The official theme song/ anthem for the World cup has been released. listen to it right here....

I think the south African decision makers have a real soft spot for ol' Akon since it was he who sang the Theme song at the 20/20 World Cup in South Africa and it is he again who headlines the theme tune for our 2010 World Cup in South Africa, alongside Keri Hilson and the Soweto Gospel Choir.An English paper had this to say:

A lively number featuring plenty of rhythmic chanting and African background singing, the song includes the usual inspirational lyrics that don't really make much sense - chorus: 'This our time to show, our time to fly, our time to be inside the sky; our time to so, our time of song; the last one in football.

'OH AFRICA, OH DEAR'

Personally i'm not the biggest fan of the man, and I think the title is a shocker. the title will scare 1st world folks 'Oh Africa, Oh Dear' almost sounds like we are apologising in advance for the blunders we are gonna make. Anyway, the tune is definately African and has all our classic shanti sounds to it.

What do you think???
