FIRST TIME HEARING Bob Marley - Could You Be Loved REACTION

[@batmanforpresident9655]

Bob Marley is an absolute musical genius. This and "No Woman, No Cry" are his best recordings. Also, "Stir It Up", "Buffalo Soldier", "One Love", "Three Little Birds", "Get Up, Stand Up" are fantastic.

[@candyalmetrabaxter7871]

Redemption song...my all time favourite

[@american_cosmic]

Yeah, anything off "Legend" is a hit, but he had so many other deep cuts. Rastaman Vibrations, Coming in From The Cold, Africa Unite, Natty Dread, Concrete Jungle from the earlier days... so many great songs.

[@JS-TexanJeff]

@@candyalmetrabaxter7871 2nd vote for Redemption Song!

[@StevenMichals0812]

​@candyalmetrabaxter7871 There was an acoustic version, and a more rare electric version of Redemption Song.

[@lesal.1373]

And Exodus!

[@terra274]

Redemption Song is a must from Bob Marley... Buffalo Soldier is another..

[@giselamesquita5124]

Redemption song .My favourite song from him . It's absolutely perfect! 🤍

[@scottmacdonald1826]

I don't play much anymore, but I still play this one (badly, but who cares, I love it).

[@iankavanagh1385]

💯

[@Pauljennings66]

My favourite song too

[@tictocbang7443]

Spin the Bob Marley catalog like a roulette wheel and every one is a winner.

[@RobertSmith-iw2kb]

Do any of these people have opinions on the songs playing?😅

[@danielkarlsson258]

"Three little birds" is the most beautiful song ever made.

[@maryewilson2009]

"Three little birds" and "No Woman, No Cry" are my favorites!

[@KelliFranklin]

Bob Marley was the voice of many people. One of the greatest activists that ever lived. You should definitely listen to Redemption Song. I cry when I listen to that beautiful, beautiful song.

[@cynthiaschultheis1660]

"REDEMPTION SONG" just fire😎😎😎

[@juliewhite7469]

❤❤❤

[@surlechapeau]

Jay & Amber, you'll love his "Buffalo Soldier", "Jammin' " and "Get Up Stand Up"!!!! THANKS for playing this one!!! Bob's wife Rita was in a group called the I Threes who often provided backing vocals, like on this album. edit - check out his contemporaries, the band Third World!! Songs "Now That We Found Love", "One Cold Vibe (Couldn't Stop Dis Ya Boogie)" and "96º in the Shade"!!!!

[@happymethehappyone8300]

His MOST UPLIFTING song he ever wrote/recorded & A great way to start your day,, Bob Marley "Three Little Birds" ❤️ 🇯🇲 ❤️

[@terrencemorris3983]

The legendary bob marley all his songs was great fr

[@robertg7396]

My favorite Bob Marley song is "No woman, no cry." Hopefully, you'll consider it for your next reaction to him. 😁

[@mrantdagreat]

Amazing song 💯💯💯

[@johnhamilton748]

Hopefully the live video

[@tommcclary8689]

The version from Legend is the best.

[@johnkonertz8042]

But the live version !!!

[@batmanforpresident9655]

That should be the first introductory song to Bob Marley. It is one if the best recordings in history.

[@tonyrussi7777]

"Get Up, Stand Up" "Exodus" are 2 great ones.

[@martinmulcahey1618]

Bob Marley = Positivity. Why everyone loves his music and is the soundtrack for all my summertime's 😉😁

[@markstryshak539]

Watch “No Woman, No Cry” live from the Rainbow. It will take your appreciation up a couple notches. You’ve stereotyped Bob but “Redemption Song”, “Exodus”, “Buffalo Soldier”, “Get Up, Stand Up” are well known songs that will expand your horizons. A little deeper “Slave Driver”, “400 Years” definitely not just happy music.

[@CousinWhatIsIt]

Desmond Dekker & The Aces - "Israelites" This is the birth of reggae from the late 60s. So worth it!!

[@chrismeloy1149]

I remember listening to that on 45 when I was a little kid.

[@scottblack5549]

wake up every morning baked beans for breakfast so that every mouth can be fed oh, oh me ears are alight

[@happymethehappyone8300]

100% Agreed & I suggested the very same..Been listening to it since it's release,, Another favorite classic by him is Desmond Dekker & The Aces "Fu Manchu"

[@CousinWhatIsIt]

@@happymethehappyone8300 My favorite has changed over time. Most recent was "Sabotage".

[@sjbict]

@@chrismeloy1149 I bought it.

[@futurereflections4097]

Bob Marley one of those in the category of making songs that are so classic that you you almost can’t imagine the world without them once you’ve heard them

[@adamparr6464]

Redemption Song is a must with Bob Marley. “No Woman, No Cry”, “Three Little Birds”, “Coming In From The Cold”, And from the really early stuff “Simmer Down”.

