Wow, I never thought Brenda's song went as far as Ethiopia. There has been covers done in Madagascar by different artists: m.ruclips.net/video/PwKZ3AAWKLk/видео.html m.ruclips.net/video/uFVUJGzeNTE/видео.html
We celebrate one of Africa's finest. She died young but will forever be remembered for her impact on music across the continent. Brenda Fassie never dies. GHANA
Thank you, Brenda Fassie, for gifting us with this timeless African anthem. Your spirit lives on through your music, and your legacy will continue to inspire generations.
Its October 2022 this song makes me feel my spirit... it unites us Africans..much love from Kenya I can only imagine how great she was and still is...she died when I was a baby but her songs are making me...I can't explain 😭🥰🥰🥰
Why is this song in all Africans blood? In all our nerve? Why do we shiver when we hear it? Why all these goosebumps? There is only one answer to this… our love to the African heritage, our unity and our strength through all the difficulties we passed and all the sacrifices our ancestors paid to keep our chins up. Long live mama Africa. Love to all my Africans brothers and sisters from 🇪🇹
Listening to this in 2023, reminds me of back home Zimbabwe and this song was played at weddings. Eish man those were the days! Brenda was indeed a superstar and represented all of Africa..much love 🇿🇦🇿🇼
One of my favourite songs of all time!! Vul’indlela wemamgobhozi (Open the gates, Miss Gossip) He unyana wam (My baby boy) Helele uyashada namhlanje (Is getting married today) Vul’indlela wela ma ngiyabuza (Open the gates please) Msuba nomona (Don’t be jealous) Unyana wami uthathile (My son has had a good catch) Bengingazi ngiyombon’umakoti (I never thought I’d see a daughter in law) Unyana wam eh ujongile this time (My son has been accepted (woman said yes)) Makgadi fele usenzo s’cede (Help us finish the ceremony (you are welcome)) Uzemshadweni ngiyashadisa namhlanje (Come to the wedding, I’m taking my son to the altar today) Bebesithi unyana wam lisoka (People said my son is (someone who doesn’t get women)) Bebesithi angeke ashade vul’indlela (People said he would never get married but open the gates)
Growing up as a child in Ghana, we used to love this song though we couldn't understand a word from it. That's the power of a "golden song" the rhythm alone will touch your heart. We're in Sept 2021 and I still love it.
Christian Jay Nwogu We are waiting, except the attrocities. Our LOVE and TRUST for you is diminishing. This is not the South Africa we knew b4 the independence,
7.19.24, Brooklyn, NY. Love her voice and song, which, last year in 2023, I heard it in English and discovered that Ms. Fassi is deceased. Gone too soon, but never forgotten.
I am not South African but my South African friends surprised me by performing a dance to this song on my wedding day, 18 years ago totally changed the atmosphere of our reception. I live in UK. It was electric.
This song will never die. Brenda and Lucky Dube made me love South Africa for real. Growing up I thought Brenda was a Ghanaian because her songs took over the whole northern part of Ghana.

I'm from Ethiopia and this is the music I grow up listening to. I remember listening to Brenda Fassie every morning on the radio before going to school 😭 Ethiopia loves you Brenda Fassie 🖤
It's 2023 and I'm still listening to this song. Being Nigerian and loving this song as a kid, I always wondered what it meant 🤔 I still don't understand it, but I love it 🤗😀❤️ Brenda, you are loved and missed
The story line of this song is about her son getting married, the neighbors were saying his son will never get married so she's saying maRadebe should remove her spectacles 👓 and come to the wedding. Then she tells MaNgobese that she's jealous coz she doesn't have a son, she only has daughters. I hope it makes sense I also loved the song from a young age it's a classic hit. May the Queen 👸 continue resting in peace
I'd really love to know why. I got pretty nostalgic watching it, partly because it reminded me of a movie I watched as a kid on South African apartheid. Is that similar for you? please let me know.
This song makes me emotional...the translation is perfect !!!

