""The Prince Far I reference earlier reminds me of his song, called Virgin. In it, he booms out the words "Branson is a pickle that's not welcome at my table" (or words to that effect - haven't heard the song in ages). The song is a response to Prince Far I being dropped by the Virgin/Frontline label."" QUOTED FROM ARKLE

Yes Arkle, Branson (sic) or Branston is a brand of pickles.

I love when FAR I says " War inna Dublin, cause they couldn't get no dumplin' "

what song is that line from - i have it on a scientist/dubwise recording and was wondering what the original comes from....

Hi Jaimee

Came across this thread while looking for the lyrics to Jogging - Freddie McGregor, 3 years late but nerver mind the lyric comes from Hard Times - Pablo Gad

I don't think it is, cos that goes, "When me was a youth me used to bun collie weed in tha rizla. me used to bun it in a rizla......"

plus the voice is different. I'm still searching for this tune.
i'm pretty sure this tune your looking for is barrington levy: 'many changes in life' from the robin hood album. hope that helps.

To look, a piece of bread......."

".....Say what a rude lickle dread like dat,
Dis ya dread him must be idiot....." !!!!

Funny but true, and serious too!!!!
