Miriam Makeba 2007

[Andy33615]

Wow - while this performance she was 75.

At the age of 76 she died on Stage - what a life!

I wonder, how many times she had to sing THIS song,

R.I.P. Mama Africa!

[bvscfanatic]

Had Miriam Makeba never lived, I believe we'd have sensed the void. I believe we'd have noticed something missing from the world. Her absence would not have gone undetected. So powerful a force was she.

[canigasibal]

AMIGOS..HUGE MASEKELA Y LA CANTANTE LIRA LA RECORDARON EN EL MUNDIAL, INTERPRETANDO SU EXITO PATA PATA...EXELENTE POR CIERTO!!

[jbmourabenedito]

Miriam Makeba esteve no Brasil nos anos 60, cantou a musica desua terra e como ninguem cantou musicas de Jorge Ben Jor e aprendeu a adorar o Brasil, uma guerreira que lutou praticamente sozinha na época contra o racismo, dona de uma inteligencia incomparavel e de um dom de caridade

Saudades

[assia1991able]

I love that song!

[hypnosathenae]

one of my life's regrets will always be not having a chance to see her perform :(

Sensacional,

Mirian Makeba, mostrando o valor da musica africana para o mundo.

Aqui no Brasil valorizamos muito as musicas com ritmos marcados pelos atabaques , e a maravilhosa percurssão dos ritmos negros.

Maravilha, maravilha ...

[douglakl]

Hi leadaudt,

Can you please upload the Ingwe Mabala from this same concert? It's sung by Zenzi Lee, one of her daughters I think and it's so beautiful! I was surprised it wasn't on youtube already! Please, and thank you!

[Xystryl]

Thank you Mama Africa that I could listen to you at your very last concert..

We will never forget vou:)

[mbraskute]

what a deep soul MAMA! Mama Africa...

[brandondallas]

I wished she was my Mother.

[jermippolito]

Rest In Peace Mama Afrika!

Miss you!!!

The Mama Diva of Afrika!!

[TheWhiteKnight3]

God bless her

[lesson34]

who is your God?

The name?

God and Lord are titles, whats the name your God! mine is Yeshua

[acdcfreakNr1]

how old is she?

[mirnahermans]

during this performance she must have been 75 years old. she died last year in november at the age of 76

[Azorka82]

Denia0903...might there have been political tension as a result, increasing the stress of performing publicly? I've wondered ever since reading of her death being due to a heart attack during or just after her last concert.

[fabriziogianncola]

Gomorra speaks about the Camorra from Naples - Campania and not Calabria

[florel1962]

dama maravillosa,

[KILLNIGHTANIME]

pata pata RULES !

[pamara87]

She was a legend - her singing career lasted right to the very end, she should never be forgotten.

[brandondallas]

Amen to that. I will certainly have a very special place in my heart for this lovely woman. I watch the movie "Sarafina" at least 3 times a month and I watch the video of her singing Soweto Blues at least once a day. I love Mama Africa.

[dadix255]

True, she died few hours after her last concert... Too bad...

[artesur]

Gracias Mamá Africa....y buen viaje de retorno a la Madre Tierra.

[Ilpendam123]

Good music nice

[schoeni199]

RIP Miram Makeba

Nobody will forget you!!!

[zimempress]

timeless classic

[DANCE101aus]

Absolutely beautiful woman

Hey does anyone know where I can get a copy of the up beat version of Pata pata

Paul

[JanboJay]

There's a great album called PATA PATA, it is quite old but I got a copy a couple of years ago, I ordered it from a local independant record store.

It was well worth the money cos there was alot of great other material on there too.

[brandondallas]

Soweto Blues is Awesome too.

[JanboJay]

I know, it' s mind blowing isn't it.

I just cry myself to sleep every night at the situation in Zimbabwe, I do believe in God but think he must be on holiday right now, al I can say is God bless you all and may life shine on us all all one day.

Janbojay-x-

[brandondallas]

Thank you love. Peace from Dallas, TX.

[gustavoriezu]

She is great! She shines.... It would be great to have a conversation with her...

[schoeni199]

she is dead

[gustavoriezu]

She's forever, my friend

[tentealla]

JAMAZ TE OLVIDAREEEE

[Cydoli]

[risingsunfoundation]

Thanks Mama Africa!!!!!!!!

[rogertsi]

Muito show eternamente Miriam Makeba q pena que não está mais nesse mundo, mas sua simpatia ficará pra sempre na nossa memória.

[musainterior]

Grande Senhora!! Quando deixará de encantar esta música?!

