  • The original singer, hary belafonte is now a great social activist for human rights. this song is an inspiration about the bananna republic

  • Actually it's a Trinidadian. Google Banana boat song.

    To the one above post: Rap artists have been using classical Indian songs for years.

  • Does anybody ever pay any attention to the words of this song? This is not very happy song. It's about this guy whom are Banana picker...working picking a banana all night so when daylight comes he can go home. "Mr... come and total how much I picked". Just pay attention to the words and find out.

  • Okay. Stop singing in Latin, and you're not allowed to sing rap, or country. Depending on your ethnicity.

  • great

  • wikipdia? lol

  • lol. good scept 4 the end. she said taranchla in stead of shorting it like taranchala. anways, good preformance

  • the origins of the "banana boat song"are often stated incorrectly.the song originally a jamaican folks song of unknown authorship.
