I don’t claim to be a Reggae expert nor do I consider my music taste very cutting edge…but I get a good feeling when I hear that song on the radio and I like good feelings over bad ones.

I hope to use it in a viddy at some point….

[Blurred]

knew you would chime in....

Check these guys out...this is from a live show so the quality isnt the best

You're retarded. Don't you realize that you are supposed to like music not because it makes you feel good, but because it makes you seem cool?

I think this guy is playing in Aspen soon. I'm not bothering to research that, but I think I remember hearing that a reggae act with a similar sounding name is coming. Maybe he doesn't suck live.

fucking-a thats pretty spendy

[scoober]

I think the point in some's distaste for this guy is that some kid is going to hear this song on the radio and think this is what reggae is and is all about and he will be sorely mistaken.

I am going to go as far to say that he uses reggae elements in his music, but it's not reggae. It's about as reggae as OAR is.

That being said I do like the song, it makes me feel good, and I sing along in the car to it just like I shamefully admit to singing along to OARs "Crazy Game of Poker".

College-whiteboy-jam-funky music, not reggae. (Not that there's anything wrong with that.)

[cmsummit]

I shamefully admit to singing along to OARs "Crazy Game of Poker".

[MOHSHSIHd]

agreed


OAR is honestly one of the worst bands in the history of music...

when I lived in the dorms I made a rule that my roomates could not play OAR in my presence. If I heard it on down the hall or something I would blast Little Feat or The Band or any music understood by people with brains to be "good"

seriously....OAR is so fucking horrible...

who in their right mind would ever own their CDs or anything?

[Art Shirk]

I'm probably in the minority here, but I fucking hate the Beaties too.

Iceman, you gotta play a little "shake ya rump" next time you are eating some pow.

By the way, any show in which someone fires a flaming arrow into the stadium ceiling must indicate at least a decent band, IMHO (Tacoma Dome circa 95, I believe).

[cmsummit]

<spoof on 40 year old virgin>

"you know how I know you're gay?"

"'cause you sing along to OAR"

[Cono Este]

I like the guy, I think he definetly sings about his spirituality with a passion, but his general style, is right out of the book of alot of late 80`s reggae bands. Don Carlos, Half Pint, Eek a Mouse, Burning Spear, Jacob Miller Yellowman (remember than knarly dude?). If you like Matis, check out some of the orginal stuff.Personally im stuck in 1988 as far as reggae goes.

Yea, they are good. They have a tune in Weyhakin (spelling) TGR's kayak flick from a couple years ago.

No, that would be Wide Spread Panic. That band is a never ending droan. God I hate that shit!

[MOHSHSIHd]

well, i hated Panic for years and years too....until I saw them

being a Phish fan from the NE you are supposed to hate panic....



But the show I saw was fucking awesome...


the 4 chocolates we found on the ground on the way in probably helped though

[JMan]

singing OAR outloud in the privacy of your own car is more than boarderline suspect.
(not that there's anything wrong with that) if i may quote seinfeld

i hope we all agree steel pulse is a sick reggae band

They are no Black Uhuru or Midnite. I also prefer I-Vibe too. I saw Steel Pulse at Joshes when it was still around and I remember they played for about 45 minutes. My opinion of them has since diminished a bit, and the fact that along with Bob Marley they are overplayed, but that is not their fault huh.

Let me follow up with saying they are good though, just not what I listen to these days.

[Tap]

Steel Pulse - Tribute to the Martyrs

nuff said

[PNWbrit]

the fact that along with Bob Marley they are overplayed, .

Bob Marley overplayed?

You fucking philistine.

That's almost as bad as saying the snow was too deep or there wasn't enough groomed.

Matisyahu is a joke I'd rather stick a pencil through both my ear drums than listen to that garbage.

You are damn right Bob Marley is way overplayed. Jesus there are other reggae bands out there. If I hear legend one more time I will vomit. You can't ride a damn elevator without having to suffer through it. I am not trying to diminish his impact on the music world or the world in general but shit man.

That Philistine comment was funny though.

[PNWbrit]

O.k. I'll agree with you that the Legend compilation is played to often instead of the rest of his music and that it leaned toward being too easily palatable but it's still Bob - and some of us are old enough to have listened to it first time round

Keep in mind that all this is coming from a person who goes home to listen to the Eagles,Led Zep, Bad Company, and the Doors. He's been doing so for 30+ years now. Hotel California just keeps getting better after the first million times hearing it. That classic rock shit never gets old.

Gram Parsons, Grevious Angel!!!

[PNWbrit]

That's a fairly wild and very inaccurate assumption about my musical tastes. But does it mean that Mozart and Beethoven are worthless because people have been listening to them for so long?

[Villiage Idiot]

Most people don't listen to Mozart and Beethoven religiously every day saying all music after them sucks.

Were you "old enough to listen to them the first time round"?
