This kind of thing feels like a heartbeat for me. I can't put words to it, which is so rare, because I always have something to say. Home will always be home, even if I'm trying to move away. SA is so special to me.

I’m not sure if they also did peace train with Cat Stevens, or if that was a difference South African group but that song also has those really vibrant vocal melodies unique to South Africa.
