Infelizmente é impossível não observar se a realidade ! Éramos muito mais felizes, os tempos e às pessoas mudaram... E não para melhor ! A prova estam na qualidade das canções. Enfim... Todavía vale buscar pelo lindo e pelo amor. Roberto , 07/07/23.
E verdade gostei do seu comentário mais ainda existe amor em algumas pessoas mais tudo que era bom estar se acabando nossas músicos algumas de nossas amizades seja muito feliz roberto👏👏👏
The fact that Toto can perform Africa all these years later and sound that good makes you wonder what is wrong with today's artists and musicians?Are they lazy?
Just not as talented. They never were forced to practice/get the talent as much as groups used to. They can instantly be found on UA-cam for example before they had to fight for success.
Probably one of the best songs ever written in the 80s. The 80s had so many great songs it’s hard to think what would be the best songs, but “Africa” would definitely be on that list.
One of the great happy, sing along songs of all time. And those people waited all night for that unforgettable once in a lifetime chance to sing Africa with Toto. Singing their hearts out and smiling from ear to ear.
Someone I know once observed that this is one of those rare songs that is never unwelcome. No matter where you are, when this song comes on, everyone is happy it does.
Quisiera ver al supuesto rey del pop Bad Bunny, llenando un estadio así en Europa, jamaaaaas, Toto a cualquier lugar del mundo que vaya llena cualquier estadio.
its amazing. you do not see one single black guy in this video, BUT this song is a love song for the black people and its home, you can feel whats all bout, itsmarvelous
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you Мне будет очень трудно расставаться с тобой, There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do И сто человек ничего не смогли бы с этим сделать. I bless the rains down in Africa Я благословляю дожди в Африке. Gonna take some time to do the things we never had Мне потребуется некоторое время, чтобы сделать то, чего у нас никогда не было.
Crianças e jovens de hoje vão dizer o mesmo das músicas que serão gravadas e publicadas daqui a 30 anos. Boa música para eles será a porcariada de hoje.😂 Mas você está certo de uma forma geral. Procurando bem você encontrará boa música contemporânea em todo lado menos nas grandes gravadoras internacionais.
I was crying in my room, with scars and bruises, and He heard my cry to Him, I got healed, I have a stable job and a healthy pregnant wife! And we're expecting a boy, and it's all because of Him. Praise the good ol' God
Conocí al grupo Togo, cuando tenia 16 años por allá, por el año 81,siempre me gusto su música, un admirador, de toda la vida, soy de la generación del cassette, bonitos recuerdos, saludos desde Chile.
I hear the drums echoing tonight But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation She's coming in, 12:30 flight The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation I stopped an old man along the way Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you" It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I bless the rains down in Africa Gonna take some time to do the things we never had The wild dogs cry out in the night As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company I know that I must do what's right As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti I seek to cure what's deep inside Frightened of this thing that I've become It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I bless the rains down in Africa Gonna take some time to do the things we never had Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I bless the rains down in Africa I bless the rains down in Africa (I bless the rain) I bless the rains down in Africa (I bless the rain) I bless the rains down in Africa I bless the rains down in Africa (gonna take the time) Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
I was in the Indian Ocean when these guys put on a concert for the crew of the USS Midway on the flight deck. We were anchored off the coast of...Where else...AFRICA!
Esta canción es como un himno para todo el mundo... Los toto's quedaron marcados para toda. La vida linda canción que nos enseña el amor porque somos creados por Dios... Incluyendo a la banda.. De. Los. Hermanos Pocaro's... Lukater y Ricie paht... ❤❤❤
Show! 2 de gosto de 2024! Éramos felizes e não sabíamos! Essa música tem muita energia! Um grande abraço à todos! Me chamo Stela, tenho 64 anos e moro no Brazil em São Paulo.
Ohhhh man...... This has been 1 of my ALL time favorite songs. I have even managed to turn my daughter onto songs/groups from my teenage years & earlier and this is 1 of her favorites as well.
