My first post on the 3x7 project: a little jam from me, Koen, covering Bob Marley :)
I love this song and I chose it because it reminds me so much of some lifelessons... Life = no answers, just choices! Let us choose to be truly free!
After a concert, when I drove home with my girlfriend, she played the Life Of Agony-version in my car-stereo. It literally gave me goosebumps and it brought back nostalgic emotions from my teenage years. At that point i knew i had to record it and share my humble little interpretation of this great great song...

...i'll be posting more covers, original work, also collaborations, in a while.... i'm just setting up the sites as go along

Lyrics:
Old Pirates, yes, they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I from the bottomless pit

But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the Almighty
We forward in this generation triumphantly

Won't you help to sing these songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever had, redemption songs, redemption songs

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy,
'Cause none of them can stop the time

How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look?
Yes, some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfill the book

Won't you help to sing these songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever had, redemption songs
These songs of freedom, songs of freedom
