"Stand by Me" sung by Muhammad Ali

[Metatarsal]

A fighter & singer..

[ghostface2356]

THIS IS WHY THIS MAN IS MY HERO!!!!!!!!

[cher1maya]

this really should be re released as a tribute to the man but also to give some of those who still stand by him a new lease of the great memories we have

[karisnana]

i surely didnt and shock he did a good job too

[vidbyvid]

I Swear To GOD!

Hes THE BIGGEST inspiration EVER.

[PerajEbay]

The Champion of all hampions:

Ali!

[RNOB]

And Justin Bieber is a star, I don't get it!!!

[crysty200718]

I didn't dare to think that he could possibly sing so good.

[ooops1234]

Somethings in the world only happened once. And Muhammad Ali is one of them. My real Superman. I love you Muhammad Ali. Not I worlds' every sensible person loves you. And the coming generations will love you till the judgement day.

[fantorjhs]

Wow it is the very first time I hear this version of that song and Ali singing, HE IS GOOD, as good as in boxing. GREAT. I really like it.

[MrJMontrose]

My alltime favourite sportsman - bar no one. God bless you Ali

[whsonic]

to be correct, at that time he was called Cassius Clay.

[hbk711x]

@whsonic

HE hates that name, he calls it his slave name, and he renamed himself based on his faith, then he changed it again after changed his faith the second time.

Oh and he was Nation of Islam when he sang it but he wasn't open about it yet.

[magnumXll]

@whsonic SHUT UP fritzel

[tivuino7]

He is the strongest, the fastest, the most intelligent...HE IS THE OSOBUCO!

[dakotajoman]

Respect......I love you Champ.

[Cappacino1000]

wow,i just discoverd this. tears of joy here peoples.

[Jamietheboi91]

My favourite version! He sung this beautifully.

[majadahonda]

is this on record anywhere? I mean CD, or whatever format is being used now.

[harfuch1]

This was the only version we knew in Mexico City back in the 60's.

It was a great version, now I compare this version even with the original,

nothing but this one of Cassius Clay. (he become Muhammed Ali) after this song.

[allmightymouse]

i have this song on my mp3 player. there's just something about it that i like better than the original.. it's the CHAMP!

[dieunous]

Didn't know Muhammad Ali could sing? He sounds just as good as any other singer.

[lucasla0206]

Very good version!

[Superman4ever]

OMG! This is such a pleasant surprise. Quite amazing! 

[shamwowftl]

How can people think he's a bad singer,I think did this better than John Lennon.

[shamwowftl]

can you loop this song for 10 minutes and repost?

[ph1484]

He sings like shit (and he's the first to admit that) but I do hear some potential there. Anyone agree?

Smokin' Joe was just plain delusional about his singing. Ernie Terrell could sing though.

[nobovrilformethanks]

@ph1484

i thought joe frazier sang pretty well from the clip i saw in "when we were kings" (it was either that or another ali documentary i saw)

[kingofchelt]

nice effort but he definately should stick to boxing for a living.

[bella3341]

Who could it be" GREATEST HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMP IN HISTORY" that was so tough in the ring and at the same time sang with pure soul to make this version the best one of all?.......................... ALI THE BLACK SUPERMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Hayashirice911]

I find this song kind of ironic sung by Ali cause not many people stood by him....mostly because he knocked them out lol

[Purushadasa]

I never knew that he ever recorded any songs! This is awesome!

Did he record any others?

[gomezkenneth92]

im brown n i LOVE ali

[mrmakemaday]

SHAME HE WAS NOT ,W,H,I,T,E.

[therockana]

think adding more photos will make it more interesting.... nice song... Ali realy is a legend....!!

[burnley5960]

God god he can sing as well great voice the greatest of them all

[reznick8]

beautiful song

[genericgeorge]

not bad

[heempaw2]

Boxing legend.

[Dcmyname]

DANM Muhammad Ali can fight and sing 

[Twed94]

He can box better than all of those before him, he can sing better than Beyonce and can dance better than Elvis & Michael Jackson, he must be 'the greatest' ?

