I do not care what anyone says, this performance was incredible! This is the second song I have ever heard by her (the first was Mama) and I was in tears by the end, wow... I'm not even religious.
Gid did this on purpose just to shine his glory, see how coherent brenda is and her freestyling lyrics are angelic amd she made the song even more spiritually for a reson, God is trying to tell us something and its deep. I feel its either u high l, sober or not but God can use you bcoz of ur talent. This is video is nothing but a legit testimony that GOD lives
Shed tears, WE missed our Lil Africa sister a lot with her marvelous voice. No tired to rewatch her, blessing and incredible soul no matter you were i love u🌅
Me too, From a distance performed my Ma Brrrr gave me a whole new meaning and perspective to this song and Ive known the song since I was small, but never felt the words the way I did deep inside until I first saw and heard this performance. No matter what she will always be a Legend.
I was heavy on crack for 15years and watching this brought be tears of joy! No matter what the drug did to her body she got up and got dressed and came performed for the people she is a natural with a spirit and fight of a lion. Small but big heart.
Her performance wasn't about lyrics BUT a message that someone from A DISTANCE may look like your friend whereas he's an enemy. Great performance my late SISTER may your BEAUTIFUL SOUL REST IN PEACE you've TRIED your hardest, You've won the RACE.
it was obviously hard for her to keep herself from breaking down crying right in the middle of the song...u can tell she was emotionally into it... she was truly a strong woman... depression can destroy your life.
shared this song with my friend, our best and saddest Mabrrr... performance. contractual obligations! takes me to Kesha and her struggle. Hopefully more artists will speak up against this contractual abuse of great musicians after hooking them on drugs they die or get killed. RIP Brenda, Michael, Prince, Whitney, Elvis!
She never shyed away from her spiritual side, she did that by giving us some spiritual hits throughtout her GREAT career! never saw this vid before but am surely impressed!
This song makes me cry whenever I listen to it in Brenda's version she had a great voice and the song sounds so good and emotional it touches my heart.RIP
don't care if she was high on something if she doesn't know the lyrics just listen the emotions on her voice her performance!! Damn she was screaming her heart out !! almost makes me cry !! And by the way this is by far the best reedition of this song i ever heard I mean EVER !! RIP brenda in africa you'll always be and still one of the best!!
+Julian Bahell I agree with you her performance was amazing, it's sad how people always go the extra mile to either look for flaws or find something negative to say.Foucas on the good not the bad, nobody is perfect.
+Bittou flan makes me cry, very moving interpretation and i agree best reedition of this song i ever heard, far better even than the original done by also beloved bette middler. lots of love many many blessings
❤❤❤❤❤i love you. It's that legend never have a replacement again. The world miss you. I personally really miss you. I just got to know your name yesterday after so many search because i have been hearing from your songs and i keep wondering who is this . After 22 year's. Reality.
Skhumba brought me here too and m emotional I miss Brenda, now i'm looking for the "sniff"but not seeing it maybe Skhumba saw it but still watching. I am Sihle Mtshali.
He is watching. Sometimes we criticize and never see what we should see. See those tears and hear a voice calling out for help. We just clap, close the curtains and forget the tears that were real. His is with you and you had that whole package. true artist.
For a moment we should stop judging, I mean whether she was high on drugs or not who are we do judge her - May she rest in eternal peace. We all sin in different ways. Brrr's voice is something extraordinary - she was a gift.
A beautiful woman with true belief, dedication and very deep emotion in everything she seemed to do and or be involved with. A great teacher and inspiration for all the people of the world! Wish I could have known her in person.
its 2019 March the 27th and crying in my office listening to the emotions she performs this song and understand the lyrics crying for help from a Distance
Sniff or not she sang from a very deep place in her heart...she was the best, in actual fact she understood her band more than it understood her...The Voice. MaBrrr
For all of those who are mocking her need to understand that life can and will take a lot of ups and downs. You do not know how You will deal with problems. RIP Qween 💞💞💞

Gotta love Brenda. A true entertainer. Amazing how the background singers kept a straight face.
I never get tiered of watching this she was singing from deep down of her heart rip queen b😭
Me too, From a distance performed my Ma Brrrr gave me a whole new meaning and perspective to this song and Ive known the song since I was small, but never felt the words the way I did deep inside until I first saw and heard this performance. No matter what she will always be a Legend.
It came from a place of pain,a cry for help 😢a hero she remains
😢😢😢great gift from God
Yes my brother
Brenda means everything to me! A good black woman!! Long live the spirit of MaBrrr long live!!
This is the most emotional rendition of this song that I have heard. You can feel her pain.. 🙌🙌🙌
This lady was crying out for helped from a distance. Jesus Christ RIP
I was heavy on crack for 15years and watching this brought be tears of joy! No matter what the drug did to her body she got up and got dressed and came performed for the people she is a natural with a spirit and fight of a lion. Small but big heart.
She was giving a very powerful testimony of her belief in the one person she knew was truly watching out for her. This was raw emotion!
Each time I remember this video, I shed tears, talent who sought for help . R.I.P
🤣 🤣 🤣 SKHUMBA BROUGHT ME, I'M WAITING FOR THE SNUFF PART
Our Brenda fassie, am from Guinea but I love this lady, rip little darling. 2019 like if u still listen this song
2021 💪🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥
the carefree in this rendition is why brenda will always be my african queen
So true agree 100 % lol!! You are so right she is the queen. Love her still!! 🥰🥰😍😍😍
No matter how high she was, she killed that song without even finished every word
yooooo she was high...but man...best live performance I have ever seen👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤
The best ones seem to be caught up in drugs... Whitney was an example as well... But their talents are undeniable.. Goats forever
this makes me shed a tear..sometime we just need a friend to stand by us while God is watching us
Amen Esther... We need God always... No matter what people says
Me too it makes me shade tears . this world is not my home
I'm back here. 2023.
❤❤❤ Africa we’re created to be the best and bless
don't matter if she was high. She was and is wonderful. after all these years,I miss her dreadfully.
Am here because of Skhumba. 😂
It's fantastic! I was lucky enough to meet the lady, some years ago. She was so beautiful in so many ways.
There should be a Love and Respect button here 😍😍🙏🙏 Brenda Fassie was a true artist .
Because of Skhumba Hlophe that why i am here. good song and good performance by Queen MaBrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
She is a true South African Icon...
I agree and disagree, because she was bigger than south African. African icon.
Music and entertainment industry wil never, and i repeat, never b da same without u. U hv set quiet a bar.....
Luv you to bits, girl.....
Oh... So true...
Her performance wasn't about lyrics BUT a message that someone from A DISTANCE may look like your friend whereas he's an enemy.
Great performance my late SISTER may your BEAUTIFUL SOUL REST IN PEACE you've TRIED your hardest, You've won the RACE.
Come on now Brother... Wow
I must always come back to watch her sing this song..I feel emotional
it was obviously hard for her to keep herself from breaking down crying right in the middle of the song...u can tell she was emotionally into it... she was truly a strong woman... depression can destroy your life.
and drugs. i hate it
