- This is Sam's cover of Jamaica Farewell, originally recorded by Harry Belafonte. Hope you enjoy. All I ask is that you leave a comment and rate he song. As always please feel free to make requests, you'd be surprised to know what kind of goodies I have in the stash lol.
Great cover !!! Sam Cooke is probably the most outstanding singer of all time...
he was!!!
sam owned every song he ever sung. greatest voice ever.
Harry Belafonte must be proud that Sam Cook sang this song like this.
This great singer only sing for a short time period of time and this is one of the the songs he blessed us with and for that I am for ever grateful, as a young black boy I needed inspiration to go out and challenge the world but at that time there were not many black entertainers my mother would allowed us to listen to but Sam was one that my beautiful mother approved of and so I listen to the gospel and then Soul music but the small town I grow up in travel was not an option it took money and we had none but thanks to Sam I was able to travel vicariously on the beautiful vocals of the one and only Sam Cooke, I remember this song because it took me to a place I have never been and Sam made it sound so wonderful and for three minutes I wasn't a poor kid anymore I was a blessed percipient holding a ticket to travel on a journey with the one and only Sam Cooke and to this day I still travel with Sam sixty years later on the same beautiful trip and the amazing thing is my mother is there and she seem to smile and approve as Sam sings the song that brought us back together and for that once again I have been blessed.
First time hearing this song by Sam.every day I hear something new by him. What a Gem we lost .
How can you not enjoy such a sincere cover by Cooke

HARRY & MARTY & NOW SAM...ALLBLISSFUL!!!
I love it
Hermoso... lo he dicho ya: un clásico da para muchas cosas. Bella interpretación. ¿Ya vieron el video del intérprete de tambor de metal? ¿Y el de otros intérpretes en disco de acetato? También son grandes... un clásico siempre da para muchas interpretaciones creativas, como ésta, que es muy buena.
miss lue did luv sing da sang yah 2
I heard this in Rabbids Go Home and I had to find the right version of this song
Great voice
What a voice :)
quality problem. stereo converted to mono but one Chanel is missing. Recommend a re-do, not a complaint.
@trevycoley83 This music was meant to be listen to not hidde away in some volt
There's only one Sam Cooke and he and Belafonte, along with Jackie Wilson are the best.
Life Is Riddim
delicius
A voice smoother than bourbon Sam Cooke has!
@casullen Lol! Funny thing is that I have all of the songs listed above but YT has given me a hard time about the whole copyright jazz.They told me one more copyrighted post and they're gonna erase my account.So I'm kinda walkin' on thin ice.
trevycoley83 welp, the ice held up
Um matched talent
THE BIGFIST YES HE WAS SIR!! YES HE WAS!!!
good
Cheeze710..Sam is the greatest of all times..
@trevycoley83 I gotta get a hold of those...
I never knew he did a cover of this song.
@belizeambushgal I know what you mean, to american it sounds perfect but in spanish it doesn't sound right I understand what you are saying.
I have them. I'll try to post them, hopefully they don't get me again, last time they stripped my songs from my channel due to the whole copyright bull.
sorry Alabaster box i have to correct you he not one of the greatest, he is the grestest
Butters-I have to correct you:He was, by far, the greatest!
oh,yes!!!
Nah. No offense to Denzel, but he's been in enough biopics. Not sure if he can sing either.
Bop
After Belafonte it was all downhill.
Compared with Harry Belafonte...
