M, Cool vid, & very well done version!
I always liked it; kind of an anthem song from
the early '80s.
Thanks for the link, big Mike.

Way cool is right. Great video, thanks for posting.

I didn't know of the site it was hosted on, but the linked page had several other good videos in the most popular category that I had seen years ago, and which were well worth viewing again. I particularly liked the Antwerp train station (Sound of Music), Medieval Tech Support, and Did You Know, as well as the Evian Roller Babies, which I had never seen. Good link.

Very cool. Check out the letter they got yesterday:

Perpetuum Jazzile - Vokalna Ekstaza

TOTO loves us 07.07.09

Today we've received this email from Mr. David Paich ...

**********************************************

Greetings!

My name is David Paich. When I wrote Africa I never dreamed of hearing such an innovative rendition. All I can say is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am truly honored that you not only would arrange a choir version of the song but the time and effort into creating REAL MAGIC! I have NEVER received so many emails from artists friends and colleagues on a singular performance of a song.

My hats off to all of you.

I know my co-writer Jeff Porcaro would have shared the same feelings. I know my band TOTO does.

Again, thanks you for such a wonderful gift.I would love to meet everyone sometime soon and maybe work together.

Regards.........David

That was great. Just facinating. Always loved the song and they did wonderful justice to it, without any instruments but their voices!

Fantastic!
