      Oh my gosh.. i love LOVE LOOOOOOOVE IT!!!
      Banky sounds amazing and M.I’s verse was inspiring. Infact, they all did an incredible job. Especially in times like this when there are so many issues in Naija, we need more positive songs from our talents…

      And just maybe it’ll help our super eagles exceed expectations this time around ohhhhh

      Saying it’s “Knaan featuring Banky W and MI” is misleading. Bella Naija should have stated it was a remix by the Nigerian artistes. There IS a difference.

    • bekeeeeeeee March 21, 2010 at 8:54 PM

      Breath taking NIJA for LIVE!!! PROUD OF MOI COUNTYR NIJA. No matter wat our leader are doing and those Abokis for North.

Cheers

    • eric April 16, 2010 at 11:49 AM

      u guys should read before you comment.
      The song was done by K’naan the original owner featuring Banky W & M.I.
      It’s a Nigerian version of the song in support of the Super Eagles.

      I listened to the original version and dozed off while driving cos it went on and on
      abd got boring…but this re-mix gave it so much life…k’naan should be thanking these
