[TheBicyclingman]

When I was thirteen my self and my father were at a party and when this song played on the radio I got up and started dancing/singing... after that I was befriended by a lady who loved my dancing, she got me a beer and we talked for a long time - That lady was Brenda Fassie, I didn't know it until later on (She gave me a signed CD and I have a pic at that party with her)

[Chalippon]

I'm a Nigerian but I currently reside in the United States and I must tell u Brenda Fassie is one of the best and brightest stars Mama Africa ever produced. It was very disheartening to learn of ur death but l'm rest assured that u r in a better place now. God bless you soul sister!!! Rest in EVERLASTING PEACE!!!

I am from Switzerland, but I was living in Sierra Leone in 2002 and it was the first time I heard about Brenda Fassie. I just felt in love with her songs and voice ! Then I lived in different places in Africa (South Africa, Ivory Coast, Angola, Senegal, and Eritrea). She was famous not only in South Africa but everywhere in Africa.

R.I.P. Brenda, I love You sooooo much !
