Didn't know this much Nigerians cared for country music tho. Aint gon lie it's not been long I started listening to country/western music, soul, black old school music including rap, reggae etc. I just knew something was missing each time I cringe to the jargons that play on tv both locally and internationally. I was in a place I needed serious soul searching and good music was the remedy. How overwhelmingly good was old school music? The lyrics, the message, addressing societal issues and personal struggles. Kenny Rogers was one of my favourite sing along musician, the gambler, Lucille, coward of the county, islands in the stream with Dolly Parton. I am a huge, huge fan of country music. Some of my other favourite; You never even called me by my name Take me home, country road Choices Coat of many colors Your cheating heart Walkin after midnight King of the hill I'm a man of constant sorrows Jolene(as a kid, my mum always plays this. I remember cus this one just sticks to your mind forever) The devil went down to Georgia(mad song, lol). I advice my fellow youths to indulge more into meaningful songs, of course old school music. You'd be surprised how much you can learn from music. Rest in peace Legend, thank you for contributing postively in my life. 5 Likes |

"I Will Remember You" (originally by Sarah McLachlan) I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories. I'm so tired I can't sleep Standing on the edge of something Much to deep. It's funny how we feel so much And cannot say a word We're screaming inside But we can't be heard I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories. So afraid to love you More afraid to loose Clinging to past That doesn't let me choose. Well, once there was a darkness A deep and endless night You gave me everything You gave me light. I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories. Remember all The good times that we had Let them slip away from us And things got bad. Clearly I first saw you Smiling in the sun I want to feel your warmth I want to be the one. I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories. I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories. Weep not for the memories. The memories... Sleep well Kenny Rogers! |
