I gave it a pity 10, just because his other work is a consistent 20. Please don't let this song be your only exposure to Geoffrey Oryema. Get 2 albums: Exile and Beat the Border. You will thank me, I promise.
His song, The River, is programmed into my alarm clock and wakes me every morning. Complete magic. Will you try to upload some better songs? I hear potential, but I can't say that I like this song. Is the voice always the same? All I can picture now is Julia Child... |

| willyworx | Posted: Nov 18, 2004 - 00:46 This is an incredible album. Has some strong French pop elements, which may explain whjy certain Americans might not like it. One of the best African pop albums I've heard. |

Makes you wonder, don't it?  I heard a very old recording of the last living castrato, who died back in the 30's, I think. It was a very strange sounding voice. |

| drife (Golden, CO) | Posted: Jun 26, 2004 - 18:43 Gawd, this sounds like something from the Alan Parsons Project! I dislike this intensely. |
| Pipes (Murray, UT) | Posted: Jun 30, 2003 - 06:23 Interesting. Aptly titled. Sounds medieval. I'll have to hear it a few more times to decide if I like this one. :D |
| Coppertop (San Diego, CA) | Posted: May 30, 2003 - 15:45 I love this. The combination of sounds and effect is wonderful. I wonder if we realize how lucky we are to have RP. Keep up the great work Rebecca and Bill. |

| philarktos (Vancouver) | Posted: May 20, 2003 - 11:27 Very interesting indeed. Never heard of Oryema. Is he an ex-pat African musician ? The mbira gives a nice Medieval ambiance which I would never have expected against this type of vocal. |

| dignan2 (New York, NY) | Posted: May 20, 2003 - 11:23 "Midieval Dream" sounds like a Spinal Tap song. This really does nothing for me, but who am I. I'm sure someone enjoys this. :???: |
| CompuTech (UK) | Posted: May 20, 2003 - 11:23 Sort of like listening to coffee in a perculator there at the start |
| Isobel (Florence, AL) | Posted: Feb 26, 2003 - 20:58 I've been in love with Oryema's music for years. I can't get enough, and I am so thankful for RP for playing it here. |
