@stephanginther9051 3 года назад

I heard somewhere that this song was written to capture the mystery of imagining a place you've always dreamed of going but never have. The songwriter apparently had a huge fascination for Africa but, how do you write a song about a place you've never been? He sought to answer that question with this song....or so I heard.

@ivylasangrienta6093 3 года назад

Apparently he based the lyrics on a late-night documentary with depictions of African plight and suffering.

You're an empath, I'm sure of it. You feel music differently than most. Your appreciation for music is truly captivating and a joy for us. You definitely are on your way to a million and it's very well deserved. Now I'm shooting my shot while we're on an 80's vibe..... Tears for Fears - Head over Heels.

It's basically a song about nature, and how humans are part of it. Africa is often portrayed as a wild continent, when Africa is about as full of cities as anywhere. But in the 1800s there was an age of exploration and romanticism about Africa, with the safaris and exotic wildlife, and that's become a traditional way of viewing the land.

@user-or1ye3iz6d 3 года назад

@trendydelquendy 3 года назад

We all know it's about 12-year-old boys who are chosen to spend years training as missionaries, emerging as chaste adults to wander Africa praying for rain for the settlements they encounter? It's a deeply sad, lonely song. "Pretty boy, she's waiting there for you" is giving me goosebumps.
