EverGreen Tunes: Happy Birthday to You

Good morning everybody, Welcome to this Beautiful day of the 4th of October, 2016 and it is also an especially beautiful today as it marks the first Birthday of my son, Adekunfola.

Birthdays are those special days in each and everybody's lives when we get to be the stars of the family for 24hours. We get to wear those special occassion dresses and eat jollof rice garnished with spices and big turkey and not to forget my favorite part, get to play silly pranks with each and everybody and get away with it since everybody is out to make you happy.

It is also a time for reflection and taking stock of our lives as we get older. As a Guy, your family might subtly start weighing your life achievements with that your goody two shoes friend who now has a good job and a small car that he cruises round town. As a babe, that could be far worse has your mum would be disturbing you about when you are going to bring "MR. MAN" not "MR. RIGHT" to the house, because all your other friends have found someone to seize their last names.

Oh Birthdays! Source of joys to some and cringe to others. Oh well, That is not what this is about.


The "Happy Birthday to You" Song Which was Published in 1893 as a form Folk song by Writer Patty Hill and Mildred J. Hill (Sisters) is.

"Happy Birthday to You", popularly known as "Happy Birthday", is a song that is traditionally sung to celebrate the anniversary of a person's birth.

According to the 1998 Guinness World Records, "Happy Birthday to You" is the most recognized song in the English language,the song's base lyrics has even been translated into at least 18 languages I am not sur if Yoruba my main dialect is one of them though.

The tune of "Happy Birthday to You" was from the song "Good Morning to All",which American siblings Patty Hill and Mildred J. Hill in composed in 1893. Once again, the importance of team cannot be overemphasised and to do things together as a family, it transcends time.

Patty Hill was a principal in Louisville, Kentucky, developing various teaching methods while her sister Mildred was a pianist and composer.

The sisters used "Good Morning to All" as a song to teach young children but The combination of melody and lyrics in "Happy Birthday to You" first appeared in print in 1912, and probably existed even earlier.

It is worthy of note that of the early appearances of the "Happy Birthday to You" lyrics included credits or copyright notices so The Summy Company registered a copyright in 1935, crediting authors Preston Ware Orem and Mrs. R. R. Forman.

This is also another lesson to learn, that inspiration you work hard to create, patent it quickly or else another person might do it and take credit and monetary benefits for your efforts. (That's what most employers do anyways. You invent it and they patent it in their name)

In 1988, Warner/Chappell Music purchased the company owning the copyright for US$25 million, with the value of "Happy Birthday" estimated at US$5 million,the song is the highest earning single song in history, with estimated earnings since its creation of US$50 million.

The song however has been a subject to many a litigation process a many companies want their own piece of it's proverbial cake.

So short the song, yet it has connected to millions of hearts, families and of course purses. Ladies and Gentlemen, we present the lyrics of this evergreen and wonderful piece:

Lyrics
"Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday, dear Adekunfola
Happy birthday to you.
Lyrics with the melody


Traditions
It is traditional, among English-speakers, that at a birthday party, the song "Happy Birthday to You" be sung to the birthday person by the other guests celebrating the birthday. More specifically, the birthday person is traditionally presented with a birthday cake with lit candles, with the number of candles sometimes corresponding to the age of the person. After the song is sung (usually just once), party guests sometimes add wishes like "and many more!" expressing the hope that the birthday person will enjoy a long life. The birthday person may be asked to make a wish ("Make a wish!")—which he or she does silently—and then is supposed to blow out the candles. Traditionally, blowing out of the candles is believed to ensure that the wish will come true. Once the candles have been blown out, people may applaud, after which the cake may be served, often with the first piece being served to the person whose birthday it is.

In Australia, the United Kingdom, New Zealand and Ireland, after "Happy Birthday" has been sung, it is traditional for one of the guests to enthusiastically lead with "Hip hip..." and then for all of the other guests to join in and say "...hooray!" This is normally repeated three times. In Canada, especially at children's birthdays, immediately after "Happy Birthday" has been sung, the singers segue into "How old are you now? How old are you now? How old are you now-ow, how old are you now?,"

Oh birthdays! So when next you have the chance to sing this beautiful melody at a birthday Bash, remember, it took some two people out of inspiration to create something so small and something to phenomenal.

Come to think of it, this article too, is small yet it was created through the birthday inspiration, many more could still pop up though.

Get inspired and create something.

Until next time on Evergreen Tunes with Angel Dharmmy, Please and Please wish my baby ADEKUNFOLA AJIFELA IBIYEMI a wonderful and glorious first birthday.

-ciao

My Legacy... The Second Generation. (How fulfilling is their Independence?)

