@lagcity I very much doubt that a thread would have sufficed if it were some senegalese(black) choir that sang "keresimesi". This thread is here because the almighty White people were involved. |

Rgp92: I would say you (as well as a lot of others) are missing the point. English is our first language in Nigeria, and is widely spoken. Yoruba is certainly not a language used by Western Caucasians. So of course, it's unusual to find a Caucasian speaking Yoruba, even more unusual to hear them singing in the same language. It is not unusual to hear a Yoruba man / woman singing in English, because English is a common language in Nigeria, and is taught in all schools. Yoruba is certainly not taught to Western Caucasians in the West. Get it? 1 Like |

Its so sad some people cant differentiate between a major language and minor language. There are official languages and unofficial languages. Yoruba language is not popular like English,French et al, Thank you Siena, they should google the most spoken languages in the world and see where English, French, Spanish, Mandarin,Port, ,is and compare with Yoruba, Igbo. Even Hausa,Swahili are more popular than Yoruba. So we should appreciate that these people chose Yoruba for their carol. The carol is not fake, read their lips very well. There are times the audio doesnt match with the video and I am sure some of you must have seen such videos. 1 Like |

they were not singing in yourba, the voice was imposed on the video. |

@newmusic Swahili,Igbo,Yoruba and of course Hausa are major languages, they are spoken by millions of people worldwide. |

tlops: There's no doubt whatsoever that they were actuallly singing in Yoruba. Watch their lips very well. |

Funny thing is that the white mormon choir singing the betelehemu song, were using proper Igbo drums and ichaka but you see no one making a noise over it. Some people really do feel inferior sha. |

@chipmunkey. Your name speak for itself and that your video is a doctored one not real. Nigerians are not fools or mugun. |

freecocoa: Its obvious you're pained by those videos,and just trying to mask your feelings and i'm sure those same choirs that sang in Yoruba today could sing in Igbo tomorrow or your language(whatever it is) and then you'd commend them,innit? You must be one Smart-ass sissy. |

obongproff: They may be Americans, and the choir may be high school kids even though they appear older. There's not much info here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-0qNSlzySk&feature=player_embedded |

Some people will never see anything good in what this choir has done as long as it is Yoruba. They will have preferred their tribe instead. This is the real definition of complex exhibited by some inferior beings that tremble at the mention of any Yoruba praise. |
