Wolof is a language spoken in Senegal, The Gambia, and Mauritania, and is the native language of the ethnic group of the Wolof people. HI RED YOU WERE ACCORDING TO WHAT WIKIPEDIA CONFIRMS QUITE RIGHT

and i was lore or less wrong

but well i knew they speak as principal language BAMBARA in Mali I just thought wronly they also have Wolof speakers there

Well now we all know better....

[ausendundeinenacht]

[ausendundeinenacht]

THEY REMIND ME OF PHILEMON AND BAUKIS....

Amadou & Mariam are a musical duo from Mali, composed of the couple

Amadou Bagayoko (guitar and vocals) (born in Bamako 24 October 1954)

and Mariam Doumbia (vocals) (born in Mali's capital Bamako 15 April

1958). The pair, known as "the blind couple from Mali" met at Mali's

Institute for the Young Blind, and found they shared an interest in

music So HEY All commitment phobics out there

LOOK AT them

Hear THAT IT gives PPL HOPE

[XxAnnaTheStrangexX]

Can anyone tell me what he is singing?

[ausendundeinenacht]

Dont kno

Anna

do they sing in Wolof maybe ?

do U love them as much as i do?

[XxAnnaTheStrangexX]

where do they speak wolof?

and yes! :) i do love them! the're great!

[redmaypril]

I don't think there are any Wolof speakers in Mali. Wolof is in Senegal...Most of the songs are Bambara, but they do others too.

i first learned of Amadou and Mariam today and am totally blown away. the most beautifully honest and heartfelt music i've heard in a looong time. words cannot describe the beauty of their music.

[swebnived]

This music is good. If you want to add another wonderful african artist, look up Oliver Mtukudzi, Tuku Music... Mabasa and Riongere are awesome songs to get into; slow and fast.

[rastaone01]

[koldorika]

zodzodzo , the better for us that listen to them, if this music is not found by 62 millions is because it is not supposed to.

[Maliaariadne]

their music gives me chills it is so beautiful.

[mossa19]

I thank God that these two magnificent people came together. The world has more beutiful moments because of them.

[ausendundeinenacht]

[twinks76]

I couldnt agree more zodzodzo, this music is real, and beautiful.:)

[zodzodzo]
