Dalienst et Franco's TPOK Jazz - Bina Na Ngai Na Respect

[terguesh]

dalienst t'es très fort

[geoffreyolum]

This is one of the best works of the group ei yawa, funtastic!

[zambia50]

A lot of these shows were recorded in the television studios in Kinshasa and you were not allowed to get up and dance.I saw Choc Stars there and can you imagine how hard it was not to dance.

[oeokosko]

@zambia50 It must have been fantastic to have been able to see these shows live in the studio!

[JonesDolla]

If you are a Luo, then at some point you probably sang after nyambula: "nyathina onge pacho". Wish we had the lyrics and their correct translation. Till them, I'm enjoying the music and using my own made-up lyrics as necessary.

[JonesDolla]

I wish I was in the audience. They are just sitting there, like blocks. What a waste!

[MrKhaunya]

@JonesDolla Very unkind of them.They were like a hyena that lives in sugar plantation but its not aware that sugarcane is sooo sweet

[kigumba777]

Nostalgia par excellence!

[Blaise2870]

A vous tous. il faut pas tjr comparer la music de l'ancien temps et d'aujourd'hui. La majorite de nos vieux mouront pauvres. Mais a cause de mabanga de werra, jb, Koffi et autre menent une bonne vie ces vieus. Tokomi na monde ya business. Mabanga ezosala bazala. Ou est josky? qu'est ce qu'il a? A lors qu'un musicien comme lui devriait etre riche. Merci Koffi. Meme je t'aime etant homme. Mais etant que musicien tu es parmi les grands.

[divakatende]

@Blaise2870 il n'est pas question ici de business ou pas, mais de qualité de la musi.. ce ne sont pas les " mabanga" qui font d'un musicien ce qu'il est mais sa capacité à faire ou non de la bonne musique. Ceux d'aujourd'hui m^me s'ils semblent se contenter de ces cris; à la longue, ils n'en vivront pas, et leur musique disparaitra aussi vite. Alors que la musique de ces vieux comme tu dis est intemporelle... le plus important pour nos musiciens c'est qu'ils se fassent enregistrer à la SACEM..

[danielchristien1]

Thank you very much for placing this wonderful song!! Too beautiful to be true.

[kisumu07]

can somebody pliz send a Video of this Song with the whole translation? that would be nice,coz i really like Dalienst and his super Voice.

[hatchepsud]

Diese Musik ist einfach der Hammer! Ich hörte sie vor 25 Jahren im Radio von La voix du Zaire Und jetzt bei YouTube. Gigantisch

[kairitukega]

Absolutely!!

[naidamu]

..absolutely one of the best sung by Dalienst, (secondly only to Mouzi in my book)...and to listen to the teasing Franco's solo guitar licks in the background, this is the way rumba was supposed to be played and sung

[yakwetu]

hina nasye nende respect !! For those who grasp that lugha.

[oukorege]

@naidamu my brother where do you place Mamie Zou in your book

[afansi]

I wish Dalienst was better known - this is truly a classic.

[0674513]

La musique du congo est évanouis, faute de manque des vrais musiciens. Il ya aujourdhui de voyous, topsico, qui dans la plupart n'ont aucune notion de ce qu'est la musique, de ce que la bonne musique peut apporter dans l'âme des auditeurs.

[pro818]

T'es un peu trop dur.

Tu veux me dire qu'aucune chanson de Ferre,Kabose,Karmapa,Koffi,Fal­ly ,BCBG ou WMM ne t'a fait fremir de l'interieur .

Come on Man

[goyave25]

Je suis de ton avis .Aujourd´hui il ya que des mabanga et des cris .

[larryboy1995]

Cheza na mimi kwa heshima....I dont think swahili (or anything other than the original) would do justice to it!

[SIKONGE]

Mkuu hiyo ndiyo maana yake. Dance with me with respect. I just received the CDs of Franco & TP OK Jazz. I love this music.

[yakwetu]

To our friends in DRC. Kindly avail books to enable some of us to learn the basics of Lingala language. Where can I find the OAU book "Yekola Lingala"

[Paulinmut]

Swahili ou pas, c'est la voix incomparable de Dalienst qui fait la difference.

[kasili001]

Thanks alot. It is an electrifying hit. At one time, I heard the Kiswahili version of the song and appreciated the message.

