Do they know it’s Africa, at all? Great piece by David Pilling on that song.

Ethiopia a country with as long a Christian heritage as England, and which regularly experiences snow at Christmas, at least in the mountains.

Yes and i had not known this - “The song’s unfortunate use of the word “Africa” supposedly came about after Midge Ure pointed out that Ethiopia had too many syllables. “
