So sweet, my childhood music
My Dad listens to this song. I listened to it, but never really thought about it. I've been through some stuff lately, and now I just now see the light. (Pun intended) I love this song, and it'll always remain one of my favorites. I am so thankful for this song and all the things I have been given, life is awesome.
lets go dance toute la nuit
saw the great Toots last week in concert,...wow....there was so much love in the room / hall....!! LEGEND!!!
Chronixx did a beautiful cover of this song look it up
Pat Mcafee banger
I get my students motivated to work listening to this song...hell, I use it to motivate myself! Much respect to Toots Hibbert! (and the Maytals!)
"Everybody was crying, crying,
Sighing, sighing.
Dying to see the light!
And when they see it,
They see it's not bright.
Can this be right?"
Such great lyrics

greetings brothrens am at SA
Saw Toots at the Roxy in 1984, courtesy of one miss Rita Wirewaist, the bass player had the longest spliff blazing. Saw Gregory Issacs there the same year back by the Radics
Another great song from the legendary Toots and the Maytals!
Still love this festival song...
I agree with Evy alley!
This is my favorite song by toots! This song has the groove man!
Roots live in Brazil
Never grooved as hard in my LIFE as I do to this song!
DG .Tinderbox agreed!
If you thumbed down this song...your a trump voting fool
Loved Toots since I was 16, voted for Trump.
Bring back those old days.
Respect to Toots and to my late friend Winston Grennen, who invented and played all these drum beats. Stop complaining and accept this happy day.... have your pomp and pride.
VibesvilleStudio - fuckin' A!
if only you cleared the lyrics for us!
Winston had such an amazing groove!
I got to see Winston Grennen and the ska rocks twice when I was in high school. He put on two great shows, but they were in really small venues with only a few people there. He deserved a much bigger audience.
@moses ojuang' Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Doooooooooooo!

Adam B😞....are you for Real! Absolutely NOT the Lyrics at All☝🏾☝🏾🤣
Everybody just calm down here, damn it. Put that pomp and pride down and lay off Adam.
Adam B some of what writing is not right. he say come down not clam down
Amazing!
Adam B:”come down of your pomp’s and pride “
One of my fav tunes.
The song says Hegiton, Jacqueline, icelin come down.
Have u pomp & pride,....woooooooooooooooooo!
Love It
Ease it and happily, nicely, come down........ Just in case you were wondering?
Not sure what this Iceland thing is that I keep seeing everywhere!
Si Hartley It's amazing! I've seen that too here and there. But it's fun....I just remember the message! "Ease it and nicely calm down...." I remember as a kid in New York, when the Dave Clark Five's "Bits and Pieces" came out, I (about 1964) thought it had something to do with an Almond Joy candy bar. "I'm in pieces" sounded like "Almond Pieces" to my "candy store, pizzeria, Carvel, knish, and shoestring licorice" oriented kid's ears. Now, in East Flatbush, the two phrases sounded about the same. Today these 'personalized' versions spread off the block pretty quickly! ^_^ A great song, but yeah, where's the connection with "opulin and Iceland?"
I can feel the sun on me when I listen to this!
Love it! I play this and "Reggae Got Soul" back to back multiple times!
Pomp & Pride, give thanks Toots Hibbert and the Maytals! Happy Night!
I also heard this song in my bathroom. I sense a trend.
1 idiot a year on this video is a decent track record. haha track record
This song makes me smile for no reason. Woop !
I think its 1 idiot per year. 08-12 is 4 years. 4 idiots means 1 a year.
You are truly blessed in these perilous times.
Correction: 4 persons is a fuckin idiots...
P.D. I ♥ This music...
best of the best...¡¡¡
I guess 3 more now. So we average 4 idiots per year. That aint bad actually!!
do re mi fa sol la si do!!!!!!!!!
do re mi fa so la ti do
'Ti, ;not 'si'!
TTTUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
You are totally right except that they are 4, not only one...
@jamgrl38 BEST BATHROOM EVER
Sweeeeeeeeet! I lov this song!!

Thanks to The Specials Pandora station for getting me turned on to this group.

TUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
Triumphant stuff.. Love it.. Shout out to Mr. McEvoy..
lol i goy an ad for "find your happy place" appropriate
@ShadowCrashed81 actually,only uneducated people who make asumptions about things they know nothing about think that. Most people know the difference between skinhead and nazi.
beautiful
Where is the love yo? fuck fighting this is reggae!!!
shut the fuck up and enjoy thre music!!!!
wasnt a threat at all mate just a true statement n if you cant comprehend english read a fuckin book
@ShadowCrashed81 I can tell you one thing mate! You ever call us SHARPS a nazi your gonna regret it! i dont care what you think you know.. you dont know nothin apparantly
@ShadowCrashed81 I can list 300 names in several youtube comments and you would have no way of proving me wrong. I don't know how you don't think that that is believable though, if you knew anything about skinheads you would know there are MANY. And the meaning has nothing to do with having a shaved head and nothing to do with the subculture, so you can go call a real skinhead a nazi, I just hope it's not a SHARP you are talking to cause you might end up in the hospital.
@ShadowCrashed81 I can name around 300 people who are skinheads that I know personally are not nazis. How many nazis can you name that are skinheads?
@ShadowCrashed81 I'd like to see your credentials proving otherwise.
@ShadowCrashed81 Citation needed? Me being one, traveling the world, going to numerous oi shows and reggae clubs.
@ShadowCrashed81 Except almost all skinheads aren't racist so it doesn't make any sense. The few hammer skins that identify as skinheads are few and far between and most people the media labels as skinheads do not identify as skinheads and even less even have shaved heads.
This is actually Rock steady
@gibbogle its ska !!!!!!!!!
mike go.baski Definitely not ska, it is rock steady
the maytals are awesome
feel so good hearint this song. Sorry for bad talking, i'm french.
@MarleysDiciple
Is really reggae? I thought it was ska.
@Fireperv Agree!!!
My favourite dancing music.
One person was too high and clicked the wrong button.
this album is great :)
this was a festival song in jamaica..great times..
bought the cd this week. <3
soothing and uplifting, rah!
Brings me right back... i'm loving this..xx
Just got turned on to "toots and the Maytals" recently by reading a bio about bob marley, they are right up here with the top reggae music scene back then. really enjoying listening to their stuff. good post man
goed nummer bedankt man
@MrAblack1 you're welcome. I'll try and check their version out. I watched the Jolly Boys on Jools Holland's show not so long ago - they've got a nice old vibe going.
@CharlieBBoy12345 --Thanks brother! When you listen to the lyrics, it they are almost identical. I guess that means that the Jolly Boys, when they had a sort of "come back" in the 90's, must have covered Toot's work.
@MrAblack1 according to discogs, Toots wrote this one.
@alihunter84 Boomtown fair? SO good.
