My other country, this is why I love you.
Yesterday, I talked about why I hate the vuvuzela; because it means you can't hear the singing.
Oddly enough, just this morning Chas pointed me to this link. Shosholoza, performed by the crowd, at Free State Stadium in Bloemfontein.
And because this is a South African crowd, it picks up a perfect multi-part harmony with ululation, the different parts coming together utterly beautifully.
The comments - despite this being a YouTube video - convey the kind of reaction it's getting. People post about getting goosebumps or finding themselves crying outright, and I can understand it - the power and beauty in that is amazing.
If you can watch that video and feel unmoved, there is something wrong with you as a person.
