How does it feel to actually have a scientifically proven wrong opinion? ~I’m just fucking with you. Please don’t get angry, my comment stands but it still just a joke bro~
I always thought that the lyrics were not only a total trainwreck from a rhythmic perspective, but pretty culturally insensitive, even for the 80s. the music itself was ok, but kinda simplistic in a repetitive, poppy way. like many 80s pop songs, it was obviously the product of too much booze, coke, and resultant self-confidence.
There’s something deeply unsettling to know that there’s someone out there who genuinely thinks Happy is better than Africa
I actually can’t think of a worse choice, maybe wheels on the bus or some other nursery rhyme? Even that would at least feel subversive
Baby Shark
Nyan cat
Or crazy frog
Finally someone with taste
Nyan cat slaps

Hahaha wrong Africa
Look, if you can’t bless the rains down in Africa, I don’t think we can be friends anymore
If I did I’m afraid it would magically stop raining
I hate the song Africa by Toto, absolutely can’t stand to hear it. Anything even silence would be a better choice to walk out too.

And that’s exactly how Toto got the gig doing the soundtrack for the 1984 version of Dune.
The whole soundtrack sounds like something you could compose with a cheap synth keyboard
It was an expensive synth keyboard back in the '80s though.
I mean, it’s an expensive synth today too. You ever seen what pro 80s synths go for today?
