Daddy Showkey's Diana is there, but Onyeka Onwenus's wait for me with Sunny Ade is not there. Both made the list anyway.

I wonder why the Mandators' Rat Race isn't there.

I hope someone will answer me finally this question... there are two songs that am fond of for years but I don't know the singers : 1. "aye o africa hi, aye o africa.... How are you doing africa, aye o africa" The music goes with alot of sax and was used by AIT as their background music for the morning ICT program "CYBER AFRICA". 2. The second is a pure highlife song more like dancehall jam, it goes with a female chorus "Ooooh mama eh ! lai lai .titi lai lai"it also goes with lots of trumpet "parararam paaram" ......Hope someone would help my soul, Thanks

The fact that I know most of the songs on this list makes me feel old. Why is Ras Kimono, Mandators, Baba Fryo, Onyeka's duet with KSA and Evi Edna Ogoli's Jealousy missing? I think Remedies too deserve a spot on this list. Nice to see Dizzy K Falola though, used to sing Baby kilode with my mum back in the days. grin grin grin
