While this is appropos to absolutely nothing....I think it's pretty neat.

This was one of those emails that your friends send. The difference is that this one is good. :lmao:

Enjoy!

This fun YouTube video features a 1980s pop classic. The rock band Toto scored their biggest hit with Africa in 1982. The song is instantly recognizable. But it has been reinvented.

Perpetuum Jazzile is an acappella jazz choir from Slovenia. It's hard to think of something further from an '80s rock band. But their version of Africa may best the original. The group has amazing voices.

But the beginning of this video is really striking. Group members simulate an African thunderstorm with their hands. It's really something to see and hear.

(Don't turn up your sound - the sound of raindrops begins really soft.)

Very cool! It was extra hard for me to hear the rain because I'm sitting here listening to a REAL rainstorm outside my window. :rotfl2: I had to turn it up. But it sounded exactly like the real thing. :thumbsup2

the singing duo, Gemini, who sing children's songs - have the entire audience (of children) do that during their concerts..
the rain storm -starting slowly with rubbing hands, then snapping fingers, etc..

it's a really cool effect, especially when you have an audience of little toddlers and their mothers making the sounds....
