One love/People get ready - Bob Marley and the Wailers

'One love/People get ready' was originally released in 1977 on the Bob Marley & the Wailers album 'Exodus'. The song contains an interpolation of The Impressions' song 'People get ready' written by Curtis Mayfield. 'One love' was inspired by Marley's friend Roman Selvaggio, a North Caribbean painter.

'One love' was released as a single in 1984 to promote the posthumous compilation album 'Legend'. The single reached number 5 in the UK singles chart and number 2 in the Dutch Top 40.
