for muiri somone was dying telling mommynimerogwa He asks his mother to open her eyes. The sorcerer is entering into the family to eliminate everyone. Bavon Marie Marie has gone, if mother doesn't take care they'll all go, and you will be left. And who is going to bury you? That's what Franco was saying to his mother. So: "Kimpa Kisangameni".... so, "sorcery has entered into the family / there are people that want to hurt us / Mama, open your eyes / if not, you will be left on earth, with no sons to bury you". Wasn't this the best ever? That confused me a bit, as TP OK Jazz did a track by that name – Momi - a classical sentimental stuff. Momi ye momi.... yaka tobalana... Moyen ‘ikeleveee’..... If that song doesn’t melt your soul, check if Pharaoh features somewhere in your lineage! Isuni yilu yi maa me muyo - ni Mbisuu

tukubali tu watu mayi and josky were just too much if your girl asks you stupid questions like do you love her, just sing for her this song still say this is the best lineup for vocals ever in africa. Wuta Mayi, Josky Kiambukuta, Ndombe Opetum. Jose: If I make it through this thug life, I'll see you one day. The Lord is the only way to stop the hurt.

Le poet simaro lutumba composed this song at hte behest of his sister who was saddened by the sudden loss of her close friend (i am not sure but i presume her name is Bowule) as the song ends Malage asks Bowule to greet some people in the afterworld such as his grandpa na wengineo

alma wrote:Once I learned about wazua, I'll keep my posts to my friends. PERIOD.. Ambia mimi rafiki yangu. Hii ni poa? Na utoe yako this song was composed by le poet simaro lutumba, it talks abouts Mandola, a once rich man who had many hangers on in his hey day however they all disappeared once he went broke. In a cruel twist of fate, the same predicament befell Djo Mpoyi during his last days on earth, terribly ailing and with no friends to turn to, his words came back to haunt him. the solo guitar for this song was done by Thierry Mantuika, i will explain later why.

Wasn't this the best ever? Actually this was one of the only songs Franco did in his native kikongo (the other being the chorus to Ndaya by Mpudi Decca) I believe it was sung after Bavon perished in a road accident and rumours started circulating that Franco was the cause due to sorcery

As for the new year. This is Asumani To me the second best TPOK line up. If only Youlou Mabiala had stayed on the team. but we get the youngster Watu Mayi and that wasn't a bad thing at all. By this time if the leaving of Sam Mangwana hadn't killed Franco, then we know he was the best. Youlou left later. My personal favourite was the nigger dancing. Michèl Boyibanda has always been my favorite. I hope one day, Kenyan bands can have lyrics like this ones, not that upus of nameless Asumani, you are more jealous than a flie = nzinzi (A flie is everywhere, following everywhere) You can't even hear the name of another woman in my mouth Or the name of my brother-in-law Without getting angry a me I feel like dying Happy new year This were the songs suuuung in 1975 Jose: If I make it through this thug life, I'll see you one day. The Lord is the only way to stop the hurt.
