Grand morceau de Rumba

[tomaluta]

kitoko trop

[kachaso]

[keyapatrick]

listen to the sweet voices they truly blend cant tell the difference

[sdenge1]

I really love this song more so for it's rythmic arrangements. Franco was way ahead of his time

[regmike68]

SERIOUSLY ... Can someone DISLIKE this song... Its unfair to the deaf.. you shouldn't have been given ears. honestly.. this is the sh*t! and i mean it in the best possible manner... I have no words when it comes to the combo of Franco and Madilu..theirs was a vocal harmony made in heaven ... period.. well two!

[nbtz21]

ah ah ql chason je a mon papa ki nous a quite ah ah ql epoque ahah la vie repose en paix franco il parti avec sa musique ah kin

[wbtjob]

[MrCastel7]

c'est la genèse de la rumba que de beaux souvenirs

[ngioche]

This must be the best I rewind and rewind this classic in my car all the time, ohhhh master. You were the master!

[riodany1]

Never had a lovely vocalist like Madilu, he was in a class of his own. Let them enjoy heaven. DKiwanuka.

[ntaba1996]

Je ne peu pas imaginé que j'avais 24 ans à l'époque , comme le temps passe vite , oh la belle époque . Merci grand maître que ton âme repose en paix .

[dotgazelle]

mawaa pitié! ça me tue cette chançon!!!

[Xhone2011]

killer track!!1

[jmaviti]

@freddyokello take it easy.when i was growing up i wanted to Zaire to see the man..was then told he died long ago...how sad i was that day!

[tbwanat]

@okodedemai, I bet u asked otshudi to translate this piece coz he posted 4 u something in French. This song is entirely in Lingala; not French. I speak a little Lingala: the master is lamenting about wives I guess

[emMUFC25]

I cannot believe the genious of this man

[keyapatrick]

listen to that guitar, it realy is killin me softly

[KIHOUBA]

Merci franco et madilu system,reposez en paix

roland fifi

[bijourex]

woishe i was only 1 when he died!! i grew up listening to his songs now am 28...waaaah nimetoka mbali!!

[bwangusi]

I have no words to describe this great muscian.

[gary1966able]

i will love this song until eternity

[okodedemai]

The chilly hill of Wesu in Taita Lands..Some clear liquids in hand . The other carefully negotiating brisky dance step in front of a fire place...........i wished christ would retrurn ..i was so happy..

[otshudi]

@okodedemai  mon frere va dans l'amazone et tu trouvera tout plus encore les dvd's

[okodedemai]

@otshudi u give a challenge to learn this lannguage...plz start me off by a translation of this piece..

[tbwanat]

Mes chers amis, je cherche le livre "L'assassinat de Lumumba" par de Witte. Anyone knows how n where I can get it in Kenya? Either in English or French bt preference 2 th French version coz I read a review tht th English translation was edited n re-edited by Capitalist Anglo-American brains. Anyone?

[lovelyne5]

Mabala toko balaka na mokili

[siti1ca]

@lovelyne5 okolinga mwasi, mwasi aza na bato!

[zuluman2008]

@lovelyne5 pliz could you translate the lyrics to english if possible..i can get few words..thnx

[Mobaliyab]

@zuluman2008 when a wedding day come,families and friends are invited,we call them for advice,or to congrats us,but some of them they came just to see how is the girl or how is the man that you gonna maried,so sometimes after a party when it s time to open gifts,you gonna find some poison gifts,mens giving contacts numbers to your new wife or some such of things,generally it cames from the man to who your wife said NO once upon the time before you guys mate each other

[Mobaliyab]

@zuluman2008 something else it's about girls,girls are trouble makers,if in the futur you just break with your wife,the fist things she is gonna find a single lady as the friend ,then they gonna start hanging out often going to the clubs,bars,this bad single lady will go with here in some bad place,then meetings bad boys,so be carfull ,

I THINK u have few words at least,i speak french not english but i hope it gonna help you man,bye

[pierrre23]

This was the real muzic..... thx to God for Franco...you live in us man!!

[tbwanat]

This song is so true n sweet till someone trembles n mistakenly clicks at the 'dislike' button. Hey my pple, did who a th vocalists here? n given tht Simaro wrote most of Franco's songs did he hav any involvement in this master-piece?

