Johnny you are a legend. An artist that bridged the race gap through music. You were our voice when we were silenced. You felt our hearts through the pain of segregation. You are truely South Africa's King of time. We salute you.
Finally, I found the song I've been hearing at the tail end of it at Box Store Groceries, Coffee Shops and Fast Food Restaurants for the past year. I feel so happy now. Long Live Johhny Clegg.
RIP to the Great Johnny Clegg. Your music is such an integral part of our democracy in RSA. Your voice as smooth as rain, your grace as calm as the African breeze. Siyabonga Lala ngoxolo
I am from the United States and I like this song. Also I've listened to Clegg's other albums and I have to say I enjoyed them. It is a shame he passed away. RIP Another musical legend gone.
I knew it had to be you Tata. Came online to check who sang the song . I heard the song in passing but everything about it was so familiar. Halala. Thank you for gracing us with your music. You brought back old memories with that song. It just takes you somewhere.
Anyone else here from 1991? Watched Career Opportunities, loved Cruel Crazy Beautiful World. Decided to find some more Johnny Clegg stuff to listen to on RU-vid (mainly 1980s/1990s). Then went to Spotify and found this amazing song! What a voice and his music is great, very innovative, then and now.
Every time I watch this I wish there was another version with your commentary explaining how you did the special effects, and the messages you wanted to send in each scene.
What a great legend of a human being........he was so smart in the way he knew how much local SA music can move people and transcend generations.He never flinched in his view of hope for SA people.....even when it looked like cival war was about to break out.
This might just be my crazy mind. But I think there is a movie in this song. Can see this scene happening with out the watch dropping him mourning the girl and hearing about the king of time. He then goes in search of the king of time and after a long crazy search find him in a tiny little watch/electronics shop ( Old black man with a white wooly beard and tiny round glsses comes to mind) he then becomes his apprentice and actually learn to builds the machines and in turn becomes the new king of time and then goes back saves the girl and drops the watch and paper.
Absolutely love it. " been thinking about the way I think about my thinking" Imagine if more people were doing this. The video does not do the song justice. Its cute but the song is typical Johnny and so much more.
There are always 3% of people that are negative. It is just the way. They probably need the King of Time in their lives. Everyone makes mistakes. Forgive them. And move on.
Johnny Clegg king of time Mr best thing Dave and ever seen video Music are so cool I love it you’re so cool🤯💞 like in the video music there was a guy who open the portal and save his girl friend
