She gained weight (am not sure if it's just the movies sha). I love her song especially the ONE LOVE KEEP US TOGETHER oh!! i love Chris song, do you remember: come come come come come, eh eh eh eh eh, loving my mother ABC, 123, Doremi, you and me I don't love you, goodbye teacher, when will i see you my dear teacher Chris rocked big time as we kiddies just watched as people get crazy with his songs he is pretty much around preaching and winning souls. his soulful voice eya |

Of all these list the names that struck my heart with affection and romance are bongos Ikwe, Stella Monye etc. even though it is understandable that some names in the list are late (dead) but they left a legendary works that should not air-off just like that- i remember Bongos' Still Searching and i am still searching for any of his CD that i can lay my hands upon. please if you have anyone you could spare i can buy or if you know any store that sells these oldies; i am seriously searching for Bongos Ikwe and Stella Monye's works. even if it means stella giving it to me!!!. |
Re: Where Are All This Musician Now? by ikamefa(f): 3:01pm On Jun 28, 2007 |

Re: Where Are All This Musician Now? by omoge(f): 9:56pm On Jun 28, 2007 |
yes my sister, the memory lingers. now that i feel grown enough to really listen and understand, i can't seems to get a hold of those songs. oh!! i love bongos ikwe, cock crow at dawn, i can only hear the sound of the cock crow at dawn. uncle gaga plant the corn and who go steal, lol, forgot how he used to sing it lol, oh my goodness. I love the other one, Show me a virgin in the maternity home, show me a river, oh! i feel so nostalgic. where is BONGOS IKWE by the way? is he still alive? please if you should lay your hands on his songs, please please remember a needy omoge of his songs. and his lyrics too. i hate the way we do things in nigeria you know, we just let their work die you know. see old Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Yellow man, etc one can buy their songs online etc, WHY NIGERIA WHY do you let their work not last forever? Anyone reading this should please help look for their work BIKONU |

@ikamefa & omoge: You can find the other thread at (I've never done this so I hope it's right): https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-61265.0.html You're both quite right--there are so many memories! @ikamefa: Thank you for anticipating my question! But, my dear, how do I say thank you in Igbo for being so delightful (as you always are)? |
Re: Where Are All This Musician Now? by ikamefa(f): 10:12pm On Jun 28, 2007 |
omoge: was it Bongos Ikwe that sang "On Mariama"? if so then i like him yes oh omoge i agree with you ,we don't have adequate planning in 9ja, even most of this Artistes made peanut-money during their careers so how are they going to be able to save and plan for posterity? Their recording companies then, was not helping matters,its only Abami -eda who lived outside 9ja and had good peeps supporting him ,its only felas' work you can get easily like dat |

I still cannot believe you could still grasp some lines, i dont even think i could except "I wake up everyday, to say my prayers , Etc", "thanking you mister D.J for playing my song". but you did a great work on your memory. keep it up. lets celebrate our great musicians. may be we could request for a special community here in nairaland that caters for such things were we could also paste their lyrics from those who are very vast about it. |
