Michelle Obama is a corrupted, soulless murderer? Go figure. Who knew?

I mean, I know she wants to make your kids eat less Twinkies, but really - that seems a bit harsh . . .

Sweet tune, though - Bob is indeed legendary . . . and that's a hilarious little animation!

i take my teenage sons bike trailing on the alafia river...bout a 90 min ride...we always make it a reggae ride..always..just puts us in the right frame..we listen to marley almost exclusively...cause most other reggae just can't come close.        (ummmm...we don't smoke but for those of u who do we don't actually ride the bikes "on" the river....just felt like i needed to clarify that)

I was never going to convert you - it would be like someone making me listen to Germanic Opera. . . by giving me lots of styles of Germanic Opera to listen to. . . and wanting to convert me over. And that will never happen! However, it might open my ears to some of the subtle variations and perhaps I might not take the piss so much.

However, I am delighted you listened and commented. It was my pleasure to provide. Peace.

This is yet another wonderful aspect of Radio Paradise: engaging, intelligent, experienced people who are passionate about life and music willing to engage and discuss. Thanks, Poacher, you're a gent.

Entertaining responses, but still in the dark. Five reggae songs, significantly different from each other in style. Read the original post. I'm willing to learn.

See? It is easy to name loads of styles derived from reggae. I'd add some exponents of the style but I don't think you would be interested. All I would say is don't knock a music style unless you know what you are talking about.
 

Sorry, but i cannot see the problem you people have!? this is nice music, no?!

Ummmm, couldn't you also say that about the output of JS Bach? I mean the lack of significant difference between one number and the next? I always thought that excellent musicians / composers just reworked their theme to produce more beautiful music.

then you have never listened to it LOUD or through a sound system..
although its great as background music, you have to learn to FEEL the
rhythm....its all about the BASS and the drums.
to say that all reggae is the same is as ignorant as saying all soul music or country
music sounds the same..its just comes from a lack of familiarity with the genre.
