The Anders:  The poll needs to be changed to allow for multiple votes.

Here is my top 3:
1. Black Bombaim - "Africa 2"
2. King Sunny Ade - "365 is my number/The Message"
3. Kokoko - "Malembe"

Same as Cristi for me, I did listen through the other day to the point that the nominations were done, now adding in the remainders.  Congrats to all for such a varied field!

I went back through the thread and found three songs which were the only ones posted by their users. These are now added to the poll. So: The poll is now officially open, and we have 14 songs altogether.

Sorry for missing these three songs in first place.

Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion.

  I have 14 as well, counting you.  Smile

If there are still people to nominate a song, they should do so as soon as possible.

  That's my favourite of yours this time, and will be one of the ones I'm considering for the final three plus honourable mentions, certainly.  I'll miss seeing your contributions, but you know you can always come back any time.

Oops, I failed to see that some other people also expressed their situation. (Just as I posted my previous post in The American Politics thread, accidentally, first! LOL)

So a +1 to what I quoted from suitkees' post.

Despite the fact that the videotape on which the youtube is based seems to be a bit washed out and thus doesn't give a very homogeneous sound quality, my nomination is: Pili Pili - Hoomba Hoomba.

We're indeed in a very bizarre period... I am also teaching some classes, but from this week on our university goes online, so I will do my classes by video conferencing. Not ideal, but we have to adapt. Let's hope it won't be for long and life can go back to normal for everybody. Stay healthy and keep courage!
