Gurrumul

Cheers TIG
Thank you for the excellent  link very moving sung in two languages.
He also performed for audiences including Queen Elizabeth II and former US president Barack Obama.
Blind from birth, he emerged from the remote Galiwin’ku community on Elcho Island off the coast of Arnhem Land in Australia’s north to sell over half a million albums worldwide.
The song which TIG put up is interesting also in that the words were writen by a white man and then adopted by black slaves. No one actually knows who wrote the music. As the notes in it are all part of the pentatonic scale it is assumed it is a Melody known to slaves of the time.
"Amazing Grace" is a Christian hymn published in 1779, with words written by the English poet and Anglican clergyman John Newton (1725–1807).
Newton wrote the words from personal experience. He grew up without any particular religious conviction, but his life's path was formed by a variety of twists and coincidences that were often put into motion by his recalcitrant insubordination. He was pressed (conscripted) into service in the Royal Navy, and after leaving the service, he became involved in the Atlantic slave trade. In 1748, a violent storm battered his vessel off the coast of County Donegal, Ireland, so severely that he called out to God for mercy, a moment that marked his spiritual conversion. He continued his slave trading career until 1754 or 1755, when he ended his seafaring altogether and began studying Christian theology.
I will attach the only song I know of that Gurrumul sang in English which he wrote about himself.
