Toto - Africa LYRICS

[scarlettducasse]

imagine this. it’s friday night in the 80’s and you and all you’re friends are enjoying a friday night together being normal teens. no phones no social media no photos but just the memories in your head. this song is playin. an you and your friends are having the best time dancing to it and till this day the song takes you back to that very moment of your youth and innocence in the 80’s

[robintaylor]

One of the best pop-culture songs ever written and ever will be.

[josephastier]

It has taken me twenty years to admit that I like this song.

[TheMatty]

Love how people saying they came here because of a meme... i came for the song its a beatiful song. Never seen memes about it tbh.

[smoothsmith]

i love the way you have the lyrics going slowly upscreen and how they can be read before the artists says the words. You should do this with all your songs you post on YouTube. This should give other people ideas on how to post lyrics be able to sing along without having to worry about what the artist will say in all verses and choruses. Awesome.

[lachlanandrews]

The irony of watching Madagascar and listening to this song at the same time.

[HeidiJ]

I love the line “Hurry boy, she’s waiting there for you” 👌🏼

[TheRyanlax]

With this melody, the words could literally be anything. As this song demonstrates.

[namelessperson]

I showed this to my elders

.. now they are seeking my blessings.

can never grow tired of hearing this classic simply awesome

[vickywalsh]

Released in 1982 (10 years before I was born) still my favourite song in 2021! I still sing my heart out to it when I hear it

[jaredwhite]

I can’t believe that I was only 2 years old when this song came out. Man the 80s were just such a time when life was so much more simpler & fun

[naadiacloete]

I get goosebumps, tears on my eyes, and a lump in my throat every time I hear this song. I live in Cape Town South Africa

[coramarquez]

I just love this song...timeless classic.

[celesteharvey]

Memories of childhood in the 80s, just good times🥰

[Realitycheck]

This song was released as I became a teenager. I travel back to so many memories and faces when I listen to this epic song.

[thefangirlray]

I've always thought the lyrics were I miss the waves down in Africa. My life is a lie

[sonimel]

Best way to display the lyrics as they goes along, without missing any. Good job 👍

[jeh]

Angel City Chorale brought me here. Awesome lyrics & melody that stays with you forever.

Panther Beer, Mission To the Seamen, cool breeze off the Atlantic on the ocean coastline...Kenya was a special place to me. This song takes me back 35 years about or more...A land far away from home where I had never been before. I bless the rains down in Africa...where I learned a little more about the world than I knew when I left Virginia oh so many years ago...
