Sometimes when I listen to this song I get emotionally flashed back to EXACTLY how I felt at age 14 when I first heard of sublime and also happened to first try smoking weed. It's crazy how music can trigger such vivid memories!

+feartheglosshh dude.. I get that exact same feel..SUCH an intense emotion, vividness like you said, of the feeling back then. I also am remembering a time when I was 14, though along with the bud was excessive DXM use at that time in my life..Such a weird (and euphoric and nostalgic) flashback of feelings. The exact neurons firing off in my brain at the time, my mind mentally masturbating to the creative funk known as sublime, at the time an unknown band to me. Specifically this song brings back the memories most of discovering sublime and basking in all their glory, all high and innocent and young and unknowing. gah I miss it. I love sublime though, couldnt have discovered anything greater.

This is why I love Sublime! The more I dig into the original versions of these songs the more I realize what a bad ass Bradley was....

Man it's been a while. When I remanence about the 90's in high school, I think about Smashing Pumpkins, Phish, STP, Poe, Mazzy Star, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Rage, Triple 6....you know there's so many more! Totally missed Sublime.

quite possibly the best song from the album.

Such a great cover! Always brings me back to good memories!!

Sublime is the reason for my love of bass guitar. Good riffs.

5446 is amazing. This is the way to do a cover, make it in your own style. RIP Brad🙏🙏

My love of reggae grew as I got older and I grew up listening to sublime but as I got older and listened to various reggae artists I was like “so wow that’s who sublime was referencing” listening to toots and others like barrington, toots and billy boyo

as much as i love edm and house, sublime will always be my favorite band. ive been listening to them since i was born, truly the best music in my mind. RIP Brad

Every song they did was so full...RIP so much talent incredible. So many memories of being 13 and driving to the surf

How weird it is to think back and realize that the years when Sublime was my favorite band at the time were following years when Nirvana was my favorite at the time prior. What a drastic change. I still love both very much, bit I must day, I remember my "Sublime era" as undoubtedly happier times. Not blaming either band, as I feel they reflected my inner feelings much of which was to do with my life & circumstances at the time. As well as teenage angst a bit I imagine. Lol

Anyone that hasn't heard the Toots and the Maytals original of this song, get off your ass and listen to that absolute reggae masterpiece. What are you doin' already?!? Go listen!

I don't have, no time To listen to conflicting points of view Oh it's a crazy world to live alone A ball and chain I call my own People listen up don't stand to close I've got something that you all should know Holy matrimony is not for me Rather die alone in misery I was always taught that boy meets girl Fall in love, get married and forget the world Nine months later, the sweet baby's on the way Isn't that what they used to say? With a girl that you knew, And the bonds that we grew Turned into a ball and chain I step into the great unknown On a ball and chain I call my own Crazy world to live alone With a girl And the bonds that we grew Turned into a ball and chain Oh, I step into the great unknown With a ball and chain I call my own Because marriage doesn't work in the world today It's an institution that is in decay And if I have love I wish to portray I will surely find another way Because I was always taught that boy meets girl Fall in love, get married and forget the world Nine months later the sweet baby's on the way Kiss 'em on the cheek and life's okay I don't feel no pain, I don't have no time To listen to conflicting points of view I step into the great unknown On a ball and chain I call my own
