Pat Shange was the first international singer whose show I attended many years ago in Carnivore Restaurant, Nairobi, Kenya.. Before the show started, he interacted with the multitude without anyone realising that he was the one. He came to me and started chatting with me without I having a clue that he was the one. We talked about South African history which I knew well and he really enjoyed. It was getting late and people were starting to get frustrated that Pat Shange had not started his performance. It was at this time that excused himself, changed and then came on stage to perform. I could not believe it that the person I was chatting with minutes before was Pat Shange the star. His performance was amazing for he gave his best! He started with my favourite song 'Sweet Mama' which was so melodious.Too bad that I will never meet him again on earth. Wherever you are Pat Shange, may good fortunes be with you. Rest in peace my brother. You are not dead, you are just away.
Reminds me when i was still a teernager with my friends playing soccer.not drinking alcohol not smoking cigar. Some of my friends are no more lettheir spirits rest in peace.great music of our time.,❤
Back then I was a kid walking without shoes spending the day hungry. I never knew that in future I will own a Range Rover Velar, a Mercedes GLE and buy houses for cash in £££. Despite my successes today, I would give it up in a heart beat to go back to this era. The economy of my country Zimbabwe was still good. The health sector was good and we had our own currency.
Sad bro....unfortunately, the folks listened to the politicians. They failed the country and convinced you that it was the whites to blame....just like that, our people listened and here we are
Then came 1987 when our village neighbor had a University of Nairobi graduation celebration. In those good old days of Cassette players, the young graduates came with a JVC boombox to the thrill of everyone who cared to know what the city boys had come with. Late in the night, this song was played! man! the poorly lit thatched mud hut was engulfed by the thick cloud of dust as we danced ourselves silly! This song became the inspiration for many of the village boys to do well in school so that we too would become city boys who owned boom boxes.
The first song i danced at my freshers' ball Makerere University more than 35 years ago. It was mindblowing. It was and still is. What a great musician
A hit song of the 80s. Dominated airwaves across Africa during our childhood days. What a song! Brings back nostalgic memories of our era. Reminds me if my childhood days in the streets of Malawi.
I'm guessing you looking back at 2018 now and thinking actually whatever I was going through is nothing compared to 2020 (covid). stay strong stay safe stay blessed
RIP Pat Shange. You lightened my youthful years. I entertain myself up to date with your songs. Legends don't die. They just rest.Continue resting till the resurrection day
Song reminds me of the real Christmas days of the late 80s when we were kids..most of my maternal aunts and uncles , ad dear mum now gone... With us dancing in the middle in our new Xmas clothes with sodas in our hands..😭😭😭😭
This song takes me back to a time when i was a little farmboy ,listing Pat Shange and didnt knowlife will turn out like life todday,in The Republic of South -Africa.
Pat Shange hits days of my youth hard enough . Back in the day when i was growing up, entertainment all through - sweet memories of my youthful days are made of such music . The Afro Pat Shange dancing style together with the drumist and keyboard makes the dance real fun.
I remember when I his photographs from one of his friends named Manoba Xhubeka who was also a journalism student at TSJ Ilala Sharrif Shamba Tanzania. This guy told me much about Pat and his prominance in South Africa from there I began to follow his music. Definitely, a man was a talented artist and among the best musician ever. RIP Pat.
Pat Shange ...His songs were hits when I was a kid in primary school and his songs were played at a night club just a few meters from our house back in 1984, and the club light would be flashing in our house
The first time I saw my Dad cry was when I caught him listening to this song...I asked him y cry Dad...he said he is remembering his friends who died in the 80s and 90s in KAMPALA CITY UGANDA 🇺🇬
When music was music.... Discipline was the thought of every musician making it a family entertainment thing. Nowdays you have to have remote in your hand.... Anything can happen , indiscipline is the order of the day in our music industry..... Rip patshange

2023😊😊😊❤❤
When everything is gone music stays that's my best
We are bankrupt with adjectives to mention all about him. My favorite song "Am not a Casanova"
If south African music will rise above those days I tell you that will be with some bit of juju
When I was a kid, some good times when this song was a hit. Those who grew up in Zim later don’t know what they missed.
In 80s song by then I was primary school good memory for me others.
Our days lovely and healthy music
His the the best . Gentle voice...
Yester year days were indeed sweet with such kind of very sweet music loo!!!
His songs brought joy to Zimbabwe in the 80s and we really enjoyed his music
❤❤ am enjoying this song
Those were beautiful eighties. Never forgotten.
Back when life was simple
He was one of the best of the best
Wow,,,,when life was so innocent with no third wave things,,,,,,May your soul R.I.P Pat Shange
It was pure entertainment in 80's unlike these days where stardom is obsessed with Illuminati

One of my favourites artists and Thisha Nzunza.
