You and your songs will never be forgotten, my country man, you were always love and dear to our family. As a young girl grown up in Jamaica West Indies, there was a slot on Radio Jamaica 🇯🇲 at 7:55 am, every morning known as Calypso Corner we never miss a morning when we know your song will be playing. Oh my country man you always make us proud. I was blessed to have the opportunity to watch you on Television when you took your children to Jamaica so that they could tour the Island of your mother and Father’s country. I am mourning your departure but you have left an excellent legacy behind that no one can replace. Although you have departed this world before me, I will always remember that we are “The World.” My sincere condolences to your wife, children, other family members, and friends. You have opened the doors for our race, those after you will pick up from where you left. All Jamaicans are mourning your loss, you put our country on the World’s Map we will never forget you. Jamaica 🇯🇲 will always be your “Island In The Sun.”Rest In Peace my brother.
@Hyacinth Reynolds: So beautifully said!! I’ve been a fan of his since I was 12 and always wanted to see Jamaica. In my 20’s, I finally did. Since then, I’ve been to other Caribbean islands but always claim Jamaica is one of the prettiest due to its varied topography … the beaches, of course, but also the mountains, jungle, rivers and waterfalls. We drove past Duncan which our driver claimed was the home of Harry Belafonte. I saw him perform whenever he came to Toronto. I even ended up getting his autograph because we both went to the same Chinese restaurant following one of his performances and luckily, my program was tucked in my purse.
I always enjoy his singing such a handsome man. I have been following him from a young girl from Jamaica West Indies we love and adore Harry he is the best.
Incredible life. A Blessing from God!!!! To us undeserving human beings. RIP my country man. You were certainly one in a Million!!!! No doubt whatsoever!!!’n
My god, what a FUN concert! It had me up and moving. This is DAMN good music from a DAMN good performer. And he was backed up by some INCREDIBLY talented musicians, too.
One of the most talented , charismatic, intelligent ...& oh so handsome Harry Belafonte ❤️ !!! .... Been his fan from the 60's ...God bless & long live Harry B. ..love from India . 💕
He was the most beautiful man ever to grace this planet. I fell hard at age 8 or 9 the first time I saw and heard him on Sullivan. Sail on and good journey and thank you thank you thank you!!!
After enjoying one of his amazing (and impeccable) performances in Toronto, my husband and I (and another couple) popped over to Chinatown for a late dinner. After ordering and while enjoying a drink, I suddenly heard his distinctive, raspy voice and there he was! His table was a mere 14’/15’ away; the restaurant wasn’t busy at that late hour so I was able to look at him throughout dinner. Before his meal arrived, my husband slipped over and asked if he’d sign my program which he did; fortunately, I had it in my bag. I still have it!
#Days can never disappear. Those who songs the songs are now in the heavenly realms. Singing for the Father Who gave them the opportunity to perform with the Father. #jjdr
RIP Mr Harry Belafonte, you left us with some of the best music. And thank you for your selfless service to civil rights movement, and your effort of trying to make this world a better place.
For those of you who have complemented me on my my comment on Mr. Harry BELAFONTE I wish to thank you all most sincerely. We all know how great an entertainer he was, those words came directly from my heart and his songs will forever be remembered and sing in my household. Our favorite song is “Jamaica Farewell “. One love to all of you.
Reminds me of my grandmom...at 80 yrs who loved singing ..Hole in the bucket ...way back in the 60's .!!! 😊 Now I sing it to my grandkids !!! .Long live the legend .
Harry Belafonte is a living legend. One of the great entertainers of the twentieth century. At the forefront of the civil rights and human rights movements. A remarkable human being . Now ninety - three years old . May G- d bless him and May he still have many more years.
Belafonte IS in a league of his own. The man has been entertaining me for sixty- six years now and I never ever get tired of listening and watching - NEVER !!!!
Telegenic, versatile , charismatic, a wonderful repertoire. One of the greatest entertainers of all time. G- d bless Harry Belafonte now ninety - three .
