Haiti I’m Sorry

Posted on January 20th, 2010 | by Rohan |

I am unsure as to whether David Rudder was a visionary, or whether it is just tragic fate, but the words of this song have moved me to tears over recent days. For some reason, it took a friend of mine sharing this video on Facebook, for me to post it here.

However, post it I have, and I hope that it strikes a similar chord with all of you. For my part, whilst I haven’t much to give, I have already pledged my next 3 months’ bonus to Haiti, and am hopeful of being able to use my Sabbatical from work later this year to visit my Caribbean neighbours.

Haiti, we are all sorry, and our thoughts are with you.

Thanks Lenandlar for inspiring this post.

As a final footnote, the lineup for ‘Hope for Haiti Now’ has been confirmed by MTV, and can also be seen here.

Hi Jess, well i'm not surprised at all. Ro has it in his genes. His dad is one of my favorite cricketers of all time. I never saw him play live but my dad still talks about 'lil Kalli' as if it was yesterday he was 'beating up' Dennis Lillee. We are from the same County (Berbice) in Guyana

When you hang with Ro, you are bound to meet all sorts of big time cricketers. Brian is indeed a special meet.

Thanks Len ... you have to understand how many times Ro has made us all sit through Rally Round the West Indies ... even though we're girls, English and don't understand cricket! Although my friend did blush when Ro introduced her to Brian Lara!

jpayne - same guy who sang 'Rally round the WI'

@rohan_kalli Ro, you kept on making me cry after Dani died, now you've done it again! Is this the same guy that sang your cricket song?

Thanks Ro. I'm moved to tears everytime i hear it

@rohan_kalli you hip to Haitian MC Mr. Reo??

@Fionabloom had not heard him until I saw your earlier tweet - definitely enjoying!

@rohan_kalli Mr. Reo is the TRUTH! Haunting "Haiti I'm sorry"- damn a bit late right!

@Fionabloom more than a bit late! Now you've got me listening to Mr Reo, could be a late night on YouTube - thx as ever for your great posts

This is so moving Kalli x
