Song of the Day

My friend did this thing at school where he just randomly finds songs he likes and just declares it the song of the day and on a given day we just listen to the song and comment on it. So I thought it was a cool idea and might as well start it on this blog.

So along with my photography I'll start posting some random song I find of any genre and popularity and post it with my thoughts on it. Feel free to comment as well and I'm hoping to have some fun with this.

So here's the first song of the day:

Baba Yetu- Composer: Christopher Tin




 I stumbled upon this song when I first played Civilization IV. This song first plays when you're in the menu screen and before I even began playing the game I stopped to listen.
It's a beautiful piece of music to me at first because it sounded nice, but I didn't know it's the Swahili Our Father. So it also has a bit of sprititual meaning to me. It's a song of about how our kind came to where we are today and reminding us our origins and be proud of being human.