[ldjmcc]

@Twed94 He can not dance better than Elvis & Michael Jackson. And he may be able to sing better than Beyonce, but Michael Jackson, Elvis and The Beatles are far better singers. In boxing terms alone, he is the greatest.

[MrJONGERMAN]

I am so glad that I witnessed the greatest in my lifetime as there could`ve only been one. MUHAMMAD ALI WILL ALWAYS LIVE.

[villarinsfran]

wowowowowow!! increible!!

[eljefe90]

He is a machine, he is a poetic, he fought racism and in his side of life he always won

[plsegott]

holy.. i never knew that Muhamed ali was a siner :o cool :P

[eljefe90]

@plsegott singer :D

[Boelly92]

sounds pretty good though i didnt thougt he would sing that well lol he truly is the greatest, got the looks got the voice got the arrogance and can fight what else u need?

[nnaattsss]

[chechego]

[yolo1998]

[wookie72]

Okay, so he wasn't the greatest at *everything*.

[sabeeh89]

Kind of ironic he sang this song when much of the nation would desert him just an year later.

[rudey38]

what about sugar ray robinson

[levizer]

Ernie Terell and Joe Frazier also tried this! But they couldn't sing nor fight like Ali!

[POTATER1228]

we all knew he could dance, but who knew he could sing?

[UNKNOWEN786]

where can i get this in mp3 ?????

lol

[djuuwi]

On top of being the greatest boxer, and a great personality, he also sings! What a man!

[AndrewBrookes1995]

muhammad ali is a legend

[marcomarino2002]

Muhhamad Ali , Pele , and Beatles , never more on this millenium . Is my opinium .

[acerolafavela]

Respect Muhammad Ali

[Imiplacurveleproaste]

The greatest boxer that ever walked this Earth!! there will never be a second Ali .....RESPECT FROM ROMANIA

[cadets64]

He is a Muslim, He is black, He is a boxer, He is brave, He is fast, He is Pretty, He is funny, He is poet , He is a singer, He is a physiological warfare, He Must be the Greatest of All times

[therockswanakabrad]

@cadets64 dude that should go on a poser

[rolldoggg23]

@cadets64

yep the legend and will be for ever !

[hbk711x]

@cadets64

He was also a civil rights leader with his friend Malcolm X and they both left teh Nation of Islam.

[vaughan4082]

@cadets64 if he was only christian

[PhotosByHamza]

@vaughan4082 : You're an idiot! LMAO

Religion doesn't change weather a man is a good man or not.

Retard!

[hbk711x]

@PhotosByHamza

It depends, billions of people have changed because they apply faith, others don't care for it, some only care for it, depends on the person, but outwardly you can tell a good person by his manners and religion may or may not take effect ont that person, like some people became more humble because of faith, some just don't understand it. Depends.

[PhotosByHamza]

@hbk711x : DO NOT change the meaning of my message!!!

A 'Good Man' is a good man weather he is a Muslim, Jew, Christian, Budist, or Athiest.

A 'Bad Man' is a bad man weather he is a Muslim, Jew, Christian, Budist, or Ahtiest.

If you believe someone is 'Good' or 'Bad' based on their religion, then there is no hope for logical conversation or debate with you...

[juliochiquini]

@cadets64 no men the greatest heavyweigiht yes, but  pound 4 pound is sugar RAY ROBINSON and muhamed know it i know it & everyboby knows it.

[cadets64]

@juliochiquini sugar RAY was a great boxer too

[Cjlewis1000]

Wow Now i can actrully be motivated when im jogging by ali's voice wooo love this song

[englishsandy]

Surely the greatset boxer we have had;not a bad snger either.Lovely sound to his voice.

[SpikroddNG]

damn! I am really, really surprised! I clicked a link expecting a butchered version of the song... but hearing this, I say he could legitimately have been a singer.

[Metatarsal]

Top Song & Sung By A Top Man......

