  • awful.. please stop ruining bob marley songs

  • A ver son voces diferentes, no lo hace mal.. me encanta la verdad.. esta claro que como bob marley no lo puede hacer.. pero su voz vale para el reggae que fue con lo que comenzo cantando ella en un primer CD.

  • WHAT A FUCK ?!

  • naaaa. almost as bad as the redemption song cover. why doesnt she realize that this music comes from the soul not from hits and riffing?

  • She from the island, fuck you know. Go rhi rhi! Great taste

  • real big shit as real big ass she will have in some years

  • i love this cover!! her voice is reggae! shut up all you ppl!!

  • @iyuppie IKR smh

  • Uhhhh yeaaa...no -_-

  • This is a tender love song, not a funky rock one. Jesus, Rihanna! Try to feel the music for once, girl!

  • idc , this was good . a really good tributee even if bobs better

  • it's cool but is better Bob !

  • Nooooooooooooooo

  • who gave her permission to remake bob marly's song?

  • WHY ?

  • Ok, ok, i could star judging right now her style, but i guess this is only a taste that BOB MARLEY IS NOT DEAD!. Cause he´s in today´s songs interpreted by,, this girl, i don´t know her, but what is more important is the song.

  • no!

  • why are ppl saying she ruined the song?? she put her own spin on a classic song.. thats what artists are supposed to do. leave the original to THE original..no one can sing it like them. i like her take on it though.. its light and airy lol and a lil punk

  • Thats what I thought before I even saw any comments...Why is the drummer OD'n with the crash the whole time??? SMASH SMASH SMASH SMASH SMASH !!! I'm a drummer and play this with a band that I'm in. I could understand hip-hop-ifying it lol. But thats not even hip hop. Thats straight rock!

  • Less is more, I like her style but sorry to say this is a very weak cover. Drums is being to aggressive, reggae is about being in the pocket. No skank sound. I know reggae isn't very popular but if you gonna cover it at least get some musicians that know reggae music.. just my opinion.

  • Perfeito um bjo de tds os Brasileiros :) qe tanto te amaaa'

  • yo se que no es bob marley que buena voz la suya :F

  • no, not enough energy, too much cymbals, reggae gotta be a more raw, too much vibrato in her voice, just my opinion

  • This cover is terrible. Bob will be turning in his grave! WTF is she doing? She sliced and diced this one, then decided to put a freakin bow on top FFS grrrrr

  • stick to the teenie bopping ..... leave the rasta for the professionals. The worst cover I've ever had. She sliced n diced it and topped with a frikken bow! WTF

  • ...y

  • horn..

  • That was a great cover ! And the ones that say she sounds Like shut obviously don't know Caribbean music !

  • @chocolat014 well said! x

  • from her singing, she doesn't seem to be feeling much of anything, let alone love

  • What a slut.

  • wow i love when people comment on shit and at the end of the day know fuck about music just thinking that if you post a comment saying Shit, Crap, cant singing you will take rihanna or anyone els down for thatr matter your pathetic

  • Check the Rootsriders from the Netherlands... They do a far better Bob Marley Cover than Rihanna!!

  • Ha ha ha - that was terrible. I know if you have got anything nice to say.......blar blar - and usually I don't, but that was pants. LMAO

  • it's really good!

  • ew

  • bilal's version is the best

  • i really like it...IF U WERE FROM THE CARIBBEAN, U WOULD KNO THAT THIS IS EXACTLY WAT REGGAE MUSIC SOUNDS LIKE.!! 

  • wow she sucks

  • Corinne Bailey Rae did a better job on this song.

  • brutal cover. not many people do that good of covers though because obviously no one can do it better than bob himself. nice try rihanna thanks for comin out.

  • @acslater652: check bilal's cover. it's very good

  • Totally misinterpreted the meaning of this song - tryna make it all skanky and stuff. besides, isn't she a low key devil worshiper? seems pretty ironic that shes singing this song!! 100% ABSOLUTE FAIL!!!!

  • Her voice is okay but nothing compared to the Corinne Bailey Rae version.

    Rihanna is only famous because of her looks.

  • this cover is so bad taste.. wow!

  • the one thing i don't like about this cover is not necessarily her voice, neither is it because it's rihanna (although i lol'd)... but the thing that i don't like about this cover is the misinterpretation of feeling... this song is RELAXING in nature... it's supposed to relax you... but this cover just didn't relax me. ehh.

  • She bleats like a goat.

  • I wanna punch her in the face

  • lmao that was horrible! lol

  • People really need to be quiet sometimes, until I see you up there singing, don't say anything. She might not be the best singer in the world, but the girl can sing.

  • What a FAAAAIIL ! Bob FTW

  • 209 ppl don't know real music...this is horrible

  • just butchered such a beautiful song with childish whining....

  • Fucking hate the keyboard.

  • She fucking ruined this song. NO ONE can cover Marley. Its like, dont even try to.

  • white woman in black skin

  • horrible, cute dress tho.lol

    

  • fuck u rihanna

  • i can't stop to listen this song..i love it sooo much!

