The song Africa by the rock band Toto was released in 1982; however, it was not used as a soundtrack for any movies. Instead, the song was featured in episodes of a few television series.

This song appeared in an episode of the TV show Scrubs in 2004. The episode was a tribute to the movie The Wizard of Oz, so Toto fit the theme.

In May 2012, Family Guy utilized "Africa" within the plot of the season finale titled "Internal Affairs." In March 2012, Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake offered a light-hearted homage through a comedy sketch featuring the track, which has now been viewed over 6 million times on YouTube.

This song tells the story of a man who comes to Africa and must make a decision about the girl who comes to see him. He is enamored with the country but must leave if he is to be with her.
