Title: South Africa's unofficial national anthem Post by: Trevor on October 06, 2021, 06:18:21 AM If your feet don't move while hearing this, they're stuck in ice.

The song gives me chills, thrills and a few tears as well as does the memorable fly past Ellis Park by the great Captain Laurie Kay and his team: he threw that Boeing around in the air over Johannesburg so seemingly effortlessly, like it was a model aircraft. People who were present said that with the flyover and the downdraft, the entire Ellis Park stadium shuddered. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_7QjbNxdqc (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_7QjbNxdqc) Title: Re: South Africa's unofficial national anthem Post by: Newt on October 06, 2021, 09:25:49 AM I love that song. :thumbup:
