If you’re here in 2024, you have a very special taste in music

This song wasn't recommended to you. You searched for it.

Yo, listen up! My dude got skills for real, but even he gotta use a u t h e n t I c v i e w s to get that quick shine. If you tryna get your name out there and blow up fast, you gotta roll with a u t h e n t I c v i e w s. That's the move, no cap.

I was 17 when this song came out 🩵 I can't believe its been 11 years, the memories this songs brings, beautiful and nostalgic memories ✨️🎶💕

This song is pure pain. This song is pure hope.

Confirmed, I will never, ever, get tired of this piece of art.

I remember listening to this song on repeat in 2013. I was 18/19 and going through a very difficult period in my life. Revisiting it now and the emotions from that time feel like they are being released from my body. Music is magic. I wish you all well out there.

I remember when this came out 10 years ago, now I'm 24. Crazy how time flies by... It still hits emotionally in the same way

Somehow this song makes me sad and happy at the same time:)

In love with this song in 2020!

Anyone who likes this comment will help me get closer to make my biggest dream come true, to travel to Africa

I just crying... Why? Beautifull!!! 2024 again

I think this is one of the best songs ever made in the history. It’s just a great song, listening to it i get really sad but also very happy in the same time.

This song for me is something else. Pure emotional. In January 2021 I’m still here

Even 10 years later and this songs still a vibe ✨

Los que llegamos por la pensión...

still the best song ever of major lazer

This is beautiful , yet sad song. It's a song about people who can only dream about better future. It's a song about poverty, but also it's a song abou tthe beauty of being happy in the present moment, about being happy by self-expression, dance and joy.

It’s this very song that brought upon my greatest realization. I listened endlessly in Warsaw, Poland. “Look at me, I just can’t believe what they’ve done to me” Now, GO GET FREE!

It’s crazy how long i’ve had this stuck in my head, probably since this song came out 10 years ago. Kept coming back, forgetting it, and then desperately looking for it and enjoying it all over again. Goddamn persistence out here!

This song makes me understand why people look for an escape in life. Life is hard, be kind.

"Look at me, I just can't believe, what they've done to me; We could never be free." I GET SHIVERS. So beautiful.

I m in Ukraine. Listening that sound and thinking about passed happy times. About sunshine mood in summer. About love and peace. Peace for eveybody guys. Remember that ! Only love and freedom rules the world

Probably top 10 songs in history of life

fave Major Lazer single - not even a question about it.

This ain't no song, this is some spiritual Shiettt that gets straight to soul

Everytime I listen to this song I get emotional rollercoaster. This song will never get boring

July 2015 I move out of my family home and out of my island home, I left friends, family and my whole life behind to move across the ocean, another country, another continent, another life, scared, sad, excited, I felt it all, luckily for me I met people that experienced the same thing And We became best friends. We’ve, laughed, gathered and cried to this song. Forever in my heart

Wow I will always come back here. This song takes your heart places :)

Anyone 2019?? 😍😘

This song was a huge part of the inspiration for my relocation to Costa Rica. The message in the lyrics, the vibe, the energy of the composition, all influenced my unconscious mind to manifest my dreams in this reality. Thanks yall

Danm man those days never come back

the first time i heard this song I fall in love, so beautful

this song gives me a bittersweet feeling. makes me wanna cry and smile at the same time.

I never heard of this song before but now I cannot stop listening to this master piece.

Every few months I return

my friend Levi used to rock this tune at the skate bowl super loud ghetto blaster right after lighting a 4 gram pre roll and passin it around....Levi hasnt been around anymore or ever again but hes not forgotten and alive forever in hearts like mine MUCH LOVE LEVI you are kindness and freedom and positivity wont ever forget ya

Jamaican culture roots from AFRICA. RYTHM and Dance just a different art form. FACT!! This video talks about being free. It demonstrates being free through music and dance the only way most 3rd world people can escape from their troubles and political corruption . Jamaican culture has been watered down due to acculturation. Thid is when different cultures mix I. E. Western culture. Being black is not a colour is an act through customs and traditions. HOW FREE IS THE BLACK WORLD WHEN THEIR POLITICALLY AND ECONOMICALLY controlled by the western world. Freedom is in the mind and the soul. Politics and society have put a barrier on how far you can rise. But once the mind is free u can rise higher. Freedom is a right not a gift.

Saludos de la Pensión

10% baywatch fans 90% major lazer fans

Major lazer can have music videos like this to bubble butt. Talk about variety. I love it because it mimics how humans can be deep and insightful to amazingly moronic all at the same time.

*this song feels like it was always been around, since the beginning of music* *Strange? But that's what i felt while listening*

This song makes me unleash emotions I never thought I had. Spiritual awakening.

Still best song in 2023! Found my happy place since 11 years :)

This song brings me so many memories...

I was a kid when I first listened this song. So many dreams. So many things happened since. I'm 21, and I still just want to be free and be only myself.

this used to be my morning alarm when i was 8-12 and my dad would constantly yell at me because i wouldnt wake up 😭 so he would just hear ‘ahhh eh’

The song never gets boring, it's the perfect song to think with

GOTTA LOVE JAAAAMAAAICAAAAAAAA

Jamaican culture is so beautiful and powerfull, just look at every single man/woman in the video, everyone has a story to tell thst could blow you away. Peace ! 🇯🇲

Even better in 2024. Amber Coffman is some kind of angel

This has been one of my favorite songs since I first heard it. Now the meaning of the lyrics is only hitting me for the first time, all these years later. Its time for me to get free. April 9th, 2022 - 5:11PM

Am I the only one crying rivers to this?

I don't understand why this is not on radio ?O

Who's here in 2023 and still can't get enough of this piece of art? I know I cant...

