He probably wrote and performed this song before he became a Rastaman. And he did to gently poke fun at Rita's food preferences. You know, not everything he did was a reference to ganja or Rastafarianism.
Lol I bought a milkshake today and then i started thinking of this song. So now like 5 hours later I am at home listening to this song...Lol I kept thinking "u gonna get fat girrrl if u dont stop" LOL! Im already fat tho
yesyes the girl don't stop eating potato chips and drinking milkshake everywhere in the restaurant at the movie hahahaha at the graduation she brings milkshake and potato chips hahahaha
Yes, he did. But it was not due to his diet. He re-injured his toe while playing soccer in 1977, it became so infected that doctors suggested amputation. Marley refused, the toe never healed, became cancerous and the cancer spread to his brain, resulting in his death in 1981. :o(
@AstaVega nah, the injury did not cause the cancer...he thought that the dark streak was caused by a soccer injury but it wasn't. The cancer was already there with no relation to any soccer injury. It was under the nail bed. The rest of what you say is true.
Rasta doesn't eat animal skin or animal fat. No part of the animal, milk contains animal fat.
If Rasta wants milk, Rasta cracks a coconut!
Sugar only in it's purest form i.e. form fruit, "organic" food is not always Ital food.
When Halie Selassie I visit Jamaica in '66, Rita saw stigmata on JAH hands as he waved, she told Bob and they together follow Jah from then to foriver.
a little of subject lol, but the only meat he ate when he became rasta was fish (if you consider fish as animals). only right b4 he passed he ate beef (which he was against eating) as doctors orders to boost his protein when he had cancer.....which i think the doctors should not have done (idiots) since fish or any other natural source of protein would have been better....especially since his body wasn't used to eating beef.
I agree akamizzT, that his doctors were "idiots" lol. And yes, some Rasta do eat fish and even poultry (but not the skin).
My 'misplaced' statement was actually in reply to Alliance72.
Sadly, Bob was reported to have done many things he would not have normally done in those last days. His brain was consumed with cancer, at that point, and if the stories are true, its only because he didn't know what he was agreeing to.
for everyone talking about rastas and milkshake drinking.... is anyone paying attention to the lyrics? he's referring to a girl that likes milkshake and potato chips......
Never heard this song, very good tune. Anyway, is it appropriate for a rasta to drink/eat something with sugar? Just asking, I don't mean anything bad.
Oh, thanks for the answer. But I still don't get it what's wrong with natural milk. Not the one you buy from shops (as those cows are fed with steroids), but from the countryside.
@HaliB75 - you forget the most important milk: HEMP MILK!!!!!!! Especially for Rastas lol... It blows soy, rice, almond and dairy milk out of the wind in the nutritional aspect, as well as taste!!!! Look it up! So sad where we live in a time/age where hemp products are so scarse...
@Alliance72 Of course Rastas eat sugar lots of it. There's no prohibition against sugar in our dogma, Biblically. We even consume honey and that's made from insects!!!
@freedomfighter106 the song isn't necessarily a relationship song about Bob and Rita. Can't a songwriter compose a song that you folks don't find biographical?!!! It mentions graduation, when they met Rita was long outta school!!!! I don't know how you point this to Rita when Bob was a man with lots o' girl friends as the typical Rock star.
@freedomfighter106 Stop saying what you know nothing about!! It's best you people stop spreading these useless talk about Marley's lyrics. Not because he wrote these things, makes it subject to his lifestyle. Can't you come to realize that if the words fit it's a song; and shouldn't be taken as personal statement?!!! He's got that right you know, it's called creative license. For those who don't know the song obviously was written as a pop song; and should be acknowledged as such!
