This thread serves as a rejoinder to the thread on the 20 best Nigerian songs of all times by MTV. While I won't completely condemn the thread, I think MTV should have added a period to the list, preferable covering the last decade. Those that understand music and the meaning of the phrase, "of all times" won't doubt that MTV erred because the songs on their list, mostly hiphop, can't stand the test of time. Do this simple assignment, play any hiphop song of the last decade, and see how some youths will hiss. But play a songs like "Bere Bote" by Cardinal Rex Jim Lawson or his "Sawale", remixed by Flavour, you will see the reaction on the faces of elderly people and some youths. It may interest you to know that songs are nothing less than 45 years. The artiste himself died 43 years ago at the age of 33.

Here is my list (but not limited to) of the best songs of Nigeria of all times. You may add yours, but it shouldn't be less 30-35 years ago. The purpose of this is to separate the boys from the men. Let's go there.
1. Bere Bote - Rex Lawson.
2. Taxi Driver - Bobby Benson.
3. Sweet Mother - Prince Nicco Mbaga.
4. Baby Kwanagida - Osita Osadebe.
5. Joromi - Victor Uwaifo.
6. Logba-Logba - Orlando Owoh.
7. Onye Ori Utaba - Mike Ejeagha.
8. Board Members - Ebenezer Obey.
9. Eddie Kwansa - Ralph Amarabem.
10. Ije Enu - Celestine Okwu.
11. Omo Pupa - Victor Olaiya.
12. Mi Ko Mo - Sunny Ade.
13. Uwa Nwogbenye - Paulson Kalu.
14. Anansa Special - Bustic Kingsley Bassey.
15. Fuji Garbage - Sikiru Ayinde.
16. Oni Dodo - Fela Kuti.
17. Ise Ile - Ayinla Omowura.
18. Won Kere Si Number Wa - Rolling Dollars.
19. Jagua Nana - Orlando Julius.
20. Jolly Papa - Rex Lawson.

Mike Ejeagha is one highlife maestro I love. I just can't stop listening to his "Onye Nkpesa" and "Onye Ori Utaba."

The group Ofege made up of students of St Gregory's college should be on this list. That band despite being are up of students was way ahead of its time. Their song "Wizzy Labo" is a timeless classic and besides the band members played all the instruments on the album. No auto tune or computers.

Another song slept on by people who compile greatest lists is the reggae song Lamentation for Sodom by the artiste, Terra Kota. Great song about Nigeria still relevant till today if you take time to listen to the lyrics despite the poor production . It was a song way ahead of it's time.
