They used to play Ismael Lo's music on Zimbabwe Television when I was a small boy. The music has stayed with me over 20 years later. I still find myself searching for his songs. New songs may come and go, but the old will remain nailed onto the walls of my mind. I don't understand the language, but my soul does.

La première fois que j'ai écouté cette chanson j'ai beaucoup pleuré c'est mon grand frère qui me l'a envoyé pour me dire que je lui manque depuis que je suis marié

Et pourtant Nabou Diagne n'est pas morte contrairement à ce que l'on pourrait penser en écoutant ce délice. C'est juste un hommage rendu à sa sœur mariée qui est partie chez son mari laissant un vide total dans la maison familiale.
