I just heard about the new of his death (3 months later!!! And even if i'm french and lives in the same country where he died! No F*****G media told us about it!!! What a shame!!!) and i'm truely devasted! Thank you very much Sir Oryema for all your wonderful songs! Rest in peace!
The dad of Geofrey Oryema was called Eronayo Oryema, he was the first Inspector General of Police in a post independence Uganda. He was murdered by dictator Idi Amin. My dad was his driver. That is how he ended up in exile in the1970s in France where he lived until his death.

A powerful message that l've just discovered. Beautifully engineered and too refined if I were to make any criticism . The campfire magic is still audible, thanks to all
+Matias Romero Thank you SO MUCH for that translation. Ever I since I heard this song YEARS ago, I searched and searched for the translation! Can you tell me how it is you know that phrase? I'm not challenging your integrity, mind you...not at all! I'm genuinely curious how you know that phrase.

Does anyone else think it sounds a lot like Pink Floyd towards the end? Every time I listen to it I can't help but think that sounds exactly a Pink Floyd song.
Nafikiria kurudi shamba means literally "I feel like going back home". Shamba : my place, my birthplace, in this case, the village. But let's put it like "I feel homesick", or "I miss my homeland". Typical suffering from exile.

magical, like africa. hypnotic rhythm, the chorus just blows me away everytime.
ITS A SAD MOMENT HERE IN YOU UGANDA THAT THIS VOICE HAS GONE TO REST FOREVER. #THELANDOFANAK

Katrina Li yes. another brick in the wall.part one. the delay effect in the guitar is very gilmour like.
thanks bro......!
TRISTE, SAD...il nous a quitté
Paix a ton ame mon ami Geoffrey
Definately added to my list of erotic sounds, such a beatiful voice and sensual rythym
thanks
So very talented. I think he did some work with Gabriel.
We have one person who is so obviously musically brain dead :-( Awesome Magical track :-)
sexiest song ever
