  • I'm 16 and from the US, so I did first hear this song as "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" and grew up listening to it that way, this is beautiful and her voice is just incredible. This is how it should be performed. Passionate and soulful.

  • @Christian19991 she said during a concert: "People keep on asking me, how do you make that sound? and it used to offend me, because it's not a sound, it's my language!"

  • i like the little *kluck* sound she does sometimes

  • There is nothing better than the originals!

  • Please, where can I find this version in her cds???

  • Great!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Great song an performance !

  • Wow! is all I can say!

  • It is said that all humans originated from Africa. Having listened to this song and Miriam Makeba's voice, all I can say is that it touches "something" in me that is very deep and spiritual.

    Yes, I think that we may be all, at heart and deep down, of one racial origin.

    Something long forgotten that needs to be recalled; sooner the better.

  • You would never listen any other version of this song after hearing this one.

  • Ones in a Lifetime,someone comes along,like Miriam.....We have been Blessed.....what a magnificent Woman, She left us to soon
