Official Cock Crow At Dawn video by the iconic Bongos Ikwue 

This song deserve a Grammy award

This era was the best of the best of the good old days❤❤❤

It makes me cry because it reminds me of my beloved mother. May her soul rest in peace. Amen

The nostalgia is too overwhelming for me. Too many fond memories are too attached to songs of my childhood such as this. For people like us, this reminds us of how bad things have gone in this country. This was the era when rejected products from factories' bins alone, can clothe, feed and entertain you free of charge.

When we had music in Nigeria...

I will never forget this song. heard it first in 1980 and sang it everyday while looking through the windows of my classroom. Thanks for this wonderful song Bongo Ikwue

Whaooooh!!!!. I am 47 years old now and I still remember this song like it was yesterday. I hope this man has been given a national award because most musicians that got them bought them.

Listening to this in those days, who would have thought that Nigeria would turn out so debased as she is now? If God doesn't judge Nigerian leaders, he has to apologise to Sodom and Gomorah

country sweet those days oh! Beautiful old days when I grew up with a lot of aunties and uncles!

Thank you bongos ikwe, if we never heard your song we did think our present artist were geniuses, now we know they are garbage. This is the work of true legends.

You can hear the bird sing in the morning, You can hear the water splashing down the hill kind of roaring. You can see the sun going down And the people as they go by Without a frown Here the traffic never jam Don't cost much to buy some yams And the neighbours say hello And will strife to pull you up from down be low You can even hear the sound of the cock crow at dawn. Will he ever get there? Will he ever make it? Will he ever hear the sound of the cock crow at dawn? 1, 2 3 4 5 6 buses everyday With nothing left at the end of each day And the rattle he must pay With much to think, he often has no say. Will he ever get there? Will he ever make it? Will he ever hear the sound of the cock crow at dawn? Here the traffic never jam Don't cost much to buy some yams And the neighbours say hello And will strife to pull you up from down be low You can even hear the sound of the cock crow at dawn. You can even hear the sound of the cock crow at dawn. You can even hear the sound of the cock crow at dawn.

Blessed era. Miss my youth and late parents!

I love this; how fast things had degenerated in a once potential -full nation May God have mercy.

The best musician from Idomaland, Nigeria!

Brought a tear to my eye😢 awesome days long gone now, miss those days 😞

That was when Nigeria was indeed a place to live and be proud of. It brings memories of my childhood in the 80s.

Absolutely, brilliant rendition, something devoid in today's artists. For those who saw those times, how can we forget the tranquility of mother Earth

This song(s) reminds me of my childhood.The best years of my life,and of Nigeria,gone by.

Like my Igbo people will say " Bongo Sikwe" what a consummate professional, what a legend!!.. Nigerian music regressed badly..

My primary school time is unforgettable

No doubt, it brings back fond and golden memories of the 80's with Bitrus, Zamaye, etc. Seems like yesterday. How time flies!

Took me back to those days wen I run around wit dirty nails,looking so thin and ugly wondering if I will ever be called beautiful.I love this song.

This is our own flavor of folk music done in English language 😊 watching in 2023

Bongos Ikwe is a national icon and should be celebrated as such.

It brings me memories of special moments with my late mother. We watched this show a lot and I was 5yrs old back then

Instantly takes me back. Hearing this song with my adult ears gives me brand new appreciation for how good this song was, and still is.

Great song. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Oh it hit the spot. Chai, Chai, Chai!!!

Raw Talent. After all these years the sound of Bongos Ikwue's voice remains as strong and fresh as ever. What an incredibly talented artist!

This takes me back to when I was a child even then I loved this song CLASSIC

Haha. OMG! This takes me back to my childhood. A fantastic song and a great series. I wish I could watch it again. Bongos Ikwue can sing o!!

Love the sound track so much

Acoustic guitar at it’s best!

Absolutely amazing.......nostalgic!!!!!!!

