[@wcampollo1]

Hawaii 1989-1995 played it like it was number one every day. Waikiki every car was playing that or Bobby brown with full base, had no noise laws back then. If you didn’t get enough on Saturday nights at Waikiki, then go to ala moana beach on Sundays and here it again in thousands of cars. Great days!

I was too young to understand the lyrics of their songs but all I knew was how good their music made me feel and now decades later I understand and I still feel the same. Loved their music.

[@paulgardner9763]

A master class by Aswad, love it xx

[@jonnuanez7183]

By FAR the superior version. Shame this wasn't as successful as the cover.

[@sexyhomeowner9345]

What cover? This is originally a Tina Turner song.

[@LspLc]

I think they're referring to the cover released a few years later by the Swedish band Ace of Base. Ace of Base had a pop hit with "Don't Turn Around" in the mid 90s. However, I do prefer Aswad's version also.

[@LspLc]

I agree with you. I enjoy Aswad's recording of this song more than Ace of Base's.

[@akugizibwe]

There is something about Reggae Versions of songs that always hits differently. This one here and Morgan Heritage's "The girl is mine" are two of them gems that I play when I wanna chill.

Love this song. Didn't know Aswad was the first to cut this Diane Warren-penned composition. Was first introduced to it via Ace of Base in 1994. Discovered this version courtesy of a compilation CD that my mama owns called Pure Reggae.

[@jameskennedy552]

Tina Turner was the first actually. My favorite version is the Ace Of Base version that I didn’t know was a cover till today since it’s so good! His is a decent version as well
