ReplyDeleteI can hear the electric keyboard, the drums, the guitar, the saxophone, the trumpet, the maracas, and a lot of vocals. I think that there’s not a lot of singing and that all the people playing instruments are awesome because they can still play their instruments while the other instruments are playing which, for me, is pretty hard to do.
ReplyDeleteMy opinion on the video that the class was assigned to watch and listen to was not that diffrent then the music that I listen to every day . Every day or almost every day my dad plays it inside of his car . I have been listening to this since I was a little kid . Since the language that the people use in most of their songs are Euroba and that is the language that my mom , dad grandmom and Sodiq speak I understand most of it . I can speak Euroba to but not as good as my brother .
ReplyDeletei like it because it has diferent kind of instroments. like the jembe THE GUITar and the different kinds of drums and rain sticks and alot of backround singers he had a big band 20-30 people in there band he was famuse in africa he was veary famuse to the african people......... well thats all ive got to say... bye...
ReplyDeleteWell I like how it started out and the instruments that I can hear is maybe maracas and trumpets and maybe guitars and a piano. Also I like the song because it sounds a little techno type of song. My third opinion on the song is that there's no singing in it but I guess that it's just a song that you can just listen to. Then also I think that the song is a good African song and the instruments are different from ours but there are some instruments that are similar to the ones in the US it's just that they make it sound different to make it sound like it's different. Also think that the song is a type of song that anybody can listen to because there's not that much singing.
ReplyDeleteI like this song and its so cool that the gitar I like there song I like when they sing and when they sing sounds so nice. I like the gitar and other different instment when they put it together it sounds geart.I like there song when the play the song I like there dress it so shiny there disen sounds so cool.
ReplyDeleteI really like the video it had cool instruments like the dejeme and the rocking gutiar. i also like the music it made me very realexing and it had a awesone beat and intresting.I really want to meet him and when i go there i want him to teach me how to play the dejeme and the gutiar.
ReplyDeleteI really like it and I think that he is so cool with his band. What I think of the video is that i really love it and I was listening to it in resl life so I can can just tell them in real life. I love the sound of there insterments playing at the same time that they are sing. What I wish that I can do is just see them in real life so I can have them play with there cool insterents. that was the best thing that i ever heard.
