- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ก.ย. 2024
- 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.
This is Soul.
This is what our community should be like. Peace , love , and music
Nobody Nobody lol black community 😂 tf you talking about
@IXOYE welcome to cancel culture
the most hypocritical trend ever existed
Awesome
But it is?
Peace is the one thing that will forever be impossible on earth
Hopefully, we get to have more moments like this once the virus has passed.
Ya you right😆😆😆😉😉
Damn straight.
Ohp
Yessir
This comment didn’t age well... now we got dumb ass motherfuckers running around trashing everything they see
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🤔
Me toooooo!
The circle of life, yo
It's a wheel of fortuuuune
@@nikolenik7972 damn
i come back every month to witness this masterpiece once again!
Every week
Everyday
Every hour
Each minute
Each second
I hate live singing…this is beyond beautiful. 2024! And still going strong!
I wish I could be them
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.

I have no idea what you're trying to say?
TH-cam is finally working like it's supposed to
Victor Caban haha Fr
Deprioritizing all that sovereign citizen and anti-vaxx shit has really done wonders for surfacing great content from back before people were trying to game the algorithm.
i'm the 1k like persone
I Hope They Fix it TH-cam Rewind Too
It is 2010
2024. How could anyone not love this?
RIGHT!? THIS IS JUST...IT TAKES ME SOMEWHERE
Teacher: no singing in class
Kids in the back:
xD
Yeah Brother!
XD
Lol true
Lmao xD
The definition of art. 11 years later TH-cam decided to throw this diamond in my recommendations.
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.
Too bad this was so long ago because we need more of this street talent to put smiles on our faces during this troubled time. Great group. Love it. Songs from my Era
This made me smile for the first time in a long time
I really pray life blossoms in such a way that you smile every single day 🙏🏽
No mic and smooth natural voices. Awesome!
Awesome indeed! The Original song is “Imbube” Not “Awimoweh” Imbube in Zulu is Acapela, no instruments jus pure voice, the song here in Africa was never about a sleeping Lion , it was jus a showcase of vocal talent, and that Lead guy Chanting , I don’t knw if he knws but his voice has the power to evoke The spirits of his African Ancestors 😀
Using their Gods Gifts!! Thank you for sharing beautiful men.
WOW!!! 13 yrs later...Where are they now?? Beautiful ❤️
0:59 thats me, the kid, i was so inspired by these guys that i got a couple of my friends together and now we have our own acapella group at school.
Wow
That is awesome! 🎶🎶🎶

So u ar 15 now?
We need more of this in 2024 PEACE LOVE and MUSIC!
My mans neck veins are popping like mad from being too close to his powerful voice
The world needs more of this.
These guys make the kind of music that goes straight to my soul.
Beautiful eternal masterpiece 2023 🚀🚀🚀
Fantastic! Such goodwill.
What is wrong with those people watching there? Heck I'm dancing watching the video! Love it ! 😁🎶💃🎶💖
Gotta rewatch, has the groove of soul, gospel, reggae, 50's rock,blues man this had it ALL!💖💖💖 you be jammin ....💖🎶💃🎶💖
This is one of the best versions of this song I've ever heard. ❤
Tasty groovy melodic AF and just beautiful. Thank you for sharing these notes in this life.
This is what God had in mind when it created friendship & music.
I bet all Five of them have a story to tell us. Never heard of this group before. They are really good!
FANTASTIC ! PERFECT ! GOOSEBUMPS ! Thank you guys !!! This is what we need more often ! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love it. I remember when this song came out. All us grade schoolers singing it on the playground. Loved it then and love the guys singing it now.
the guy in the white has the best part...his part makes the song so cool
That's Rome (Jerome), the leader of the group.
Kinda irrelevant to mention the white guy,ediot
Dr. A No one mentioned the white guy...
Jerkoff reply by some Jerkoff who calls himself 'Captain Pearl'.
no point on mentioning ethnicity only the insecure n jealous type got time for that shit,just watch the damn video and enjoy it
You guys are Fabulous !!!!Can’t not dance listening to you!!!⭐️💫⚡️💕❤️💕
OMG! They were amazing. The guy with the high voice to me, sounded better than the original. But the certainly deserve to be heard by a recording company. Love them. Good luck guys. 👏🏻
I legitimately just wanna walk up and sing along with these awesome dudes
Beautiful harmony ! love it.
That little girl was bout to get comfortable on the towel, then they to were done with the song. Awwww

