Andy my boy! I was in the middle of it all with these guys back in the day on Radio Nigeria Lagos! We were all my good friends. Whenever I see comments like these on UA-cam, it brings chills to my bones man, knowing that I knew these guys personally and I helped them all in my own little way to bring their music to the Nigerian people everyday on Radio. Those were some good ole days and probably the greatest era in Nigerian music. Thanks you all for the love. Peace!
In 2023, as Nigeria faces her greatest economic hardship after the rigged presidential election of February 2023, here am I, consoling myself with this evergreen music. I wasn't born when the song was released, but any Nigerians alive can relate. Great job Andy Shurman
It really does look that way. The more i live the more it seems i don't know what is the point of all the progress. When the economy shakes we all shake a little.
My brother this life is magical, i Remember the first time when my extend uncle took me on a holiday through ifesinachi bus from Onitcha to Lagos in 1989 and i keep hearing this music everywhere and when i was back in the village to finish my school, i think of nothing else other than to go out and conquer the world not knowing that Nigeria has nothing to offer it youths..
Yesterday I was with The Legend when he came to see my Dad, I brought out a Stereo plate of his song that I found at my Grandpa's sitting room , We talked at length, he is a real Legend 🔥
I wish for that more than u do brother, Lol. Cos the truth is that it doesn't seem like it was this same world, just seems like we were moved from the old gud world to an entirely different world of so much crimes and injustices. And no tru love among the people anymore. I believe we had the best of time Nigerian people may never experience again! One love brother!!!
Ooo my God Nigeria government just kill their talented star like that ooo😭😭😭😭where are this prophets that define the future of Nigerians ooo am still playing 2018
Wow! And what he sang is what the masses are still facing today in Nigeria. The masses always pay for the wrong policies of the government, for example the current CBN change of currency, such an ad-hoc policy that has inflicted hunger on many Nigerians. God bless you Andy Shurman 🙏
Does anyone know the whereabout of Andy Shurman? I hope he’s okay? He and many other like Ras Kimono, Isaac Black, Majek Fashek, Alex Zitto, Oritz Williki, Mandators, Peterside Othong, Evi Edna Ogholi, Obby Nwankwo, etc. were stars that made my growing up enjoyable. I still have goose pimples each time I listen to their songs. They were great!
A fine tune ...I find it more enjoyable to listen to this at 90% playback speed {I think probably anything from 88% -to- 94% is where many will find more enjoyment}
The message delivered in this song by this great legend, Andy Shurman is still the case in Nigeria today. It’s so sad! When this song was released, Nigeria then was better than today. May God bless Andy.
He didn't see anything; he was only singing what was happening at the time. The only difference is that it is worst now. Nigeria has never known progress since independence.
This Kind Of People We Called Great Musicians Not So Call Artiste Of Today's Hip Hop Where They Don't Have Anything To Sing Than Making Beats And Vocal Nonsense, God Blessed Our Former Legend Like Andy Shureman, Raskimono, Mandators Majek Fashek, Evil Adna And Others, All Their Music Are Ever Green, It Remembers Me The Early 90s When Life Was Sweet Even Though We Were Under Military Rules But Life Was Absolutely Beautiful With People,
I wasn't here when this song was released, I must have borrowed some wisdom from my ancestors, because I can 100% relate. Seems I lived in those days and I am overwhelmed with great nostalgic feelings. Craving to relive this time in the past. In my short stay here on earth, I have learnt that three things are certain, Life, death and good music will stand the test of time.....
😅. back in those days, I was in secondary school, I remember mediating on this song and I shade tears. That's when music made meaning. Live on my brother
@Rameco89,i swear God will surely bless and and protect ur family just for uploading this music on youtube,u will never work in vein,u will reap the fruit of your labour..Chai see music now.reminds me of my youthful age many years back,this used to be my best music way back..Ohhhhhhhhh..Am crying listening to this music,i shed tears whenever i listen to this music
I remember the olden days at isiala ngw I used to be one of the rastas then I was named raggae minister because of my ways of singing and composing raggae back then We can't forget the past from the future Andy shurman God bless you.
I just heard one this song been played by one of our security officers here at work and it immediately to me down memory lane 1989 to be precise my JS 1, when my friends and me used to mime this song and all the others of the time grate musicians i must say jah bless them all in no particular order Andy Shurman, Ras kimono, The mandators, Oritz Wiliki, Majek Fashek,etienti boy)
I remember the time when men were men. In the 1980s, 99.128 mega head Radio Rivers 2 FM Stereo Port Harcourt. People like Kiddy Jenkins Tebida, Jones Dumbe, Debra Ebikebina Paul Alozie and many others. But today, our Radio is gone and no more quality programs. Why the Retrogression?
Wow, damn it i completetly forgot this Track, finding it here is one of the best things that youtube ever did to me. I was too young but i can never forget this song. I fell home, i feel good and i feel the words Bless you ANDY SHURMAN and the dude who uploaded. i will play this the whole day in my studio. I still don't believe i came across this. Big up ya chest your Rudeboy

Is he still alive?
He is still alive?
Is there any way I can reach out to him? He deserves some respect
@@sammieo2946 yes he is very much alive
I grew up listening to this kind of African reggae music and it's gone a long way to shape the kind of music I do and I owe it to legends like Andy 👍
Beautiful old good days, wish i can turn back the hands of time.
dominic dominic u are right, unfortunately it can't be turn.
True talk Dominic..wish i could do same.
I wish for that more than u do brother, Lol. Cos the truth is that it doesn't seem like it was this same world, just seems like we were moved from the old gud world to an entirely different world of so much crimes and injustices. And no tru love among the people anymore. I believe we had the best of time Nigerian people may never experience again! One love brother!!!

Respect Sir
Andy Shurman.. One of our late neighbor , late ugochukwu, always play it. He told us the story of Amdy, as a shoemaker..
This guy saw what is going to happen to us now in those days I love this music.
That's why they called them legend.
He didn't see anything; he was only singing what was happening at the time. The only difference is that it is worst now. Nigeria has never known progress since independence.

One of my childhood favourite songs. God is great
The music was a great message to Nigerians. Thanks for the greate message.
When music was music. The present musicians just make noise and call it music.
This music fit into the current condition of Nigerian, let play it as a way of protest starting from August first
I just heard one this song been played by one of our security officers here at work and it immediately to me down memory lane 1989 to be precise my JS 1, when my friends and me used to mime this song and all the others of the time grate musicians i must say jah bless them all in no particular order Andy Shurman, Ras kimono, The mandators, Oritz Wiliki, Majek Fashek,etienti boy)
I remember an incident with this great guy at Crystal Park Hotel Aba during our radical youths days.
this are the days when nigeria music were revolutionary,
we need prophetic musicians eg. Emicetus, Andy shawman obi Igwe etc to and see the present situation of our country now
BACK IN THE DAYS.....WHEN LIFE IS REAL....!!!
True
I feel like crying now because of the massage this song carries
How will I ever forget this song, Andy my man
Does anyone remember Rommy Anderson? He had an album called Caterpillar. A track called " Minister " in the album was my favorite. Anyone??
who's gonna save the hopeless masses? it is now more than thirty years after the released of this plea and prayers, we are still hoping and waiting!
This so beautiful, music from the soul. God bless u Sir Andy Shurman
One the philosophers of music 🎉🎉
