Fave Bob Marley & The Wailers Song (s)?

Today marks 26 years since Bob Marley passed away so I thought i'd ask What is everyone's fave songs by Bob Marley & The Wailers?

My faves are Natural Mystic, No Woman No Cry, Redemption Song, Johnny Was A Good Man, Is This Love, One Love/People Get Ready, Waiting In Vain, Concreate Jungle,etc. And Damn that man was a great live performer! I wish I could have seen him live sad.

I was about 9 or 10 when he passed, he was only 36 yrs old. My fav song of his is "I don't wanna wait in vain for your Love", it was more Lover's Rock than anything else.

Mmmm.....I haven't listened to Bob in a while. I absolutely hate "One Love" for some reason. "Am-A-Do" is another one that I've never been crazy about.I never got "Trenchtown Rock" either..... or "Stir It Up" Or the studio version of "No Woman No Cry".....I love the live version though. I can't even listen to "Jamming" anymore because it's his most overplayed song. I've worn out "Could You Be Loved" and "Redemption Song" too, but "RS" is still one of the best acoustic songs ever,imo. Ok.....it's starting to sound like I'm giving a list my least favs. so I'll a list of my favorites. lol

"400 Years"
"Concrete Jungle"
"Misty Morning" #1 favorite. For some reason a lot of fans don't care for this one.
"Crazy Bald Head" I will admit that I like Fishbone's version a little better. redface
"Sun Is Shining"
"Punky Reggae Party"
"Slave Driver"
"Natural Mystic"
"Iron Lion Zion"
"Get Up Stand Up"
"Hammer"
"I Shot the Sheriff" I like Eric's version too.

I don't know...I've just never cared for it. The fact that it was used in a Jamaica commercial didn't help either. lol
