10 QUOTES WITH «MARLEY»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word Marley.
1
Colbie Caillat
Bob Marley is a huge influence. I love reggae music, but I also love the purpose of the songs he writes and the style of the music - it takes your worries away and makes you feel good, and I think that's what music is about.
2
Kat Dahlia
I'd love to work with Michael Buble, with Tony Bennett, with Damian Marley, with Andrea Bocelli.
3
Mos Def
Bob Marley performed the 'One Love Peace' concert in Jamaica with the two different warring political sides. There's always been that in black music and culture in general. It's no surprise because black music is such a reflection of what's going on in black life. It's not unusual for hip-hop.
4
Amanda Donohoe
I have always been a huge fan of reggae music. I remember going to see Bob Marley And The Wailers at the Hammersmith Odeon when I was 13. I went with my big sister, Cordelia, and it remains the most wonderful concert I've ever been to.
5
Melanie Fiona
Bob Marley is one of the most recognized artists. He didn't care to be defined. People wondered, 'Is it reggae? Is it rock?' But at the end of the day they were still playing his music and that's what matters.
6
Jon Fishman
You're not there to spread any particular- if you're Bob Marley you're there to spread a message, but very few people can do that effectively without shoving opinions down someone's throat.
7
Jon Fishman
I don't know how you can go your whole life and not listen once to Bob Marley - what's the point?
8
Wyclef Jean
Bob Marley stood for universal peace and love. He tried to break racial barriers.
9
Wyclef Jean
That's the best way to feed the human mind. That's how Bob Marley did it. He never put it in your face. After you got the groove, you were just singing the hooks, because you thought it was cool.

Eve Jihan Jeffers
I listen to every thing, all kinds of stuff. I've been obsessed with the Nas and Damian Marley record, 'Distant Relatives.' I feel like a lot of people haven't heard it, and it's amazing.
