Recognize Reggae

This has been bugging me for several years, and I need to move on... please help me track down this reggae song!!

I went to a Radiohead show in Dublin, before the show there was a chilled out backing tape playing reggae songs. I recognised one of the songs, I'd heard it somewhere before and really liked it then, so made a note I should get hold of that song. The next week I tried to track it down. Sadly as I only remembered the start, and not any of the words, I couldn't describe it well, or search the web to find it. I've tried various "name that song" services, and singing to them hasn't helped. I've bought the reggae compilation Jonny Greenwood Is The Controller which was collated by the guitarist from Radiohead. It's not on that. I've hummed it to people in cars. On buses. In airports. At football games. Nothing.

So much time has passed, maybe I've warped my memory and I am remembering it wrong, and the hardest thing is that I remember the start, which is a descending bass line, which makes it very like *a lot* of reggae songs, but if you can rise to the challenge and if you are correct, then I am prepared to donate the prize of $20 to the person that gets this reggae monkey off my back! I'll pay you through PayPal as soon as it's verified.
