In 1994 I was staying at the Atlantic Beach Club in Negril and we wandered over to a little bar built out of palm thatch on the beach. A DJ began to start a 90 min reggae session and he played this song by Tryone Taylor. I was blown away and I actually felt tears in my eyes as I looked around, took a nice big puff on the sensei and gargled a red stripe...I knew I would remember the moment forever...Jah Bless!

This song is timeless, its 2024 and makes me sad😢.

My dad showed me this song today, and grew up in the same neighbourhood with him in Jamaica, and the made me cry. Just the thought of losing my dad one day makes me cry, I love my dad more than I love myself, he is my best friend and the best person I’ve ever met in this world.

Classic, there should be a statue of Tyrone Taylor in negril this song is truly a classic he is so undercelebrated

The sax kills me to bits🔥👏🎧

A classic I will never ever get tired of listening to this song. Just a pity Tyrone was taken from us so soon.

One night my mum played this tune 57 times on the bounce , and it still sounds absolutely brilliant. This tune is the definition of timelessness, god bless you Tyrone Taylor for your songwriting and vocal talent, you are truly missed 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵

One of the best reggae songs ever made! 💥 🔥 I love the saxophone! 🇯🇲 💜 🇸🇪

This is pure pure reggae music. Makes you feel nostalgic.

One of my moms favourite reggae records. She's 80 years old, and still rocking!!

The original and best version of this classic. I lived on the west end in 1991 at Crotton grove cottages, Peewee's was my local but spent too much time at de bus, hurricane bar and many of those small great places! I met my wife there and this is 'our song'. I didn't get to see Tyrone but saw Gregory a few times, Yellowman & Ziggy. Cool times indeed for a young man. I returned and lived in Mo'bay a few years later for a year.

When I was a student in Southampton back in the early 80's we used to like to go to the West Indian Club in Brintons Road, and of all the lovers rock the DJ used to play in the "erection section", Cottage in Negril was my favourite. It is such an evocative song for me, and generates so many great memories. I still have the 12" EP of it on vinyl up in my attic. Tyrone, your genius was not properly recognized. May you rest in peace.

One of the best songs out of Jamaica ever

If I was younger, I'd dance the night away. Evocative song; reminds me of here in South Africa during the 80s, state police and the army terrorizing citizens, kicking doors down at night, daily marches and burnings, and yet somewhere in the background music would bring us together, soothing the thorny road we travelled to reach this point....®®®

This is one of Jamaica souvenir records ,this is a masterpiece classic

The saxophone 🎷 on this song just beckons tears

I've danced to this tune for almost 40 years now...will never bore of it

I dunno why my eyes water anytime I listen to this

this is a masterpiece

Big tune, well written and recorded.

What memories this tune brings back to me early 80s mrk 3 cortina in my prime pumping these tunes l used to get some looks but most people would start dancing and believe me it wasn't common to see a white boy with this sound

This what Yard music should be like:- Tuneful, Pleasant, Melodious, Easy Listening. Makes even an old school want to pump up the volume.

One of Jamaicas great T T🇯🇲 ❤️ .

Respect from England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇯🇲🌟❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

This is on my permanent playlist, even right now in 2020! Beautiful song.

Brilliant song, makes me shed a tear

This song is everything 🥰 when me and my sisters were little we loved it so much when my dad use to play it so he got us a copy on vinyl and wrote our names on it. He still has it to this day. Good memories.... they also names my brother Tyrone lol

I saw sunset in Negril at Ricks Cafe. Glad I did.

The vocal is off the chart, thank you Tyrone, rest in eternal peace my brother

What an Artist?! He left us to soon :( RIP Tyrone Taylor. BIG CHOONE!!

"I realised l love you still" memories of my youth

this riddim will never be forgotten God bless music.

I had the privilege of meeting Tyrone at Alfred's in Negril - probably 1993-94. At my request, he sang "Little Cottage ...". I met him again when he dropped by my little cottage on the West end. He was not at his best and his demons were harassing him, but I did not judge. He sang a few lyrics from a song he said he was writing for me. Thanks, Tyrone, for the memories. RIP. ♥

Love for this type of music comes with maturity, pain, love, broken heart, lost and understanding what is important in life.

cottage in Negril,always the best, respect from Nicaragua!!!

