  • She's hot !!!!!!!

  • I doubt the people would be happy to see the train, as it was taking them to Rhodesia to work in the mines, not really what I would connect with a happy memory. Good job nonetheless!

  • I'm not a particular fan of the theatrical interpretation of the song, however the choir performed it rather well nonetheless. Well done.

  • bacana!

  • Like others, I prefer the "Drakensberg" rendering. But this was sweet, and was different. It has encouraged me to look them up on the web. It was sung by Zulus in Natal before they travelled on the trains for their stints in the Gold Mines. The miners tried to get more local tribes but the work was hard so they had to move further afield and ship in the Zulus.

  • yeahh voena .(:

    haha .

    i 'm excited to perform it tomorrow .

  • Sure this choir is not south african not even black but I like how they did not like Lady Mambazo ofcourse but they did they best

  • malie kau palangis..cheehoo..LOL

  • hahah mean ae?!

  • Actually, VOENA is made up of children representing over 35 races and cultures, and diversity is what they're all about, so I agree that it's a beautiful song for all cultures and ethnicities to share. Peace is open to everyone!

  • haha omigod we r so cool!!!! im crackin up!!! its so weird 2 c us like a year ago!!!! we r all so different

  • This arrangement was created by the world renowned Drakensberg Boys Choir of South Africa. It was featured on their 2006 native songs DVD. They've been performing it for many years. The DVD was recorded a week after recording a Carmina Burana DVD - the DBC is far better known for its classical works. Songs from both DVDs are found on You Tube. More than 100 boys between 8 and 15 years old live at the choir school in the Drakensberg Mountains (Dragon Mountains).

  • Do you have any Youtube links for this Boys Choir?

  • Use the search bar above. There are about a dozen or so videos on You Tube.

  • are they south african?

  • The song is South African - obviously! - but the choir is a multi-ethnic choir from California. They sing in over 20 different languages!

  • I enjoyed this, thanks for posting it. I'd like to know a bit more about the choir and the concert. (I'm South African)

  • thank you, truly inspiring!
