The English are a straight forward, good and polite people. They are as good as drinking water and are not hasty, this is a good dance for boys, come and join us." The singers are all Nyamwezi who have come down to the East coast from the interior near Tabora and have now settled permanently at the coast in or around Dar-es-Salaam. These Nyamwezi singers of Dar-es-Salaam have an attractive way of singing their songs repeating each stanza after the soloist. This style may well have been copied from the Arabs or Swahili.
