I hate the song Africa by Toto, absolutely can’t stand to hear it. Anything even silence would be a better choice to walk out too.

There’s something deeply unsettling to know that there’s someone out there who genuinely thinks Happy better than Africa
I actually can’t think of a worse choice, maybe wheels on the bus or some other nursery rhyme? Even that would at least feel subversive

I always thought that the lyrics were not only a total trainwreck from a rhythmic perspective, but pretty culturally insensitive, even for the 80s. the music itself was ok, but kinda simplistic in a repetitive, poppy way. like many 80s pop songs, it was obviously the product of too much booze, coke, and resultant self-confidence.

And that’s exactly how Toto got the gig doing the soundtrack for the 1984 version of Dune.

The whole soundtrack sounds like something you could compose with a cheap synth keyboard

It was an expensive synth keyboard back in the '80s though.

How does it feel to actually have a scientifically proven wrong opinion? ~I’m just fucking with you. Please don’t get angry, my comment stands but it still just a joke bro~

Look, if you can’t bless the rains down in Africa, I don’t think we can be friends anymore