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.
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
Her: I think he’s cheating on me...
Him and the boys:
Kaylah-Bear Lmao!
Lol😂😂😂
That’s a certified bruh moment and I love it
Old ass comments. Gtfoh
🤣🤣
In 2024 this is still amazing!!! I hope there are somewhere laughing and enjoying life!
frr
How can this not make you smile inside
Me too they are really great ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The way he put his glasses on when he started singing you aleady knew he was about to spit fire 🔥
Yes!

You know it’s good when you gotta see the words coming out of your mouth
Puksin Dheep Lol str8 up😂😂😂

The amount of uncle energy radiating from this video is unimaginable.
Mindless Chemical couldn’t have said it better myself

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

When they start singing, nobody can walk away. Totally mesmerizing.

no micro, no study, no autotune, this is singing,
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
@@lubby8293 oh really? I haven't heard that word to be used in that term.. Thanks
@@heisenburger6533 your welcome :D
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.

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
yes
Is there anyone in 2023 enjoying these wonderful voices?
Yes - I Love Their Voices - America Needs More Of This - God Bless ! 😊
Me 😂
Yess
@@mnmgag I am Local Guide Google. I would love to be your friend
@@annettecoleman314 friend
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
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 💯
These gentlemen are delightful! Such unadulterated talent on display to be joyfully shared.
They are so great.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yes yes.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Girls locker room: omg have you heard Ariana Grande’s new song?
Boys locker room:
Ya had me laughing there mate
Hahaha dead 💀
Nah for real tho
Yeah true lol
good one
can we take a second and appreciate the drip of the red guy
Fr tho😂 he was leaving leaving puddles
He got the ice
Boolin' heavy. Pretty sure that's a bluetooth headset in his right ear too, ultimate uncle experience
He looks like that rich uncle character that always shows up out of nowhere in movies and shows
Respect
😂So great!! I am 75 now and still dance to this music. Remember from dances when in high school 💜💜💜💜
everyone's gangsta until these dudes do Acapella
They’re the most gangsta dudes on the planet tho
It’s 3 am and I spent my life watching old Disney videos that make me sob. This is the perfect ending to try to go to sleep
So I'm not the only person who has nights like that
It's 2am here and same feeling. Perfect way to end the day 🤗
Same, perfect way to end my life
Goodnight sweet child!
@@yeetedmeat still with us after a month, I hope? lol
These guys need to do a recorded version
We have this recorded 3 times

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.
The lion :))
Peter griffin or Lionel Richie
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”
lool
acapella but they have a cello in the background...
Definitely my current situation
I swear I’ve just watched 15 covers of this song in a row
autist ode yeah bro cause you can hear it so well
Girl's Locker Room:
I have a crush on Jack.
Boy's Locker Room:
Bruh 😂😂😂😂
I like your comment to became 69 XD
Uh shoot look at my name dang
The guy in brown probably is Jack no🧢
Hahahahaha
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
I love Acapella singing as it shows true and real talent. I'm doing housework and this pops up...in 2024 I'm smiling and dancing. Thanks guys keep it up. Hope you're still singing and enjoying life.. ❤from the land Down Under
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
🥰 love it
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
I feel bad that the really talented are left to perform on the street while the undeserving are left to perform on stages
agreed
+Adel John Too true mate these guys are underground stars
+Adel John yeah :\ and they get paid -_-
+Adel John
same here ;(
+Adel John Too true something needs to change
this version should be in the new lion king anyone else agree?
