[BDeniseBooth]

The noise coming out of my car with this playing full blast, me and my Boy, aged 12 singing at the top of our voices must have been interesting.

[stalkingwolf1954]

As a white kid growing up in Miami,in the 60s, i was really turned on all caribean music, i watched it evolve and grow , love to this DAY!!

[sladest72]

Also I'd like to point out that I've loved this song since I was 4yrs old(39 now)!

[intheekeyofcrime]

has a reggae vibe.



[SecsSells]

@intheekeyofcrime LOL no kidding! Really?

[explicit646]

Recently discovered this song and oh, how I love it...

[jimjonespt2]

@explicit646 i like it too. love you always

[PyaraSaBandhan]

tottally awsum

[MreViewer]

Top tune - 1968 - I was there!

[blakbeltjonez]

i am pretty sure this song is from 1968, not 1965..... Johnny Nash and Arthur Jenkins went down to Jamaica in '68 and did a bunch of stuff there over the next few years.

a nice hybrid of rocksteady/early reggae and pop music.

[blakbeltjonez]

@blakbeltjonez

whoops, i mean Danny Sims

[simon4186]

Reggae rocks!

[caspiax61]

Yes, this was the ONLY international rocksteady hit. Rocksteady is a wonderful music from 1966-68, then it was replaced by reggae. But rocksteady is still popular. Listen to zoe - rock steady . Rocksteady rock so...

[leeleebaby2100]

I don't understand why this man wasn't a superstar. I know I loved him, and he's still around, but where's the fandom?

[SkollDoza]

As far as I remember this was rocksteady, the precursor to reggae music. And the first international hit of the genre. It's even in that fucking long ass description! :)) babababababapapapaa

[lolasmith37]

i thank this was everyone favorite song of his in our school days,like very much.

[gemdavey]

Wow great song from the year I was born. I dig this ole school reggae!

[badboybaldy1]

this song makes me sad & happy i'm always listening to this beautiful song for the last 35 years now and the video is so sweet ! miss him so much beautiful man ..

bless out to all ...

[djgambitron]

gotta like that upbeat & bouncy "desmond dekker" ska sound

[anitashelby]

Such a Absolutely Great Song & Vid!!!..Love It!!...5*s Thankyou Joe..:)

[vespa202]

Wonderful :))

[bze2nlz1]

My mom met him on a plane around '73 and got me his autograph...I almost forgot that he sang this, too. Good song :)

[chkjns]

@bze2nlz1 - small world isn't it! This is the smoothest reggae sound I've ever heard, it transcends genres. My channel has 500 playlists of music like this.

This is the 90th song on my 1965 playlist. My channel will let you step back into 1965 for 4 1/2 hours of nonstop music & every year since 1900 is playlisted.

The backup instrumentals are incredible here! Thanks to TheBacmaster for another super video!

[LousFool]
