[@alexedwards9152]

They deserve to win a Brit, an Oscar, the FA cup, all of it after this. Spot on.

Is the intro bit improvised or are they the streets lyrics?

[@shane9167]

@@bobfrommars321 The first half of the verse is from Turn The Page but the part where he sings about the NHS and the Tory mess is either improv or Joe just thought of it and put it in there beforehand

[@oB19o]

you're just lovely

[@danielrupert2317]

Thank you. I was wondering what the last bit was.

[@grandassassin24]

two genres you’d never think would crossover but the lyrical content fits idles style perfectly and I’m sure it would if skinner covered one of theirs. Two of my all-time favourites, this is still such a good crossover years later.

[@inkyhanz3237]

They've done a track together...

[@jacknolan312]

OMG - That beefy riff at the beginning, when the drums kicked & I realised what it was. HEAVEN. love from Dublin

[@chappersfromvale]

This is mint watched it about 100 times, people saying they can’t be punk and listen to the streets, we all listen to all kinds of music growing up, this just makes them even better for me, coz I love the streets
