[decapolis2008]

è incrivel poder ouvir musica de excelente qualidade, é ainda de um país bem menos visado, minha alegria e saber que irmãos africanos não devem nada a ninguém, tem musica melhor que muitos países, como o funk brasileiro por exemplo, sorte para vocês, já tem fãs aqui no Brasil - São Paulo, eu minha familia.

Deus Abençoe vocês.

[SierraElyse88]

@chottocigarillo Thank you for the share, very nice and cheerful song. And thanks the uploader for this posting.

[morry47]

Remember when you could watch a video without having to sit through a commercial?

Remember when music videos were uploaded by users and not VEVO

Remember when all the info was to the right of the video?

Remember you could rate a video 1-5 stars?

Remember the famous yellow subscribe button?

Remember when the users controlled the site and now corporations?

WE MISS THE OLD YOUTUBE!

Post this in every video and lets start a youtube revelution Thumbs up if you agree

[hazmat151]

@morry47 remember when firefox came out and eliminated ads? noob

[ErewhonSuper]

I don't believe it - there are 11 dislikes! How can anyone possibly dislike this. It makes no sense. They are so joyful.

[natemlr]

Nka ho rapela fela. Nka ho rapela that this vibration of healing and love will find it's way to America...re e hloka mo...in New Orleans re na le buntu and from here we can project it up the Mississippi and across THIS broken land...broken with greed and the relentless desire for money. Ke hopotse haholo South Africa. The sun is rising in the East, and it is Africa. Ntate modimo, re lebohile.

[Modipadi100]

@khotso08 Ho leboha rena ntate Khotso. Ka nnete ke nako!

[dineydreamer]

[xxxxexelxxxx]

Its sick... maybe they dont have fire in heart to love? Its sad, and makes me sad =(

Its fantastic song <3

[moffat0]

@xxxxexelxxxx they mised the like button :D

[dearsushi15]

it's trange, but her voice reminds me of sinead o'connor.

[jakieskropki]

On nokia's 'ovi store' song 'Fire Is Low' sounds totally different - why is that?



[burtonreed1968]

This video is a true reflection of what life is like in South Africa. We laugh, dance, sing and appreciate each other's differences. Freshlyground makes us proud to be South African

[joecossa]

they make me proud to be an Afrikan

[Byung7]

I Like the heck out of these guys, and i never heard of them till Waka Waka They are seriously good

[crazyhands1981]

where do i buy a cd? i live in the U.S. i keep looking on itunes. but i need a cd or something.

[beaner8990]

@crazyhands1981 they have a website i think where you can download each song for the same price as in itunes if im not mistaken

[bleepingman]

SHE'S AWESOMEAAAHHHHH!

[xxxxexelxxxx]

Only 0,81% of viewers clicked bad bottom! They thought there is dis-I-like bottom, and they was wrong! i think

[paketin333]

congratulations a im jorge ramirez froom guadalajara jalisco MEXICO sorry me inglish is small berye berye small i not speak inglis jajaja

[birdinthewind1]

i love the fusion of different types of music :) love this band :)

[lolitapink1985]

I still don't see how there's really cool new artists from africa like this band, akon , etc yet they picked shakira to interpret the world cup offical song. They should have picked an african artist or band to represent the entire continent. Now if the world cup had been hosted in south america then I wouldnt complain about shakira.

[Gami3it]

@lolitapink1985 for what its worth, waka waka was shakira ft freshly ground incase you didnt know. Woulda been better if it was freshly ground ft shakira but i guess shakira has more star power. Anyway, waka waka was the reason I heard of this band so i am grateful for that.

[SunniBerri]

I'm so glad I found this band, they make me feel peaceful < 3

[rmunozrod]

@SunniBerri yo soy meztizo nacido en Mexico, pero por mi sangre y mi alma soy africano...amo esta musica, amo a este grupo...al escucharlo algo me sucede que me hace muy feliz.... me siento muy bien. saludos.

[viwetafeni1]

Oops... For some strange reason I didn't see the other comments. Lol! Ah well.

[viwetafeni1]

Can't believe I'm the first to comment!!! OMG!!! lol!

