David is from the Latin American heritage, which explains the Spanish segment. He helped Amira with the Spanish on this one, and it's near perfect. He also played the piano. They worked on this from separate continents, not meeting up till Amira visited California last December. The tune is O sole mio, an old Italian song, and the piece is a reworking of a song by an American duo called The Hawaiians. Other recommendations are... Gesu Bambino, and Amen, with the Ndlovu youth choir. Amira knocks both of them out of the park.

Thanks for your great reaction to this masterpiece. Here's some probability calculations: Step 1. Probability of a boy meeting a girl to have a romantic relationship with: one in 20,000. Step 2. Probability of that same boy knocking up that same girl: one in 2000. Step 3. Probability of right sperm meeting right egg: one in 400 quadrillion. Step 4. Now lets assume that you have just those 12 generations of ancestors mentioned in the intro to this song. For the probability of every one of those 12 generations of your ancestors having reproduced successfully with right sperm having met the right egg is (20k x 2k x 400 quadrillion) to the 12th power. Going backwards in time with even more generations of your ancestors, we soon reach a probability of 1 divided by the number of atoms in the entire universe. This makes each one of us a unique miracle. P.S. Most, if not all, of the free diving sections are taken from Guillaume Néry's short film "One Breath Around The World", which you can watch on his YT channel. His thongs are in fact extra weight to adjust his buoyancy. P.S.S. Finlsn is the metal kingdom of the world with 700+ metal bands per 1M citizens. No other country comes even close - e.g. in the U.S. that share is just about 70.
