Toto – Africa

Toto, or TOTO, is an American famous rock band formed in Los Angeles and they released this song in the year 1982.

They titled it “Africa” which seems to talk about a colourful and wonderful continent, Africa. As for me, the singer(s) is trying to express his or her personal experience with the motherland, Africa.

However, Toto’s song Africa is about a deep love and fascination for the continent of Africa.

It’s a song filled with mystery and a feeling of awe. The lyrics are sung from the perspective of someone who feels a strong connection to Africa, even though he’s far from home.

He describes hearing drums echo in the night and the sounds of the animals, which makes him feel a unique pull to the land of Africa. Enjoy it!!
