    Bob Marley has some of the most uplifting, life affirming songs. I truly believe he was a healer. You can't go wrong with any of his songs, but I think "Redemption Song" will blow you away with its heart and soul. Great reaction!

      @@RockyMtnRebecca Vincent Ford had been a close friend of Marley's in Kingston, and well into the 1990s he was claiming authorship of the song. One theory had Marley setting Ford's words to music, another reckons that by letting his disabled friend claim the songwriting credit, Marley sidestepped various legal and contractual difficulties. Or maybe it was an act of pure philanthropy - and Bob just wanted Vincent to have the royalties. This is more than possible as Marley himself stated that it was music that was more important to him than success.

    • @jaiji

      @@RockyMtnRebecca Vincent Ford didn’t write this. No Woman No Cry was on the Natty Dread album - recorded at a time when there was a legal dispute between Marley and his publishing company. The majority of the songs on Natty Dread are credited to people other than Bob Marley in spite of the fact that he wrote them. He credited them to other people a) to ensure his old publishers didn’t get the rights to them b) to gift the people he credited as the writers some royalty payments. Bob Marley wrote all his songs - at least once he had split from the original Wailers. The Wailers (Marley, Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer) shared songwriting - although Marley completed the lion’s share.

    This reaction was in exactly the right register. Sometimes a pop song is not just a pop song. Everywhere in the world there are songs that, when played to an audience that is actively listening to them, will elicit tears. NWNC would be at the top of that list for many, many people--in Jamaica still, perhaps, but certainly far beyond its shores as well. Such was the amazing musical charisma that Marley brought to the stage, which is after all part of why he is such a legend, and why his influence stretches so far beyond any conceivable cultural boundaries.

    I was fortunate to see Bob Marley and the Wailers in the late 70's. Then in the late 80's l seen his son Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers. If you get a chance to go to a good reggae concert it's worth the trip.

    Of all the As, I think Adam is my favourite. Also I freakin love reggae.
    A Jamaican friend of mine, ten years before I knew her, said she was prepared to kill or be killed for a ticket. She got one and said her heart overflowed with pure joy.

    I often cry when I hear No Woman No Cry. One of my favorite reggae songs. Bob Marley is what brought reggae to me and within a short time I loved the genre and so many musicians. I love the Marley kids. It’s so sad Markey died before his time, and I never got to see him live.
    One day Alex will be open to reggae and he’ll fall in love with Bob Marley. In time. When one is young today, and there is so much music to discover… it takes time. When I was his age, in the ‘70s, so much music was being created. New bands were formed and then new albums by those new bands. My generation was very fortunate.

    Had a college roommate back in the 80s from Ivory Coast who turned me onto Bob Marley. Apparently Marley's a revered figure in the Third World national independence movements --Redemption Song was huge in Africa.

    You don't need to follow, or even like reggae to appreciate the beauty & groove of this piece, nor the power of it's words! This has LONG been my favourite Marley track, and he has so many. He spoke of love, peace & understanding, and he lived it! RIP Bob.

    This song is just an autobiography of my childhood- Jamaica is a hard place to grow up but cooking whole meal porridge what Jamaican or what Jamaican decent can't remember that. My favourite lines....observing the hypocrites as the mingle with the good people and my feet are my only carriage- most powerful imagery I still have to come across in modern music.

    Love to see someone be emotionally involved in a song. Music can lift, drop sometimes both simultaneously Great reaction guys, on a lighter note Andy & Adam's reggae request show has a real ring to it 😀

    Adam, there have been many times that I too have had a very strong emotional cry because of a great song. Kudos for this song reaction.

    Music is power. Properly done, music can speak to you. Music can touch your soul so deeply. Like both of you, I have cried many a tear because of music. Thank you for being so truly open to all music. Andy summed it up perfectly at the end with 'Peace' because it was what we were all about. Geez, we had Vietnam, the Cold War, hostages in Iran, people hijacking planes, snipers set up in high rise hotels... maybe that is why we needed music as we did, why it meant so much to us. We sought out music that made us feel something good. Peace to you Andy and Adam.

    This performance has to be one of the most iconic ever. From the beginning the crowd was so in tune and you can just feel the energy in that room. Insane.

    Bob Marley was a force and movement, he left this earth way too early. His music is as deep and meaningful as he was. You can feel his soul through his music, that is a rare quality ❤️🇯🇲❤️

    "Iron Lion Zion" and "Redemption Song" are my two favorite Bob Marley tunes, simply magnificent. Such an influential artist and force the world over. Hard to hate on virtually any BM tune.

    I thought I would be immune to the countless times I've jammed out Marley... but I'm sitting here sobbing like a schoolboy with the amount of pain, joy and unity in the connection of it all. Marley lived a life most indicative of an artist that really LIVED it.
    I don't think I can be a moth to such a powerful flame with any other artist even though I rarely go down his rabbit hole of material as much as I used to. I'm glad it still amazes me. ❤️

    Love me some Marley. He just puts you in that trance. His songs are so uplifting, yet can be so sad and emotional as well. You don't just "listen" to Bob Marley, you "feel" Bob Marley.

    “Marley wrote this, but gave a composer credit to Vincent "Tartar" Ford, one of his friends from Jamaica who helped him out when he was very poor and ran a soup kitchen in Kingston. By giving Ford the credit, Marley was helping out an old friend by trying to divert royalty checks his way. This was common practice on Marley's later output, as he listed friends and band members as composers, since murky contracts would have made it very hard for him to collect his own royalties (it's unclear how much money ever made it to his proxies). Ford is also listed as the songwriter of "Rastman Vibration." “