Ahsante sana. Endelea hivyo.

[Msbea345]

where can i listen to the swahili version of this song?

[makumbele]

Yes, una swahili version? I would like to listen it.

[bahwenge]

wheres the swahili version ( youtube?)

[AboubacarSiddikh]

There is NO Swahili version of this that Dalienst had anything to do with. He surely would have mentioned that to us, because he did make a point pointing out to us there are actually three studio recordings of Liyanzi Ekoti Ngai Na Motema (Munsi).

[yakwetu]

tafadhali, can you upload the swahili version of the song.

[tekudimambo]

Sa c et la music, sans ba betise oyo ba musicien ya lelo bazo yamba...they use to talk about real love and real life situation...mais maintenant tout se qu on entend c et mama pessa sima, kotisa bimisa, et lopele...mais qu est il arrive a notre music, la bonne music de no pere...mawa...Franko tu as cree un empire que nos generations ont detrui...repose en paix

[zire100]

je suis d'accord avec toi, mais même Franco a aussi son côté obscure. si tu écoutes la chanson "helene" Franco fait comme voire pire que les jeunes d'aujourdhui.déjà à son temps, il a même fait dansé ses danseuses en topless(seins-nus) lors d'un concert.bien entendu celà n'enlève en rien le fait qu'il reste un Grand de notre musique.

[Msbea123]

This song reminds me of a wonderful time in my life......Good times are hard to come by. Thanks

[kalidobo]

Oh, the good old days!!!!

[maliazmu]

great song, it's remenber me my childhood and my mother who loved this song!!!!!!thanks.

[easare]

I love TP OK and Franco and monsoir Racharuex. Can someone please post the tune which I think had the lines "Dance dance hee, African TP connection..." it was a wild dance tune and I remenber dancing to it but can not find it any where. My dad used to sing with these guys in the 60s. Awesome music. RIP Franco.

ayaya

[fidkab]

Une dame dit:"Je suis venue seulement me réjouir en écoutant et dansant la musique du TP OK Jazz. Alors, cher monsieur danse et respecte-moi. Arrête d'étaler tes titres, arrête de me réfiler ton adresse, car je suis mariée. A cause de toi, je danse à contretemps. J'ai accepté ton bonjour, j'ai accedé à ton invitation pour danser, mais bina na nga malembe"

[mznjpearl]

i love dis song

[pwakhung]

I love it threeeee.....!!This is when music was real music and musicians were naturally designed to sing! Music was from the depth in their flesh and bones and not from their pockets.

[gitauwamuiruri]

[chasoh]

One great hit. Reminds me of my childhood days in the early and mid 80's. This was the greatest band ever assembled in African soil. His music will live forever.

[Otenga]

October 2007 is dedicated to Ngoma50!!

[viboko]

da song is too good can somone look for trensempoli. a song by franco plz.

[kindu2006]

okay, i will put tres impoli for you, but it will be audio only

[laceejoe]

can someone kindly interpret the first part of this this song for me. I love lingala music but i can not understand a word and i am so frustrated right now coz i have no clue what this beautiful song is really about. what does Makambo mean? what does lisusu mean? Please help.

[Ngoma50]

A woman goes dancing to enjoy herself, and a man has his eyes locked on her, because of her beauty and the way she is dressed. She is saying that this man does not inquire who is responsible for her good upkeep. (another man). She is going to respect herself and be loyal to her man, and anybody dancing with her must do so with respect. makambo means trouble. Lisusu means, other, another or, else. It depends on the context. I hope this helped.

[laceejoe]

Thank you so much my dear....this helps alot....Thank you..thank you

[ligorodo]

Ah nostalgie...lorsque tu nous tiens!!!!

[KALLEROGERS]

[rumbada694]

[buashraf]

Franco was the man! But things do come to end! He passed on but left with us his sweet sounds. I miss Ntesa Dalienst´s voice. May they RIP!!

[rumbada694]

Gracia por tener este disco, llevaba tiempo buscándolo, creo que Franco es el mejor cantante africano.Me gusta su música!!!

[kindu2006]

THIS IS DA SONG! when my parents dance to this song, my GOD! lol. THANK U SO MUCH, my brother. I would want to meet you one day so wen we can do a documentary on Franco's life and music, as one of the the greatest musisicans of the 20th century.

[Nats3]
