Oh hell yes.

It's before my time, but it's one of my favourites from the 80s.

Deio, oomba deio, jambe oomba yo

Don't look any further!

I don't want your rhythm without your rhyme

originally,Chaka Khan was supposed to be the female vocalist on this song.I think Siedah Garrett worked out fine.

Such a classic. That bassline. It's in my Top 5 basslines of all time, I think.

Interesting. I know the bassline and drums from its use as a sample, but I only recall the Swahili-sounding chant and keyboard line from the original. Cool track.

Don't tell Kanye.

He'll want to re-do it, with Kim.

I've had this song on a Motown 80s compilation for a decade and never listened to it before. I played it about 30 times last night, definitely a jam.

My wife loves this song (for me, it's more like than love). The video is friggin hilarious. Dennis is always good for some ridiculous, over the top, over-singing facial expressions.
