Vendredi at Volume 5

The majority of my favorite African music comes from Mali, although I have no idea why this is the case. Although this song and video are about Senegal, the artists are Malian. They're a married couple named Amadou et Mariam, both of whom are blind. Some people may recognize in this song the influence of Manu Chao, who produced the album on which this song appeared: Dimanche a Bamako.
