A song, apparently, not notable. sjorford 18:18, 28 Apr 2004 (UTC)


 * Keep. While the article is poor at present, the song could probably rank among the 10 defining works of the Reggae genre.  It was recorded by Toots & the Maytals and is still in print.  We mention the song in 1967 in music.  It seems like I've stumbled across the article before, but it must be deja vu as it appears to be new.  UninvitedCompany 18:21, 28 Apr 2004 (UTC)
 * The subject may be noteworthy, but the current article isn't worth keeping around until a real one is written. Delete unless rewritten . -- Cyrius|&#9998 18:38, Apr 28, 2004 (UTC)
 * I just did. By the way, the song title gives me 705 hits on Google. UninvitedCompany
 * I'm going to take your word that it's noteworthy because I'm unfamiliar with the genre. Now a good little article. Keep. -- Cyrius|&#9998 19:04, Apr 28, 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep now, the new article is fine. sjorford 20:22, 28 Apr 2004 (UTC)
 * I concur. It looks completely reasonable. DS 03:27, 29 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * Its also referenced in the Clash song "Jail Guitar Doors"
 * Not unless it has an impact on something, or is otherwise a verifiably notable fact. Tuf-Kat 11:01, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

1968 original and all subsequent versions reggae, not "ska." --Pete Scholtes —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.73.182.157 (talk) 19:03, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

Mentions that the song is used for the bass line of Dub Be Good To Me which doesn't seem right to me, that's Guns of Brixton pretty much note for note. Could possibly do with checking by someone knowledgeable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.105.207.152 (talk) 11:53, 6 December 2015 (UTC)

(2020) incorrect song name, definitely NOT 54-46
Listen the original song. The individually pronounced numbers are (fifty)-four-five-six.

A lie still remains a lie even if repeated one million times.

The first number heard in the song is cut (by the song mixer?) to 4-5-6 aka four-five-six. The second number heard in the song is barely audible as a (50)-4-5-6 aka 54-5-6 (fifty)-four-five-six.

54-46 Seems to be a typical phone or sinsemilla misunderstanding.--87.180.12.208 (talk) 06:47, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
