[OrangeJuice2910]

I'm addicted to this version now...

[karolinewraali]

wtf??? this was an ugly version

[garethirv]

@karolinewraali Do you know what you are talking about then?

[ondelamb]

Nice version. I still like the original a bit better.

Also check out Mike Masse's acoustic cover. His vocals are fantastic.

[FordFalcon1962nBlue]

this song is underrated because toto wanst a big band.. but i think it is a great songthen some better bands can think of

[chulcheis]

@FordFalcon1962nBlue Toto WAS a big band for me!

[FordFalcon1962nBlue]

@chulcheis yeah it is for me too but they didnt go anywhere? right or am i wrong

[zambiangal1]

wow love it! :)

[starmoa]

great!

[JoshMcRogue]

I wish there where more songs in the charts now with such majestic orchestration. I also composed and produced an African orchestral suit. It's in my channel called "Journey through Africa". Hope you like it :-)

[MaiHime98]

It`s verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrry good

[TheGoldenChile]

they should have made this the theme for Dune

[loneotaku]

I know the original song is a classic, but this I like this version better. It just sounds so much more magical with the orchestra.

[Littythefunbomb]

Greetings from Jefster! :D

[NanaMchedlidze]

@Littythefunbomb yea, Jefster brought me here :)))) loved it...

[MrCoolios15]

[name757]

dödödödödödödööö ;)

[albertsln]

Que bien se olle en sinfonica muy buena yesssssssssssss

[DisasterOnline]

I wonder who is doing the vocals in this version. Is it Bobby himself?

[ScunneredMan]

I have always liked this song, but this version is even more WOOOOW!

[dreddph]

wow!

[willbk51624]

Whatever happened to music like this man this sounds so good to the ears

[checkswing576]

This is the best version I've heard.

[Forcomputerclass2]

i can see myself walking down the street with a smile on my face listening to this song

[JesusFreak4Life2011]

7 people need to bless the rains more!!!

[captainblinker]

Nice! Reminds me of flying commercial,when it was great to fly.

[TheMuddyMudcrab]

J.D. in bath.... just awesome!

[nobuyuki1250]

サビに入る前のヒュルリラリ♪ってところがすごいイイ！！、右腕­に鳥肌がたった。

[bristolpengy]

Pure musical pleasure.

[bristolpengy]

Pure musical pleasure

[JanetEsq]

nice work!

[galloway6205]

@Mielievreter Yes, Yes I know. I was half asleep when I typed that

[Todosobrelosbeatles]

Creo que alguna vez soñé con esta version :D

[Beun007]

This is indeed really cool!

[galloway6205]

Africa was a beautiful Country;

Until we came :/

[liverbirdgal]

@galloway6205 Africa is a continent, my friend.

[galloway6205]

@liverbirdgal Oh shit I cant believe I put Country! XD

[Petr2512]

@liverbirdgal Hahahah

[beavisCS]

I bet this a ancient melody they found in Afrika :)

[Maxpoweredrummer]

Which orchest is it?

[jack44569]

mhm

[MrErnie318]

You can download this song with "free youtube to mp3 conventer" You can spell it in Google, there are links for the download!

[MrErnie318]

Geil! Vor allem kurz vor`m Refrain!

[davidcuriosito2]

5 people don't know why we bless the rain down in Africa

[rocksmeller99]

tremendous! powerful! majestic!

[artiesdinos]

@rocksmeller99 It's also one of the greatest songs ever written in the rock genre. While adult contemporary Christian music influences and motivates me through work of the Holy Spirit, I still find passion, and drive in songs of this calliber.

[CcEspin]

Wonderful Marcello!! thanks for sharing it! on facebook!! :)))XX

[welavaldez]

fantastic.. :D

[Aqwert76]

Das erinnert mich an meine Reise nach Afrika als ich 1J alt war... :')

[TeamJambolin]

whats the name of this version!!?!?! pls someone answer!

[TheMisTalented]

@TeamJambolin This version is called Africa ( classical Orchestra Version)

[TeamJambolin]

@TheMisTalented thx! but i can't find it nowhere

[spindrssd]

@TeamJambolin It's from Bobby Kimball's soloalbum. He was the leadsinger of Toto. The album is called Classic Toto Hits

[TheSeej23]

i would give my left nut to see this live

[amceagle1]

Makes me want to jump into my series one Land Rover & escape!!!!

[lancetop]

thanks for posting:)

[Mell477]

es...war....GROßARTIG!!!

[MrDannypoodle]

It's probably better than the real version!

[haubacke]

nice one !

[shauryagolf]

these comments do not do justice to the greatness of this song, this song sends u to another place in time,another place,, Is the greatest quaint feeling ever.. makes one want to be there in the song.

[apapke1]

It isn't rising like a lepress

rather

rising like Olympus above the Serengheti

[Bobby8842]

beautiful! Reminds me of mornings in Iraq in spring 2003.

[mcflyhi]

@Bobby8842

Can you tell me what was in Iray in spring 2003?

[Omega0710]

Besser als die "original" Version find ich. einfach nur grandios <3

[SkeetHRV]

beautiful song!

