Even PEOPLE Who HATE this Artist's MUSIC--LOVE this SONG! | Professor of Rock

I'm not a huge fan of Marley but he is a legend. I have deep reverence for someone who can write music that continues to deeply touch people years and years after their passing.

I had never heard of Bob Marley and he was scheduled to perform at our local collage. The copied posters were so poor that you couldn’t tell the race of the person pictured. I made a derogatory comment about the person pictured and was labeled as a racist for my comments. I just thought it was the picture of a weirdo.

Every time I went to Moffat field with my dad, I got a new Beatles album. But the first 45 that I ever got was don’t shoot the sheriff by Bob Marley. Still have it.

Hard to imagine that somebody wouldn't like Bob Marley.

My father introduced me to Bob Marley at a young age when he travelled to Jamaica regularly and brought back at least four of his albums, namely "Natty Dread", "Burnin"", "Rastaman Vibration" and "The Birth of a Legend" which featured his earliest works. I added to my personal collection later with "Kaya", "Exodus", "Survival", "Uprising" and "Confrontation". Truly a legend, and "Three Little Birds" is beautiful in its message and overall simplicity.

Nice one fam..

I'm more a hard rock/metal head but Marley is soothing. He lifts you up. I'm gonna have to at least check out Three Little Birds. 🐦🤗🌿👍💎

What? Some people hate this artist???? I don't know anyone who hate this artist and I travelled around the world a lot. Never met anyone not liking him.

Your tag-line stumped me - I'm sure there are people who "hate" Bob Marley but I can't think of any myself.

If you haven't seen it yet, you HAVE to see the Bob Marley biopic "One Love." It is amazing on so many levels.

The night u released this I went to see the wailers n then man who played junior Marvin in the movie came out and sang a few songs. Thanks professor another great one

Professor, thank you for posting this video. During Bob Marley's heyday of the mid-late 1970s, I was a teenager who constantly listened to music on the radio, but I wasn't aware of Bob Marley or his music. For whatever reason his music just wasn't played on mainstream radio where I grew up in the USA. It wasn't until I started spending time in record stores as an adult that I became familiar with his music. His message was truly one of hope, faith and love in this often chaotic world. RIP Bob Marley.

WOW… thank you for finally doing an episode about the musical pide piper! His songs have been my mental medicine for my soul for YEARS! His voice was taken from us WAY TOO SOON! My husband (who has been the Marley fan way longer than I have been) and I took a cruise for his birthday and one of our island destinations was Jamaica and that was why I chose this particular cruise for his bday. We went to Bob’s compound and hubby absolutely loved it. To this day, we still listen to Bob Marley’s music every chance we get…

Wow, great episode. I loved Bob Marley, great artist. My favorite album of his, is Natty Dread. So much meaning in every song on that album

I watched when he was inducted into Rock n Roll hall of fame. I started listening to him in 1985, after his death, and I have never stopped listening and have done extensive research on Rastafarians and Rastafari or Halie Selassie 1. I now listen to his children along with so many other Jamaican music mostly Reggae. He is a man of talent, with a mission from JAH for Rastafari.

No Woman No Cry should have been a #1 tune in multiple countries.

Cheers from the Pacific West Coast of Canada.

A guitarist / singer friend of mine was asked if he liked reggae… his reply was, “sure, it was a good song…”.

If you remember the street lights turning on and thinking 'awe man' before riding your bike home; you're gonna dig this channel.

2 Bob Marley's songs I can't stop listening to:
Redemption Song
Jammin'

But I love all the songs from the Legend album.

YOUR WORK AND CHANNEL ARE BEYOND EXCELLENT AND AWESOME. THANK YOU.
YOU DEFINE THE ONES WHO DEFINED AND COMPLETED THE MUSIC OF EONS AGO THAT WE LOVE TO THE PRESENT.
THANK YOU FOR THE INSIGHT OF BOB MARLEY VERY TOUCHING TO THE SPIRIT AND SOUL.
MAY BOB MARLEY BE IN THE PEACE FRIENDSHIP LOVE OF GODCHRIST HOLY SPIRIT JESUS AMÉN PEACE CHEERS.

