326 - Graceland - The CoverUp

from The CoverUp · host Amanda and Rich Friedeman

A controversial song which is still beyond brilliant and with durable and positive musical impact, and a cover that does a complete musical relocation of the song without losing the magic. Graceland, originally by Paul Simon, covered by Willie Nelson.  Outro music is In Your Eyes by Peter Gabriel, but it's the bit at the end where we get to hear the stunning Wolof singing by Youssou N'Dour — and which came out in the same year as Graceland.
