"Wock" was a group original from Sénégal, with his two leaders Pape Abdou Seck and Dimitri Reverchon, Pape Abdou Seck, a Senegalese poet and singer, and Dimitri is a cultural and musical nomad. Born in Russia but raised in the French town of la Ciotat, In 1997, Wock's first single release, "Sama Amie", opens their album "Kemaan". This song Sama Amie is a fusion of french wolof that means, "My friend", "Mon ami", "Mi amigo", "Mio amico", "Sama xarit".
Buenisimo soy de argentino y estoy muy feliz de esto al fin se el nombre de esta cancion que me llego al alma y vamos el rally dakar argentina-chile!!!!
@HapitokP Yeah I know same, It looks Soo Fun, i mean I'm all for Adrenaline but I know nothing on how to get in, like where would you go to as in team wise and that stuff
E porque não 2 grandes rallys num ano? Tipo, no inicio do ano ser o verdadeiro Dakar (capital do Senegal, que eu saiba não existe mais nenhuma) e a meio do ano, ou mesmo após o 1º (aproveitando a logistica e tudo) faze-lo a América do Sul...
Mas sinceramente pah...Dakar mesmo Dakar é em Africa... E para além disso pode-se encontrar centenas de caminhos diferentes, seguros e com bem mais dificuldade em vez de andar as voltas em Antofagasta, Iquique, Copiapó...
@RZKKorin yes it will go back to africa they just need that the place will be safe for drivers, the rally was called paris- dakar because they departure from paris and arrive in dakar, some times was lisboa dakar i think
@MrXerjyo and still the finish line was dakar no?) i use to watch every race Paris-Dakar , the real one, but now i'm not interested in it anymore, it's boring) hope it will come back)
the dakar but never returns to africa! by insecurity, land apart in america have much tougher than the technology is there and as ADVANCE and development of prototypes that require it ....
i think nowadays Dakar in Amerika is not as interesting and hard as it was in Africa...now its like (i really dont remember the name) rally Morocco or smt else.I think in future itll come back in Africa!DAKAR FOREVER FROM RUSSIA!!!
I have been looking for this song for years. Just thought to check youtube. I miss the old Dakar Rally. The African landscapes and photography were breathtaking.
@aqu32 Hope it does mate, hope it does... When it was in Africa, there weren't any spectators, the drivers couldn't even think that if they would get stuck, some spectator would help him out with a 4x4 like now... They crossed almost untouched places :)
Since first hearing this great song on the 2004 Dakar telecast, I'd been searching in vain to find info on it...I should've known it would be on YouTube! Thanks for posting.
why every song should be in English? I think that the original, senegalese version is sufficiently well & holds specific climate of dakar rally ... regards
yea, Dakar definitely should be in Africa, but you know, security is the most important thing and until terrorists will be still dangerous this rally will be organizing in South America
who know the lyrics of this great song, it is france or african(senegal) lyric? link please
