“Nizokwenzani” by Jackson Ntlekiso
2011-11-11 Man!Kunzima ilife siphila ngayo emhlabeni
Sikhangel ‘imali emakhonene, cause ngolwesihlanu kufuneka kube sphitiphiti man
Sigruve sijaive namatjombosi asekhasi kondwa imali sisayithola kanjani man siphile ilife igrand
Yazi sifun uvaya ngemoto siyekh ‘umanga manga business
Utubula singa tubulane, ubulala singa bulalane sobafobaam bangathath ‘imali yekhasi sithol ‘imali kuphinde kubesphitiphiti man, Hah!

“Wimpie's song” by Deon du Preez
2011-11-11Our life was filled with endless lies, but we only put on our masks to hide our hopeless cries.
Was it you or me? Me and you? You drove me away, I can't explain.
“Who I be” by Miss Thandi
2011-11-11 They call me the one who likes to walk in the rainAll by myself, the one who feels no pain
Some may even call me a little insane
’Cos I get what I want when there’s nothing to gain
“Enwove for sake, the bliss as I wake” by Jacques du Preez
2011-11-11 Two hearts start beating as one in this cradle of passion that we’ve begun.Just close your eyes and we’ll kiss away this earth between us falling astray.
In this moment of love soaring above all wrong and anguish the world enwove.
Pray we drown in each other’s eyes, in bliss, in radiance far from lies.
As mens 'n voëltjie hoor fluit

2011-11-09 I didn't know of loveI didn't know of a thing
I've never known of prophets
Or ever believed in unnatural feelings
“I'll be there” by Lulama Nomankonyana and Ntombikayise Mdladla
2011-11-09 In time of sorrowI’ll be there to protect you
So when feeling low
Remember there is someone
Who cares for you
There is someone who
Feels the pain just for you
“This moment” by Johann Joubert
2011-11-09 Never let a sunrise pass you by,Never force a tear out from your eye,
Before you blink the night will steal the
Glory of the day,
And in so doing, whisk your dreams away.
“Sense of humour” by Alistair Anderson
2011-11-09 Are those space pants ‘cause your ass is out of this world? (spoken)If I rewrote the dictionary, I’d put you and I together. (spoken)

Feeding the fire
Feeding the fire

Is that a day that I pushed you away,
Baby you are the only one that I need to be in my heart
"Where do I stand in your heart" by Diego Dumalisile
2011-11-09 ‘Cause you’ve been gone so long, my heart’s not strong for long, if I can’t breathe I’m gone, and to the moon like Armstrong, I’ll fly out and be a man, I won’t quit you’ll understand, the day passes I get a tan, I’m so hot like click bang, my time’s up like eminem, I’ll let you burn and blow ash, so tip-toe like caven nash ...
