    I used to listen to this song from the album, juluka african litany, when l was 12years old in early 1980. Now l am 55 years old and still love the music.

    One of my all-time favourite songs. Peace and safe journey, Johnny - you were a fantastic talent, and a strong voice for humanity. I hope the African sunshine is warm on the next astral plane.

    Wonder Why I never heard of johnny Clegg till today. I have pored over his music and am visibly impressed at his brilliance and love for his country. This humble man truly was colour blind and this what we all need. RIP great son of Africa

      Imagine the privilege and emotion to hear this as a postgraduate student being sung by him c. 1993 in a small venue in St Louis in the middle of winter, having been away from home in South Africa for 2 years

    Oh I love my country, my South Africa, especially now in a new wonderful dispensation, our democracy, God bless our leaders, God bless ANC and all those who died and shed their blood for our freedom. The oppressers, haters of freedom will call you idiots but you even brought them freedom they are enjoying today. They enjoyed seeing black people oppressed by their evil apartheid, africans oppressed in their country of origin, forward with progressive forces forward. Thank you Johnny and Juluka for breaking those oppressive walls and gave us beautiful such songs, God bless you. Thank you we will always enjoy these songs.
