Johnny Clegg Scaterlings Of Africa

[@hyppo94000]

I grew up with your music mister Johnny CLEGG. Back then when I lived in Congo I watched first white man in TV who danced and sang like black man. I understood your message few years later. Now I proud to be an african thanks to men like you. Rest in peace white Zulu.

This song and video says it all, he was one of us, in flesh and blood. Living in South Africa in the 80s and early 90s Johnny was an unusual phenomenon in apartheid era South Africa.

I was in the airport lounge in Johannesburg siting next to a chap with a guitar case, loads of people kept coming up and shaking his hand. Heard someone ask him if he was Johnny Clegg and he confirmed. I googled him because I wanted to see what all the fuss was about and found this song. He caught me watching this video on my phone listening to it with my headphones. He smiled! I still think it's amazing though.

Was introduced to Johnny by my dad whilst growing up. He told me that it's real music and i should be listening to such. I lost my dad in 2001 and a year later i came across Johnny Clegg's anthology album in a shop and i bought it, took it home and spent the entire afternoon listening to it. The songs sounded new to me and it has been on my playlist since. Thanks Johnny, its people like you that makes this cruel crazy beautiful world a better place to live in. with love from Papua New Guinea...

He was born in Lancashire in the UK. He is not a white South African. He loved the music, the culture and the dance. He was barred from live performances and selling records during apartheid. We are all humans regardless of skin colour.....check your facts before posting.

You can be South African without being born there, he moved there when he was 6. "check your facts before posting." - lolz

tomrio we don't care where the "facts say he was born" He is a scatterling from Africa, as he says

[@tomriojustjack]

i know, thats in agreement with the point i'm making - it doesn't matter where he was born, he moved to SA when he was 6 and has now adopted it as his homeland. I was simply saying that travellingbirder's point that he was born in Lancashire is irrelevant.

"Ancient bones in Olduvai" Olduvai Gorge is in the Great Rift Valley of Africa, where the bones of "Lucy" were discovered. Clegg combines science and culture in this great song, and reached me as teenager in the 1980s. After I had seen this video on TV a few times, I paid much more attention to Africa than I had previously. I learned about human origins, and it was wonderful.
