"Africa" is a popular song by American rock band Toto, released in 1982 as part of the album Toto IV. Written by band members David Paich and Jeff Porcaro, the song became one of Toto's biggest hits and achieved immense popularity worldwide. "Africa" is known for its unique melody, distinctive synthesizer sounds, and lyrics that convey an exotic feel of the African continent. The song's lyrics express a sense of awe and longing for Africa, although Paich himself never visited Africa when he wrote the song. Instead, the song was inspired by documentaries about the continent and touches on its culture, nature, and mysterious adventures. With its catchy chorus and rich musical arrangement, "Africa" has remained popular for decades and has been the subject of frequent covers, remixes, and internet memes, making it even more recognizable to a new generation.
