My mother did in a Dem place here

Back when life was simple. I love it. Big up yuh self fi di post!

I lived in Jamaica 🇯🇲 between the ages of 9 to age 15. 1970-77 I lived at 1 Dorado Drive, Harbour view, Kingston. Attended Harbour view school and St Benedict's school. I was fortunate to travel the whole of Jamaica when I was there. I probably would have still been living there but my Mixed English and Jamaican Family had bad experiences so we returned back to the UK 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Моя Любовь 🎉❤ тебе земле JAMAICA и твоему народу❤❤❤❤

They passed a bronze 1969 GMC half ton pickup on the streets of Jamaica 👍🏾

I remember this day so clearly.

Roads look so clean 😮

This is so weird. One year before I got there from England in 1973.

Awesome

Lord have mercy. Look pon mi sweet Jamaica. How cum mi nuh see me self?

Look at the children all walking from school to their homes safely, not now. Jamaica is now changed for the worse

This is the Jamaica I remember😍

Sad reality alot of these ppl dead now

Very beautiful! Brings back so much good memories. Jamaica is the best country in the world. Sweet, sweet Jamaica.

This is absolutely incredible ❤❤❤❤❤❤

How we wrecked such a beautiful island???( its not a country..get over oohnu selves 😮) In my humble opinion..heres some of the ways. We were not ready in many ways.. lack of access to the scarce resources.. lack of opportunities for the poorest...low literacy and understanding rate... RELIGIOUS and spiritual enslavement and the continued onslaught of irreparable damage done by the English and American powers are just some of the major reasons. To this day we collectively still do not have a clear understanding of how the world works and how to go about getting our leaders to fight for our best interest instead of advancing themselves 1st. 😢😢😢

Imagine a political representative offering the police safe passage outside of a community

That beat though 😮😮😮❤❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

My family lived in Mona Heights, Kingston from August 1971 to August 1973. This brings back a lot of memories of my youth (ages 15 & 16).

I remember dis like it was yesterday Adams come kill bay innocent people him a coward him run leave him men dem

2024 yall at

Love❤❤❤💕 Jamaica

I wanna go home ❤❤❤

Bless to my ancestors ❤

I was 12 years old❤

Nice music….those were the days.

Reading up on this now. I'm surprise more Jamaican aren't upset or how they could even like Europe.

I lived in Jamaica from 1979 through 1981, one of my best times.

I wish I could give this video and soundtrack a LIKE 👍🏿 Everytime I watch this video. I have re-watched this video at least 30+ times since coming across it. ❤️💯

"The harder we come".

❤

What dub is that ?

You people owe us reparations

This from 1972 you have dutty water running into the road until now is the same thing going on dutty politicians from both sides unu no gain knowledge yet

It seems all the females back then wear short skirts/dresses.

This is why I respect this officer "I cannot leave the government vehicle or my men behind"

This is long before i was born. Thank you for sharing this. Going to send it to my mother. She was only 10 yrs at that time.

The World is continue to develop peace and love to my people ❤❤❤

Innocent times compared to today..less is more JAH know...cthroo

Iwas there '72, and '73,...Big Yout' ,..S90 Skank ,..was d'tune ...we lived in Liguanea.. really nice area ,...( Near Mona Heights ),.. a real shame what THEY did to that island...real shame,...Oh ! You want an example do you...? Okay in 1972 , the Jamaican Dollar was valued at ( 2 to 1 ) US Dollar... Yeah !... Pussy dem Mash up the island...no police man in Jamaica knew ( anything ) about COCAINE, in 1972 ,.... Jah Jah..

Israelites. Always was,. Always will be. Nice.

To think that most of these grown-ups in their prime are probably no longer with us, yet we see them moving in living color gives credence to the ingenuity of human technology.

The mini skirt was in full effect. It's weird seeing the school girls wearing them too. It looks like the US govt was openly spying on the people. Jamaica was so nice. It's too bad what came of many parts of Kingston due to governments.

The year of my birth over Troy, Trelawny

I was in 4th form at SAHS getting ready for GCE “O” Level exam….enjoyed the freedom n general lack of fear….we use fi fraid a duppy more dan man…growing up in WR St Andrew was nice….use fi sleep wid di windows open..walk tru mi our lands n nyam everyting in sight…..go pon moonlight walks wid friends n use a glassjar full a peeny walley fi di light…walk go up Border n climb dung the ‘cliff’ so drop out pon di Junction infront of Castleton Gardens..den wen going home, hitchhike wid no fear to Temple Hall n den hitchhike or walk go home to LT…..every Easter, Independence n Boxing Day, we use fi have Fairn den dance at night..we kids couldn’t stay fi di dance but soundsystem set up early n we cou;d enjoy di music even in di daytime we were dere…a deh so my love of the music industry started…u n u frenz meet Satiday eena di village square since dat was market day…go GUNBOAT n BUCCANEER BEACH more time pon Sunday….stay wid frenz a town n sneak out go Red Gyal Ring go party to MERRITONES…oh lawd….BUTTT we must never figet dat dem years were a fight fi get we own fledgling music pon we own local radio station…yep….big up to MIKEY DREAD who led di way….n wat stands out sooooo much more to me, we kids respected ourselves, ourparents, our village, our teachers, police in our village…lived by the motto, ‘NO MEK U FAMBILY NAME CALL UP EENA COURTHOUSE….lastly, this poem we learned in Primary School to recite by heart still remains firmly in mi mind…. Nature -H. D. Carberry We have neither summer nor winter neither autumn nor spring. We have instead the days when the gold sun shines on the lush green canefields - magnificently. The days when the rain beats like bullets on the roofs and there is no sound but the swish of water in the gullies and trees struggling in the high Jamaica winds. Also there are the days when leaves fade from off guango trees and the reaped canefields lie bare and fallow to the sun. But best of all, there are the days when the mango and the logwood blossom When bushes are full of the sound of bees and the scent of honey. When the tall grass sways and shivers to the slightest breath of air. When the buttercups have paved the earth with yellow stars and beauty comes suddenly, and the rains have gone.

Should have posted the names of the areas.

Where is my Jamaica those days 😭😭😭
