As the great South African singer Zolani Mahola said, Johnny Clegg didn't just write great songs, he wrote anthems -- anthems that changed a nation by building bridges that united South Africa's many cultures and brought respect to South Africa's indigenous people. That is why he was given the praise name "Skeyi" -- one who can hold things together. This is one of his most beautiful anthems, both in its musicality, and for all it says (about needing to be connected to something larger and meaningful than just oneself), and all it evokes about the many beauties of Africa and its people. Johnny Clegg was a great philosopher-poet as well as humanitarian. You boys more than do justice to all this great anthem is and to the legend who wrote it. RIP Johnny.
I am a nany and the child i look for has seen ur choir she was in northfields choir and she told me that she really injoyed seeing u guys and that it was beautifuly amazing
I believe music can heal all wounds. You boys give joy and are healers for the whole world. Thanks, mercy, baie dankie and all the languages I don't speak, dank je wel!
All of them are all in perfect rhythm with the beat of the music . They feel the music in them just like I did . Happy Christmas and a Happy New year 2024. From I❤
The lyrics evoke a journey of self-discovery and spiritual connection set against the backdrop of the African landscape. The song underscores the need for individual resilience ("Every man has to be his own savior") but also emphasizes the desire for a guiding force or "great heart" for support and companionship. The recurring references to the African sky, stars, wind, and savanna symbolize vastness, freedom, and a connection to nature and ancestry. "Your life is a story like the wind" suggests that life is transient, ever-changing, and deeply connected to the world around us. The repeated line, "I'm searching for the spirit of the great heart," emphasizes the quest for understanding, purpose, and a deep, spiritual bond, while phrases in native African language (e.g., "Guka 'mzimba, sala 'nhliziyo") enhance the cultural and ancestral connection, grounding the song in its African roots.
