There is a part in the Song Get Up, Stand Up Live at the Rainbow Concert 1977..... At some point he sings something that is not in the original lyrics.

I have been asking myself for years what is he singing here?
What does Bob Marley sing in this part here?

Bob is joining the backing vocals. If you ask me, they sing something like 'yah yah yah' or 'nah nah nah'.
Maybe someone else inhere can finetune the backings.

It sounds like he is singing Ma Saleh... But I do not even know what it means or what could it meanhans wrote: Thu Jul 02, 2026 2:48 pm Bob is joining the backing vocals. If you ask me, they sing something like 'yah yah yah' or 'nah nah nah'.

Re: What does Bob Marley sing in this part here?
I had a discussion years ago about this. At the time I thought it was "I must try yeah" but it was suggested it could be " A Mass Charlie" the title of an old mento song.
I really don't know for sure.

Re: What does Bob Marley sing in this part here?
my 'guess' is "I've got it, I've got it, I've got it" ???? although at first I thought it was ''I'm dying, I'm dying", but I can't imagine Bob singing those words at that time in his life?
Bit of a mystery.
Bass man Inyaki was very knowledgable on Ja artist lyrics having been backing many, on tours (he was especially helpful with Joseph Hills lyrics, some of which had puzzled me for years)
