I went to highschool at a boarding school in Kenya, and we sang this song every year at graduation. It definitely holds a special place in my heart. ❤️❤️❤️
There is a place in the African nation of Namibia where this song has been playing 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, since 2019. The rig that it is set up on is specifically constructed to never run out of power and to need very little maintenance. As of right now, the projection is that its going to be playing for at least 50 years before any part of the mechanism will need replacing.
@@lilys7431 WOW!! You remember the first run?! I saw the Empire Strikes Back at 4 year's old I fell in love with Darth Vader and Star Wars from then on.They became my most favorite films beside horror films. Darth Vader is my Sacred favorite of all time!!
Joseph Williams didn't sing on this tune. This was before he joined the band. The 2nd vocalist on this song is Bobby Kimball (David Paich, of course, was the first).
37 likes for something that is untrue - wow - please edit your comment - Joseph Williams was the Vocalist from 4 years later (1986). Bobby Kimball & David Paich do the vocals here.
Iconic 80’s! Pronounced Toe Toe- I highly recommend their song “Hold the Line” next- very different but excellent vibe as well- Mr. Video really liked that one! 😉. 💝💙👍✌️
"I bless the rains down in Africa".. Its written that In 2015, David Paich said that the song is about a man's love of the continent Africa, rather than a personal romance. He based the lyrics around a late night documentary with depictions of African plight and suffering. It had a lasting impact on him: "It both moved and appalled me, and the pictures just wouldn't leave my head. I tried to imagine how I'd feel about it if I was there and what I'd do." Jeff Porcaro added: "A white boy is trying to write a song on Africa, but since he's never been there, he can only tell what he's seen on TV or remembers in the past." Further lyrics are about a person flying in to meet a lonely missionary, as Paich explained in 2018. As a child, he attended a Catholic school, and several of his teachers had done missionary work in Africa. At the time, Paich had never set foot in Africa, and based the song's landscape descriptions from an article in National Geographic.
@@69JayBeeYou're so welcome, The song warms me whenever I hear it and as a HUGE of Jeff's drumming lead down the Rabbit hole, he passed at a way too young 36.
Bobby Kimball, the other guy that sings lead and is doing the backup and chorus for this song. Is from my hometown in Louisiana and is a close family friend. He's the one sitting on the floor. Ya'll should check out " Rosanna " and " Hold The Line ". Most of the musicians in Toto where great sought after studio musicians and played in Michael Jackson's " Thriller ". It's pronounced like the dog Toto 🤣
My communist raised Hungarian husband went to S; Africa back in 1975. He said it felt like home, of course it is where humanity was created.He said the people were different because they were so natural with big smiles.
I've seen them in the last few years.. and they still do not disappoint. And they play a variety of music, not just Hold the Line, Rosanna or Africa. They are more than that.. and they will tell you so. And they're still putting out albums. Listen to the song: "Burn" sung by Joseph Williams (son of famous composer John Williams).
No, They were in Africa, The Singer says "She's Comming in 12:45" Meaning he's waiting for his girl who wants him to leave Africa, But he doesn't want to leave Africa.
The first time I went to Kenya in 2009 I made sure to play this song on my I-Pod as we were touching down in Mombasa :) :) :) I loved the song before I ever went to Africa...I love it even more after going there many times...
I will totally do that one of these days when I finally make it there. I live in central Arkansas, and every time I go to Memphis about three hours away, I have to play ‘Walking In Memphis’ by Mark Cohn.
DEFENDING HALF - - waiting rooms at doctor's offices playing music that make you 'tired' ..... Half is right in that calming you down from anxiety comes across initially as a feeling of 'tired' but he really means RELAXED. .... just word choice .... I got you Half, I got you.
This is one of the great songs of all time. You will catch yourself singing it out of nowhere. When you hear it you can't not bob your head to it, and or just start singing it. So great.
They were researching/looking for the book that had the missing torn page of the map and someone didn’t want them to find it so someone shot the arrow, knocked over the oil lamp and set the place on fire.
The interaction between you two always makes me smile, you're just really sweet together. Thanks for providing a reliable bit of cheer to any day I feel is getting on top of me.
Rap = gangster criminal Metal = obsession with darkness Pop = be a slut & get high Rock = dealing with depression Most music died decades ago! It's all negativity now... Divides us in our own fears Small independent musicians... Can offer us something different, but they are hard to find good 1s with something worth hearing Peace
Tired of seeing comments like this, the mainstream isn't what it used to be but there are hundreds of thousands of current songs that are fantastic, it just doesn't fall into your lap from the radio anymore.
You never gonna hear anymore a group of skilled musicians like TOTO. consider yourself blessed for having this quality of talented people between the humanity.
the video I think is portraying Indiana Jones types searching for some magical land like El Dorado in Africa, trying to finish the puzzle/map in the book. But the mystic protectors of the land prevented them finishing their research and discovery by attacking the library and causing the clues and evidence to burn. love this song. It reminds me of my wife. On our first date, we were talking music and sharing our childhood favorite songs - she said there was one song back in the day she remembers rollerskating too all the time something about it raining in Africa and she never knew who sang it or where to find it (this was 1992 - so before internet searches.). I knew what song she meant and started singing it. She fell in love me that day. I had Toto's greatest hits on CD and loaned it to her. We're still together 29 years after that first date - just had our 24th wedding aniversary. This song forever holds that special place for us both.
