Maybe the whole situation I've just "gone through" inspired me to be Bob Marley for 2 minutes. Here's my rendition...enjoy!

    Messiahtosh, technically, you were a bit off key at times but you have a good singing voice man.



    Pretty good little tune.

    Johnny Cash and Joe Strummer also do a pretty good version, in which Cash insists on singing in the Jamaican patois.

    i much prefer this ditty with the accent. the not-quite english adds character. a "normal" accent pulls the song too close, imo, to the conquering horde's tune, so it loses some feeling. but messiahtosh did pretty good rendition. by my clock, he was a little off in the timing, but mostly there.



    i'm pretty sure i saw an eddie vetter, or just all of pearl jam maybe, version on limewire once. or maybe someone else. while i was, um, looking up non-mp3 related stuff...yea, that's the ticket. "don't steal"

    "situation I've just 'gone through'"



    Does that mean you smoked up Bob Marley style?
