[@meenaiqbal2846]

Sorry to break it to you. They copied it without giving credits. The original was created in 1939 called Mbube.

Yes, but why did they hide her off stage?

[@kerryhudson4607]

@@aleccullen2696 I really do not know

[@aleccullen2696]

Probably a combination of the fact that she wasn't a man (it was the 60's), and she wasn't a full member of The Tokens (being an opera star as a day job). All I know is that she made the thing as brilliant as it was and deserved to be on stage with the men. A later version shows a blond girl at the back of the men. It's Kelly Krepin Defade. She does less singling than Anita Darian did in the first version but at least you can see her on camera. Fantastic. @@kerryhudson4607
