There will never be one like Luanzo Luambo Makiadi!
very true...
The year 2900, this track will still be legendary.
TOUJOURS!
Na comprendre sikoyo nzembo ya Karmapa:kaligula...❤👍🏽
Speachless! Franco was inspired by God. That was that and that's it.
This is one sweet music; to see the tpok jazz perform is priceless.Thanks for the video
ça me rapl mon enfance et certaines personnes chères qui nous ont quitté, merci
Makambo ya Songi songi....2019 still waoooo
grande Franco princesse kikou,estas música me faz pensar do meu pai. José Chocolate Ramos ( Tchimpuati ) é que alma dele descansa em paz.
Super
Hatari na nusu
Was für ein cooler Song, was für ein tolles Stück Musik: es swingt und rollt und groovt noch lange nach dem es geendet hat
Great, my favorite of Franco.
Outstanding! Thank you for sharing one of my favorite Franco/TPOK songs. The songs that contrast the front line singers with Franco's voice are my favorite.
Great music...relaxing and soothing..........sang with passion and ease
in our Hearts you live forever... #franco&tpok
Franco just doing the lead then steps behind,leaving back up vocal to be done by very competent team
Those Guitars & Voice, Heavenly Sent'
Indeed our equivalent to Classical Music of Africa... TPOK lived to its billing ''The All Powerful orchestra''
Just for thought ''' Why didn't their sons and daughters take music from where their fathers left it from''?
At the vocals, left to right: Ntesa Dalienst Zitani, Lokombe Ntal, Madilu System and Franco Luambo.
This was and still is my favorite song.
Nice melody..the great master sing mm rose kasa vubu.. Rest in peace franco
❤ The music 🎼 so lovely
Man.................franco. this is just good.
Legendary
wow!!!!
Superb....

