    Ngqawana once said "Music is still there when the sun goes down. It provides energy for a spiritually depleted universe.” This masterpiece awakens archaic memories. It is a connector between the past, the present and the future. 🔥

    Takes me back Sunday evening, preparing for school the next day and this song playing on Ukhozi fm. Use to think less of this music, right now it’s makes so much sense. 👌👌👌👌

    Masterpiece i remember growing in the rural area of small eastern cape town by name of flagstaff, i used to listen to a small 4volt battery powered radio and the first time i had this song was on a chilly 2009 sunday night in ukhozi fm's mandla mdletshe show i was reading "The Red Blanket by Nellie De Swart" at that time. Since then i have always been a big fan of Bra Zim.

    i always managed to change peoples perception of those who didnt love jazz by taking them to a live jazz performance !!! After they see, hear and feel all the instruments bringing the song together... jazz becomes one of their loved music. !!!!!!

      @@MrLisaFischer I'm very curious to undesrtand which part of the comment is tribalist? Because he didn't say that Xhosa people are the best jazz composers, he just said they were good. Read with comprehension before you start catching feelings over "rubbish"'.

      I played this at work in the morning @ 1:45 one of my co-workers asked me to switch it off. He said that whistle is what they use to wake them up when he went to initiation school for traditional healing. Yho mtase his ancestors were getting evoked with this song. Yho it really messed him up a bit.

      It's a celebratory piece&song of rejoice when Xhosa boys come back from the mountain after undergoing initiation/right of passage to manhood,,,,,,in another context it's a call to arms to defend the nationhood,,,,,,qula means pick up the sticks/weapons of self defence &be ready to defend ones nation,,,,,,,deep down 😮it's just a song of celebration&preparedness,,,,,,,very meaningful/abstruct/deep,,hope I'm making sense to u,,us Xhosas it's easy to comprehend&explain it
