@nhkronikles420 - IMO Bob Marley is much more inspirational than this suburban kid who tries to sing like he's Jamaican. But if this inspires you, I guess you could do a lot worse with today's pop music.
Don't matter where ur born... if u can bring inspirational lyrics with true meaning in this world today u gotta show respect. Peace to Bob and keep goin Matis
everyhing that rastas say he's sayin de same ting except 4 dem iss Ethiopia and for him its Jerusalem their saying the same thing but 2 different places
and the right hand, that's a reference to Psalm 137, where David makes an oath; to forget Jerusalem is to lose your right hand, your ability to speak , interestingly this Psalm opens with 'By the Rivers of Babylon' so maybe a slight bob reference there Matis
thank you for educating some people but im sue ya just wrote short hand and you and I know its the right hand loses direction again no insult actially thanking you
zion is a hill, Har Tsion just outside the walls of the old city Jerusalem, King David is buried there, and not to be confused with Har Moriah, or the Temple Mount
Matisyahu is a hasidic Jew and in the beliefs of the Jews/Hebrew people, Zion refers to Jerusalem and Israel, especially in the era of the coming "promised land." At least I think.
i like all versions of this song, this is so classic ! his voice rocks - he can beatbox, sing jew corals perfectly and reggae. you gotta love this guy
