Facts.

This song is a speech at the United Nations by Hail Selassie the then Ruler of Ethiopia. Love this song.

Bob came to us right on time. The 60’s and 70’s were unbelievable times to be young. I was lucky enough to see Bob in concert in 1978. A spiritual experience.

What was t like for Bob Marley to play London in the early 70's?? .. Well, I grew up in England thru the 60's & 70's and I gotta tell you, Reggae, Ska, Motown Soul etc was the absolute soundtrack to that era.. Yes, Bob was mobbed everywhere he played, but mobbed with love.!!

"Three Little Brids" is my road rage song. I have an hour drive in city traffic each way to work, so that song is a regular on my playlist... It's physically impossible to be angry when you're singing that song.

thank you!!

I’ve been listening to Bob Marley since I’ve been born, over 20 years of experience with him. My favorite songs are rebel music, concrete jungle, and the heathen. Please give me songs and try some time.

The song War was an actual speech delivered by Emperor Haile Selassia of Ethiopia at the UN. He was speaking for an end to all forms of foreign and authoritarian regimes occupying various African countries. It was a powerful speech. Mr Marley just had to sing it verbatim in order not to lose its essence.

Ambush in the Night. Please react to that. It's one of Bob's songs I like the most.

Bob was the GOAT! He was a philopher, peacemaker and prophet too. Try Could you be Loved, Redemption Song, No Woman no Cry, and One Love

London loved Bob! I was there as an American, changed my life.

Hi nice reaction... also react to Peter Tosh, the bush doctor....

He's speaking specifically about Africa here. But truth is truth everywhere. The lyrics here are almost word for word from a speech to the Unlited Nations by the Emporerer if Ethiopa Haile Selassie . Short version here.

I meant my version is simple. The turmoil in Africa was pretty much ignored in North America.

@notrashtoleratedreactions The speech was given in 1963. There is a translation online. Bob was living in London in semi exile after an assassination attempt in Jamaica. I saw him there several times. A biopic of his life is set to open in February, the 14th, I think. Two trailers are available on KZread. The eldest Marley son, Ziggy, is listed as producer and was apparently on set with the actor every day. I hope it's good.

I think it was Jah Bunny who adapted and put this to music rather than Bob, might be wrong though. The Rainbow Theatre is now a Brazilian church, but can't match Bob's spirituality.

You're listening, but with all those pauses, you're not *feeling* Sit still, relax for a bit, and be present. You'll then feel the difference

Stir it up is another one of his top 10 Must listen to of the basics

So as much as I would like for you to dive in to the real deep stuff right away ,maybe we should start with some basics like no woman no cry❤😊

You should react to Bob Marley's live performance of his song "heathen" the same concert you're watching now at the rainbow theater

Also would love for you to hear his son's Damian ,Stephen ,Julian, and even his grandson's skip😂❤

Gotta do Crazy Baldheads from this concert , Also check out some of his older stuff ;) Like Soul Rebel , Caution , Do it twice.

pls do Crisis by bob marley

This whole show is so sick!! I have the show on dvd somewhere, I can't seem to find it atm, which is phenomenally disappointing. It's so frickin' sad how he died of 1 of the most common & curable of cancers, a melanoma that began under his toenail, & it's so sad that no 1 cured the man, it's absolutely bonkers. I did see the Wailers & a cpl of his sons perform @ various times, however Bob was the shit, he was far more successful than I believe he could've ever imagined.

react to Coming In From The Cold, also Bob

sick I'll add that to the list

5:49 the bass or the keyboard, it can only be either or😅

As a younger guy growing up, me and friends listened to Bob daily in the UK as we were all into smoking certain stuff. I used to have every Bob album on vinyl back then. I still have a copy of his Biography that was given to me by an ex-girlfriend 30 years ago. It should be noted also Bob was mixed race, his Dad was a white British Navy officer

Angola and Mozambique were still controlled by the colonizing Portuguese when this song was written. Thankfully, the Portuguese were kicked out. It was different in South Africa as we know, as white South Africans never left, even if they are no longer the ruling political class.

The lyrics of "War" are actually a speech that Martin Luther King once gave.

Actually…it’s taken from the 1963 Address to the United Nations by H.I.M. Emperor Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia (who btw, to the Rastafarians is the second coming of Christ..King of Kings,Lords of Lords, Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah!)

War is emperor Haile Selassie's speech to the League of Nations translated into English and made into music. Ethiopia had just come out of war against Italy to remain the only uncolonized nation in Africa. Fairness is the emperor's call.

Redemption song, No woman no cry, jamming, is this Love, all better in my view....and Could ypu be loved, buffalo soldier, lively up ypurself. War not one of his best. Oh and exodus and o f course I shot the sheriff. Marley is a rastafarian, a religion sort of Ethiopian version of Judaism but with ots of back to nature mixed in. Babylon = modernity ganja= sacrament
