And we couldn t agree more.
If you think about how music has the ability to travel all across the globe, it becomes clear that you don t always have to understand the lyrics in order to feel the power of a song.
The melody alone can make you want to get up and dance, curl up in a ball and cry or when it s really, really good, it can even give you straight-up shivers down your spine.
With the Drakensberg Boys Choir s latest cover, we can guarantee that at least one of the previously mentioned reactions could happen if you watch this video.

On the 72nd Republic Day, the International Monetary Fund forecast that the Indian economy would grow at 11.5 percent - the only large economy to record double-digit growth. In a hundred days since India has been witness to haemorrhaging of lives, livelihoods and confidence. The hopes of a V-shaped recovery are now stranded between a raging virus and a botched-up vaccination roll out.
The economy is under the long shadow of long COVID - as in the medical condition deleterious effects haunt the economy. In May, a parade of rating agencies as also economists have downgraded India’s growth - the best-case scenario as of now is 9 plus percent GDP growth and the worstcase scenario is 8.2 percent.

Nothing makes you feel old like a word that’s not as old as you are. Dictionary definition: “clothes or music whose style or design is imitative of those of the recent past.”
