Johnny Clegg - Dela (HQ sound)

[iarhungry]

Proudly South African!

[Babygirl7862]

Hell yeah "George of the Jungle" brought me here :) I remember this movie from when I was little. *sigh* memories!!! That was the childhood I remember. GREAT MOVIE

[journeygirl3]

oh well hello childhood, where ya been?

[MrMickthemonster]

Just found out about this guy. I like it.

[jodas88]

6 personas no entienden nada de la vida

[dontscrewtheworld]

@jodas88 translated: 6 people understand nothing about life.

[CCCAnnie]

It loosely translated (like much zulu) means "come closer and stay by my side"

[journeygirl3]

Thumbs up if George of the jungle brought you here!

[TheSkandyCandy]

This song literally just brought me to tears. This has so many childhood memories for me, because, yes, George of the Jungle brought me here.

[GemmaEatsZombies]

I love this so much!! <3

[lainriver]

MDQ !!! =)

[lisang99]

@lainriver ?

[Bleach821]

David Copperfield anyone?

[1dschamp]

@Bleach821 Spot on. When i listen to this song all i remember is the floating rose and the astounded girl he performed the trick with.

[Bleach821]

@1dschamp Yeah! Especially when he takes the napkin rose and makes it burst into flames and turn into a real one. :) This is such a soothing song to accompany the trick, I've fallen in love with it ever since that performance.

[QuestionableRiley]

WOO!

I'm still listening to this on repeat whenever I get the chance.

[B1LD4ck]

''dela'' mean share

[jarhead1521]

What a nice song!...

[lucastube2796]

PARA TODOS LOS ARGENTINOS, DE PARTE DE MDQ!!!!!

[Zominess]

Ahh,

George of the jungle <3.

[rebelosty]

This song seriously motivates me for some reason. Love it!

[QuestionableRiley]

Holy crap. I've had this on repeat for about two and a half hours.

[LouisePleasee]

YASS LOVE THIS SONG

[MrCrissangelfan]

My South African friend told me that Sondela is a place and Dela is it's nickname.

[yancey06]

thumbs up if David Copperfield brought you here

[ReinhardvonHolst]

FYI, I used to date a South African babe and she said "Dela" is a womans name.

SOUNDTRACK OF GEORGE OF THE JUNGLE

[Calamistrate]

after knowing this song, i dont scold my dog for barking at the moon anymore :)

[concord925jorge]

eewew



[TheBlueeyedJew]

this song came out over 20 years ago...well before the stupid movie.

[UltimateRpGx]

@TheBlueeyedJew hey hey hey. its a good movie, in fact the movie probably revived the song, because i hadn't heard it before that, and now i love it thanks to the film.

so please, no insulting George:)

[V2ASify]

Everytime I listen to this song, I can't help but to dance like no one is watching.

[dontscrewtheworld]

so then why does the dog howl at the moon?

[bobfari]

@dontscrewtheworld Because It Loves The Song So Much!!!!! XD

[tronic998]

this always reminds me of george of the jungle. great film and even greater song. dancing round the fire with this song is as awesome as it looks by the way. i've tried it :P

[LyndaHudson]

@tronic998 I always see Brendan Fraser dancing around the fire when I hear this :)

[ChristianMoscaAtilio]

MDQ Forever! (:

[nicholaskingmequeen]

2 people don't know why the dog howls at the moon

[bferrs]

I can't remember who told me but when I was a kid after watching George of the Jungle I'd constantly sing this and someone said the pre chorus translates to

content, content, I am content when I'm with you.

closer, closer, come closer mama I burn for you.

[sorrydonteven]

george of the jungle brought me here

[FriikD]

Many of you probably wonder, what "Dela" means, well I did a little research on the internet and found out, that it actually has many ways of describing it and not with just one word, but with a whole phrase - "to stretch long" "to have or possess long enough", "to have satisfaction", "to look for something to satisfy one's heart with". Those of you, who claim, it can be directly translated to one word, which being "content", I sincerely doubt it, because it makes no sense in the song itself :).

[Kooshmeister3]

@FriikD Why not? Content can mean "satisfied," which would indeed make sense in context of this song.

[timendo215]

@Kooshmeister3 I Agree, seeing as the one line saying "Dela, Dela, when I'm with you." Which could just mean content with you, but then again, music is all about finding your own meaning in the lyrics.

[SherbetLollipop]

@FriikD it's also possible that dela means "approach" or "come closer" - in the context of the song it makes sense.

[TVBea]

@FriikD Well, I'm not saying that you are wrong, but I just wanna say that "content" accutaly can fit in. In the purpose that you finaly know where you belong, and that you are in the right content. That he has found someone that makes him feel like he's right where he's suppose to be :)

[malzg]

what album is this from? thx!

[TheSaucyalexjr07]

This is the song I use when I have bonfires :) Great Song

[DaveyBabey]

[Alimac1112]

I LOVE this song!!! probably my favorite alongside with "Great Heart". My parents used to listen to the CD and the tapes all the time, but I've never met someone my age who listens to this kind of music ( i'm 17)... it's a shame cause they're missing some GREAT music!

[janehomeanimator]

[deeget]

@Mirialiah good choice hope it helps youstay together. remember husband you think you know why the dog howls at the moon! lol

[litonfire1]

@Mirialiah How did it go?

[Mirialiah]

@litonfire1

We actually ended up picking a different (slower) song for the first dance because neither of us are good dancers and we couldn't put anything together for it. xD

It's still a very important song to me though. It makes me cry sometimes. ^_^'

[jacobellw]

@Mirialiah I'm a photographer in the UK and a couple had this as their first dance song yesterday. It was magical! :)

[starsandsea]

[rufio2001]

This song always tears me apart, just like the rest of the record. If you enjoyed this song, please give it a like. The more that do will give others an opportunity to hear Johnny Clegg and Savuka for themselves. The words from their music give me strength every day.

[Lyrixn]

@alexius321 Theres something wrong with your speakers and subwoofer then. Youtube has had HQ for awhile now.