Echoes of my childhood. Lived on the dusty street between St Ann Oturkpo and Lawyer Omakwu's residence. Bongos always visited in his GROOVY TRAIN bus and gifted us kids =N=1.00 (one Naira) and we would have a feast -- over a dozen of us !!! The memory still make my eyes teary and weak.

wooow...this is brings back alot of memories...this is great...totally love it

Wisdom is indeed not choosing what is trending, legendary people such as this man should be honored now that we still have him around, so much wisdom in his words

OMG!!! Please post the movie. I remember watching this with both my parents. Sweetest memory!

God continue to bless and keep you sir, the legendary Bongos Ikwe. May your years be sweetly long sir. I grew up loving your songs.

ooooh never thought i would ever hear this song again! love it love it love it.

Ever Green 💚 Song.

Brings back so many memories! I love the song and I loved the show!

nostalgic. grew up watching this show. two decades later...still remember it

That 2baba hasn't done a song with this legend (while he is still alive) still beats my imagination

How time flies... Listening to this i just get nostalgic feelings💔

Memories Memories Memories...life is too short! Thank you for giving us these great sounds that we grew up singing.

This is great...nostalgic!

I was so little back then, yet the song echoes in my ears. God bless you.

The voice of Idoma people. You have made us proud. I ever remember your music.

This is one of those songs that brings tears to one's eyes. Memories

OMG this is what I listened to growing up. Aside this, there's no other. What a nostalgic 😢

I so much love this song. It reminds me of the good old days. It also reminds me of the classic soap opera: Cock Crow at Dawn. Thanks Bongos Ikwue. You are truly a legend.

Wao this is one of the best music I have watch so far.you are great.

my mom taught me this song when i was child ❤️😭😭😭

Evergreen. When music lyrics makes sense

Who else came for this song from the movie 76 or what's the title again

When we had proper musicians and songwriters in Nigeria. Listening in 2020...

My father 💙💚❤

This is lovely...Evergreen. Wishing you all the best life can offer Sir Bongos!

When Nigeria was good before the military battered the economy.

Rest In Peace Sadiq Daba aka Bitrus!

This is fantastic! Priceless......

The memories of a happy childhood in Nigeria

timeless piece

Let me wake this.

nice music

He is way ahead of his time, he should get an award for one on Nigeri's finest song writer

Black is beautiful she is realy an angel look so beautiful

Bongos Ikwe, you are the pride of the Idoma people of Benue State. I love the Idoma traditional attire of Red and Black😍

Legend. Master of poetry and songwriting.

A true classic song from a living legend.

Been looking for this song, reminiscenze of growing up with NTA Enugu in the 80's

What!!!! Never new a Nigeria sang this song. This sound kinda nostalgic

Masterpiece!

Shot of words but one thing that is sure is, Nostalgic !!!

even from the past...if only value can be created from our invaluable talents then we would progress as other nations...#ValueAfrica

Didnt know there been a movie made out of that play. This song bring back memories. When we would watch with grown ups.

Memories never die. I love the movie then as a growing child in my father's house

Bongos Ikwue UNSUNG!

This was one song I listened to while growing up on turn table

Surprised just barely a 100 thousand people have listened to this

waooo sound from the hearth Nigeria legend

#Legend - Truly nostalgic. #Bongos is good. Pure talent.

I can't forget this..I grew up with this.

This song makes me feel sad for him, knowing that Babangida took his wife Ngozi (Miriam) from him. It has deeper meaning.

Very nice! Brought to me by - you were born to sing

Oh what a pleasant memory this brings

“Don't cost much to buy some yams". That was then o 😂 Over cost dey ground 😂😂

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 (follower of you were born to sing)

Happy Birthday Bongos. We love you.

this is taking me back to those glorious oment of my childhood

This used to be a theme song for a tv show series. On a 13” B&W tv!

An evergreen song👏👏👏👏👏👏

Hearing the song for the first time

Legend. Rest in peace Sadiq Daba.

Salt water in my eyes

Love this......

Awesome

Oh! those days!

Theme tune brings back some memories, what was the name of the series?
