Sorry went all dappy there, right last night it was the Cure tonight another one of the greats well in my eye's, I love this one a simple done song just a dreed rasta and a guitar, some how even being a male honky from the shires this song put it's hooks in me many years ago and it's still does, great song great man gone but not forgotten well not by me lat least.
So who is it and what's the song.

Old pirates, yes, they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the Almighty
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly.
Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption songs
Redemption songs

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look Ooh
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfil de book
