The title track “Talendjourou” means “Spider’s Web”.
It describes the fragile network of brotherhood and sisterhood. Just like the web of a spider, we can reinforce these networks of friendship by pulling each other closer, with coordination and communication. Global events testify to the gradual erosion of our human values. But together we can breathe life back into our emotional and loving relationships, and rebuild a kinder and more sustainable world.
Talendjourou features Nepalese singer Shreya Rai.
