Heard this for the first time in 2004 on the plane sadly leaving Jamaica. They played it over and over all the way home and I listened to it each time. Came to the states and could not find it. Here I am 20 yrs later grinning from ear to ear.

In the early '80s, my best friend and I were young adults in a rock band playing Zeppelin, Bowie, Beatles, etc. Total long-haired hippy rock guys. We decide to take a brief vacation in The Bahamas. One night, we walk into a nightclub and the dance floor is filled with locals, dancing to this song. We were like: WTF is going on here?!?!? Totally blown away by reggae. Immediately went to the record store and bought this extended play, vinyl single. The bummer is that - once I returned home to The States - I dropped it and the record broke. Thanks aaqilian for posting!

For such a small Island Jamaican influence is universal.

I used to love this song. But know I have diabetes. But Jesus is the great physician.

Yo the dude at my job plays this tune all day long. It is now stuck in my head. I am glad I found it. Respect from Canada.

I remember hearing this back in '80 or hooked on Dancehall Reggae!

great example of lyrics and flow making a song great. this track has been used by so many artists but this one tends to stand out because of the beautifully worded and paced lyrics. brilliant flow.
