Why live if you don't fall down? (Umculo wami impilo yami) Why live if you don't fall? In this town, I'm beggin' to find someone who can save me (thandaza) And it's been tearin' me apart Well, I've been waitin' And nothing's been that easy for me lately (umculo wami, hey bo!) But this city has my heart She said, "In this town, there's nothin' in my name unless I make it And it's not written in the stars, but I got patience And I'll tell my story even if it breaks me (umculo wami impilo yami) 'Cause this city has my heart Help me with this heavy load Help me with this heavy load Help me with this heavy load Help me with this heavy In this town (ngisize) I'm beggin' to find someone who can save me (ng'yasindwa) And it's tearin' me apart (ng'thule lo mthwalo) Well, I've been waitin' (ngisize) And nothin's been that easy for me lately (ng'yasindwa) (umculo wami, hey bo!)

[@tammywilmot640]

As a South African expat (living in the USA), there are certain South African musicians, and songs, that make me homesick. Then you get a collaboration like this, and I just want to pack it all in and move back home. Well done to two of South Africa's best, for reminding me that despites the oceans that separate us (and the accompanying challenges), South Africa will always be my homeland.

This is the first time I've heard either of these musicians, but man, does this song hit - I'm surprised that it is not more globally recognized!

I have no idea why this isn’t a worldwide smash. This needs to be seen by everyone seriously interested in good music. Thank you Jeremy and Ladysmith Black Mambazo❤

Joseph Shabalala will be so proud of them. The BEST music, definitely the BEST.....Like you said, the world have to see them🎵🎶🎷🥁🎤🎼🎧🎸

One of my friend used this song on her story and I've been listening to it since then. You're right about that.

[@carlybmail]

This song makes me feel homesick and I'm in South Africa! I think it makes me homesick for the possibilities, what South Africa could and can be.

[@jonathang5350]

if i wanted to find more music with that kind of background group chorus of people singing, do you know what I would search? thanks

[@carlybmail]

Ladysmith Black mambazo has done a lot of collaborations like this. Paul Simon's Graceland is an amazing example. I also like Johnny clegg and savuka for English singing with zulu backing vocals

Thank you for the reminder, one can feel homesick while living in SA. I had this for a Very long time

You south African people knows the very essence of tribal music that Can hit the soul very deeply i wish we had so many more artist like you. Keep Going.

[@valeriesmyth772]

If you ever need a children's choir to work with, please consider KCC. I'm proud to be working with them and even prouder when I listen to this song. It shows what we as South Africans can achieve when we work together. Well done to all you 💜🇿🇦

[@Albert711]

I first saw Jeremy on the tv here in Germany and I was surprised that he was one of our own down there from Africa. "going down south" was trilling to me then. But "this town" is just as we say it in my home Cameroon, " The badest song I ever heard". That means, there is no song that is going to beat this song. I have been listening to this song now for over two weeks and about 15 to 30 times a day. No exaggeration. I mean it. Bro let me know when you are coming to Germany.
