I'm not a fan of national anthems, but somehow, as was the case this morning, I had Nkosi Sikelel' I'afrika, the South African one, running through my head. I blame the lecturer who made me analyse its harmony years ago, while he gave everyone else European anthems. OK, I don't blame him at all, because it's at least not bland, and pretty catchy as far as national anthems go, plus multilingual, of course; though I only understood 2 of the 5 languages on my 1st listen (Afrikaans and English). My Xhosa and Zulu are very very basic, and my Sesotho nonexistent.
This concludes this random story about my brain jukebox on shuffle. #music#SouthAfrica#NationalAnthem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBKjWRjwMkY
