In my teens I knew about Jimmy before Bob in my rural part of Nigeria. I loved him and his music. I still love him and his music. Cheers and many more years to the last of the legends still standing! Long live Jimmy Cliff!

My brother am just 45 yr I was introduced by my late elder sister to this man jimmy

This track brings back days long gone. JC is timeless. Hauntingly beautiful.

I was introduced to Jimmy cliff music by my late elder brother when I was 10 years,still love this

I started listening to jump cliff way back in 1973 as a kid and lived his music at the outset. Am 68 years now and my admiration. for him and his music remain intact.

I am blessed to have lived when he started and still alive. His lyrics kept me going during my hard times in Europe. I am grateful for this man's soothing lyrics. Going back to this at 73 is fantastic!!

Je suis vraiment fan de Jimmy Cliff depuis mon bas âge. Dès la classe de 6e en 1977, mon frère ainé m'avait appâté en laissant à ma portée son tourne disque et un lot de disques; il y en avait un de notre légende "The harder they come". C'est bien celui-là que j'écoutais et réécoutais tant et si bien que j'en devenais addict. Avec le temps, j'ai découvert une partie du monde infini de son trésor de chansons, toutes philosophiques et pleines d'amour et de leçons. L’extase était en 1985, je crois bien, lorsqu’il était en concert au Cameroun, au stade Ahmadou Ahidjo de Yaoundé, plein à craquer. Jimmy Cliff agrémente ainsi mes journées depuis bientôt un demi siècle. Longue vie à toi Jimmy, nous t'aimons pour la fontaine d'inspiration qui te révèle.

That's my Jimmy Cliff. This song is a masterpiece. It makes him stand out among the crowd. I love this song my brother. May you live long brother Cliff.

Makes me remember Dad... This is his favorite and house of exile.... Going back to the village from onitsha with his 504 Peugeot salon car.... Oh this life.. Rip Dad.

I’ll always give you the thumbs up KING JIMMY CLIFF!!!

I started listening to Jimmy cliff songs in 1976 ....I still listen to his songs at 60s. I named my first born son Cliff. This is how i love Jimmy Cliff

Evergreen. I was in love with all Jimmy Cliff music since I was a child staying with my elder brother and I still love them now that I am above 50 yrs.

Started listening to Jimmy as a boy and now in my sixties have not stopped, Jimmy many thanks.You are indeed the undisputed king of sweet waltz of Reggae.

This song takes me back memory lane thanks Jimmy

JC music still inspires me a lot. I have remained an ardent fan , since 1974

Jimmy is a blessing to humanity. A musical icon who's music has brought emotional relief to many in trouble times with beautiful lyrics . As a little boy many years ago I developed special likeness for Jimmy's songs even till now I am still addicted to it. I could recognise his unique voice anytime his music is being played. Jimmy is great and he is my icon.

My Jimmy Cliff. This one is super and I love it. His songs have a golden touch and everlasting.

These are music's that cannot die.i enjoyed them when I was 21 now am 71 and hv been looking to get back these music's now am happy I hv found them.youths of today hv missed the types of music we enjoyed then.today they flaunt naked women and their music is full of the flesh.no wonder these men ruled the planet.

Easily the greatest reggae and soul musician of this age..... Deep, philosophical and with a voice like no other. Jimmy Cliff spoke and sang as an artist with strong social awareness. 'Brother' like House of Exile' forever evergreen!

The best reggae music from Jamaica.

Simply the best. One of the Greatest black musician ever J C.

Song that reminds me of my childhood friend Charles Zamumimba who passed on well before his time. Loved and remembered always Charlie. (Incidentally i first listened to the music of Jimmy Cliff in your parents' home when as young as 9 years of age!)

GONNA THOSE DAYS. LEGEND MUSIC. JIMMY CLEAVE..

Does anyone understand the raw emotional outburst behind this song? The pain caused by the rejection from your own brother is worst than a hot knife stuck in your back. Once upon a time,Reggae music was not always accepted into the mainstream in the US, especially in the black owned radio stations. But the white radio stations were more receptive to it and gave it a generous air play. College radio stations also played huge roles in making reggae a household name today. So, the rejections suffered by these great reggae artists including even the great late Bob Marley, was captured in a nut shell and reflected in this song by Jimmy Cliff. Bob Marley's Coming in from the cold, also dealt with some elements of rejection. So you know, every reggae song is driven by a purpose.

I heard this record when it first was released and used to have a copy. My best friend's family is West Indian and when were teenagers in the mid 70's this was the best album ever! From this we learned of Bob Marley and all the rest!

I was passing by when this song was playing. Couldn't remember the name of the song,but I knew it was Jimmy Cliff. Then I went up on You Tube to try and find the song. When found I keep playing it and playing it. One of the best songs ever written by a man of reggae.

Be your brother's keeper.....a powerful message from Jimmy Cliff.

Jimmy Cliff - he was born for this: Music 🎼

The lyrics of this song makes me feel so emotional.

And this song makes Jimmy Cliff a very unique Reggae Artist. I started listening his Music in the very late 80's. Till to date, can't miss to listen the mind and soul soothering effect of his music. It reminds me of bitter-sweet memories as a kid growing up in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. As in his Unlimited Album cover, showed him as he was back way then : Young Gifted; Thank you once again for this masterpiece.

Listening to Jimmy Cliff always leave dumbfounded......His songs are spellbinding.....I discovered music through Jimmy Cliff and this track takes me back to 1976. to Orlu in the then Imo State of Nigeria.......Gregory and his garage was home to me then.....this is why i hide to listen to the House of Exile Album.

Thanks for the post! Nostalgic for me! All the best!

Indeed reminds me of my late brother whose favourite track it is

Très nostalique ! Tu me rappelles ma jeunesse Jimmy !

Will you patronize me - brother Do you recognize me - brother Do you believe what your teacher said Or is it the food that your preacher fed Why you minimize me - brother, Oh brother Joseph and his brothers left Canaan They saw the little brother in Egypt They both had the same cause and the same purpose They come about the same hurt that they got back the most Do you understand me my brother, Oh brother Brother! Brother! Brother! Brother! Let us help the fallen - sister She will love to call you - mister Do you see the need for unity To bring about respect and dignity Don't you understand me - my brother.

Will you patronize me - brother Do you recognize me - brother Is it the thing that your teacher said Or is it the food that your preacher fed Why you minimize me - my brother Oh brother Are you my brother now hey hey yeah oh yeah hey hey Are you my brother, my brother, my brother, my brother, my brother Are you my brother now hey hey hey hey Are you my brother, my brother, my brother, my brother, my brother So understand me now oh brother Oh brother Oh brother Are you my brother, my brother, my brother, my brother, my brother, my brother, my brother.

just listen to his deep seated wailing for his brother towards the end of the song. That's probably how Joseph cried out to his brothers after he discovered they had sold him. At 56, I still love his house of exile album in the same way I did at 11.

What a great song !!!

Played this song over 20 times today. A friend lost his only brother, and didn't get an opportunity to resolve their differences before his passing. Hence I woke up with this song on my mind, as it also took me back to my childhood. Such a deep message.

Love Love Jimmy Cliff ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

My God, Jimmy always makes me cry. What a song? Bless you.

Reggae at its best. The message is clear

I started listening to Jimmy when I was young but today I am old man

This is one tune which resurrects memories of the days of yore.

This one always take me waaay back down memory lane. I remember when we got this album back in the mid 70's from my brother who migrated to St. Martin earlier on. Maaan we were the only family who had a "GRAM" back then & we use to turn-it-up loud when our parents left home for work / errands. Then all of our peers in the neighborhood wld come over & we wld party; no matter the time of day/ night & of course when our parents heard the after effects were not pretty...Dan Pekins, u remember?