[chiwherure]

@tbwanat Thi is Franco's composition and no Franco wrote most songs (compositions of TP OK) not Simaro as you may believe. As good as Simaro is a good composer Franco was way ahead. And have you noticed that of the 40+ OK jazz members none have ever found that creativity they had when the Master was around even Lutumba himself.

[MrOsongo]

Mayie Uuuuwi! Nimekufa wuod Omboga yawa! What Franco is singing about here once happened to me once in my life! Wuololo yaye Aben wuod gi Aol Ja Bay! Ase tho maka ung'i une!

[TheTrankiloooo]

na leliii aaaahhh maitre soki ozalaki !

[Ogbonnanta]

Franco, Laa nke oma [RIP]. The Igbos will forever love you.

[Loluk1305]

La voix de Madilu qui interpretait ainsi pour la premire fois une chanson aux cotes de Luambo Franco

[nhangrangu]

the great one and only franco

[sangoyasika]

Une de merveille et grand tube la musique congolaise

Luambo a travers cette chanson a revolutionné la musique congolaise

[FistonBonza]

Somo trop, fait penser à mon père, Stany Bonza

[tbwanat]

Je cherche pas la traduction car la voix me volle et m'amene dans un vol incroyable!

[tbwanat]

I still cant choose which is my best piece frm Franco. Toutes ses musiques sont vraiement magnifiques. mmmwah. je les aime bcp!

[memwana]

Classic!! African giants at their very best! Thanks for posting this African GEM!

[babyfacemonk1968]

Yaa, to all former UNLA'S in Uganda, we send you this song.

[ThaBaba1]

Franco eeeh Franco what can I say. words are not enough to describe this talent

[ambusof]

Very sweeet!!!

[Zappowx]

translation please someone ! i love the song anyway

[ApilOdokotek]

@Zappowx, here: " Marriage ho marriage. The marriage of Kinsahasa, you meet a woman for the first time and love her. But she does not notice. Women realise late that you truely loved them when you are already in someone's elses arms. the paradox of love is that the heart longs for what it loves but also rejects what it loves. The first time I met this woman I asked her name, and she said her name is "NO"! I persisted,but she would not have it. She said I am a married man. She wants her own man".

[SuperSelemani]

@ApilOdokotek

...the paradox of love is that the heart longs for what it loves but also rejects what it loves... Yes, I like its

Please give me a favor, can you explain more about this paradox of love. This will help me understand what Franco is saying. Safi sana!

[SuperSelemani]

@ApilOdokotek

[ethanol208]

Speechless........just classic

[sergemira]

[llaloi]

Grand Maître et Système, RIP à vous, je vous écoute, je vois l'âge d'or de ce Grand Zaïre auquel vous avez beaucoup donné. God bless....

[kenoebbs]

Reminds me of Railways Junior club Eldoret Kenya.

[MrSinafungu]

ooh nani anawza kutoa tafsiri ya wimbo huu , mzuri umetulia na unavuta  hisia

[sergelove01]

ba vraie music

[tchywallace]

ce serait vraiment intéressant d'avoir les traductions des titres du prophète FRANCO pour nous tous qui ne comprenons pas le lingala. SVP

TCHINA YAO

[orangekush3]

@tchywallace cette chanson parle d'un marriage qui ce passe au kinshasa....libala (veut dire marriage), en bref la chanson parle d'une femme (mwasi) qui refuse le marriage (libala) et les troubles qui suivent. tiens voici quelque mots en lingala qui t'aidera a comprendre: libala=marriage, mokolo libala = jour du marriage, mwasi=femme, muana=enfant, mosusu=autre, mokili=monde, mosala=travail, emploi, kolinga=aimer/amour...le lingala est une langue tres facile a apprendre....

[fgumo]

This is also one of the songs that made Madilu System very famous. Just listen him picking over from Franco @ 03:55

[Zappowx]

Inanikumbusha maziwafootball club 80s

[Zappowx]

reminds me of maziwa football club 1980s Nairobi

[frottage54]

Absolutely the best. I'd give it an eight if I knew how to. Magical.