My sobowale is an accomplished Educationist who has three very thriving secondary schools. His wife, Madam Joke is also a renowned Beautician with a thriving chain of fully equipped salons as her place of practice. Together, they have four beautiful children who are well educated and living the good life.Dekunle is first son of the family is an Accountant who has worked with reputable Accounting firms and presently chairs his own high flying firm. Dedeji is a Pilot with an international Airline whose family has been based abroad since the inception of his nine year marriage. Dekemi, on her part, the first daughter is an accomplished lawyer who apart from her legal practice has a chain of supermarkets with branches in Nigeria and other countries which she co-owns and co manages with her husband, who incidentally is also based abroad with the family. The baby of the house, Demide is a US-based Nurse and already nationalised by marriage working with the US Army.There lies the problem, Mr & Mrs Sobowale are getting old and it's giving them a cause for concern, the fact that none of their children is interested in their businesses or their properties, which fortunately or unfortunately is very huge.They raised their children to be very independent, be their own persons and have their own things going for themselves. The other problem is the fact that none of their children is remotely intrested in anything along the lines of their businesses, that is , Education for dad and Salon for mum.Lately both parents have been thinking: "Who are we working for?" " What would be the fate of our company when we die?" "What is going to be our legacy ?" "Should these kida take this business out of respect, would they have the passion and zeal we had or would they just turn it over to the clutches of some Management consultancy outfit to run?""All my houses and cars are beautiful, Yes! But all the kids have theirs too, what would happen to them?" "Would they just sell them and keep the money?" Hell! They all have their money, infact they even send us money, which they know we don't need, we have more than enough.The ones abroad, they did out of fear of the Nigerian system, they don't say it but in reality we know. The parents are growing old and tired, they know but everybody is busy with their own thing and don't want to have anything to do with our property, they say : "We don't want the wahala of family oh! Before some people called family start using juju to fight us later now!". The religious houses are not even helping matters, they make it seems like all families are infested with witchcraft and are waiting for you to work and make it them pounce on you and take all you have laboured for, killing you or your immediate family in the process. "They are diabolical" " They are the evil powers of your father's and mother's house" fuelling resentment and hatred just to potray a lifestyle. To the children, they make it seem like child that want to stay and continue a tradition is "Omo to gboju le ogun" (a Child that is depedent on father's wealth) a lazy child. Now there are so many houses everywhere that parents have built, yet to keep a face, the children would rather go out to rent houses outside.What would happen to our legacy? Are we, the parents, really happy with some type of independence?We do need to talk about it.- its me again Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless handheld from Glo Mobile.

EVERGREEN TUNES : Nigerian National Anthem

As we celebrate the independence of our great country Nigeria today 1st October, 2015, we remember the name of great Nigerians that fought for the freedom of our country from our colonial masters. Names like Herbert Macaulay, Obafemi Awolowo, Nnamdi Azikiwe and many others come to fore.
However, we should also give kudos too to the unsung greats that have left for us Legacies that have been passed down from generations to another.
Children all over the country would be fully decked in the National regalia of GREEN,WHITE,GREEN matching in the sun and basking in the pride of the independence of our great fatherland.
One tune is so sure to be hummed or sung at the top of their voices and that is the NATIONAL ANTHEM.
The tune which was composed and adopted in 1978 to replace the former National Anthem: NIGERIA, WE HAIL THEE, was first arranged and performed by the Nigerian Police Band under the directorship of B.E Odiase.
The unsung heroes who together composed the National call and prayer include John A. Ilechukwu, Eme Etim Akpan, B.A Ogunnaike, Sota Omogui and P.O Aderibigbe.
The intresting fact is that the song and lyrics in composition,writing,scoring and all was a joint effort of different people from different tribes and tongues just like the diversity of the country Nigeria.
Let us take a little time and go through the lyrics and feel the richness of the evergreen and important brand identity of our great country, NIGERIA:

Arise, O compatriots, Nigeria's call obey
To serve our father-land
With love and strength and faith
The labour of our heroes past
Shall never be in vain
To serve with heart and might
One nation bound in freedom, peace and unity.
VERSE 2:
Oh God of creation, direct our noble cause
Guide our leaders right
Help our youth the truth to know
In love and honesty to grow
And living just and true
Great lofty heights attain
To build a nation where peace and justice shall reign.
Many artistes have rendered this tune nicely and even our beloved home grown legend 2face Idibia dropped a single this morning.
BEYONCE SINGING THE NATIONAL ANTHEM:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=w2xnxZRl7EE#
As you listen... Mediate on the lyrics and enjoy the INDEPENDENCE...
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE, NIGERIA !!!
