- TJIMC - New York City. Rome has a new crew. Catch them every weekend in Washington Square Park. ** Original Caption **
I randomly heard these guys perform the weekend before while walking through the park. Blown away. I went back the next weekend with my FlipCam (remember those?) and took this video. I kept in touch with Rome for a while (white shirt - lions and tigers and bears) but we've lost touch. It's been many many years now. I still listen to them often and love that some of their music will live on forever on the inter-web. A wee ma way, a wee ma way, it's the lion song.

The real talent
No study? How did they sing the song altogether
@@heisenburger6533 he meant study like where is the mic and computers and things

I agree 100% It's beautiful
Huh?
You hate live singing.
?????
@@Pals777 usually yeah because I like music the way it was played originally…that said though these guys kind of sound as good as if not better than the original. Not kidding when I say I went to steely Dan in concert and they played the same song twice in a row but slightly different and both versions stink.
@@raymondcarter1137
I have no idea what you're trying to say?
Keep living and keep believing. There is still a lot of good left in this world. You’re still here.
The amount of uncle energy radiating from this video is unimaginable.
Mindless Chemical couldn’t have said it better myself

Lmao
They dressed like the uncle that say “I ain’t see you since you was this small.”
What a comment! Haha
😂😂😂😂 fuck ..I spit out all the chips I was eating

Every last one 😂😂😂
What a comment with goood quility
Man, now I miss my uncle
These gentlemen are delightful! Such unadulterated talent on display to be joyfully shared.
They are so great.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yes yes.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
😂So great!! I am 75 now and still dance to this music. Remember from dances when in high school 💜💜💜💜
When they start singing, nobody can walk away. Totally mesmerizing.

I love them just fantastic . This generation of mine made great music without a lot of cursing and disrespect for women and others . They will always be classic in their styles . God bless them all .❤
The lead singer veins pop in his neck, while he's singing, which IMO is a sign of a great singer. Al Green always did that. Bravo gentlemen.
Thx for mentioning that because i love me some 70s Al Green
When your music teacher puts you in a group with your best friends

TH-cam waited a full ass Decade to show me this and it was worth the wait
Same here man
SAME HERE
Right, but it would have been awesome to get it quicker lol
Same
What did you expect from You Tube, they are a left wing propaganda network. I am sure they thought this was racist, having black guys singing about lions to an African rhythm. Lucky it got out at all.
Can we just talk about how this man is belting the melody at a pretty darn high key and still rocking it no sweat?
@Nathaniel's Phone damn, he's gifted.
Look at 1:14 he sweats
He's pouring! He keeps wiping himself down! Not that that is taking anything anyway from the epically awesome amazeballs spewing from this entire performance.
He’s not meaning literal sweat people...
Yeah his great i wish i could have talent like him one day
They're not drunk
They're just talented 😊
Even if they’re they aren’t hurting nobody
Brown shirt guy’s falsetto is incredible for how deep his voice actually is
Basses tend to have nice falsetto but weak mid range. At lease, that's what the barbershop people told me...
It is
Voce di testa... amazing
@@cicadaboi101 I always suspected that. I like my falsetto, but I don't have a good range

This song was a hit on the radio in the early 70s, I was around seven years old and I got so excited to hear it, I thought it was magical!
Cookouts gotta be crazy wit them
oh my god yes
A barbecue is all I want
Lmaoo
Yes.
To the 1.2k people who disliked this... who hurt you?

They must be jealous and immature... some of them are probably the kind of people who berate other people to make themselves feel better because they think it shows they are better than them. But it only shows they are insecure, immature and self-centered asses.

1:46 I get severe chills EVERY TIME!
He killed it
Listened to it once and played it again so I could dance around the living room. Such energy! Pure high notes from the tenor. Wonderful!
Thank you! This makes us happy
Thank this man for recording horizontally
Obi Garvin probably because he didn’t film it on a phone, it’s 2010 and no phone back then would’ve had that level of decency in quality
🤣😅
Clutch!
@@ridleycoyte Uhh its recorded in 720, which is the recording quality of the iphone 4 which came out in 2010.

Beautifully done, but there's some BBQs missing some uncles on this day.

