Wow, I never thought Brenda's song went as far as Ethiopia. There has been covers done in Madagascar by different artists: m.th-cam.com/video/PwKZ3AAWKLk/w-d-xo.html m.th-cam.com/video/uFVUJGzeNTE/w-d-xo.html
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)
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.
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.
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.
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
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,
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 🇪🇹
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 🖤
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 😭🥰🥰🥰
Growing up in London, going to west African parties 🇬🇭🇸🇱 with my parents this song would be played on repeat, hopefully our generation and next will appreciate music like this
This is a good wedding song by the way. The mother is saying open the way, don't be jealous,my son is getting married, despite the fact you all thought he couldn't.
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.
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.
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

Mrs Ngobese you're jealous because you don't have a son, you only have daughters..."
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 ❤️❤️❤️😘
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
When I was a kid growing up in rural highlands of Kenya I used to listen to this song on my father's radio when I went out to take care of his herds. It was such an amazing tune it gives me all my childhood memories I'm always emotional when listening to it🥰🥰
I’m 19 now in 2021 in United States, I remember hearing this in 2007 in Nigeria not understanding a word from it but it still give me strong emotions❤️
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. ✊

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.
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....
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 🇨🇩
As a Nigerian, this played a huge part in my childhood. This song would be played at MANY parties way back when. May her soul continue to Rest In Peace❤️
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.🇨🇲🇿🇦
Watching this video brings back the memories while a child in Uganda when my dad used to give me a tape to rewind with a pen so that we can play again..this song here is priceless 🙌🙌
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.
This song was played in all the Sierra Leonean 🇸🇱 parties that I went to as a child. Now I’m turning 22 and I’m still obsessed with this beautiful song. Thank you so much BRENDA ❤️❤️❤️ May your soul forever Rest In Peace and Power
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 🇿🇦🇿🇼
Growing up in South Sudan listened to this song, our late uncle told us Brenda she is from South Africa, it was a time we don't even know what Africa mean and he told us Africa is a very large home where many black people lives on! I love Brenda Fassie from South Sudan🇸🇸
@@bensenmufwambi7921 It is, what the OP means might be that they thought the world starts and ends with South Sudan, they never realised that it was actually a land or country in a continent called Africa with other countries, such as South Africa, and it is a vast land filled with Africans.
Oh my God!! I have been searching for this forever! Since I was a child I remember hearing it at parties and weddings. I didn't know the lyrics but I just loved it. This brings some childhood memories I'm so happy I am hearing it. I have been humming the tune to some people for years to see if they know the title, I am so happy I found this.
I grew up listening to her, Bob Marley, Thomas Mapfumo, Oliver Mtukudzi, Stella Chiweshe, Fela Kuti, Salif Keita etc I was truly blessed! Thanks for the great music! Rest in power to the ones who are no longer with us ❤️🇿🇦🇿🇼
The way my father loves this song😭. I love u daddy😘. I will leave this comment here and in the next 16yrs I will be here and show my children one of dads songs he enjoys🙏. Am currently at university🙏
@@billie6528 Yeah, but at least she kept the music pure, and didn’t coast by pretending to have talent on the basis of shock and novelty, with no actual talent..... ahem... Cardi B
To everyone around the globe watching this song in 2024,may it be a year of success, healing, abundance, good health and prosperity.
You're wonderful and you're doing your best.
You're are not alone. You're celebrated.
Keep going.

I shed tears when listening to this
2020
caleb Briggs why
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.
Me too
caleb Briggs you are not alone
La Bella thanks
She was and still is a legend…..we just danced to this at my daughters wedding recently
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 respect my parents for making me a cultured child😭❤️
I relate
May God bless them
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 🇨🇩
My God, I'm stuck... I can't stop listening to this song....
I am Ethiopian and this song reminds me of my childhood. Amazing song and singer.
One love AFRICA ❤️
As a Nigerian, this played a huge part in my childhood. This song would be played at MANY parties way back when. May her soul continue to Rest In Peace❤️
I cried when she passed, i was in akwa ibom at the time... Good times..
@@godwinsampson6081 pfffghgğbjkjscccmm
Nice watching from kenya
In the 80s, no party is complete without this song. May her soul rest in peace
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.🇨🇲🇿🇦

