5.0 out of 5 stars
a huge surprise,
By MW (Salisbury, MD) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Big City Life Pt 1 (Audio CD)
I'm the type of reggae fan who owns only a Bob Marley collection and The Harder They Come soundtrack, and I hate rap. If someone asked me to listen to a reggae/rap song, I'd run the other way.
"Big City Life" is remarkable, though. Italian MTV had this video on heavy rotation, yet I couldn't hear this song enough. I kept the TV on mute all day until I saw the video appear. The song is catchy and elegantly simple, its lyrics make use of Jamaican patois, and it makes your body bob and weave. The singer reminds me of Roland Gift (of Fine Young Cannibals), and the song is one of those crossover oddities. I ordered the CD single, and have played it for friends whose tastes range widely. Everyone loves the song. To tell you my tastes would be no help-- they're all over the place. If your tastes are fairly eclectic, generally without regard for category, you too might be struck by this song. I can't imagine 2005 without it.

Mattafix is gay!!!,
By Johan Hager "John" (Frankfurt) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Big City Life Pt 1 (Audio CD)
Mattafix has no idea of music. Big City Life is a such terrible song. Deep Purple, Gary Moore, Bob Dylan etc. make real music.
