  • Sublime!!!!!!!

  • Eternal !

  • THE BEST SONG -thank you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • My son was also born in 88. What a great and wonderful year !

  • My son was born in 88 ....2 greqt things in one year..

  • I'm African, I live in the UK and I'm white. When I tell people I'm south African they ask why aren't you black. It is quote racist really and I don't know how to answer so I get annoyed. I'm for south Africa and im white... Deal with it!

  • @CharlotteQV People think in colors my friend

  • the west is being destroyed by mass immigration from africa and elsewhere and europeans make mandela and mlk into there new gods.

  • The best ever

  • Fan-tas-tic!!!!  :D LOL

  • My head is bloody, but unbowed./Beyond this place of wrath and tears/Looms but the Horror of the shade,/And yet the menace of the years/Finds, and shall find, me unafraid./It matters not how strait the gate,/How charged with punishments the scroll./I am the master of my fate:/I am the captain of my soul.

  • Out of the night that covers me/Black as the Pit from pole to pole/I thank whatever gods may be/For my unconquerable soul./In the fell clutch of circumstance/I have not winced nor cried aloud./Under the bludgeonings of chance

  • A man that was robbed 27 years of his life, then was relesed, rose to power and still had the TREMENDOUS Innerstrenght to forgieve! Mandela already is immortal!

  • A truly genuine artist, heart on his sleeve, and a great integrity to his music, keep singing Jim....

  • verdammt des lied is so der hammer des gibts nicht eyyy..... simple minds forever

  • It disturbs me deeply to see so much ignorance about South Africa and who stole what. I hope one day the truth will be known, but as history is re-written time is fading fast. If anyone cares to do the slightest ounce of research they will see that although there may be some claim to land ownership of white owned land by the blacks, for the most part the land was either bare from the difaqane or was willingly signed over. The thievery is just about to happen guys, and who do we thank?

  • Why someone dislikes this?

  • VIVA MANDELA and Simple Minds too

  • May be just me but Simple Minds just produce classic after classic, this pivotal song being amongst many great songs they have produced - long may it continue...!

  • what a song, love Nelson mandela

  • Great LP "street fighting years", great lyrics

  • @Atlantikonrad yes their last really good album

  • Nelson Mandela 4ever

  • Mandela and Gandhi are the saviours of humanity.

    There won't be any other!

    VIVA Mandela! :)

  • A great song, probably their best, and a rarity, a tribute song that os not cloying, crass and disposable.

  • Happy 93rd birthday, Mr. Mandela!

  • Happy 93rd Nelson Mandela !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This was released on the B-side?

    Crikey, even the B-sides of the 80s are better than the homogenous crap they throw at us today.

  • One of my favorite tunes by Simple minds,paying tribute to one of humanities greatest Human being,Actually Mr. Nelson Mandela is more like a god than a human being...PEACE&GREAT RESPECT to a GOD Mr. NELSON MANDELA!!!!!!!!

  • mandela is hero

  • This song could unite all the World and kick start  global trip to go into space.

  • mandela é um exemplo de guerreiro

  • DEUS salve Nelson Mandella

  • noble thing to write this song,,,bravo....

  • mandela day een geweldig nummer!

  • i hope Nelson is doin' alright.

  • WOW i love this song so much!!! and noone else could of sang this better than simple minds just look at the crouds they love them and most of all what makes it so good is you can tell they love perfoming to everyone everywhere they go,

  • There have been many so-called freedom fighters, fighting for peace through out history but I can only think of one who truly deserve the title.

  • bellissima !!

  • Mandela is a human example.... so keep on fighting for our own rights, whatever happens!

  • What a voice ....

  • Unforgivable and so typical: Nelson Mandela was in the US list of terrorists until the 80s!!!

  • Shame also on the ongoing Apartheid in Israel/Palestine. Long live South Africa, a country that proved that the "impossible" may become possible. Some ppl, with a view that blacks were inferior and unmanageable in a country ruled by a black majority predicted that South Africa would become a hell after Apartheid. Despite the problems, look overall at what this country has achieved under the multiracial regime, where whites are also invited to actively participate. Nkosi Sikelel iAfrika!

