    I've loved Johnny from the first drumbeat of "Scatterlings" and ever since. What a man, what a human being. There has simply been no white man who can dance like he did. I didn't know I could feel so much hurt for someone I never actually knew. The world is a lesser place without you Johnny. RIP.

    JC was someone who played a role in most peoples lives that grew up in SA, even if you didn't know it, no hate in his heart and loved all, I told my wife he is one person I would have loved to have met and spent time with, who is your person living or dead that you wished you had met, I have a few, Nelson Mandela is one, I believe they were both humble people.

    Johnny Clegg meant so much to so many. He embraced a culture not his own with all his heart because he had love in his heart for humanity - a virtue missing in most of our so-called leaders, and a quality which we are in vital need of if we are to survive these difficult times. God rest you, and bless you Johnny Clegg. Your legacy is strong.

    I have been listening to Jonny my whole life through my dad Hal Hasseriis, he had always been an absolute fan and he brought me up on his tapes and c’ds growing up on the farm. Dela was our song!!
    He met my step my step mom Karin Zoller… she was a long time friend of the Clegg family through her brother who had passed in 2010 she took me to my first live concert and it was one of my still today biggest highlights of my life!
    I had the privilege to take my kids to Jessie Cleggs concert at Reddam house Ballito this year and I must say this song Jonny and Jessie did was the most inspirational song to me and reminded me of my father seeing I hear feel and go through life in such a way he died when I was 12 years old and I am now 34 the love and pain for him never leaves it is never easier! I miss my dad every day!

Being a child of a father that has achieved amazing things is really heavy on me and amazing at the same time. My heart is spilling over and over... amazing, this is true art!
    Jesse, let your spirit and soul overflow onto the world. We hear you, we feel you... your music moves us!

      Same experience for me Lindelani. This song is more than just a song. I believe it is spiritual, in the true sense, and able to bring healing between many children and their fathers. Each person has their own journey and story in relation to their father/father figure, and might not identify fully with every WORD in the song, but the SPIRIT will resonate with each one who truly wants the good, and wants to heal and longs for harmony and true healing in their life.
      I discovered this song this morning and immediately sensed that I should share it with my dad, who is fortunately still alive. I asked him to play it loud and his response indicated that the song is really doing its work - first in me, and also in him.
      All the best to you on your journey. From one lover of the good to another.

    What a beautiful Father and Son moment. Jesse you should be proud of your Dad who selflessly raises the plight of the majority the best way he could! If you’ve ever wondered if all superheroes wore capes, yours wore Zulu skins...be comforted . RIP Mr. Johnny Clegg and thank you for your contribution.

    Great man and musician - he spoke to so many people from around the world. I was fortunate enough to see him in person and up close during three different concerts in Milwaukee and Madison, Wisconsin, USA many years ago. But those memories still make me happy. His song "The Crossing" came out shortly after my husband died. I must have listened to it hundreds of times over the years. It was only a few days ago I found out Johnny had passed in 2019. It felt like I'd lost a friend. So glad Jesse is also talented musician - we need more Clegg music making this world s better place.
    My condolences to his family - if I felt like I've been kicked hard upon hearing of his passing recently, I can only imagine their grief. Godspeed Johnny - we lost another light in a world that so often only focuses on the gray areas of this "Cruel, Crazy Beautiful World."

    😢. Johnny is love; he's in the Heavens where he's been since birth. His earthly teachings ended on earth age 66. Surely he's dancing, singing, and loving the beauty of souls in concert with friends behind the pearly gates.

    Jonny's music made me understand the beauty of the African music and that it was okay to be diverse. I was always curious about his music which made my spirit light up somehow. I loved his music though my generation may find it boring lol also strange how I've been thinking about his music just few days ago, little did we know that our legend will soon be gone.'
