This post features videos of the Ghanaian song "Tue Tue" (also known as "Tue Tue Barima").

This post serves as a companion piece to http://pancocojams.blogspot.com/2013/06/what-does-ghanaian-song-tue-tue-really.html "What Does The Ghanaian Song "Tue Tue" REALLY Mean?"

That post includes six examples of lyrics for "Tue Tue" and points out the widely different meanings which have been given to that song. Because of those conflicting meanings, the comments about what the song "Tue Tue" means or the purpose of this song that are given in the videos in this post should be received with great deal of caution.