I live in South Africa. I love this song. I always imagined being in the African bush somewhere at sunset sitting on a land rovers roof watching the sunset and lions with this incredible song playing. Wow that would be great. Thank you Toto
What's truly amazing is that composer and lead singer David Paich created this wonderful song without ever having been to Africa. When the band finally did get to Africa they received so many compliments on how it captured the spirit of the continent.
Ese concierto estuvo increíble.. imagínense si estuvieran en México o Brasil.. la gente estaría saltando y aplaudiendo al ritmo de la mejor banda del mundo,, arriba TOTO ❤👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Santo cieloo! esa,cosa es lo mejor de mi tiempo
As pessoas mudaram radicalmente pra pior especialmente com essa pandemia! Alguma coisa afetou o bom senso e o respeito.
Simplemente bello😢
It's incredible that a handful of talented musicians can lead thousands of people in bliss.
Lets replace politicians with musicians!!!
AMEN!!!! Words of Wisdom!! Well Said!!
Tem alguém do Brasil ouvindo Toto a melhor Banda do Planeta ???
Sempre
Eu!!!!!!
Eu!! Toto é daho
Eu aqui em SJC!!!!!
Eu agorinha msm
The fact that Toto can perform Africa all these years later and sound that good makes you wonder what is wrong with today's artists and musicians?Are they lazy?
Most are not even real singers, they just put up an act.
no ear training -- learned more from electronics instead of from human beings beside them -- that's my theory, anyway
Las generaciones actuales no saben de música lastima que no hayan vivido los mejores tiempos 😊😊😊
Just not as talented. They never were forced to practice/get the talent as much as groups used to. They can instantly be found on UA-cam for example before they had to fight for success.
👏👏TOTO, ÁFRICA, UMA DAS MELHORES CANÇÕES DE TODOS OS TEMPOS, GÊNIOS.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
El grupo Toto entró en una década prodigiosa la década de los 80,excelente agrupación musical
Probably one of the best songs ever written in the 80s. The 80s had so many great songs it’s hard to think what would be the best songs, but “Africa” would definitely be on that list.
...or...ever!
Gotta put John Parr's St Elmoes Fire in that discussion
Não sei o que vc falou😮😊😊😊😊 mas essa música é de arrepiar!! e eu vivi issooooo🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉.!!!!!
Olha o batidão!!!! Parece que se inspirou no Brasil né!!?🍀🍀😊😊😊🥰🥰🥰🥰🥳🥳👋👋👋👋
So right my friend so many brilliant song's othe 80s just glad I was around to enjoy them.
Nothing will ever compare to '80s music!

Ich bin hier, wo auch immer das ist
Aqui santa Inês interior do Maranhão, música boa não tem fronteira
Olha a qualidade da música e da performance de todos eles….simplesmente incomparável com os artistas de hoje
Stai parlando della famiglia porcaro e lukather paich collettivamente I migliori musicisti del mondo
Verdade velho❤
Qualidade e talento....a musica de hj, me da nauseas, principalmente a brasileira, o que me entristece mais ainda😢
One of the great happy, sing along songs of all time. And those people waited all night for that unforgettable once in a lifetime chance to sing Africa with Toto. Singing their hearts out and smiling from ear to ear.
Someone I know once observed that this is one of those rare songs that is never unwelcome. No matter where you are, when this song comes on, everyone is happy it does.
Toto uma das minhas preferências...qualidades musical sem comparação..
Quisiera ver al supuesto rey del pop Bad Bunny, llenando un estadio así en Europa, jamaaaaas, Toto a cualquier lugar del mundo que vaya llena cualquier estadio.
What an incredible arrangement, you don't see that anymore nowadays
Os jovens de hoje amam sim esses classicos,mts nesse show ,é lindo demais ❤.
Estoy tratando de imfluenciar en mis nietas, aún pequeñas ...
its amazing. you do not see one single black guy in this video, BUT this song is a love song for the black people and its home, you can feel whats all bout, itsmarvelous
There are only a handful of songs from the 80’s that can truly stir the emotions and innocence of that time.
