This song is such an underrated masterpiece, not only because it sounds great but because it delivers a great message. This song reminds us that no matter how lonely we feel or how sad we feel, we will always be loved. This song always makes me feel very emotional but in the end it makes me feel very happy and grateful! Thank you T.O.K. for such an amazing nostalgic song!!
I remember when this tune first released and a LOT of DJs were afraid to play it. It wasn't jiggy or 'sellawf' at all. It didn't make the girls wanna get half naked and invite man to the dance with hardcore wine. But when the real DJs stepped up and reminded us all of the core of reggae music, they soon followed suit because the people got to hear and appreciate a truly brilliant and heart felt song from TOK that everyone conscious fell in love with. Peace and love to all true conscious reggae listeners out there. Your heart don't sell out, it can't, it won't. That's because you care and have love for the world and its children. That is a real blessing right there. 2017 a come.
Banton Radio this isn’t quite the same but... a music channel over here in England called Channel U played this all the time back in the day... loved it since I was a teen
I grew up on this song, but at a point in time I forgot the name. The only thing that kept it in my memory was the chorus. 'When you cry, I cry'. And today, I finally found it back. Thank god for that.
This song hits different now that I'm in the military and at the end of my career. I didn't even think I'd be joining when this song came out. Emotions bro. One of the best groups to do it.
I was 7 years old on a road trip hearing this song. While listening to it my father was in tears letting me know my childhood friend (who was my neighbor) passed away drowning. 18 years later and that moment feels like it was yesterday.
I remember when I first heard this song when I was 5, I wasn't able to resist crying. My heart melted, I never felt so much sympathy. I still feel sympathy till this day.
That makes alot of sense. I thought the soldier was a weird fit. "Hurry up and come back" and "the day his life was taken" You dont hear of many soldiers who die the same day they leave lol
To all those of you.. that have lost their Mums, Be strong and take heart on this blessed day! Everyday is a Journey... a step closer to your loved one.. But don't Rush to be with them just yet.. You still have a purpose on this earth!! Become the person they wanted you to be.. They are gone but never forgotten in ur hearts.. So preserve.. Challenges are all part of your life's journey.. And when your time is up.. as God will decide not you.. you will be reunited again with your lost soul. Making u complete once more.. In Heaven.. Happy Mothers Day.. To the Lost Mums.. Your spirit is still living within us. Till the day we meet again.. AMEN❤
2021 the year started so bad for millions. But for my children and I we can truly say thank your Lord for another year. RIP MUM almost a year since you've pass still till this day it feels unreal. RIP DADDY six years you've went to rest and I can truly say you was the best dad there is.
I dont normally listen to this type of music am more of an heavy metal and rock fan but this song reminds my gran never seen her since 1997 then found out she died in 2008 miss u gran wish I got the chance to see u one last time 😥😥
This song will never be old or played out to me because it's really a true story and what people 😢are experiencing now and will always be going on in dis world forever ❤😂😂😮😢
Y'all jamaican reggae singers need to keep it going and keep it real. Nuff with the past...keep it going. You know ya hear...Buju welcome back..missed you
My High School influence, *TOK* I won my high talent show in grade 11 2006 with this song. Brings back alot of memories and the dreams I wish I pursued and didnt give up on
Classic song of reality showcasing that life is so unpredictable and whenever our children goes out on any engagement we must always pray for them and make sure they going out with the right company and places and we as adults must not take anything for granted whenever we go to work and return we must give the creator all the praise and we must begin now to love each other and be our brothers and sisters keepers let throw away our differences and live in love and unity and make this world a better place to live
Last time i heard this i was like 7 and now im 14 I remember my mom used to always play it and i randomly just started singing it... surprise i remembered enough to even find it
Randomly remembered the lyrics, you cry I cry along with you. So, I googled them and this song came up and I instantly remembered all the lyrics. I turn 32 today. It's 2022 and the last time I heard this song was 17 ish years ago. Beautiful song.
I have been looking for the song since2009 but thanks God I got it today Sunday 28,February 2021 glory to God Amen.The song reminds me of my two sons death Martin Ngari five years and Antony Ndiritu 26 years lest in peace Amen
This track hits different man. The beat, the lyrics. Didn't even need to be relatable, but it made you empathize and feel the emotion and pain in this track.
