LOVE this song. I always will. Ziggy doesn't even have to try to sound good. He just does naturally. I miss the Melody Makers! The sound they had when they were together was PERFECTION! I love the Marley family. BEAUTIFUL music.

This song came out the year I was born; in 1989. I remember hearing it the first, when I around 5 or 6 years old. 35 years later, its still relevant. Big up Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers ( Sharon, Cedella, Stephen)

I will never stop listening to this song, until the day I die, one of the most powerful song that ever made to uplift black people, I sit down sometimes watching my community and I just blast this song and start dancing with my self. As I grab me a guiness stout. Thank you ziggy for such powerful song.

I was not old enough to go and see Bob Marley when he toured with The Grateful Dead back in the late 1970's......I regret that practically every day because Reggae music and especially Bob's message (and he was guided by the Holy Spirit or other Angelic entity I absolutely know) was and still is my inspiration in life. My existence has largely been a disappointment in many ways after suffering 2 life changing near death experiences that wiped out my hard work and sweat put into my blossoming construction company, Through Bob Marley, I have found a much more important direction for my life. I am now completely dedicated to how i can be used as a tool in some meaningful way to further Bob's agenda of ridding this world of racial intolerance, Hatred, prejudices and evil to the best of my ability. Every day, every moment I understand that my walk thru life, I too am accompanied by the unseen forces that be. I never again have to be disappointed in myself of regret where i am in life. The most high is beside me and taking me places.....That is the force that has me proclaiming this to you now. Put yourself in gods capable hands. He'll take you where your supposed to go.

very spiritiual ,can you hear and feel Robert Marley resonating from within him , The first time I heard it I thought is was Bob and now I still do ,I was looking through all Of Bob music and lyrics tring to find this song since 2000 when I first saw Ashra kwesi lecture he opened with this song it was very appropiate for that awesome lecture .

I hear it and see Bob in Ziggy. Bob has many children out of wedlock.....Big Deal.I know Bob loved Rita Marley and I'm sure she was accepting of his sleeping with other women. Bob has a child with a knock out "Miss World" pageant winner! Bob Marley's father was a white man , a captain of a ship ....so that really by law makes Bob White....."you are what your father was"

This song was originally written and performed by the Dallol Reggae Band formed by young Ethiopian brothers who immigrated to the US to launch their music career. They initially performed traditional Ethiopian music but later begun to be drawn to the love of reggae music. Members of the band, Zeleke Gessesse (lead vocalist) and Mulugeta Gessesse (rhythm guitarist) originally wrote the song in Amharic (an official working language of Ethiopia). The song was later translated into English and performed by Ziggy Marley, which later became the opening track in his Grammy winning album 'One Bright Day' released in 1989. In Black My Story, the band can be heard backing Ziggy in Amharic chants: 'tarik bahlachin' (our history, our culture), 'awo awo' (yes, yes), 'yetibeboch mekidim' (the pioneers of civilisations), 'ayzoh ayzoh' (carry on/stay strong), 'andinet behibret' (unity in collaboration), 'awo awo' (yes, yes), 'netsanet kibrachin' (our freedom, our dignity), 'ayzoh ayzoh' (carry on/stay strong). What led to this collaboration was the invitation the band received in 1982 from Rita Marley to perform in Jamaica (Kingston) at the first concert organised to celebrate the birthday of Bob Marley, a year after his passing away. Their performance impressed the audience and the Marley family. The band later performed and toured numerous times with Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers during the 80s and 90s. Dallol band was the official band for Ziggy Marley from 1988 to 1991. Together, they recorded best selling albums, 'Conscious Party' and 'One Bright Day'. Addis Gessesse who managed the Dallol Band also later became the music manager of Ziggy Marley and most of the Marley brothers and including Rita Marley for many years. The strong professional and personal connections that the Dallol band and its members had with the Marley family played a crucial role in the development of Ziggy Marley's and his brothers' music career. This special partnership made it possible to organise the celebration Bob Marley's 60th birthday in Addis Ababa with a theme of 'Africa Unite' concert. 💚💛❤ #OneLove

The truth can't be hidden always, as it is being revealed everyday to the children of the Most High God. Rastafari! Ever living, ever faithful, ever sure....Selassie I the first!!!! Jah, Rastafari!!!
