Sipho Gumede - Alone In A Strange Place

second track from Sipho Gumede's '20 Years of life Live @ The Bassline' album

[owenbanda]

I'm listening this outside my backroom apartment, it's not much but it's peaceful. I moved here recently, totally new place, far away from where I grew up, new people, new culture .A chance to start afresh, but still old demons torment me, I guess u can't run away from your problems, no matter how far and fast you go.But the is a new Steelenes to me, amongst the usual battles I have an inate joy a peace . We have made progress .we can close this off as a great year .

Who is here in 2025? 😢
Reminds me of the time everyone was still alive 🥹 I miss my grandparents 😢😢

I am the son of the AFRICAN soil.
I am unique amongst millions like me.
Change is coming, it's here.✊🏿

[lebotjale]

Afro Jazz is my weakness. Once I start listening to it, I can’t stop 😭❤️

[lesegolovesletters]

A familiar aroma wafted up after listening to this song. Memories of my mama's kitchen on Sundays, my dad polishing his shoes to prepare for the week ahead. The sound of eggs frying in the morning. Memories of mama shaving my dad's head. This song has childhood fond memories💖💖💖

Ppl who never studied music. Ppl who were composing music. Ppl who were writing music for the love of it not competing for awards😢

[TOPAFRICA]

You can't listen to this music without thinking about your life yesterday, today and tomorrow!

I was here. I took a walk down to memory lane. My granny would wake me up at 4:30 am to prepare me for school. School was far. While waiting for my transport she would play the radio and Sipho Gumede would play...Hugh Masekela. Back when I was innocent and protected from the harsh realities that would burden my soul. Gumede is a legend! People like him gave us a gift that makes life bearable. His music is like a warm blanket in the middle of a lonely winter's night.

This song doesn't ask much, it wants us to close our eyes and relax...

God robbed us here. The man was a musical genius. One of the best we had in South Africa. ✊

[lizparadza]

Am imagining driving home from a long trip and the sun is about to go down and you can feel the weak rays on your face. But the music system in the car gotta be the best. 🤩🤩🤩

[yandisapikini]

This song will always make my weekend special. If you are not listening to Jazz what are you doing.