Heading downstream till the levee gives in What can i do to get the money We ain't go the money, we ain't gettin' out Heading downstream till the levee gives in And my dreams are wearin' thin All I need's relief I need I need some sympathy Look at me I Just can't believe What they've done to me We could never get free I just wanna be Look at me I Just can't believe What they've done to me We could never get free I just wanna be I just wanna dream All of my life been wadin in Water so deep now we got to swim Wonder will it ever end How long how long till we have a friend Comin' down, feelin' like a battery hen Waves won't break till the tide comes in What will I do in the sunrise What will I do without my dreams Look at me I Just can't believe What they've done to me We could never get free I just wanna be Look at me I Just can't believe What they've done to me We could never get free I just wanna be I just wanna dream We're all together in the same boat I know you, you know me Baby, you know me We're all together in the same boat I know you, you know me Baby, you know me We're all together in the same boat I know you, you know me Baby, you know me I Just wanna dream I Just wanna dream I Just wanna dream Baby, you know me

Dunno why this song didn't become popular in France, maybe because young french only want music to dance on in shitty club. My favorite from major lazer btw.

I don't normally make a post, but I must for this song. I've watched this video time and time again and it still resonates an unbelievably strong feeling me. This song alone made me love major laser. To some people, this is a good song, average, an ok song, a one time listen...i understand why they would say that they haven't lived and experienced Jamaica like few...but to people from Jamaica, words bearly sum up what this video is and means. It's not just another video and not just another song, major laser here has just created art in it's truest form. This art can easily sum up the life (all experiences, knowledge, pain, love ups and downs) of most if not all the Jamaicans of my generation, as hard as the feat is. Just lost for words every time I watch this art. I would sit in a room with friends, people, strangers, all will watch and as they watch you can look around and see the expressions on their faces, some say it has a nice beat, some say they like the singer's voice, but you will find the one or two captured and captivated by the art, as if someone was telling their whole life story. Not a word you will hear from them, as they sit in deep silence reminiscing on the feelings, the experiences, the life...this video brings back as they realize in that very moment that everything can be all summed up so eloquently.

My daughter "Meisha" passed away on 31 March 2023 aged 24. She was troubled in life by what some people had done to her. She sent me the link to this song a few years ago before mental health issues became worse. It hurts so bad for what men had done to her for years that I had no knowledge of, or could prevent at the time. So sad! It appears that a guy gave her an overdose because she didn't love him! This song I will always remember by.

Estoy aquí por la pensión ❤

This is truly one of the best songs ever! There are songs that I love for a long time that I eventually get away from. But this right here!!! This is till my death. Diplo for pres!

I can’t wait till I see the a comment pop up that says “ hey guys who is here after the pandemic?”

Anyone listening to this classic in 2023?

Baywatch 2017 brought me here

All these people look like they know each other, like its a big family. And I wanna be part of it.

Who still listen this in 2018 ?

This song has always invoked such a spirit of people, people's hearts.....there is something so soulful about it....incredible. It plays in my mind once in a while randomly and I always come back for a good listen.

10 años ... y aún 2023 la sigo escuchando. 💖🦋

3:25 - 3:56 that instrumental make me feel broke but i love it

that last guy riding the horse looks as free and happy as a human can be

I hope every future generation will keep this song alive

This is art. This is a masterpiece.

3:54 chick be like "hell no you aint getting this" lol this video captures quite a bit of Jamaican culture, major props to the producer.

This song to me is the definition of freedom. Feel so free listening to this beautiful track

2023 & im still banging this

This video used to scare me to death when i was young, cant help but loving it rn, just art

Don't where i heard this song, the lyrics just stuck in my head, searched them and now i'm here, beautiful music

FYI Jamaica is like any other place. For each bad place Jamaica has there are also good parts. And Jamaica is not all blacks. You'll be surprised to find a good population of whites and Asians that live there and go to school. Jamaicans are highly educated and the education level there is a lot higher there then in certain countries. While your kids are learning elementary school work in elementary, kids in Jamaica are learning high school work in elementary. Crime rate there is high but not as bad as people portray it to be. Before being hypocrites actually study the place and actually visit it. You would learn a lot from doing that. Don't just go on what racist ignorant people say.

If you still listen to this song, it is definitely one of your best in the whole wide world

I don't even remember how many years I'm listening this masterpiece...not little bit tired of it.

Some songs are timeless, just like this one.

Maybe someone can give songs similar to this, so light? God damnit Im so into it and I want moore.

This song makes me feel so old and so young at the same time

Damn !heard this in a cafe today and shazamed it expecting it to be new!woaw!!!!obsessed!

This song makes me want to light a spliff and whine real slow lol

The video is about the damage western popular culture did to the african culture and to its people. This is real, and it should make u feel bad. And so the lyrics fit perfectly.

My number 1 greatest song ever made

I forgot about this song for years i ammm livinggggg life rn

This song is always giving me goosebumps.

this is honestly one of the greatest video music ever, it totally describes the feeling the music and the lyrics

this song saved my life

2052. Still love this music

I love the color grading. Nice vocals, too! Beautiful voice combined with documentary style shooting makes you get a silent impression of the people. The grading creates a solemn environment, with people seemingly having fun and others staring blankly, looks of what seem to be despair on their faces.

only jamaica..................have to love it

Aquí por la Pensión

Can't get enough! Nostalgia mixed with a bit of sadness and euphoria at the same time. omg what a masterpiece.

Every so often, whether it's a few months or a years, I find my way back to this song, and all the memories, good or bad, that come with it. I'm so glad this exists

kinda makes me wanna go to Jamaica

Hits different when you are older 🤔

This gives me a beach vibe probably because of baywatch
