Please someone help with the name of song and/or singer/group. I really appreciate your help

Trying to find this old culture song.. that really moved me when I was a kid. The lyrics go:

"I want to know about the many many millions of my people, that went down down down to the bottom of the deep blue sea.

I want to know about the many many millions of black people, that went down down down to the bottom of the deep blue sea.

The ships and their soldiers were counting blood money.. (can't remember the middle but).

It was down in the shadow of the Thames where I heard the voice of my father singing... oh you wicked men, oh you wicked men... where you a defend where you a defend".

I'm looking for this 80's reggae song/artist but I few lyrics. I think I remember the beginning starting like this: Ahhhh, Ahhhh, Ahhhh, Ah. Every posse now, come down, come down, come down, come down. I'm not sure, but I think it's two people singing the song. Thanks for any help you can give.

Try "Pomp and Pride" by Toots and the Maytalls...

"Everybody just cry now, cry out, calm down, calm down...."

Might be it

That's the group Ovationz and the tune is called "Forever Love", on the album "Rockers Vibration" (DATC) / various artists. Still available on many websites.

Hi, Im looking for a song and for the life of me and my mother we cant remember it.....something in it like "we about to commit the body of dead stepson to the ground, ashes to ashes and dust to dust..........all i can give you is ring, Fire!....That is all we can remember, I last heard it in the early 90's on a casette, the melody was slow kinda like a gregory isaacs type of tune. Please Help!!!!!!

Group souljah's. Album.We live we learn. 1984 to 1986 era. Song goes like. we live each and everyday and tomorrow we learn we just can't go on like this.This is a reggae group.

I have been looking for an 80's reggae "dancehall" songs that goes like this:

Hold up yu hand a a gal can't tek yu man
Ba dang ba dang
Jump yu fi jump up.

I think its by Johnny P but I'm not sure. The dj played the song along with Shabba "can't do the work" and then "cover me" with ninja and tinga.

Help somebody! I am also looking for an old raggae song/ songs my friend had on rape. I'm not sure who it was drom or who it was done by but I remember the lyrics-

"other day, I went ro the worksite to check out my dread friends, natty dread "a-di ganja man" (and they'd say their positions)..."kinko dread,,,a-di main supervisor", nadi cinco dread a-di paymaster...then it would be the main chorus: a lalala the junkie master....da da da da to make your ears full of plaster...da da da da da di junkie master.

I have had raggae stores in the N.E. Bronx (little Kingston) look it up. One time I thought that I had found it in a record store but it was another version with singing like it was done and junkiemaster was not spelled the same. I have been looking for that jam for i'd say 20 years. I wished I wasnt so burnt and took the time to ask Glenn who sung it. Please help out if you know...

Lady M I am not sure of yours it does not sound familiar but good luck tall order being off of a toy!
