Everyone loves "Yellow Bird" not knowing the origins of this popular song made famous by Harry Belafonte after being translated. The original song is called "Choucoune" by Oswald Durand in 1883 in HAITI, Yes Haiti.This song is so old there way before the calypso craze of the 50's. Give us credit, jus as you have never done for us being the 1st New World settlement by Columbus who still has a fortress there, the 2nd republic in the Hemisphere after the only successful slave rebellion in history,
Which resulted in the Louisiana Purchase doubling the U.S.,Supplying arms and even men to aid in Bolivar's Revolutions in SouthAmerica, and even the battle against the British in American Independence 1779 "Seige of Savannah" in Georgia, or having the largest fortress ever built in this Hemisphere "La Citadelle LaFerriere" Give us credit for the song at least DAMN!!
