Does anybody know the name of this song? Attached below this post is a link that will prompt you to download a voicenote of me playing the tune on my keyboard. I've played it without any accompaniment or chords, so that it'll be easier to figure out the tune I'm talking about. Please help if you can.

IN FACT, THOSE DAY, IT WAS SAID THAT MICHAEL JACKSON WAS SUPPOSED TO PERFORM THE SONG, BUT HE WAS LATE, AND THE CAMERA GUYS WANTED TO PACK UP. SO THE GUY VOLUNTEERED TO DO THE SONG, AND KILLED IT. IT WAS SAID THAT MICHAEL JACKSON GOT FURIOUS AND SHOT THE GUY, BUT WAS NEVER CONVICTED! #HausaTalesByMoonlight 1 Like |

benzmatic: merahki: Aha! Maybe one of you can help me. I had Nelly Uchendu's album in the '80s and I loved all the songs on it. Mamausa was a huge hit, Waka About was funny (comedians used it in their jokes) and Love Nwantiti was also very good. But there was another song on the album that I also loved. Unfortunately I can't remember the title or lyrics of the song. I've searched everywhere for it (including YouTube) but I've had no luck. So I'm going to play the melody on my keyboard, hoping that one of you will recognise the tune and remember the name of the song. Please click on the link below this post. It will prompt you to download a voicenote of me playing the song. Thanks.

I would have posted this video earlier if I had remembered. This is taken from the Bala Miller Show in the early 1980s. Elder Steve Rhodes, Bala Miller and Gloria Rhodes (now Gloria Rhodes-Nash) perform some of the highlife anthems that are on this list. It's quite interesting seeing Steve Rhodes attempt to sing in bini. It's also fascinating the way Steve Rhodes combined his group with Bala Miller's band (those men really understood music). By the way, does anybody have a clip of the episode of the Bala Miller Show in which Kris Okotie was the guest? The one in which he dressed like a superstar. I'd be very happy if somebody posts a clip of that episode. Bala Miller, Steve Rhodes and Gloria Rhodes performing 1) Baby Jowo 2) Taxi Driver. 3) Omo Pupa 4) Omo Laso 5) Joromi. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2-c4L7OEtY 1 Like 1 Share |

naptu2: Don't mean to trouble you Bruv. But please there's an old skool song I've been trying to get, I don't know if its Nigerian at all, but the lyrics goes thus; "I want you to be mine . . . I want you by my side, be my guide." Pls can you help me get the name of the artiste and the title of the track. Thanks. |
Re: List Of 150 Of The Greatest Nigerian Songs By Naptu2 by naptu2: 2:08am On Nov 05, 2016 |
DeMOznlgxx: Bro, I saw your earlier post, but your question took me on a journey that was sometimes frustrating. I'll tell you what happened. I recognised the lyrics as soon as I saw your question (I knew that I had heard the song), but I couldn't remember the melody. It was so frustrating! I kept searching my mind, trying to remember where I had heard those words. Then I remembered the melody yesterday night and it occurred to me that the song has been done more than once. There's a 1970s version and a 1990s version, but I couldn't remember the name of the song or who sang it. I wasted a lot of time because I wrongly believed that the 1970s version was done by Ofege. Now I've found the '70s version. I'm hoping that someone will hear this and remember the name of the person that covered it in the '90s.
