Well, that jazzy sound that got us chair dancing means only one thing.
It's time for our senior correspondent Fernando Augusto Pacheco to join me once again for his weekly global countdown.
Fernando, where are we heading?
We are heading to Tanzania.
And I'm very excited, Georgina, because I genuinely think they have such a vibrant music scene and it doesn't only stay in Tanzania.
Even when I went to Kenya a few years ago, they were only listening to Tanzanian music.
I mean, it's a big industry there, and I think you can enjoy this top five.
Well, tell me what's at number five?
At number five, we have the musician from Tanzania harmonize featuring Mario.
The song is called disconnect.
Let's have a listen.
That was harmonized there.
I love that.
I love that as well.
And harmonize.
There is a sound for Tanzania called bongo flava.
It's kind of the mixture of genres, but it's known as kind of Tanzanian music.
But he mixes that specific music with Nigerian Alphabet and some amapiano as well from South Africa.
So he is a man full of music genres there as well.
Now, this next one, number four, is called Marieu, I think Marieux.
