OLDIES SUNDAY (Christmas) Yole Derose – Tonton Nwèl Cheri (1989)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Bonjou, hope all is well with you all, and the holiday spirit is active. We have another Christmas selection for you for “Oldies Sunday“. For today’s selection, we head over to Haiti to check out Yole Derose’s “Tonton Nwèl Cheri (Dear Santa Claus)“.

Produced by Ansy Derose and released through Les Producteurs Artistiques in 1989, Yole Derose shares a special message to jolly ol’ St. Nick in “Tonton Nwèl Cheri”. Awaiting his arrival with much eagerness, the Derose takes the role of a child who wishes for gifts on Christmas as her parents are poor and unable to provide them. She makes a request for a doll, but later adds on more items to her list. She also shares of the misfortunes in her household as her parents are unemployed and unable to afford basic necessities, her brother is sick, but pleads that if Santa cannot give toys, at least send something that’s of major importance to the household. The song sheds light on some of the realities that people are facing during the holidays, as it’s not always cheerful singing and gift giving. “Tonton Nwèl Cheri” became a popular Christmas song in Haiti, and was featured on the album, “Quand Mon Cœur Bat La Mesure“, which was released in 1989. Over the years, it has received a number of cover versions, and remains a well-remembered Christmas song in Haiti, and other parts of the world.

OLDIES SUNDAY (Christmas): Ajamu – Ah Want A Little Something (2001)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Christmas time is upon us yet again, and we look forward to what’s in store. As usual, we have to put you on to some holiday music, and on “Oldies Sunday“, have some classics. Today’s selection comes from the Island of Grenada. We feature Recording Artist Ajamu’s track, “Ah Want A Little Something“.

Produced by Edson Mitchell a.k.a. Ajamu and released through Charlie’s Records in 2001, Ajamu gave the people another in his line of Christmas music with, “Ah Want A Little Something”. The song finds him making a couple requests for his fans. He has been known to deliver a song for the holidays yearly, and while he does it for the people, he’d love for them to give back to him for the season. He delivers musical gifts, but wishes for a gift or few himself. He kindly asks throughout the song, and hopes it won’t cause any problems after. “Ah Want A Little Something” was featured on his 2001 album, “Christmas Soca Parang“, and is one of his signature Parang hits.
