I don’t think that any of my analysis of Bob Marley would be of any value to anyone. He is certainly one of my all time favorites. This is one of my favorite tracks. “I’m hurting inside.” I think that it has a pretty powerful message. If happiness doesn’t come, “I’m gonna go lookin.” Spin it.

Kate’s favorite Marley song is Buffalo Soldier, and her favorite part of the song is the line “in war for America.” Except she thinks the line is “stars of America.” She belts out “stars of America” at random intervals throughout the day. Also, anytime she hears the word “America,” she immediately breaks out singing “stars of America.”
Anyway, the whole thing is weird. I would have assumed Three Little Birds is the Marley song of choice for the two and under set.
@Kelvis: Hahaha. I love stories about Kate. True, about the three little birds. I do, of course love that song as well.
