[540wings]

OHH good times are gone, but we can listern to the music and view the perfomance that is good I take off my hat for YOUTUBE for a wonderful work. I am miles and miles from South Africa buy having advanced technology I am at home away from home Kwa-Thema Civic Center 20yrs ago. Ray is out of this world -very dramatic.

[ChrWedege]

This song is so great that it brings tears to my eyes.

I miss Africa..

Thanks for sharing..

[Sellob100]

Stimela rocks. back in da days

[chartonybobo]

The Best

[kweencessX]

My mother loves this man. I remember the first time I head this song; when life was good back in Africa, my mother happy and singing along to this at the wheel. And now I love him too. He's on the list with the great Salif Keita, the beautiful Brenda, legendary Oliva Mtukudzi, tremendous Hugh Masekela. <3

[cyaya3500]

Stimela has allways inpsired me they will live forever Ray Phiri u 'll be a legend bro..

[midnitexpress2008]

great artist of all times...love him

[tumimok]

Great, expect a new album in august!

[zuluamuse]

Wonderful rich voice! It seems almost as if Dave Mathews was influenced by Ray Phiri unconsciously, or unconsciously I do not know. Listen to the beginning riffs! But I can tell you something that many in the USA do not know, Dave Mathews was born South African.

[2000S3000E]

I didn't know Dave Matthews was from South Africa. Thanks for sharing!

[2000S3000E]

Ray was quite the character. I never really understood why his music was liked because I was quite young then but now I appreciate it. Thanks for posting!

[mabiribobi]

I remember listening to this song when I was kid in Zim and I have been a Ray Phiri fan since then.Thanks to whoever uploaded .

[libby0852]

what is ray phiri doing these days?

[MisterKamikazi]

I googled him not too long ago and found some article about him being involved in a serious car accident. The article was dated quite a few years ago and wasn't able to find anything else out.

[phakajuju]

i heard he was perfoming this monday for Africa day. is it true?

[libby0852]

phakajuju, if u find out anything more about ray, please let me know. i am a big fan of his, since i first heard him in graceland album, also bathiki kumalo.

[sthethusini]

its hard to believe that some people have negative words to utter towards one of the greatest mzantsi's talent. I am proud and grateful for all our talent be it Nana ,Ray ,Busi,Jabu ... goodness we have so many - just enjoy ,no need to sour the fruits of our beloved stars and ofcourse snubblebunny ,grow up ! only in school you can boast about 'my daddy is better than your daddy..'

[kachaso]

[lindiwenhl]

[afansi]

This is from the legendary Market Theatre show, isn't it?

The versions of Sishovingolovani and Highland Drifter at that show were really inspiring.

I'd love to watch them on You Tube.

[zzenzzele]

South Africa, woza Mzantsi! Good old eighties, rember those parties, women, etc. Oh my God.

[hearmeoutyajahesh]
