They have always been considered to be lower then men, and they have to bear 14 children, and if they don't they are considered to be worthless. In 1992, I wrote a song which addressed this. And after this concert judging by the reaction I got when I sang this song, I have the feeling that more women will assert themselves. But I have actually recorded a love song, very recently. I've never felt that love needed to be talked about or discussed.
Love is just there.
It's something you do. But one day on a plane on the way from Finland that I imagined writing a love letter, and I wrote it down. It turned into a very big hit in Madagascar. I started making music in Britain with women who are classically trained in violin, vibraphone, bass clarinet and saxophone. We wanted to see if we could bring all the various influences of our music together.
