cool tune, and that's all

didn't disserve to be in any other section as it was related to nothing really.


just a cool song

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9yR7VXVC70

reminded of songs like
'what's the time mr. wolf'

maybe it's a factor of my age, but then again i've not really
understood lyrics/pronunciation since i was a kid--always simply
adding my own, usually only liking stuff because it was catchy.
which started me liking international music...i didn't get most
songs anyway, better still if it was a given because of a language
barrier
this one's in english, but it sounds like a foreign group by
the unusual pronunciation of certain words. and i can't for the life
of me get what it's really about. most musicians dabble in their own
inner googly world of cryptic self meaning anyway.

i say this not because i erroniously think anyone would truly care
but just in case the song is about molesting sheep and i missed it
because i was thinking it was sort of retro bond movie catchy and didn't
notice

Yep, definitely about sheep shagging Russ, sorry!!

International and catchy eh?
Try these .....

Couldn't play the sheep shagging song. "not available in your country" But the Amadou and Mariam songs were cool.

have the same problem as you RB it would seem that there are quite a few songs on youtube that arnt available in norway!!!

I wonder why that is. Quite a few clips with music added to them have their sound muted due to lack of licence to use from the record companies. It might be related to that stuff.

hmmmmmmm...never thought about that

Maija,
that was worth the wait!!!

my keyboard/pc at home has sound. the one at work--since i'm in the dark ages there
for equipment, does not. nice tunes.
BTW: i lived in dakar when i was little--for a time, with my dad [journalist]. that was a
nice flashback. one of my favorite fast foods there were 'niems'. i think that's the spelling
for the abundant vietnamese spring rolls we used to cram down our gobs by the sea side.

Ah, Russell - I remembered that you were an international man of mystery!
So just one more Amadou and Mariam for you.
Actually they are originally from Mali, next door, but what the hell! I like his guitar playing in this one particularly.

Oh, and I'll think I'll go get me some of those Vietnamese fresh rolls, very tasty! I live in 'Little Saigon' so they are just a few blocks away ....

Maija,
really nice music. there's was a time when i loved anything
mali or west african if it had that special hypnotic sunset with wind
blowing in the palms quality. i can't remember all the names:
baba maal/yousen dour/salif keita [and i'm probably spelling all of them
wrong . really nice. i like the west african stuff because it combines
the cultural stuff with a hint of pop...sort of like why i liked rock steady
wake back whenever.

check this one out. i have to take it on faith that it's the song i remember,
with the added bonus of a story that is easy to get from the video [back on
my soundless PC]. if chipmonks are singing this one, i appologize in
advance.

there are some really good ones coming out of india, but [my opinion] it's a
1 in 50 shot--much quantity vs. quality. but the quality ones are just incredible,
better than most elsewhere. i remember fragments of songs i wasn't able to
find again, even now. there was some woman named deepak dhillon, who's
songs you can find [but they're not all that amaizing, when compared to this
isolated song she sang on a movie soundtrack...i can't find it on youtube, i found
it on 'i-tunes under ---IK JIND[album] YAAD [song writer] DEEPAK DHILLON [singer]
and no were else. that one is on my wife's ipod now, which she is forced to reliquish
when she goes to work.

nice trading cultural beats with you

Couldn't find what I was looking for on youtube, but if you search itunes for "Brent Lewis and Peter Wood" and "Moussa Traorè" there's some cool drum stuff. I like my drumming without singing so I only got "take" and "koteba" from Moussa Traorè's stuff. It's on "Mali Foli." Brent Lewis and Peter Wood's album on itunes is more of an Australian themed music.

Drumming is great for training Eskrima where so much depends on rhythm. I'll check out your recommendations RichardB

Russell, I know you spent some time in India, as did I. This movie soundtrack was playing everywhere when I was there.
I particularly like the randomly weird and wonderful choreography on this track ...

The drumming tunes of Moussa Traorè came to my attention through a Dog Brothers video, incidentally. Brent Lewis and Peter wood were found through searching on itunes, afterwards I noticed the Dog Brothers webshop sell a lot of CD's by those guys.

Back to youtube videos

I like this one. Boohey Barian by Hadiqa Kiani. Very pleasant music.
