Dewey Download 11/24

It’s time to dance on the ceiling with today’s Dewey Download. Few people have had as many hits as Lionel Richie has over the span of his nearly 50 years in music. In the 1980’s, you couldn’t escape him. One of his most popular songs, All Night Long, features a section that is full of boisterous singing and chanting in what one would assume is in an African language. Turns out, it’s pure gibberish. Richie didn’t have time to hire a translator to work on the lyrics he intended to include, so instead he just made up words to put into the song to include it on his album.We’re going to party, Karamu, fiesta, forever. Come on and sing along!
