    yeah those seems to be lyrics fot this song, but still googling them in many ways dont provide the anserw, it must be some only locally known song - i think so... thats why google dont know it
    anyway maybe someone have an idea about how to get this title?
    i dunno maybe some jamaican forums? or? can someone provide some link that might be helpful?


    Thank You for the help

    Miss Jamaica must know about Rundown,
    Miss jamaica most know about Salt fish,
    Miss jamiaca must know about Ackee,
    Miss jamaica must know, the National dish!

    These are the lines from a song I heard while in Negril.

    Sorry, don't know the name, just heard it in Negril,

    I think it came about during the Miss Jamaica contest,

    On an episode that aired a few weeks ago on Jamaica. I think it was hosted by Megan McCormick.

    Anyhow, the host was riding in the back of a taxi, and the driver was playing a song on his radio that had a phrase like "miss jamaica must know ackee...dah...dah...dah". The song stuck in my head, and despite my best skip tracing on the internet I cannot find it.

    If anyone knows the epsiode I'm referring to, or the artist/song I'm thinking of I would appreciate some help and knowledge.

    I am looking for the name or artist of this song.

    Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you

    "Miss Jamaica must know about saltfish
    Miss Jamaica must know... the national dish"
    (the 2nd line is the chorus)

    I have been looking for this song for over 2 years as well..

    Im currently inquiring with the JCDC
    - a Jamaican Culture institution for help trying to find this song.

    This is the hardest song I have ever tried to find.. Quite a challenge..

    of course I'll post any info i find here.

    sorry to say but i still did not found the artist / song title...
    and i think that it is not possible... - or very hard - some locally known song only (i think so)
