WHATS YOUR FAV. BOB MARLEY SONG?

[G. Sensi]

Looks like Im going against the masses here but I dont really like Redemption Song much.

Really????!!! Man... I picked up the Guitar just to learn that song

I shot the Sheriff is actually one of my least favourites... Not sure why...

As I said its much easier and much less typing to answer what songs I DONT like from Bob...

I like the fact that Will Smith's Character named his Daughter Marley and introduced Bob to that girl in I am Legend!

Oh wow they have that scene on Youtube! http://youtube.com/watch?v=XTLXh_K5tZc

Fine he was a big deal but I dont understand why theres a Graceland and not a "Wailerville" or something for Bob.... Hmmm... possible New business venture for me.....?

Endin with the quote of the day: "Listen to Bob Marley"

Grand theft auto 4 has a radio station called 'tuff gong' that plays nothing but bob marley!

 

[KnottyDollar]

You can go see the house that got shot up just outside Kingston.

Yeah, Im not sure why but Ive just never felt that song.

Pretty much the only one I dont like, that and jammin' - I think thats more because of the commercialization.

 

[pseudostelariae]

a lot of great songs have been named..
aside from them i enjoy African Herbsman

 

[GET MO]

lively up yourself

rub a dub style

rat race

get up stand up

Bob is the man, I believe he was prophet as much as Gandi, Muhammad or Jesus was.

 

[NOKUY]

could you be loved

 

[~fvk~]

Easy. Sun is Shining.

 

[steppinRazor]

like a few above sed, African herbsman, 400 years, Mr Brown, Really into his oldschool

 

[ARTofMAKINGfire]

Agreed steppinrazor. Nothing like what you mentioned. I honestly want to be sick when I hear "One Love". It's a great song but so overplayed.

My favorite Bob song (right now) - "Johnny Was"

"Women hold her head and cry. Cause her son was shot down in the street and died."

 

[sodaman]

Sun is Shining is classic. Then again, most Marley songs are.

 

[Snagglepuss]

johnny was ...my fav also ..affects me the most..

 

[StRa]

1.Jungle fever...........rare song
2.them belly full
3.want more
4.war
5.punky reggae party

 

[Ipsissimus]

stripped down "mellow mood"

Trenchtown Rock from "Live!"

Very end of "Revolution", gives me chills

Lastly, and most importantly, the most essential, best live recording ever made in my opinion. Before Tosh left, at their peak imo. Soundboard.

Boring answer, but 'No Woman No Cry'. Followed by 'I Shot the Sheriff', then 'Redemption Song'.

I would have to say redemption song, but of course he has lots of great songs
