K'Naan Warsame was fortunate to arrive in New York City during his teenage years, as the Somali Civil War was reaching its peak of bloodshed. After spending some time in Harlem, he and his family eventually settled in Toronto, where he began to develop his voice as a poet, which was heavily influenced by the cadences of the early rappers. K'Naan soon sparked attention, most of all from Senegalese musician Youssou N'Dour, who was moved by the young poet's performance in front of a U.N. refugees committee. While THE DUSTY FOOT PHILOSOPHER first saw release and acclaim (including a Juno award) in 2005/06, it was widely reissued in 2008. In the intervening period, artists ranging from Nelly Furtado to Mos Def began collaborating with K'Naan as he prepared new material and toured the world, spreading his message about the injustices against the Somali people. - HMV

2010 02 Wavin' Flag

 

well, thats the end of that one

I have noticed that some songs on the chart have just moved a mere place up the chart. (e.g. Eminem, Rihanna, Alicia, Gaga etc.)
They're not. Airplanes is in the key of F# minor, whilst Eminem is in the key of G minor. The chord sequence is very different as well.

 

But the rhythms of the words are almost exactly the same. And it's the same formula of rapper on the verses, female singer repeating the chorus a few times at intervals.

 

I thought I give it a go, these are my favourites:

and "driving in my car" by Madness is in Morris Minor.... boom boom

 

They're not. Airplanes is in the key of F# minor, whilst Eminem is in the key of G minor. The chord sequence is very different as well.

 

What does the key matter if they're both minor? You can tranpose Airplanes by only 1 semitone to get it into the same key as Eminem/Rihanna.

 

You're right about the chords though, and that's one of the most important things.

 

I think the instrumentals are similar too, though.

and No1 next week ?????????

Sadly no, not even top 3 :(

 

But I'm happy she could peak at number 2 if she's there. :cheer:

and No1 next week ?????????

 

No sadly that looks like being JLS they already No1 on i-tunes tragicilly

Baby, I like it!

 

Go Enrique Iglesias! :cheer:
