looking for the original version of lorraine by pluto shervington anybody has this song if you u do can u please share it on youtube. would love that very much
MONA PREP SCHOOL PERFORMED THIS SONG IN THE JCDC COMPETITION AND RECEIVED A NATIONAL AWARD.THE SINGING AND CHOREOGRAPHY WERE EXCELLENT,AND TO SEE THE CHILDREN PERFORM THIS SONG WITH SUCH A MESSAGE AT TIMES SENT CHILLS...WELL DONE MONA PREP......THEY WERE CLASSIC IN JAMAICAN COLOURS!!
true also of those of us who lived in Jamaica, but were not necessarily true-born Jamaicans.... it was a really big tune at a tough time when things just seemed to be going downhill. it was perceived at the time to be a liiiiittle bit too cuddly towards the PNP/Manley government, but it has endured the test of time and is still relatively popular, regardless of political affiliation.
ironically, Pluto and many, many others wound up leaving JA the year after this song....
@ajustso I think most people left ja for better opportunities- If there were more opportunities some of them would have surely stayed. Well some of them would still migrate because some of them are foreign minded.
wicked tunes, from Belize to Jamaica to the entire world! I've met some wonderful Jamaicans, Trinidadians, Bayesian in Florida we had a wonderful time. But I Man Born Ya!! Don B
i remember this tune it was such a great time! does any one know the name of the tune or the performer that sang a response to this one about Jamaicans who are on ya but no born ya...??
Thank you...Thank you...Thank you. I have been searching for this song for months. My father used to play this all the time when I was a little girl in New York. You would be surprised how many Jamaicans have not heard of this song. Thank you once again and much love:)
Very interesting. I know of an Impalas 45 on this label which is an amazing doowop/soul ballad. I believe this label is from Long Island, NY. I wonder if Pluto was a New Yorker or Steady bought the tapes from a producer.
Pluto was definitely Jamaican, his releases were on Wild Flower in Jamaica, part of the Federal Studios empire which had a US deal with Steady for Federal/Wild Flower/Playback/etc. labels.
lots of Federal hits were put out in the US by Steady.
Love this song brings back sweet memories! Where is Pluto now? Ihn back-a-yard?

Nothing wrong with Jamaica. Those politricksters on the other hand need to be tried for crimes against the people and deported.
