Listening in 2022. Gentleman has been inspiration and direction of life when i was lost . My Christian faith became strong with his music. I love him to the max and my dream is to meet him one day.
This is amazing. What a beautiful rendition. And bringing so many other artists into the fold. Bravo. Takes me back to high school. Love from the Fiji Islands 🇫🇯❤🌏
Lyrics just hit home, Everyday drama, people all in a rush pressure building up. Bless up this great song and when feel down I blast out this album and relax..

Gentleman part on 2:35 : .. I wanna be ina the hills where the birds dem singing, Not ina the city where the bells keep ringing, Too much gunshot and senseless killing, The colour of the dollar and the shaking of the shilling, As you say go buss a head certain man willing, Third class fight the struggle and first class chilling, Sit down ina dem tower and champagne spilling. ..
Basically, it means 'in'. I think the extra syllable at the end is like saying 'in of', which isn't used in more conventional English, but I believe it is as if they're saying 'in of' like other English speakers say 'out of'. However, it could just be an added syllable that makes the words more musical. Either way, despite growing up being taught very standard English, I love dialects, and slang, and accents etc. To me, they make a language more musical, more poetic, more expressive etc. And they keep a language fresh and evolving, which keeps it alive.
Love to those lonely Love to those growing And especially love To those feelin' broken Wish you well It's gonna be swell After you get the ball rollin' You got gentleman's tunes You're basically golden From the Mars dunes To your room No doom looms Just the breath you're holdin' So let it be free'd, release And let the verse hold you Now put your hands in the air and give me a hug soldier And we'll file this in The positive vibes folder
Mein Stiefbruder hat mit dem Song früher die Wohnung beschallt. Gott hab ihn dafür gehasst. Jetzt kann ich's endlich wieder hören ohne Hass zu empfinden. 😀

I wanna be ina the hills where the birds dem singing,
Not ina the city where the bells keep ringing,
Too much gunshot and senseless killing,
The colour of the dollar and the shaking of the shilling,
As you say go buss a head certain man willing,
Third class fight the struggle and first class chilling,
Sit down ina dem tower and champagne spilling.

great job bro!
MrGreenlandCo what does "inna" mean?
Thank you so much! Not being able to get this was killing me lol.

After you get the ball rollin'
You got gentleman's tunes
You're basically golden
From the Mars dunes
To your room
No doom looms
Just the breath you're holdin'
So let it be free'd, release
And let the verse hold you
Now put your hands in the air and give me a hug soldier
And we'll file this in
The positive vibes folder
Wowwww!
Simplesmente excelente ❤
Epicness this Version! 💪

From time to time
Don't let the system get you down
The linguist across the seas and the oceans
A permanent itinerant is what I've chosen
I find myself in big city prison,
Arisen from the vision of man kind
Designed, to keep me discreetly neatly in the corner
You'll find me with the flora and the fauna and the hardship
Back a yard is where my heart is still
I find it hard to depart this big city life
Big city life
Me try fi get by
Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big city life
Here my heart have no base
And right now Babylon de pon me case
Big city life
Me try fi get by
Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big city life
My heart have no base
And right now Babylon de pon me case
Big city life
Me try fi get by
Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big city life
Here my heart have no base
And right now Babylon de pon me case
Big city life
Me try fi get by
Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big city life
My heart have no base
And right now Babylon de pon me case
