Music in the past played different roles not only social cultural development but also mental development.
Love songs most especially took a center stage in helping to strengthen family ties, lovers affection for one another, etc
It was also the fastest medium of communication often used in admonitions in a relationship.
Little wonder a famous quote says ” That music communicates that which is very difficult to explain”.
One of the most popular love songs which I often refer to as ” Old wine in New Bottle “was the recent collaboration done by the Evil Genius of Highlife music in Nigeria Dr. Victor Abimbola Olaiya and the African Queen Crooner 2 face Idibia.
This song has oftentimes given different titles like ” Mo Fe Mu Yan, Baby Jowo, Baby Mi da, etc has come to stay in the history of timeless evergreen love songs in Nigeria.
For many who don’t know this song was composed by Dr. Victor Abimbola Olaiya for his most junior wife ” Abimbola ” who shares the same name with the artists.
