Aaron Lordson is a West African who plays on the streets of Barcelona: the Rambla,
Portal d'Angel,... He was also on the Spanish talent show called Hijos de Babel.
He produces his CDs himself (have seen them on Amazon). As far as I can tell this
song is an original (at least I haven’t been able to find any other references to it online).
