I waited 25 years to finally have the privilege of seeing your father live in concert in London. You carry his legacy and make the music your own. Thank you.
Such a beautiful, heart enduring and touching song. I also lost my Dad and this song is so meaningful and relevant to me too. Beautiful lyrics, music composition and video that emulates your true emotions and feelings. Utterly amazing, thank you Jesse 😊 🙏 ❤️
Jesse, what a great song, I love it! I first heard your Dad's music in the mid-1970s. I couldn't believe it when I learned that he was coming to Edmonton (Alberta, Canada) to play at the Edmonton Folk Music Festival many years ago. I was assigned to work with him as his liaison, and he was so nice to me. His band played at the afterparty that night, and during the show, between songs, he looked at me and said, "This one is for Randy," and broke into Scatterlings. I was blessed to see him Edmonton three more times, including the show at Festival Place, just east of Edmonton, when you toured with him. I saw you perform there, and bought your CD. I still love Clarity. Thank you for this great video and thank you for your amazing Father. We so very much miss him, but how enriched our lives have been because of him.
It's so emotional... We really miss your Dad Johnny Clegg... I remember when I was kid at my grandpa house in Zaïre🇨🇩 he used to play Johnny's songs on a big black CD 💽such as Woza Friday was his favorite song💜.... Yeah we live only once but a masterpiece remain forever.
Deeply moving Jesse...you will reach great heights with your beautiful voice...you are blessed with a legacy and memories of your special Dad..and you are a legend in your own right...❤
Jesse you sound so much like your Dad and he would be very proud. Your Dad set new standards in South Africa that many people took to heart, he made a massive difference. x
Jesse,your dad's music is some of my favorite music.i still listen to Scatterlings as though it came out just yesterday. I love his music,and I am so happy,for you that you've kept his legacy going. I still remember growing up in East Africa listening to Great Heart,and I think of that song as the song of my growing up. Thank you Jesse
Thank you for sharing a gimps of the the awesome man that Johnny Was and still is. He is an inspiration for all. And the loss is still felt by many. To Jesse. Your talent runs deep, and going by the home movie in the back ground. We see why. A loving caring father, that shared his passion with you from an early age. Keep doing what you are doing and keep it strong. Keep your fathers memory alive in all of us.
I lost my own Dad a few weeks ago and this beautiful tribute has taken on even deeper meaning for me. Your Dad is smiling down on you. His music has been comforting to me and so has this❤️
I am so absolutely in love with this song....from the first day you released it I knew it would be a hit! So many people can relate your lyrics to their own lives and the production is amazing.
When sang "So long", I felt that. Intriguing how throughout you said "I'm not ready yet" but at the end you said So Long as if composed and singing this song has helped you grieve much enough to say goodbye to him. My deepest condolences for your loss. We will proceed to remember him with you. Take care. With Love.
Jesse, you’ve swooped in and released the most poignant song of 2021. Your lyrics resonate with my own experience of loss, and it’s an incredible feeling to be able to hear something that is SO relatable. Thank you for creating this beautiful song 🙏
Such a stunning song!! We are so proud of you, the artist you have become. The hurt and loss doesn’t get any easier, but remember you keep the ones you love close in your heart!!
I lost my father in 2004. It's now 2022 and these words ring true. Every minute of everyday. We were both blessed to have fathers to love and who loved us, that makes missing so hard. Thank you, Jesse. X
Jesse when I listen to your music, I get excited about what I'm listening to just the same as I did listening to your dad's music and I think that is a really wonderful thing. You've carried on the awesomeness of your dad's music in a really cool way.
Your dad was an inspiration. We mourn with you, Jesse. It felt like I had lost an uncle because I grew up with his voice echoing around our mixed-race household. I can only imagine what it was like actually knowing him and the loss you felt once he passed. He will always be with you, sending you love and light. P.S. I absolutely LOVE this song, I cry every time I listen to it but I love it! I'm sure your dad is up in heaven jamming to this song.
ooooooh mon DIEU je les larmes aux yeux j’aime ta music continue comme ça tu es aussi un grand messieurs comme ton papa 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🥰🇨🇩🇨🇩🇨🇩🇨🇩🇨🇩🇨🇩🇨🇩🇨🇩🇨🇩
