[pm12charlier]

there is truly no people on earth that can sing with such passion energy and life as the African people

[mrrem98]

I mean how the sound and the energy is powerful, regardless of your religious stance.I am an atheist, btw, but I have no problem enjoying this beautiful music.

[mrrem98]

Amazing that you can create such beautiful and powerful music using only your voices!

[cshockley10]

[cefinow]

whoa... that's pretty. thanks for the upload

[spiderbataqua]

Beautiful and Amazing! Sincere, Simple and Pure!! Just like Christ Jesus!! Definitely it must be received as a fragrance in Heaven!! Unlike the Pseudo Christian singers that only give concert by charging! Apostasy!

[babybunnyberry]

This is absolutely amazing! Please do record more!

[bokemesmeerkees]

can anybody help me where I can get the sheet music or songbook for this style of authentic african songs. The sound is very "down to earth" and inspiring. The most songbooks and sheet music I can find are totally different.. I can't seem to find my trail! Please help someone :)

[REBAILYUS1]

[Ellykins79]

[crissyflexibility]

[MsJaneti]

[kidkustom]

Hey, can anyone recommend any albums / groups with this kind of accapella music?

[kevv58]

[Liljamoon]

I love this kind of African music. I'm listening to this song almost every day :)

[amariiah]

applaudes very very good

[AtomicSnoCat]

[gwhtf4]

HEAVENLY...

[nganya1975]

Surely, there is none other who deserves to be praised other than the Lord Jesus for saving us from sicknesses, wars and giving us everlasting life. Tikuwonga nadi.... wanyithu wakuluta yumozayumoza kweni ise mwatisunga naumoyo wandanda - tikuwonga, tawonga Fumu yewo.. A song of praise to the Lord in appreciation of the gift of life as many have lost their lives but God continues to take care of us. Positani tina toteleti tikumatikumbutsa kumudzi. Tawonga Ehh Khristu!!!

[BlondeWhiteBoy]

jesus freak!!! I'm a devout athiest y anti-religionist who sh!ts on your praise to an imaginary being. If man didn't exist, neither would god.

[HefflaSWE]

Yeah right. The same God that let millions of people die every year from simple preventable diseases. No, the fate of mankind is in our hands, not Gods

[keltic07]

Well... and also the animals of the earth and stuff from the earth that feeds, the wind in the air that can be like a simple breeze or a "tormenta" or hurricane and other natural phenomon that can easily destroy civilization as well as cosmological phenomon like the possibiltiy of an asteroid hitting the earth... in the end of the day we humans really aren´t as responbile for ourselves as we like to think. But whateve just my humble opinion

[HefflaSWE]

hmm, that kinda makes sence...

[DiaSab08]

Its people like you that deforms buildings like twin towers. Why dont you take your negatives somewhere

[HefflaSWE]

oh shut up

[silver938]

african!!and proud!!

[victorlamont05]

Wow, what a great rehearsal.

[Iris054]

Lovely! Thanks so much for this. They could do an album, and a tour.

[qminusis]

Great music. More of this please ...

[jemhson]

i love this kind of music... africans have good voices... all of them...

[Azizip17]

That accapella singing is so beautiful! I wish that someone who speaks that language [which language is it btw?] would post a translation of the words. I also wish that CDs and videos of this choir would be produced to help support the choir and their families & community. It's great to hear the music for free, but it would be even better to give something back to this choir after hearing the music.

[hfrankien]

black people have such a beautiful rich quality to their voices. i would looove to be able to sing in a choir like this. the harmonies are so beautiful

[zubbi1990]

very good l sing with you lam a zambian but l undestad chichewa

[misschrisss2010]

My conductor went on a missions trip to Africa. He brought back recordings for us to listen to and I'm so amazed by their sound. The sopranos have no limit to their range :]

We are performing an African song in our next concert, my conductor told us not to be so "white" in our movements haha I hope to do them proud :]

[glosstoss]

these kids outperform any of the highest trained european choirs. i am european-american. long live my african ancestors! i hope to return there one day.

[VeritasG3SG1]

I really like this Sound. Here in Germany we don´t have such Kind of Chorus, I wish we had.....

[vanm93]

what kinda chorus do u have there? and yea i really like their language

[VeritasG3SG1]

Well, we have Acapella and Churchchorus, but that´s not the same like this one.

[robyn2288]

name of the song?

[cykuck250]

Tawonga. I'm not really a Tumbuka speaker, but I'm pretty sure it means 'We should be thankful' or 'thank you'

[cykuck250]

Tawonga. I'm not really a Tumbuka speaker, but I'm pretty sure it means 'We should be thankful' or 'thank you'

[maalani83]

VINAKA from Fiji! Sons of East Africa!

[Thokozire]

Indeed, it is good to give thanks to the Lord for all his mercies upon our lives.

Thanking God for all he has done and is still doing in our lives is the main message in this song

[Addictiv3]

[Thokozire]

Chiuta'mwe mtaski withu palijeso munthu unyake wakwenera kuwongeka.Siyawonga aaa

[Araraquara]

[BicolBandit]

African has such tight harmonies, I love it. Western music can do the same but somehow it just isn't as enjoyable, it's too mechanical and almost too technically sound.

[BicolBandit]

African music*

[taffysnoangel]

i can listen to these kind of vocals all day i love the sounds even if i dont understand the words.

[marciabiancaTay]

I love the song even if i dont understand

[cykuck250]

The chorus of the song, Tawonga means, "Thank you".
