Told you you whould love it .THE STORY BEHIND THIS SONG IS UNBELIEVABLE.THE ORIGINAL ARTIST LORD CREATOR.HAD NO MONEY SO UB40 ASKED IF THEY CHOULD RELEASE IT AND THEY GAVE ALL THE MONEY TO HIM AND HIS FAMILY SOTHEY CHOULD PURCHASE A HOUSE.
Wow I never knew this I love this
Not exactly how it went. Although royalties did enable him to buy houses for family. There were disputed claims as to authorship and ownership of the song. But the UB40 single definitely got him out of a real tight spot. Lots of details here. jamaica-gleaner.com/gleaner/20140504/ent/ent5.html
Love this!
@@natasilbery6935 Me too! How cool we just heard it for the first time with J! Love it!
they did that for a lot of Jamaican artist who were especially screwed over by island record- labour of love 2 was produced for that main purpose. Watch the Harder They Come shows how it really was for Jamaican artists getting hits abroad but still penniless
The group is actually multi-racial.
There’s 2 Rasta’s, a mixed race guy and the rest are White.
A very popular thing back in the UK around late 70s/early 80s. Great times! 😎
Edit: The band has split into 2 separate groups now, and the Campbell brothers (lead singers) don’t speak anymore. It’s so sad!
Aswad, dont turn around, brilliant
Lin703 Yeah, Aswad were great too!
One of my favourite bands
The campbell brothers don't speak anymore because the younger brother died of Cancer.
Mason Antonijevic What are you talking about?
They are both alive and kicking! 🤨
Believe me, if one of them died it would be all over the News in the UK.
Ub40 are from my hometown Birmingham UK, they are a multiracial group. Ali campbell (singer) has just done a charity single for coronavirus/nhs. Kingston Town is by far their best one. ☺️
I'm so proud to be from the same city as this band man. Gotta be some of my favourite music of all time.
Check out UB40 singing "Food for Thought" or "Many Rivers to Cross".
My favorite is "burden of shame"
Come back darling.....
Tyler, moving...
Love many rivers to cross. Check out the Jimmy cliff one too
UB40 are mixed race, forgotten how much I love this band! This is a cover version but most of UB40s were I think. Ali the lead singer left the band about 12 years ago after falling out with the management, his brother took over the singing, a couple of months ago he unfortunately had a stroke but is said to be doing well.Ali is singing this
Jemma James the Labour of Love series of Albums which included this track(Labour of love 2)were covers albums.
Jemma UB40 have made several cover albums but they have also made around 20 other original studio albums check them out.
It’s really fitting that your first reaction is to Kingston on your celebration day. Reggae = home ♥️
Bob marley legends
@@judicaelrodrigues6767 yes! 💯❤️
We have seen UB40 3 times in concert, they are a GREAT live band. Miss ya Astro and Brian, RIP guys and thanks for all the great music and fun times.🤟🏼
The way your face lit up when this one got going... Priceless!
Can't lie love UB40. Yes they are brothers and still gong strong today. Please do I in 10. Such a good Jay. Great choice great reaction. Pukka 😊😊💖💕💖
The brothers are not "still going" as such,they are in two different versions of UB40
@@normandavidtidiman9918 in a band together or different ones they are still going are they not. But thanks 👍
This is how greatness can occur when you grow up in a multi cultural area.
Birmingham born and bred 👊🏻
Yeh loved their music and still do... But went to see em and was well disappointed.... First of all they were all so fat they wobbled onto the stage and then fu#k me the music was louder then the vocals..... Good job we knew all the words!
Brum is finished like whole uk
I saw them live twice it was one of the best concerts I had ever been to and I have been to many.
grew up with these guys- we were literally on each others houses as kids in the Heath
Ali Campbell has such an amazing voice 💖
I like early UB40 best....The Earth Dies Screaming is a great cover track by them. 👍
Yes the first 4 or 5 albums are their best with the old school eighties sound.
Not to mention Food for Thought and KIng
What do you mean "cover" track ?
Go to Jamaica in the 1960s and you'll find lots of Jamaican artists covering the Beatles and Rolling Stones. Fast forward 20 years and young British acts are covering Jamaican music from the 60s and 70s. Isn't music amazing?
