Africa is a hit song by the band Toto. The song was written in 1982 and can be heard on Toto's album "Toto IV." Africa was also released as a single in the same year. Since its release, Africa has topped the US Billboard Hot 100 (the only Toto song to do so) and has been named as one of the top 50 Most Explosive Choruses in NME magazine. The song was written by Toto's keyboardist and vocalist David Paich and drummer Jeff Porcaro. Paich appears in the iconic music video as a researcher in a library, trying to match a scrap of a picture of a shield to the book from which it was torn out. Interestingly, the music video to Africa features Mike Porcaro in place of David Hungate, who had left the band before the video was shot. Toto managed achieve a gold certification for the release of Africa, reaching cumulative sales of over half a million copies in the US alone.

Lyrics:
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 long forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it'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
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

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

It's gonna take a lot to drag 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 had

Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you

It's gonna take a lot to drag 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 rain)
I bless the rains down in Africa
(I bless the rain)
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
(Ah, gonna take the time)
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
