a clutch of Sparrow albums. Everything that's Trini, tunes that are timeless.. "Mighty Mighty"
Sparrow was my late grand mother's best house friend. He went couple years ago to Guyana and pay a visit at her home.i was then a little girl.they sat and had meal together
as a Grenadian myself, its so nice to have a star from my country so I can listen to his music and say, "yeah man thats home" nothing come close to some good old times soca
My dad's favourite...The Mighty Sparrow. He would come dancing into the kitchen in his shirtjack and shorts. Miss him so so much..and my dear land of Guyana! Long live on the music of the Sparrow ..a musical legend!
Lord Kitchener and Mighty Sparrow had been my favourites since i was a toddler. I grew up into Mighty Sparrow. and have loved his music sice then. My children fell in love his music because I was always playing. They loved the music and the lyrics. We are a famiiy of calypsonians and worshippers of Mighty Spasrrowi
Babatunde Ikotun OMG! I'm so glad i stumbled upon your comment. I grew up listening to Socal Calypso on Raypower 100.5fm in Lagos on Sundays 10am-12pm every Sundays hosted by Abraham Doe (Bless his soul) I can't possibly put in words how it changed my life, they discontinued the show few years ago & it was like my life took a different turn. I miss it so much.
Grooving to these tunes with my folks early morning here in London UK!! My mum is from Grenada and I just randomly selected this playlist. She had me gobsmacked when she came wining her waist into the room singing all the lyrics off by heart! Thank you for posting this! 🕺❤
Growing up in Grenada during the 80's I was used to waking up early to my mother singing Sparrow songs while preparing breakfast.Myself and the other neighbourhood hoods sang them too.All we knew was that Sparrow was born in Grenada and known as the calypso king of the world.I never understood what an icon this man was until years later.
I work as a CNA worker in Dominica and if I want my clients to take part in any activities is just put on the mighty sparrow and it's a party 🎉. We were still dancing to the mighty sparrow in 2023 and all the way to 2024😂
A master whose legacy is that he brought so much joy to generations. I can still recall my grandmother singing to Jean and Dinah and the 3W's songs and I'm in my seventies.
Mr Sparrow, is the best and my favorite song is English Diplomacy. I feld in love with that song as a child in Panama. My neighbor played his records every Saturday so our building was right infront of hers and that is how i know all his songs.
Can remember around 1975 I dad was always playing this music in the house ! At parties in particular! It was nice to see my parents happy in difficult times.🙂
Ravin Ramkissoon my daddy is terminally ill and this was the song he requested to hear as we lay in bed. Bringing back memories since sparrow lived here in the VI . This all he listened too.
“Nastiness goin cause your death gyal no man can stand your breath you too DYAM nasty stay away from me “. You don’t get lyrics like that anywhere . Rest in Peace Sparrow your music lives on and on and on
I grew up in the 50's his music was always heard at our House on a Sunday, my step-dad would play his music, and we would dance in the Living-Room. MEMORIES.
With a voice of perfect pitch and a genius and poetic wit, no one ever will come near to him. The absolute greatest of the genre. He will live for ever...
Mighty Sparrows been one of the best export of Soca music from the Caribbean, to me he's a musical Icon and a great musical Ambassador. He brought a sence of purpose to parties and to the dance floor, bless him, and Lord Krishna, they made you dance not fight.
I like hundreds of thousands around the globe that agrees that the mighty Sparrow is the one and only King that ever graced the calypso arena. He will never be matched or equaled. And, one does not have to be from Trinidad or Granada to embrace this fact, thank you.

This was real Soca music. It took Africa by storm. Soca music was so addictive like a religion.
Born in 92 and my parents made sure I knew my culture... Kaiso/Calypso/ Soca music is my happy place

O my gosh! The man is from Grenada
Lived and performed in T'dad but is Grenadian

Sparrow is truly the best. There is no one like Sparrow. I love Harry Belafonte but Sparrow is the best.

From SVG🇻🇨 living in the UK listening on a Sunday night in 2018 xx
A master whose legacy is that he brought so much joy to generations. I can still recall my grandmother singing to Jean and Dinah and the 3W's songs and I'm in my seventies.
The very BEST calypsonian of ALL TIME
The "Calypso King of the World".
Mr Sparrow, is the best and my favorite song is English Diplomacy. I feld in love with that song as a child in Panama. My neighbor played his records every Saturday so our building was right infront of hers and that is how i know all his songs.
Who's listening in 2020? Classics often copied never duplicated

My Uncle died yesterday and he was a big fan. May he RIP
@@smileykarenSorry to read this🙏God bless sorry for you & you're familys loss🕊
Can remember around 1975 I dad was always playing this music in the house !
At parties in particular!
It was nice to see my parents happy in difficult times.🙂
Ravin Ramkissoon my daddy is terminally ill and this was the song he requested to hear as we lay in bed. Bringing back memories since sparrow lived here in the VI . This all he listened too.
Karen Cappiello so sorry to hear. My dad is dying too. I came back to see him. And I just put this on. He is tearing up 😭😭😭
“Nastiness goin cause your death gyal no man can stand your breath you too DYAM nasty stay away from me “. You don’t get lyrics like that anywhere . Rest in Peace Sparrow your music lives on and on and on
What u talking about. Sparrow still living. Never heard so many rumors of one man dying so many times !!. Lol

Love Slinger Francisco Sparrow's music. Rude real and carefree I love him. July born like me.
I grew up in the 50's his music was always heard at our House on a Sunday, my step-dad would play his music, and we would dance in the Living-Room. MEMORIES.
All mighty sapprow is the great singer world wide
Gt Massive ...still listening in 2019🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾
I love the Congo men song
Calypso music is what sets the party on fire in the 70s ,80s and 90s. And it is still one of the top music in the world today 06 -09 -2020.
With a voice of perfect pitch and a genius and poetic wit, no one ever will come near to him. The absolute greatest of the genre. He will live for ever...
Listen to the Trade winds
Forever and ever the best
Sparrow is a genius, of the highest order, no doubt.
My Uncle died, and The Mighty Sparrow was his favourite Calypsonian.
We are playing his music at his REPASS.
The man of all soul. Thank you 🙏.
I saw The Mighty twice in Brooklyn 2004 and 5. 🙌 UP Rosie.❤
Ooh boy love these calypso the lyrics and melody these men have raw talent dancing in my bed nuff respect and love
When am feeling down I play my gospel songs, forgive me I end up playing de Sparrow "Dean and Dina" classic
Wonderful remember my young days cannot for got these tunes
Mighty Sparrows been one of the best export of Soca music from the Caribbean, to me he's a musical Icon and a great musical Ambassador. He brought a sence of purpose to parties and to the dance floor, bless him, and Lord Krishna, they made you dance not fight.
