Sheer nostalgia 1954-1971 of hometown Byo : Jacaranda trees lining widest streets, best schooldays and genuine spontaneous friendships shared 🏅

[@Simon_Hawkshaw]

My beautiful home town. Never forgotten.

[@thabanirayngwenya8278]

Thanks for this. Makes me nostalgic.

[@urbanlegendpictures]

Definitely man, especially when you're thousands of miles away in some 'parallel world.' Being detached from home sucks because you're always gonna feel out of touch in some way

[@narrenmunsaka3266]

Enjoyed watching the video, keep on the great work!

[@urbanlegendpictures]

Thanks man. We gotta keep fighting till the end

Everithing built by Ian Smith.

[@urbanlegendpictures]

Let's not forget the amaNdebele supporting cast and Rhodes for the screenplay

[@PhansiKhongoloza]

The whole city built by the Abelungu.

[@lazaruschabvuta4844]

Ummm I think Bulawayo come from a very hard time I'm a shona who love Ndebeles more than Shona's

[@Moodleprof]

The text is too fast - it should read it 3 words a second

[@urbanlegendpictures]

I see the speed as a bit much. The pause button should help fix that miscalculation

[@Moodleprof]

@@urbanlegendpictures using a pause button to watch video defeats the purpose of the medium. It would be much better to take them out (they're a distraction anyway) and insert a spoken narration in post-production.

[@urbanlegendpictures]

@@Moodleprof The narration would have laid bare the over pacing

I think the title is a bit misleading. Great work however, we need as much of this type of content as possible.

[@lusanimukhavhuli5696]

I would love to visit Bulawayo

[@ramnantsandilemthethwa9435]

Thanks for sharing

[@terranexile3681]

great memories from the natural history museum

[@urbanlegendpictures]

You should remember the Kori Bastard

[@salieujallow9112]

Bulawayo needs more high skylines and good roads

[@queenapryllm8454]

Maybe more city buses to get to each township

[@TrevorMoses312]

My birthplace: thank you. 🙂

[@brianandtarryn]

The text should be slowed down. Old guys like me can't read this fast. Thanks for showing Bulawayo.

[@urbanlegendpictures]

Thanks for the feedback. If the video is too fast, try using the pause button. We young people always rewind and pause on videos due to low attention spans, so don't be quick to use age as a defence

[@brianandtarryn]

@@urbanlegendpictures Lol, that's funny. We old people were young yesterday. Blink a few times and you too will wonder what happened to the years.
This reminds me of the tombstone on a cowboys grave.
It read:
"As you are, so I was,
As I am, soon you will be."
This is a stark reminder that we will all stand in judgement before our maker and should be prepared.
Thank you again for this video of Bulawayo. 🙂

1:22 - Intriguing use of the comma.

[@terrencemasuku8909]

Nice video, song?

[@urbanlegendpictures]

I would be lying to you if I said I knew. I got them from a traditional South African mix on UA-cam

[@trevormoses5061]

My birth place: thank you 🙂

[@christopping5876]

Bulawayo, nice place but a bit far out of town, or a Lay by with lights! Sorry guys, can't help it, from Bamba Zonke!😂 (Great memories of the Trade Fair and Matopos!)

[@glendodds3824]

Hi. Are they singing in Sindebele?

[@urbanlegendpictures]

It's probably in Zulu which is similar to Ndebele anyways.

[@daveokamasuku]

😂😂😂 lies, they are singing in seTswana. That is an insult to my Ndebele and to all the Nguni languages

[@Tssharif]

​@@urbanlegendpictures please be specific it's similar to Zimbabwean Ndebele. South african Ndebele is different

Why did Cape to Cairo change to nton nton court, that is nonsense.

40 You brethren of Africa, of Asia, of Europe and of America! Maybe you were expecting the Message of Matthew 25:6 in your country, but God did it another way. Remember our Lord Jesus Christ! Being the high priest Melchisedec, the rabbis and the scribes saw that He should come from the tribe of Levi. But He came out of the tribe of Judah. Then, His Message and his works confirmed that it was Him the Messiah. And today, on the whole face of the earth, if you are a child of God, your place, it is here with the prophet of your time, Prophet Kacou Philippe. And he that has ears to hear, let him hear.
