Ihunanya.. by Cavemen, arr. Iremoko Michael — Lyrics
About Ihunanya..
"Ịhụnanya" (Love) is a vibrant choral arrangement of the popular highlife tune originally performed by the Nigerian highlife duo, The Cavemen. Arranged for four-part harmony by Iremoko Michael, this piece captures the infectious, joyful groove of modern highlife and translates it beautifully for vocal ensembles. It is a pure celebration of love, peace, and the joy of coming together, making it a fantastic choice for wedding receptions, choir concerts, end-of-year celebrations, and festive social gatherings where a lighter, secular repertoire is needed.
The lyrics seamlessly blend Igbo and English, moving from the hopeful anticipation of love and peace arriving ("Mgbe ịhụnanya abịa o") to a lively, rhythmic declaration that "we will keep jamming, we will keep singing." As the voices layer over each other, the song builds into an irresistible invitation to dance ("Bịa gbara m egwu"). It is a piece that brings a relaxed, celebratory energy to any choir's folder, guaranteed to get both the singers and the audience swaying to the rhythm of the "egwu ịhụnanya" (dance of love).
