The other day I was making my ethnic grocery rounds at Brixton Market when I heard this out-of-this-world choir singing in a strange melodic language.
It turned out to be Mphefumlo Wami, a huge hit in South Africa by a young male singer Lundi. Given its ethereal beauty, it is strange that it didn't find its way to YouTube. I don't do this very often, but I simply had to buy the CD.
I figure the language must be Zulu. I wonder if anyone has the lyrics, it such a powerful song to sing to.
