    Love this song, one of those always in the crate tunes, I had some friends asking about it recently, wondered what the interest was about all the sudden?

    Aleit, you got any recommendations of stuff with this similar sort of sound?

    funny story.

    oby onyihoa was actually a motivational speaker in lagos. "enjoy your life" was a record given out at his seminars.

    he would have written a book, but was illiterate. so the story goes, anyway.

    legend has it that he would wrap up every one of his speeches with a rousing solo version of 'enjoy your life' sung entirely through a kazoo. the kazoo itself was a metaphor for his enjoyment.

    of his life.

    he is still singing his way to the top of the self-help heap in west africa. as i'm sure you know, it's a multi-million dollar industry over there.

    last i heard, he was running for president, although i cannot corroborate these claims.
