Here’s a Kicksville number that encompasses lots of intensity, soulfulness, and drums. Don’t you love how Kicksville always uses lots of drums?

 

According to my sources, the title means “my love” in Zulu. Now replace “my” with “Kicksville” and replace “love” with “loves you." Ergo,  KICKSVILLE LOVES YOU, Dear Listener, and don’t you forget it!

 

Why else would they use so many drums all the time?

You get the point. But even if you don't, it's still a nice song, right?

 

[editor's note: Before you ask, it's "Ee-see-tand-wa Sa-mee" All the "a" sounds are like the "a" in want. You can hear Vusi sing it at the 1:15 mark in the song.]

For those of y'all new to Kicksville, here's how this whole Singles thing works: Think of it like a TV series. You can watch the episodes each week for free, and at the end of the season, you can buy a DVD with all the shows plus some bonus shite. With our Singles series, you can download a new song each week for free, and at the end of the season, you can buy a DVD/CD with all the music plus videos, liner notes, each single's artwork, and so on.

 

Pretty simple, right? So stay tuned...

Yep, our main web site is now bigger, stronger, and faster. There's [gasp] actually information about us on there now in addition to tons of free downloads, videos, photos, etc.

 

The site is actually frigging huge - we've added almost 25 new pages dedicated to the music, art, lyrics, the live show and associated technical geekery, and more. There are still a few pages under construction, but 95% of it is up and running. Go!