I've known this song for a long time and i had heard of toto but i didn't know they were the ones that sang this song until a few months ago dope reaction fam🔥🎶🔥
Folks fall in love with Africa. My very close friends sister went over as part of an aid group in the early 90s.. and never left. She's been there over 30 years now.
As a teenager in Zambia in the 70' this was a track I knew well. But Ipi Tombi and Margaret Singana was my personal sound of Africa in the 70's. Never seen anybody react or even seem to know about them.
Love that song. My mom is Australian and she moved to Oklahoma u.s.a. in the 80s. The kids said it's her song lol. They should definitely react to this one if they haven't. I couldn't remember if they have or not
I love this song! I remember watching the video on mtv when it premiered. Toto is still one of my favorite bands. They’re very talented. The soundtrack to the original Dune is amazing. Gosh dang I miss the 80s. Good vibes! 🤗❤️🇺🇸 P.s. I always redirected videos in my head as a teen. The end of this one disappointed me and seemed unfinished-cause I always envisioned at the end of the video that the beautiful librarian transformed into an exotic African goddess who transported him to a temple in actual Africa-making all the wishes, of the nerdy guy holding the book and daydreaming, true....ima romantic lol.
My local morning radio show would play this every Friday for Africa Friday. You would be at a stop light and look around and see other drivers jamming out to it.
I read somewhere that this song was written after the song writter asked himself how one writes a song about a place he's never been but has always dreamed of going.
The guy had a piece of a page with a corner of a map. He found the book with the map and the corner torn out. Just as he found it, the spear was thrown.
just subscribed to the channel all the love from the uk'(wales) loving the channel) all what u said at the begigging od the vid is done lets goooooooooooooo
These guys are studio musicians to the max. The guitarist Steve Lukather there plays the main riff through Michael Jacksons Beat It. Some of them played over the whole Thriller album. He also wrote George Bensons "Turn Your Love Around"
And Steve Porcaro wrote: "Human Nature". Barry Gordy heard it, asked Toto if he could have it for Michael Jackson, they said yes, and the rest is history.
Hey guys lovely song toto Africa I remember this song WOW and your reactions so funny love your laugh😂 Jai and funny Half too 😂😂 i love the beat very cool 😎
Back to the future, that was 1983 that Africa was released! The reason you get this sound of familiarity is, these guys were studio musicians and played on hundreds of songs including Michael Jackson's Thriller. What if you listened to the music without watching the video?
Maaan I love you guys!! This is my 4th video I’ve watched and y’all have my dyin over here! Thanx for the great heartfelt laughs ❤️ 5:43 I see Emilio Estevez from The Breakfast Club
I love this song so much it reminds me so much of the 80s when growing up and means alot to me. But love the way you 2 are going threw this vidio with love so open love your dynamics between you to like me amd my husband ❤💕xxx
I think it recounts the story of young African missionaries who would enter training at 12/13 and on reaching adulthood, would be destined to walk the land alone, helping other tribes pray for rain for their crops. "There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do, I bless the rains down in Africa" etc.
Part of this was a take on Indiana Jones. He had a small corner of a page that was some kind of clue and he was searching for the book it had been torn out of and at the end when he finally found it, the fire started and the book got burned and he lost it.
I just wanted to say how much I enjoy your vids and my goodness your both beautiful souls. I could totally handle with you guy and have a cold one. Thanks for everything may God keep you and yours safe and healthy always .... BLM
Xzibit’s track “Heart of Man” ft. Anthony Hamilton from the MAN VS MACHINE album features a sample from this song. As far as TOTO is concerned, what a heavenly melodic song. Their singing talent and ability is unexplainable. What a great classic. I’ve been very fortunate to grow up in the 80’s with all of the great classics that we still love and listen to today. Blessings to both of you always!!!
Love to see you guys again. Been a minute. Love that you are reacting to music now too. Although I like Jai’s laugh so no laughs with Toto, too late 🤣🤣🤣
This song plays at Walmart & grocery stores...you've heard it but it was in the background while you were doing you. Yes, it's been in movies & TV shows as well.
Whoa, I just woke from a Ripvanwinkle nap. Put me out just like you said. Lol. Jeff Pocaro is the drummer for Toto and one of the best being one myself. Thanks you two.
When we were stationed in Africa, me and a couple of my buddies immediately started quietly singing the chorus when we walked off the carrier plane, to the tarmac, and feeling the heat, the only thing that could go through my head, was the chorus of this song!
1982 was a busy year for various members of Toto. They recorded for the late Donna Sommer, Michael Macdonald, Chicago + Michael Jackson. Yet, Toto still had time to record their most popular album IV! 🤯 Great song! Suggested next video: Rosanna. No, not related to Rosanna in Shakin, written by the late Eddie Money + Jimmy Lyons, sung by EM. Yes, David Paich wrote this about actress Rosanna Arquette! 🤯 Unfortunately, the widows of the Porcaro brothers do not permit surviving members Steve Lukather and David Paich to use the name Toto. 😡😡😡 RIP Porcaro brothers.

