U2's Bono delivered an impromptu, a cappella rendition of Bob Marley’s classic 'Redemption Song' at the Sarajevo Film Festival
“The Irish do share a few things with Jamaica above our love of rum and our shared lilting accent ,” Bono wrote for“It is surely the mixing of religion and politics and the righteous indignation that seeds a spirit of revolt.
The Wailers made rebel music that feels very familiar to Irish ears… and even to English ears like Chris Blackwell who signed Bob to Island Records. He could always feel the influence of original wailers like the militant Peter Tosh and the mountain mystic bunny wailer… and in the back ground the dub reverb of Lee Scratch Perry.”
