Answer: No Woman no Cry

Gotta love Bob!
2. Inner Circle sang this song. "Standing across the room I saw you smile. Said I want to talk to you for a little while."

Answer: Sweat

This song probably isn't as well known as "Bad Boys", but I love it anyway.
3. One of Shaggy's bigger hits. "How could I forget that I had given her an extra key All this time she was standing there she never took her eyes off me."

Answer: It Wasn't Me

Shaggy's bad advice to a cheating man...don't listen to him, fellas. My advice would be...don't get caught. ;)
4. One of Sean Paul's awesome dance songs. "Yo sexy ladies want par with us In a the car with us Them nah war with us In a the club them want flex with us..."

Answer: Get Busy

A GREAT club song, just makes ya want to get up and dance, huh.
5. "Woman your love is like burning fire in me soul Tease me woman till I lose control." Chaka Demus and the Pliers.

Answer: Tease Me

A fairly old song, I would say its from the early 90's. Brings back fond memories of my clubbing days.
6. "'Cause me say listen to the drummer, me say listen to the bass Give me little music make me wind up me waist" Probably the most well known song by Musical Youth.

Answer: Pass the Dutchie

Released in 1994 under the label One Way Records. Honestly, "Pass the Dutchie" is the only song of Musical Youth that I remember hearing...but a great song it is.
