Love Tuku
Think of the changes he saw in his too short life:
Born in Highfield, Rhodesia
Died in Harare, Zimbabwe 
The very same place under new management.

Lyrics:

Munemi nangarai mune dj
Munemi nangarai mune dj
(shanda mwanangu shanda nesimba)
Munemi nangarai mune dj honai
Nemi nangarai mune dj
(shanda mwanangu shanda nesimba)

Wendi nangara iwe une dj seiko
Wendi nangara une dj
(shanda mwanangu shanda nesimba)

Kwenyu kumishando ndinoswika
Andiseki (andiseke)
Ndino remekedza wani (shanda)

Ndoshandira mhuri yangu
Ndoshandira mhuri yangu varume
Ndoshandira kurarama
Ndoshandira kurarama vakomana

Basa rangu kufara
Basa rangu kutamba varume
Basa rangu kuyimba
Basa rangu kufadza iwewe

Nemi ndingarambe dj
(shanda mwanangu shanda nesimba)

Ndoshandira mhuri yangu
Ndoshandira mhuri yangu varume
Ndoshandira kurarama
Ndoshandira kurarama vasikana

Basa rangu kufara
Basa rangu kutamba varume
Basa rangu kuyimba
Basa rangu kushanda iwewe

Nemi ndingarambe dj
(shanda mwanangu shanda nesimba)
Nemi ndingarambe dj
(shanda mwanangu shanda nesimba)
Nemi ndingarambe dj
(shanda mwanangu shanda nesimba)

Kwenyu kumishando ndinoswika
Andiseki (andiseke)
Ndino remekedza wani (shanda)

Ndoshandira mhuri yangu

I've seen this man in concert this past fall (great show) He's from Zimbabwe, is very famous there, has put out dozens of albums in Africa (only a few have been released in the US). He speaks out against oppression in his country, and won't be silenced, even tho' it is dangerous to voice the troubles of his people. Check out his album, put out by Putamayo, called Tuku Music (his nickname is Tuku).


You could also try this Tiny Desk performance. The whole thing is worth watching, but I especially like the final song, Haidyoreke, where they really get into the groove and are clearly having a whale of a time.

Same if you're a Yes fan, right? 

"Going for the one
Going for-ward to

Listen in time
Taken so high
To touch, to move
Listen to life

Touching, touch time
Travel, twilight
Taken so high
Roundabout, sounding out
Love me so"

hmmm... looking over some of these comments makes me imagine "Past Conversations That Must Have Been"... (1964, translated from the French) ...I guess the music is ok, but why can't these 'Beatles' sing in French, like us civilized folks.. (1780's, translated from Italian) ... why must this Mozart insist on writing in that awful, barbaric language of his? His compositions in our language were so lovely, and everyone knows that Italian is the only proper language for opera...

I am exactly the same way DoofusGeezer. I don't need to understand the lyrics to still enjoy the music. And music is a universal language. You can tell from the notes if the music is sad or joyful or full of suspense. That is why music is almost always used in movies - to bring across different moods or emotions to the viewer.

Look at the map of people who listen to this station. They aren't all Americans!!! Maybe if more folks spend time listening to music from other countries, they wouldn't be so hateful about what they don't understand.

Most people in the rest of the world learn english through listening to american music, you go to another country and hear people trying out american lyrics, its nice, and wouldnt be so bad for us to try it with other languages as well just a thought
