Red Red Wine - UB40

Seems like a good day to do this song, as I had a disagreement earlier with someone whether the version they posted was by Bob Marley ( it wasn't, was this exact version, it's so sad if someone hears reggae they assume it's automatically him). This song was actually written by Neil Diamond, and was a slower acoustic ballad, not doing to well on the charts. It was covered in a Reggae style that same year by Tony Tribe. UB40's version is a cover of Tony tribe's version, and was the only one to make it big, reaching number 1 on the charts. A nice little song with a lot of confusion behind it.