Now you have to react to their version of Can't Help Falling in Love!
Check out a great regae song by them called Homley Girl.
Not the original
Live this one as well, so manny great hits! They are still touring (separately) too bad, nothing like the originals!
The original is really good to
@@vivennestevens9280 They did 4 cover song albums. All called Labour of Love, 1, 2, 3 and 4, but they also made about 20 albums of their own music. I would argue their covers are better than the originals.
Bro there is so many good UB40 songs out there I recommend you just listen to a best of album. Growing up in New Zealand this was my favorite band as child so much great memories ♥️👍
UB40: "I can't help falling in love with you"...great cover
UB40 is the shit. From their originals to their cover songs. And they're great live. Dope reaction bro 💯💯
J💝Y you’ve got to listen to their first album “signing off” Its my favourite. UB40 was named after a form/card in the 70’s and 80’s you got when you signed on to receive unemployment benefits off the government. The whole band were unemployed hence then name. The album was named signing off because they were earring money from their music and came off benefits.
Their signing off was one of the best albums. Saw them in the 80s and had booked to see them this year...have to be next (hopefully)
There's a new band just come out called 'Where Is My Universal Credit'
Greatest two songs in my humble opinion was The Earth dies screaming and One in Ten from UB40 x
Their early stuff, that they wrote themselves was definitely their best stuff. Love the old reggae covers, but you still can't beat the originals.
My favourite UB40 song has to be “Don’t break my Heart” but this is a lovely one.
ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND subscribers!
That's so incredible. You deserve it my friend. Congrats!!
_Some great UB40 tracks:_
Homely Girl
Groovin'
If It Happens Again
Wedding Day
Don't Break My Heart
Rat In Mi Kitchen
Impossible Love
Cherry Oh Baby
One in Ten
The Way You Do the Things You Do
Maybe tomorrow is a good one too
The energy at Ub40 concerts is something to be experienced Jay! Rat in Mi Kitchen is a good one..so many.
'Rat in me kitchen' is by The Beat!
Yes saw them in Australia a year and a half ago, they were amazing! Anyone who sees them has to see the band with Ali and Astro, they’re the best.
@@jamespasifull3424 UB 40 does Rat in Mi Kitchen too
Saw them so many times in the day... Each concert was perfection.
@@jamespasifull3424 Dont think so, 1986 sung by UB40.
Great band, from my home town of Birmingham, like E. L. O and black sabbath moody blues and many more, love it.
They are celebrating in Kingston town! 100K!
UB40 was my favourite band, love the reggie sound to their music, any song made you dance and sway to the music.
Love love love ub40 this is my most favourite song by them I'm dancing round listening to it !!!!!!
I'm with you there my friend what a quality quality song.
Yay, this is one of my fave UB40 tracks, Jayvee!
Mine too! 😊
Watching this young guy enjoy this track from my youth made me smile : )
I Got You Babe, a duet cover of Sonny and Cher he did with Chrissie Hynde of the Pretenders. Her voice rocks too!
UB40 are from my home city, we used to watch them perform regularly, they got their name from the unemployment form that was used to sign on, so glad you got to watch this
The first time I heard UB40 I was in my friend's house and he gave me earphones and played present arms. I thought the singer was black. My god I fell in love with these guys. AMAZING 👏.
Absolutely loved this band in the 80s. It's a mixed group band.
UB40 is the best! Concerts are a dancefest! 💖
LISA STANSFIELD!!!! LISA STANSFIELD!!!! She has a BEAUTIFUL VOICE. Please listen!!!
I lived in France for 6 months +.
This song was No. 1 in the charts before I got there, and it was still No. 1 when I left.
UB 40 Food For Thought or Rat in me kitchen..One in Ten ..Wonderful tracks
Yeah!! There was a black singer in the band too. Wasn't his name Astro?
Yes my fav is Rat in my kitchen!!!💚❤💛💜💙
@@zella417bcarter9 Think he was playing Keys went I went to see them in the 2000s
This is from their covers album Labour of love and was done originally by Lord Creator.
This song is like my family anthem. It gets played at every family weddings, funerals, christenings and birthdays lol. 👍♥️
I love UB40 since I was a kid!