This is one of them.
❤❤❤love so much the 80' s music, we hâd hit after hit , the Best of the Best were there, life was good and purely innocente in the 80's....
Olha a plateia cheia e nenhum celular q tempo bom
Mais alguém ouvindo hoje 27 de julho de 2024? Eu amooo!❤ nao canso de ouvir
Women love this song, clearly, and it''s great to see the ladies out there enjoying themselves for once.
高校時代によく聞きました!
totoといえは、Africaですね
Nasci em 1986
Tive o privilégio de ouvir musica de qualidade nos anos 90
Infelizmente essa geração 2000 não terá essa experiência 😢
Oi vai ouvir os anos 70 vai seja feliz!
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
Мне будет очень трудно расставаться с тобой,
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
И сто человек ничего не смогли бы с этим сделать.
I bless the rains down in Africa
Я благословляю дожди в Африке.
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
Мне потребуется некоторое время, чтобы сделать то, чего у нас никогда не было.
Yes
Uma das melhores músicas dos anos 80. Bem diferente desta porcariada de hoje
Crianças e jovens de hoje vão dizer o mesmo das músicas que serão gravadas e publicadas daqui a 30 anos. Boa música para eles será a porcariada de hoje.😂
Mas você está certo de uma forma geral. Procurando bem você encontrará boa música contemporânea em todo lado menos nas grandes gravadoras internacionais.

Africa is the song of freedom..... Every person which sing this song is a free person...
Anos 80 ,90….maravilhas da música!!!!!!
Foi a década da música e dos grandes artistas!!!
All humans came from Africa.
We all have the same ancestors.
Love ❤and Peace🕊️🙏
A lot of young people in the audience, that's awesome
bet lot of parents took their kids to show as a flex lol looked fun
Conocí al grupo Togo, cuando tenia 16 años por allá, por el año 81,siempre me gusto su música, un admirador, de toda la vida, soy de la generación del cassette, bonitos recuerdos, saludos desde Chile.
Yeah Togo..............................
Se, qué es Toto, soy humano nostálgico.

I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in, 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside
Frightened of this thing that I've become
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa (I bless the rain)
I bless the rains down in Africa (I bless the rain)
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa (gonna take the time)
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
Thank you, could sing along ❤️
I seek to heal what's deep inside. Frightened of this thing that I've become...
One of the best songs in history👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💜
Indeed. The tune, vocals and instrumentations
Such a beautiful song. I was only a little kid in the 80s ,and would always listen to toto. They're still the best even after 40 years
Anos 80 não tem pra ninguém, musicas de ótima qualidade, uma benção para nossos ouvidos....hoje tenho pena desta juventude.....
Não se preocupe, hoje eles tem... o Pablo Vitar ! (mas hoje sabemos que choquei empurrou essa m)
I grew up my teenager years with this song....
Thank you Toto!
Always bring me back the memories of those years
Quem me dera assistir um show desses,,,,,,quando vem ao Brasil ,,,,?
This is one for the ages, no doubt Africa will play for the generations to come and this is great...
Toto não tem como não amar❤❤sinto orgulho ter vivido e curtido década de 80 . Éramos mais felizes que hoje
I give Toto and A for their performance and the crowd an A Plus !!!
😊
ESTOU OUVINDO ESSA PÉROLA NEGRA...EM OUTUBRO DE 2024
Me arrepio toda qdo ouço esse som. Maravilha dos anos 80❤
Te entendo !! Essa música é surreal!! Linda demais❤❤❤
E continua como se fosse musica nova!
Love to see young and old jamming together, nothing unites better than the purity of brilliant music.
ABSOLUTELY!!!, actually gets me a bit emotional.
Alguém aí agora?
