Listening to you now, after having received the news of your passing, I am yet again enchanted by your wisdom and enormous heart for people. What an indescribable loss for us all. May you indeed roam the African Sky!
Ah Johnny Clegg I remember him in the 80s in the UK the song that struck me the most was umbaqanga music but I loved the energy rhythms and Johnny's dance moves, so sad to learn of his passing I've been catching up on his life and music in recent months. What an incredible man. RIP Johnny
Johnny Clegg is such a kind, wise and humble man. I enjoyed his music, growing up in Zimbabwe. It was a pleasure to see him live in Phoenix a few years ago. It's nice to see him doing so well with his health challenges. God bless him. His life and his work has been a blessing on this earth.
Just cannot believe you're no more with us on earth, and right here on South African soil where you belong, Johnny Clegg. Ever since hearing of your early demise. I tear everytime I watch a video of you. Rest in peace, White Zulu. 🎸🎤
May your soul rest in peace Mr Clegg, you have uplifted us in your song for so many years and giving us hope. Juluka made as proud in the 80's . You have shown the world that humans need to stop looking at race and love one another. Thank you for your wisdom. Lala ngoxolo Madlebe.
We played the crossing at the memorial for my son Mark who died at 17 in 2005. It was a terribly sad but joyous memorial with south africans from every culture joining to remember his beautiful life. Such a special song. Thank you Johnny!
Lord know how much I love and respect this man!!! I always wanted to see him performing, it’s too bad I might never see him performing 😭 I would love to sit down with him just to shake hands with him, also to thank him for. Everything, good music. Lord be with you legend!
Gift Nco... Your words got to me! I was fortunate to see him when he played in Ventura Theater in "95 (I think it was) YES, I have waaay a lot of respect for him. Nuff respect, Gift Nco
Every single molecule that you gave to this world while you lived here, through your music, through your passion, through your very being, remains with us. And all of the love that we had for you while you lived here remains with you as you move on. And though you are sadly missed, we are still all connected. Spirit is the journey. May your spirit Journey forward in joy!
man his death hit me hard wah, met you in washington state met you again in tennesse, back to back concerts, beautiful music from a beautiful soul. really hoped you'd get better from cancer, but it takes the best of us, you are now at a better place
He looks so much better than he did in August. Very nice interview. I watch Johnny's video of The Crossing, and then the tribute version that Jesse helped put together. Very emotional, both of them. An amazing singer-songwriter. A real treasure. I was blessed to see him in our small concert hall in Eugene, Oregon both times he came through the area. Energizing and wonderful shows, both times, and that while he was recovering. The man has heart. Slainté, Johnny Clegg!
Thank you Johnny and Band! You have been in my life and heart for a long long time! Your music has touched and continues to touch my soul! Much love to you, your wife and very gifted Jesse whose music I embrace as much as I have yours.
Oh never knew that he passed on, this where the revolutionary artist of our days. I just bumped myself in this sad message, while searching for his music to refare him as a musician. Love you Mr John Clegg Rest well Sir
My dad has been fighting this cancer since 1998.... it is awful..... Johnny this may sound horrible but I am happy/sorry you went.... you left the world with dignity.... love you bud RIP ... you remain a legend👍
My Mom died 3 weeks from diagnosed with pancreatic cancer being clean a month prior. Truly an outlier, but he was an outlier in everything. Remarkable man.
There's such a great deal about Johnny Clegg we'll hardly know. Here's a start. An amazing talent. He's a perpetual motion and sound machine. The world will miss him & aren't you lucky if you just discovered him!
My life would have been fuller and richer if I had known him better sooner. He was one of the greatest, and most fully human, human beings of our time.
So beeindruckend dieser Mensch! Was für ein Glück seiner Musik und seinen Gedanken zu zu hören. Was für ein Leuchten in seinen Augen trotz fortgeschrittener Krankheit.
Johnny, I have always enjoyed your music. it was a pleasure to me, I was able to see you on stage in Martinique (fwi) - RIP Man in the sky with Madiba !
Tu nous as donné une très belle leçon d'humanité et d'humilité. Tes combats devraient etre ceux de nous tous. Merci Grand Zoulou. Je ne t'oublierai jamais
"It was an interregnum where the 'old order' wouldn't die ,and so the New Order couldn't be born... " wow, Johnny... such a beautiful simple perceptive wisdom... RiP! Hamba Kahle!
Jane Dutton looked magnificent and oh Johnny Clegg. What an enormous loss to society. Even now his words ring encouraging and positive. 7 months later RIP.
The most profound thing Johnny said here, was "Turn it into a crossover mix, which is unique to South Africa." THIS IS A BOMBSHELL!!! This is the melting pot idea, it is decried by many modern progressives, but if you separate culture in one geographic location, the result is conflict. In the name Johnny's memory, I pray for all the people of the world to embrace their neighbors, your internet clan is great, but the people who really matter are your community. If South Africa had gone melting pot after the end of apartheid they may be the greatest nation in the continent. They instead ended up with corrupt communists.
Soy una mujer Chilena vivo en Vanderbijlpark....y con muchas ganas de seguir viviendo en este país en Gordon Bay.. también puede que regrese a mi país 🇨🇱 Siempre admire a Johnny Clegg por su gran corazón al pueblo S .A Gracias por escribir ☀️

Me too, grew up in Zim & enjoyed his music. Such a beautiful soul. He saw beyond the colour of another person's skin
Shalom Johnny I was fortunate to have been a frontline security at one of your concerts years back.God bless your soul and your music

When people asked me to list famous people I'd invite to dinner, Johnny was always number 1 on that list.

And all of the love that we had for you while you lived here remains with you as you move on. And though you are sadly missed, we are still all connected. Spirit is the journey.
