  • there is no chance Jimmy Cliff's version is better..its brutal compared to this

  • There's every chance Jimmy's version is better; he wrote it. Remember, "In the Beginning..." Nothing beats the original.

  • Thank you for posting Ubvideos. I love this version and it reminds me of the brother I lost in Iraq. I sign along to this song as tears flow from my eyes. Many rivers man...we all go through hard times. Thank you UB40 for giving me my brother.

  • ALI!!! ur my hero!!! beautiful vocals!!!

  • good tune

  • one of the best covers I have seen

  • I love this version. Some may disagree but I think this version out shines the original. UB40'S lead singer was born to sing this song. Thank u for posting this brilliant song. Peace.

  • Have you listen to the original???its beyond SOULFUL...UB40 kinda add a touch of RnB to their version...But HELL no they still did not out shine Jimmy!!!!

  • Yeah, Jimmy Cliffs version is pretty tight but this version is just too good to say, "yeah, UB40 did a nice job." I still think UB40's version kicks ass. Peace.

  • Im with you there.. this is Ali's song.. it was in his destiny to sing this the way he does..!!!!

  • Superb...made my day!
