Wiyathul │ Straalen McCallum

In this edition of Angel Watchers I am featuring Straalen McCallum singing "Wiyathul", an incredibly beautiful song from his "A Little Faith" album.  This song literally brought tears to my eyes.  It is written in Galpu, an aboriginal dialect.  "Wiyathul" has a very interesting history.  It was composed by Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu who is an Australian Aboriginal.  He was blind.  Sadly, Geoffrey just passed away a few weeks ago at the age of 46, on July 25, 2017.  Safe journeys to all the fans of Angel Watchers, wherever you may be.
