World Music: Manu Chao, "Mr. Bobby"

World Music: Manu Chao, "Mr. Bobby"

(France/Spain) From his packed live show at the Bayonne Arena in France, comes one of Chao's best songs, this soulful reggae tribute to the late great Bob Marley. Although his song implicitly acknowledges a recognition of Marley's message, Chao seems to be somewhat less optimistic or faith-driven:

Tonight I dream about fraternity
Tonight I say: one day!
One day my dreams will be reality
Like Bobby said to me

Hey Bobby Marley
Sing something good to me
This world go crazy
It's an emergency

Purchase the album on Amazon.
