Bad Religion - The Fast Life

Hard Pop Days 2000 Germany Bad Religion performing The fast life from the european version of The New America

[@MiguelPaulettePerez-bj8ml]

New America needed this song by default across the world... it's still a solid album, but this would have definitely made it stand out, especially as an opening track.

[@milosstefanovic6458]

BEST BAND EVER!

[@Hupsibasse]

"Propelled by a ghost force that never shows its face - increase the ante of this perpetual pace!" One of their greatest lyrics

[@GnosticXMusic]

Best punk band ever imo.

[@bedtimefordemocracy]

This song is amazing they definitely should be including it regularly! This, don't sell me short, and 1,000 memories are best from the new america!!!

[@dingusass]

Holy shit! That song was fucking awesome! It should be on every album!

[@bedtimefordemocracy]

I've never seen Greg have such a good time on stage, he clearly enjoyed singing this song alot!

[@NerdInHisShoe]

Ever notice that whenever performing, each band member is generally in the same place? From left to right it goes Brian Baker, Jay, Graffin, and Greg Hetson.

[@W.A.F]

And now 2024, It’s left to right , Mike Dimkitch , Jay Bentley, Greg Graffin, Brian Baker and Jamie Miller on Drums ..

[@wexenhex]

man, Europe gets the best extra tracks. Shattered Faith stands out as my fav...

[@David-dz1cb]

Always loved this song, and wish it landed on the album here. Would love hearing it live again!

[@notyoursavior78]

Great song, I love the intro.

[@greenwizard2112]

bad religion makes me miss mosh pits & magic mushrooms.too old but the music has staying power. the new songs are as good if not better then the old. who else can say that?

[@NoDirection888]

Hahah, awesome :) Thanks for posting this, tis bloody rare me thinks. Wish they'd play don't sell me short live at some point. Such a good song.

[@trainsandtrainz]

They need to play this in their live shows now. It's be killer with Brooks.

[@bulletprooftiger1879]

I miss Brooks Wackerman in Bad Religion :(

[@JohnZackarias]

I couldn't have put it better. Oh...and your videos are awesome.

[@the1andonlyMEGAJOSH]

A real BR gem. They kill it live!

[@alexroberts1285]

I played this song for my son almost every day while in utero.

[@felsner1]

01:33 - 01:43 - no, mr. camera mixer - Hetson plays the solo here!

[@Mercinq]

omg i love them :)

[@MarioHachemer]

I was there! Live! Loved it!

[@danielthompson5785]

Kicks ass

[@posthc]

this one is on my top 5 br song

[@JimmyRoyal]

Very nice song, never heard it before.

[@notyoursavior78]

Sometimes this is the only life I know. Anyhow Bad Religion rules!!!! I think New America and No Substance have really great songs, just they may not have bad songs; they aren't albums I think of immediate end to end listens.

[@rumhurius]

they are live soooo fucking brilliant !!!

[@andrealb4363]

The silent stray inertia No burden on my back No determinance, no ballast No chance of looking back It doesn't matter what's ahead It's time I'll hit it hard No fixing my position No sign of retard It's the fast life There's nothing I can do The fast life Suck it in and follow through The fast life Just learning as I go You might call it careless But this fast life Is all I've ever known Like a wispy feather Defying gravity Or a rolling cobble In the middle of the stream Propelled by a ghost force That never shows his face Increase the ante Of this perpetual pace It's the fast life There's nothing I can do The fast life Suck it in and follow through The fast life Just learning as I go You might call it careless But this fast life Is all I've ever known Ever since the day I came out of the womb My head was always bouncing Off the walls in the room Always scratching gravel Covering new ground No matter how hard they tried They couldn't pin me down It's just the fast life There's nothing I can do The fast life Suck it in and follow through The fast life Just learning as I go You might call it careless But this fast life Is all I've ever known Yeah it's all I've ever known

[@Mercinq]

THE FAST LIFE

[@Superterrestrial]

Those albums are fucking amazing! I bet you're a big New America fan (just kidding).. Well, whatever it's personal preference. That was rather shocking that's all.

[@Arcarpm]

Que pena que esta canción no sea tocada mas en vivo.

[@Superterrestrial]

This song is the best song on the album. Except it wasn't on the album o_0..

[@InfernalPurge]

Ask the record labels. I think they wiil argue that it sells well.

[@degstenk]

best!

[@Scallywag84]

Will someone please explain to me why european and japanese versions of cd's have bonus songs? wtf? Why are there different version anyway?

[@Lokimor]

Nice song 0.0

[@supermacguyver]

European Version! FTW!

[@emptyheadbrokenbones]

concordo

[@holmesglenn]

anyone have a source to download this song? can't even find it on any file sharing networks.

[@nasdrasil]

@DaJammerLammy think you mean greg ;-)

[@kishkumenhah]

the Fast Life and News From The Front are both B-sides from the New America... and they were left off the US version despite the fact that they were some of the best songs BR ever recorded... :(

[@andrealb4363]

Nop, both are bonus tracks respectively on the "European" New America and Stranger than Fiction.

[@andrealb4363]

I have both of them

[@Magechu]

I got that song on my europe version

[@Superterrestrial]

WHAT!!!!!! WHAT!!!!!!!!! WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY! You think that no substance is better than recipe for hate and suffer?!? I just shit my pants!! Are you fucking serious!!!!! Recipe for hate and suffer are two of the best BR cd's ever!

[@Errornix]

They have WAY more than 10.

[@dizzyz182]

And why isn't this on MY US version!? I'm angry now! (just kidding, I could never be mad at BR)

[@supermacguyver]

B side Holy shit!

[@Superterrestrial]

Well I dislike New America as an album but I love this song.

[@TheAtheistPeace]

66.999 views OMG :D

[@FuseBit]

Yeah surly evolutionism is the theory that "the proper one". Creationism is kinda joke to me, but... Christian view of science accepts evolution. Pope and priests agreed on evelution long ago. And evolution isn't on countary to religion at all. If you believe in God you can say that He created mechanisms of evolution and let it goes on ;)

[@kallentir]

european version? wtf

[@Superterrestrial]

Hahaha! lol! Are you serious? New America and Into the Unknown are the worst two cd's BR has ever made. You have some bad taste in bad religion man.

[@tripletrash]

i dont know but it sucks
