Im, 40 and never new either. But we shoulda known... Its a bunch of other popular reggae songs that was direct rips of other music during this era.. 🤣🤣🤣
This song takes me back to 1990 February. I was home on leave and heard that a high school girl friend had been raped and murdered and left in a field. She had graduated in 89. I went to the funeral and while driving to the grave site this song played on what seemed every channel. I still remember how cold it was at the gravesite, and just remembering her smile. RIP Turisha Grant!! I still can't listen to this song without thinking about you!!
I heard this song years ago on a mix tape I had. I never knew who did it until today. I decided to google the lyrics. I haven't heard the song in over 20 years but I remember the lyrics. I had no idea Tracy Chapman did this song
I just realized that this was written by Tracy Chapman. ANDI am just now finding out this version is Foxy Brown? I had no idea she could even sing. Damn I feel stupid.
DISCO PARADISE 135TH AND CHRENSHAW, EL SEGUNDO CA, 1990 ...This was the party place for west indies folk , Yankees ...omg anybody...we partied our azzes off.
Im like the handmaid wats on tv ona Sunday nothing can get past me xx my son is the same we have a great laugh tonight befor he went to the town god nos how hes gonna nock out tomorrow xx
came here cuz I found a milkcrate full of 45s and this is the first i saw. i knew Foxy Brown from the late 90s but shes no reggae. Looks like the whole pile of 45s were all from Jamaica. If you want them, hit me up. Im from Toronto 🇨🇦
Me and my family were in a surf shop and the ladies that we're running it had this song playing and I must say this is the most uncomfortable sounding song I've ever heard of my entire life
Tracy Chapman, dumbass. Tracy WROTE the song, her’s isn’t a “version”, it’s the original and this is a horrific cover that sounds like it was recorded by a high school girl with a keyboard from Toys R Us 😂
let me know when u respond to what I SAID... I said this is the version Nicki sampled, which it IS. Nicki didn't sample the ORIGINAL,it's normal for her not to know it was a refit just like millions don't know Whitney refitted many songs and made them sound like they were created just for her. What the details of the record state : Song Sorry (Baby Can I Hold You) Artist Clifford Hayes And The Dixieland Jug Blowers Album What A Bam Bam! Dancehall Queens Licensed to RU-vid by Live Nation Video Network; Warner Chappell, BMG Rights Management, ARESA, UMPG Publishing, Audiam (Publishing), EMI Music Publishing, PEDL, UMPI, and 9 Music Rights Societies" it says nothing about Tracy, it is something that can easily be overlooked if you are not familiar with Tracy. Even on the record above it says ( J. Chapman) ?? like who is that...?
