Why do we like this?

Two of my favorite artists to bust out in the heat of summer are Manu Chao and Amadou & Mariam. SO having the two of them together on the same track is like a match made in heaven.

The song "Sénégal Fast Food" comes off Amadou & Mariam's fourth album, Dimanche à Bamako, released back in 2005. Manu Chao actually rpoduced the whole album for the blind Mali couple, so it should come as little surprise that he is featured on a few of the tracks. This one just happens to be my favorite.
