I don’t understand a word but I can feel the warmth of the sun when listening. I imagine midday break, resting in the shadow, singing while looking around… I also like the other songs.
Quick search for Lome Grand Marché on Youtube but I only found some videos about the burned down building.
Different music:

Birgit,
Sadly, it is blocked here. Thanks for trying.
I think her voice is amazing and it reminds me of Miriam Makeba. I don’t understand the words either but like you I can feel the sun and the slowness of life in the heat.

I couldn’t find pictures of the new market, similar to the old.
I knew you’d like this music.
