Brian bumba Payne : They want to know (LIVE)

[@sirdale7201]

One of the best calypsos ever written by a great calypsonian

[@hotarobin1]

One of the marks of a great song and performance is when you can listen to it 30 years later and still feel the excitement of the night and era. That night absolutely no one could pry that victory from Brian Bumba Payne! This goes down as one of the top three songs/performances in pic o de crop history for me.

[@malcolmboyce2364]

What are the other three?

[@arlitastrose2198]

Mr.Brian Bumba Payne sang this for me yesterday whilst my son looked on that's why I'm here....awesomeness

[@jasonharbin5454]

One of the best social commentaries of all time. I remember this night. Song still gives me chills.

[@PompetusDad]

Great kaiso❤️, one of the best ever, along with the masters Sparrow and Chalkie, but his dancing is fantastic and unchallenged. Big up the badass kaiso man Bumba ❤️

[@jasonchandler246]

Brilliant song and it still speaks volumes today, When i see my country in this state...."THEY WANT TO KNOW!!" lord help barbados. .

[@tripodthreefoot2268]

I watched a documentary about crimes in Jamaica and the American journalist asked the Don where they got all this rude boy behaviour from and he simply replied Hollywood and the American portrayal of what life should be. Sadly Barbados today is becoming a victim of that very fact

[@ss81bja]

Boss Song....this is what social commentary is and should be....

[@randalbanfield6722]

One of favorite Bajan songs of all time. Powerful Song Bumba boy!

[@rusticization]

This is one of the ultimate classics by Bumba.

[@seeitasitis-v7d]

Sweetest melody ever in calypso

[@patience9516]

Listening in 2022..lyrics still relevant

[@Rayal1979]

Thanks for uploading this Bumba. You are a legend!

[@tripodthreefoot2268]

The back vocals, love them, beautiful song, top of the chart.

[@BaywaterTours]

Timeless classic!

[@bajjan6211]

This is a great inspirational Caiso.

[@TerryBubbler]

Bless up Bumba, my old entertainment comrade!

[@darenburke4611]

The winning song!

[@janikaglasgow426]

So in love with the powerful lyrics and performance he was really into it would of really like to see that performance LIVE

[@kirkseale2198]

RADIO STATIONS BAND THIS KIND OF MUSIC 'I WANT TO KNOW' LOL

[@tripodthreefoot2268]

Yea, I was saying the same, it appears no one playing music like this anymore, not even the recent Crop Over Festival allowed social commentary as a top choice for the crowd

[@28keyz]

Arrangement correct

[@neilcrichlow6627]

It's the minors in this song man...too sweet. He knew every accent and intonation. What a talented man.

[@jasonchandler246]

This is exactly what is happening here in BIM today. The young ones are so lost and WANT TO KNOW!!!!

[@bajanbear]

What year was this 86, 87 or 88?

[@malcolmboyce2364]

What has become of bumba