Anyway, love you guys!! Anyone that has not been to a live show has to go before they die... Lol! Definitely on the top ten list of things to do before you die!! Whether they are live or you're listening to a cd, Freshlyground 'spirit' flows into you through your ears and into your soul!

I will be a Freshlyground fan even when the fire is out!

[tobagostyle]

Well... I went this summer to South Africa and I had the luck to discover you... In Italy nobody knows who you are... Unfortunately... :(

You are just amazing with a beautiful voice and a wonderful band... You guys are AWESOME....

[Smilegyrl222]

Usually black people and their different style of music just can't get into my mind nor playlist... But here and now is this golden moment that I discover myself adding this joyous song... I couldn't resist this cute voice of the leadsinger.

[Lyrosmos]

This is absolutlely amazing. Thanks to Fifas theme song waka waka i was introduced to this band. i really enjoy this and havent been able to stop listening to them for the last 3 days. . .cant wait to pick up an instrument again and start adding this type of music into my own!!! thanks for the inspiration!!!

[gypsy4ever888]

This song is one of the most moving performances I`ve ever heard. I am in complete love with this song. The video shows the true happy feelings of all band members. The lyrics are so real and true. The music makes me want to move. I want to hear this song over and over again. The clapping adds to the reality of the musicians and composers. I am in love.

[scullkollector930]

i have never seen two women more beautiful because of theIr talent and brains then these two ladies. here in america we are stuck on beauty due to outer exterior and impossible means of body image. nice to see there is still pure beauty in the world. I LOVE YOU FRESHLYGROUND!!!!!!! BE MY LOVE WHEN THE FIRE IS LOW!!!!

[clarker0828]

I am American but I just adore freshlyground! They are absolutley amazing and their songs have powerful lyrics. Fire is Low is my favorite song. :)

[Drop1862]

Eu sou brasileira (Brasil) e adorei!!!

[chadster201]

i am american as well but i love your music as much as i love my own. great stuff.

[softshells1]

wow, im such a fan, im sharing with all my friends your message of good feelings and that we are all the same, worldwide. ty freshlyground, you are a treat.

[Wharenpeace]

How can you not sing along? This is an awesome song.

[Sunnytrigger]

She has an amazing and very unique voice! I love her voice! Keep up the good work :) your an inspirational person

[kwelakwela1623]

When the fire is low <3

[kwelakwela1623]

Wooo I saw them live! :D She totally smiled and pointed at my friends and I ;)

[lindseyperrin]

I absolutely love this....

[TrinityisLife]

Oh, wow, I love all their faces light up when they're smiling in this video. A group of friends playing with their hearts and loving every minute of it. I wish there were more groups like this one.

[daracuteandkawaii]

i like her she mackes good music XD

[81amandawalker]

LOVE IT! Im American and I am always branching out, attempting to find beauty in the whole world. Thank goodness for youtube because in the states all we hear is the same stupid 25 pop/ Country songs over and over again. BLAH! Not all Americans are arrogant.

[HitsBeforetheRadio]

@81amandawalker YES! i thought i was the only one who was annoyed by all of this ridiculous, horrible-lyric pop music today. i really love freshlyground! it's nice to hear some good music for a change.

[Azizip17]

@HitsBeforetheRadio , I'm another American who LOVES this group. There a lot of "UnitedStaters" who know good music when we hear it.

I particularly love the lead singer's voice and the realness she projects. I also love the rest of that talented group. It's good to see an integreted group in South Africa. That gives me hope for the future worldwide.

-An African American sista

[TrinityisLife]

@81amandawalker Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm glad to see another American with an appreciation for things not as superficial as the norm in the States!

[chuckpalalay]

love their music... =)

[hockeystudd13]

It's really refreshing to hear something new. I'm in the US, and all the music seems to just blend together into a mainstream. It's like these guys just want to make music, not money. I love it, plain and simple.

[morry47]

@hockeystudd13 u are so right its nice to have something so fresh and good it really seems that they do it only because they love it and to share joy

[naomi13jf]

n this song reminds me of paul simon somehow.. nice :)

[Churros1616]

@naomi13jf yeah i feel you, but paul simon was highly inspired by south-african music for his album Graceland. He actually recorded most of the album in South Africa...

