Wonderful rendition of an old classic from the legendary MIghty Sparrow! It's nice to see other cultures embracing Calypso music, especially Sparrow's!. Shows that he has literally inflenced many parts of the world with his captivating songs and has indisputably put T & T on the map in more ways than one!. I too would love to see Sparrow perform with this group and others that promote his music.Would also love to see T & T govt.give recognition to Sparrow for all he has contributed to T & T's music, culture, tourism and inadvertently, it's capital!
A beautiful interpretation and indication of the power of great music, and how far it can go to touch a life. I completely enjoyed this performance of a fabulous Sparrow classic!
Cool! I'd only ever heard Mighty Sparrrow's classic Calypso original, which I grew up hearing my parents playing on record. Would never have imagined a non-Caribbean covering it. Great stuff!
Love it... girlyou put a different spin on our calypso music...Trini people would dance to this with the infectous rhythm...I could just imagine a Dame Lorraine dancing to this on the stage with you👌👌
I love this rendition. It's great to see appreciation for our Caribbean music, but I would have liked to see credits go to the Mighty Sparrow "Slinger Francisco" as the original creator of the lyrics and the title.
I saw this song by Mighty Sparrow played by the Uganda Army in January 1971. Those soldiers played like it were original and I have not forgotten it since...... come to think of it, it is 50 years ago.
ELIZA AND SHARON SHANNON HAVE THIS MAGICAL ENJOYMENT OF THEIR MUSIC AND JOY OF BEING WITH THEIR FELLOW MUSICIANS. sorry about capitals have to finish planting teddies
After seeing that warning at the begining of this video, i hope they had permission from the Mighty Sparrow to use his intellectual property. Just wondering
walkwitmeh427 That's. A very good. Question this is 2 years later and I showed several. Persons this and its the first for all who viewed this video but even the way it's written. In the section below shows. No mention. Of the Man himself so I would not. Be surprised. If they are. Trying to pass it off as their own. History has shown it wouldn't. Be the first time
@@differentvoice2282 -really? I saw Eliza Carthy and Saul Rose perform this at Sidmouth many years ago and Eliza told the story of how she came by this song, via her mother's record collection. There has never ever been any attempt to pass it off as their own original work. Also, what other times you allude to?
+Freewheeling Frere No no not like that haha... Yeah maybe I do take life a little too seriously.... but somehow the words do not sound as good as the singing and the melody and all.... I actually like this song pretty much....
@@markokecman1177 Its the context that makes it sensible, unfortunately she stuck to the original lyrics which with the arrangement and audience some of the context is lost.
i never liked folk music and - in general - still don't. eliza rocks. no need for soft porn videos - the music is good enough on its own. ps don't forget bert jansch's guitar playing!
one hour ago, still listen to eliza. who knew that a folk icon could rock?

Eliza Carthy interpretation of Sparrow's calypso, Good morning Mr Walker, is stupendous. Well done to you and your band. Excellent

very nice arrangement. would love to see Sparrow perform his calypso with them. That would be great.
I think this is it. The best song. We've found it

Hearty party, Carthy!

Brilliant. Love this arrangement. When you performing again in Yorkshire? Love to see you live so I can shake a leg.

Love the music but why alter the lyrics?
Did you get permission to have this performed or on your DVD?
Very interesting mix of music.Would like Sparrow to perform with them.
I surely hope that they know where this song came from and has given Sparrow the credit and paid for the privilege of using the song.
+George Livingstone You gotta be kidding - of course Carthy does!
The girl looks as though she can whine!😂😂. An interesting version, but I prefer our version for sure😅❤

Nooooooooo😢😢.you have crashed the song
Misogyny at it's finest!
Nice song... but DAMN are the lyrics dumb...
+Brian Griffin
some people take life too seriously - just enjoy it
+Freewheeling Frere
No no not like that haha... Yeah maybe I do take life a little too seriously.... but somehow the words do not sound as good as the singing and the melody and all.... I actually like this song pretty much....
There is a social commentary being made here! I guess it went right over your head!
TruKomplexion Unisex Medi-Spa Yeah? Nicki Minaj have that in her songs as well...
Doesn't mean they are good.
