    Tonight I was feeling reaaally crap and preparing to spend the evening on my couch crying and listening to music, but the this tune started on my youtube random playlist and at first I thought : oh that sounds nice. Then I felt the knot in my chest loosing, then my head startet to go with the beat, then my hips started to wiggle and finally I had to get up off my couch to dance alone in my room. And I danced through the whole thing!! Now I feel just happy and alive and thankful that your music saved my little heart tonight! I thank you a lot for feeling this groove and sending it out to the world! Thank you thank you, you're awesome! Impossible to keep still with your beats.

    I couldn't even start to count the number of times I've played this over the last couple of years (often on a 10X loop) and it never ceases to astound me. This has to rank as one of the greatest grooves of all time. Total brilliance.

      @@daveomacron4301 Yup, "We Out Here" was the track that brought me to Kokoroko in the first place, then I started digging around and found more gems like their version of Fela Kuti's "Colonial Mentality" and Nérija's "Fisherman", all featuring much the same musicians playing along with fab bandleader Sheila Maurice-Grey! ua-cam.com/video/cPdjGnx4tDA/v-deo.html