The Elvis Presley cover “can’t help myself falling in love” is also one of my favs by UB40!

Amazing how you get a preconception of what a group would be like live in concert. For ages I waited for Madness to come to town. Fun image, boring concert. A week later UB40 turn up. I wasn't sure what I would get. One of the best concerts I ever went to. Must have had 20 musicians on stage and all were pure entertainment.
UB40 does have two brothers and were really popular in the Uk had so many hits in the charts I saw them live at MK bowl they were awesome always been a fan . Great review x
Their best song? That's very debatable. They had tons of hits:
- Sing Our Own Song (the full 7 minute song)
- I'll Be Your Baby Tonight (with Robert Palmer)
- Where Did I Go Wrong
- If It Happens Again
- Rat In Mi Kitchen
- Maybe Tomorrow
- Here I Am Baby
- Come Out To Play
- I Got You Babe (with Chrissie Hynde from the Pretenders)
- Reckless (with Afrika Bambaataa)
- Homely Girl
- Many Rivers To Cross
- Cherry Oh Baby
I'll be your baby tonight was always one of my favourites.
@@potaka79 Yes, it's great. And I don't see it mentioned very often. It seems to be somewhat forgotten.
You forgot to include the song Watchdogs.
Johnny Too Bad 🔥
Never get tired of UB40 - 'King' is my personal fav, but love almost everything else they did as well
I've watched this many times, not only because I love UB40 but I love your positive vibe. All the best wishes to you mate and thanks.
As a suggestion also listen to The earth dies screaming absolutely brilliant . Congrats on the 100k, well deserved, here's to 200k by this time next year if not sooner.
@@DawnDee Always :-)
🎵 Don't forget, John Lester Nash Jr. (August 19, 1940 - October 6, 2020), known as Johnny Nash, was an American reggae and pop music singer-songwriter, best known in the United States for his 1972 hit, "I Can See Clearly Now". He was one of the first non-Jamaican singers to record reggae music in Kingston, Jamaica. 🎵
One of my favorite artists, Toots Hibberts, died very recently. He's a Jamaica singer who actually coined the word "reggae"! Check out "54-46 Was My Number" or "Sweet and Dandy". Really, you will be so happy you listened!
FUCK!!! I DIDN'T KNOW TOOT'S HAD DIED THE FIRST TIME I SAW TOOTS I WAS almost 13 YEAR'S OLD 1983 the last time was 2004 both in Aotearoa New Zealand. who hasn't covered song's by TOOT'S ? SOME OF THE BEST BAND'S EVER HAVE LET'S SEE .., THE SPECIALS ...SUBLIME...NO DOUBT... THE MIGHTY MIGHTY JOE STRUMMER AND THE CLASH .... probably 100s more But without TOOT'S ... STRANGER COLE ...ken Boothe Marcia Griffith's and the islands of Jamaica my ears would have missed out on some of the GREATEST MUSIC EVER CREATED BY THE ORIGINAL ARTISTS AND BAND'S THAT HAD GREAT TASTE IN MUSIC AND COVERED THEM .I GOT TO MEET STRANGER COLE BEFORE AND AFTER HIS SHOW IN AUCKLAND HE WAS A VERY HUMBLE MAN HE WAS AT THE DOOR GREETING EVERY ONE AND THANKING US FOR COMING TO HIS SHOW... I HAD TO TELL HIM WHAT IT MENT TO ME TO SEE HIM .... when I saw poster's for Stranger I flipped out i was so happy and excited i actually teared up went And got tickets straight away for me and my now ex wife ....I got to see RUN JOE played live by THE ORIGINAL ONE AND ONLY STRANGER COLE for me that's BUCKET LIST WHEN WE WERE LEAVING STRANGER IS AT THE DOOR THANKING