[@janetaylor439]

When he first bought out this song, all Indians., even the pundits made a ruckus about this song! They banned people from even going to listen to this song. It was a fierce time for Mighty song...but as time wore on, and people started listening to the music finally got a grip of it and that there was true love between of all races, things began to notice the reality of this song. I love this song. "Sexy Marajin". ...just LOVE it's purity and joy of the love this man had for this woman, was incredible!!!!!! Mighty Sparrow, you're the best, babes!!!!Bless you, for ever!!!!!

[@ujimajame4601]

What a performance! Where has this been hiding? This is phenomonoal! Who would believe this was recorded exactly a year after Sparrow was in a coma and out of commission for a short period?

Can you please tell me what year is this show? Wish he could still perform. Sparrow has & is the only BEST entertainer & writer. The writers today will never come close to him.

I started listening to his music on my own and fell in love with it.. some things I didn’t understand so I would ask my mom what it meant and she’ll explain it.. now I’ll listen to him when I’m showering especially when I’m cleaning it motivates me to clean more lol
