[regisand1]

OK

[Doctors4tan]

ali is a true left handed genius!

[Pat2Panik11]

Original to John clarke !!!

[LThunders]

It's a silly observation but I've noticed that both Campbell brothers are left handed and it's a rare case... Mark and David Knopfler also are left handed, but they play right handed guitars.

[gripper021164]

@LThunders I'm also left handed but I play my guitar right handed?...dont think I could ever play a left hander. Parents bought me a right hand guuitar when I was eight and had lessons till I was 16 so I think i'll always play right handed......Top song tho' me thinks!

[NotSoLiberal]

One of the most creative bands

[Namikagekun]

Man, everyone always associates weed and reggae, but they only ever mention Bob Marley. Where's all the love for UB40? Their songs may not be about weed or anything like that but I think it would be awesome and they deserve some more fame.

[TheDarwiniser]

@Namikagekun

yeah i think to consider that a particular drug is representative of a music style is a little ignorant.

one singer doesnt own a music style.

nor does his drug of choice.

a little presumptuous frankly.

[TheDarwiniser]

@Namikagekun

Its like claiming anything from Scotland is all about whiskey.

Or anything to do with the blues is all about bourbon.

[Namikagekun]

@TheDarwiniser Indeed.

[SPANCHEZ1]

Thanks

[freakyeva1]

[thiesjaarsma]

Love this song, loved it then and i still do, anno 2011.

[gris20040223]

COMO ME GUSTA ME FACINA!!!!!

[sunnyFLb]

Love how they look like they enjoy being pitched about in their studio 'box'--- those UB40 boys looked like they were on a ride at a fun fair! ps....UB40--even with difficult changes, making excellent music for over 30 years!!!

[good2goism]

Any AMERICANS ever heard of UB40?

I'm in the US frm JA.

Only the UK and WI know about UB40. Crying shame, really. BTW, I'm not 13 yet.

[tonyteeth2011]

@good2goism its not just uk/wi they are the biggest reggae band in the world checkout the billboard chart history and see how many hollywood films their music has been in

[mantooth3245]

god yes what a song and band!!!

[analogpower]

1997, Sint Maarten, West-Indies : I've been a walker-on in this movie (Speed2) actually only to see UB40 'in real' wich never happened,

they were not on the boat !

(Sandra Bullock was but she wasn't my cup of tea!)

I'm still sea-sick off that experience !

Never again Hollywood !

[andresaimar2010]

i loved this songgggg....

[MissSexii98]

OMG I get it! The song was made for a film with a loada boats in it, and singing this, they are on a ship! DUH! Sorry, i'm so blonde!

[aadbind64]

love this song

[thiesjaarsma]

One of UB 40's best songs! Love this one, thanks for posting dude!

[trombonelu]

One of the best bands in the world this song is of divine inspiration i am a musician and i am bewildered by the way that they combine things that are totally opposite like major and minor tonalities at the same time we rarely get such a musical treat these days everything is getting so mediocre !!! LUV UB40

[staceyeminem]

I LOVE UB40!

[crucialconflict02]

been looking for this song forever!!!! :-D :-D :-D

[Vesanorabonah]

bello bello bello.... ma Bette, sarda/o sei?

[andrewglover6]

This is my favourite UB40 song! Pity about the movie that it was on. I would love to be on a cruise ship with them playing on it though :-]

[SB0780]

This song was written for the movie 'Speed 2: Cruise Control'; they sing it in the film.

[jva1975]

UB40 for live peace................

[xusl]

TEMAZO.

[adysaxman77]

Ive got UB40 tattooed on my bicep, in a saxophone design. It was done in about 1982. Class tune from a great L.P!

[penelopana]

[voxdiaboli]

[CHONDRO1SWISS]

Tenderly she smiles Forgiving my mistakes Getting her to love me Was my biggest break Every place I go, she's inside of me Giving up her love unconditionally She shines the sun She pours the rain She touches me in places that I can't explain She's got a powerful hold on me The kind of hold from which I'd never struggle free

[Hoeppe]

im high right now....great song dudes

[laconsolacion888]

Great Choice Bette!! Is this a great song or what?

[M3Produccions]
