The London Riots - 2011 - all over SUS. Nothing changes.

[bimbopovero]

Reggae Reggae dal poeta del Reggae yeahhh... e voi dite che gli 80...

[SulivanCourt]

One of the saddest songs I have ever heard. Sonny did well .....what would anybody have done in a shituation like that...u cause no fuss and they carry batons and they wanna take you in for nothing and they beat you up, wank@@s. LKJ!!

[tonyajayi]

LKJ some great music with some great lyrics.

[tpqadw]

Blair Peach, 1979, an innocent man whose death was caused by at least one police officer.

Ian Tomlinson, 2009, an innocent man whose death was caused by at least one police officer.

They are not the only ones.

30 years and nothing has changed, whoever said the police don't kill people are talking out of their arse.

[3rk4u]

the police are allways beating on people,it goes on dayly,an if u dont believe you either live in some nice rural area,or your heads up your arse.

[robppc]

Thx god the sus law is all gone!!

[chess77]

[gfhgfhghhfh]

who ever uploaded this song knows about reggae big upp

[wolvoleke]

if ur feeling this check out the I think it,s called or is about "Blair peach" it's a true story a guy from Newzeland who was killed by the Police bout 30yrs ago in enlgand

[indieeeglasses]

'reggae fi peach'

[wolvoleke]

thank you dats the 1

[butlincat]

yes i remember well...the police still do it - check my vids of the G20 demos earlier this year where iam tomlinson was killed by police for nothing - and they still get away with it every time

[wolvoleke]

some people only believe when they see it on tv

[astralislux]

Stop it!  The police didn't kill anyone. Your lies (even if you're spreading lies that you don't know about) make LKJ cry because they diminish his argument.

[butlincat]

u talk shit - the police officer responsible at the G20 demo was suspended the other day pending charges - u are a government agent trying to suppress the truth - over the years the police have killed many people - we will not shut up!!

[DouglasWatts]

Street 66 and Sonny's Lettah are two sides of the same coin. Good insight.

[ELGROOVER]

One of the first songs/poems of LKJ th@ I noticed and it reached deep inside, tore right through my guts and straight into my heart. So sad and moving, it evokes such a mixture of emotions ; anger, sorrow, symp@hy and finally the reality check resign@ion, th@ tyranny can jump out @ you @ any time.

Wh@cha gonna do? R@her than fight the power, understand fighting without fighting to smite the might? Wh@ is right? Think for yourself.

Yes indeed, a beautiful melody for an ugly tale.

[rastatunchi]

Beautiful and sweet melody.

[espektrito]

LKJ !!!!

[SillyconBlast]

I like him most! He is really great.

I´ve seen him 25 years ago in Bochum, Germany.

This song sounds sad and true.
