Did Bob Marley write It's Going to be Okay?

The repeated lyrics "Everything's going to be all right" appeared in the 1974 reggae song "No Woman No Cry" by Vincent Ford (later legally credited to Bob Marley), as performed by Bob Marley & the Wailers.

Bob Marley (1945-1981) was a famous Jamaican songwriter and performer.

* The song is credited to V. Ford, however there is no evidence that Vincent Ford penned the song. The credit was given by Marley out of respect, to provide income to Ford, and to avoid Marley's contractual obligations with Cayman music.

Who sings the reggae remake of Stuck on You?

Answer:: Its Ekolu,a Hawaiian group...among othersI first came across this question when I took over a PC at an office where the person in the position before me had downloaded some interesting music, and found cached in the media player a delightful album listed as "unknown", which featured 17 great Reggae love songs, including a charming cover of Stuck on You. In trying to track down the answer to the question myself, so as to properly label this "Album by Unknown Artist" in the player's library, I've discovered that there have actually been several popular reggae remakes of this Lionel Ritchie classic.

Although my initial research would have indicated that the recorders of the version on the particular album I have on my hard drive is "CoLLie HeRb," a reggae group based out of Manila, Phillipines, gaining momentum in their reputation, further investigation into other samples of their music would suggest this may not be accurate, because the sounds do not seem to match, as well as the fact that they seem to focus primarily on covers, which is not what the album is comprised of.

So, I may still be looking for the answer to my question, but, in the process of trying to uncover the truth about it, I have stumbled upon other Reggae versions of this tune, among them, a lovely rendition by Eddie Lovette, and a hit that made it to #10 in the 80s on the British Pop charts by Trevor Walters. (Lionel Ritchie's version only ever made it to #30.)

Sanchez, a popular lover's rock/reggae recording artist from Kingston, Jamaica also did a upbeat version of this tune over the lively Boops Riddim.