Oh, that crazy guy, who wouldn't go to hospital for an infected toe.

Sometimes, things never work out. No, everything will not be alright.

Bob Marley is bigger than music. RIP Tuff Gong

BTW check out Bono's great Bob Marley induction speech into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Good stuff, well done

Bob was correct. “It” fixes asthma! I’m 6 decades in and the last visit the doc said, it took a long time, but you finally grew out of your asthma! 😂. They couldn’t/wouldnt accept the fact. How sad. So glad it’s now legal.

Growing up Marley was never played on the radio in LA until KROQ started to occasionally play one of his songs, but really only after he died. I still never hear his music on the radio. The only exception was when I lived in New York where they had 3 major reggae stations back in the 90s. If it weren't for my drum teacher assigning me to listen yo reggae I would have nevrr heard of him until maybe the 90s when finally prople started finding out about him somehow. Probably through college stations. In Hawaii he got some air play too since reggae is big there. But in Los Angeles, growing up, they rould sponsor his concerts on KMET, but they would nefer ever actually play his songs.

PLEASE make a video about John Denver. He was a beloved icon of my childhood & no one ever talks about him anymore.

Bob Marley Rocked. I love the music and the message he conveyed . That was a very tragic end to such a beautiful life. His music and his soul lives on, in many of us. Thank you for such an amazing presentation of his legacy.

Back in the 70's and 80's some of us wore magic spoons ...
You're right, this channel does bring back fun memories!

So overated. Artist yeah .ok. but big deal. A certain group embraced him. But there were many just as good or better.

I’ve been listening to Bob Marley all day today and a ton lately. I listen to him a lot in the summer. He brings peace and helps me relax.

I was a nurse for 39 years and I was introduced to Bob Marley by a young patient who was in the hospital for an extended period of time due to a problem pregnancy. She was listening to his CD with ear plugs and she held one of them up for me to listen. I fell in love immediately and have been there ever since. Bought the CD that day as soon as I got off work. It’s one of my all time favs, especially “I Shot the Sheriff”

I never heard a single person say in my nearly 60 years, that they hated, didn't like any of Bob Marley's Music

I like most of his other songs better. I hope his estate is getting the money from the commercial that uses this song.

Why is everything today Gluten free. There is no definitive heath benefits for it...unless you have Celiac disease. There was a report in a medical journal that said it was more hazardous for women as it (gluten) contains a breast cancer inhibitor.

People will sing his songs forever!

Ha ha…I thought you were talking about Tupac

There will always only be one Legend Bob Marley 💖
I also live in the tropics and I have a mother and son family of birds who visit my porch several times a day. They come right up to my door and sing to me, so I open the door and talk to them and they reply. They always lift my mood higher and bless my soul, so I can quite easily believe Bob's friendly bird inspiration. Bob was also an Aquarius soul, and so am I, so I can completely understand and relate to his optimism and love for peace and freedom. His quirky song lyrics inspired by birds are very normal to me and what a blessing to the whole world he still is more than 40 years post his early passing.
A musician sent to be an instrument of peace. A true angel and the ultimate legend.
Another great show. 😊

I am not a religious person but,,3 little birds sounds like the father, son and holy ghost. Maybe thier is something more to this man that acted and talked a lot like Jesus.

Who hates Bob Marley? That's like an oxymoron.

There should be a love button for this. Three little birds has been on my mind for a few days. If ever I needed this song, it’s right now.

Whenever I travel, I always keep my ear out for a Bob Marley song. I've heard him in Mexico, South America, the Caribbean, U.S. Canada, Europe, and Asia. I've never been to Africa, but I am certain I'd find Marley there. He seems to be part of the Universal Soundtrack of mankind.

What's the song title?

Doesn’t work for me. When I hear the phrase “every little thing…” it just reminds me that’s what I obsess about. Oy!!!

659th

Ive nevrer heard of this song.

You can go years without playing a Marley album but when you do, it's as fresh as the first time you heard it.
