I saw your reaction on the song of The River. I also had heard this song for the first time in a movie, but I can't remember what movie it was. I'm looking so long for this movie. Please let me know if you do know the title of this movie.
@yievonne It is called Down Came a Blackbird. Starring Laura Dern, Vanessa Redgrave & the late Raul Julia (his last film) A deeply moving film about survivors of political torture. This song is played during a love scene of Laura Dern with her deceased lover who was also a victim....she imagines he is still with her & this song is playing & when she opens her eyes & reality hits her it is heartbreaking to watch. Brings tears to my eyes even now....
Amazing, beatiful!

The phrase "Nafikiria kurudi shamba" was the title of a hit song recorded by Jamhuri Jazz Band of Tanzania in 1970. It is also on youtube.

great - thanks for the video. Suggest that you might try using spell check, however.

Surely Geoffrey Oryema and Peter Gabriel are kindred SPIRITS!
