Days goes into evening, yeah ya
Night fades away
I see a bright sunshine in every morning
Lord then a shower of rain
Give thanks and praise, give thanks and praise
I see Jah glory in the morning sun
I see Jah glory when the day is done
A little bit of it can be sweet
when you ain't got plenty
Don't drown yourself now
Don't drown yourself now
In too much honey
You wake up early every morning
Worrying about your earthly possessions
Don't make it hold ya
Don't make it hold ya
In these obsessions
I see Jah glory in the morning sun
I see Jah glory when the day is done
I see Jah glory in the morning sun
I see Jah glory when the day is done
| jt1 | Posted: Apr 22, 2013 - 14:35 A solid 7 on first listen for me. Once again RP introduces me to music I've missed. Nice to not see the usual silly complaints about anything religeous in a song's lyrics for once. |

Any band which calls themselves Third World is riding that marketing wave bigtime. But I'm sure it sells big in Denmark. That's pretty ignorant. Third World have been going for a long old time. I remember listening to them back in the 80s. There's nothing "pseudo ethnic" about them. PC "morons" might or might not buy their stuff as a fashion statement, but that's not the band's fault. They're the real deal. I don't go a bundle on them myself because of their heavy-duty religion, same as I don't like Songs of Praise, but I'd never criticise their authenticity. |

Are you dissing an entire genre? Or is that a type-oh and you meant "Reggae is the shit"? By the way 'ttttttttttttt' makes no sense other than you got a shitty keyboard. As for a suggestion, look up Burning Spear, you might like. |

Yeah, no marketing here. What a riot. I love this cover. Marketing? Maybe... I doubt it... but who cares? What a hoot. Lighten up dudes... it aint that serious. Denmark? Lived there for three years. Don't get it.. but again who cares? Lite it up dudes. |

| infinity | Posted: Oct 11, 2007 - 12:26 bluedot wrote: geez.
why do reggae songs get such low ratings on rp? For the same reason other music gets low ratings. People don't like it and/or feel like they're hearing too much of it. Not everyone has the same musical tastes. For me, occasional reggae is okay, but I feel that it's generally overplayed on RP compared to other "world music" (aka non-American) genres. I don't hear much Samba, Beijing Opera, monks chanting, etc. So why the heavy reggae rotation? |