  • maybe peeps who havnt been listening to bob will like this.

  • @misterhop666 My thoughts exactly.

  • Respect, people, respect. I think this cover sucks too but think of it, her fans maybe will like it and it's things like that that keeps Bob's name alive.

  • i'm with you, 31mnm7, fuckin pitiful cover. she destroyed this song...and not in a good way.

  • Shes killing his soul for goodness sake! this is horrible!

    oh dear bob marley rest in peace..

  • ilove this ! she sounds beautiful - FOLLOWME- @inbrandonsbrain (twitter)

  • she is an amazing singer and she could have TOTTALY NAILED IT but instead she made it sound tottaly cheap, she should have done it more raw and not overdone, maybe just her a few amazing back vocalists (even a guy with a deeper voice) and only a few a instruments,

  • fuckin terrible cover stick to gettin the shit kicked out of u by chris brown

  • @31mnm7 she was so awful at that time, imagined her face, oh man, so pity girl, chris brown maybe a brutal lover to Rihanna.

  • she look like a mature porn star!!!!

  • i m not feeling it just because she covers it doesnt mean it has the feel even if she has a whole band her singing is overacted i can look she likes it because the band is for the first time playing real rough music

  • That's so ironic!!! Hahahahaha. Why didn't she sing us something about how babylon that we gonna bring down etc. Bob Marley considered himself a revolutionary (and he was in a musical sense), while Rihanna is just another barbiegirl ho happily exploiting her looks to ride the showbiz train str8 to Babylon Station. "Share the shelter of my single bed" my ass! Let Jay Z provide the bread. LMFAO

  • nooooo

    she butchered it omg

  • Jah Rastafari! Dis is shit. Peace to all people. One love. RIP Bob Marley.

  • wooow, i love her!

    her voice in this number is great!

  • i can dig this

  • sorry ... but this is fucking shit !!!! i don't like it ... the song by bob marley is great but this cover sucks !!!

  • its a gd thing that shes still a big fan of Bob Marley...ppl nowadays r really stupid!

    GO RIRI, U ROCK!

    BOB MARLEY R.I.P.

  • ppl dont understand singing today. i guess beyonce beyoncetized everyone these days because shes everywhere and she can sing like it nothing. but no matter wat ppl say.....she beats out all the ppl who yall say can say who can sing when her albums drop. and she doesn't use autotune.

  • I don't like rihanna's voice

    but I love the band!!! I wish some one else would sing here

  • I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE IT!(l)

  • esta vieja no canta m m m bob marley se revuelca en su tumba

  • omg this sucks

  • Shut up !!!

    You wanna see bobs version ??? So type "BOB MARLEY - IS THIS LOVE"

    You people should be happy that contemporaneous artistis still love Bob, and are helping to pass his legacy for future generations

    Great job rihanna... i love it

  • DAMN...this..this...this..this­..SUCKS BALLS, geesh Rihanna ruined this song.

  • charissaliyathorn - no bob song is ruinable.

  • Um yep she totally made it sound not what it really sounds like..

  • rihanna is a good singer, but she really crashed this song, as everyone did who wanted to cover it. you can´t cover bob!

  • lol she needs her audio tune to sound good thank god for that ish

  • a cover by rihana? iak!

    But the song is great haha

    BOB MARLEY JAM!

    IRIE

  • i dont know what to say.

  • omg bob marley is muuch better xD

  • @berir7 well considering it's his song i wudn't expect anything less. haters boy can't live with them but u sure can live without them

  • @berir7

    oh you know that shit man!

  • @berir7 but rihanna...is hotter!!!

  • @berir7 how about seeing it in a different light? a cover, how much better the original may have been, shows love and respect for the original artist.. so lets all chill out, about how much this sucks, or the amount marley was better.. a cover is a tribute, therefor it wouldnt even be wrong to cover songs into another style of music, because it just shows how much loved the original artist was. so it doesnt really matter how much "worse" this is.. ;) cheers

  • it sucks

  • superficial ...

  • Love Bob and I dont mind Rhianna... but some songs just shouldnt be covered...

  • Rhianna is good but im not diggin this band

  • @JahRootsRockReggae21

    the band is good, she is not

  • im sorry but rihanna < bob marley. this is no where close to the feeling that is in bobs version.

  • Go Rihanna...BV's are awesome 2!

  • her voice is awesome on this cover! the musicians fail though.

  • too much cymbals :( I like the background vocals.

    I think she sings very sweet for the this powerful version. It's not bad. it could be better. :)

  • sweet!

  • Sorry I dont like it...even though i am very opened minded

  • it's too fast and the drummer plays it way tooooo hard if he was smooth it wouldn't be bad :P

  • i dont understand why everyone hates this, I think its a really challenging soon and she did it good.. Obviously not as good as the original, but i saw her do it live in london... Its entertaining and shows of good vocals and appreciation for such an amazing artist. Nothing wrong with paying tribute. Remember she is from the carribean....

  • i have to agree, pretty shocking cover

  • that is horrible. never again.

  • some musicians were not meant to play reggae....dope for rihanna though.

