Amazing artist, amazing song. It's even more amazing live! So much power, so much energy when everyone is singing all at once. Had the chance to meet him last night!

[jdpigeon]

I just saw him sing this song today with nothing but an acoustic guitar and his voice, it was extremely powerful. He's such a down to earth

[JohnsonBoys123]

@jdpigeon i saw him too!! he performed this song live at UBC! AMAZING.

[prads5000]

Love this!

[namk2008]

I absolutely love this song = A++++++++

[LynD11]

Gorgeous, but such a sad story too. It made me cry but I guess it had the power it's meant to then

"Damn you shooter, damn you the building, damn you the country so good at killing"

Very true. Let's hope we can all work towards making the senseless killing end

[VivaSomalia1]

Hey if your K'naan's fan VOTE 4 him @ P.square is winning rite now so VOTE 4 K'naan bet.com/nominees/category/best­-international-actBET awards

he deserves to win!!!

[roshdunmar123]

This is the first artist who got my vote as a fan. I listen to so much music and I never placed myself as a fan. I totally love your music. Keep doing what you doing. You should do mini movies for your videos. You already impact us so much. God bless you. God bless Somalia. He is looking let's not forget that.

[roshdunmar123]

Knaan your music bring such love to my heart. It really shows what love is as we never forget the one's who have left us for whatever reason. I am Hindu and I enjoy your music. I enjoy so much that I do not feel anger from the one's talking crap about your music. I just feel love. Thank you for that. Keep doing what you doing. We love your music and we need it. Do not bother with the haters. Your fans matter.

[roshdunmar123]

Gideon Morrison you are heartless. Knaan does not need people like you thrashing his music. Before you talk about others learn about your own first. I won't say what I really want too but if you got any sense you will read between the lines and figure it out yourself. So let's see how smart you really are. Knaan you keep giving us this beautiful music.

[roshdunmar123]

I totally love this video. Only people with a heart and soul can feel his music. I only learnt of Knaan's music after the World Cup. Since then I bought the last cd left at Best Buy. This guy is phenomenal. This is a beautiful song. It made me cry. I felt really touched. I apologize for those who don't see things this way and make the racial and dis-tasteful comments. Knaan you have touched the hearts of many and that's all that matters. My 14 year old daughter listens to your music. Thank you.

[gameond]

such feelings in a single song,Knaan has some excellent talents

May god bless him

[gideonMorrison]

still a muslim. next.

[germanid]

@gideonMorrison whats wrong if he's a muslim???

[gideonMorrison]

@germanid muslims are wrong overall. shame, he's a good singer.

[germanid]

@gideonMorrison how?? 

[gideonMorrison]

@germanid go cry about it man. facts are facts, can't fight them.

[germanid]

@gideonMorrison what facts??? r u retarded?? and who r u to judge if a religion is cunt or not?? are u god i dont think so

[gideonMorrison]

@germanid religion = believing = no facts. no scientific facts = trash. learn to write english and keep islam out of europe. go back to your 'holy land' or do whatever else. religion = pollution of the mind. 

[igotalovestoned]

[dut15x]

This song is awesome

[selfhoodsoul]

i cried first few times i hear this song, he says she died then he's like i don't want you to shed a tear. Not to criticise K'naan but it was a bit late

[JW222000]

I thought she became a child soldier

[selfhoodsoul]

not sure whether she died back then but he said in the follow up vid that he couldn't send her the song and that her memory was within him, i took that to mean she had died

[JW222000]

yeah i read over the lyrics a few times. the end verse makes me think that maybe she died.

whats the follow up vid?

[selfhoodsoul]

check out his live set from the apple store in san francisco, its in there

[JW222000]

[TheModic]

[sumayiya]

@Caree839 

[jislboy]

Fatima az-Zahra' was one of the three daughters of the Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h) . The Prophet commended Fatimas character, once saying to her, "Thou art the highest of the women of the people of Paradise, excepting only the Virgin Mary (Jesus's mother, p.b.u.him & her).
