when he does the vocal loop in the breakdown, its a wow moment for everyone that appreciates music, this is a talented human being, keep spreading the love Mike
JAH thank you for your son mike, your holy spirit realy was there playing in all of the band and also the crowd, this is in the top 10 reggae history moments
My all time favorite song! I played this song over and over on loop the day I quit the corporate world over 5 years ago. It’s been a permanent holiday ever since, with a little poverty mixed in, but it’s been worth the ride. Now I own my own permaculture business and I often have Mike’s music in my ears while I’m digging in the dirt.
made me cry for about the first 15 times I heard this. Now I can hold my shit together and sing my head off. One of my most favorite songs ever. Thank you Mike Love!

@7:48 when they drop it dub style and the fire gets lit on the pitch black backdrop, they look slow motion and that scene in itself is hot! Love the vibes! Props to the lighting and effects guy too, 🔥!
I will always be quiet during the build up but as soon as pau I'm the first faka fo chee huuuuu 😂. I'm so grateful to have grown up with your music and your amazing passion and talent for music. You truly helped to shape my values and appreciation for a person's craft in any walk of life...as long as they pursued it as truly and beautifully as you do. I dunno if this will ever reach you Uncle Mike but I just wanted to say mahalo nui loa. Thank you for being you and keep doing what you do Edit: I'm from Honokaa and remember when you first started. Your first shows still give me chicken skin thinking about even almost two decades later. Thank you so much for being you till this very day! Your passion and hard work shine like the morning sun on Mauna Kea
Brethren & Sistren if you want to show some love to Mike in this pandemic time just please don't skip the ads. Mike's giving us real music so please mankind please show some love to MIKE LOVE! PEACE LOVE RESPECT! ❤💛💚
O does it help to not skip the ads?? If so I didn't know this. I will do whatever I can to support (no mo ey right now) but any way I can show love I'm all for it... Love Mike love and his existence is a gift

As a musician myself, what I love about him is how tight he is with his band (Inner circle); from 7:45 onward is insane (@8:22 you can see him look at the drummer and they both know it's fucking tight) and then the crazy ending! Love his musicianship so much.
It has never been more clear than now. We need to: Take back the knowledge, Take back the power.....It seems like the final hour for humanity has come unless we all stand up right now. If we all just went outside to play, and stop this imprisonment that's going on. We could all be free one day soon. Mike, Your music is really inspiring❤
@@edwinlooy6551 he is in the know ascension is upon us and because of the manipulation many are chosing to continue in the 3d realm!!!! They have prevented many from the truth! Luckily at least it will be a planet similliar to earth and no dark ones!!!!
I absolutely love how he says make your life a celebration the way things have been going this year surgeries procedure after procedure Covid 19 sicknesses illnesses I'm going through, pushed into menopause he's so right celebrate my life thank you Mike love and family... I am ecstatic I don't even know the words to say that I found you 6 months ago I wish I found you sooner but it's better late than never✌✌✌
I heard this song for the verry first time back in 2017 and it left me crying for over 3 months ... Felt like coming home ... In my Truth, In Unconditional Love and in my Power ... Thank You ! 💛🙏🏻💛
I just cant get over this song!! its literally chills every single time.. I cant half way listen either ... it's a whole mood, a whole vibe, a whole lifetime in a song
One of the most inspiring, truthful, and beautiful songs and music of all time. A Masterpiece also timely and so relevant to these times we are experiencing life as human beings. I, too, quit the 'physics - academic' world as I saw and experienced it not as 'a pure science' in service of humanity. Thank you Mike 💚😇🌄🙏
This song is a sum up of all the beautiful things in life. All the musical genres... oh God I can't find the right words to describe it. You are a living legend Mike.
"We refuse to be what they wanted us to be" (Robert Nesta Marley)🌟 "Take back the knowledge, take back the Power !" (Mike Love) ☀ One Love, One Heart, One Harmony! Greetings to you my Brother @MikeLove 💜💚 Oh how i wish i could have been there with y'all ! I love you💚 I'm grateful for the day i started listening to your Art & Soul🙏 Let God be praised 💫
When I listen to this song it makes me believe all the hell in the world is going to go away. I love you Mike Love. Sorry for over commenting. I’m just so stoked about these songs. Your songs are as righteous as Bob Marley. Strong Prayers are going out to you and your music every single day. I hope every single human on eating gets the chance to listen to you. One love
Oooof yaawl be living the liiife. Blessing for the live vibe dropping by my inbox as if by magic. Look forward to our paths crossing in the flesh. Keep on. Take care brother 🙏
Juuust bonkers. I've listened to this a hundred times over and I'm just now keeping up. In the world of looping this is a piece of art that we are going to recognize down the road because we couldn't understand it now. Mike, I love you
I think like a lot of people the first time you blew my mind was with this song, mustve been 2015-2016 opening for Groundation. It was so crazy to walk up to an opening act and just have my skull shattered of course culminating in the fragmented loop breakdown. awesome to see it translated in this full band setting so fluidly. Mike Love you are a Treasure thank you so much for what you do
Our daughter lives on the Big Island & turned us on to Mike Love on our last visit! Much love from Grover Beach, Ca! I miss the warm water, Island Breeze & vibe & the majestic & beautiful beaches! Would love to see you live someday on a beach in Hawaii!
when he does the vocal loop in the breakdown, its a wow moment for everyone that appreciates music, this is a talented human being, keep spreading the love Mike