Aí, eles me perguntam: Porque vc nao gosta de musica brasileira???? Está aí.... minha resposta👏👏👏👏
🙋🎧😁😎✌️
Show dos melhores
Agora é sempre
Eu....✌️😎
かっこいいー🎉このライブいきたすぎる~🌠🎉
Cuando un "cantante actual" de Reggaeton sea capaz de hacer esto dentro de 40 años empezaré a creer que eso es música.
Ya te puedes sentar....😅😅😅😅
40 años? Jajaja no lo harían en la actualidad ni ensayando 10 horas al día durante 10 años. Este talento de los 70 y 80 se está extinguiendo.
I was in the Indian Ocean when these guys put on a concert for the crew of the USS Midway on the flight deck. We were anchored off the coast of...Where else...AFRICA!
Ah como eu sou feliz por ter vivido o auge com essa e outras canções inesquecíveis dos anos 80
Essa banda é muito massa!!! sou de 1968, só escuto som massa.
My teenage kids introduced me to this song about 25yrs years ago.....75yrs old now and still loving it ❤❤
Our era had the most magical music of any generation.
Esta canción es como un himno para todo el mundo... Los toto's quedaron marcados para toda. La vida linda canción que nos enseña el amor porque somos creados por Dios... Incluyendo a la banda.. De. Los. Hermanos Pocaro's... Lukater y Ricie paht... ❤❤❤

Essa música tem muita energia!
Um grande abraço à todos!
Me chamo Stela, tenho 64 anos e moro no Brazil em São Paulo.
No better version of this song and lineup. Perfect in every way! Timeless.
Aqui em 2023 curtindo música de verdade. Sinto pena desta geração. A culpa é dos país que facilitaram a vida dos filhos. Falei........
Infelizmente, não podemos voltar no tempo. Ainda bem que obra prima como essa e muitas outras, não morrem.
isso e como ouvir os tambores tocando nas aldeias africanas simplesmente fantastica essa musica 1982 saudade
It's so awesome and wonderful to see a large crowd of fan's move and sway together to this great song.
ABSOLUTELY!!!, actually gets me a bit emotional.
A masterpiece performed brilliantly!!
E de pensar q hoje os jovens escutam casa porcaria! Éramos felizes e não sabíamos!
Verdade eu 54 anos
Agradeço a o criador por ter curtido essa época.
Younger ppl in the crowd ..nice that the 80s lives on! I love you, Toto... thanks for all the memories ❤❤❤❤
Que música maravilhosa e gostosa de ouvir. Passam se o tempo e não me canso de ouvi la! Tempos bons de boas músicas.
Amo essa maravilha banda ! ouço sempre ,o dia todo minha folga do trabalho ❤❤♥️😌 simplesmente amo demais toto ❤❤❤
I see old and young in that crowd, this song passes through generation after generation.
ABSOLUTELY!!!, actually gets me a bit emotional.
Ohhhh man...... This has been 1 of my ALL time favorite songs. I have even managed to turn my daughter onto songs/groups from my teenage years & earlier and this is 1 of her favorites as well.
I'm so glad this came up on my feed. Brings back a lot of memories.
❤❤ Itaguaí RJ setembro 2024...
One of my favorite songs forever.
In 2015, David Paich said that the song is about a man's love of the continent Africa, rather than a personal romance. 6:09 [Smooth Radio]
Wonderful moment. 10:01
Toto are just incredible live no matter the line up 😎😎😎🇦🇺🇦🇺

Saudades !!! Bons tempos !! Isso era música isso eram bandas . Lindo demais
Going to Southern Africa in 1 week for 3 week ride. Looking forward to it.
I live in South Africa. I love this song. I always imagined being in the African bush somewhere at sunset sitting on a land rovers roof watching the sunset and lions with this incredible song playing. Wow that would be great. Thank you Toto
Hello fellow South African
What's truly amazing is that composer and lead singer David Paich created this wonderful song without ever having been to Africa. When the band finally did get to Africa they received so many compliments on how it captured the spirit of the continent.
