Bob Marley’s ability to connect us all in his message of hope, human strength, solidarity and endurance, remains just as relevant today as they were when he wrote them. In continuing to celebrate his ability to connect and lift us all, a new animated, official music video for Bob Marley & The Wailers’ classic ‘Three Little Birds’ (from 1977’s Exodus, which Time magazine declared The Best Album Of The 20th Century in 1999,) has been revealed. Created by director Morgan Powell, the playful visual is a clever take on a classic children’s cartoon and role play.
Powell revealed, “I figured it would be interesting to pick two well-known enemies and flip their relationship on its head. There are lots of enemies in the world and we are in testing times, even more now, and I wanted to pose the question of what happens if you push through fear or anxiety? What’s on the other side of that? With the help of the song I managed to push through and I wanted to give the video my best shot of portraying that.” Cedella Marley shares, “This song has helped provide hope and light for so many over the years, including me, and I hope it does the same for people now, especially with all that is going on in the world.”
