[@fatfreddysdrop]

Check out the 2023 Remix here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4rEiYuPoct_hrc

[@matthewwillmann7952]

Yes the remix is amazing, but where has the original album gone. Please tell me it’s coming back to streaming? It’s music for my soul. Pleeeeeease.

[@firebirdthegoat]

Coming back 10 years later, and it still sounds good

[@NotUnymous]

Same. What a banger

[@timluyten8660]

That sax solo at 6:45 is amazing. Fucking hypnotizing

[@darrellkruyer7045]

It's the best fade in I've waver heared!!!!So powerful and cathartic..just insane all the way from that point.. New dimensions in rhythm.. Impossible not to love

[@Jordan-bm2ry]

I was just about to make a comment about that, first time I heard that sax solo I cried tears of joy because this song is so good.

My absolute favorite part of the song

[@1st_edition]

Then when the synth drops in background I guess goosebumps everytime

[@kierdog10]

I was throwing some boxes away at a recycling center and someone left 3 CDs for the taking. Fat Freddy's was one of them. I was like...I'll give it a shot...free, right? This song came on and I was blown away...Awesome mix of ska, reggae, jazz and dub. Genius, and blows away the same stale garbage out there. The album found me. Score!!!

[@heymaria123]

kierdog10 awesome that happened to me once

[@SlyerPass]

MIx of ska, reggae, jazz, dub, triphop, soul and funk, my dear.

[@ravenlclawglader7661]

Nice! You were very lucky then :D

[@sophia1304]

Who in their right mind throws out FFD cds?! Lucky for you

[@kirkmannaerts3998]

I remember losing a ffd cd at a store

[@lyndonforster7873]

This was one of the first pieces of music I ever played to my little girl when she was only a few weeks old. She's 5 now and we just spent the most amazing moment together dancing round the kitchen to this track again playing djembe. Love it! ❤️❤️

[@CinographFilm]

Where there was one before Now there are many And as the days go by I see them multiply I can't eat I can't sleep Because I know they'll be watching me Descending on the breeze Their shadows keep falling down on me There's a blackbird In my garden Oh! There's a blackbird In my garden Oh! Where there was one before Now there are many What are they’re waiting for? Food I have not any I can't eat I can't sleep Because I know they'll be watching me With yellow eyes that see right through I don’t know what I’m supposed to do All these blackbirds In my garden Oh! Blackbird In my garden Oh!
