'Wavin' Flag' by K'naan (Official World Cup Theme Song) on QTV

[@JuanRomero-tk8os]

Best World Cup Song Ever!!!!

[@astridpresley7153]

I know it is the best world cup song

[@mshiil7936]

That is true

[@valentinlanaro9303]

Worst*

[@howyoutravel]

1000% magnificent

[@Ravageur]

Shakira was not bad too!

[@doraejo55]

So many wars, settling scores Bringing us promises, leaving us poor I heard them say, love is the way Love is the answer, that’s what they say, But look how they treat us, make us believers We fight their battles, then they deceive us Try to control us, they couldn’t hold us Cause we just move forward like Buffalo Soldiers I love this song .

[@tunekahuna8146]

The lyrics just melts your heart if yall know what hardships are kudos knaan

K´naan with wavin flag was my memorie for 2010, it was my best year, and this is my favourite song.

[@lonk1769]

omg finding a comment from 8 years ago. Its crazy that now that i think about it. 2014 was also a lengendary year. Honestly we are just having fun but don't realize we are making memories :) . Also shows that I will keep coming back to this song no matter when

[@amreenaym786]

[@jasimmuhammed772]

I was 14 when I heard this song now iam 24, 10 years passed still gives me goosebumps. The golden time where Spain win the 2010 world cup 🤩

[@NicolayKnipper]

I was 8

[@agusia2a]

This is my favourite version of the song. Just words and music. Masterpiece...

[@thabiso2]

i havent watched this for about 8 years.... when u hear/see/feel something and everything comes back in ur memories. i love it

[@allenrojas6157]

13 years later and I still listen to this song. One of the best World Cup songs ever!

[@BladymirLombardo]

My god this song must mean so much to him, you can see through the video, that his eyes are just watering. I'm glad that he cares about his music, and that it actually means something to him and they aren't just empty lyrics.

[@odair2610]

Its been 8 years now since I first watched this video, and its still shocking the way that knaan feels this song... Gorgeous song

[@alexjbyun]

When you really pay attention to the lyrics and the meaning of the song and K'naan's home country you realize how truly tragic AND uplifting this song is....really is magical...

[@MarioMonsalve]

Awesome, I could listen that song a hundred times

[@RCexperimental]

This is a beautiful song, and K'Naan actually deserves all the fame he gets from it. Unlike all the shit on the radio that is just auto tuned talking with a catchy beat, this guy is really singing. And it's about something. An to top it all off this acoustic version is a great combination of 'ethnic' instrumentals complimented by more modern hip hop dynamics. Love it.

[@actionman9451]

Best uplifting song ever. Together we are strong 💪 Together we will beat COVID-19 ✊

[@Kingkaya211cm]

What have happened to this dirty world a song that talk about love and peace gets about 20 million but shit that others sang have 300 million views!!

[@stevenpena1364]

This song make me cry but at the same time make me happy and excited!!

[@MatthewFido]

Absolutely quality song, this is the epitome of freedom. Death to racism. I feel the passion and sincerity in his music. K'naan you rock!

[@dasist94]

A lot better than the 2014th world song.

[@jankoch]

really the imperfection of his singing does make the difference making this song authentic and great as it is! 1000 times better than all those pop chart hits nowadays with studio cleaned voices. All rubbish. This one is real and deserves being great. music is from the heart not from the speakers only. keep it up k'naan!

[@MrLebeau1685]

I think K'naan neva realized how much love & hope his lyrics would carry to people's hearts. God bless him and his wonderful talent!

[@superamanda]

Who's listening and crying 😢 2021 ! Stay strong all we will get over !!!

[@jabriilk938]

Knaan is a wonderful music artisit in this 'new version' he is talking about his Home the Horn of Africa Somalia and talking about the war which left his country poor and how it affected him.

When I get older I will be stronger They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag When I get older I will be stronger They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag And then it goes back, and then it goes back And then it goes back, oh Born to a throne, stronger than Rome But violent prone, poor people zone But it's my home, all I have known Where I got grown, streets we would roam Out of the darkness, I came the farthest Among the hardest survival Learn from these streets, it can be bleak Accept no defeat, surrender, retreat So we struggling, fighting to eat And we wondering when we'll be free So we patiently wait for that fateful day It's not far away, but for now we say When I get older I will be stronger They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag And then it goes back, and then it goes back And then it goes back, oh So many wars, settling scores Bringing us promises, leaving us poor I heard them say, "love is the way" "Love is the answer, " that's what they say But look how they treat us, make us believers We fight their battles, then they deceive us Try to control us, they couldn't hold us 'Cause we just move forward like Buffalo Soldiers But we struggling, fighting to eat And we wondering, when we'll be free So we patiently wait for that faithful day It's not far away but for now we say When I get older I will be stronger They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag And then it goes back, and then it goes back And then it goes back, and then it goes When I get older I will be stronger They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag And then it goes back, and then it goes back And then it goes back, and then it goes And then it goes And everybody will be singing it And you and I will be singing it And we all will be singing it Oh, oh, oh When I get older I will be stronger They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag And then it goes back, and then it goes back And then it goes back, and then it goes When I get older I will be stronger They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag And then it goes back, and then it goes back And then it goes back, oh When I get older When I get older I will be stronger Just like a wavin' flag Just like a wavin' flag Just like a wavin' flag Flag, flag Just like a wavin' flag

[@k03dz0n3]

this version is so much better than the watered down, commercial friendly coca cola version...

[@heavenlyplaya]

Honestly, when I listen to rap (I love music and am trying to express myself through it as well) I see just a money making ambition. K'Naan has no monetary ambitions, at least from what I feel. I can, as a man, cry with this man's songs because of the memory it brings from my own life. This is what music should be nowadays instead of "EWW CRANK DAHT SOLJYEAH BWAUY"

[@QXQ12244]

At times we tend to forget that wavin flag is a song of struggle and experience of a man himself who is gone through things

Listening this song in Brasil 2014 World Cup... the best song by far.. even though this wasn't the original version...

[@luchinbadin]

Porque no fue esta canción en lugar del waka, wakala por aquel entonces..?? Nunca lo entenderé, pero el tema oficial de los mundiales esta cada vez peor. Alguien dijo por ahí, porque no fue interprete Brasilero y en Portugues?? Hubiese sonado muy lindo y dado a conocer al mundo lo maravillosa que es la música hecha en Brazil... Ojala la FIFA tome nota de los comentarios en las redes sociales. Queda de Tarea para el próximo mundial.

[@xoxo5384]

Opinan de Waka Waka y ni saben la historia de esa canción. Proviene de los esclavos africanos, un canto a su liberación de hace muchísimos años. Shakira la adaptó a la temática del fútbol agregándole los versos de ese antiguo himno. Ya dejen de faltarle el respeto sin saber la historia que hay detrás.

[@stakt6931]

XOXO Shakira destrozó la canción

[@xoxo5384]

¿Según vos? Porque la mayoría de la gente votó Waka Waka como la mejor canción de los mundiales. Al parecer te olvidaste de votar por tu favorita :(

XOXO Una votación de internet? Listo, cierren todo.

Esta y "Un'estate Italiana" las mejores canciones para un mundial, lastima que eligieron la basofia de Shakira para el 2010. "Wavin´ flag" 2014. Las mierdas que inventaron ahora no tienen nada que ver con el esfuerzo y el futbol. Ni siquiera representa a Brasil.

Thumbs up if you knew K'naan before the world cup. He's such an inspiration and one of the few artist who have their mind in the right place along with Matisyahu and a few others.. We need a change. I feel like most people don't understand the significance of these lyrics.. Peace and Love K'naan keep it going.
