Sometimes you just can't stand still. Your foot starts tapping in slow, rhythmic time...one..two..three..four. Next, your head's bobbin' to accompany your foot, chin jutting out, one..two..three..four. Now, arms up, the swaying starts and then things really heat up, you're movin' and a groovin', can't stop, don't want to. It's Angélique Kidjo after all.