[naomi13jf]

sad how a lotta ppl r dissing americans for liking american music b4 others, n at t same time dissing others for liking american music b4 their own.. its just contradictory. n no, am not american.. proudly african without being judgemental. awsome song n glad others r discovering this group :) big up freshlyground!

[morry47]

@naomi13jf im actually jealous that ure african i honestly think that thats really cool

[TheElMuffin]

Isn't it surprising how surprised we are every time we find out that we all have so much in common? Beautiful sound, beautiful voice, beautiful band. Giggidy.

[aprond]

i want to go crazy of this song.... so damn damn good to listen everytime.... :))

[torathe1]

my nine-year old put it like this: "This is what a call music, mum. This is a real song". I have to agree with her :-)

[WrathchildPL]

2:34 cat on the wallpaper

[aaron5336]

love this song !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!whoooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooo!!!1

[ryanjmcgowan]

And for those self-righteous idiots that think Americans live in seclusion, lest I remind you that 4 of the top 10 selling singles in America were by foreign artists. Americans love variety. Just because we aren't EXPERTS on YOUR country doesn't mean we don't take interest. There's a lot of countries out there and music, too. If you're from Belgium, you probably know about as much about Zimbabwe as we do.

[ryanjmcgowan]

Score and lyrics by Paul Simon.

[mjLuspo]

synchronized claps...i love it.. <3 <3 <3

[morry47]

@mjLuspo totally cool

[randomactsofblonde]

This group makes me want to live in Africa (:

[Axmedkoole]

In the United States, the world is the United States, their own music, musicians, their own sports, the reason Americans are very little informed outside their premises. Blame it the media. How did I know this?. I lived in the United States since '95 and traveled every state and city, and the average American can't tell if Africa is a continent or a country.

[LifeWithEyesWideOpen]

@Axmedkoole I am American, and what you just said is true, a lot of people will try to disagree with you but I agree! I have been thinking the same way for years.

[morry47]

@Axmedkoole too sadly true

[tyreeas]

This is the coolest band EVER!

[staygoldorelse1]

I heard this on my local lite rock station

[morry47]

@staygoldorelse1 which?

[101ReptileFreak101]

i dislike the dislikers

[0t0ku]

Absolutely one of the best African bands out there!

[galianociti1]

music from the rainbow nation

[naliniim]

How can anyone dislike this song!?!?

[stylinteenz98]

just luv this song..... its so sweet & melodious

shes such an amazing singer.

[JRay908]

she just has such an amazing energy. you can tell how happy she is when shes singing and it makes me love her music even more :)

[frandal2008]

I had the fortune to know this band at national geographic music channel (nat geo music) for 19 months, their great hit - doo be doo (not the full video). Yes there another channels to see videos and listen the songs. There are music of many countries passing in this channel. Mostly world music style. If you want to know more cultures, listen these songs.

[askido351]

How about that Saxophone eh?

[Macuzak]

Will never forget driving back from a client site to our offices in PE and one of my colleagues, when Doo Be Doo came on the radio, commented how she went to school with the lead singer. Love their music, can't wait until its on Amazon so I can get a copy! Every time I hear them I feel as if I'm back home in PE next to the braai, with good friends and the smell and sizzle of boerewors on the fire. Aikona wena. You can take the girl out of Africa but Africa will always be in the girl.

[diih872]

aa eu assisto esse video diretoo

eh muito bom :)

[PrincessTsunade12]

she is so pretty when she smiles really big and happy C:

this a great song and video, im so glad I found her~

[shessme]

i love the atmosphere in this video

[wazabang]

Recall bumping into her in the music department back at uni Nelson Mandela Metropolitan Uni on her way to see the late Errol Cuddermby. She's such a humble person even before all the fame started.

[kittygurl212]

I love discovering new bands from other countries. Americans don't really feature them unless they come here first, collab with a known international artist that is famous in American, or have a song in a famous move. Or if they're Canadian. But I really like the optimism and music they portray, and the friendship between them. *off to download some Freshlyground music* :-)

[seedsisam]

The world is filled with great music, we just don't know it existed...

[luvableniki879]

Im in America and I love music and I wish they would over here would play music from other countries and this song is great!!!!