[Rockglam10]

<3

[check938]

2 people misclicked



[buddyboy138]

I think that this is ever better than the original. The orchestrations sound so nice, well at least I think so.

[superiornetworkinfo]

#Mlike Toto- Africa(Classic Orchestra Version)

[roscoeskillz]

Wow! That is so cool! I t would be awesome to see that live!

[ThePolerbearproducts]

EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Number1UltimateMJFan]

I hear Bobby Kimball's voice in the chorus and possibly Steve Lukather's voice too, the vocals in the chorus (and the drums) sound almost like the original recording, but I know the vocals were resung and the kettle drums were added. But that's not David Paich singing the verses. I wonder who that is singing in his place.

[fighter5091]

@Number1UltimateMJFan Probably some other person on the keyboards,, because they had like 3 different people who played that and the one on the keyboard always sings the verses

[TUBABIES]

BEAUTIFUL!

[AJRoberts87]

Can't stop playing this! Love it! :-D

[msfrydae]

Toto's africa, orchestra style I LUV IT!

[Br0TK4st3nY0urS3lf]

1Guy like Justin Bieber >_<

[IKoscherTVI]

@3Annika7

perhaps you can't read any passage of text well

cause background is similar (orange/yellow)

[veszesz]

It's the best version, I really like it!:)

[InaGuesmer]

yohhhhh I have got so damn ichy feet...

[amathus7]

love this song

[Aquameer]

this is music and not david guetta and mr gaga

[EAvsCD]

not so clever to chose yellow in this picture :D

so nice this song (=

[3Annika7]

@EAvsCD

Why is it not clever to use yellow??

[rocksmeller99]

would go good with the movie "The Snows of Killamanjaro", starring Gregory Peck and Ava Gardner, based upon the novel of the same name by Hemingway.

[No1chestnut]

i love those violins!!!

[ReaperOwnz]

Best version imo, by far!

[Tuohituomi]

On se hyvä. Parempi silloin kun en vielä saanut selvää sanoista.

[TheYuri999]

simple 0:00 / 4:54 AMAZING ! ! ! ! 

[comicmania2008]

Not heard this version of Africa before. It's really great!

[MySimone81]

[megahoundoom]

This song is TIGHT.

[sopsternchen]

I love this song. pure goosebumps

[Dragonfly2986]

[thecentauro28]

excelente idea esta cancion hubiera sido elegida por fifa para el mundial 2010

[imontes10]

@thecentauro28 me extraño q ni se acordaran de esta cancion para el mundial... todos cantando esa porqueria de waka waka

[Gaylover1903]

its to good to be true haha , its really good

[Gentechnik1]

Sau geil



[VercingetorixXIII]

This was pure, no suck my dick ho shit, was nice and peaceful... Humans can make music, the only creature on earth that can, I wonder if animals like dogs will ever evolve and start making their own music, can you picture it? a little pack of dogs making music and howling, maybe they already do when they howl, maybe they are singing.. we just dont understand it...

[afrodude1991]

@VercingetorixXIII lol what the heck!?!

[VercingetorixXIII]

@afrodude1991 well they do howl and seem to enjoy doing it, taking turns like they are singing... and sometimes when they howl some of them will jump up and down, maybe that is their music...

[TheSeej23]

@VercingetorixXIII never heard of whale song then?

[Highflyer1491]

GGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEIIIIIIILLLLL­LL kann man echt nicht vergessen echt schön gemacht Africa ist eins seiner BESTEN EVER

[Antoniobuster12]

@Highflyer1491 Muzik!

[Materazzi83]

Holy shit, I've been looking for this version for a couple of years

[GisherJohn24]

That's Bobby Kimball on the chorus right? I think I had this CD...He toured with some orchestra...

[Salissen001]

best song !! =) i love it !!!! =)

[Freaky739]

i love the song it´s perfect i love it 100 %

[DebraGermany]

not ToTo unless their scottish:)

[mikosoft]

The main vocal surely does not sound like anyone from Toto. The orchestra backing sounds amaizing though I was hoping the orchestra would do more in the last chorus. Where is this from?

[AScanberra]

@mikosoft

Actually, it sounds a lot like Bobby in his more recent live performances. Listen to some of the videos on here of Bobby singing it live and they are quite similar.

[roxxtp]

beautiful.

[Jerseysson27]

FANTASTIC! I HAVE NEVER HEARD ANYTHING SO MAJESTIC, this is the first time that someone did justice to this song with more meaning than ever!!

[MrStuuuhl]

WOW T_T

[MetGriller]

Toto is just one of the greatest musicians ever.

[Jiffmon2high]

trippin melodie!

One of best ever heard

[dutchy2amsterdam]

Wow.... It's just beautiful. Is there a MP3-version of this, or sonething? I really want to have it!

Amazing......

[Naniway84]

You can use the ,,free YouTube to MP3 converter´´

just google it and enjoy the music

[rocksmeller99]

tremendous! movie score quality!

[666waterwolf]

great song

[atbnorge]

A true anthem!

[egui35]

A M A Z I N G !!!... NO COMMENTS !

[secretivebus]

That's just wonderful. Can I download that from anywhere, or is it on any CD?

[Juliaflo]

COOL!

[amsaldy]

[Firefox90]

[nibiru2012ification]