[rabba54321]

It brought me to tears to find out that she passed away...the 1966 footage reminds me of my sister.she gives this look that would make you question yourself no matter how right you were...... rest in peace mother africa

[RositaTierna]

Impresiona ver en un antes y un después, como brillaba en los escenarios. ¡Dios la bendijo enormemente!

[ybmarc93]

is this avo session basel?

[Kbonie]

I notice as well that depending on the publication (e.g. Time Magazine) also made no mention of her passing.

[Azorka82]

I wonder if it's political; hope not. RIP Freddie Hubbard.

[Azorka82]

Just searched "Miriam Makeba Time" and it looks like it was in their on-line edition. Miriam Makeba is featured #24 of 45 of the Time Magazine 2008 Person of the Year. Wonder what USA Today's problem is. They published a letter today about Eartha Kitt but not Miriam Makeba. The letter I submitted was brief enough, under 200 words, and they published one of mine about seven or eight years ago so it should be acceptable.

[xmurli]

Do not trust the media. They do not report news. They just report whatever suits their ideology (agenda).

They should be denied business license to publish.

[xmurli]

my humble opinion.

[gisiflenni]

love you mama afrika... ♥

[jbreezyRulez]

This performance makes me smile, I miss her, R.I.P. Mama Africa!

[Azorka82]

Very disappointed to see USA Today gave no mention of Miriam Makeba in its article 'Passages' (Fri/Sat/Sun edition; 12/26-28/2008). The article lists many famous people that passed in 2008. I will write a letter questioning why no mention was given.

[xbelitaa]

Mama Africa ♥

[kimmickal]

I look forward to seeing her in Heaven.

[brucesinner]

you want to die ???

[kimmickal]

brucesinnner,

Not until it's my time to go which won't be for a while, obviously.

[bloomchrisla]

The young drummer reminds us of the future of your music. Rest in peace, Mama Afrika...your heritage will remain with us. I miss you. Chris

[LifeLightStation]

Pata in Egyptian means Light.

[Grantahur]

Miriam siempre vivirá en el corazón de todos¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

[bigjoestatus]

i luv miriam mind telling me what pata mean

[HayLzeee]

Pata means touch

[Myriampimpoyo]

esta es una o fue una gran cantante presiosa cancion ya la puse como una de mis favorita.

[stefyciente]

conoscevo molto poco questa grande artista,ma sapevo che era e rimane una delle più grandi donne del mondo.ha portato avanti con onore ed orgoglio le battaglie contro il razzismo e spero che sempre più persone seguano le sue orme per sconfiggere questo male aberrante che ancora oggi colpisce la società.

CIAO MIRIAM!

[Merdallica]

Concordo!

[AdigeElif]

I didn´t know this georgeous lady until now, thanks for updating

[jmabreu1955]

Tudo o que se possa dizer de " Miriam Makeba"

é expressar o GRANDIOSO o " LEGADO " tanto na musica, a grandiosidade como pessoa, a luta pelo racismo.

Que mais podemos pedir a uma pessoa que lutou por tudo e nos deixou.

[adarene10]

MAMA AFRIKA...a true legend....in voice and in deed....GOD rest your soul

[leftysergeant]

Every person who has lived has wanted to leave some mark behind. This grand lady has done that and more. Seldom is there such a great presence in music or political activism. Few people ever make such a difference in the world.

[77raru77]

Ci hai insegnato tanto,mi scendono le lacrime...riposa in pace Mama Africa

[79valerino79]

se alcuni di noi hanno una coscenza migliore e occhi aperti per distinguere il bene dal male,il giusto dello sbagliato lo dobbiamo a persone come te che hanno lottato per ridare dignità alle persone alle quali era stata tolta...come dicevi te:anche 10 su 1000 ma sarà sempre un grande risultato.grazie Mama Africa il tuo esempio non andrà perso!

[desueto72]

[ElPrincipe202]

Soy un joven de 24 años pero le doy gracias a Dios por la vida de Miriam que supo difundir con su canto la igualdad entre todos los seres humanos y busco en todo momento un respeto hacia todos por lo que son y no por lo que tienen, que descanse en paz junto a Dios!!! Joel Yanez

[covecua]

No hay palabras que puedan demostrar el agradecimiento que le debe la humanidad para tan importante personaje, importante fue su carrera como artista pero mucho mas tracendental lo fue su voz, voz que no solo sirvio para deleitarnos con tan maravillosa melodia sino, para dibulgar a vivo llanto el clamor de un pueblo que vive y que sufre y que, a la final todos en el mundo hacemos parte de el, paz en su tumba . Q.E.P.D
