Diamonds on the soles of her shoes

I. Love. This. Song.

Graceland was the very first CD that me and my mom bought when we got our first CD player. I remember jumping around the living room trying to mimic those sounds. "A-WA, A-WA RISH-NA-KA" I'd sing. I knew every word of every song on this album.

Even at nine-years-old I loved the world beat sound and how it just didn't sound like anything American and boring on the radio.
