  • Pressure Drop är en låt ursprungligen inspelad 1969 av roots reggaebandet Toots & the Maytals för producenten Leslie Kong. Låten fanns med på gruppens musikalbum Monkey Man och som släpptes 1970. När låten togs med i soundtracket till den jamaicanska gangsterfilmen The Harder They Come 1973, fick the Maytals internationella karriär ett uppsving. Låten hamnade 2007 på plats nummer 446 i musiktidningen Rolling Stones lista över tidernas 500 bästa låtar. Låten har därefter spelats in i otaliga coverversioner, exempelvis av The Clash, The Specials, Robert Palmer och Izzy Stradlin. (sv)

  • Pressure Drop è una canzone dei Toots & the Maytals, registrata nel 1969, pubblicata nel 1970 e prodotta da Leslie Kong. Appare per la prima volta sui loro album Monkey Man (pubblicato in Giamaica dalla Beverley's Records) e From the Roots (pubblicato nel Regno Unito dalla Trojan Records). Pressure Drop contribuì a lanciare il gruppo nei paesi esteri, al di fuori della Giamaica, più precisamente quando la canzone fu inclusa nella colonna sonora di un film del 1973 intitolato The Harder They Come, che rese popolare il reggae in gran parte del mondo. Nel 2004, la rivista Rolling Stone posizionò il brano alla posizione no. 446 nella sua lista delle 500 migliori canzoni di tutti i tempi. (it)

text
  • It’s a song about revenge, but in the form of karma: If you do bad things to innocent people, then bad things will happen to you. The title was a phrase I used to say. If someone done me wrong, rather than fight them like a warrior, I’d say: 'The pressure’s going to drop on you.'" (en)