2023 je l’écoute encore 🥰🥰🥰 cette chanson lors de mon mariage ne manquera pas d’ailleurs ça sera mon entrée 😊😊😊 je pense fort à mon père en l’écoutant 🥺🥺🥺
When I graduated from nursery school, 1999 Dec wen my mom was still alive we danced for this song. .when I get married I want it to be played this song though
Elle disait aux gens d'être heureux le jour du mariage de son fils ,de ne pas être jalous, qu'elle va prendre le bras son fils en cheminant vers l'autel que même si les gens ont dit qu'il va jamais se marier voilà que le jour de joie arrive ,je crois que en gros c'est ça
That's exactly what it does to you this song is magic you don't understand the words but you want to sing it you don't know how to dance but when this song is being played you get a strange feeling in your body make you want to dance to it
18 Avril 2023 je continue d'écouter ce song alors que lors de sa sortie ma mère n'avais pas en projets de me mettre au monde ♥️♥️♥️ Afrik mon Afrique ♥️♥️♥️♥️🎺🎺🎹🎹
I'm a rapper from Uganda but I grew up listening to Brenda Fassie, I love her so much After watching the translation her lyrics hit me hard R.I.P Legend
As a Nigerian I don't understand the lyrics, but damn this song as well as Wedding Day can't ever get outta my head..... much love Brenda!!🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬 Sad death took you away too soon 💔💔💔
There’s a lot of songs I stoped listening to after I lost my mum. This was her favorite song, anytime I feel sad about her departure I listen to this. It brings back happy memories that makes me feel she’s right beside me.
Here in NY first hearing this in my 62 years and it draws your spirit towards it….the rhythm is as old as time ……and can’t help but think music connects us all! Peace
@@mercyachieng518 Directly translated, she say, "open the way gossipers, stop being jealous. I didn't know I'd get a daughter in law, but my son found her. Mrs Radebe remove those glasses and come to the wedding, as my son is getting married today. They said my son is a liar and he will never get married. Mrs Ngobese you're jealous because you don't have a son, you only have daughters..."
She speaking about this guy. Who she thought the two were found of each other. She even was introduced to guy mother. They were kicking tight for years. All of sudden he marrying a girl he just met. She even in the video telling his mother and whole town what he did. Broke her heart. Yes this sister hear was a good singer. However she died mysteriously jealousy between us African bad.
This is what they called a classic music, you don’t have to understand the language for you to love a wonderful classic song, love you mama bless Africa ❤️❤️❤️😘
20 yrs back we do remember when music was pure and sweat. It reminds me 2002, my mum used to like this song, it makes my tears roll down 😭😭😭😭😭😭 cz she is no more 2002 took her a way from me May her soul rest in peace
She was totally unknown in Latin America. If she would had marketed her songs in this part of the planet shed would be as popular as Madona. What a loss....RIP...Greetings from Venezuela to all her fans....
I'm From Nigeria 🇳🇬 and this is one of my favorite childhood songs, even though i don't understand what shes saying. I can remember listening to this song early morning before leaving for school. Of a truth LEGENDS NEVER DIE, REST ON. ✊
Where are you My South Africans !! We miss you! This is my childhood ... do more music from your culture ! The roots never disappear ... Hello from DR Congo 🇨🇩
Steel watching end 2018 from cameroon 🇨🇲 i was Steel a baby when this song came out. But i remember my Mother used to put this song for me when i cry may my mom's soul rip Brenda's soul too.🇨🇲🇿🇦
Man, started listening to this song all the way in Ghana back in the 90's. MMYY is 10/22 , made a life here in The States and still listen to it every now and then. Reminds me I came from far. Cheers.
I vividly remember seeing Brenda Fassie(Vulindela) on our tiny black and white TV(😂Greatwall TV for those who remember) back in 2002 in my parents small single room. She was a hit in Kenya at the time. Ps.she still is a star.

Elle disait aux gens d'être heureux le jour du mariage de son fils ,de ne pas être jalous, qu'elle va prendre le bras son fils en cheminant vers l'autel que même si les gens ont dit qu'il va jamais se marier voilà que le jour de joie arrive ,je crois que en gros c'est ça
She say hey gossiper step aside my son is getting married today

Sad death took you away too soon 💔💔💔
There’s a lot of songs I stoped listening to after I lost my mum. This was her favorite song, anytime I feel sad about her departure I listen to this. It brings back happy memories that makes me feel she’s right beside me.
God bless
Here in NY first hearing this in my 62 years and it draws your spirit towards it….the rhythm is as old as time ……and can’t help but think music connects us all! Peace
She's long gone but she was an extraordinary musician and entertainer.Time magazine called her the Madonna of the townships.Enjoy the music 👌🏾🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦.
It's Dec 13 2022 and I still have to go back to this legendary song..truly the best of all time..
This song played constantly during my childhood in Ethiopia
Ye 90 lj
I am Ethiopian it’s so true
Was one of the few global musics played on Ethiopian TV.
This is one of the African songs that marked my childhood all the way from Congo 🇨🇩 Still can’t get enough!
This was one of my favourite songs we used to listen to in Kenya alongside Awilo Longomba 🔥
What is the meaning of the song
@@ekales_yes indeed I listen to this song everday
@@mercyachieng518 Directly translated, she say, "open the way gossipers, stop being jealous. I didn't know I'd get a daughter in law, but my son found her. Mrs Radebe remove those glasses and come to the wedding, as my son is getting married today. They said my son is a liar and he will never get married. Mrs Ngobese you're jealous because you don't have a son, you only have daughters..."
Me too from Zambia
I'm from Poland. I love somg from Africa. I didn't know this one before. Love it, it so positive :-)

She speaking about this guy. Who she thought the two were found of each other. She even was introduced to guy mother. They were kicking tight for years. All of sudden he marrying a girl he just met. She even in the video telling his mother and whole town what he did. Broke her heart. Yes this sister hear was a good singer. However she died mysteriously jealousy between us African bad.

@@nzisaa sorry about that. I pray you be able to fix things with her soon thou 🙏🏾
20 yrs back we do remember when music was pure and sweat. It reminds me 2002, my mum used to like this song, it makes my tears roll down 😭😭😭😭😭😭 cz she is no more 2002 took her a way from me May her soul rest in peace
She was totally unknown in Latin America. If she would had marketed her songs in this part of the planet shed would be as popular as Madona. What a loss....RIP...Greetings from Venezuela to all her fans....
It's wedding song.."open the gate today it's my sons wedding"
👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
@@mkrsms1225 Thank you
No my dear . Brenda was more popular than madona that's why she didn't have reason to market her songs . Vulindela was the jerusalema in the 90s
I'm From Nigeria 🇳🇬 and this is one of my favorite childhood songs, even though i don't understand what shes saying. I can remember listening to this song early morning before leaving for school. Of a truth LEGENDS NEVER DIE, REST ON. ✊
Same

Same sister. I'm from Kebbi State, Nigeria. I enjoyed and still enjoying it.

Man, started listening to this song all the way in Ghana back in the 90's. MMYY is 10/22 , made a life here in The States and still listen to it every now and then. Reminds me I came from far. Cheers.
I vividly remember seeing Brenda Fassie(Vulindela) on our tiny black and white TV(😂Greatwall TV for those who remember) back in 2002 in my parents small single room. She was a hit in Kenya at the time. Ps.she still is a star.
