I reckon this is better than the original.
Who listening in 2022 still ????? Big tune
? ??
is he still alive? Can someone tell whomever controls his publishing that Vanilla Ice sampled this song, probably without permission?
We had fun with this when it came out drum and bass killing it, got to be the Barrett brothers, black and white dance their asses off
God I love this song.
Nice one.

Thursday ngt — September 9, 2021.
A rare example of a song that's even better than the original ?
Kitchen gem ?
Bob Sanders is so correct. I was surprised that hardly anything is said about him. RIP Scotty
Massive classic ! As a bass player for obviously reasons but that sinister guitar chord lick is wicked !
big tune,originally perfomed by the spanishonians,it's a ska song!!
???
❤❤❤
???
My Fav version of this song!
Here is the Following Electric Lady Land
You'll killing chicken's in here?
The barbecue restaurant below me keeps playing this song. He must know how much I love this song; good taste for sure extends beyond his food.
Forward and payaaka, manhangle and den go saaka.
Tune munn???????????????????????????????????
It doesn't get any skunkier than this, a classic. I grew up listening to the The Harder They Come soundtrack, with my father saying it was the best reggae album ever made, and he might've been right too.
Keith & Tex
Gracia siri por hacerme saber de esta canción. ?
25 people need their heads examined, this is a gem!
Beautiful song far before my time but I grew up hearing it
This is some stuff they dropped off to turn up our vibe on earth on their way to a gig in 5D scheduled to last 13,369 days. The dopeness bar is set and going to be up there to aim for indefinitely imo.
Stop that train I want to get off...you got to love that Jamaican vibe!