[haris000000]

[alvinbrowncp]

The Greatest

[KBDB91]

everyone should look up tp muhammad ali

[XjugglingX]

ali the greatest of all time, hi was a wonderful man and now his dying in parkinsson when ur dead R.I.P

[kiddyflo]

the thing is his glory came wit a price....i feel sorry for him..

[sabronn]

You shouldn't feel sorry for him, in an interview he was asked if he feels grateful for the honor and fame he has enjoyed, and he responded, with the difficulty due to his Parkinson: "Yes, five times a day"(refering to his 5 daily prayers to Allah). This earth is only part of our trip, the next and most important step is still to come.

[johnnyphotos]

Wonderful words.

[nico44ever]

Who would win in a fight Apollo Creed or Muhammad Ali?

[benmasterflex55]

depends if the fight were held in fictionland or on earth

[powpanda]

@benmasterflex55 Ali would win both, but in fictionland it might go for more than 1 round

[MynamesTatertot]

u kno, apollo is a reflection of Ali becuz look at the movie like the Thrilla in Manilla fight.

[ghazalipharma]

the great muhammed ali

[dcsk8a955]

Muhammad Ali,three time champ of the world.boxed like a champ.song like a champ.

[zBloodD3monz]

He's a man of many talents.

[timhankin]

[SoSupaStarry]

Ali was not playin! lol i was surprised when i first heard he had an album

[007rocksalotmann]

WOW.  Muhammad sang very well too! GREAT MAN

LOVE YOU, CHAMP!

[x0xprinc3zzx0x]

im sure he just wrote it!!

[hina12345]

love the song but he hasn;t got the best voice

[123torrent]

Wow, he pulled it off pretty good.

[Zaharahmuslimah]

Ben. E kings versions da best. lol wikid song man....

[MrNirvana1996]

Good cover... I still like John Lennons the most.

[sinagoal]

so did he sing this song or just write it?

[msm2you]

he just sang it. Athletes making albums was pretty much the norm back in the day.

[mapscannotcontainme]

The song was written by Ben. E. King and it has to be one of the most covered songs of the last 50 years and personally it's one of my favorite songs.

It's simple but beautiful melody and lyrics...a lot of great artists have done it justice and Ali surprisingly does an amazing job with it, here.

[smileyfreak24]

muhammad ali the best boxer ever no boby is ever gonna be as great as him

[kindmanjoe]

[Alfrunk]

[FATWONTON]

[mullacolon]

I was a muslim little boy living in OVERSESS ,AND I REMEMBER WE DID NOT HAVE TV so at our home,and ALIs FIGHTS WERE PLAYED ON A SMALL RADIO AT MY HOME,WE ALL SAT BY THE RADIO AT 4:00 AM TO HEAR ALI PUT UP THE BEST FIGHT EACH TIME WHILE MY DAD WAS PRAYING (MUSLIM WAY) FOR ALI TO WIN.MEMORIES ARE ALL WE HAVE TO LIVE WITH.

[Minkelu]

Thank you for putting this up. I grew up with this version not Ben E. King. My mom had the record, so it  brings back memories

[l3loodfist]

[Asif30]

Its better than the orginal

[bewaremylove]

I called you The Greatest way back before anybody did and I will always love you!

[magictrey]

i thought he named himself that lol???

[bewaremylove]

No, I think I was first to name him that. ha ha ha ha Seriously, I meant as an 'early on' fan. I told my brother & friends WAY BACK about him.

[magictrey]

Dam U answered quick lol, Hmmm i dont know lol

[bewaremylove]

I did my Ali Shuffle for your comment.

[tsntana]

I remember the first time I heard this was on a BBC radio show on Shortwave. It was a show about popular celebrities (not necessarily professional singers) singing popular songs.

IIRC, the announcer said about Ali, "he actually did a decent job with that" or something along those lines. You should've heard the other singers featured. At best, they were tolerable. At worst, they were terrible. William Shatner was among them, of course. :)

[smallchilly786]

how can i get this song in a mp3 file i try limewire already i really want this song

[jamesnintendo]

he is good singer as boxer

[smallchilly786]