[chiwherure]

@frottage54 Just an eight?.

[babyfacemonk1968]

@ their best the two men,lovely song.

[Mokonziification]

@freddyokello

Ofandaka na Eastleigh?

[Mokonziification]

Vendredi8, cette chanson est 28 minutes longue et je crois il faudrait 3 parties pour la completer sur Youtube...Tous ceux qui habitent Eastleigh ou les environs peuvent me contacter s'ils veulent enrichir leur repertoir...

[Vendredi8]

@Mokonziification ...Merci beaucoup mon cher ami. Je savais très bien que cette chanson n'était pas complète à 10 minutes 54 secondes. Je ferai un effort pour te contacter afin d'enrichir mon répertoire. J'aime beaucoup les oldies de mon pays...surtout ceux du Grand Maitre Franco.

[madiyaa]

best of the best

[ITIMITE]

Wow R.I.P Grand maitre Franco, this music remind sooo much of my father and the good oldies.

[gsikolia]

absolutely fantastic...viva OK

[siti1ca]

le meuiller chancon na histoire du monde

[douallaetingue]

Qu'est ce qu'il vous faut pour traduire tous ces morceaux de Franco en français. On serait mieux imprégné des paroles de ce grand observateur de la société zaîroise et même africaine.

[Mokonziification]

@douallaetingue

La traduction est possible mais je pense la vraie signification des paroles se perdrait dans la traduction. Mais si t'as besoin de la traduction d'une chanson Lingala-Francais contacte moi et je pourrai t'aider dans la mesure du possible

[Hilaude]

@douallaetingue il chante: Il ya bcp de problem qd ns ns engageons a ns a ns marier Tu aimes une fam mais elle doute tjr de ton amour alor k tu las aime le 1er jour k tu las vu. les fam se rende cpte k tu laimais tjr tard, qd tu es ds les mains d'une autre. Ici bas il est dit k le coeur aim celui kil v, si on ntaime pas croise les mains. au jour du mariage, les fam vienne voir la fam avec ki tu t'es marie avec, les hoes v1n pr voir lhom

[Hilaude]

@douallaetingue suite. Les fam vienn pr tenter le marie et les hoes pr tenter la marieetout cela pour creer le desordre. ce pr la 1ere fois k 1fam me dise non, elle me dit k elle ne veut pas etre avec le marie d'autrui, elle veut le marie a elle kelle p voir tt le tps. elle ne veut pa un hoe ki vien pr ossi partir. J'ai voulu lui donner l'argent, elle me dit je v lui tendre de pieges k je garde ca pr la fois prochaine

[Hilaude]

suite2. J'ai tjr constaste k qd une fam se separe avec son marie, elle prend com amie une celibataire endurcie, celle ci va faire la faire promener ds tous les coins et recoins de la ville, elle va la faire entrer ds tous les bars et boites pourtant ce 1fam mariee peut se reconcillier son mari demain. le mariage na pas dure, la fam est ds les mains de l'invite. Le jr du mariage parmi les cadeau k on a donne a ma fam j'ai vu les adress et numero de telefon mm des amis intimes....

[Hilaude]

@douallaetingue J'ai essaye mais rassurez vous k la chansona perdu klk peu de sa profondeur mais vous avez une idee sur le contenue. Bref, la chanson parle des problems ki recontrent les jeunes maries. Le lingala est une langue tres facile. si tu es bantou et parler francais, tu as au moins 60% de Lingala.

[Vendredi8]

Très cher bughativeyron merçi pour ce beau morceau du Grand Maitre. Je suis très ravi de l'écouter. Mais il semble que il est loin d'être fini. Could you please post it en intégralité? Je sais que les chansons du grand Maitre allaient jusqu'à pls de 15 minutes, mais ce grand morceau ne fait que 10.54'

Merci pour tot ce que tu fais pour nous et merci aussi pour poster la totalité de "NON"

[MrOmangash23]

This is one of FRANCO`S hits which made him fame on the world of RUMBA in 1980s without knowing that we would loose him after nine years.LUAMBO you left us but we still love you and your music.Good part of it LUAMBO,we have your voice.Rest in peace Luambo.ONDERI.TX,USA
