Pesa Position Na Yo (Madilu) - Franco & le T.P. O.K. Jazz Télé Zaire 1986

Madilu's biggest hit on which Franco played. In fact, there were only two, the other was Boma Ngai, Ngai Na Boma Yo To Bomana.
So I am not not talking about Franco's compositions on which Madilu did some singing, such as Mario, Non!, Tu Vois? (aka Mamou), Makambo Ezali Bourreau, but I am talking about songs composed by Madilu on which Franco played the guitar. Those were only two. In ten years.
Vocals: (fltr) Denis Bonyeme, Aimé Kiwakana, Malage de Lugendo and Madilu.

Pesa Position
Bolingo eleki na nga Angela
ekosi nga na zua malade
nalinga mibali kasi na suki
nafukami epai nayo
carte de visite ya pamba opesa nga
Shongo olangwisi nga na wee papa
libala ekomi kaka na bondela
elongwe kobondela ekomi na sambela
Mokoli ngo makambo ebele
nga nakanisa mingi ooo
nasengi na nzambe asunga
po to vanda na shongo oo
mobali tango alingaka moto o mama
azongaka sima mama ayee
Namileli nzoto na nga namikabi na satana
Chorus
Nandimaki te Shongo oboya nga
nzoto etonda distance na bambanda te
soki lisuma nini eza koyela nga
mayele esili nga mwana mama Shongo
molimo ekimi nga moto
kanisa amour na biso na Anvers

The only reason most of us Kenyans enjoy this song, unlike the Congolese is coz we don't understand a word they sing. We enjoying the tune, rhythm, emotion and passion. Learning the meaning of the lyrics takes that away, hence you don't find many congolese here.

[@ApoloKabali]

The song has translations in English.

[@karanichris5385]

Many fb apps have translated it

[@pmbalele]

That is beautiful. This was well coordinated among the four singers.

We shall never forget you Franco and Madilu system, i was still young in the 80s but today i am still listening to this classic song

I was 4 yrs old when franco passed on, 22 when madilu left us. The music came calling and here I am.

I cannot understand how these people composed this song. I mean how can three people sing a song with different sections and yet get it perfectly. It's just genius.

[@APOLO-oq3ce]

The song was written by Madilu system, he wrote only two "Ban Gai , he would go on to have a very success full career after passed". He was 55 years of heart attack in Kinshasa. Franco bands have always had four vocalists plus him

[@ultiatecitzena4608]

​@@APOLO-oq3ceonly two?

[@kennedymulendema628]

Have to agree with you. Pure genius

[@rodgersmbogo1575]

The four vocalists in this songs are phenomenal, the way they compliment each other.. Lugendo, Bonyime, Aime to Madilu❤❤❤❤❤

[@ApoloKabali]

Maduli System continue to rest in peace, you left too soon . This is a classic.

It is one of their best indeed, just look at the stage organisation: The vocalists, the percussionists, and those on the guitars, That drummer at his own stage, and there comes the freeze by the dancers, actually every thing points to organisation typical of TPOK Jazz!!!!!!

[@tbwanat]

I watch this always liking how the Master is looking at Malage de Lugendo. He must hav bn seeing a talented young man in front of him.
