What a sentimental piece! Looking back to the first songs I ever learned this one prominantly stands out as a kind of joyful epiphany in my experience of music. This is I think the first song I ever loved.

Great artist, I grew up listening to his music. How wonderful would it be if ther were more live (in picture too) videos of Paul Robeson on YouTube.
