Bob Marley: Could You Be Loved

Bob Marley fue un músico y compositor nacido en Jamaica, conocido y respetado en todo el mundo, que difundió la música de su pais y en especial el Reggae, una música que provenía de las capas más bajas del pueblo.
Él quiso transportar a través de su música, un mensaje de concordia y paz frente a la violencia irracional que purulaba por las calles de su pais. Una violencia que sufrió en sus propias carnes al ser tiroteado en el pecho, pero que no impidió que siguiera componiendo canciones comprometidas con la sociedad y el amor. Para ello contó con la colaboración de un grupo de músicos -The Wailers- en concordancia y comprometidos con una misma filosofía frente a la vida y la música. Canciones únicas e inolvidables como "No Woman No Cry", "Could You Be Loved", "Redemption Song", "One love", "Is This Love"... así podríamos seguir con una extensa lista que se vió truncada en 1981 por culpa de un cáncer de pulmón y tumor cerebral.

Era el final de la estrella de la música más famosa del tercer mundo, pero no de su legado musical, que ha seguido influyendo en las nuevas generaciones de músicos.

Letra

Could you be loved and be loved?
Could you be loved and be loved?

Don't let them fool ya,
Or even try to school ya! Oh, no!
We've got a mind of our own,
So go to hell if what you're thinking is not right!
Love would never leave us alone,
A-yin the darkness there must come out to light.

Could you be loved and be loved?
Could you be loved, wo now! - and be loved?

(The road of life is rocky and you may stumble too,
So while you point your fingers someone else is judging you)
Love your brotherman!
(Could you be - could you be - could you be loved?
Could you be - could you be loved?
Could you be - could you be - could you be loved?
Could you be - could you be loved?)

Don't let them change ya, oh! -
Or even rearrange ya! Oh, no!
We've got a life to live.
They say: only - only -
only the fittest of the fittest shall survive -
Stay alive! Eh!

Could you be loved and be loved?
Could you be loved, wo now! - and be loved?

(You ain't gonna miss your water until your well runs dry;
No matter how you treat him, the man will never be satisfied.)
Say something! (Could you be - could you be - could you be loved?
Could you be - could you be loved?)
Say something! Say something!
(Could you be - could you be - could you be loved?)
Say something! (Could you be - could you be loved?)
Say something! Say something! (Say something!)
Say something! Say something! (Could you be loved?)
Say something! Say something! Reggae, reggae!
Say something! Rockers, rockers!
Say something! Reggae, reggae!
Say something! Rockers, rockers!
Say something! (Could you be loved?)
Say something! Uh!
Say something! Come on!
Say something! (Could you be - could you be - could you be loved?)
Say something! (Could you be - could you be loved?)
Say something! (Could you be - could you be - could you be loved?)
Say something! (Could you be - could you be loved?) /fadeout/
