Pata Pata Song by Miriam Makeba. I was In the fifth grade when this song came out. I remember my 6th grad graduation, some of the girls did a dance to this song. I don't remember the dance, but I do remember how happy I was to here this song. I did'nt have a clue to what Miriam was saying, but the groove and the melody moved me then as it does now and stuck with me. This is one of my all time favorite pieces of music, ya' gotta love.
