If he was not around in the 70's or 80's and he never listened or came across or enjoyed those songs from back then, why should he regard those tunes as evergreen for himself? You all sound like you wanto get stuck in the 80's and 70's. its fine by me. all i know is my generation or his generation grew up listening to the likes of those he mentioned, so the general consensus would be that those songs are evergreen to his generation. Call him kid or whatever, but they are evergreen. Shikena

blink182: I do not see anything wrong in calling a kid a kid. That is the problem with recent generations, showing respect to your elders is a big problem. Once you grow a beard, get an enlarged peni.s and start touching brea.st, you think everyone ought to be your mate and respect you. Nowadays you find a jss 1 kid walk past sss3 block and greets only if he feels like it. In my time, you won't even dare walk past jss3 in that manner.

Back to the issue, songs from the 70's and 80's hold a lot of memories. It is not about just being evergreen, Nigeria was a different country then and the memories locked with it. For example, there was no dstv, internet, even local TV stations were scanty-all I had was nta Benin that started broadcasting 5pm daily, the turn table that was connected to our denon deck and audio cassettes.

There's a strong degree of nostalgia for that time and very little can be done to change that.

@ bolded: That's what I feel when I listen to Fela's songs. It's not something that I can easily explain, but I remember all these feelings. The tension, the uncertainty. The attacks on FGN cars, the nationwide shutdown of all universities. The banning of newspapers and associations. The black maria and landrover on Igbosere Road. The armoured tanks. The coups, the explosions, the motorcades. The giant newspaper headlines. The black front pages of newspapers. "How many students soja go kill?"

Fela's music was the soundtrack to all these and more and listening to his songs today brings back so many memories and feelings.

For no reason every season,
What a shameless race,

Blazinraj01:

thanks. I've been online. Just laying low. Nice write-ups.

Emkay@2:
Indeed we have alot of children on dis platform....except one guy who mentioned Yussuf Olatunji. I think if we want to talk about evergreen songs we w'll be talking about song of Ebenezer Obey, King Sunny Ade, Fela, Sikiru Ayinde Barrister, Kollington Ayinla, K1, Onyeka Owenu, Haruna Ishola, Dauda Epo-akara,Edna Ogoli, Majek Fashek and lots of Igbo highlife musician and many more. But this depends on one's Age bracket dat will inflence his/her evergreen music type. Great day guys

warrenweste: What aboutthis song.....when the going is good and smooth,many many people will be your friend...aya aya aya aya aya ........ayaa?? Who sang it..

naptu2:

Somewhere along the line, wires got crossed in my memory and I assumed that Jambos Express sang "When The Going Is Good And Smooth". I've just been made to realise that I was wrong. It was sung by William Onyeabor. 2 for the price of one.
