For more info - http://www.eagle-rock.com/artist/88C97B/Toto http://smarturl.it/TotoLiveAmsterdamdvd Toto were formed in LA in the late 70's by a group of friends who were all much in demand session musicians. They went on to epitomise the classic American pop/rock sound of the 80's and 90's with hit albums and singles including Hold The Line, Africa, I Won't Hold You Back and the multi-Grammy winning Rosanna. Live In Amsterdam was recorded in front of a fanatical crowd in 2003 during the world tour in support of their album "Through The Looking Glass". The set includes all their hits, tracks from that album together with live favourites. This track is from the full concert DVD "Live in Amsterdam", available now from Eagle Vision. I hear the drums echoing tonight But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation She's coming in 12:30 flight The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation I stopped an old man along the way, Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies He turned to me as if to say, Hurry boy, It's waiting there for you CHORUS: It's gonna take a lot to take me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I bless the rains down in Africa Gonna take some time to do the things we never have 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 As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become CHORUS (Instrumental break) Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you It's gonna take a lot to take me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I bless the rains down in Africa, I bless the rains down in Africa I bless the rains down in Africa, I bless the rains down in Africa I bless the rains down in Africa Gonna take some time to do the things we never have

ha ha fantastic it does sound like what you said epic song though As a 90's kid I am really sad that this was not my generation of music... Gotta love Toto and the whole 80's music. Respect... THIS IS THE BEST BAND IN THE WORLD WELL THAT COULD MAKE THE WORLD CUP OPENING HERE IN BRAZIL what a energy this is real music Awesome! Toto is the ultimate American Super group. Almost all these guys were very successful session musicians. Lukather is the most underrated guitarist on earth. Simon Phillips is also very underrated. Ya man, they are from a time where still real artists existed, listen foreigner-waiting for a girl like you-live, you have to listen vers close to realize that is no playback. That ppl love music and live for it, nowadays there are no artists, just working ppl, but damn bad working ppl and as worse it is as much money they get. ルカサーがペイチの手にキスするほどこのメンバーでのライブがTOTOなんです♫ 日本へ来日したときは必ず観に行ったTOTOのライブ・・・ 名曲は永遠に名曲です・・・ このまんまのステージ・メンバーでのライブは今でも興奮しながら会場で共に歌ったことを忘れません。 TOTOよ永遠に・・・ Good muito bom" não se faz musicas como antigamente!! com alma sentimentos!! that moment when you realize that this was live :X Njut T_T  this song came out in 84 dude, Family put it out in, idk, 2011. get informed. youuuu areeee a goooooood, u made my week Toto will be live in concert at 2013 Curacao North Sea Jazz Festival on August 2013 good one mate :) Africa Jeffster!!
