Borrowing the well-known Cameroonian marching chant used by the group Golden Voices, the track features Afro-Colombian instrumentation and Southern African guitar beats.

Actually, I'm very dissappointed - why Cameroon? why Colombia? - what do they have to do with South Africa's World Cup - maybe they are playing but it's not being held in either of those countries. The song is OK - not easily learnable - but catchy rhythms. Sorry I sound like such a grouch but I really am dissappointed.
