Man I love YouTube! That was just pure perfection! Thanks for posting!

[hfvgnfhfh]

That video was beautiful! It portrayed to me like a gettin wit the fellaz for a freestyle session! She ripped it lol! I love it! 5stars!

[paganmaestro]

Good piece. I do wish you'd take that 'journeyman tv' logo off after ten seconds. It is annoying, and limits the impact of the video imagery.

[honestfight]

this time there was no melodyne nor autotune, i'm just so amazed how she hammered every note rightly.

[drbalalajka]

Her looks got better with age but perhaps not her voice.

My first memory of Miriam Makeba is in my alcove in my bedroom as a child listening to my mom's albums and I don't remember the title but she and her music touched me. I never forgot her or will ever. God bless her family and legacy.

So sad she is gone now. Such a beautiful voice. Something thats reminds me of living in Africa as a young girl and brings back happy memories. Thank you for those memories and Rest in Peace.....
