Graceland. When it came out, in 1986, it was quite a surprise, even considered "risky" and "experimental" by some people. Simon flirted with African-influenced music but the result was extremely successful; joyous and uplifting. Still a great listen after all these years.

Laten we hopen dat Hongarije vandaag Victor #Orbán de laan uitstuurt.
Het zou me niets verbazen dat, mocht de uitslag ongunstig uitvallen, Orbán deze zal aanvechten. Want hij is 'n slecht verliezer.
