October 31[edit]

Question about Bob Marley[edit]

Did Bob Marley and his wife have an open marriage? He had alot of female partners and his wife had another man before him I think. 2001:569:7671:F100:8923:E816:99A6:71C6 (talk) 04:15, 31 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No idea the answer to this question but in most modern contexts, someone having had a previous relationship or having had sex with another person, before a new relationship has little bearing on whether or not the new relationship is exclusive. Nil Einne (talk) 06:39, 31 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
[1], [2], [3]. All three of those discuss the issue in varying degrees of nuance. --Jayron32 10:42, 31 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

New Question about Bob Marley[edit]

Has been stated by Rita that he raped his wife and is it true? Did they both love each in the end? 2001:569:7671:F100:8847:71E5:E4FE:A (talk) 15:38, 31 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your questions are directly addressed in the articles already linked above, other than the "is it true" which is unknowable beyond the statements of the involved parties. One additional source in your first question is this mentions it as well. --Jayron32 18:47, 31 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

for what its worth[edit]

I.know ive heard For What It's Worth in a movie (con air??).the article doesn't mention any, but do y'all know any in the last 20 odd years? Lihaas (talk) 23:48, 31 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

See if it turns up in this list:[4]Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 02:41, 1 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'd wager that almost all the films listed there use the song in question (and not any of their others); like Time of the Season, it's become synonymous with the 60s and hippies and gets used all the time. Matt Deres (talk) 13:06, 1 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
