Tue, September 1, 2009 - 1:01 AMI bought the malian copy of her cd while I was there - is there any difference between that and the international version (other than the cover and title)? -

Re: Oumou Sangare Mali & International
Wed, September 2, 2009 - 5:03 PMDoes the Malian version of the latest album have a different title, Aniqa?
I hadn't heard of disparate album versions for the Mali and international markets.
The last time I heard Youssou N'dour put out an album that was only released in Senegal--this was prior to the international release of Rokku Mi Rokka, but I hadn't been able to confirm it. -

Thu, September 17, 2009 - 12:58 AMHey Mr J
The copy I bought is called Kounadia and track 7 is Seya. I was also given the cassette as a pressie by a local. Who knows what's behind it. Happy to do a full track comparision with you.
I'm sure stranger things have happened.
Papa Wemba used to have very different shows for African or Anglo audiences. I know which I prefer. -

Thu, October 8, 2009 - 7:19 PMThe international version of the album is actually called Seya--the title track is #8 and Kounadya is #3.
Yes, it's interesting how "world" music has been packaged for the home and international/"world" audiences.
I was going thru my world music favs from the 90s and there was this Asian fusion tune that was composed by a western musician as part of his world music project, covered by an Asian artist and became a pop hit in the country that inspired the song, and at least another cover version released not long after that was targeted for disco/club play--complete with two separate music videos released by the two main artists performing the song!
But that story is for another thread ;)

Da manga rosa quero o gosto e o sumo
Melão maduro, sapoti, joá
Jabuticaba, teu olhar noturno
Beijo travesso de umbu-cajá
Pele macia, ai, carne de caju
Saliva doce, doce mel, mel de uruçu
Linda morena, fruta de vez, temporana
Caldo de cana-caiana, vem me desfrutar
Linda morena, fruta de vez, temporana
Caldo de cana-caiana, vou te desfrutar
Morena tropicana, eu quero teu sabor
Ai, ai, ai, ai
Morena tropicana, eu quero teu sabor
Ai, ai, ai, ai
Da manga rosa quero o gosto e o sumo
Melão maduro, sapoti, joá
Jabuticaba, teu olhar noturno

Lyrics:
Las caras lindas de mi gente negra
son un desfile de melaza en flor
que cuando pasa frente a mi se alegra
de su negrura, todo el corazón.
Las caras lindas de mi raza prieta
tienen de llanto, de pena y dolor
son las verdades, que la vida reta
pero que llevan dentro mucho amor.
Somos la melaza que ríe
la melaza que llora,
somos la melaza que ama
y en cada beso, es conmovedora.
Por eso vivo orgulloso de su colorido
somos betún amable, de clara poesía
tienen su ritmo, tienen melodía
las caras lindas de mi gente negra.
Coro:
Las caras lindas, las caras lindas
las caras lindas de mi gente negra.
Que lindas pero..pero mira que lindas son.
Tienen, tienen, tienen, tienen de llanto
mucha melodía, te digo Belen tienen belleza
y también tienen poesía de la bien linda.
Caritas lindas de gente negra,
que en La Calma tengo un montón
las caras lindas de mi gente negra, son un vacilón.
Somos te digo, la melaza que ríe, jajajajaja
que canta y que llora y en cada beso
bien conmovedora y cautivadora.
Te digo que en PortoBello Panamá
yo vi la cara más bella y pura
y es por eso que mi corazón,
se alegra de su negrura. !Esa si que es linda!
Que lin, que lin, que lindas son.
Negrura de la pura.
Que lin, que lin, que lindas son.
