Why do we like this?

I've been in Paris for almost two weeks, and the French language is running deep in my veins.

Besides speaking the language as much as I can, I've also been diving deep into whatever French music I have on hand. And one such act that hits the spot *every* time is Amadaou & Mariam (accompanied by Parisian Manu Chao, of course).

"Camions Sauvages" comes off the Mali duo's 2005 album Dimanche à Bamako, which is arguably one of the best albums ever released. At least in my opinion.

Grab it here.
