Since the early 1980s, Senegalese singer N'Dour had been touted as the man who would take African music into the Western mainstream. By 1994 this was looking unlikely. Then suddenly this duet with British soulstress Cherry was everywhere.
His glittering Wolof-language vocal and her tuneful plea for racial tolerance went straight to the nation's heart, making this one of the biggest-selling records of 1994. While the follow-up bombed, the speed, scale and unlikeliness of the 7 Seconds phenomenon suggest that it could happen again at any time.
Key moment: The warmth, intimacy and delicious unexpectedness of N'Dour's vocal entrance.
