Harry Belafonte - Matilda (1966) Live 

OMG, this man is so HANDSOME and he KNOWS IT.

What a great entertainer he was. RIP....

We in the Caribbean Community will surely miss you. May you rest in peace. I am glad to have had the pleasure in meeting you in New York and Trinidad😢

Harry rest in peace with the Lord. The greatest legend. He fought for human rights along side with Martin Luther King.

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.

Rest in peace, Harry Belafonte. RIP😢 at 90 years old

My mother knew Mr. Harry Belafonte personally, she took me to one of his concerts when I was a little girl.

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 🙏🏽❤️🌈🌹

What a showman! Flirting end masse with just 2 lines!! Respect respect respect

This great man deserves at least a million views!

I grew up with his songs. I love him.

OMG what a beautiful voice and countenance. So gifted and handsome!

Now dancing in our hearts 🥰

He was a great man. Great activist for liberty and great singer and handsome. Gone are those days when we had good clean and neat songs.

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!

My parents always spoke of him. I love his songs RIP brother

He's brilliant

Great musician with a sense of humour no dull moment😀bravo

Thanks to the "Internet" and "RU-vid" 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 love the way he engages the crown

This is hilarious! What a superb showman!

Rest in power King.❤️

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!!!!!!!!!

Thoroughly enjoyed the show,what a great performance ,his sense of humour and how handsome he is.

Rest in peace sweet dear❤

Harry Belafonte has everything! And is very handsome!

Love you Harry Balafonte. Rest In Peace ❤️

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 !

What a rendition! ❤

That’s the most charming and entertaining live performance I’ve ever seen! Bless him may he rest in peace ❤️

One of God's most beautiful creations - inside and out.

Quelle élégance, quelle classe et quelle intelligence, une autre époque…

RIP Harry Belafonte a good life highly blessed

The look on Harry's face at 1:10 is priceless . I agree with an earlier comment great song especially with Harry

RIP great 😊👌😊 entertainer

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❤️

Rest in power Legend!

The essence of confidence ❤

Great stuff.

Mmmhmm his speaking voice is sexy with that accent. I remember learning this song in music class during Elementary school

Absolutely fabulous that no compares to this ! That magnificent

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 .

What a great live performance! He had a lot of energy on stage! The audience totally ruins the song every time but it's all in good fun. 😂

I loved Harry Belmonte. His singing and acting was great.

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

Wonderful entertainer

Unforgettable golden memory fans

This record my parents bought home when I was a little child. Then I thought ha was en old man, Belafonte. Nor either I understood what he said when he talked in English. Now I think he looks like he is very young. Mama Mia - it is me. I have got older.

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.

là je craque , trop beau !!

thank you for this upload

"Women over forty!......Matilda, Matilda...." hahahaha. This is the epitome of a true old school all around entertainer and musician wrapped in one.

Wonderful as always ❤
