@trinicuteness Thank You. I'm glad. You enjoy the David Rudder song "Hoosay" from 1991. This was his best social commentary song of all time. Mr. Rudder is a true master calypsonian.
One of the most beautiful songs ever song by a Trinidadian. Thank you David Rudder for paying homage to the past, and educating the present through the harmony of calypso. Keep this art form alive brother.
the lyrics of this song are so rich, the imagery....i was listening to the live CD from the concert in 1997 in the Stadium - one of Rudder's best. It actually makes me sad to think about how our innocence was lost in 1990!!!
And all the richest blessings to David Rudder for taking the time to know it, love it and embrace it as we have done.He is not only an artist, but a gentleman as well!
That night we carried on with our beloved Hosay in our yards, our minds and our hearts... I was only 8 at the time but I remember how my elders kept Hosay alive in such a dark, uncertain time. When you see things like that you know you're in good hands with those who hold true to what they believe in. I come form a family rich in Hosay history and to this day, it will be my fortress of inner strength defined by pureness of heart. Allah's richest blessings on those who sacrifice yearly for it!
this song touches me very i love it and i also feel the vibe

@nicam7769 our innocence was lost long time before this; arena massacre, hosay massacre, 1970 army coup, labour riots.
it was just lost for a new generation. powerful song!

It's too bad that not too many people out in the music world know about David outside of T&T; This man's lyrical prowess is amazing.
