Many of Bob Marley’s Songs show up on lists of the greatest songs about peace and critiques of war. We previously featured “One Love.” In 1971 Bob Marley and the Wailers gave us “Fussing and Fighting.” The lyrics are simple but the message combined with the music is deeply compelling.
We should really love each other
In peace and harmony, ooh
Instead, we’re fussing and fighting
And them workin’ iniquity
