She loved Bob Marley. I've always loved this song. In the days after the tragedy I found myself singing this song and thinking of Kayleigh and crying. I understood Kayleigh was bringing this song to my mind and wanted my to tell her mother that every little thing was gonna be allright.

Hand and head explanation. | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Redemption song performed by Bob Marley U guyz don't get it at all...when bob says 'but my hand was made strong by the hand of the almighty'...he means the slaves were touched by the almighty through their faith n got the strength they needed to free themselves from slavery first then fight for their other rights.he couldn't say 'but head my was made strong by the hand of the almighty...' coz at the time he was witnessing the civil rights movement.it wasn't about mind,it was about hand coz men matched and fought physically for their rights.force was used against them so that should give you an idea..this guy was a genius. Very moving ... | Reviewer: Dave ------ About the song Three little birds performed by Bob Marley I was just standing outside near the river full of anxiety, pondering some things that are going on and i hear this song out in the distance. A few seconds later I see a man jogging by, must have been in his 70's and he was singing this at the top of his lungs. Anyways, it filled me with peace and almost brought me tears. I would like to thank that man jogging for he came just at the right time. thanks | Reviewer: savannah ------ About artist/band Bob Marley i am from jamaica so i know alot bout bob marley but the one thing didnt know is how much he cared about his music it is sad that he died but he knew he would. thanks bob marley for what u have given us may u rest in peace. a new day has come | Reviewer: rodolphaaud jackson ------ About the song She's gone performed by Bob Marley that a great texte that i have readed for a long long time.bob m was my mind inspiration since that i was born untill i will die (my death)that this why i leave my litle masage.most poeple think that bob marley was died but he still a live and one thing i remenber and one thing that burnind me, cause i was not there like a witness and the time the time i was neglect for my song (she is gone) now i see and i learn some `bout it and my music that i like too much (talking bleus) that fun, a song every body know where u from but nobody never ever know where r u going. Best of Bob Marley | Reviewer: kelechi osuji ------ About the song Zion train performed by Bob Marley This is one of Bob Marley's best written songs...very deep and tells a lot about his fate and destiny.It touches all aspects of man and his soul searching...good to the ears and comforting to the mind our mantra | Reviewer: Mo ------ About the song Three little birds performed by Bob Marley I have a son who is struggling (in school, in life) and this (Don’t worry about a thing, 'cause ev’ry little thing gonna be all right) has become our mantra. In the car on the way to school, I play this song and we sing...try to get inspired. Sometimes it's about taking life one day at a time and knowing God will not give you more than you can handle. Submission to Jah | Reviewer: cleophas simiyu ------ About the song Redemption song performed by Bob Marley This song by the King portrays a strong conviction that, man with all his devices and that of all about him can't beat the time.

"Sheriff John Brown always hated me, For what, I don't know: Every time I plant a seed, He said kill it before it grow - He said kill them before they grow..." man he is tellin' us to smok'it an plant it... whadabout song kaya ? the whole song was a tribute to weed.... to marijuana... he was livin from it and died from it.... but yeah he did want to send da message to whole world... Let live | Reviewer: Kofi's Seed ------ About artist/band Bob Marley Any man who judge another for their life as sinner or saint shuld take 5 steps back because they are getting ahead of themselves. Lets forget what we dnt knw fully and remember what we do know and thats simple Nesta was is will be the man me ago name my children after him. Dnt deal the bad card yall weed doesnt define the man his music lives in us all love it or hate it its nt going no place. Bob Marley/ Johnny Nash got him out of Jamacia and into the Spotlight! | Reviewer: Bob Charles ------ About artist/band Bob Marley I think this long and mostly thorough biography was well done, but did miss the very large influence and support Bob received from Johnny Nash. When Johnny went to record in Jamacia, Bob was "hired" to sweep up the recording studio because Bob just wanted to be "there" and to show Johnny his songs he wrote and his "Wailers" group. "Stir It Up"(with Bob and his group on backup) was "Huge"in England and in the "Mellow" AC Chart in America, "Guava Jelly"(even recorded by Barbra Steisand) and songs he co-wrote with Johnny, got Bob his recording contract and out of Jamacia to England, where The Rock steady/Ska sound was really hot, and the likes of Eric Clapton and others started looking to Bob's songs for them to play. Anyone who really appreciates and enjoys Bob Marley's songs and loving and peaceful influence we all still can feel and pass on, should really know Johnny Nash and his great sound too. BC marley, the world's greatest | Reviewer: johnpaul ------ About artist/band Bob Marley let's be truthful people,marley was and still is the undisputed king of reggae.no one can take dat away frm him.his contributns,legacies and charisma will always be remembered.he spoke 4 d poor,4 justice,n 4 d entire world.RESPECT 2 MARLEY. NIGERIA Remember the Legend | Reviewer: steph ------ About artist/band Bob Marley Bob Marley wasn't about smoking pot and being a stoner. Yeah sure he smoked pot but what he stood for was peace, love and music. It bothers me when people talk about Bob Marley as a stoner cause that's not what he should be known for. I don't think Bob Marley would like to be known for that either. He should be known for as someone who had a deep love for music and was full of peace and love. I mean thats what he was all about. That's why he performed at all those peace concerts. So please respect what he did and speak of him as a legend with a view of loving others and helping others..don't like him because he's a pot head, have more meaning behind why you like him, i love Bob Marley and yeah I listen to his music when I get high but I listen to his music all the time..he's my hero for the things he did and what he supported. But I loved reading this biography and learning more about Bob Marley and the Wailers, awesome job to whoever wrote it, I appreciate the time it must have taken you to write it. But again to everyone remember Bob Marley as a legend who lives on and wanted nothing more that peace and love. He looked at everyone as equal, which is something I try to do everyday, "Don't judge the life I live. I know I'm not perfect and I don't strive to be, but before you start pointing fingers, make sure your hands are clean first" ...."Love the life you live, live the life you love" Peace I love him | Reviewer: Kalegrace ------ About artist/band Bob Marley Bob Marley is a musical divinity and he will always be remembered. He changed the world with his music and still does. He is a great person for they way he was when he was here. His music speaks truth with a great beat! :) Love You Nesta!
