    OK OK! I let a first impression cloud my ears. I have found myself enjoying a few things they did and I hated me for it! ":O}

    Upon reflection it 's the disco thing. I've never excepted that Rock should be followed by Disco.
    is why I live in seclusion! LOL

    Here's the version played at the start of Borderlands 2
    BTW I disagree with the first postings lyrics. so listen with your own ears.



    This is not the version that plays in Borderlands. I could not get that one to play...gots the studders it does!

    After years and years I have finally admitted to myself that I didn't like Bob Marley as much as I wanted to. Here's why I wanted to. he's singing my song, the one I could never have written myself. For me, this song covers all the exits.

    It is very hot around here and in a small apt my computers crank out enough heat that I shut them down for the month. They compete with the air conditioning.
    My health has slide back a little-but being bi-polar it's to be expected.

    Understood. I place mine right in front of my air conditioner. I still can maintain 20 degrees lower than out side temps.
    Weather expected or no, I'm sorry you've had a setback. Not much fun to be had in suffering is there.

    Just grab the cool of the evening when you can and keep us posted until fall. Winter is the season for overclocking anyway! Am I the last overclocker? I just knew I could do it! LOL

    Me neither. I thought dicso (oh dear, did I misspell that?) sucked. The true horror is that I liked the Bee Gees in retrospect, but not their "disco" tunes very much.

    What's perhaps even more insulting to we people with taste is that "Country" saved Rock. Help me, please!

    I never thought that Abba was disco, but it's quite possible I got that wrong.

    Both versions play OK for me. Seems I was mistaken and can't say for certain that I heard castanets in the first iteration.
    I couldn't play it at full blast because of the hour being late, now I've heard both versions at full volume. My bad!!
    I think I originally slipped into the "it SHOULD be there" zone. As I "heard" the castanets they were a perfect part of the song.

    Seems it was clever drum work after all. Oh, the ignominy, oh the shame!

    I've loved the man for years yet it seems my love was lower in importance, but not really less because I loved the rebel in him.
    I've never heard this one before, you are absolutely right, it's very important, and most excellent.
    Thank you for stirring it up!!

    Overclocking? does that still exist? Just plug in a new CPU and your off to the races!

    I'm running 2 rigs full time crunching F@H numbers and I'm not inclined to move them! No surie!
