...Stop the World” is the only track that dares to throw unexpected chord changes in the mix; the rest mostly rely on multi-tracked harmonies and the 808/acoustic guitar schema from “Irreplaceable.” And they’re almost all somnolent, sad-sack ballads, too. Polow da Don contributes single “Single,” during which Ne-Yo comforts the jilted women of the nightclub. “It don’t matter ’cause you’re here now / And the music you?...

On the drive in, we passed a roadside auction for potatoes, huge yellow boulders stuffed 50 kg to a sack. When I asked Koro why people didn't kill the goats, cows and chickens that roamed the village to save their children, he replied: "Look, maybe one or two of your children get sick every year. But if you kill your animals, you're ruining everything you have, and everything...
