logansrogueYou know, it's a problematic song from a logistics standpoint. Africa is a continent, so rain occurring there is pretty much a certainty at some point. It's not all dry serengeti. In fact in the tropical bits, I'm pretty sure it rains all the bloody time. And the music video has a definite colonial flavour that goes with the White idea of Africa.
That said, the music itself is fuckin' awesome.
