Always one of my favourite songs. Youssou N'Dour is a much under-rated performer.
This was all over the radio in the 90s. 🙂
Always loved this. It makes me feel some strange emotions. To me it is a very powerful and mesmerising song. Thanks for covering this.
Thanks for this, Youssou N'Dour's voice is hauntingly beautiful.
Thanks Justin! As a Swede, I enjoyed this in particular, although of course this song was an international hit. Neneh Cherry is a Swedish artist, but her stepfather was American trumpet player Don Cherry, where she got the name from. She is also half sister of Swedish artists Eagle-Eye Cherry and Titiyo Jah.
Producer Christian Falk is also Swedish.
Sorry to go on about the Swedish connections.
Back to Gentle Giant ❤
Neneh cherry is Swedish? 😂😂😂
@@alexandersteffen7805 She is indeed. Why?
@@olabergvall3154 Since she had moved to England in her mid-teens, by the time she became successful she had acquired a London accent and so a lot of people who did not know her backstory will have assumed she was British.
@@lashersthat's not why that freak asked. You should be more aware of fascists and white supremacists
Neneh has done a lot of collaborations with very different artists. There were Michael Stipe (R.E.M.), GangStarr, Tricky, Robyn and a whole album with swedish free jazz trio The Thing ("The Cherry Thing").
One of my favorites is a song she did with The The called "Slow Train To Dawn".
Hi Justin. Dave from London, in the November Rain. Love this song, which was a big hit single in the UK. Great that you played the album version, which has the violin solo. Neneh Cherry has a few hits too, such as Buffalo Stance and my favourite, Manchild.
P.S. my song ref November Rain is by Guns N Roses.
Like you read: this did very well in the charts in various European countries. And it was played A LOT on MTV Europe back then. And yes, Neneh Cherry also had some hits you might check some time.
Regarding West African names - with an apostrophe, it's a hard 'n', without, it's soft. I found this out due to my hobby, keeping specialist tropical fish which often have population names taken from the nearest town or village to where they were caught.
Youssou N'dour makes this song and his voice works well with Neneh Cherry. Has a cool flow and powerful lyrics. Not my usial somg, but i enjoy hearing it.
Wolof is the other language Youssou N'Dour sings in. That song was a big, big hit here in France.
Now that was fun. I also knew him just from colabs with PG, but after listening to the first seconds I knew instantly that I know this song. It was a big hit in Europe, or at least in Central Europe. You can hear this on air quite a lot where I live.
If you want to listen to a short song, take "First Inaugural adress to I.A.C.E Sherborne House" from Robert Fripp, it lasts 3 seconds and contains a whole speech. Cheers from Austria!
Bravo ! His "The Lion" album is wonderful.
In the early eighties Neneh Cherry was in the group "Rip Rig + Panic" (named after a Roland Kirk album) who would certainly be worthy of your attention, mixing post-punk with elements of free jazz and reggae. A good place to start would be the track "You're My Kind of Climate".
RR&P was probably the beginning of Neneh's long-standing Bristol connection.
I would suggest "Sunken Love", because it sounds a bit like what was called trip hop a decade later.
I remember this song, in the 90s it was often played on MTV.
This sounds as brilliant now as it did when it came out - Youssou N'Dour and Neneh Cherry sound perfect both separately and together. You're really killing it today, KP - first Lost in the Supermarket and now 7 Seconds has been a wonderful start to the day so thank you. (And if you haven't come across Neneh Cherry before, try Buffalo Stance from her debut album which was a monster hit in 1988.)
Not sure if you've done "Shaking the Tree" by N'doir and Peter Gabriel, but it's great. It was the wedding song for my 1st wife and I. You'll like it. ❤
Jayski, you're 99% certain to enjoy a Neneh Cherry track called Manchild.
Great choice again JP
I remember when it came out. It was a classic then and its classicness is undimmed.
Great song
Olá, Eduardo here! 😊
Youssou n'Dour sang with the Rail Band, one of the most important bands from western Africa in the seventies. Maybe one should check it, if interested. (I prefer Bembeya jazsa National - incredible and hipnotic)
I vaguely remember this. The fact that I had forgotten all about it until I heard it start in this video must say something about it.
I don't hate it, though. A few weeks from now I will probably forget all about it again and not be aware that it exists until I accidentally hear it again.
This one is easy.
Youssou N'Dour sang with Peter Gabriel.
Gabriel’s 2nd album was produced by Robert Fripp.
Fripp teamed up on many records with Brian Eno, who composed the epics Here He Comes and Backwater.
Neneh Cherry lost to Milli Vanilli for best new artist.
Ouch.
I'm sure I read somewhere that the title refers to the average amount of time it takes humans to form an opinion - and possibly a judgment - about another person they meet. How first impressions can last, in other words.
Ooo interesting! Ty Theo
😁👍.✌&❤
Don’t drop the baby -the Judybats
Youssou N’Dour is a superstar. Try Li Ma Weesu.
For a few seconds (seven maybe) I thought you'd done a reaction to a track by the US punk band 7 Seconds.
Beautiful, trance like track that I'm always happy to get lost in and hear again. Very atmospheric. If you want a more humorous take on a youngster's first impressions of the world they've been born into, check out the new Sparks single 'Nothing Is As Good As They Say It Is', built around a great pop hook and very funny lyrics. Good vi de0 too. Don't forget to check your e ma il by the way! ;)
Just a great example of two very different artists combining their talents to produce something very different, amidst the boredom of the media machine known as Brit Pop.
didn't he become president of a country?
This is not at all like Youssou's stuff, it's a one-off to try and get an international hit: and it worked. For me, it's a run of the mill pop tune, a real waste of his talent. If you want to get a feel for his music, try anything else, lots of good stuff: Set, Eyes Open, The Lion, Joko, or the rest of his The Guide album, they're all great in showcasing his amazing voice and complex but irresistible music.
Is this the original that Halsey covered ?
Yes, this the original - and FAR SUPERIOR - version. It was co-written by N'Dour and Nenneh Cherry
Meh, I didn't hate it in '94, but didn't particularly like it either. It's a decent tune but pretty bland.
A welcome change to the Blur's and Menswear's, ad nauseam that dominated the charts during this period!
@@Owlstretchingtime78I suppose it was, though back then I listened to not too much outside of classical and metal.
I don't know how you do it JP listening to this junk.
