Dance Song - Africa, People Painted as Leopards etc?

[josh.thomas]

Hey!

I remember a dance song from quite a while ago, and it used to be very well known.

Its set in Africa (I think) with people painted/tattooed in Leopard, Tiger patters etc?

I think the lyrics were something like ''heya mamma wambe, wheeeeeey'' or something to that.

Please help, its driving me MAD!

Thanks sweets..

I think it's a Lionel Richie song - if that's any help. But just can't think of the title at the mo'. Something about "we're gonna have a party!" in the lyrics and has this sort of African chanting in it.

[josh.thomas]

No thats not it.

Its a dance song, and I can't picture Lionel Richie painted in Leopard print, prancing around on screen.

[~posy-jo~]

i still can't think. did it have sun in the title or was sung by sun something??

[josh.thomas]

LOL. Whats your email? I can send it, provided you purchase your own copy later, or assuming you already own one - just not on your PC ;-)

Youssou N'Dour has a track called "mame bamba" which is beaty although not necessarily a dance track in its original form ????

Is on - The Guide (Wommat) - 1994.

[josh.thomas]

We already have the track, thank you. :-)

[~posy-jo~]

u want my email?? u gonna send me that song?? sorry not sure i understand what u wrote! what do u mean purchase a copy?? my brain is sooo not working today!!!!!! xXx

[josh.thomas]

Yeah, I will e-mail you a copy of the song.

But, so we stay inside the law (sending each other music is classed as illegal, unless you own a copy of it already) - you must own a copy of the music already, you probably have this song on an old dance CD, and as long as thats the case, I can send it without infringing on any laws.

Get me? ;-)

[~posy-jo~]

ooohhhhhh i seeeeee sorry!!!! told u my brain wasn't working!!!! i DO NOT want a copy of that song. thanx anyway but i cannot stand it!!! it's bouncing around my head right now aaaaarrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[josh.thomas]
