Re: Harry Belafonte Has Died

@aj1980   Thank you the post. My parents played his music a lot while I was growing up. I just asked Alexa to play Harry Belefonte songs and it really brought back memories.

Re: Harry Belafonte Has Died

My GF back in the day had a party. She had his album on and this song is what we sang along with but didn't understand a word of, lol. And when it got to the UGH part (kind of a loud grunt) the whole basement full resounded with UGH! Then we all laughed.
