I am of Indian origin. I was born in Takoradi, Ghana. I am 72 years old now. I remember this song vividly. I am so happy to find it on You Tube today. Wow.
This is the closest in proximity I will probably ever be to actual joyousness. I wonder what it truly feels like, so glad when I see people feeling joy.
Where in Japan? I’ve never heard it? Now I’m interested. I just saw it in a music book for a class I’m taking. This is the best version I’ve found. I like your name...mochi, ne?

Please don’t embarrass yourself. The song is from Ghana, Hector lavoe borrowed it.
ok I didn't have the correct information, sorry.
Where was this performance? Just noticed the audience is mostly white, maybe tourists?
The Netherlands
Yep, Hertme to be precise.
Why is the lyrics different? Amazing performance btw

Which Ghanaian language is this song in?
I think it’s the Akan languages
Twi I think
