price nico mbarga was born and raised in nigeria in the city of onitsha by cameroon father and a nigerian mother from the tribe of igbo his familly relocated to cameroon when nigeria started civil war in 1960 when the war ended they moved back to nigeria, please my brother let us stop arguing and listen to the good music
each time i listen to this song it bring back d good old days whem me,engr olabode,marshll,yemi olabisi were in school,ah,how i wish i could turn back the hands of time.men,i miss my guys....well go dey enjoy by myself till i c u guys in naija again.
I love this Song.I was born in Africa living now in Spain but when i lister to this song i remember all my african Fellas :Nigeria,camerun,Congo,Gabon,Ghana,Benin,Guinea ecuatorial etc etc cause all africa is one,so ig hug for my people from Africa
why r u quoting wikipedia for us?which country's national passport did he carry?He carried a Nigerian Passport.Where was this classic produced?It was produced by Rogers All Stars in Onitsha, Nigeria.That he came to cameroon during the civil war does not mean he came for musical inspiration!Cameroonians should go and look for their authentic music hero.Prince Nico represents the excellent spirit of the Nigerian
ur such a retard he was born in nigeria he is nigerian, he only spent 5yrs in cameroun or kamelRuin( wateva dat meant) and rest of is life in nigeria.ur so stupid to say he got inspired by living in a francophone country
"kamelRuiner's dnt even speak english not to talk of pidgin" U should get off nigeria's butt meaning stop begging innit. stupid ass
i am dedicating Dis song 2my lovely&sweet mum Lolo Francisca(stainless ohamadike),who's always dea 4d family.A woman loved by all d family member,a woman whom my dad wishes 2marry in d next.mummy i pray dat God will give you long life and good health so that you will enjoy the fruit of your labour.Mummy you are one in a million and will always be mum even in the next world.please God i also beg you to give me somebody like my mother as a wife.i love you mum,GOD BLESS YOU.4rm Nwafada in Poland.
You don't need to e from nigeria to love this song. Is for everyone all over the world. To love Mothers and wives they suffer alot. This is the love of children all over the world to the beloved Mothers
Oh my life. When did this one come out? I'm sure this is older than myself. Wow. There are so many versions of this song. Does anyone have the Gospel version.
Another thing I would like to add is thanks to all of you who grace us with these old tunes
I grew up on this song! The original one by Prince Nico Mbarga enjoyed good radio play in Lagos and is still played on the airwaves sometimes nowadays. It's a classic and I can't get enough.
Love this video.Plz can some one post the following? Prince Isaac Black,Felix Liberty,Alex O,Andy Show Man,The mandators,Onyeka Onwenu,Sonny Okosun,Obewe,sunny Bobo,Daniel Wilson,Blacky,Dready Boys,Evi Edna Ogholi,Ese Agase,Dayo Kujore,Dele Taiwo and Christy Esien Igbokwe. All these are musicians from Nigeria.
my mother i will forever love...the most thing i love about this song is that she sang it in a language we nigerians can understand..kudos..this song will live forever
I must give credit to the lady for her ingenuity in giving a french version of this classic song in honor of all mothers. Like every other classic work of art, it deserves to be translated in every langauge. The ingenuity of this work is further attested by its close semblance to the original version. Well done!!!
esta cancion abla un poco de la paz y acerca del amor a una madre estos no son comentarios para esta cancion ten clasica
me acuerdo de las verbenas de mi barrio las tres ave maria en barranquilla donde la variedad de generos es mucha,Sweet Mother me encanta cuando voy ala esquina de mi casa en lña rockola no tengo que pasar sin dejar de escuchar y ver el video tilda te amo atte william meza un gran admirador
I am italian but I lived in Africa for 10 years when I was a kid, and I'll never forget Nigeria...I left a piece of my heart there! I remember this song. This version is cool!
If you knew the dictionary meaning of that word , which I am sure you don't, you'd know that it best discribes empty headed fools like you. Get a life.
Who ever said I used the definition "Nigger" as the one you found in your dictionary, majority of the people would know used the term Nigger as a slang
as a offensive word to African Americans,
but I guess you had to an fag and look for other definitions, either way there both offensivewords so there is nothing wrong with my comment besides its rudeness
Oh sweet Mother, I'll never forget you. I love this song like the way I love my mother, it is truly representing my mother and I can clearly see the picture of my mother in the track. From when she started carrying me for nine months in her womb and gave birth to me soundly, care for me till I become who I'm today, I wanna say thanks to all the MOTHER'S IN THE WORLD, Thomas Sylvanus Gbondo,Australia.
tight is this the orignal??? either i love this song so much this song was nominated for one africas greatest alltime universal songs, it represents such a big part of african cultre. Go momma's!!!!
im very very young a 90's child and this song is one of my favourites its one of africas best songs and most importantly a great tribute to motherhood.
This song brings back so many memories. I can remember my mother and aunts in the kitchen cooking and talking. My father and uncles in the basement drinking and talking loud. Me and my cousins playing. And at the end of the day we all eat Fufu and light soup. Great memories!!!
awesome work =)) good job keep it up congrats
