Instruks til lektien til mandag d. 24/1

Hej 3b

Lektien er som nævnt at I hver især skal orientere jer i én af de 3 cases som hver omhandler en af de helt store reggae-kunstnere.

I skal lytte til begge sange og læse teksterne imens. Derefter skal I søge supplerende oplysninger så I har et godt afsæt for at arbejde videre med casen i timen.

Fordelingen er:
Max Romeo: Tobias, Thomas, Matthias, Cille, Sofie og Mick
Toots & the Maytals: Morten, Palle, Arda, Nikolaj, Sara og Azada
Horace Andy: Sigurd, Rasmus O., Rasmus L., Lasse og Christian

Do the reggae!

Government Land (Give Up The Land) 1977


Give up the land, government man.
Give up the land.
Give up the land, government man.
Give up the land.

'Cause the people,
Ain't got no money, to buy the land.
And if they should go and live on it,
All you do is bulldozer them.

Give up Jah land, government man.
Give up Jah land.
Give up Jah land, government man.
Give up Jah land.

'Cause all you do is, slave Jah people.
By telling them to work and pay rent.
And all the land is on the hillside,
Don't you know? It's unfair.

Give up the land, government man.
Give up the land.
Give up the land, government man.
Give up the land.

How long can you keep up this,
He government man.
You know you can't fool wise man,
You will run away, in the end.

(..)

How long can you keep up this
He government man.
You know you can't fool wise man,
You will run away, in the end.

Give up Jah land, government man.
Give up Jah land.
Give up Jah land, government man.
Give up Jah land.

Rome (Not for me) (1977)



Rome, Rome, Rome is not for me, is not for me.
Rome, Rome, Rome could never be, could never be.
Zion I want to live, tell you people and I mean it.

Where the air is fresh and clear,
From all these polluted cities.
Yes I want to go and live,
Where the air is fresh and clear.

Oh so, Rome, Rome, Rome is not for me, is not for me.
Rome, Rome, Rome could never be, could never be.

(..)

Sinners I want you to know,
That Jah is near, He's very near.

Now is the time, you must realize,
Revelation is revealing.

Oh so, Rome, Rome, Rome could never be, could never be.
A say, Rome, no, no, no, is not my home, no, no.
Zion is my home, tell you people and I meant it.

Where the air is fresh and clear,
From all these polluted cities.

Oh so, Rome, Rome, Rome is not my home, no, no.
Zion is my home, tell you people and I meant it..

Three Blind Mice



I went to a party,
Last Saturday night.
When I reached the party,
Everything was right.
Then Babylon raid,
Them raid, them raid.
Me gets me 'fraid,
Me gets me 'fraid.

It was like three blind mice,
You could-a see how dem run.
It was like three blind mice,
You could-a see how dem run.

Baddie sticks start flyin',
Man start to bawl.
Some jump de fence,
Some put off defence.
But it gets me 'fraid -
When Babylon raid.

(..)

The police checked the deejay,
Tell him to turn off sound.
The crowd never like that,
Them start gathering 'round.

Let the music play,
Let it play, let it play!
Let the music play!

It was like three blind mice,
You could-a see how dem run.
It was like three blind mice,
No man no want go a jail.

Let the music play,
Let it play, let it play!
Let the music play!
Let the music play!
Let it play!
Let it play!

Living in the Ghetto



Be careful now,
Let me tell you what I know.

Some of the rich men,
Get their riches from the ghetto.
As far as I can see,
All the poor ones that live in the ghetto,
They put all their trust in vanity.
And that's why the rich ones shall be richer,
And the poor shall be poorer.

That's how it goes, hey!
That's where it's at.

You must first sit in the Kingdom of Zion,
Then all things will be added unto you.
You will never want, hungering or thirsting,
You will feed off this cup of life.
And then you will weep no more,
Know that it's God and God and God alone.
That set us free, from our misery,
Really set us free.

You sick with your soul brother.
You sick with your soul sister.
I say you wrong with my God,
It's not my God wrong with you.

You sick with your soul brother.
You sick with your love sister.
I say you wrong with my God,
It's not my God wrong with you.

You must first sit in the Kingdom of Zion,
Then all things will be added unto you.
You will never want, hungering or thirsting,
You will feed off this cup of life.
And then you will know yourself,
And know that it's love and purity.
That set us free, that set us free,
From all this misery.

Hey I'm from the ghetto!
People living in the ghetto.
Let me sing it to you.
Can you hear what I say?

That's how it goes,
As far as I can see.
That's where it's at,
I'm telling it to you.

Time tough


I go to bed, but sleep won't come.
Get up in the night,
I couldn't fight my feelings.
Early in the morning,
It's just the same situation.
Here comes the landlord,
Just a knocking upon my door.
I've got four hundred/month rent to pay,
And I can't find a job.

Let me tell you, time tough
Everything is out of sight, it's so hard.
Time tough,
Everything is growing higher and higher.

Sister Lee cannot bear it,
And brother Lincoln only stand it, now.
They're crying night and day,
Louder and louder,
Nobody to help them make their way.
I've got four hundred/month rent to pay,
And I can't find a dollar.

Let me tell you, time tough
Everything is out of sight, it's so hard.
Time tough,
Everything is growing higher and higher.

Good times was leading the bad times,
But now the bad times take over.
When I was a little boy,
I.. just keep on feeling it,
Feeling it, feeling it, feeling it.
Now listen.

(..)

Time tough
Everything is out of sight, it's so hard.
Time tough,
Everything is growing higher and higher.

Can't blame the minister.
And you can't blame the preacher.
And you can't blame your brother.
And you cannot blame your sister.
Can't blame your friends.
'Cause today is Judgement day.
And that's why everyone have to pray.

Let me tell you, time tough
Everything is out of sight, it's so hard.
Time tough,
Everything is growing higher and higher.

Bob Marley "Get up, Stand up" (1973)

Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: don't give up the fight!

Preacherman, don't tell me,
Heaven is under the earth.
I know you don't know
What life is really worth.
It's not all that glitters is gold;
'Alf the story has never been told:
So now you see the light, eh!
Stand up for your rights. Come on!

Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: don't give up the fight!
Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: don't give up the fight!

Most people think,
Great God will come from the skies,
Take away everything
And make everybody feel high.
But if you know what life is worth,
You will look for yours on earth:
And now you see the light,
You stand up for your rights. Jah!

Get up, stand up! (Jah, Jah!)
Stand up for your rights! (Oh-hoo!)
Get up, stand up! (Get up, stand up!)
Don't give up the fight! (Life is your right!)
Get up, stand up! (So we can't give up the fight!)
Stand up for your rights! (Lord, Lord!)
Get up, stand up! (Keep on struggling on!)
Don't give up the fight! (Yeah!)

We sick an' tired of-a your ism-skism game -
Dyin' 'n' goin' to heaven in-a Jesus' name, Lord.
We know when we understand:
Almighty God is a living man.
You can fool some people sometimes,
But you can't fool all the people all the time.
So now we see the light (What you gonna do?),
We gonna stand up for our rights! (Yeah, yeah, yeah!)

So you better:
Get up, stand up! (In the morning! Git it up!)
Stand up for your rights! (Stand up for our rights!)
Get up, stand up!
Don't give up the fight! (Don't give it up, don't give it up!)
Get up, stand up! (Get up, stand up!)
Stand up for your rights! (Get up, stand up!)
Get up, stand up! ( ... )
Don't give up the fight! (Get up, stand up!)
Get up, stand up! ( ... )
Stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up!
Don't give up the fight! /fadeout/
