[extract501]

our choir singing amavolovolo ths sng is great

[shoppingislife0123]

we just sang this in my choir! it's so awesome, we copied the moves from this video though. haha

[tsukikokoe]

I love this song. It's sung often as a dowry song and it commonly translates to "revolver"...don't jump to conclusions here, people, the song is about celebration of the end of violence in the area the songs hails from. It is a beautiful, symbolic piece about welcoming in happier, more peaceful times to our lives.

[ultimopeanut]

Do you know how much training it was to remember all those moves, it was a good time to do it but when you needed to do it it was hard work. I spent 4 years there man it was a blast, In 1930 we had a tricycle and only a tricylce, in 1940 we had a bycycle and only a bicycle, in 1950 we had a motorbike and only a motorbike, in 1960 we had taxis. Thanks for the video awesome memories

[StephanieGoode1995]

[iamabbagail]

[swimchick2297]

here is the translatioon im singing it in my choir... Ngkay kay see yay leh la kwa mah shoo see sah bamma volo volo we mah and so on and so forth

[ascanlan5]

Does anyone have a direct translation of all the lyrics in Amavolovolo? In our music, it says Amavolovolo is a slang word for revolver. But, would love to know the rest or even if that is accurate.

[mikitty9750]

yeahh same its an awesome song, but i have no idea what it means!!!

[sandra5028]

Great !!! I 've become a fan of DBC thanks for posting

Amavolovolo, could anyone tell us the meaning of this word, please ?

I'm singing Amavolovolo for Choral Fest for my entire school district. My school choir will be singing this solo instead of with the other schools.

[uummm15]

Does anyone know the name of the song in the second half of this video?

[vanessaunrau]

@uummm15 Ahmabicikili (i'm not sure if that's how you spell it). It's a funny song about having a bicycle then a car, and so on. :) I remember doing that one in hich school.

[ogunderson11]
