    This song will stay in a special place forever in my heart. We laid our loyal friend to rest today, our beautiful German shepherd named Marshall. He had so much life and love. He would follow my mom around everywhere like her shadow. Marshall was her angel, her guardian. Mom was his world, and he returned that love tenfold. It was a match made in heaven. A piece of every or of our hearts went with him. Mom picked this song because it reminded her of him. She played this song to him when she was alone with him one last time. I dedicate this song to Marshall snd true love. ❤️

    As a Paramedic, we often hear how "Lucky" people are when they survive a close call, whether it's a vehicle accident or whatever. But, we are actually lucky everyday we are alive. Life is good. Thank you for the amazing music to make this life even better.

    My mom got diagnosed with vascular dementia this year.
    This song brings me back to when my older brother finally stopped protecting me and told me the truth.
    Heart is still here. I've checked out emotionally.
    Thank you for this song.

    I got invited to Reggae Rise Up by a friend I didn’t know very well and it was literally life changing. Not only did I get to know that person better, but I saw how amazing the reggae music culture is (literally people from all ages and walks of life) and found many artists I’d never heard before. I’ve had some hard times recently and I keep coming back to Rebelution to cheer me up and remember that everything will be ok.

    It is an emotional song for me as well. When you played this song live, I started dancing with my wife, and it felt like we were dancing alone in our backyard, just like we did 5 years ago. Your music takes us to another place, and it is the soundtrack to many important moments in our lives. Keep it up!

    First time I saw Rebelution was in 2008 at a golf course opening in Northern California. Soja opened up for them and Max occupancy was like 50 people. They changed my life forever and my relationships with my family and friends. Too blessed to be stressed!

    This is my theme song. Just had 2 kids with a woman who has bpd,bipolar, ptsd.. just so many mental health issues.. I’m struggling so hard,trying to make things work. I want to help her but I’m learning there is nuthing I can do.. feel like I’m failing my children for even trying. They don’t have a choice. And I do. It’s not fair for them. So I hafto leave. God give me strength. Not being around my kids everyday will be hell on earth.

    This song reminding me of my mother who in heaven for 23 years from breasts cancer. So hard to let her go, I never say good bye to my mom. One day when I see her and tell her how much I miss her 😭 how much I love her, miss her smile 😖 and want to say good bye when I see her.

    I love knowing it means just as much to you as it does for us, every single time you play it. I find myself listening often but I will skip the song on my playlist if I can’t focus 100% on being in the moment with it and reflecting on its message because it’s too powerful to tune out. But it gets played daily nonetheless. It changes meaning over time and evolves with me.