So true lol
Ha! Definitely
Ha haaaaa! No doubt! Was thinking the same thing.
My friend was dying in a very rare cancer form, i used to play this to him and he loved . God bless every child man and woman, peace ✌🏽
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Absolutely PROUD to be African. This is BEAUTIFUL guys. Love from South Africa 😎🥳❤️🇿🇦👌🏻
So many comments about uncles singing at a Barbecue, all i can say is if your uncles can sing so beautifully and choose to do so at family events you are very blessed.
👌
this is just how they think they sound
Omg shut up i really hate people like you
'if you have uncles who are singing like this at barbecues pls marry me' LOL
Word 💯
just upset about Disney studios not hiring these guys for lion king 2019 live-action
In the new movie they butchered the songs
True stuff🤔

I agree. and Thank You for the kind words
This makes me cry, I’m 43 and the talent on display here is phenomenal, I’ve got a 10 year old daughter that I’ve not seen for 4 years, I fight and battle in court to gain some kind of access to her and I get tired and frustrated, when I have a bad day I come straight to this video, it cheers me up instantly and I think of me and Sienna watching the lion king in years gone by and I know I will get to see her again. I will never give up on you Sienna xx
Stay strong brother. And don't give up on her
Stay strong man. God bless you in Jesus name amen
😤💪🏻‼️
Stay strong...all the strength to you...keep fighting
She will be looking for you soon.
everyone's gangsta until these dudes do Acapella
They’re the most gangsta dudes on the planet tho
They are performing on streets and Cardi B is performing on stage.
Let that sink in.
lol
Sex sales..that's why.. bro..
NOT ANYMORE. THEY WERE TUXEDOS EVERYTIME THEY SING NOW!!!!
Don't seen right does it.
What does the sink have to do with anything?

stop harassing me pls the lord can never forget us nor leave or forsake us
Aka it’s not a cappella
The who?
Love this! Don’t know how people standing there watching we’re not smiling and dancing. 🤔
Can you imagine how it was in the 50s & 60s on almost every street corner listening to this? What an easy & beautiful time that was.
I was there in the 50s & 60s. No one was playing this or listening to it. If it’s so great why don’t you hear more songs like it.
And in 1938 when it was originally a hit for Solomon Linda.
If there was more people like these FINE GENTLEMEN I believe the world would be a better place
Ur funny
Michael Myers! Love the pic XD
Nah, their five voices and the bassist in the background cover basically the whole range. The rest of us are unnecessary. Humanity would do fine if it were just them.
Well, them and Avi.
Hardly anyone is born with this kind of talent

Well done from one Englishman that misses Africa like crazy. Peace to you guys
I am a singer from many yrs ago, and these gentlemen are great. I could listen to them all day. Bless you guys!!!
Not many signed artists are capable of this Acapella ability. They must be the dislikers of this video because Y'all are amazing!!!
@harry pag does it really matter tho? You can't even hear it😂

just a couple of people trying to make this world a better place
They actually did, mate. For a few minutes, a few million viewers saw the better part of this world and were given that little chance to think about how to make it better themselves ;)
just a couple of guys being dudes. just a couple o dudes being guys you know.
I always come back to this! full of good vibes; to the performers, the audience, the scenery.. good ol late 2010 vibes. seems like simpler times. I Hope they and everyone who comes back to this are well!
I love this comment. Thank you for it. It was hard times back then too. But music is eternal medicine and we made it through
I wish i had the skill of making people happy with my voice. anyone capable of this kind of harmonics should be on the radio, this is beautiful soul cleansing sounds.

I remember the 1960s were like this and we all got along ! I wish we could go back to that beautiful time ! These men are magnificent n 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️⭐️⭐️
13 years later, and still a great performance!
Imagine how pissed you’d be if you saw them and had to be somewhere in a rush 😂
I just be late.... I don't give a Flying Squirrel Fuck!! Follows the rule of thumb: Stop and check the roses beauty.
Too fucking pissed. I’d just have to be late. Fuck that 😂
I suddenly wouldn't be in a rush anymore 😂
Would take the L happily
I’m gonna be late. This is awesome
Me at 4 AM: “man I gotta get some sleep
TH-cam recommended: how about watch an acapella group do a street performance of the lion sleeps tonight?
Me: “Ah wimmba way ah wimmba ah”

So beautiful as a South African to see our melody traveling to distant lands and talking to descendants of Africans in foreign lands ❤️🇿🇦
You’re melody? This was written by the tokens
@@docholiday1806
I mean, you can easily do a cursory search if you're so sure about what you're writing.
This is is indeed South African (it sounds South African to any person who knows music) first written & sung by Solomon Linda (it was called Mbupe) way back in in the 1930s. The Tokens covered & ripped it in 1961 & made millions off it.
@@Melanin_King895 sounds like a totally different piece. The tokens did it better.
@@docholiday1806 Doesn't matter, they didn't create it
@@louispeeters1151 well, like I said. They did it better. If the tokens didn’t record this song, then nobody would know it.
In sitting here grinning, crying, singing and dancing and in too old for that lol! Wonderful!!!! I used to s sing this all the time!! More please!
One of my favorite songs, thank you gentlemen it was lovely to hear.
This was the last music my mother wanted to listen to before she died. She loved the soulful spirit in this version above all other recordings of this song. Thank you guys! She loved it so much!
