Reminds me of when I worked in Kenya. One night walking home from a night at the bar I came across a group of people trying to push a pickup truck in the mud after rain, I joined in I was the only muzungu in the group but I had learn't Twende Twende from some blokes threading a Telephone cable through manholes some days earlier. I was pushing the truck and shouting twende twende. We got the pickup up the hill and to the owners home I was invited in for drinks and my shoes were whisked off for cleaning. Woke up the next morning with an hangover. They said if I had not have got so involved the other men would have given up and left the truck stranded!

A giant rests... Requiescat in pace, Oliver "Tuku" Mtukudzi (22 September 1952 - 23 January 2019) Great African, musician, businessman, philanthropist, human rights activist... You live on in your gift of music.
I love this song so much with of course the language barrier.The vocals of these legends do it for me.I love my African music.All the love from South Africa
Eric and Oliver Mtukudzi The Great! I love this songs very much. We need more of such cooperation between African Artists to produce Great Songs that Africa can be proud of. I love South Africa former President, Thabo Mbeki. Mr Mbeki never thinks of himself as a South African. To him territorial and geographical regions are irrelevant. To him he is an African, period! When we are in Europe or America we talk of coming back home, where home means Africa. Let's all be Africans, not Ugandans, Kenya
I had to download it to my usb so that when am busy at home i make sure am listening.first this song i heard it in 2009 when i was a teenager until today am listening.aug 2023
I am a 12 year old girl ...I just came in last Two months....and only Hearing this song.....not only insires me and gives me Confidence but it also gives me home sick.
This song makes me cry sometimes, life in college was very tough I was about to give up I can’t stop thinking about someone somewhere who motivated me when I was about to give up she keeps saying twende twende tu

Zunguka Zunguzuka neni
Kuja nami tuungane tuache kuzozana
Ngatiende tiende mberi
Wajua Upendo hauna mfano hauna adui kaka
Takabatana savatema
It's pole pole going slow
But still we're keeping time
We're facing forward looking up
Forgetting what's behind
Twende Afrika heyo!
Twende Twende
Kuja nami
Twende Twende
Upande upande
We ongoza nikufuate
Tiende tiende
Mberi mberi
Twende Twende
Kwete shure
Zunguka Zunguzuka neni
Zvinoda rudo kubatana Kuti tibudirire
Twahitaji upendo ili tusonge mbele
Kutambura kwedu Zvichida hatina rudo
Ukosefu wa upendo waleta dhiki
There's more to Mama Africa
Than poverty and war
I wish we had a fighting chance
To show off who we are
Twende Twende
Kuja nami
Twende Twende
Upande upande
We ongoza nikufuate
Tiende tiende
Mberi mberi
Twende Twende
Kwete shure
Zunguka Zunguzuka neni

Sitaki
Ukiumizwa hata mimi ninasikia uchungu
'Kiangaishwa ninalia ukilia dada
Chinokubanda misodzi yangu inobuda
Paunosuwa moyo wangu unorwadza
You hear the music miles around
The drumbeats never end
The voices raised for Africa
Nkosi Sikeleli
Twende Twende
Kuja nami
Twende Twende
Upande upande
We ongoza nikufuate
Tiende tiende
Mberi mberi
Twende Twende
Kwete shure
Zunguka Zunguzuka neni
