[@claude9777]

Today is a sad day. RIP Winston "Explainer" Henry! We will be forever grateful for the sunshine you brought to our lives.

[@wilstonchristian1451]

The Great Explainer is gone but the world will forever have Lorraine

[@Renegadeproject]

One of the tunes that elicit the true sentiment of a Trinidadian living in the cold countries.

[@misskaya9593]

This song hits differently in February in New York. RIP

[@RickstarPromotions]

This is why I love Trinidad & Tobago so much , you can't find music like this anywere else in the world ....I'm a trini at birth and i'll forever remain a trini ...

[@clariesampson7368]

[@carltonstewart3125]

This song evokes so many memories from back home in Trinidad and Tobago. And. It is also fitting to being here in the cold in Canada.

[@stephenspark776]

This is, and always will be, my No 1 fave soca track. I could cry when I hear this - and I'm an English guy from Surrey! But it puts the best kind of shivers up my spine. Perfect composition, and so happy to have heard Explainer sing it live at the ABC London Calypso Tent a few years back.

[@socawarrior2104]

Still loving this i 2022 RIP Bro

[@BraidsL1122]

I was so sorry to hear of Explainer's passing. May he rest in peace. Because I live in Brooklyn and partied at many Caribbean clubs at that time, so many people thought the song was about me. No, unfortunately, I never got to meet Explainer.

[@Soflydragonfly1974]

I've loved this song from when it came it out in the 80s. My dad's friend saw me singing and whining to this song and all he could do was shake his head. I love how he tells his woman stop crying he's leavin...he cyan miss de jammin' I wish I could tell someone the same thing,,,cuz I'm freezin here in Toronto...Need a soca jam.

[@asiba2]

The days when songs were 7 minutes--three or four verses, three or four choruses , similar amount of band choruses, an intro and outro and choruses repeated several times at the end---MUSIC !!!!!!!-----SWEET !!!!!----LOVING IT !!!! in 2013

[@tashajones6115]

I'm so happy that this song has brought smiles to so many of your faces! After hearing it years ago as a child I knew I had to find it and share it. I hope you all get as much pleasure from this song as I do. I'd love to do a documentary on Explainer one day.

This song just came to me so clear in my dream just now. All I heard was I cyah miss dis jammin.. woke up and searched the lyrics and boom, Thank you for posting a Classic! 💯

[@CindyAsson]

Rip friends..family

[@nigelgopeesingh3596]

Execptional lyrics and melody. Truely legendary. R.I.P. I always admired his talent and content.

[@impactfoto]

Wow, what a shocker to find this! Going back almost 40 years now, an old friend of mine went and spent part of the Summer in Antigua, staying with his brother. He heard this song a few times on the radio, never quite sure which island it was being broadcast from. Couldn't find it in any of the record stores down there either. One time he managed to catch the last couple of verses on tape (who else remembers recording songs off the radio?!? lol) and the DJ even mentioned the song title and artist at the end. That time it was just a guy's name, so I'm guessing it wasn't the same artist. I also seem to remember it not sounding as 'tinny', but it's been so long I could well not be remembering it accurately anymore. Anyway, I remember my friend playing it over and over, along with some other music he'd picked up while down there. Of all the long lost songs I've managed to look up online in recent years, this one may well be the last and biggest mystery!

[@DJTrinivibes4U]

This is sweet sweet soca!!!! When I hear this is Trini tabanka in meh tail. I going home yes!!

[@Theone-zg8qz]

I was trying to get the info on this song for two weeks now.. I finally learnt who the artist is 😍😍😍 R.I.P. sad news

[@crem0801]

I spent many a cold winter evening listening to this song and longing to be on a beautiful beach in the Carribean.

[@EmmelineBT]

Reminds me of my dad who played this every Sunday without fail. He is now back in the Caribbean where he is home. Although I do miss him very much. Thanks for posting :-)

[@mitchy524]

Love this song with all my heart! My favorite...takes me back to my N.Y.C. childhood...my sister had the DJ dedicate a song to me at her reception and when this came on I almost lost it..all my Trini family crowded the dance floor. Memories...
