Don't know that particular song, but off the top of my head it's usually **[Paul Bogle](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Bogle)** and **[Norman Washington](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_Washington_Manley)**.

Just listened to it and it's
"Do you remember Marcus Garvey?
Do you remember **[Paul Bogle](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Bogle)**?
Do you remember Bob Marley?
Do you remember **[George William Gordon](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_William_Gordon)**?"

Simon

Your text message now makes sense. I thought you were losing the plot when I read it.

I thought it was rather random at the time but now reading this post it all becomes clear.

Just listened to it again, and now I hear it indeed.
Funny how sometimes you just can't seem to understand it, but then when you read along with the lyrics it seems so easy.

Thnx guys.

Glad to have been of help.

He really does use unusual phrasing when he sings "Paul Bogle."
