What is the song that appears about a minute into it? Is that what Ethiopian pop sounds like?

Contrary to what most people say, the most dangerous animal in the world is not the lion, or the tiger, or even the elephant. It's a shark, riding on an elephant's back, just trampling and eating everything they see.

I am too old to learn amharic. It's difficult IMO.

wow that was a very pretty song a minute into it, can you give me the singer and title, very catchy
also i'm no linguists but amharic sounds just by listening to it similar to arabic, i know they're both semitic languages but i didn't expect them to sound that similar
question: are the ethiopian muslims a different ethnicity in ethiopia or just basically the same

thanks,
i knew this ethiopian muslim kid back in elementary. i'm not sure what he looked, he looked persian or some kind of mediterranean but definitely not african. his younger sister and younger brother both looked like regular african americans though. anyway, there were a lot of african american teachers and students at my school and they were always organizing things on african history and teachers would always forget to ask him because they didn't know he was black.
