[@skyeagle1473]

Lived in Agona Swedru in the 60's. As a kid I regularly sneaked to a nearby beer bar to listen to this song played on an Akasanoma record player. I think 33-1/3. Truly nostalgic

[@charlesokonkwo9452]

[@missbabyloved7531]

Meaning of the song: A brother praising his sister Serwaa Akoto in beauty and good manners, especially when she dresses: "galanten (the olden type of wooden wedge 👡👡shoes). 😄 my fav. song

[@MensahAcademics]

For me... this is African genius at it's best. The musical layers are complex and simple all at once. Timeless and beautiful like the African spirit at it's purest.

[@isaacgbornor7686]

This is a piece of our Ghanaian history i dedicate it to all the good women out there

[@idristetteh7969]

I still cannot stop listening and singing this song! My all time high-life love song. Love the wisdom in the love song!

[@uchechime6244]

This song describes my family,my late dad lived and died listening to these songs,my siblings and I didn't quite understand the meaning but the way my parents listened to it expressed great quality and maturity.We from the southeastern part of Nigeria grew up listening to Ghanan music especially RAMBLERS DANCE BAND & AFRICAN BROTHERS not forgetting CITY BOYS BAND. Kudos for putting these songs for us to relish and reminisce on the past.

[@missbabyloved7531]

Uche Chime. Meaning of the song: A brother praising his sister Serwaa Akoto in beauty and good manners, especially when she dresses: "galanten (the olden type of wooden wedge 👡👡shoes). 😄 my fav. song

[@Nadel60]

MissBabyloved What an awesome way to advertise a sister,probably to get her a good suitor. It also could have been a good way to put any guy who's in her life on notice that: "I love my sister, handle her with love and respect; you just can't mess with her....she's too precious to be messed with ". Interesting!...hahaha

[@idristetteh7969]

Wow! Then your parents were so African! True Africans!

[@manudannis5301]

this is a song we suppose to play in our radios and Fm stations.

[@EmmanuelTwumasi47]

For those who will wonder for years to come what the real meaning of this song is... Here goes. A comment for the children of the future. Serwa Akoto was a pretty, calm and well cultured girl who lived in Kumasi. She was a childhood friend of the singer as they grew up in the Ashanti capital. The general thought is that, Yamoah was to marry Serwa as they had been seeing each other for a long time. However, Yamoah rose to stardom with his music. And along came the fair Lizzy. She charmed Yamoah effortlessly and through a freak of decisions, Yamoah was soon to find himself married to Lizzy, leaving the dark beautiful Serwa Akoto for light skinned Lizzy. Soon thereafter, he came to understand that he had been deceived. It seemed Lizzy's beauty was only on the surface. She was trouble for Yamoah. She didn't love him and wouldn't do her duties as were required. She was rumored to chase other men. He knew what he had done. Serwa had loved him to the moon and back. Serwa was very devoted. But Serwa had now been taken. His sadness knew no consolation. He compares Serwa in the song to cool waters and comfortable bed wrappers in the cold night; about Lizzy, he says that if it were for her alone, the hunter can never come home with game. The home problems will apparently weigh so much on him, he wouldn't be able to concentrate to kill a single game. It was with this sadness that he sang this song. Without a doubt, he came to realize only too late that, not all women were like our well cultured Serwa. Our women must aim to be like Serwa and our young men should be vigilant lest they end with a Lizzy.

[@dorismensah9806]

And who gave u de explanation to dis

[@EmmanuelTwumasi47]

@@dorismensah9806 The explanation? This isn't a theory. This is history. So if you mean who told me the story, it was a friend's grandmother.

[@BabeDebz]

can somebody explain to me what a koto means please

[@biyo3661]

I think Akoto is her name. I do not understand all the lyrics but enough to know she is a remarkable woman. If someone could please explain.

[@francisdanso866]

Serwaa Akoto is the name of the band leader's late wife. The song portrays her as a beautiful virtuous wife. ''Men wouldnt have sleepless nights if all women were like her''. dats the meaning of the song. Nice cool classical anyway!

[@ericmensah2040]

Shame on you, Yaa Serwaa! Or should I say blame your parents for not teaching you how to speak Akan or tell you about Akan names? Oh poor you....you've lost your roots. Sankofa is not a taboo. It's never too late though; go back and learn.

[@andrewowusu279]

Eric Mensah don't be shallow minded. You don't know the situation of the lady who asked that question

[@ericmensah2040]

Do you understand what you just wrote? Shallow minded? By the way, did I blame the lady for her situation? I said she should blame her parents.
