In tears. My dad, uncles and their friends would hang out with their wives listening to this track and others like it (Fashola, Obey, Sunny, etc) in the 80s, over Harp, Trophy, palm wine and Christmas goat meat in our hometown, with my grandparents. My cousins and I were too "cool" for them ;) Now I can't get enough. Thanks, Groovemonzter. R.I.P., dad.
i love reading things like these - i love when people open up a little and share fond memories and i love youtube for letting me find these sweet little stories! i cannot understand the words of this music, but i understand and feel the inner richness of it and it really touches my heart, so i can very well understand when you are moved to tears - thank you so much for sharing, your words spice this fine music! and i hear you being too "cool" for them, i also was young once and now i keep catching myself having a completely different attitude towards certain things, haha - yep, let´s not be too "cool" anymore... :-) i send love and greetings from germany
Anytime am hearing some of this ancient song I feel like crying because it makes me remember my father and my entire family may God bless all our ancient musicians
I used to listen to this music in 2017 and missing Nigeria. I’ve been back home now for four years and listening to it with correct palm wine. This artist and Arounralojaoba. Thanks for uploading it.
May God bless the soul of this man. So many people in the 80’s benefited both physically & Spiritually. I have seen people shedding tears in the 80’s listening to this particular track.
BABA IKU DAYISI, THEI IWALOKUN, WHAT A MUSIC LEGEND OF OUR TIME. YOUR MEMORY CONTINUES TO LINGER IN OUR MIND. MEMOR OF SHAP CONERS FRIDAY NIGHT AND MANY JOINTS IN LAGOS. CONTINUE TO REST IN PERFECT PEACE BRO ❤
This is an evergreen music. whenever I listen to this music, it connects me with my late parents of blessed memories. Its indeed very philosophical in nature.
