about

Doubtless the most pop sound of Bantunani, Let them talk, is conceived in the harmony and the popular melody to arouse a hymn in the peace between the peoples who, hardly of a reflection based on the conscious dance, resume the future in hand abondonnant politics.
The title oscillates between seventies tones and motown with rhythmic one piano hammering the urgency of the peace.
This peace wanted by Michel's feather leaves Kinshasa to shalom salem Gaza

lyrics

Couplet (Michel - Awa)
I’ve never thought
It would come before
That so much people
Would walk hand in hand

Stop fighting
Stop suffering
Stop prejudicing

(Bridge - Virginie)
It would be so good
In this wild world

Then we all sing

Shalom - salem - shalom
Salem - shalom - salem
We must say it loud.

Let them talk
I believe in future
let them talk
The way we’ve done before
Let them talk
Peace is possible
Let them talk

Couplet 2 (Michel & Awa)
They’ve never knew
It would change one day
So much power was passed on
From our Kinshasa to Jerusalem

(Michel - Awa )
Keep on talking
Keep on lying
Keep on watching

(Virginie)
Your politics are so cruel
When you just feed the rich

(Awa - Michel)
Children sing…

Shalom - salem- shalom
Salem - shalom - salem

(Michel - Awa)
Keep on dreaming

Refrain:
Let them talk
As they always done before
Let them talk
I would die for
Let them talk
Peace is possible

(Bridge Français : Awa)
Tant de sang versé en vain
Marchons contre le déclin
J’entends encore le souffle de la paix
Telle une flamme jaillie de nos yeux

(Bridge Hébreux : Lune ou Awa)
Al hadam chénichpahh lashav
Niishaad neged ha quishalon
Od nishma lahash ha shalom
Qué shalhévèt notsetset
Mé ha éénaïm

(couplet 3 : Michel & Awa)
We’ve never thought
It would come before
Believers would pray
The same god

(Awa - Virgine)
Stop ignoring
Stop judging
Stop yearning

(Virginie - améthys)
It would be so good
To live in brotherhood
It would be so good
For the next generations


We have to change


LET THEM TALK
As they always done before
LET THEM TALK
Like they burie the poor
LET THEM TALK
The way we've done before

Shalom..Salem
Shalom...salem

about

Bantunani image

Bantunani Paris, France

More than music, Bantunani is primarily an adventure, the will of a person to continually unite around her musicians from all walks of life to draw a sound, thought, and a groove nomadic that caresses the ages languages and styles. It rubs happy soul, funk, R & B and Afrobeat in a world where the guitars are expressed between joy and arrogance behind hushed vocals. ... more