@Rengwa...
Me thinks the person who introduced fast beat genre of ''soukuoss'' messed Congolese Rhumba. Ndombe's son, Awilo the son of Vicky Longomba and others are musicians but they've deviated from this sweet tunes to Noisy beats that do not make sense. hopefully one day they will see some light and strum a guitar to this genre
Otoyo performing live..bolingo ya songi songi
Bathbambu, thanks all the same. I am hoping someone can come and rescue some of us the trouble of simply enjoying the music without undesrtanding it. I am quietly researching Luambo's music with the view of writing something for the general reader and Africans in general. Unfortunately, I do not know Lingala but was a great fan of Franco since the 1970s when I was high school
Franco was talking about the envy pple had for a lady by the name princes kikou. she loved luxurious life style. People would accuse her and associate with bad things which are cooked on her. She wouldn't bother about them instead continue with her own life.
The audience in tandem.
whats franco saying?..i agree with him fully!
See Madlilu
This song was about Marie Rose Kasavubu (Daughter of Joseph Kasavubu first president of Congo )
Was it praising her or????
George ojwang. Franco composed this song for Marie Rose Kasavubu. She was young, Beautiful and happily married to a very handsome husband and successful, she had a top job during mobutus time, as a result she started encountering adversity and a lot of jealousy .Franco was a family friend and he wrote this song heckling at her enemies
@@abdouldissou1293 Then this makes the song more wonderful because of the subject.
Thanks alot for that clarification sir salute
african legend
you know you are making good music when your band is into the song too...lol 3:33
Nous sommes le 1er juin 2018
If you mention rhumba mention Franco and his team too.
Do you think the current genre of musicians can play live music like these Dudes! here
LWAKA, I am afraid not. Most of them are not disciplined and serious enough to do anything w/o adding gimmickry
C'est drôle dans mes souvenirs d'enfant (je suis de 74) cette chanson commençait pas comme ça. *Dommage. Mais bon ça fait l'affaire.
Est-il possible d'avoir les paroles traduites en français de ce pur jus? C'est franchement dommage parce que si ça avait été le cas, depuis mon enfance, y a longtemps que je saurais déjà dire 2-3 truc dans cette langue que je trouve délicieuse à l'oreille, tellement magnifique.
D'autre part, pur questionnement intellectuel, et sans porter de jugement: comment se fait-il qu'un pays qui a donné naissance à tant de figures artistiques et influencé les pays alentours musicalement, comment un tel pays a-t-il pu finir avec l'actu qu'on lui connait? C'est sûr avec les richesses qu'il possède, il attire les convoitises les plus sombres. Je viens d'un autre pays d'Afrique francophone et je recherche des infos sur l'histoire de ces pays depuis la colonisation. Une idée d'un site où les trouver?
Les pays d'Afrique n'ont qu'une cinquantaine d'années. 50 ans c'est presque le stade embryonnaire par rapport à d'autres qui emmagasinent des siècles d'organisation intérieure et de collaboration extérieure. Peu importe le temps qu'il nous reste sur cette terre condamnée par la pollution et le réchauffement climatique, je veux croire que le temps jouera en faveur de ce continent.
Merci pour le partage.
sublime franco and his tp ok jaz
am wit u on this one hochwada. totally lov the song ..........but I dnt knw wat he sings
I wish this could do be translated in English.
chahenza come to think of it that is a very interesting concept don't know why?
ila
La ligue des Champions PSG ✌️✌️✌️
What was Luambo saying in this beautiful song? Someone please?
The song is about people who always gossiping for notning and Franco doesn;t like those people....so he(franco or princesse kikou ) told them to stop it .
@LWAKA NO
Cuurent musician are all about puting on an act than being serious about the craft of making music.
Most music today is about the visual performance, the dancing. No serious attention is given to the composition/lyrics, the orchestration
just one bas player,one rythm guitar player,one harmonic guitar player and one lead guitar player(Franco)
Gerry is playing solo or lead guitar and Franco mi-solo
what is the name of the man at 0:51......i love tpok jazz....i dont understand anything but just enjoy the music......long live TPOK
Erick Otieno , is named madilu system or jean de Dieu madilu
That's Lokombe Ntal.
@@hyacinthekouame4338no Lokombe Ntal bt dont feature in most songs
Spot on @@lennoxobuong9996
@hyacinthekouame4338 that's Lokombe Ntal not Madilu System
beautiful. Someone translate please. I am Zimbabwean and love franco but have no clue what he is saying.
This song is about people who gossiping in the back of people and Franco doesn;t like those people . So this is the main topic on this song .
@@benmondo8924 thank you
What is he saying about Princesse Kikou? Could someone, please, translate.
These people just like in alot of the other video's look like Europeans listening to classical music only thing is, this has rythm. They must have some kind of better music cause I think this is African classical
Was für ein cooler Song, was für ein tolles Stück Musik: es swingt und rollt und groovt noch lange nach dem es geendet hat
Das ist RUMBA Musik aus ex Zaïre vom feinsteinsten. Bruder von Salsa und Tango👊🏿

{You accused me long time ago, they did not spoil my job for I know my work, I do it with one heart. What is it with my name?}
Ngai princess Kiku, nalembi koloba, nalembi koloba,
nakanisi boyoki ngai, bokoma ngai kokoma lokola bakomaka Yesu na kuruze
Ngai KIKOU, nalembi, nalebi, nalembi.
Botika ngai nye, bovanda na ya bino mibali
ngai mpe navanda na ya ngai mobali
baninga nyoso nazuaka kombo na bango, baenemy
baninga nyoso nazuaka kombo na bango bambanda ee

nazuaka po na nini?, nazuaka po na mosala, nazuaka po na mosala
Nazuaka po na mosala
papa na kiku , papa na kiku, nalela ndenge nini eee?

{I princess Kikou, I am tired of saying it, I hope you heard me, leave me alone the way they left Jesus on the cross. I am tired, leave me stay with your husbands and I stay with my husband. All the friends I had have become enemies; all my friends have become rivals. I dint know they want to know what I get and why I get, It is all about my work, I get from my work. Father Kikou, I cry what is it?
Bofundi ngai na mama, bofundi ngai na tata,
wapi epayi bomona, baboya mwana mpo na makambo ya biloba loba
mama aa mama ee
mpo na makambo ya songi songi?. mama aaa mama aaaaaaaa
{You accused me long time ago, they did not spoil my job for I know my work, I do it with one heart.
