I'm with Swish on this one. That's why I can't get into opera.

Swish, Jack, "I heard that" :) and I don't understand a word either, however I stumble on to her while streaming Pandora, and it was love at first listen,

she's a (Malian, from (Mali) somewhere around the Ivory Coast) the language that she sings in is (Wassoulou, one of thousands, of African Dialect spoken in west Africa)

some ethnomusicologists believe that Wassoulou music is one of two forms of western African music that have great influence on the early American "Blues & Jazz" hence, music is a universal "language" if you can hear it" its all good:)

She sounds fine and all, I'm just not a big 'World Music' fan. I just can't relate to it, and I supposed the language barrier is the main issue.

I am with you on this one Winston. Great find! You know her music is now going on my must have list :)

She is tiny compared to the guitar. Beautiful girl, soul, voice, and smiling all the way. I love her.

WOW! I like that! I could hear the emotion she put into it...going to have to see what else she sings. The only word I think I understood was "singit" "singit".


Oh...I like this one.
