You Need A Bob Marley Poster
What exactly is the attraction when it comes to Bob Marley posters? They seem to be very popular amongst the college crowd for one. Walk through any college campus, and check out all the Marley t-shirts for starters.
Everybody knows who Bob Marley was. His music and persona touched a generation, and many of the generations that followed. It wasn't just his music, but his beliefs and passion for equality that has carried his name and legacy.
How is it, that almost 30 years since his passing, Bob Marley images, posters, shirts, and music continue to be as popular as ever. New artists continue to pay homage to his legacy in covering his music, and allowing his music to inspire their own.
While there have been thousands of good musicians and pop icons over the generations, only a small handful seem to reach the iconic status of legend. What is it, that separates these individuals from the rest of the pop culture mish mash? With Bob Marley, I believe, it was the universal message he delivered. He really believed the words he sang, and they resonated with everyone.
So why so many posters for Bob then? Here's some interesting stats for the Marilyn Monroe, John Lennon and Bob Marley. According to Wordtracker, there are approximately 5000 internet searches a day for the phrase John Lennon, approximately 10,000 for Marilyn Monroe, and approximately 18,000 for Bob Marley.
Would his popularity have been the same today, if he hadn't died so young? What message would he have for us in this digital age?
It definitely indicates an interest in Bob Marley, and all things related to Bob Marley, such as music, lyrics, artwork, videos, photographs and posters. I think a little further research is warranted here, to explain these numbers. Suffice it to say though, that Bob Marley was about more than just Reggae music.
There was a tone and timbre to the man that went message deep. But, what exactly was that message. Peace, love, brotherhood, understanding, compassion, passion? Yes, actually it was all the above. - 2361
