Definitely.... too me one of the most underrated songs ever.

Mick Jones comes into my record shop quite regularly ( pre- covid) and is happy to chat about what he's been recording recently, happily signs autographs and will come straight up and shake my hand. True gent and legend.

[@garythompson5316]

That’s awesome mate! He is an absolute legend

[@jezwotton2126]

@@garythompson5316 They say 'Never meet your heroes ' but my wife was doing a p.a for a Bowie signing at hmv and not only was he the nicest man but she's got a photo of herself next to him. The thing I'm not really one for asking for autographs ( the M.J one was for my wife) but I would love to meet Roddy Frame who seems lovely in concert.

[@johnanglo5010]

Couldn't agree with you more.. went to see The Mighty Wah in the Lomax, Liverpool many years ago, Didn't know Mick Jones was there, got on n stage, pub come nightclub stage! n played some bouncin tunes.. totally unexpected and Great Night Then had a beer at the bar with the lads. .

[@jon-edmondwatkinson4972]

Said this every year since its release , my daughter would disagree to overexposure !

[@akf2000]

Listening to this again after all these years is like a punch in the guts. Such a perfect pop song. Verse, chorus, key change, synth strings, it's so beautiful, the music is so optimistic, almost sardonically so and it's counterpointed by the lyrics which are like stepping out of the Morning TV fakery into the real world. Look at the clock going backwards. It's 2019. It couldn't have been more prescient.

[@adampushkin1549]

Spot on mate, after this week it feels amazingly apt. Come back Roddy Frame, our country needs you.

[@JeromekJerome1972]

Couldn't agree more Asif. Upbeat tune that a postman could be whistling matched with biting clever lyrics. Feels like a lost art now.

[@tiki_trash]

This band always had some interesting chord progressions. I wasn't much for "80s music" (pop/Brit pop) back in the 80s but I liked these guys.

[@geofsharp658]

[@rockycoffee]

Is there any way we can get this song trending for number 1 by the end of 2020, would be a perfect anthem for a new start for Britain

The U.K. cannot right historical wrongs - but can no longer, without shame, profit from them. Plus: I want you to know and understand that I pride myself on ripping-off the English, Scottish, tourists and I passionately enjoy the experience with all my Heart and soul. And It gives me immense pleasure to announce that, indeed.

@ the tragic thing about the song is that, with the benefit of hindsight, we can see the UK has exactly no interest in this at all. The past is steeped in shame, and tommorrow will be too!

[@ferolcat2009]

Not really with references to the Northern Irish conflict that is now resolved somewhat but not completely by the coalition government of Republicans and Loyalists., tensions are still there with the opposing populace. There is also a reference to Scotland wanting independence from England and that the Welsh will or may follow. So not really a British anthem at all.

@ there is no country on this earth where no ppl have been wronged or where there never was slavery of abuse of others. Stop using non existing victimhood as an excuse to be a perpetrator and a useless bum.

[@sheilasydneynotyerbizniz2933]

@ ah you calling me a nazi says a whole lot about you (so mature). FYI, my grandparents, mom and siblings actually suffered under nazi occupation you ignorant fool. We do not blame current Germans for that. Everyone encounters problems in life, the difference is some of us make the best out of the cards we are given, take personal responsibility for what we do with our lives and make a positive contribution in the here and now instead of dwelling on the past that cannot be changed. Others play the blaming game and just add to the misery and polarisation. You just showed perfectly well which category you are in.

[@quizmember1126]

I heard it again today on the radio, had forgotten how amazing this tune was and the lyrics were so meaningful, it deserved to have got higher in the charts. So understated.

1990 keeps getting better! I was only 8 then and my only exposure to music was small town radio, MTV and my older brother's tape and cd collection. I love digging through this era and finding gems like this. 1985 to 1995 was such good time for music. Heard this song on WTUL for the first time the other day. WTUL is Tulane University's radio station here in New Orleans and now this song is on repeat. Such a good tune!

Jock's got a vote in Parochia Ten long years and he's still got her Paying tax and and doing stir Worry about it later. And the wind blows hot and the wind blows cold But it blows us good so we've been told Music's food 'til the art-biz folds Let them all eat culture. Chorus: The past is steeped in shame, But tomorrow's fair game, For a life that's fit for living Good morning Britain. Twenty years and a loaded gun Funerals, fear and the war ain't won Paddy's just a figure of fun It lightens up the danger. And a corporal sneers at a catholic boy And he eyes his gun like a rich man's toy He's killing more than celtic joy Death is not a stranger. Taffy's time's gonna come one day It's a loud sweet voice and it won't give way A house is not a holiday Your sons are leaving home Neil. In the hills and the valleys and far away You can hear the song of democracy The echo of eternity With a Rak-a-Rak-a feel. Chorus From the Tyne to where to the Thames does flow My English brothers and sisters know It's not a case of where you go It's race and creed and colour. From the police cell to the deep dark grave On the underground's just a stop away Don't be too black, don't be too gay Just get a little duller. But in this green and pleasant land, Where I make my home, I make my stand Make it cool just to be a man, A uniform's a traitor. Love is international And if you stand or if you fall, Just let them know you gave your all, Worry about it later. Chorus
