Songfacts®:

  • The first track from Bombino's Nomad album runs to 4 minutes 28 seconds. The title translates into English from Tamasheq as "My Friend"; as he told the Guardian in September 2013, there are true friends with whom we share experiences, but unfortunately (often) such friendships do not last. >>