HIS PEOPLE FOR COMING TO HIS SHOW I WAS IN TOTAL AWE OF THIS AMAZING HUMBLE MAN HE STOPPED ME AND MY WIFE ASKED ME TO WAIT HERE FOR A MINUTE HE CAME BACK WITH HIS SET LIST AND SIGNED IT FOR ME F#@£!!!!! THEY KNOW WE ARE ALL IN ON THIS AMAZING MUSICAL JOURNEY TOGETHER WITH OUT US THEY HAVE NOTHING AND WITHOUT THEM WE HAVE NOTHING I ALSO SAW THE SKATALITES AND THE SELECTOR AT THE SAME VENUE AND ONCE AGAIN THEY ARE AT THE DOOR GREETING EVERY ONE I GOT TO MEET PAULINE BLACK SHE SIGNED MY SHIRT AND CD I BROUGHT TO MY THEN BABY BOY ... STRUMMER CLASH PALACE AND GAVE ME A BIG HUG AND A KISS ON THE CHEEK I'll never forget those sparkling eyes and once again so humble ground hog day with the SKATALITES AT THE DOOR GREETING EVERY ONE AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME WHAT WOULD MY BELOVED PUNK ROCK BE WITHOUT SKA AND REGGAE ? AS THE PROPHET BOB MARLEY ONCE SAID ...WHY DID I WRITE PUNKY REGGAE PARTY?..…CAUSE PUNKROCK MUSIC AND REGGAE MUSIC IS REBEL MUSIC RIP UNCLE BOB RIP JOE STRUMMER RIP TOOT'S AND THE MIGHTY MIGHTY RAMONE'S AND ALL THE OTHER GREATS WHO DIDN'T MAKE IT TO THE NEXT GIG.,... WHY DID THEY HAVE TO DIE? There's NO JUSTICE !!!AXLE ROSE is still alive most of acdc Robbie Williams and there still grinding out total ASSVOMIT !!!WHY? IT'S NOT FAIR they should be in the ground and not six feet under no at least 24 feet under ground cause deep down they might not be so bad
@@heathcornbeef You have truly been blessed, my friend! So many amazing experiences..I was so sad to hear about Toots. He was performing regularly right up until his illness got the better of him. I think it was covid... Such a loving man, it kind of makes sense that he would be exposed. Some of the best music in the world, though!
@@suzannelemieux3357 Kia ora Suzanne how ya doing ?. I'll tell you what I'm getting really bored with my heroes dieing !!! It's making me feel old .,JOE STRUMMER ..DAVID BOWIE.. LUE REED..PETE SHELLEY (buzzcocks).. POLLY STYRENE (x-ray spex) CHRIS CORNELL (sound garden) BRADLEY NOWELL (sublime).

@@heathcornbeef I hear you, Heath..3 or 4 of my idols are getting up there in years and I am just dreading the day I turn on the news and they're doing a retrospective on one... David Bowie hit me hard. Ziggy Stardust was the first album I ever bought and I still haven't quite absorbed the fact that he's gone..
@@suzannelemieux3357 MY dad took me and my younger sister to see DAVID BOWIE 1983 serious moonlight tour (let's dance) the same year he took me to the sweet water's music festival 3 days of awesomeness TOOT'S AND THE MAYTALS UB40/MIDNIGHT OIL/SPLIT ENZ/THE CHURCH/DD SMASH/THE SCREAMING MEEMEES/PSYCHEDELIC FURS/Taj Mahal AND HEAPS MORE .it was my dad who introduced me to the mighty mighty RAMONES.THE CLASH.SKA AND REGGAE in the late 70s dad would hide his FIRST ADDITION RAMONE'S LP AND THE CLASH GIVE HIM ENOUGH ROPE WHEN ME AND MY SISTER WENT TO STAY WITH HIM.ID SIT DOWN LISTENING TO THE RAMONE'S AND JUST LOOK AT THESE DUDE'S IN LEATHER JACKETS AND PLAY IT OVER AND OVER DAD'S STILL GOT THAT LP AND ALL THE CLASH LPS MADNESS THE SPECIALS DEVO ALL THE CURE ALBUM'S ..NEW ORDER ..B52s IGGY POP ,...HAY DAD CHUR CHUR FOR SORTING OUT THE CRAP FOR ME AND yeah yeah I know I'm 51 dad and NO I WILL NOT CUT OFF MY MOHAWK AND THE ANSWER TO WHEN AM I GOING TO GROW UP IS......?

