Re: You Tube's reggae most viewed
Difficult to say, as there are usually many videos of one tune on Youtube. If you sum up the videos of "Money In My Pocket" you reach 1,5 million clicks, but the video with most views got just 658.000 clicks..

yes, that's a great moment when Forest Whitaker plays that cd in the car. Jarmusch is a reggae and music lover.

Capleton - Jah Jah City, lyrics kinda fit.