[nashamater21]

i agree with Lym0re, im south afican and i find our music amazing!!!!

[Mstwinkletoes18]

just watching their videos makes me miss SA even more! Amazing country, people, culture...im in love with your country x

[groMMit1981]

@Mstwinkletoes18 In cold UK atm and missing home so but good tunes like this warm my soul being South African and glad other cultures appreciate it also. Genuine music like this from real people real musicians is so rare and should be promoted over the commercial drivel out there these days.

[jaybell41]

she is an AMAZING singer!!!i wished they played this band on the radio here in America!!!

[justajumpingypsygirl]

I love how they just look like their fooling and joking around. I want to be in a band that just hangs out together like that :)

[kipjekim]

die negerin is echt iritant

[polkie45]

shes wearing a balintawak!!

[averywear]

they look they're having so much fun, and that really adds to my enjoyment of this song! :D

[TufiNiceBola]

Thank you! I enjoyed this very much. I would love to have this band play at my parties. Dancing at the end - so cool hehehe!

[loxymandles]

love the dancin at the end so so south african

[emicrombie]

they really need to put better music on the radio - like freshlyground!

[fcbmartinso]

99,13 % of people who watched it liked it! waw..this group is amazing

[rockinfish100]

I love it so much, it is so fun, the singer is adorable, and the entire band has such a good fun vibe that I cannot stop listening to it.

[jglass0731]

American here. I found this because a friend shared it on Facebook and I am happy to say I bought the album from FreshlyGround's site because I liked this so much.

[PirateBunnies15]

aha. look how chill they are. awesome! <3

[fuzzims11]

nice i love this song i lisen to it every day on the radio what is that poster in the back i can see a girl

[fuzzims11]

nice i love this song i lisen to it every day on the radio

[MsKaybeee]

She's got a unique voice......Nice track!

[grobiegirl12]

she's amazing and the scruffy blonde guitar player is cute :)

[KuduBal]

This chick has an amazing voice...! Proudly South African :-)

[sisteract06]

Very Nice song... Thumbs up!

[maurizio140161]

From Italy: great song, great sound, great band...and pretty girls..... :-)

[yuchubhu]

Catchy tune..you guys are talented..well done, stay focused, united and keep going..

[squidzillastine]

OK I LOVE IT NOW

[squidzillastine]

you know i never got to the end of this song but i'm making a commitment today to watch it all i like it so far be my love when the fire is low......

[vrhidi342]

I like all of their clothes

[dabullydog1]

i'm the same way as Lym0re but up in Canada. I didn't know about Freshly Ground until Waka Waka so I looked the band up on youtube and enjoyed there music ever since

[hellonaku]

loved their music... thanks to waka waka i found freshlyground.. ! :)

[lagritsalammas]

She looks like a goddess of some sorts in that dress of hers. And her voice and the soothing manner in which she sings... :)

[BabyGirlGoddess]

i started clapping along,lol.

[jazzcolabear]

She's so cute and pretty, such a unique voice too. =]

[Miaumiauize]

nice:D

[1IggI1]

WOW WHAT A SONG HEY, HEARD IT FOR THE ACCOUSTIC VERSION OF THIS SONG FOR THE "FIRST" TIME THIS MORNING ON SOME BREAKFAST SHOW ON SABC3, GAWSH ZOLANI, WHAT PASSION SHE'S GOT, AND WOW SHE CAN REALY CONNECT WITH AN AUDIENCE, DOWN TO EARTH SMILE, WOW AND NOW I JUST WATCHED THIS VID, GAWSH *nearly in tears* WOW I DIGG THE CONNEXION IN THE BAND..

[helenairibeiro]

so sweet so cute i love it!

[JacesJerc]

This band is one of the reasons I'm ashamed of being South African. They suck bigtime. Their the reason I hate the song Waka Waka (never listened to the song either), but I love Shakira because she's not from South Africa. And no I didn't watch the video. Britney Spears is a thousand times better. Totsiens.

[Makxam]

@JacesJerc How can you hate a music you never heard?!?!?!?

Strange??? hehe

[maroza07]

@JacesJerc seems like u have forgotten were you come from
