“This track is reflective on the awful things that have happened in "Rwanda". Nice soft tribel drums and chants in the background. Great vocals.”

“This is such a pretty track. It's a simple melody, well played and sung with emotion. The CD is well worth the price of admission. ”

“This is another group from South Africa. We have seen a lot of good music coming from there lately. This track is very uplifting, vibrant, lively and fun. A must for small parties or just when you want a pick me up. ”

“This is an immensely personal song written after a visit to Rwanda ten years after the genocide. It is inspired by visits to some of the genocide memorials across the country and the big question of how does a country move forward from such devastating events. Having seen the way ordinary people were moving forward with their lives and the contrast between that and the anger of those visiting the memorials that such events took place, it showed me the immense capacity that people who have experienced such devastation have for forgiveness. And my realisation was that the only way for people who have suffered so much to reclaim some form of power over their lives is to find some form of forgiveness.
This song was ultimately a cathartic experience that helped me make sense of all that I'd seen in Rwanda. I hope you enjoy it too.”

“this is easily the best song of the album. The vocals are kinda muffled so I'm not *quite* sure what he's saying. But I like the sad-fingerpicking,-oh-there's-turmoil -in-the-world-so-let-me-sing-about-it-vibe he's got going on in this song...”
