I'm originally from Cote d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast). I just found this song we sang growing up in Abidjan and you can't imagine my joy tonite on the hills of San Francisco. Love to all my Nigerian brothers and sisters everywhere.
Pourtant notre star Antoinette Konan à reprise cette belle œuvre avec brio
@@ericniaba1716 Oui c'est vrai Eric, merci de me le rapeller:
Je me demandais où j'avais entendu ça. Merci @@ericniaba1716
@@DrJohnAdu ok cool
Nigerians 🇳🇬 love you too
I’m a Ghanaian was leaving in Nigeria in the 80s only God knows the number of time I have searched for this. love love this sone keep Rest well mama❤
Same here! We also lived in Onikan Lagos in the 80s, and this song, I have loved ever since ❤❤ ❤
@@danielvroom5862 awwww nice to meet you bro. We were leaving at aguda surulele
I was also at Oyo State. This song brings some nostalgic memories😍🥰
Where you one my Ghana teachers that putting a whooping on my behind in the 80's and early 90's 🤔😂
One good thing about Nigerian classics is that they never die ❤❤
There's no more music
Honestly!
Exactly
You’re right
That's why it's called classics.
They are everywhere.
La seule fois où j'ai regardé ce clip, c'était dans les années 90 , à la télévision ( RTI notre télévision nationale ).
Quelques semaines plus tard alors que je regardais la télévision avec ma mère, mon père et ma cousine, la même chanson passe à la télé, mais cette fois là, c'est Antoinette Konan qui la chante.
Alors que nous écoutions la chanson donc , j'ai fait savoir qu'elle n'était pas d'Antoinette Konan , mais qu'elle appartenait plutôt à une femme Nigeriane, et que j'avais déjà regardé le clip de la version originale.
Ils ne m'ont jamais cru et je n'avais aucune preuve ( pas de RUclips, Google,... rien ), et le clip n'est plus jamais passé en ma présence.
Aujourd'hui je retrouve mon clip et ma chanson près de 30 ans après.
NB: C'est mon fils qui utilise ce compte.
J'ai aussi qrui que c'est Antoinette Konan qui a vraiment chante cette chanson dans les années 2000 a Tempo
You are right, the music legend Christy Essien-Igbokwe is the original owner, author composer, and producer of this song. She released it ìn 1981
If u listen to this song back then r u still single? I'm still single n it makes me realize how old I am now. I thank ALMIGHTY GOD for Life. Truly beauty is in d heart not in d face
No heavy make up, no flashy jewelry, no naked clothes. Just pure music and beauty.
Gone are the days ladies sang. Now, they expose their bodies.
Those good old days! Now Demons have taken over!
You have said it all 👍. No heavy make, no naked bodies, just pure and simple music, exhilarating music ❤❤❤
This song remind's me of our early childhood that we all had a dream of a great and better Nigeria, a time when all tribes and regions lived as one Nigeria until our present witch craft, wicked and heartless politicians came onboard and messed up our future. Ma, may your soul rest in peace. You brought pride to us as a Nation. RIP Ma.
Reading your comment and shedding tears.
May her Soul continue to Rest in Peace.
So beautiful. I'm hearing this for the first time at the tail end of 2024 and it's an instant favorite. RIP gorgeous soul.
As a child I couldn't understand the words because I'm Igbo, but this was undoubtedly one of the best songs of yesteryears... God bless her soul.
still fresh even in 2024, this was when music was a thing of the soul
😢

@@Christy_Essien_IgbokweThought so. Always ever saw the video of her Seoul performance (which she won!) as video for this song on TV. Love love love love her! Always mining her songs as a kid. Those songs! Her voice!!Her acting, wow!! Natural, effortless beauty. Class. Dignity. No negative press about her. Ever. Pure talent, can sing, act and dance. Check out her beautiful shape here. And graceful steps. And then, check out her fiery dance in Tenu Lu Nla decades later. What!!?? And she's not Igbo. So, must've learnt Igbo dance as an adult, married to an Igbo. Yet, that her solo energetic power dance routine is FIRE🔥!! Worthy of an award even today.
Continue to rest well ma'am, the forever Lady of Songs.
A class act!
In foreign land. US? So, this song was recorded & backed up by whites? Always thought the "Seun Rere" chorus has this tinge of foreigness to it eachI hear it. Now I know why. Deeper respect!!
A full backing band😢 of pure whites in a foreign land too!! Deepest respect.
But, it should've been out out way back then, to uplift her pedigree so she could personally take her flowers for this feat while she was here.
She is still here though. Take your flowers Mama.
Thank you so much you made my mom's best song
It has no an expiring date
The bassist men
I love this song

Who want to translate it for us ?
Song that is making me to cry and I don't know why... why other things dint die and greatness stays forever?
This all things must come to an end is not very nice o. I just can't stand seeing her in this video, as if she's my biological mum. I've always loved her since when I was a child, but now my first time to see her and I can't stand anymore, God come and help me please.
Me too, what brings the tears is those old time. When think back to those days you shed tears.
