Youssou n'Dour - africa remember acoustic

Youssou visiting the isle of Goree, and singing Africa remember together with a great Koraplayer.....

I always felt a great connection to this song not knowing understanding the words. Now I see the translation and know that what I felt when listening to this masterpiece is from our ancestors. It is in our genes and those that are linked will feel it. We are one.

This is fantastic! Who is the Kora player? I am glad I found this. I do not speak Wolof, but Youssou’s music has always spoken to me. I have asked before for a translation of the lyrics to “africa remembers” but never got this much. A song that has always moved me now has even more meaning.

@ thanks. A Kouyate. Nice to know. In 1992 I’m purchased a balafon from a Seramang Kouyate in the Gambia. Still have it.
