Bob Marley Uprising Redemption Song
18th August 2007 Saturday Evening "Leilot Yaffo - Jaffa Nights"
Artist: Bob Marley
Album: Uprising
Title: Redemption Song

Old pirates, yes, they rob i;
Sold i to the merchant ships,
Minutes after they took i
From the bottomless pit.
But my hand was made strong
By the 'and of the almighty.
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly.
Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom? -
'cause all i ever have:
Redemption songs;
Redemption songs.

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;
None but ourselves can free our minds.
Have no fear for atomic energy,
'cause none of them can stop the time.
How long shall they kill our prophets,
While we stand aside and look? ooh!
Some say it's just a part of it:
We've got to fulfil de book.

Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom? -
'cause all i ever have:
Redemption songs;
Redemption songs;
Redemption songs.

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;
None but ourselves can free our mind.
Wo! have no fear for atomic energy,
'cause none of them-a can-a stop-a the time.
How long shall they kill our prophets,
While we stand aside and look?
Yes, some say it's just a part of it:
We've got to fulfil de book.
Won't you help to sing
Dese songs of freedom? -
'cause all i ever had:
Redemption songs -
All i ever had:
Redemption songs:
These songs of freedom,
Songs of freedom.

At Last! is a 1961 album by Etta James, and the first LP release for the blues singer. Released through Chess Records, the album consisted primarily of pop, blues, and jazz standards. James is presented as a more mainstream R&B singer on the LP, though several tracks are more traditional blues in style and vocalization. The album marked James' major mainstream breakthrough. Six tracks charted on both Billboard Magazine charts Black Singles Chart and Pop Singles Chart, including "At Last," "All I Could Do Was Cry," and "Trust in Me." In 2003, the album was ranked number 116 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.
