@Islesofhome I`m 42, live in Argentina, and hav e been a fan for the last 25, I couldn`t agree more with you. It just doesn`t really get much better tham Belafonte
@nightwave2002 please please let me know what dvd this is from.. i need to purchase this before 2012 end of the world lol.. seriously.. it's a MUST HAVE for me.. thank you thank you
I'm a Filipino. When Araneta Coliseum in Cubao opened in 1960, Harry Belafonte was the first performer. I watched him with my dear late father. I was 5 years old.
Had Relatives in the Film ~~ The Funeral Scene (2 of them) Them / The Market Square Scene ... & The Rabble Rouser in the Crowd Political Scene. - ALL Relatives ~~ People I know in the scene at The Santa Maria Hotel as well.
The Film was made PARTLY in Barbados but MOSTLY in GRENADA ... A Huge Modern Bank Now stands where the Murder was Carried out.
Been listening to Harry Belafonte since I was a young girl, and had the opportunity to see him in Toronto, I will never forget , I love his singing !!! and I have a lot of music by him.
I love, love this song. My father was Jamaican born and came to England 50 years ago. He sadly passed away two months ago, but when he was with us he would forever sing this song. He loved Jamaica with all his heart, although he lived more of his life here than in Jamaica. My greatest regret is not visiting his island of birth when he was alive. Daddy I will visit your 'island in the sun' very soon. RIP Daddy!!
Jamaica loves you - I sit here daily and love my island with your songs roaming in my head. I have loved you all my life and most enjoyed my father's stories about you and him and Jamaica.
@LubbiGunn I couldn´t agree more, I ´m 41, live in Argewntina, first heard Harry when I was 20, and regardless of ditance, time and style, this guy is fantastic, ageless and timeless.
Magnifique ! Que de souvenirs... depuis lors plus personne n'a composé ni chanté de si délicieux Calypso. Merci ! Et la meilleure version sur Youtube probablement.

A very special gentleman. No matter old or young, he has a voice that takes you to
the magic island in the sun. I've listened to him for over 40 years and he just keeps
getting better.
