I decided to play this song today on my birthday. I grew up listening to Obey's song. This album was the first music my father bought in the early 70's in Warri, and played it on our first music box popularly called gramophone. Although I am not Yoruba, but I recall as kids we could sing every words of the many Ebenezer music my father bought. The music represents my family, and the love and happiness we shared as we listened to these songs together as a unit. My parents are long gone now, but this song especially evokes fond memories of the beautiful life we had together. God bless the maestro, Ebenezer Obey.
This song has touched many lives since “Chief Commander” Ebenezer Obey released it in the 70s. I was in ABU Medical school at the time and knew every note and lyrics even though I’m Igala from then Kwara State. It was during hurdles of my career advancement as a gynaecologist in Nigeria that I found the song calming as well as encouraging! “Do your best and live the rest” was always a recurring decimal in my struggle to reach the top of my medical career. Thankfully I’m contented that I got there. God bless Ebenezer Obey. Amen. Dr Ibrahim Wada OON
My whole family is born and bred in between Ghana and Togo, whereas each one of them traveled to Nigeria, i was the only one left behind. Growing up was listening to this song including many others. Anytime i meet my 9ja have been siblings/family members i would mimic this song as if i was there when it was recorded, to the amazement of all. I can say that most of them had forgotten the song until I'll raise it up, though i don't comprehend a single word Yoruba? Obey was singing. This song really takes me back to my teenage years growing up alone without siblings who were having it better in Nigeria than myself in Ghana. 1 naira was equivalent to $1. Evergreen memories. Ile aye ingbaji aye ni ooo!
I started listing to chief Ebenezer obey while in Taxi during secondary schools days . We will like to select Yoruba taxi drivers that has obey music . This is in the 1975 .
I'm an Eʋe from Ghana but I started listening to the legendary lyrics and rhythms since I was a teenager. I carry it with me anywhere I traveled to around the world. Though I don't understand the lyrics, it's just so soothing to listen to one of Africa's greatest. I know my sons and their sons will surely revere you, Chief.
Just to add that though you don't understand the lyrics, the lyrics are rich words of wisdom that no matter one does he or she can never satisfy or please the world. So, we should just do as we deem fit irrespective of what the "world" say.
Am not from his tribe, but each time I listen to his songs I remember the good time I had with my father when he was alive because it was his favorite and now it's my favorite songs too though I don't understand the lyrics of the song but believe me I can communicate my Daddy with the song.
Whenever I am missing my late Dad I always play this song. "The horse the man and the son by Ebenezer Obey". It used to be my Dad best song when I was a kid. He always play it countless times and even though I was a kid and didn't understand wat the song was conveying , I fell in love with the song as well. I still missed u Dad and I just finished listening to the song again .. Rest on Dad..
I’m Ghanaian. Though I don’t understand any of the lyrics I love this evergreen masterpiece. My dad use to play this song when I was a kid. I’m old now and still don’t get tired listening 👂. OMG 😳 it a nerve calming music. I really love ❤️ the part which goes by ‘’ Commander Ebenaza do your best and leave the rest’’
the song is talking about how you can never please or satisfy human beings not matter what you do, some people will always find fault even if you are trying to mind your business and not disturb others he never gave different example from when one is growing up as a baby till a working adult, people find faults in you as you grow up and not necessarily because you do them any wrong it's an interesting music full of insightful lessons about human relations
As a young man in my mid 30s today, i fell in love with these evergreen songs in 1999 while we were on our way to southern Nigeria from the north listening to it in my father`s 504 i remember that day vividly seems like yesterday. Thank you Baba for your great work sir , may you live longer in good health in Jesus name (amen)
If you really want to start remembering what happens in the olden days, just listen to this kind of music, you will see how things have changed so much about life.
Though am very young but every evening my dad turn on radio and they do play this beautiful song i can never forget the lesson and remembrance of olden age it gives me
My dad plays this everyday when we are going to school and when he comes to pick us from school when we were In primary school, I never get tired of listening to it now I'm about to enter university God bless Ebenezer obey. So Nostalgic
Ebenezer Obey is a blessing to the world 🌍 the Lord will continue to strengthen Him in Jesus Name. I made up mind that that l will wait on God in choosing life partner when l listen to his music on Wedding and l thank God that l didn’t cut corners, God gave me a wife like mother. All Glory to God.
I started listening to this evergreen piece in 1973 at Oshogbo train station in my secondary school days. 47 years later, the love has heightened. Ebenezer is a blessing to this part of the earth.
I started listening to Obey’s masterpiece as a little boy in elementary school at Oshogbo. Obey’s highly didactic music has become part of me wherever I go. May God continue to keep and bless him. Obey is not just a musician but a philosopher and an Ambassador of Christ.
During my youthful days,I enjoy listening to these music, during those days,we use to call it Juju music,and we can play it more than hundred times even do we don't understand the language, it's more than honey.❤❤❤❤❤. And today all what we are listening is rubbish and trash.
Evergreen timeless masterpiece by the Chief Commander himself, Ebenezer Obey. Several generations yet unborn are sill going to listen to this music and pick up Words of Wisdom from it.
Ebenezer Obey music cuts across tribes. I failed in love with his music as far back as 1973, when my elder brother wedded at Ihiala. Board member was the signal tune. The memories lingers.
IS REALLY HARD TO PLEASE PEOPLE ISN'T IT? COME AND DANCE EBENEZER, DO YOUR BEST AND LIVE THE REST. THAT'S IT. NICE ONE. OLD SCHOOL IS ALWAYS OLD SCHOOL, AND IS THE BEST FOR THE BODY AND SOUL 😊❤
Quand LA MUSIQUE ( le son et la parole ) adoucissait les mœurs. Il y avait un sens voilà pourquoi elle n'est pas altérée. C'est l'interprétation du fable de La FONTAINE
OBEY is one of the best musician that brought all the whole Nigerians together his music knows no boundaries I don't even know weather the IGBOS love him more than any other tribe in Nigeria like myself talk about board members I don't know where to start
