Great song and reaction! I agree with ITCHY that their version of I CANT HELP FALLING IN LOVE WITH YOU is another great song. UB40 is a total vibe. This group is a great example of “Don’t judge the book by the cover.” White English and Welsh boys spitting reggae/calypso music, lol. Love it!!

What you call "rapping" is toasting. It can be talking rhythmically, but also often chanting in a monotone melody (like in 'Red Red Wine') by a reggae deejay over a rhythm or beat. Traditionally, the method of toasting originated from the griots of Caribbean calypso and mento traditions. The lyrics can either be improvised or pre-written. Toasting has been used in various African traditions, such as griots chanting over a drum beat, as well as in the United States and Jamaican music forms, such as ska, reggae, dancehall, and dub; it also exists in grime and hip hop coming out of the United Kingdom, which typically has a lot of Caribbean influence. Toasting is also often used in soca and bouyon music. The African American oral tradition of toasting, a mix of talking and chanting, influenced the development of MCing in US hip hop music. The combination of singing and toasting is known as singjaying: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toasting_(Jamaican_music)

Looking forward to this one and love your reactions. This great song was a cover of Neil Diamond's Red, red wine. The best UB40 song in my humble opinion is 'One in ten'.. I remember when you reacted to Grandmaster Flash The message, how you felt that it told a story, it gave you a narrative of the time it was written. Similarly if you listen to UB40's One in ten, you will get a feel for what life was like in the UK in 1980/81. xx

Have seen this band several times over the years in different formats. They have lost some very talented band members since then, but there is no denying the fantastic sound of UB40. Can't wait until they arrive in Sydney in October. 🤞🇦🇨💕

@jimgore1278 2 года назад

One of my favourite memories is from 1990, sleeping on the floor of a hut in a village on the main island of Fiji - no power, no running water, etc. - and two guys walk past the hut with an old ghetto-blaster playing this song. That and the two horses that would eat outside of my hut every night farting constantly.

@christinestromberg4057 2 года назад

The video is good if you can get to see it. Those photos are not the band as they were when they recorded this one. They were very young. I loved this one back in the day and still do. I think a few people were surprised to know that this was a British band. The name UB40 comes from the name of the Unemployment Benefit form 40 people had to fill in to claim that benefit. :)

When I was a teen, I was vacationing at a great resort (parents loved to spoil with luxuries on vacations) that played reggae from 10am-10pm live. I woke up on my 16th birthday to hearing this song being played live beneath the balcony. It started an amazing birthday!

UB40 did not realize that Neil Diamond was the original singer/composer of the song - they were only familiar w Tony Tribe’s version and covered it.

The original is by Neil Diamond, This cover is by a British Band, UB40 The name "UB40" was selected in reference to an attendance card issued to people claiming unemployment benefits from the UK government Department of Employment.

UB40 was the card you took down the Unemployment benefit office to sign on to get your benefits, also got you money off tickets for their concerts, some great tracks about, King, One in ten, Earth dies screaming, to name a few, great reaction, cheers.

Been following you since you started the channel Recklezz. Stoked that you are finally reacting to reggae. As its been said, Bob Marley "brought the 3rd world to the 1st world" by being the messiah of reggae. But reggae existed before and after Bob. Many different styles and so many different talented artists. Here's 5 artists that represent different styles and different eras and different parts of the globe. 1) Mortimer (Jamaican), song "Lightning" 2) Lucky Dube (South African), live version of song "Its Not Easy" 3) Matisyahu (American), live acoustic version of "One Day/No Woman No Cry" medley 4) Justin Wellington (Papua New Guinean), song "In Love With U 5) The Green (Hawaiian), song "All I Need" This is just the tip of the reggae iceberg. I could easily list 100 more.

Recklezz you have said that right astro rip was brilliant on red red wine and Ali Campbell has a great voice and when UB40 were all still together in happier times the reggae vibe from there music was off the scales now in 2023 sadly astro rip is no longer with us there's now 2 bands robin Campbell with his band and UB40 ft Ali Campbell and Ali Campbell was lead vocals from the start and since losing our beloved astro rip Ali Campbell voice is still the same and to a lot of fans Ali Campbell will always be the voice of UB40

@sabinasabina2010 2 года назад

UB40 where a much more conscious band than this- this song was ok but they have some songs that really have a strong message, especially when they first came on the scene. For you Americans listen to 'Tyler' (about Gary Tyler who was jailed in 1974 in Louisiana when he was 16 years old) or 'King' (referring to Dr Martin Luther King Junior) but I have to recommend 'One in 10' as my favourite

UB40 stands for Unemployment Benefits form 40. Its the form folks used to have to fill out back in the day to receive benefits. Neil Diamond wrote this song. And he has said that he likes this version better than his original.
