He made so many classic songs like You Can Get It If You Really Want, The Harder They Come, Wonderful World Beautiful People and Many Rivers To Cross! Anyone else like him?

    Great artist, I enjoyed "Wild World" which I think he was the original artist of & loved his cover of "I can see clearly now" Which got released in the 90's.

    Cat Stevens recorded the original version on his Tea For The Tillerman album. Wild World got to number 11 in 1971 for Cat

    An excellent cover though by Jimmy Cliff

    so the cover came out before the original?.....lol

    i guess the original was realeased because of jimmy cliffs success with it in '70.
