Tribute to Miriam Makeba Mama Africa

[Nala]

Today we say goodbye to Mama Africa. She was my one of my favourites, Pata pata was the first choice for my page. Miriam Makeba is synonomous with Africa. May she rest in peace, she died doing what she loved best. God bless you Miriam!

„Pata Pata" is the name of a dance ... we do down Johannesburg way.
And everybody ... starts to move ... as soon as „Pata Pata" starts to play - hoo ...

For some reason I remember her name. I think it must have been from the 50's or 60's. I just can't remember from when
