Answer to Question 1

 The entire selection is recognized as fitting within the popular genre of reggae, largely due to the continuous reggae dub--a familiar reggae harmonic/rhythmic ostinato--that is heard throughout the selection. From time to time a Grale kapela (traditional string band) plays krzesany Po Dwa, a gralski dance tune from the regional muzyka Podhala. The traditional instruments used in these parts include basy, violin and whistle. The text, while sung in English, is a loose translation of the original Grale dialect text (e.g., Johnny referred to in the lyrics is a Robin Hood-like symbol of freedom and justice). Modulations (sudden shifts to different key/tonal centers) stand out in the recordingsee Active Listening guide.

Answer to Question 2

 World-beat is a wide category that combines popular genres of music that have a level of international recognition with a local or indigenous music usually considered exotic'
 Other terms used to refer to the same phenomena are world music,' global music,' and global pop.'
