Paul Simon - The Boy In The Bubble (from The African Concert, 1987)

❤ my heart is here, dont cry ...dont cry!!!!!!

❤❤❤❤❤

Bakithi Kumalo should be included on anybody's list of great and/or influential bass players.

Fantástico, foi um conserto fora de série, parabéns! Os africanos merecem!

HELL YEAH AFRICA ROCKS, THANK YOU PAUL AND BAND...😊💪✌️❤️💯

I'm more of a post punk and indie guy most of the time, but this is one of my favorite songs (and lyrics!) ever ❤.

always thought this was the best song on the album - and what an album and band

I was playing football intasmania for Sheffield this song ment every thing to me it's was a miracle and wonder we won the premiership

Graceland was the name I was looking for inside it I found this ❤

....IMHO Graceland is his BEST solo album...I love 'em all but this one is special

Free Palestine and end of Zionist. .

My late mum use to Love this Song And Paul Simon Album Graceland it brings back memories of my late mum.

Who is that bass player?

the guy is a dwarf.

Amazing days. Amazing music

The man the myth the legend - one of the greatest albums of all time - a perfect synthesis of African traditional and rock ❤

1000% this would not even made today😊

🥰😏

Boy in a bubble. A perfect conclusion.

❤Still feeling this in 2023❤❤

1987 i was 8years old and still listening and watching this❤❤❤

I was 5 years old and could hear the concert from our back porch! We were about 2 miles from the stadium... Memories

Marc Park Africa Tears check it out 😂

My late mom used to play this when I was a kid about 4 years old. This song remained in my memory for more than 20years till I was able to google it with a little rhythm I can remember thanks to google. May her soul rest in peace 😢🙏🏻 Love all the way from Nigeria, 2023 ❤

Rufaro stadium Harare Zimbabwe, it was real musical fest

38 For as in those days before the flood,
they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage,
until the day when Noah entered the ark, 39 and they were unaware until the flood came and swept them all away,
so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

Praise Yahweh, our creator, our savior, and through the flesh as Christ our kinsman redeemer.

❤🎉😊

Love that fretless bass....I've seen this video so many times but I've only just noticed Paul Simon's selection of spare picks on the microphone stand....

Well that Mugabe poster aged badly... who could have seen that coming?😏

First video tape my father ever bought on emigration and sent back to communistic then Poland, when I hear that concert I go back to 5th class of primary school...

Sound engineers on that concert were amazing, need DVD to hear what I mean

Given how animals have taken over South Africa, the old way was better. Landowners are being murdered and the government supports it. Hey Bono....would you like to say something?

We need that distant constellation

i love the guys he did this music with. some of the very best i have ever heard. best music paul ever got down and recorded.

Great band. Natural voices blending in the air

I certainly feel that wonderful bass and such a killer performance,.

Paul had a decorated career with Art, had a great solo catalogue and then, with some amazing African talent, he somehow gives us Graceland.

Bravo, Paul!

❤The music of Faso is an inexhaustible source of sweetness.
It allows us to plunge deep inside ourselves and at the same time resonate with our fellow man, Yé Lassina Coulibaly❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

The way we look to a distant constellation
That's dying in a corner of the sky. Why do I love this line ??

Огромное СПАСИБО за эту песню!!!
Я знаю её с детства!!!)))

Amazing music🙏

It's good to see once again ray phiri and bk bakithi khumalo doing their thing

Rest in peace to Forere Motloheloa of the Sesotho Traditional band Tau Ea Matšekha. He was the accordionist on this song. He passed away on 9 February 2021 from a short illness, at the age of 74. Rest in peace. 🙏🏿

Robala ka khotso Ntate 🇱🇸

The melody from the "squeeze box" takes me to another continent ,strong ties woven tightly by bonds of music.
I feel like grabbing Simon's face with both palms and loudly place a smacker on his talented head!

2 bars in and the crowd acknowledges the song - timeless classic.
