Tony Gilbert, a long time friend of Marley, was present at the time he was writing the song and elaborated, 'Bob got inspired by a lot of things around him, he observed life. I remember the three little birds.

How to use our Online Metronome. First of all, you'll want to set the BPM (Beats per Minute) of the metronome by either dragging the slider, or pressing the +/- buttons.
Once you do, you'll see the musical term for the speed of the metronome as well. You can change this setting while the metronome is running as well. Next, you'll want to set your time signature, so how many beats you want to have sounding in 1 measure. As you'll know, the most common time signatures are 4/4 (4 beats to a measure) and 3/4 (3 beats to a measure), but our metronome is very flexible in this respect as well. You can set up to 16 beats per measure. You can change this setting while the metronome is running. You'll also want to set when you want to hear accented beats.
By default, the accented beat is the first beat, but you can set any of them to be accented, simply by pressing the corresponding beat near the bottom of the metronome. Now just press the Start button, and the metronome will produce your beat. It will also count how many times it's gone through the measure, as indicated by the 'Measures so far' number, which you can reset at any time.