I'm not sure if you wanted me there with you (probably couldn't find a babysitter) and you brought the RAMONES AND THE CLASH AND THAT WAS IT FOR ME 44YEARS LATER STILL THE BEST MUSIC I'VE EVER HEARD
My favorite from UB40. Brings back memories. Thanks for choosing this song.
I love UB40 and I had a pleasure to see them in concert 2 year's ago in birmingham UK. Amazing ❤️
Always loved UB40 and was lucky enough, years ago, to walk into a club in Bridgetown and find them performing live👏👏👏👏Fab
I saw UB40 live in concert in 1994 in Aruba where I was born, they were amazing!!
Congratulations on 100K but sad cuz Eddie Van Halen passed away today 😭😭😭
Yeah I saw may he rip
I am feeling it myself as I was listening to Aerosmith "DON'T WANNA MISS A THING" AND read the news about Eddie Van Halen. sad to hear but I will remember him and all his contributions over the past 40 + years. R.I.P. EVH 10/6/2020 TWO THUMPS UP TO YOU my brother !!
They are awesome. First heard them in 81 Red Red Wine. Saw them in concert 94. A great live band. Talented musicians and underrated.
what a great tribute to a great band,back in the days they where mocked for not being a "real reggae" band
yet they covered some of the greatest artist of reggae.and the did them justice! :)
fathers of reggae is a great album.
I perform in a UB40 tribute band here in the UK called UB42. At times we are very privileged to have the actual UB40 horn section come and join us for a play. However, as with most UB40 songs, after the signing off album, this and many others after are covers that were originally produced by original artists. To be fair to them, they actually shared their royalties with those original artists in question, where as before the Jamaican record labels had ripped them off! ... Kingston Town was originally by The Lord Creator in 1970
The earth dies screaming is in my opinion the best UB40 song ever.
Love this, reminds me of my teenage years, many rivers to cross, homely girl, bring me your cup, blue eyes crying in the rain
UB40 Have so many great tracks and albums probably one of the best bands to come out of Britain at that time.
Every Jamaican I have ever met has loved this song. This should be Jamaica's national anthem. Your reaction only justifies my point. Peace to you, my friend.
My fav ub40 song this and cant help falling in love cover by them. But this original just gripped me and pulled me into this place and its quite transcending . Loved your reaction!
UB40 were school friends in Birmingham..Ali is the youngest Campbell brother. Their covers are a homage to some of their favourite songs back in '70's in the clubs n pins here in UK. I first saw them live in late 70's gigging at a Student Union Bar at Keele University. Ali and Earl Falconer, keyboard, split, Astro followed when the original group released a country album. Brian Travers, sax player usually does the talking until he has surgery for brain tumors seeing him miss their 40th Anniversay tour .
Reggae calms people down with its sound. How I would have loved to have seen Bob Marley in 1980 in Dortmund/Germany in the famous "Rockpalast". All of Europe watched at that time
My sister loves UB40. Has several records and albums.
Ali main vocals robin his brother. I’ve followed them since1979.try impossible love a great tune
You need to watch the video.all ub40s families are in it .BRILLIANT VIDEO
UB40 never gets old. Still listen to them all the time. :)
One of my fav UB40 songs. Gotta love them
They have black in the group also. When they hit the music scene. Everybody loved them . I bought all their records
Spent many a good day with the lads from UB40 and their roadies! Many happy memories ❤️🏴
Enjoy listening to this song Kingston town. The singer had a smooth sweet voice. First time hearing it, will listen to it again. Good choice for your reaction. 👍🏼💕
Hello mulatanyc really you never heard before till this video?🤔 I had always listen to this song close to 20 years ago when I first heard it on the greatest hits by ub40 👍
One of my favorite tunes! So good to see that big smile on your face that you couldn't wipe off even if you tried.
My Irish nan and grandads favourite song, they would dance together every time this song came on at family party. 💯
Ub40 I cant help falling in love with you.. is the name of the song you must react brother
I remember when we heard this first time , we didn’t care about colour or creed it was a great tune . Most of us thought the guy was Jamaican
I love this song it makes me smile so much. Thank you and Happy Tuesday! I want to wish you a big CONGRATULATIONS for hitting 100,000!
R.I.P Eddie Van Halen a legendary guitarist and performer. UB 40 rocks!
