GOLD By Maestro (A tribute to Hasley Crawford, 1976) Verse1 The Olympiad Who thought a man from Trinidad Could run the 100meters and capture great honours The experts never had him to win They bad-talk him from the beginning They all remain with they mouth open They couldn’t believe what really happen Crawfie, we Crawfie Chorus: Then they say they never see that yet Start to finish moving like ah jet Lane one Champion! Montreal Gold Medal! Gold! Gold! The fastest human in the whole wide world!
Hasely Crawford was an inspiration to a lot of youths in T&T when he won (including yours truly) in 1976 to run track, I remember we used to race each other pretending to be crawford, and this calypso is a classic from that time and yes clintmack28, I agree with you the "soca" they singing now is complete garbage, the kaisonians of yesteryear were poets to the highest degree, who could rhyme, sing something without saying it and put it in the correct context, their songs are timeless not so 2day
true kaiso better than all the crap that is produced now! why we have to change our music the world should accept it the way it is! the people who does change the kaiso mix not true to the music man
I acknowledge the greatness of Torpedo, Burns, Darryl and Ato, but there is only one Crawfie!!! Best there ever was, best there is and best there ever will be.