[@TurkeyVol]

1:21 Jay, that instrument is a keyboard called a Clavinet, made famous by Stevie Wonder on "Superstition". Bob Marley is always good, but there is so MuCH more to the reggae and earlier ska genre to discover. I recommend "Pressure Drop", "54-46 (Was My Number)" by Toots & the Maytals, "You Can Get It If You Really Want" by Jimmy Cliff, and "007 (Shanty Town)" and "Israelites" by Desmond Dekker & the Aces.

[@jonnajois]

Love "Shanty town" - such a happy bouncy reagge - and "Isrealite"

[@wepete68]

yes 54-46

[@richiereverb]

Love that Clavinet sound . Even before Superstition 1972 , 'The Band' used it on 'Up On Cripple Creek' 1969 . There are probably others but Stevie knocked it out of the park !

[@aldohernandez3509]

For some reason this song reminds me the beach,a cold beer on my hand and everything else don't matter, Bob Marley was a genius!!!!!

[@Lilly8Listens]

Waiting In Vain is the one. 😄

[@thomasmcginnis2782]

I used to think reggae was all about Bob Marley...He is great, but there are so many other great artists that came before and after him. Explore and enjoy.

[@NeptuneLady1957]

Isn't it!?❤️

[@mandyffrench8998]

Absolutely!

[@lisac8088]

This your first time guys? 😮. Wow!!! I’m an islander from Hawaii.. Jah is a way of life.. you found it!! Bravo!! Thank you!

[@Frankincensedjb123]

You can never go wrong with Bob "the Legend" Marley.

[@bernicearthur8655]

Bob Marley's Buffalo Soldiers was the song that soothed my infant on those all nighters, when she was teething.

[@donnasmith3520]

"Get Up, Stand Up" is excellent.

[@rjjcms1]

Stand up for your rights!

[@bjdefilippo447]

Excellent choice! Bob Marley always brings a good mood, even with the sad songs/history, because you can feel the hope in it.

[@ChristChickAutistic]

I love Bob so much I used to sing Three Little Birds and One Love to my kids as lullabies when they were babies.

[@rx7dude2006]

Love all his music, just puts you in such a great mood.

[@Torrey33327]

🤩

[@juliewhite7469]

Three Little Birds 🐦 ❤😊

[@hervehightower2364]

i wish so much had got to meet him and went one of his concert bob marley to me the true king of reggage music you are very missed .

[@marcisikoff]

This one hits differently because Bob knew he was dying when he wrote and sang this one.

[@impudentdomain]

It's just a good day when you get to listen to Bob Marley

[@scottvanhille5688]

Bob is a legend, there's a biopic film about him out as well. Spreading love, peace, and harmony is what he's all about.,

[@happymethehappyone8300]

A MUST HEAR reggae/ska classic,, Desmond Dekker & The Aces "Israelites"...Nuff Said. 🔥❤️🔥

[@mapleleafmackem7202]

Great song forever corrupted by the Maxell tape advert kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZ2nZ31vhNKegKs

[@stevetreloar3129]

"Exodus" is a reggae banger!

[@bm6563]

Agreed!. Of all Bob Marley songs, it has to be Exodus for the next sample! Mind-blowing song which turned him from an up and coming superstar into a fully fledged international one.

[@Torrey33327]

My late friend Leah and I listened to Marley often✨✌️🥰

[@drewcliff82]

Truly one of the greatest musicians of our time. You should do "Redemption song" next.

[@TheRetroManRandySavage]

My favourite Bob Marley song.🙌

[@messiahmoose]

Live Bob Marley is one of the greatest joys on this Earth.

[@frankticasdroppinknowledge2363]

"Rat Race", "Them Belly Full (But We Hungry), "Concrete Jungle", "Waiting In Vain" are all must listens. You can't go wrong with anything he did. I would also like to recommend Fela Kuti. Great reaction!

[@rbtz07]

Judging from the other comments, I can tell you're a true Marley fan like myself. We didn't just listen to the "Legend" album. I love your picks.

[@michellesymes6917]

"Redemption song" and "War " are two of my favorite songs of Bob Marley.

[@MichelleDonnan-gt4yy]

Used to have Bob on all day at work!!!🙏RIP🙏

[@jayecee010]

Some reggae suggestions: Third World- “Now that we’ve found Love” (sort of disco & reggae), “Sense of Purpose”; also a group from England called Aswad- “Behold” , “ Don’t Turn Around “. Finally, “I Just wanna be close to you” by Maxi Priest ( from England)

[@happymethehappyone8300]

I've seen Third World & Steel Pulse several times,, Great shows & music.

[@jayecee010]

Roots reggae, like Bob Marley, had a resurgence in England, so that influence produced groups like Steel Pulse who were the first non-Jamaican act to win a Grammy awards. Check them out.

[@juliewhite7469]

❤😊❤

[@ragjamrock]

The lead guitar heard throughout the song uses a technique called deadpicking where the palm of your picking hand rests on the strings while they are being plucked, creating a muted sound. It's a key element of reggae lead guitar, which sometimes also follows the bassline. There are many other great reggae bands and singers, Bob Marley drew his inspiration from many of them. 🏝🇯🇲🎶🎸

[@petercena9497]

Marley's album "Legend" will eventually pass Dark Side of the Moon for most weeks on the album chart.

