Causes for organ failure are, amongst others: trauma (being hit by a car, bullet,...), infection, apoptosis (cell death caused by DNA segmentation) e.g. due to old age or radiation poisoning, intoxication or poisoning, hypoxia, extreme heat or cold, starvation, dehydration, wear and tear of blood vessels leading to bleading and ischemia, blocked blood vessels (arteriosclerosis) -as as in a heart attack...etc. Or a combination of any of these, one causing the other.

In rare cases you just die without apparent cause - heart stops, poit, that's it.

What are the lyrics to the English version of 'Waka Waka -This Time for Africa-'?

Shakira's "Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)" was based upon a traditional African soldiers' song named Zangaléwa, a 1986 makossa hit for Cameroonian group, Golden Sounds. The song was released on May 7, 2010 in the album, Listen Up! The Official 2010 FIFA World Cup Album.

Shakira's management and Sony Music Entertainment, the company that chose Shakira to sing the song, began to run into trouble with Jean Paul Zé Bella, Golden Sounds' group leader. Zé Bella accused Shakira of pirating the song as he did not grant permission to Shakira to use the chorus, nor did he receive any form of letter asking for it. An undisclosed deal was struck with Sony, promising to provide compensation to Zé Bella to borrow from Zangaléwa. Sony did not mention how much compensation it would provide.

The song was chosen as the official song for the 2010 FIFA World Cup. In response, Shakira said:I am honored that Waka Waka (This Time for Africa) was chosen to be part of the excitement and the legacy of the 2010 FIFA World Cup.

Many South Africans complained that they would have liked a local singer to perform the song instead of Shakira, in which she responded:The World Cup is about this melting pot, you know, in which so many cultures come together. So when Sony ... asked me to write a song for the World Cup, I decided to bring a little bit of my culture, too, which is attached to Africa through an umbilical cord. I mean, I was raised listening to music that was heavily influenced by African music ... that's how close Colombians are to African culture. So I decided to use a little of Colombian and Afro-Caribbean elements, these chants from Cameroon ... and invite a South African artist to also bring their own flavor to this song. And I thought in that way we could create a song that would be more emblematic of what the world cup spirit is, that spirit of tolerance and integration and that melting pot that South Africa is right now.
