Tinariwen mixes the sounds of the mainstream world with the sound of the Sahara Desert in this song, and the album Imidiwan: Companions. The lead vocalist somber tune is powered by the arrangement of instrumentals on the tune. Though the band has instrumentals incorporated from their region they have also been noted as one of the few bands to actually keep the blues vibe alive today.
History: The album this song was featured on was released in 2009. Critics did enjoy the tune and it was met with many positive reviews for their fourth album. There isn't really much on this particular song on the album though. I'm not even sure if it was released as a single, and for that matter I don't know that any of the tunes on this album were released as singles.