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.
Watching this video brings back the memories while a child in Uganda when my dad used to give me a tape to rewind with a pen so that we can play again..this song here is priceless 🙌🙌
J "adore la musique sud-africaine 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦,vive l'Afrique, vivre Afrique du sud et que vive la Rdcongo🇨🇩🇨🇩
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.
African are one actually. It's nationality and tribalism that is dividing us.
Same 😂
This is my ringtone on my mobile, it makes me smile and happy. Sometimes i take a while to answer.
😃I do that too hahaaa
rory nel please send me on my WhatsApp +919810249681. I don't know how to download in my phone

Hot
1000 years to come and this music will still be a hit. proud Ghana 🇬🇭 boy. 2020
This song was played in all the Sierra Leonean 🇸🇱 parties that I went to as a child. Now I’m turning 22 and I’m still obsessed with this beautiful song. Thank you so much BRENDA ❤️❤️❤️ May your soul forever Rest In Peace and Power
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 🇿🇦🇿🇼
I can’t help but look back nostalgically upon my childhood whenever I hear this song. So glad I stumbled upon it once again. RIP Brenda Fassi
*Fassie
Me too!
Je ne comprends un mot de ce qu'elle dit mais ça nous a marqué from Sénégal 🇸🇳🇸🇳🇸🇳🇸🇳
Tu y’a raison
🇸🇳 PEACE
D'où yow rek
Sénégal 🇸🇳 Présent
Pareil pour moi 🙏🇸🇳💞
Growing up in South Sudan listened to this song, our late uncle told us Brenda she is from South Africa, it was a time we don't even know what Africa mean and he told us Africa is a very large home where many black people lives on! I love Brenda Fassie from South Sudan🇸🇸
Isn't that South Sudan part of Africa
@@bensenmufwambi7921 Thats what I was about to ask🤷🏽♀️
@@bensenmufwambi7921 It is, what the OP means might be that they thought the world starts and ends with South Sudan, they never realised that it was actually a land or country in a continent called Africa with other countries, such as South Africa, and it is a vast land filled with Africans.
I'm lost for words. My workmate from Sudan will be embarrassed.
Not African but loved this song all the way in the Pacific
Oh my God!! I have been searching for this forever! Since I was a child I remember hearing it at parties and weddings. I didn't know the lyrics but I just loved it. This brings some childhood memories I'm so happy I am hearing it. I have been humming the tune to some people for years to see if they know the title, I am so happy I found this.
me too :')
yep those christmas days....gone are those days
OMG same here!! I would humm it to family members, all to no avail lol. Definitely brings back so many memories :-)
good
Same to me, childhood memories, there is no dull moment when I listen to her songs.
Mon coup de cœur.j ai interpréter ce morceau quand j'étais au CM2 à la kermesse de l'école.je me suis vraiment bien amusé.
Moi aussi
Moi j'ai toujours aime cette chanson
@@mahouakone153 I love this song also
I grew up listening to her, Bob Marley, Thomas Mapfumo, Oliver Mtukudzi, Stella Chiweshe, Fela Kuti, Salif Keita etc I was truly blessed! Thanks for the great music! Rest in power to the ones who are no longer with us ❤️🇿🇦🇿🇼
Then you are conscientized
For me this musique was the best musique in the world.

0% violence
0% drugs
0% twerk
100% talent
100% respect for women
Yes yeah
2:52 they are moving they're hands quit violently; joking💀
So true
Ok. Love Brenda Fassie but she had a pretty wild life that was based on drugs, sex, and women lol.
@@billie6528 Yeah, but at least she kept the music pure, and didn’t coast by pretending to have talent on the basis of shock and novelty, with no actual talent..... ahem... Cardi B
Her voice😭😭😭❤❤💥💥💥💥. I envy my parents for having had such good music❤😭💥💥. 2021 who is here with me🥳. Thumbs up👍.
Soy de Venezuela mi madre de Cartagena Colombia, en mi Sangre corre esta melodía a mil por horas 😌😏
