There's an infectious quality to Haitian music that makes it irresistible to dancers. And, when accompanied by an older-styled band, the vitality of the rhythms are perfectly complemented by horns. The images of happy people dancing are certainly charming, too. Songs like these exemplify what I love most in Caribbean musics. Perhaps part of my love for the song is a certain similarity in the keyboard with Malavoi's "Jou Ouve," one of my favorite songs? Or maybe it's really "Pousser la Vie" I am thinking of?
