   Most of Africa is questionable. It’s like they didn’t even bother researching once they got there, and just went with song titles that had ‘Africa’ in them. I’m also missing whatever is meant by ‘The Fat of the Land’ for Mauritania or ‘Land of Confusion’ for Libya.

   And there are questionable undertones to ‘Sunburned Country’ for Niger or ‘Animal Kingdom’ for Zambia.

   Bob Dylan has a song called Mozambique. That would have been fine.

      Shameful really that they didn’t run the whole thing past you in your boxers in the spare room.

      Good points…. spare room boxers or not.

   My favourite is “Tired of England” in Argentina

   No sign of ‘Whitehall will get F all for Rockall’

   How can I be expected to take this seriously?

   I love that America is in the centre of the world and Africa is shrunken out of proportion.
