I'm sorry to pop your silly-ass, hip-wannabe bubble - that's a lie, actually I'm not at all sorry - but what Marley stood for was smoking ganga and making money. His act and lyrics were shaped by dweebs like you that have no savvy, even less musical taste and are instantly entranced by any pseudo-spiritualistic, groovy peace-love&Bobby Sherman hokum that rolls down the road. I was generous to give him a 2. You don't need to justify your opinions with a load of meaningless, vitriolic declarations. Your opinions do not constitute fact - just your viewpoint. Get over yourself. [ Reply ]

You are free to choose your own. That is, unless you still suffer under the chains of mental slavery and are unable to define it for yourself. [ Reply ]

You smell bad... everybody in my hotel room thinks you should bathe... we love this song... and the word is spelled "sublimely"... Brother bought a coconut; he bought it for a dime. His sister had another one; she paid it for sublime. She put sublime in the coconut; she drank them both up. She put sublime in the coconut; she drank them both up. She put sublime in the coconut; she drank them both up... [ Reply ]

Uh, well, forgive me if I am not 100% up to snuff on the finer parts of the movement, but from what little I know about it, Rastafarians worship one Haile Selassie I, the late monarch, emperor, and high priest of Ethiopia. Once again, forgive me if this is a controversial statement, but I can worship no human being, and I find the notion repugnant. I am unaware, and sublimley uninterested, in what Mr. Marley deems "mental slavery". I have thought long and hard about such things, and I find the notion of worshiping even a god, and going to heaven, the equivalent of desiring some celestial North Korea, where one is damned to all eternity to bow and supplicate oneself before an all-knowing, domineering, Kim Jong Il type of tyrant, from which there is no escape. Thanks, but, no thanks. [ Reply ]