Man I love that.
Oh thats so sweet and lovely

It's not humanly possible to not smile and feel happy when Jai busts up laughing.
It's like a cure for whatever ails you.
I swear to it lol it's infectious
Totally agree. She really should be on tv... Her laugh is amazing!

Wow
Toto made the soundtrack for the 1984 movie Dune.
This is one of the greatest songs in the 80s
I didn't appreciate it then, I do now.😉👍❤
@@youtmeme to be fair Prince, MJ and Freddie Mercury ruled the 80s. But that decade had so many great hits.
It IS the greatest song of the eighties that and don't you forget about me by simple minds
The lead singer,Joseph Williams is the son of John Williams ,who created the music for the Star Wars films.
Didn’t know that, very cool. I saw the original in the theater 1st run still remember feeling the music in my whole body.

Do Toto, "Hold the line", it's fire!
Rosanna too
Agree on both

This is one of the great songs of all time. You will catch yourself singing it out of nowhere. When you hear it you can't not bob your head to it, and or just start singing it. So great.
If you listen to the words, you'll realize that this is a love-song to Africa ... longing to go back, to be there again.
They were researching/looking for the book that had the missing torn page of the map and someone didn’t want them to find it so someone shot the arrow, knocked over the oil lamp and set the place on fire.

Thanks for providing a reliable bit of cheer to any day I feel is getting on top of me.
Salute to the innocent music of the 80"s . It's not like that anymore in any genre
It wasn't all innocent , \m/
Salute to the stalker songs of the 80's that sounded innocent until you actually read the lyrics. ;)
I have to say the 70s were the best except for disco!
Rap = gangster criminal
Metal = obsession with darkness
Pop = be a slut & get high
Rock = dealing with depression
Most music died decades ago! It's all negativity now... Divides us in our own fears
Small independent musicians...
Can offer us something different, but they are hard to find good 1s with something worth hearing

Tired of seeing comments like this, the mainstream isn't what it used to be but there are hundreds of thousands of current songs that are fantastic, it just doesn't fall into your lap from the radio anymore.
Half & Jai, I love both your channels and I thank y’all for always making my day ❤️❤️❤️ Peace and Good Vibes ✌️
You should look up some toto live. Particularly Africa, Rosanna, and hold the line. Such great music which has a wide appeal
Jai laughs from her soul! Y’all make me smile! Love from Indianapolis! ❤️
Honestly, ive heard this being played at the dentist xD So true... Still lucky to hear it tho, was a good day :) hahaha
You never gonna hear anymore a group of skilled musicians like TOTO. consider yourself blessed for having this quality of talented people between the humanity.
