  • never gets old

  • @doffen901 I used to think he wasn't able to listen to this in 1998, then I took time to the knee.

  • scrubs got me here too!!

  • Vice City!

  • Axis of Awsome brought me here :) Love it!

  • IF anyone can put a link on here then that would be ACE! thanks in advance guys! (it deffo was on youtube as of a year or so ago, unless it got removed :( I tried searching under tot africa parody / spoof etc but no joy....

  • Can anyone help please? I'm LOOKING for a version of this song, "Toto - Africa" but it was a spoof version that was REAL FUNNY. It was basically the same video, but someone had dubbed over the lyrics and changed them to fit the visuals of the song for example, the opening lyrics were something like, "I grew my beard especially for this night, cos I got a hot african secretary with massive glaaaaassssesssssss" etc etc. It was really funny but ive searched youtube many times and cant find it..

  • @scuffer1983 I think you're looking for the "literal version"? Sadly it's been blocked on YouTube along with other literal versions of music videos. At the moment I can't find it on another site :(

  • @LaurelVentura ahh yes, that is the one im looking for thank you! googled it and seems you cant view it in the UK! :( something to do with SME rights apparently? boooo it was funny that video!

  • I'm listening to this and i'm only 13 years old, and guess what, SCRUBS got me here..."Hmmm, mango body butter!"

  • im a 15 year old girl and im in love with this song :D

  • @xLMFABx Same!

  • Like if American Dad got you here. (Refugee Camp)

  • Love the song, but i didnt follow the story in the video.

  • I have many leather bound books

  • I have to say that Jason derulo got me searching for this song as I have heard the chorus somewhere before, then I found it and it brung back so many memories it's unbelievable I actually love this song (:

  • Fajna piosenka.

  • JASON DERULO COPYINF AGAIN!?

  • i grew up listening to this song...

  • i must say i really like the jason derulo version.. but original is original <3

  • @KamiNoKazoku Yeah actually cant argue with that!

  • @iHombre7 hi 5

  • This is one of those songs that will never get old. Love it.

  • Comment removed

  • Thumbs up for Jeffster !!

    

  • the guy totally shows that he's lip singing, but the song is awesome! ♥

  • i m 12 nd wat is this

  • This song is great! My choir is doing an acapella version of this. I heard this song a lot when I was younger, but for some reason I only think of the Anthropology rap on Community whenever I hear this song.

  • never knew the lead singer was the son of the dude that composed the music for Star Wars...

  • @StoneColdKicksass15 i have listened and like this song for as long as i can remember by the way im 14

  • i am young and this song is good cuz this song is soo old

  • Comment removed

  • reminds my of vice city, from the time games could be good, even if they had crappy graphics!

  • Faye and Angus... :)

  • @IzeTheJukebox Yes. Exactly.

  • this song is epic

  • Why do people assume younger generations are "trying to be cool" by listening to music like this? Oh I'm sorry, forgot Toto made this song exclusively for old farts.

  • @ReebaShmeeba

    because they add their age in posts like im 15 but i like toto blablabla nobody fucking cares that u are 15

  • One of my favorite song of all time!

  • Wait. THIS WAS ON GTA?!?!?!!? now all these annoying troll's and responder's comments make sense.....

  • LOVE THIS SONG!!!!

  • Jason Derulo - Fight for you = Toto - Africa

  • CHECK OUT THE PERPETUUM JAZZILE VERSION OF THIS!!!!!!!!!!!

  • this reminds me of that wonderful scene of scrubs