[@alanmusicman3385]

For me - this is Bob's best hit single - I've never heard anything I liked better of his. "Jammin" is pretty good, but I love this one best.

[@otisroseboro5613]

R.I.P To A Great Singer Songwriter Bob Marley, Still Miss You Always 😢

[@mkmstillstackin]

Bob Marley, the man, the legend! Love this song. You can't go wrong with any of his iconic classics, but "No Woman, No Cry" is probably my all-time favorite.

[@Frances86]

My favorite song of his is “satisfy my soul” I think it’s highly underrated!!!

[@TheLeoswar]

Always love the energy keep up the good vibes

[@BuddyBoy68]

Hi, you two! It's Andrew Erroch fae Paisley in Scotland here. Thank you so much for reacting to my favourite Bob Marley song. I absolutely love this and I love Bob Marley. He has so many brilliant songs to choose from, and any of those suggested would be great. I would like to hear 'Buffalo Soldier', as that was probably my first experience of his, around the time my Dad surprisingly bought me his album called 'Confrontation' with that song on it. Oh, have you done 'One Love' yet?... You would definitely love that. One Love to both of you! Æx 🙏

[@kurtl3011]

“Road of life is rocky, and you may stumble too. So while you point your finger, someone else is judging you.” What a great lyric that we should all keep in mind. Marley is legend!

Seeing you guys bop to Bob is how i've been since i was around 4 years old. My Legend is Bob

Marley: "No Woman No Cry"

[@GratefulZen]

Let’s not forget it’s Bob Marley…and the Wailers, the rest of the band that helped him create this great body of music! My vote is for “ No Woman, No Cry” and “ Redemption Song.” BTW, Manfred Mann’s Earth Band do a nice version of “Redemption Song.” Thanks, guys!

[@donnacarter2617]

How could you not love Bob, that first note you hear your body just starts to move without thinking of it. Most of his songs are this....wonder how much more he could have gone.... RIP Bob

[@SugahShy]

One Love, Three Little Birds, Jammin' and Redemption Songs, if you haven't already heard them, are some good ones.

His father would pass away when he was only 2 years old,, Damian Marley "Stand A Chance"...Bob would be so proud. 🙏❤️ As Damian gets older,, the more he looks/sounds just like his father..He would also be given his nickname after his father's,, Bob's being "Tuff Gong" & Damian's being "Junior Gong".

[@dilandilanjoao4310]

Hi there. " No woman no cry " live, it's Bob Marley top of the mountain song. Another super soul who died too young, before reaching the top of his creativity. (Like Hendrix and others). Mick jagger was very responsible on Bob Marley's early success, and also on Jimmy Cliff, and others

[@Vegmuffin]

I’m so pissed I’m just now learning about this wonderful legend and his amazing family 😢 until a couple of months ago ! So beautiful! I may be late .. I’ll forever be a fan !!

[@stevelambert6404]

Buffalo soldier was my introduction to Bob Marley, always will be the first song I think of

[@jasonrankin1152]

I love that young people are hearing his music more these days. He was a great artist and you cant go wrong with just about any of his songs

[@misterdoe]

"That" is called a clavinet, a specially tuned electric piano that was popular with funk musicians in the early 70s. In the right hands (Stevie Wonder, Billy Preston, the Wailers' keyboardist) it sounds like a musical weapon. Even Led Zeppelin used it! For a different take on reggae, play the song "Love Ain't Fair," by Atlantic Starr. Recorded in the NYC suburbs by a band whose founders came from North Carolina. Or, an instrumental version of "Could You Be Loved" by Jamaican piano master Monty Alexander. And there's lots of great angry reggae out there too...

[@hayesboy2481]

I would advise to try 'Exodus' and 'Get Up Stand up (For Your Rights)'. Marley's music was a movement.

[@paulpeacock1181]

Island vibes: more reggae but don’t forget calypso with some Harry Belafonte with Jamaica Farewell, or The Banna Boat Song

[@browntabproductions]

There’s a difference between Reggae inspired, like The Police, and Reggae. Highly recommend “Stepping Razor” by Peter Tosh a former OG Wailer w/Bob Marley for more VERY GOOD Reggae. The Jimmy Cliff song “Reggae Music” is a musical Biography of Jimmy from his beginning. Roots! Rock! Reggae!

[@henrykosky3919]

Ya I know you're right !! Tosh babylon by bus

[@surlechapeau]

Love Jimmy's "The Harder They Come" !

[@browntabproductions]

Great movie@@surlechapeau May I suggest Jimmy Cliff’s 2012 Grammy Winning album “Rebirth”. He redoes The Clashes “Guns of Brixton”, which of course mentions him as “Ivan” in “The Harder They Come”. His backing band is “The Engine Room” and it’s Produced by “Tim Armstrong” of “Rancid”. A Superb Recording.

[@mattpotter8725]

The Police aren't reggae even if they borrowed some aspects of the music, which was hard to not be influenced by for anyone in the UK in the 70s when The Police were coming of age.
