Winky D at the legend's funeral wake was on point when he humbly said his generation can not fit into Tuku's shoes even if they combined forces, they simply need to have their own shoes. This was a class act so effortless yet so detailed, the repertoire, the choreography, the subtle underlying drama, the captivating dances, mellowing down and up, awesome!!
The language is shona, a Bantu language spoken in zimbabwe,southern Africa.He is pleading with Hossana( Jesus Christ) He has faced so many challenges and wants Hossana to intervene.He can"t take the challenges anymore,He doesn't want them.Thats basically about the song.
Ha.. they were intentionally elaborate in the performance of the song. Instruments and sound on point. One of the best performances from the Legend. Song for me has a tinge of nostalgia in me as I know it from the original acoustic version of the 70s right through to the mixes. Here Tuku and crew sang from the heart. Performance awesome. Thank you NPR music!
