If you're "Inna Di Red" you're a pious and reverent Rastafarian. Praise Jah.

I think Inna Di Red must refer to being stoned, as he keeps singing "red eye, red eye, red eye".

I really love this song. Thank you Bill and Rebecca.
You must like it too, Bill, to put it at the end of your set.
I love the children singing at the end of the song.
Super cute!
Any more songs like this from Stephen Marley?

One question for everyone:
"Inna Di Red" refers to being stoned, right?

I really like hearing this, once in a while.

Ben Harper's influence maybe, the rest of this album didn't do much for me.

formidable!

Please end!!!

If i had this song on cd here.. it would play all day :P)

I'm not a reggae fan, but I like this. Another poster asked what made it different, and here's my take. The rhythm is completely different and doesn't overpower the words and music. Most reggae (to MY ears) has that same rhythm (dum cheche, dum cheche sort of sound) ad infinitum. This song is also repetitious, but again, the rhythm doesn't take over the rest of the song parts.

I never tire of this one...so mellow

Inna di red

It was a nine until I heard the kids singing followed by Stephen's laugh. That pushed it up to the top for me.

Chill, If you don't like a song it'll be over in a few minutes, just like the ones you like. Oh, by the way, I likeeee.

Hm. I really liked this the first hundred times I heard it. Now, not so much. I guess I've heard it too many times now and it's gotten old!

I think that Raggae-Rythm is not the dominating thing in this song. So Raggae hardliners do not like it but others (like me) do.
Really good song!

Of all the Marleys, he's the most...recent.

A solid 4.

I think you will find the cat-fest attacking anything too far outside the "alternative to classic rock" mainstream (a relative term on RP).

My personal bias is anti-country (freely admitted); however, I find many exceptions here that have broadened my musical horizons and listening pleasure. We listen to Bill and Rebecca because they have broad, eclectic taste and introduce us all to new music. You don't have to like everything, but give it a chance at least!

Gawd, I sound like my mom: "don't tell me you hate lima beans; you haven't even tried them!"
