Egyptian Reggae

[nowy408]

Swietne reggae!

[lurholm]

Dag Vag! <3 Early live recording, and despite the title not really a reggae song. These guys do know how to play reggae though. And both guitarists are actually ace, even though it may not sound like it on this one. Love it though. Jonathan Richman's version is equally good but in a totally different way.

[sleepsurfsex]

I want surfing on a pyramid

[Colonia11Jokerz]

wild western in egypt

[ZLUGGO]

T o m bättre än originalversionen med Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers.

[mediahater]

wow. just wow.

[GobeletDub]

It sounds like "Johnny Clarke - None Shall escape the judgement "

[herrarnemossa]

@GobeletDub  Yeah, the riff originally came from that song.

[tifffkhan]

13 people are Justin Beiber's Fan.

[mrdogman666777]

great groove but not a strong lead guitarist! =-P

[weseyedwalk]

@mrdogman666777 I think that makes the guitar even cooler for this song, it fits. If you had a technical solo or perfect solo, it would take away from the feel of the song. It's raw this way.

[herrarnemossa]

@mrdogman666777

There are actually two lead guitarist take one round each.

[ordermyfootsteps]

thank you

[tristanvh2]

wow, this is even more catchy than the original! very very good cover, could listen to this all day long!

[GerardoZang]

where is the reggae?

[robotkop3000]

we had to play this song for music lesson. Got a B+ :)

[Mrgalacticone]

This version sounds more Egyptain Reggae. I don't know why the hell, the word "Egyptain Reggae" even popped into my head. I never knew it existed until right now. The word popped into my head, I decided to search it, and this how I got here.The trippy thing is,I wasn't thinking reggae, and I wasn't thinking about egypt.Someone please tell me; What does it all mean?

[Dartwith]

@Mrgalacticone maybe youre psychic 

[Mrgalacticone]

@Dartwith Let me try my psychic abilities. I will now tell you what you had for breakfast. I'm pi king something up, ok. For breakfast you had buttermilk bisquits, with two eggs, over-easy. A slice of ham and a glass of freshly squeezed O.J. You were gonna have the freshly canned peach jam, but your really trying to watch your sugar intake, on the advice of your last doctor visit. How did I do, am I even close?

[fox2]

@Mrgalacticone

It probably means you built the pyramids in a past life.

[Mrgalacticone]

@fox2 could be, o.k. let me try one more time. For breakfast today you didn't have much, weren't too hungry, but you were going to have a bread roll, you changed your mind at the last minute, instead you decided on just a cup of coffee. Am I even close?

[dt98films]

LOVE it! i am learning it on the guitar well i have ( :D )

[Uygur102]

the music is very cool and gives such a cool and relaxing sphere...AWESOME :D

[anaheimtk]

whats the name of the song that they are covering? and who is it by?

[MsGrampo]

jonathan richman gooood cover  ancora! please

[dannydemanny]

The power of the original record lies in it's authentic sound. I hate covers in general.

[ashercohen4]

Nice song. And it's not from egypt. It's original by some americans and this is the swedish cover. So it has nothing to do with egypt.

[candyman688]

good cover. I like it! gets *****. :-)

[MyHonorTribute]

sounds good!

[pasi671]

This is good , I like..

[jawchejawche]

This topic the song originally Moroccan and long-standing tradition and have developed Moroccan group named Hoba Hoba Spirit and how it is now Egypt ?

[jawchejawche]

هده الأغنية أصلا مغربية و من تقاليدنا العريقة و قد طورتها مجموعة مغربية إسمها هوبا هوبا سبيرت و كيف أصبحت الآن مصرية

[bernard3479]

[pirsmiki]

Jonathan Richman plays this properly... This sucks...

[c0o0o2]

oustanding mix :). Thanks:)

[pasi671]

yesss...

[nedex4]

lol im an egyptian they arent balck

btw im white and the egypttin in the south are black u dunt know anything about egypt

[da0arabgirl]

frist of all im an egyptain gurl and egyptains aren`t black there are some egyptains who are black but only its not more than 0.0000001%

[McGuyvers]

we r all black on a funny place!

[otaka732]

Nonononononono.............. That's not too true, The nubians are Egyptians and each and every one of them is "Black" Really tho, I don't understand what's the shame of being "Black" aren't we all humans, I am an Egyptian American and I classify myself as just that, no color. I would say 8% of Egypt is "Black" I've been everywhere in Egypt and I've seen it all. It hurts to me to see all that negativity against Blacks, you know the ancient Egyptian empire of Kush was about 76% "Black"

[SultanChase]

@da0arabgirl All Egyptians are Semitic Saharan Caucasoids, so we're obviously distinct from our fellow Africans south of the Sahara. As such, there are Egyptians whose skin colour is black, but who are not racially or culturally Black.

[plumdom]

wolf ... i agree , why try to guild a liily ?

[wolf1percenter]

jonathon richmond is the original , fuck the rest wannabees. this is shit.

[grandmaplugger]

agreed!!! get this poop off the airwaves

[GuiTaRMaNiaC557]

Agree!

[TheDeanmason]

This riddim sounds similar to King Tubby's " none shall escape " with Johny Clarke on vocals.

Which is actually a reggae tune.

[herrarnemossa]

That's where the riff comes from originally.

[Esets]

Also don't forget the original version by Earl Zero =)

[rutaloot]

@TheDeanmason

thats exactly what I thought when I first heard this

[ooosteve]

wow what a great tune! This tune is sooo grooovy!

[neeedflanders]

[AstromiteKelsey]

[KetChupBas]

[Challe135]

It says "a cover by a swedish band"

[nickfromni]

Sorry, but compared to the original this is a big pile of crap.

[jaapsneep]

it is indeed ! all it needs is one guitar and one drum/bassline

[lajerry89]

JOSEFSSON PÅ SVT!!!

[jonasbacklund]

jaha, senast jag kolla var han inte med... han hade väl bara tagit paus eller nåt... eller så tänkte jag på nåt annat band, kanske borde läsa på lite bättre innan jag skriver kommentarer kanske?

[hogvolym]

jag har skivan "palsternacka" som LP med dag vag, när han fortfarande var med stig vig...

[Strandmusik]

nice

[bjorncyborg]

Tycker mig kunna ana Lykke Lis "I´m good I´m gone" ; )

[hogvolym]

konstigt, stig vig är hennes farsa...

[Randomnoob1]

Nej, zilverzurfarn är hennes pappa. Inte stig vig.

[jonasbacklund]

ja, jag vet, kom på det efter jag skrev det...

[thijskievit]
