Ok my all time favorite is this one..and I have mamorized it word by word:

Until the philosophy which hold one race
Superior and another inferior
Is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned
Everywhere is war, me say war

That until there are no longer first class
And second class citizens of any nation
Until the colour of a man's skin
Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes
Me say war

That until the basic human rights are equally
Guaranteed to all, without regard to race
Dis a war

That until that day
The dream of lasting peace, world citizenship
Rule of international morality
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion
To be persued, but never attained
Now everywhere is war, war

And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes
that hold our brothers in Angola, in Mozambique,
South Africa sub-human bondage
Have been toppled, utterly destroyed
Well, everywhere is war, me say war

War in the east, war in the west
War up north, war down south
War, war, rumours of war

And until that day, the African continent
Will not know peace, we Africans will fight
We find it necessary and we know we shall win
As we are confident in the victory

Of good over evil, good over evil, good over evil
Good over evil, good over evil, good over evil[/quote]



Great song indeed.
Did you know that this was a Speech of Haile Selassie of Ethiopia!

Thats technically 'dancehall' isnt it? Or are we just stating any music from W.Indies/Jamaica?

I like most stuff from black uhuru, just because of their name (black freedom). I really dont listen to much reggea music anymore as they tend to praise sallasie....the biggest a-hole to have ever lived. The Marley fam are ok.

My fave song is by chaka demus and plier (i think thats how u spell it) and I think the song is called Murder She Wrote. That may also be dancehall though.

I don't know. I lump all incoherent West Indies/Carribean English as Reggae.
