Bedtime Music: Toto - Africa

Another fantastic album was Toto's 1982 release, Toto IV. The album produced three hits (although I don't think there's a single song on the album that I don't love), including the band's only #1 hit, Africa.

Interestingly enough, despite the enormous success of this particular song:

A quote from the second verse was voted the sixth worst lyric ever, in a poll for the BBC.

The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti

In case you didn't know, the band broke up earlier this year, in June, when Steve Lukather announced that he was quitting the band permanently and the band was dissolving.
