It's each to their own here and there's no doubt that Bob wrote a few crackers but for the lyrics alone l'm going for " No Woman no cry " ....." In this great future you can't forget your past "...the live version is just brilliant..." Everything's gonna be alright.."

It’s just a bit mainstream and not as revolutionary as his others. Bob is like the Beatles in that lots if his revolutionary stuff gets overlooked for the popular fun stuff.
