*Now That We Found Love* is one of the most iconic songs by the Jamaican reggae band Third World, released in 1978 as part of their album *Journey to Addis*. Originally written and recorded by The O’Jays in 1973 as an R&B track, Third World reimagined the song with a reggae twist, blending elements of funk, soul, and disco to create a lively, infectious groove. Their version became a global hit, helping to bridge the gap between reggae and mainstream audiences.

The song’s upbeat tempo, catchy melody, and vibrant instrumentation make it a celebration of love and unity. Third World infused the track with their signature reggae rhythms, incorporating playful guitar riffs, horns, and a pulsating bassline that keeps the energy high. The band’s smooth vocal harmonies and dynamic arrangement give the song a joyful and uplifting feel, making it a favorite on dance floors worldwide.

Upon its release, *Now That We Found Love* became a major success, charting internationally and solidifying Third World’s status as one of the most influential reggae bands outside of Jamaica. The song’s popularity only grew over time, inspiring later renditions, most notably Heavy D & The Boyz’s 1991 hip-hop version. Third World’s interpretation remains a beloved classic, capturing the spirit of love, togetherness, and musical fusion that defines their legacy in reggae history.