This was my favourite song circa 2005/6. I'd forgotten about it and rediscovered it now in 2019. Gave me goosebumps like the first time. Thank you TOK!
When i first heard this song august 2005 i would hold my lil boy while pregnant with my daughter nd would hold him tight cuz he was almost taken nd not knowing my daughter would be born 10/21/05 and pass on 10/31/05 this ended up being her song after she passed ...smh 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Thank You T.O.K.
Cry, cry, cry
One set of footprints in ah di sand
And yuh ah grumble and ah so you think it should ah be two
'Member one thing mi youth a Father God have the plan
So when you see one set of footprints ah God ah carry you
"Hurry up and come back"
Was the last thing she said to her son
The day his life was taken
She didn't know he wouldn't come back
He died from the bullet of a gun
And now her little boy is gone
She said "Help me, Lord help me"
And she looked up to the sky
And she heard a voice reply
When you cry, I cry
I cry along with you
When you smile, I smile
I smile along with you
When you cry, I cry
I cry along with you
When you smile, I smile
I smile along with you
Another baby left homeless
Abandoned when he was two
So the street side kids at the shopping mall was the family he knew
It's not easy being homeless
Sometimes you have to do, what you have to do
And he didn't have a mom or dad to help him get through
He said "Help me, Father help me"
And he looked up to the sky
And he heard a voice reply
When you cry, I cry
I cry along with you
When you smile, I smile
I smile along with you
When you cry, I cry (Based on a true story)
I cry along with you
When you smile, I smile (Keep yuh head up)
I smile along with you
It was early Sunday morning, me get up ah watch the news
Den me hear say last night a sea view dem kill ah youth
Den, mamma tell me say her church sister Jacqueline
Just lose her brother over sea view garden
When she tell me, jah jah know it, mash me up, nuh tell me lie
But yuh know say man a thuggist so yuh nuh go see me cry
Everyday and everynight she still ah ask the father why
Her brother had to die
She heard ah voice reply
When you cry, I cry
I cry along with you
When you smile, I smile
I smile along with you
When you cry, I cry
I cry along with you
When you smile, I smile
I smile along with you
When you cry, I cry
I cry along with you
When you smile, I smile
I smile along with you
When you cry, I cry
I cry along with you
When you smile, I smile
I smile along with you
Thanks you 🙏🏾
Much respect and BLESSINGS to you. Thank you.
You are the real mvp ❤

I never heard any of their other songs
This is a classic a special time in my childhood this song is embedded in my brain. These boys are legends!
this song would make me cry so much every time my dad would play it. came back to this song over 10+ years later and i still get the same feeling.
I wish reggae was heard on the radio more, I love reggae muse.
Yes
They should have a reggae radio station
In jersey every Sunday they play reggae all day long on hot 97.1
2020 and this song still resonates with me😞👌🏾
👌🏾
I was 7 years old on a road trip hearing this song. While listening to it my father was in tears letting me know my childhood friend (who was my neighbor) passed away drowning. 18 years later and that moment feels like it was yesterday.
This song is so true never gets old who ever reading this don't give up on life god is sending his Angels to help you .
I remember when I first heard this song when I was 5, I wasn't able to resist crying. My heart melted, I never felt so much sympathy. I still feel sympathy till this day.
man, i remember this song from so many years ago, i just randomly remembered it and so glad i've found it again.
wats the difference between this song an when u cry
+Nicholas Sanowar this clip got a soldier. the other one was a youngin that got shot close to his home. I guess this version was made for usa
Same here!!!!!!!!
That makes alot of sense. I thought the soldier was a weird fit. "Hurry up and come back" and "the day his life was taken"
You dont hear of many soldiers who die the same day they leave lol
samee hereee
This song is a healing for me.❤️
To all those of you.. that have lost their Mums,
Be strong and take heart on this blessed day!
Everyday is a Journey... a step closer to your loved one..

They are gone but never forgotten in ur hearts..
So preserve..
Challenges are all part of your life's journey..
And when your time is up.. as God will decide not you.. you will be reunited again with your lost soul. Making u complete once more..
In Heaven..
Happy Mothers Day..
To the Lost Mums..
Your spirit is still living within us.
Till the day we meet again..
