@askido351 The story is the young girl has gone clubbing and is drinking alcohol and meeting men. The mum is at home worried. The women sing "My child where are you, with who?". Tuku sings "Take the child (girl) home the day is gone it is dark outside." Thats basically what the song is about.
For those who cant understand .All he is saying is: young man accompany this child(young woman) home because it is getting dark. The mother also asks where have you been, who with?
In the video you see the guys flirting with the girl in the pub, the clock is going round and round whilst the mother is cooking supper wondering.
he is well known. i once ran into a marcy's fashion show in nyc n this song was the most played tune @ that show as the models walked down showing off thier what ever they were modeling n at the after prty too it was the only non english song played n danced with almost everybody. i was realy happy 4 him.
Im from cincinnati, stumbled upon this man's work and have listened with much pleasure ever since. Cant understand a word yet, but the music and vocals are beautiful
mamma mia,he/shes saying he likes Oliver's music but cant understand a word cos he's from Zambia...hes not refering to Tuku,but to himself....south african
That's because African music abounds in Cuba. Cubans are good at keeping the musical traditions. Zimbabwe especially would be a good place to go, especially to learn of the work the Africans called Cubans have done on the Continent. Wish you the best on your travels!
you know this is the music they play back home.....maboy, come on you know what I'm saying! At those endless barbeques with the moms cooking sadza in the house, the men in charge of the grill...kids running around out side, collecting the beer bottle caps that the men drop. Am I right? Am i right?!
Ha ha Great song, Zimbabwe was then the hub of joy and great positive attitude. We were having a blast, and we were sharing a common cause and united arguably. Today the revolution, has eaten its children, the leaders have forgotten why they fought the war, and they line their pockets, why the Povo suffer and struggle for a decent meal. Shame Mugabe. Shame ZANU PF.
I dont understand a shit but the music is brilliant use to dance to this song sometime ago,guys does can anyone upload John Chimbanduras video pleeaaaaaaaaaaaaase!
owwww I love this song!!!!!!! It's genial,.... Greetings from Mexico,.... :D
