- Description: John Cosmos Owade was a rich patron of the singer. Since any party in the district was not complete without his music he was always invited to play, and it was J. C. Owade who footed the bill. He deserves this 'loving song' as he calls it. The melodies played on the accordion between verses seem to have little or no connection with the song except as an extraneous adornment. As the singer starts to sing a verse the accompaniment reverts to the background and allows the singer to sing in the traditional manner. Praise song for a friend with accordion, sound box (-12.16-) and iron (-12.151-).
