Singing Francine - Parang Parang

[@judebailey1962]

79 - 80’s.......nothing sweeter than waking up to some parang music and the sweet smell of “cocoa tea, ham, fresh baked bread, SPICES”.....just fills the air of CHRISTMAS......Memories of when Christmas was Christmas.....Caribbean/Greenz/Stonz

[@yolandef5929]

It would be real nice if our Tv stations played more of this retro parang..Thank goodness for You Tube....!

[@brendavillaroel3899]

Miss my mom most at this time oh how she Loved Christmas .I am seeing her Dancing right now May she RIP Love u Always mom

[@adriangamble2214]

Brenda Villaroel I miss mine as well. Christmas has not been the same since. I’m from Barbados and this song brings back such good childhood memories at Christmas time

[@camishachadband7465]

Same here my mom; same thing may her soul rip.😥😥😥🤧🤧😇😇😇🙏🙏🙏💃💃💃💃💃💃❤💞💞💞💞

[@duaneoconnor7771]

I miss my mom & dad also, this song was a staple at our home as well as the singer in the 80's how these memories would never die...

[@noelaperrytv2739]

Miss my mom too, Im from Trinidad and Christmas has not been the same since she died. No more black cake or punch a créme.

[@rhondawalters8465]

me also my momi miss you😭😭😢😭

[@lynpedro5472]

Thank you for these parang songs. My mom just perks up every time she hear them. It’s a blessing, especially when a parent has Alzheimer and they come alive with the beat. Our family’s from Lopinot , Matelot, Arima, Toco regions, so we know about parang. Anytime of the year this music is comforting to her.

[@arthurthavictor6519]

This song brings me back as child growing up in the early 80s huh cant get those feeling again man..oh plus my grand father was alive and all his co workers use to come over and drink eat...a lot and being the first grand child he took me anyway with him around this time

[@djpanrasdaversiteoldschool8912]

yeeeaaa boy!! same vibe with me here. u hear pig squealing 3-4a.m. n music jamming, black cake eating, rum drinking. it rel change. but i think there's ways of keeping it alive

[@user-ps3yu9ei5d]

She is gone,however her voice and music,I still love.Christmas when I was growing up in sixties,seventies,was really the best time of year,now I don’t know what they celebrate.

[@wasonaudiovisualentertainment]

Rip Singing Francine

[@DevinciFX]

PARANG, PARANG By Singing Francine Paranging in the Croisee, one night with San Jose, I met a parrandero who sang to me this way - Parang-parang, parang-parang, parang-parang. That's what he sang. Oh Maria, oh Madre mia, Jesus Christ is born On a winter's day, Madre mia, Happy Christmas morn Parang, parang oh, parang, parang oh, parang, parang oh, parang-parang. He sang a true story of Christ in His glory And said He's coming back soon, if you hear parranderos croon Parang-parang, parang-parang, parang-parang. That's what he sang Oh Maria, oh Madre mia, Jesus Christ is born On a Christmas day, Madre mia, sing a happy song Parang, parang oh, parang, parang oh, parang, parang oh, parang-parang. I joined the parranaderos not singing calypso I sang an aguinaldo, they shouted, "Mucho, mucho!" Parang-parang, parang-parang, parang-parang. That's what he sang Oh Maria, oh Madre mia, Jesus Christ is born On a winter's day, Madre mia, sing a Christmas song Parang, parang oh, parang, parang oh, parang, parang oh, parang-parang. I'll never forget it, parang is sweet music I sang in Hispaniola, they shouted, "Canta, canta!" Parang-parang, parang-parang, parang-parang. That's what he sang Oh Maria, oh Madre mia, Jesus Christ is born On a Christmas day, Madre mia, sing a Christmas song Parang, parang oh, parang, parang oh, parang, parang oh, parang-parang. Parang, parang oh, parang, parang oh, parang, parang oh, parang-parang....

[@ladyd55101]

I would like to see Trinidad do a big concert. Honoring the great Calypsonians. It would be nice for the young Calypsonians to go in the Vault of what is the meaning of all the Classical. Trinidad has always been bursting like the hottest Volcano with talent galore. I'll give you a 9 butterflies.

[@MrTwarty]