  • lÒl_I_féèl_so_lÒÑÉly_tÒÐAý

  • this song makes you think about what it really means freedoms and happiness,as you have to take life,always cheerful and full of life.........

    and above all free

  • sì bella canzone

  • when i listen to this song im thinking about my daddy... he died 4th november i 13 y.o now he was 39 y.o i always miss him :(

  • I was there...............

  • " Mandela Day ", je kiffe grave ce son du groupe Simple Minds.

    Je ne sais pas si ça vs es déjà arrivé d'écouter un son et en mm temps de plonger dans votre enfance en Afrique ou ailleur biensûr, d'où vs venez!!! Et bien moi, c'est ce qui m'arrive en écoutant cette chanson, je revis mon passé.

  • i remember seeing the Mandela concert on tv, was not a big fan of the band but a year later i was, it was a big day at wembley, it was Mandela Day!

  • l love this song

  • Cela aurait pu être aussi une chanson pour "Jésus", et Jésus est présent en chacun de nous, en tous ceux qui rejètent la haine...

  • @MrViccipri CE N'EST PAS POUR TA JESUS

  • Deux mots pour cette chanson: "Force et pureté", jamais une chanson n'a poussé si haut la puissance de l'amour pure, non la triste mais celle plein de joies, d'optimisme et de force...

  • Há 12 anos Mandela assumia a presidência da África do Sul, um dia para se curtir!

  • yeah tanks mandela, in 50 years of aparteid, few dozen killed by racist policy, in few ears after THOUSANDS OF WHITE FARMERS AS BEEN MASSACRED by "colored", you NEED TO HAVE A SIMPLE MIND TO HAIL MANDELA......

  • Say the children the story of that man !!!!

  • @thierry62 say to the children the story ot this man who killed children.

  • super! é sempre una emozione ascoltare questa canzone!

  • great!!!

  • MITICI SIMPLE GRANDIIIIIIII!!!!

  • In Australia, people commonly spend much less time in jail for committing murder than Mandela spent in jail for committing himself to humanity.

    What a fucked up world. I agree. Respect.

  • Nelson Mandela is 92. Respect !

    He's by far one of the greatest men in the world.

    The solo reminds me of someone in distress.

    Africa is crying and this song makes me want to shed tears.

    Thank you Simple Minds for this tribute.

    Shame to racism and long life to Nelson Mandela.

  • @Gr8testMuzic shame on blind antiracist scum, mandela let thousands white famers killed, have you ever listen this? sure not, propaganda just look at the "poor negro"

  • @mattvlad3 Many white people and black people were killed. It's like if your were saying Mandela is completely wrong or the main guilty. Do you think he had the choice? Mandela fought against apartheid and lead an entend(policy) between black and white people.

    I didn't insult you, so don't call me"antiracist scum".

  • @Gr8testMuzic apartheid mean separation, was not so terrible. and yes was racist, races exist and so racism, and whites are the only able to manage good society (and asians), the country was safty and wealty, the major problem was the international embargo on s.a., negroes are more brutal and more racists than whites, and mandela do nothing, the goverment let free elections, that's all. not a hero, was made an hero, like for gandhi. endorse mandela is an offense to human intelligence

  • Comment removed

  • @mattvlad3

    You are right , but not many people knows facts about Mandela

  • @Gr8testMuzic Was Mr Mandela not part of an illegal organisation just like the IRA or al qaeda, and was also responsible for hundreds of innocents peoples deaths and thus was jailed for this...why exactly is he such a great man guys ???

  • Comment removed

  • @doctordolittle It's so sad and disturbing to see so much ignorance

  • @doctordolittle you suck man

  • it was not to doctordolittle but to Gr8testMuzic

  • Guys you all have great things to say about Mr.Mandela, so as a mark of respect please make sure you dont buy S.African Diamonds , which people are enslaved and beaten to produce, Mr Mandela fought for freedon on these kind of issues, so with that said lets see how many people really believe in Mandela's teachings ......lets see all your morals now that you cant buy your partners diamonds that big big diamond.......I bet you a ton of money morals will begin to slip away quiet quickly.....

  • GOD BLESS NELSON MANDELA PLEASE LIVE FOREVER M8 COS THE WORLD CAN LEARN SO MUCH FROM U