WhoooHeee! You DID it, Jovaughn!! 100,000 subscribers! So proud of you 👍🏻😊❤️
Ali Campbell was the lead singer & also his brother played guitar. They're from Birmingham, England UK. Fabulous ....................xxxx
My brother went to school with Ally Brown, we got into their concerts for free for ever even when they were at their absolute prime. They were a shining example of multi racial harmony along with other groups of the time like The Specials. They proved that "race" was not a barrier to music in the UK and was definitely not the most predominate differential, at that time class was. Other groups like Madness, who were basically skinheads (Doc Martens, short hair, braces, rolled up jeans, Crombies) also showed that "skinhead" in the UK means a very different thing to the portrayal of skinheads in the US, I was one and we were a group that didn't care what colour someone was, we just followed 2 Tone, Ska, reggae and everything in between. It was a rebellious fashion statement, not a political one.
I remember visiting the US Rhein Main Airbase in Germany when I was in the British Army in the early 90s and we genuinely could not believe that segregation (not official but it was there) still existed. We made a point of going to the "black" accommodation for a BBQ which a lot of the black guys were surprised about and following that many of the white USAF personnel would not talk to us. Funnily enough it was only the guys that blanked us, not the women.
Didn't matter as the women liked the accent so having the guys stay away was a bonus ;) I actually proposed to an American USAF female that night using the "she's lost that loving feeling" sketch from Top Gun and she accepted after 5 minutes of knowing me, we were "married" by one of my very drunk friends claiming to be a Cardinal. I should have followed that up, I seem to remember her being absolutely stunningly beautiful ;)
Would love to see you react to some reggae that was popular in the UK from around the time. Things like Sugar Minott - Good Thing Going , Janet Kay - Silly Games, Night Nurse - Gregory Isaacs, You Don't Love Me - Dawn Penn - Greetings - Half Pint. And groups like Aswad and Steel Pulse. I've a feeling you'd like them.
Try “A Message To You, Rudy” by The Specials.
Oh hell yeah .the last time i saw THE SPECIALS WHEN THE INTRO FOR GHOST TOWN STARTED EVERYONE LOOKED AT EACH OTHER AND A FEW THOUSAND SMILES BROKE OUT AT THE SAME TIME ... AND AFTER THAT COURT IN SESSION !WHAT DO YOU MEAN OI OI OI ? YOU DONE TO MUCH MUCH TO YOUNG .... AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME
i loved ub40 since i was a young kid my mother had the VHS tapes and i watched them over and over again i feel so blessed that i could watch them 2 times in concert where they where still together.
Great song!! On a somewhat related notes, you gotta check out “The Israelites” by Desmond Dekker!
Fantastic song. Anything on Trojan records is great.
Can wait for Jovaughan to hear that one
I preferred 'It miek', by DD
An early Monster of the genre
That's a belter
I love Reggae.
57 and always loved it.
Great beat and easy to listen to.
It starts your feet and fingers goingand you dance all the way.
UB40 Labour of love II was the soundtrack of my teenage years!
Groovin ( out on life ) is another UB40 chilled track 🥰
So proud of our diversity Blessings from the UK 🙏🙏
I have not heard this song in 30 years. It wasn't really one of my favorites back then, but today I'm listening to it again fresh and growing fond of it.
A fabulous group. This has lots of memories for me.
Your smile can’t get any bigger, friend! Good to share in your joy with this song! 😊😊
I absolutely love UB40, some of my favourites are Kingston Town and Impossible Love but there's just so many great ones, Crying time, Homely Girl, Getting over the storm
I never get bored of listening to UB40.
They were fantastic live. FABULOUS song choice. 😊
This song gives a smile on your face,...pure
They had a lot of great hits!! I was fortunate to see them in concert before Ali split up with them! Yes they are 2 brothers, which Ali was one of them. Ali is on his own sort of soon after some other members followed Ali.
Ali Campbell lead singer, Robin Campbell backing vocals, brothers, Ali has the blonde hair, Robin has the dark hair. Sound great together.
The first three albums and dub albums are classics, quality material. Still fresh today.
One of my favourites for 30 years, since I was 10-12.
