UB40 - Present Arms Lyrics

Their best album by far

Loves this song 👌💯

Why they ended up covering or reggaefying other people's songs I will never know laziness,run out of ideas or inspiration or just an easier way to make alot of money Whichever way it was a tragedy because they wrote some classic tunes that are right up there with all the other greats of reggae.

Yup. .. one of the best reggae albums ever. (Dub good too.)

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤that is all

Born in '81.. grew up with the LP..I inherited it...still great LP

I've always loved this group's music...Jamaica mon...

The words "those were the days" have crept up on me, though I in my youth never thought they would.
But it's all good

got a piles of airplay at U of Guelph AllNighter in early 80s--- here's a playlist if you're nostalgic---

very good music

Why does this make me think of the boots advantage card...❤️

Well, why? 🙂

the early stuff was so much better

nigel healy the words to all early stuff set the tone to how they ended up which was a shame no Ali no ub40

What a tune still to this day 2018 🙌🏼🙌🏼

The best album from a brilliant and unique band.

Worshipped ub40 for many years. Now, looking back, I realise that it was only the first two albums that were pure class, everything else was just run of the mill.

they nailed it with this

Souvenir sur lequel j'aime revenir. Et toi ?

great smokin album

UB40 when they were good.

Born in the early 2000s and discovered them just a couple of months ago. What the hell was I missing until then!

Bar Goldstein good man! I was born in 1980 & been a huge fan of UB40 all my life. Signing off & present arms albums are by far their best material

Mike Curtis (2 Para) refers to this song in his book "CQB" after they leave the Falklands. I can really feel what it must have felt like being on that boat with his comrades-in-arms listening to this song
