Song "I'm burning up" was actually waxed in 1986. Most of her other songs were 1987 and 1988 upwards. I was in Secondary School then and this was a frequent party favourite.
This song was a VERY BIG HIT in Nigeria back in the 1980s when I was in secondary school. Brings back very good memories. Yvonne Chaka Chaka we bring you love from Nigeria🇳🇬
Gone are those days when love and affection between man and woman was delivered through music without negatively affecting kids. Elders would listen to the songs comfortably in front of their children....Now the table has turned
Nowadays love and affection between man and woman is being delivered through SOCIAL&PHYSICAL--PERVERT-PEDOPHILIC-MANIPULATION! The Today HUMAN brains are being mentally miutilated to buy the Pedophilosophy of Perverts and Pédophiles with power! What a doomed planet
I first heard this song when I a 20 year old kid in prison in 2009. I Went in at 17. Got my GED, did a culinary course and got trusty status. Me and 7 other inmates worked at the kampala Uganda Food Bank after completing the culinary course. I fought tears hearing this song on the bus ride at 5am on the way to work and this song still makes me tear up today
days when humanity enjoyed it's most profound nature. It was that fact which pushed Tanzanians to sacrifice their economy for the liberation of other African countries. The economic paralysis of Tanzania under the late Julius Nyerere reached its severest point when long lines for yellow maize flours were a common thing. Clothes, shoes, soaps, toothpaste were rarely available either only to be found in the smuggling hideouts. That bitter memory comes to the mind of a Tanzanian like me when hearing this heart touch song of Yvonne personally being then a boy of secondary school. It was about time for a go-home bell when the quite class heard this pitiful voice of a South African singer from a neighbouring house's radio. The lady did indeed won the hearts the boys and girls who forgot about their economic plight and preferred sympathy for the apartheid victims. All Tanzanians supported Nyerere when he adopted a policy of liberation struggle in Africa as well as a policy of combating the apartheid regime in South Africa
It's hot already in Jamaica 🇯🇲 and I was walking through the office singing this! Everyone laughing and I told them it's a real song 😂🤣😂🤣 Had to Google it to prove it because I remember it as a child!!! Now we're all vibing and burning up!!! #2024
2022 and am still here... Feels just like yesterday. This really made my childhood, back then in the 90's! Thank you evergreen Legendary Chaka Chaka! Lots of love from NIGERIA. ❤
few days ago at the university of Uganda Christian University, my coursework about African nationalism by chakachaka's music earned me fame and pride. lecturers were pleased when i sung im burning up, motherland, and i cry for freedom
I remember in kenya when t.v. was very rare we used to go kilometres away to a local town(kandara)and stand outside of a barber shop just to watch her videos
God bless you all chaka chaka, lucky dube, Brenda fez, onwenu onyeka, fela, angelina kodjo and the rest I can't remember for making my childhood so memorable with lovely music with meanings compare to what we have today. The days of cassette and not CD nor DVD. 2022 and this song still sound great. Live from Nigeria 🇳🇬 🙌
Crazy how we used to sing this song without knowing what the lyrics actually meant 😂 😂 ... I miss that innocence... My dad really loves this song.... Lots of love from 🇰🇪

This song was on top of the world when we were young and our first born in our family loved it so much . This was a season when South Africa surpassed Europe and USA in interns of music.
My father played this song on an old school CD player.. That used to go round naked, I got myself singing in and out from school every where in the indigenous upper part of upcountry in Kenya , I miss old days.. The song in my heart is still on fashion and never loose value 2021
it was in 2002 and i had to play the LP player radio that my grandpa owned, then booom i cam across this song ....from that day till today im a big fan of mama Yvonne........the other one i fell in love from that LP was im in love with a DJ
This song is like a miracle to me. Anytime I listen to this song i feel renewed and refreshed. I feel like a worrior also. Mrs Chaka Chaka you are great. Live forever.
My mother told me that she used to play this song ❤️ whenever she had some customers at our bar in 1985😘🥰 here in Uganda 🇺🇬 the pearl 🍐 of Africa 🌍
