I love this song, I don’t know why, but I do. My best version is by Habib Koite
I made a thread on the Music of Mali a while ago. Here is the link if interested.

You share the same taste with @old monk I think he posted a playlist of similar songs sometimes back. Sounds great though…
That is such a nice thread. Sikujua tuko wengi kwa kijiji that live for Malian music. It’s the best. I also love Guinean bands of the Sekou Toure Era. The absolute best in music.
Toumani Diabate is an all time favourite.
How can Oumou Sangare songs miss from here?
Now. nothing beats Ali Farka Toure and Toumani diabate. Too bad Ali Farka died.
Oumou is beast
Also, Tata Bambo Kouyate, Kandia Kouyate, Nainy Diabate, Hawa Dramé, Sali Sidibe too many African divas to post but my absolute favorite the piercing Na Hawa Doumbia.
Alou Sangare
Mali, Ivory Coast and Senegal have very talented musicians.
Mory Kante and Angelique Kidjo music is great too.
Why is Salif Keita missing?
Napenda sana.
