  • Most of Civ IV's music is part of the classical canon. It would have been cool if they did some of the original songs that were in I, II, and III...

  • Baba yetu, yetu uliye

    Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina!

    Baba yetu, yetu, uliye

    Jina lako litukuzwe.

  • I wish this version was the one on the album. The dual vocalists trading lines and harmonizing around the 3:30 mark really brought this performance up to an amazing level.

  • the more I listen to it the more I like it.

    thanks Christopher.
