The most energetic, engaging, generous and positive performer I've ever had the pleasure to witness.  She gathered as many audience members that would fit on the stage for a dance party, complete with drum circle.  I left that performance with a huge smile and happy heart.

Peter is an amazing artist and tends to find wonderfully talented others.

Gabriel has excellent taste in who he works with, they should just turn off his mic though.{#Cool}

I love how this track is #13 on the "Top New Tracks" (top airplay) list, and it's been on RP for a year now. Way to show your playlist diversity. At least I can now somewhat quantify how long and how much Angelique has been driving me bonkers with her wailing.
 
Now you go and stand in the corner and recite ... 'I must get my ears syringed 100 times'

Yup, amazing how some reacted to this and other songs in this segue...
(Angélique Kidjo - Salala (w/ Peter Gabriel)
Morphine - Take Me With You
Madrugada - The Lost Gospel
Pink Floyd - Eclipe)

I also enjoyed it, think Kidjo is a gifted musician... as old PG is...

For your hearing pleasure you'll need to record this script. Once you've completed your personal commercial,  you can play it as often as you like - hours of fun. But wait! If you order now... I hope this helps get you started. (The oringinal version was much longer, but I decided to edit, out of consideration for the larger community).
