6 dislikes? How can you have a heart & soul and even consider pressing the thumbs down for such a beautiful uplifting celebration of the spirit?

I love Zap Mama. This is a great song, amazing arrangement and performance, and incredibly inventive video.

[mirakix]

Haven't heard or seen them for ages! Where are Zap Mama now?!

[soundquality]

I saw a video of them singing this live on some PBS live music show. Not Austin city limits.

[ktmpl]

YEAAAAAH!

[remembertoflosj]

I'm looking for some of their songs that go : Stum-steket-stakke-dum-dum steady..

and anotherone going like : Hi-ah-ah Hi aaah.. but try to find that on the net.....

[MsPrincessaj]

@remembertoflosj

Greetings:

The name of the song you are looking for: "stum-steket stakke dum dum steady" - is I believe "Take Me Coco", which is found on their Adventures in Afropea 1 CD. You can listen to excerpts via Amazon.com. The other one I am not so sure about, as there are several songs that sound phonetically like what you described "Hi-ah-ah Hi aah". Hope the info is helpful. Blessings.

[remembertoflosj]

@MsPrincessaj Thank you! 'Take me coco' wasn't the "stum-steket-stakke-dum-dum-st­eady"-song I was looking for but instead it was the (whispered) 'hi ah-ah Hi-aaah'-song, I was trying to find!! :-) Looking into your other info. Much obliged. A tes souhaites! (like 'blessings', in zap mama-language)

[starRavenCraft]

@remembertoflosj that song is called Plekete, its from the album adventures in afropia, isnt zap mama awesome, they sang Plekete in an episode of sesame st once

[Cloudgatekeeper]

[Cloudgatekeeper]

@Marixpress2 I hope they close tent to keep stink inside........all of women in tent can make very smelly situation for what I want to do with them.....I want be involved in such situation.

[Lordlako]

Wow I'd forgotten how much I digged this song when I was a kid.. One of the things I really love about Youtube is being able to find old favorites again!

[mbala]

pure. simple/complex. perfect.

[jeremy1069fm]

When I was 13 or 14 this was my favorite song. This really takes me back.

[motifontheback]

[yb3000]

[orignalBoom]

I was listening to one of the albums and had one of the deepest sleeps I have ever had.

[Hikowas]

These guys are the best. My A Capella group is covering a song of theirs, I'll definitely post a video of it.

[skimes11]

Be sure to pick up the new Zap Mama feat Vincent Cassel / Non Non Non (Aqua Queen Remix) available at iTunes now!

[littlesistah3]

what are the words to this song in English?

[TheC2Project]

This song will live forever if no where else in my mind. I think it is too ignored. The vocal progressions and subtle dynamics are Amazing. i have no idea what the french parts are, but I feel it. I love it. I use to fall asleep to their music all 1am in the morning.

I love them more together than the solo.

[xungho]

@TheC2Project no worries, you're not alone, even if I agree this song (among others of Zap mama) should be way more valorised

[tdottchickk]

what country's she from?

[hyaenidae]

@tdottchickk Her father was from Zaire, and her mother is Belgian. He was killed in their civil war, at which time she was a little girl. Her mom and the kids escaped into the forest, and hid out for several weeks. That is where she gained her appreciation for the syncopated vocal harmonies and rhythms of the pygmies... who invented this type of singing.

[kevipants]

@hyaenidae Actually, her father was Belgian and her mother was Bantu, but everything else is correct.

[hyaenidae]

@kevipants Thanks for the correction!

[Waxx9000]

@hyaenidae But she was raised since very young age in Brussels (Belgium), in the Matonge quarter (a semi-congolese/african quarter in the Ixelles part of Brussels) i believe.

[ErykahBadu1]

@hyaenidae no her mother was from zaire(democratic republic of the congo) and her father was from brussels.but her father was killed and they left for brussels.

[hyaenidae]

@ErykahBadu1 Thanks for posting that correction!

[amoh18]

I love this song!! Zap mama is a breath a fresh cultured air. lol If anyone is/was fortunate enough to find the lyrics to this song, I would love you forever! Thanks Yall!

[Needing2Know]

Zap Mama is great! I love them. I listen to them nearly every day. Can't you just tell how they love to make music? Every note matters in their sound. Lovely.

[krysant50]

it's supposed to be Blue Monday according to British scientists LOL to me this video brightens every soul in every place, any time. thank you Gisa you shared it with me.

krysana

[hyaenidae]

For the haters of her hip hop, if you listen to 7 and Super Moon, there are still elements of the acapella in all of her music. I love the original as well, but her growth is her art, and not to please everyone. She is truly unique.

[artemisa1726]

hermosoooooooo!!!! definitivamente la paz solo se lograra con musicaa!!! saludos al mundo entero desde colombia!!! paz y amor para todos!!

[kachikally1]

i love the part when they are telling secrets.

[jmkismadar]

I absolutely love it from Hungary!!!!

[harrycarrieokie]

This is so much better than all the boring pseuso-hiphop nonsense she's been messing with..!

[aroundtheworlda]

Danger of love is imba. And she is so much hotter than the other wierdos in this video Im glad she split she is OP the others need to l2p irl.

[fishgul69]

@harrycarrieokie total lol at that

[amalgam9]

@harrycarrieokie diagree. her new shit is juts as good, just a progression in a different direction. do u not like hip hop?

[vamploboluv17]

@harrycarrieokie Much agreed. its such a shame that when phenomenally talented groups subject themselves to ghettoshitamerican music how they lose their talent.

[yhnops]

@harrycarrieokie false. /watch?v=Om9-R2Im_28 brilliant tune. As most by Dj Krush.

[DETmostwanted]

@harrycarrieokie I AGREE!!!!

[nge6574]
