I have admired him for many things- his voice- grace- activism-calmness when in a discussion about injustice giving people of many Opinions to speak and then giving them examples of injustice. His friendship with Dr. Martin Luther King helped him to continue to work on behalf of justice for his entire life. A life well lived!! Thank you for sharing your beauty with us. Rest in Peace 🙏🏽❤️🌈🌹
Harry Belefonte (born Harold Belanfontaine Jr.), is one beautiful man. I adore his voice, sexiness, looks, sense of humor and the energy he puts into his characters and his stage performances. I also admire his humanitarianism. He gives so much of himself to people. He lives such an unselfish life. I adore every bit of this historical, intellegent, renaissance man.
My dear Mother loved Harry's music. She had a studio version of Matilda, with the whistling, on vinyl. This video is impressive, despite, only offering a fragment of the lyrics, displaying Harry's showmanship, abroad!
Thanks to the "Internet" and "TH-cam" that i can watch a live recording of a evergreen classic that grows fresh with every year.I was 6 years old when this song was sung and still enjoying listening to it in 2014!
I didn't read all of the comments, but whatever you said, he is great. Every time I have a chance to listen his songs or watch video, I am doing this with pleasure. All his concerts a big time show. SUPERB !!!!
I used to listen to his record albums growing up as a small child of 6 or 7 years old and still love his songs ! Need to look for his records at thrift stores ! Hope I find some of his old records !
If you have a library card that let's you use Freegal, much of Belafonte's songs are available on that application. The music is DRM free & you own the songs you download. I think you're allowed to download up to 5 songs per week.
Rest in peace God 's soldier for justice and equality. A soldier for peace and humanity. Our world was touched by his caring and kindness that will never be forgotten for years to come!!!!!!!!!
Many years ago, one of my eighth grade classmates so adored Harry Belafonte that she wrote a poem about his magnetism and vitality. When I heard the recording of him singing "Matilda" at Carnegie Hall, I understood her poem!
I studied piano from an early age and even tho my mother exposed me to all kinds of music and artists sadly ,I was t too distracted by the music of my teenage years to appreciate all this man was as a singer ,entertainer , humanitarian and all around human being . Beautiful on the inside as well as such a handsome man. He certainly will be missed. Mr. B. - May you RIP❤️
My first cruch at 4 or 5 years of age ..What a wonderful entertainer he was, with the most delicious sence of humor- and a very kind man with wisdom and grace and dignety.I had very good taste at a young age!
Muy muy bueno agradable, ameno, divertido,de todo una entrega al público, pocos como Harry.Tiene una esencia conmovedora feliz de haberlo encontrado en esta pagina
Harry Belafonte a cantato mattina Harry Bella Fonte a delle belle canzoni del secolo passato. Auguri Harry. Sei il piu' sei il piu' grande cantante. Del secolo. Passato. Complimenti Harry .
His Work was exactly for him. His touch was essential to mankind also With Martin Luther King and Belafonte was genious to make lyrics and he was a man With supple -lithe words❤️
- - - all my young at heart friends we have definitely swayed with this song - - - in our times whenever West Indies team used to visit our country - - - with legends like Sir Garry Sobers, Sir Vivian Richards , Lance Gibbs , Clive Loyd, Rohan Kanhai, Wesley Hall - - - this song used to ring across - - - feeling nostalgic ?
A great documentary about a GREAT MAN. He gave millions, his prestige, his time, his contacts for the cause of civil rights. Film very faithful to his autobiography, "My Song."
This record my parents bought home when I was a little child. Then I thought ha was en old man, Belafonte. Nor either I understood what he said when he talked in English. Now I think he looks like he is very young. Mama Mia - it is me. I have got older.
LMAO them musicians and full audience wreck the damn song HARRDDDD 😂😂😂 Goodness.. Mr Belafonte was, is, and will always be the most handsome gentleman for me..! What an amazing man indeed ⚘⚘⚘
Whao! I can't stop watchin Belafonte Matilda.this is comedy of our time. Musicians overenjoyed in Sweden that they lost their keys. Over 40yrs women probably were matildas at their prime time. Bigspenders had a good show reason they spend big. The two men with Belafonte never had any Matilda in their lives except Belafonte. Scholarships struggled and are still struggling for life. I love this piece.
Harry is one my all-time favorite singers who looks black, speaks like an Olde English lord, and is only rivaled by Bob Marley with his island heart and soul and impolitical correctness.
You are all correct in your comments. I saw him in Harkem, New York where he was born. He performed also at Carnegie Hall. Met him at a concert in Trinidad. Saw him perform in Jamaica also. HARRY! MAY GOD RECEIVE YOU INTO HIS LOVING ARMS😂😂😂

Harry is one my all-time favorite singers who looks black, speaks like an Olde English lord, and is only rivaled by Bob Marley with his island heart and soul and impolitical correctness.
He was black but those days standards. He is black. Its a social construct
"Women over forty!......Matilda, Matilda...." hahahaha. This is the epitome of a true old school all around entertainer and musician wrapped in one.
I'm wet and I'm a male. Mind you, I've been wet for quite a while now. Probably too long.
Großartig ... Witzig ... Charmant ... thank you for uploading ;-)
So schon alles gut entreteinerexcellent
Spectacular ‼️At his best.
