Stimela
Registrace 18. 08. 2021
Stimela a legendary South African afro-fusion band, established by the late self-taught guitarist Raymond (Ray) Phiri who is also the leader of the band since its formation in 1982.He used to dance to his troubadour father’s puppet shows and saved enough money to travel to Johannesburg and started his own band. Phiri, along with Jabu Sibume on bass, Isaac Mtshali on drums and Lloyd Lelosa on keyboards were known as "The Cannibals" the group supplied instrumental accompaniment on recordings of other artists including The Mahotella Queens.They joined forces with vocalist Jacob "Mparanyana" Radabe in 1975, until his untimely death. In 1982, the band changed their name to Stimela, and further expanded with the addition of Thabelo Kgomo & Charlie Ndlovu on keyboards thus began a decade of gold and platinum selling albums.
Their sound has a strong RnB and Gospel influence, a popular fusion of incorporating rock, folk and dance music but that has a fundamental African style at its heart.

Lyrics:
It don't hurt no more
As I'm stealing into the night
With this broken hurt
Won't you please write a letter to yourself
Maybe we'll touch base when I see your thoughts
Won't you please take this time far away
There's too much blood flowing around
Please be saviors child
Won't you please take this child by the hand
Put a smile on the child's face
So scared of those brother
Always feeling so alone
Now won't you please take the time to right the wrong
That was inherited by nest with tube
Say it loud, Say it loud
Say it loud and clear
I made a call to the Missing People's Bureau
I wrote a song I had never sung
The voice on the other side
Sad, Pained and old
They said, Son, There's no time for a second call
Try again tomorrow
So I'm blue, I said
Take my soul, Take my pain
Take my paycheck and all
But please take the child
With a little help from our friends
From my friends in high places
From my friends in even higher places
We can save the child
Why won't you be, Be responsible
Don't take your time to think about the needs of the child
It's their world we're living in
See the world through the eyes of the child
Imagine yourself in the same situation
You got nobody
You know no other
You so lonely, Sad's got a darkness
You were a child once
That makes my lesson day light intimidating
Happiness and grace
Love is a destination
Belonging in inspiration in gentile
See the world through the eyes of a child
(See the world through the eyes of a child)
Take this child away from me, Too much blood for him (See the world through the eyes of a child)
Petrified, Petrified, Protect the child (See the world through the eyes of a child)
(See the world through the eyes of a child)
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
