Postmen
Postmen is a reggae/hip hop band from the Netherlands; the original line-up consisted of Remon 'Anonymous Mis' Stotijn, Michael 'Rollarocka' Parkinson and Gus 'G-Boah' Bear.
The group was founded by The Anonymous Mis and G-Boah in 1993. They were influenced by Kool G Rap, Eric B & Rakim, Burning Spear and Bob Marley. On the road, Postmen play with a live band and have appeared on some the largest festivals in Europe.
Just before their debut LP Documents, Rollarocka joins the band and a string of hit singles followed. They enjoyed success in Europe, particularly in their home country of the Netherlands; their string of top 40-hits included "Cocktail", "Crisis", "U Wait" and a cover-version of Doe Maar's 1982 chart-topper "De Bom" (in collaboration with rapper Def Rhymz).
Postmen received regular radio-airplay (particularly during the summer season) although their second and third albums (Revival and Era) didn't reach former glories.
Postmen split up in 2005 because the three members had drifted apart. Anonymous Mis continued as Postman and released his solo-album Green in 2006. The first single Downhill features vocals from his award-winning rockstar-wife Anouk. They spent a year in Ohio with their three children to escape the pressures of fame, but eventually settled in Amsterdam. In May 2008 the couple announced their break-up.

Worry
by: PostmanWhy you try to stop my every move
My respect and kindness were true
You should worry, worry
Cause if this would all would happen to you
You would feel what a lot have been through
Worry, worry
Cause ever since we seek for loving
Won't leave don't need more problems
What we see is from only one way
How we see it is only one way
Cause ever since we seek for loving
Won't leave don't need more problems
What we see is from only one way
How we see it is only one way
Here's why I grief mostly bored and smoke weed
Steep were my hills in thought but I fought
Street dreams life taught experience scores best
Had the world on your shoulder you're left with a sour back
You ones had it all piled stacked and bundled
Till it all turned black at the end of the tunnel
Lost track than huddle had you trapped and muzzled
Without the rest you rolling back in trouble, hear them bastards chuckle
Heard you wining cause you stepped and stumbled
Dying inside acting like you mad at me lying
Been relying, been trying kept losing patience
Questioning myself on who the hell am I waiting,
Why you try to stop my every move
My respect and kindness were true
You should worry, worry
Cause if this would all would happen to you
You would feel what a lot have been through
Worry, worry
Cause ever since we seek for loving
Won't leave don't need more problems
What we see is from only one way
How we see it is only one way
Cause ever since we seek for loving
Won't leave don't need more problems
What we see is from only one way
How we see it is only one way
When growing up they held a hand on my face
Wasn't hooked up was rejected a place
I had to do something just perfected my taste
The largest thing ever never beated to date
Who ever was hungry shared a piece of my plate
And I always showed love why should I keep it away
But dreams had us craven for more light
And brother killing brother but it's one enemy that we all fight
And I don't hold a grudge I hope my men will be alright
And maybe in the future blow some heat in this cold life
It ain't my fault if you don't appreciate it
But if you turn your back on me, at least you could say it.
Why you try to stop my every move
My respect and kindness were true
You should worry, worry
Cause if this would all would happen to you
You would feel what a lot have been through
Worry, worry
Cause ever since we seek for loving
Won't leave don't need more problems
What we see is from only one way
How we see it is only one way
Cause ever since we seek for loving
Won't leave don't need more problems
What we see is from only one way
