"Ain't Givin' Up" aptly demonstrates the band's longevity and ability to successfully re-invent itself with outstanding young musicians joining core members Cat Coore, Bunny Rugs, and Richie Daley. The album is sure to delight both reggae enthusiasts and crossover fans alike.

There's an old saying: You never miss the Water, until the Well runs dry. What comes to mind musically is the Warrior Kings of Reggae, INNER VISIONS, International Reggae Masters. INNER VISIONS provides the listening audience with the Authentic Roots Reggae sound. Yes, symbolically the roots reggae Well has ran dry on the U.S. Reggae concert circuit in the absence of INNER VISIONS. INNER VISIONS provides a unique style of Roots Reggae music, Cool Reggae Rhythms, Island style. What is so unique and wonderful about INNER VISIONS? Is that they continue to provide to the Reggae World's audiences cool conscious vibes. Many Reggae artist today would certainly benefit from INNER VISIONS, visional message of Harmony and Oneness. Love, Peace, Unity and True Rastafarism. What made INNER VISIONS the wave worth riding during their tour of the U.S. mainland this summer? Was the fact that this group of guys, Grasshopper, Ras Paul, Jupiter and the Players, not only assaulted us with their true musical message. These guys are genuine in nature, respectful in culture and an overall joy to be around. There is no rudeness in their game. To quote Grasshopper in an interview with DJ Ras Ridi, KNON 89.3 FM Dallas, Grasshopper said "they came to feed the people spiritually" and this is exactly what they have accomplished through their music. Hence their latest release titled "Spiritual Dancer." >From the beginning of their tour in the U.S. March thru August, INNER VISIONS provided not only some of the best stage performances on the U.S. Reggae concert circuit, but they also provided a much needed POSITIVE energy coupled with their high esteem for the preservation of the respect of women through music. Their constant positiveness, provides an open window of opportunity so that the true message of the music REGGAE will shine through. INNER VISIONS, honest hearted belief that JAH LIVES! Is evident in their character, making INNER VISIONS one of Reggae's Worlds finest of Gems always bringing Sunshine to a Rainy day. Check them out!! See what the people across the U.S. and abroad are saying about these Reggae Warriors of the Caribbean who calls themselves, simply INNER VISIONS! I entreat you to take this journey on INNER VISIONS waves, this would truly be an inspirational journey. Official INNER VISIONS website: www.innervisionsreggae.com INNER VISIONS remains greatly appreciative for the support of their fans worldwide. INNER VISIONS fans continues to ride the waves!

The lyrics are presented in multimedia format, in that the lyrics are streamed while the song is being played. We also have a static web page for each of the songs. Below is a snippet from the song "The Eyes Are The Light", which i just finished transcribing. Though I have had this song for almost 3 years, it wasn't until I typed out the lyrics that i realized just how powerful a song it truly is... Daniel Stand firm in obedience Stand firm in solidarity Stand firm in obedience The eyes are the light Of your body Look into the heights See you are somebody Somebody worthy of noble deeds Jah ina I and I Jah ina everybody Oh Rasta Fari If you have a heart If you have a heart Ruling over every other subject part Legislate with conscience And then make your rules Base all decisions in right and truth To hurt and intolerance This is the end If you don’t do this You must fight again Must fight again Must fight again Must fight again There will be no end *********************************************************************** In the abundance of water, the fool is thirsty Forward the Reggae Vibe...Every Time !