Un humain en or. Je vous aime M. Je vous crois parmi les étoiles rempli de paix et lumière. Aujd j' écoute vos chansons , elles sont le lien qui reste pour tjrs avec moi. Merci 🇪🇸❤❤❤❤🙏🌴🌹🌴
I'll second that! A fine man. An example of SOUL, an example of how to live, sing, etc. A fine man. Namaste Harry I love you, always. Hug my mother for me when you see her...
Menno, you have successfully perpetuated Belafonte’s reputation for generations to come . But remember my friend without Albert Nuttall none of this would have been possible. He laid the foundation for people like you to build on. Thank you again. G-d bless Harry Belafonte now ninety - four years old .
The way to HEAVEN is thru believing that Jesus died on the cross for our sin. Ask Him to forgive you for your sin and follow Him. JESUS is coming back to earth to get His Church.
Harry Belafonte is my cousin..from the hills of Alexandria, Jamaica..Now you can hang out with our Aunt Edith in Paradise. Rest in The Embrace of The Most High Cuz.
So talented.So versatile. Actor. Singer .Activists . So handsome. A man blessed with Everything. Blessed with long life also. God Bless his life only thing missing is his wings Heaven has a place prepare for him he will be leading the choir in heaven when the time comes. Love You Sir Belafonte.💝
I knew him from about 3 days and wow i think i found a new legend for my self i wish that i lived in his days i really liked his type of music and his voice and his personality 💕
I am 76 now and already ❤60 years in love with Harry Belafonte. For my 16th birthday I asked an LP from my than boyfriend. I think he is extremely handsome, has a tremendous voice - not only a singing voice but also a speaking voice - and is a beautiful human being. Tip: listen to his song “skin to skin”. Wonderful!!! 10:55
Thank lord for giving us all the blessings of hearing this wonderful man. Who is now with you. We will some day all meet up again with you and the people we all loved in our lives.😊❤❤
I love all his music,I am Matilda and he sang my praise in one of songs,this makes me proud any where I go and I know it's the same thing with all Matilda all over the world, thanks Harry, I love yah all
I'm writing this in 2023, a day after death of the master Harry. We'll never forgot him, as much time ago said the poet, Horace, "Non omnis moriar!" - "I'll not die at all." We'll always remember his greatest hits, with O-day (Banana boat Song), at the top.
Ik keep watching and listening again and again. Can't get enough of this stuff. It seems to me as Harry performs almost without any effort, but I think appeareances are deceptive,. It's pure professionalism.
He will never be forgiven, because his life resume says it all... His legacy speaks volume. A man that wears many hats and he has left an indelible mark on the world especially with those he came in contact with. Rest in peace Mr. Belafonte and may light perpetual shine on you.
I listened to Harry Belefonte back in the 1950's with my father. He was a Merchant Sailor, who brought the love of music of the World home to his family. When I (still) listen to Harry Belefonte's songs, I remember the happy days when I would listen with my father to the songs of Jamaica.
I am so grateful for “ You Tube “. Never imagined that I would live to see all the wonderful Belafonte world wide concerts. I am now eighty years old and have been following Belafonte for sixty - seven years . He’s ninety four years old G-d bless him !!!!!! May he live for many more years And thank you again “You Tube “. What a thrill !!!!
Rest in Peace, Mr. Belefonte. Thank you for making this world better in so many ways.
I love you
We loved you Harry Belafomte!!! Jackie Burtnett Cumbie. God bless you!!!!
🎉
Rest In Peace ☮️ Mr. Belafonte. You had everything looks, talent, voice and empathy. Farewell Mr. Jamaica. The world will miss you.
Agreed, yes the world is missing you already… My Jamaican. You were whom the world needed and the Almighty gave us you for over 90 yrs.
Love you

The idol of my tenage years...could not see enough of him!!

Goodbye Mr. Belafonte. We will miss you forever.
