LYRICS
I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in twelve-thirty flight
Her moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say: "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you

I LOVE the sound range of the electric instruments! These young men are such awesome musicians to begin with, and then to hear their various talents enhanced by such marvelous things as electric violin, bass, and cello---even for this "elderly" woman who has mostly heard traditional instruments all her life, this is FABULOUS!!

The best cover of this song, who needs a singer when the instruments speak for themselves... amazing!!
@robertacierno2803 2 ай бұрын
Mike Masse. An acoustic and a bass, 2 guys singing. Better cover. And Brooklyn duo with the Dover quartet, I’d argue is better than this, and they don’t have drums. I’m pretty sure this isn’t simply three or even four, I hear keys.

Okay, I expected a cover of just their usual Violin, Cello and Bass - so running all those different settings on electric versions feels like cheating.... BUT I AM TOTALLY OKAY WITH THIS! That was awesome and I loved every second of it!
