umbertino Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 A youtube poster explained that the song is about the danger of Politics.People will praise you on your way up and then bring you down Seems to work the same way all over the world apparently....... True they had a few serious problems in Ivory Coast, including a Dictator ( Houphet Boigny-RIP)...Problems went on after his death, despite Country being so rich ( first world producer of cocoa, etc)..They had also a civil war.... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivory_Coast One of the funny / sad facts about the Dictator was that he (apparently a fervent Catholic) decided to build an exact copy of St.Peter's Cathedral of Rome ( biggest catholic church in the world) with the exact dimensions...in his birth-town in Ivory Coast ...The classic cathedral in the desert ....Of course using millions and millions of money ( public, I'd guess) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
