Harry Belefonte (born Harold Belanfontaine Jr.), is one beautiful man. I adore his voice, sexiness, looks, sense of humor and the energy he puts into his characters and his stage performances. I also admire his humanitarianism. He gives so much of himself to people. He lives such an unselfish life. I adore every bit of this historical, intellegent, renaissance man.
I have admired him for many things- his voice- grace- activism-calmness when in a discussion about injustice giving people of many Opinions to speak and then giving them examples of injustice. His friendship with Dr. Martin Luther King helped him to continue to work on behalf of justice for his entire life. A life well lived!! Thank you for sharing your beauty with us. Rest in Peace 🙏🏽❤️🌈🌹
My dear Mother loved Harry's music. She had a studio version of Matilda, with the whistling, on vinyl. This video is impressive, despite, only offering a fragment of the lyrics, displaying Harry's showmanship, abroad!
Rest in peace God 's soldier for justice and equality. A soldier for peace and humanity. Our world was touched by his caring and kindness that will never be forgotten for years to come!!!!!!!!!
Thanks to the "Internet" and "UA-cam" that i can watch a live recording of a evergreen classic that grows fresh with every year.I was 6 years old when this song was sung and still enjoying listening to it in 2014!
I used to listen to his record albums growing up as a small child of 6 or 7 years old and still love his songs ! Need to look for his records at thrift stores ! Hope I find some of his old records !
If you have a library card that let's you use Freegal, much of Belafonte's songs are available on that application. The music is DRM free & you own the songs you download. I think you're allowed to download up to 5 songs per week.
I didn't read all of the comments, but whatever you said, he is great. Every time I have a chance to listen his songs or watch video, I am doing this with pleasure. All his concerts a big time show. SUPERB !!!!
I studied piano from an early age and even tho my mother exposed me to all kinds of music and artists sadly ,I was t too distracted by the music of my teenage years to appreciate all this man was as a singer ,entertainer , humanitarian and all around human being . Beautiful on the inside as well as such a handsome man. He certainly will be missed. Mr. B. - May you RIP❤️
Many years ago, one of my eighth grade classmates so adored Harry Belafonte that she wrote a poem about his magnetism and vitality. When I heard the recording of him singing "Matilda" at Carnegie Hall, I understood her poem!
Harry Belafonte a cantato mattina Harry Bella Fonte a delle belle canzoni del secolo passato. Auguri Harry. Sei il piu' sei il piu' grande cantante. Del secolo. Passato. Complimenti Harry .
My first cruch at 4 or 5 years of age ..What a wonderful entertainer he was, with the most delicious sence of humor- and a very kind man with wisdom and grace and dignety.I had very good taste at a young age!
His Work was exactly for him. His touch was essential to mankind also With Martin Luther King and Belafonte was genious to make lyrics and he was a man With supple -lithe words❤️
Whao! I can't stop watchin Belafonte Matilda.this is comedy of our time. Musicians overenjoyed in Sweden that they lost their keys. Over 40yrs women probably were matildas at their prime time. Bigspenders had a good show reason they spend big. The two men with Belafonte never had any Matilda in their lives except Belafonte. Scholarships struggled and are still struggling for life. I love this piece.
Muy muy bueno agradable, ameno, divertido,de todo una entrega al público, pocos como Harry.Tiene una esencia conmovedora feliz de haberlo encontrado en esta pagina

A great documentary about a GREAT MAN. He gave millions, his prestige, his time, his contacts for the cause of civil rights. Film very faithful to his autobiography, "My Song."
OMG, this man is so HANDSOME and he KNOWS IT.
and he is right- because his heart is wonderful too.
😉🤣👍!
Casado tres veces. 🙏🏻🌈 QDEP