  • thank u sombody agees

  • hey at least she chose an amazing song to cover. not the best cover ive heard of this song, not bad either. Everyone needs to quit complaining and just let it be. Your not gonna change the song by whining over youtube, if you dont like it, why dont you move on with your life. i give props to rihanna

  • finalyy..rihana does something remotely good

  • omg ppl who are likin this have to be real tru fans of her...ur loyalty is amazing

  • Love it!! I dare say more than the original. Which says a lot since I am Jamaican. Go Riri.

  • i think it's the band that ruined this cover.

  • that's terrible...

  • I'm sorry but you can't "Pop" this one ITS BOB AND THE WAILER FCS!!....this was utterly horrible. They only saving grace is the soulfulness of her back up singers.

  • This person should stay strictly to her own stuff. That doesn't hurt anyone.

  • People need 2 quit hatin on rihanna, she did her own lil thing on this..!

  • She can't cover him!

  • hahahahahah

    did she really try to do this

    what GARBAGE....

  • terrible cover

  • cagoma daña la cancion

  • I like it...

  • hey everyone being cunts.

    shut up and you try sing it better yeah?

    far out sorry we're not all as perfect as you aye.

  • HORRIBLE!!!!

  • chris bwon didnt kick the shit outa her enough , shes mentally confused now. NO ONE CAN REDO THIS TUNE

  • you're fucking retarded

  • oj cienko cienko

  • I Love her.... she revive the song in her own way (beautiful)

  • No you dont want to love me. no no no sorryy.

  • she is retarded as fuk!!!

    no one can redo this song....

    i know chris brown kicked her ass but i didnt he left her mentally challenged...

  • why did she even try!!!

    shes a stupid illuminati who ruins REAL music!

  • * right for her..

  • Ok. everyone has a right to do what he wants, but I can give critics and rihanas "style" of singing and interpretation is so awfully put together..... ISNT THERE ANYONE WHO CAN TELL HER - ACTUALLY NOT TO SING SONGS WHO APPEAR TO BE NO RIGHT FOR HER?????

  • Fail... bob must be turnin rite now...

  • Are you kidding!!!!

    what kinda dumb ass idiot thought it was a good idea to let her butcher this masterpiece of a song. Sorry Rihanna you are very willing but in no way able to do this song any justice stick to what you know cheek.

  • BOB THE BEST NO ONE LIKE HIM

  • RUINED THIS SONG

  • that is fucking ridiculous. it actually annoys me that she thinks she can cover that song

  • ok that was awfull, seriously the drummer annoyed me to hell and she killed the song .

  • This is a horrible combination... No wonder she uses autotune on almost all of her songs.

    This is upsetting, Tila Tequila's "No Woman no Cry" was better than this travesty..

  • Could this possibly get any more soulless?

  • she's singing wrong at the time 1:00

  • what's wrong? It's her interpretation, it can't be wrong hahah

    I don't like it, but I can't diss it, she has nice vioce

  • She RULE!

  • she is the best she made me love this

    song even more love ya girl do it for the island.

  • this is shit cover! BOB is the man

  • Man, I used to hate her but now I fuckin' really hate her like hell!

  • biulifulll

  • Comment removed

  • i think she has a good voice, but not to sing bob marley.

  • pfffrrrrrrrr

    This is like a hollow shell of how it should be.

  • This is a disgrace to the beautiful and melodius songs of bob marley. Stick to stupid pop shit lyrics u bitch

  • hater

  • pos no me gusta como la canta ella pero es bueno q canten las canciones de bob marley asi sera recordado por siempre

  • Omg! Rihanna please stick to your corny pop music and your beatings with chris brown!

  • ke gran mierda, esos putos artistas plastikos no deverian existir...

  • this song is the shit... it doesnt matter who sings it... i think it is good what she is doing here- since she is such a popular icon in the music world to young people she is getting this generation into old songs and not rap, which i have no problem with but what ever

  • Yo man shut the hell up.She may not be Great singing this song but she is,but altough she is BOB MARLEY will always be the greatest so stick to it man!

  • My eyes and ears are bleeding she looks like a gorilla and sounds like a dying cat,how did this chick get famous plz tell me?

  • I make music so i'll give u my opinion....the cover instrumental was too much for this song....ur suppose to feel the emotion in the beat...i dont think this is for her voice....no one should attempt this ever.

  • It's not horrible, she just not Bob Marley, and it's a Female coverinq it..so it's not qoinq to be PERFECT & listen closely....ummmm..she has a cold you fucktards.

  • omfg, you guys this was bad...

    watch her in machester

    and she can cover the song if she wants

    Shes carribean

  • Leave Bob Marley covers for the Jamaicans, dam this was horrible.

  • Horrible version. Horrible.

  • BOOOOH!!!! stick to your silly pop music rihanna, because covering legendary artist's such as bob marley is just not cutting it...go cover a brittney spears song or something...

  • arruino la cancion

  • vIVa la ViDa!!!! is this love...

  • Hey Bob Marley wanted his music to live on forever and look obviously it still is i bet he would happy about people covering songs.
