I like her. This reminds me of something that I've seen very recently. On the new year celebrations in London, me and my nephew were taking the tube in Leicester Square at around 02:30 and some ladies talking chatting with the police/staff realised that we were Somalis and one of them decided to sing "Naf jacayl hayaa ma hadhgashoo, hurdo waynacdaa ma hiigsatee..." My nephew being fish and chips, he hardly knows any Somali songs let alone that one, so me and the lady formed a duet in the station for a minute or so. Even though that night was an anomaly (for example, several minutes before this a drunken guy was teaching me a festive song in language of the kind I've never heard before) Somali songs are probably more popular with people who aren't Somalis than we think.