Takes me back to my youth days on a Sunday, chicken n rice Pon de cooker tunes bussing ☝🏽☝🏽☝🏽☝🏽☝🏽☝🏽☝🏽☝🏽

From my little cottage in negril 🇰🇪 ...brothers smokin Jane some sniffin coccaine some getting high.... memories are made of this .2020 self quarantine in kenya 🇰🇪

This some make me happy and sad at the same time....You had to be around my hometown { NEGRIL} in these days to know and understand the words of this song.We alway have access to Tyrone at KOOL BROWN because he was just accross the road at MILLA'S.These days are gone never to come back,how wonderful home was back then.Everyone was like family,the tourist who came and went...Cheryll,Susan,Chris,Mark,Vickie and so much other names i can't remember..Tyrone was my friend a brother,most people no the music but you had to know the man himself.Wonderful person.

days of my youth . I was in love with the feeling of love . This song says it all

I always feel homesick whenever I hear this song. It make me remember simpler times, when relaxing wasn't hurried.

❤ My dad George, Uncle Pat, and Sound crew would play this in parties 🎈 🎉 and dances😂❤🎉where women and men would whine up on each other 😂😂Great Memories of years gone by growing up ❤🎉DJ Sexy Soca Sam Hackney East London UK 🇬🇧 Both my father and Tyrone Taylor are gone too soon 😢😢😢❤prayers

Ahoy Rastafarians!!! I have been looking for this song for over a decade, not knowing who is a singer, or song title. Only heard it about twice in a year, in few radio stations here in South Africa

Awesome 🎼🎸🎼 I saw in Negril a concert in the back yard of a home as would often be the case..it was where I also saw Toots…This is indeed a classic 🌴☀️🌴 thanks Tyrone,

Authentic Jamaican rhythm and lyrics that makes me want to take a trip back home. Add to that is the grandeur of the blue mountain and Dunns Rivers falls, among other beautiful spots like Golden eye and Firefly, Green island and Ricks Cafe’. A true Caribbean beauty!!!

Such amazing memories from a time when youth was magic and those special people gave me sense and meaning to all my life, never forgotten and always in my head, this song brings you all back to me and that one love from Trinidad ..... I wish I'd said yes xx

reggae fan all the way....

A while way way back , I stopped by a friend's house to help out with something that was going on with his family.. someone was playing "Cottage in Negril" n Jodeci's "Cry For You" somewhere in the house and I thought ..hmm..nicee..then it was repeated..again..and again..and again..over n over..just the two songs..I left 3hrs later n I guess it was Jodeci's turn cause i can hear Jodeci still crying in the night air as I drove off.. suffice to say, someone done messed up big time and was now regrettably missing a certain someone..hope it worked out..

This toon still kills me all these years later.

Dad played this all the time. Finally went to Jamaica 2022. We were in Negril and went to Rick's cafe!

This is where my love come from I’ll never let it go ❤️💛💚

This is a masterpiece classic timeless song of the highest order

The last time I saw him was at a spring break concert in Negril, 2001, at a hotel that I was working. He was getting over his drug habit, but still still gave a good performance. Sadly I heard that he passed away some years later while I'm in America. Wish I had appreciated him more the last time I saw him.

Who is still listening in 2021?❤️😍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Wow , this songs brings back memories from back in the days when Jamaica was good .

Without doubt one of my all time fav` reggae tunes (-_-)

Who ever cam up with so song!!! Thank you so much. Never get tired of listening to hit. One of my favorites

Warming me up on a cold snowy day in NY. I'll be in there in 16 days. Can't wait just done with these winters. I hope to spend all of next winter in Negril.

Beautiful song....reminds me of my parents and bros 💕 Love you guys.

Sweet tune!! Original and best... pure lovers classic

I enjoy listening to this pool side with a Pina colada..thinking about the past

I ache for the Negril of the 70s. 80s and early 90s

great artist and this was his greatest tune. rest easy

Simply The Best Ever, on all levels

The best song ever

Sumptuously beautiful production on this tune. Reminds me of both my dearly missed mum and sister, who used to play this tirelessly. As for Mr Taylor's vocal talent....truly timeless. He and Beres Hammond would have created a gorgeous duet had he been around today, I'm sure. May he RIP.

This is always on top of my playlist still since then

U dont know how deep this song goes... :-(

I love that song,I used to live in Negril

My best tune ever just got back from Jamaica got married with my best friends and family jewel runaway bay