Bague
The dynamics in this song is absolutely untouchable🙌🏾
There are levels to this game and this man is at the top & the truth!

You were right about the bells and whistles being on this version. Such a jam.
Oh, Lord I'm on a permanent holiday
I'm going outside to play
I ain't gonna slave away
Not for no corporate Babylon
I'm never gonna be a pawn
In their manipulation games
Oh, Lord I'm taking the reins
I'm breaking the chains
I'm never gonna kneel, no way
My prophet is Heaven sent
No preacher or president can lead I astray
They'll never know
I'm taking Jah highway home
Oh, I've got my own path to follow
Don't know if you'll overstand
I've got my, my... my own truth to swallow
And you know that if I could
You know I would throw my guitar on my back
Pick up the slack, and leave here tomorrow
But I know that I am a pawn of Babylon
I got to face the facts, embrace the ax
And cut these chains off my sorrow
So I'm on a permanent holiday
I'm going outside to play
I ain't gonna slave away, no
Not for no corporate babylon
I'm never gonna be a pawn
In their manipulation games
Ten thousand years of captivity
We must eventually open up our eyes and see
They're manipulating we with so much uncertainty
And so many mysteries
Why are so few questioning the unnatural state of things?
It's a nightmare
We're living in a nightmar
Everyone's living so scared
They're virtually unaware
Of this fear that rules their lives
Occupies, consumes their minds
This fear of bankruptcy
Financial impotancy
It's funny money, money, money
It's all this digital currency, woah, yeah
It's all this monopoly money
That keeps us from ever being free, ooh-oh-yaeh
And so it seems we'll be in this prison for life
'Cause if we keep buying then they'll keep selling the lie
So it's up to I and I
I... nip..., mind... and...
I... Rev..., make... cel...
I... change... man... words...
I... be...
I... own...
I... (be) nip...(late), mind... and...
I... (seek) Rev... (lation), make... (life) cel... (bration)
I... (be) change... (seeking) man... (fast) words... (speak)
I... (fuse) be... (prisioned)
I... (make) own... (cisions)
I (won't be) manip... (ulated), mind (controlled) and in... (undated)
I (will seek) the reve... (lation), make (my life) a cele... (bration)
I (will be) the change (I'm seeking), mani... (fest) the words (I'm speaking)
I (refuse) to be (imprisoned) I (will make) my own (decisions)
Oh, Lord
I won't be manipulated
Mind-controlled and inundated
I will seek the revelation
Make my life a celebration
I'm gonna be the change I'm seeking
Manifest the words I'm speaking
I refuse to be imprisoned
I will make my own decisions
I'm on a permanent holiday
I'm going outside to play
I ain't gonna slave away, no
Not for no corporate babylon
I'm never gonna be a pawn
In their manipulation games
Oh Lord, I'm taking the reins
I'm breaking the chains
I'm never gonna kneel, no way
My prophet is Heaven sent
No preacher or president can lead I astray
We'll never know
I'm taking Jah highway home
Ooh, I'll never go astray with na-na-na...
I'm leaving the past
And forwarding fast
'Cause freedom is here to stay
Oh, Lord we got to take back the knowledge
We got to take back the power
We got to take back the knowledge
We got to take back the power, oh-yeah
We got to take back the knowledge
To take back the power
Take back what they have stolen from our hearts
And we got to take back the esoteric knowledge
Oh, Lord for too long they've been keeping us apart
Oh yes, we got to take back the knowledge
Take back the power
Humanity don't let this be our final hour
Take back the knowledge
Take back the power
Humanity don't let this be our final hour
We got to take back the knowledge
Take back the power
Humanity don't let this be our final hour
Take back the knowledge
Take back the power
Humanity don't let this be our final hour
Take back the knowledge
Take back the power
Humanity don't let this be our final hour
Take back the knowledge
Take back the power
Humanity don't let this be our final hour
Take back the knowledge
Take back the power
Humanity don't let this be our final hour
Take back the knowledge
Take back the power
Humanity don't let this be our final hour
We got take back the knowledge
Take back the power
