One of the greatest songs I've ever heard without a doubt. That guitar solo is absolutely incredible.

[viniciusrezende]

any Bob song gives me goosebumps

[zackzallie]

His best work ever! Catch a Fire is the best reggae album of all time!

[adhominemsis-t.australisensis]

My favourite Wailers song, from my favourite Wailers album. Exquisite, hypnotic music.

[boxertest]

This song is linked to great memories with me and my friends.

Bob was one of those exceptional artists who could take the experience of hopeless poverty, cry pain into it,
turning it into art in which we can see a reflection of our own humanity.

[PirateStyle]

I rocked this album everyday in da 90's. Da Joint For Sure!

[michaelbeauchamp]

My favourite Bob Marley Album of all time. Love it ❤️

[dominicblanchard]

The struggle is real...one of the tracks that features the Wailers as a unit of musical force..dynamic background vocals..Bob sings those lyrics with a passion..literally crying out "the living is hardest "...

Insurmountable Lee Perry's solo guitar

No chains around my feet but I'm not free. I know I am bound here in captivity.

"Concrete Jungle"

No sun will shine in my day today (no sun will shine)
The high yellow moon won't come out to play (that high yellow moon won't come out to play)
I said (darkness) darkness (has come and covered my light) has covered my light,
(And has changed)
And has changed (my day into night) my day into night, yeah.
Where is the love to be found? (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Won't someone tell me 'cause
Life (sweet life) must be (got to be) somewhere to be found (out there somewhere out there for me)
Instead of concrete jungle (Jungle, jungle, jungle!),
I said where the living is hardest (concrete jungle!).
Concrete jungle (jungle, jungle, jungle)
Man, you got to do your best (concrete jungle!)
Wo-ooh

No chains around my feet
But I'm not free
I know I am bounded in captivity; oh now
(Never known) Never known (what happiness is) what happiness is;
(Never known) I've never known (what sweet caress is) what sweet caress is yeah
Still, I'll be always laughing like a clown; (oooh-oooh-oooh)
Oh someone help me 'cause I (sweet life) -
I've got to pick myself from off the ground (got to be, out there somewhere out there for me)
In this ya concrete jungle (Jungle, jungle, jungle!):
I said, what do you got for me (concrete jungle!) now?
Concrete jungle (jungle, jungle, jungle!), why won't you let me be (concrete jungle!) now?
Ohhh yeah

[Guitar solo]

I said that life (sweet life) must be (got to be) somewhere to be found (out there somewhere for me)
Oh, instead: concrete jungle (jungle!) - collusion (concrete jungle!) -
Confusion (confusion). Eh!

Concrete jungle (jungle!): we've made it, We've got it.
In Concrete jungle (concrete jungle!), now. Eh!
Concrete jungle (jungle, jungle, jungle!).

What, what do you got for me (jungle, jungle!) now? [fadeout]

The first album I ever bought was Bob Narkey abs the Wailers live, after I met a girl from Amsterdanlm, I must have been 14, she had everything red, yellow and green, even her socks and bikini😅
Anyway, when I got home from vacation in France, I tried to get as much of his music, back then it were mostly tapes, but I did came across his album and saved up my allowance and bought it, even had my mother knit a rasta sweater, I wore it all year, till I found Prince and he became my idol. I always kept listening to him, but not much else till my much later boyfriend, who knew all sorts of reagea, not the commercial shit they played here and never gravitated to. I listen to all kinds of music now, but back then you couldn't love Prince and Michael Jackson St the same time, the teenage years.🎉
