Barack Obama has chosen 'La Dame et Ses Valises' by Les Amazones d'Afrique as one of his favourite songs of 2017.
The former President’s list of his favourite books and music from the year were posted on the Barack Obama Facebook page on 31 December 2017 with the words:
“During my presidency, I started a tradition of sharing my reading lists and playlists. It was a nice way to reflect on the works that resonated with me and lift up authors and artists from around the world. With some extra time on my hands this year to catch up, I wanted to share the books and music that I enjoyed most. From songs that got me moving to stories that inspired me, here’s my 2017 list”
