Favourite Reggae Love Songs

[Tropicana]

I haven't thought of this song in YEARS but it has been on my mind all morning. Funny the way the mind works isn't it.

Guess I have to go research Larry Marshall. I guess I can't say never heard of him but first mi bless mi yeye dem pon him.



I wonder if he had other songs I used to love.




What are your favourite reggae love songs.

There is a really lovely oldie with the lyrics "In the morning, I woke up with a smile on my face". I can't remember the artist or the name. If anyone knows, please share it.

Buju Banton & Wayne Wonder - Bonafide Love

So many but one of my favorites is Buju Banton & Wayne Wonder - Bonafide Love

[Tropicana]

Nice pick Xavier. Here is another one. What a beautiful clear voice:

You know it wasn't until Rockers that outside Jamaica we started to get a glimpse of some of these artists. It was great when they started coming to Canada. I am going to try to remember to post photos of the artists. It would also be nice to always have track lists to honour the musicians who created this beautiful music.

For sure this one belongs on this list. Love it. First time I heard it when my friend Andy Vernon and his Dad sung it in perfect harmony. Sadly. Billy Vernon is no longer with us. Picture this, Andy picked me and my Mom up, there was a beautiful buffet outside. It was a perfect night. Andy and Billy Vernon were set up under a tree and they sang for the crowd.

The next morning, this was playing at the market in Ocho Rios and I heard Tyrus Riley sing it for the first time. It's moments you wish you could re-live and the music brings back the memories.

Sounds like an oldie but who sung the original? Here is another version by John Legend.
