[@charlietaylor7613]

[@cybiinnie]

the beat sticks in my head sometimes XD

[@xntricity6446]

Dam what a fking genius, I have been Inspired by so many band but he is up there on my list

[@notenough1484]

Does the beat still skip.....

[@Rpodnee]

I haven't heard this song in a decade I think and I still remember most of the lyrics. That's the power of good music!

[@rinsed7422]

yes

[@astyanax905]

yup, this ones a classic.

[@TimGalati]

Dear Scroobius, This is one of the best songs I've ever heard. Thank you for being amazing.

[@CancelledBeans]

The skippy instrumental intro is SO GOOD. It always makes the tiny hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

[@paradino2]

Epic isnt it, and it doesnt skip a beat.

[@graceostrowski9171]

Lol I remember bum Biddy Biddy Bidd, Buy bum biddy by bum I can't remember where it came from...so long ago But he's taking it off of another song, which is just fine with me cuz he's awesome!!! I'd have to look into that. This is the first time I'm hearing this song I just discovered pip 3 weeks ago through my neighbor...having stopped since✌✌✌

[@beppe2672]

It’s dan le sac at his finest!

[@WeCanInwardsSing]

These guys are actually amazing. Their album is so different from anything i've ever heard..

THIS SONG IS THAT OLD???

[@LoveNanni]

I only was JUST introduced to this.. I wish I had been listening to the past 15 years... this was so my style.. well guess still is lol but I think I've been playing it on repeat every since lol ❤

[@DEADTEAMXXIII]

Check out Dr Syntax too

[@MMOseth]

This song doesn't seem to ever get old!

[@ladycolt]

This song played on repeat for about an hour while the good ship STV Fair Jeanne, Brigantine from Ottawa Ontario, sailed across the Northumberland Straight from Tatamagouche NS to Charlottetown PEI. Without doubt, the best song for the trip, and a firm favorite onboard. Thank you, good sir, for singing.

[@PaperBackAlly]

I show this guy on the sampler at Play and instantly fell in love with his music, even though i love hardcore. This guy is a rapping hero!

[@Ssalamanderr]

This is the catchiest song on earth. Long live Dan le Sac VS. Scroobius Pip!

[@Mogatron]

I wish this single version was on spotify so I could add it to playlists without the album intro.

[@BeardedReject]

Thank you Pip big fan. You help me get through alot. -Bearded Reject

[@torrnikkay]

saw them at Grays Library las night. I' been dragged along by a friend and wasn't expecting much. Boy was I wrong! DLS v SP are amazing! Loved every minute of it guys. Keep it up!

[@jimhafezian335]

I still remember this song back in late 2007!!

[@SamuraiMasenko]

I remember when this first came out. It kept me sane in my break-up. I still have Thou Shalt Always Kill in my party playlist. Well, party folder. I'm still boycotting iTunes.

[@TheOneBailey]

for me dan le sac and scrrobius pip is the best duo ive ever heard.

[@Broseph159]

Just caught Pip and Dans last ever live set togethor at Bestival, was absolutely sublime!!! :)

Well the beat that my heart skipped sounded like this: Bom bom bom bad-i-ba bad-i-bad-i-ba bom ba-o-a-o Bom bom bom bad-i-ba bad-i-bad-i-ba bom ba-bom-bom-bom Every now and then I cower and I need to find empowerment Empowerment is paramount to how I can begin to mount A plan that I can implement To make a dent on ignorance Instead of drunk belligerence And the dissidence of miscreants Especially in this instance Never ending persistence To use the words in each sentence As if they were blunt instruments To beat a hole in their defence Of this beauty and her innocence Which serves to build resistance In spite of all my good intents. The beat that my heart skipped This is the beat that my heart skipped This is the beat that my heart skipped This is the beat that my heart skipped when we first met Now that I've heard it, it leaves me with a kind of regret No disrespect But we just left a lot of people upset What we had wasn't really what we'd come to expect This is the beat that my heart skipped when we first met Now that I've heard it, it leaves me with a kind of regret No disrespect But we just left a lot of people upset What we had wasn't really what we'd come to expect Well "good god damn" and other such phrases I haven't heard a beat like this in ages To miss such a beat would have been outrageous When your heart skips a beat it's ruthless and aimless Bom bom bom bad-i-ba bad-i-bad-i-ba bom ba-o-a-o Bom bom bom bad-i-ba bad-i-bad-i-ba bom ba-bom-bom-bom She caught my attention in her fishnets And then she reeled me in expecting nothing more than kissed necks and quick sex But that weren't the case with this platinum princess She'd attracted my interest So I wanted to impress Upon her all the positive things That come from having more than just a one night fling But that's something easier in theory than in practice Since pick up lines are tactics To get prey to the mattress And this actress Is practiced In shunning such theatrics When put upon daily by tactless geriatrics So my genuine advances are met with po-faced scepticism Throwing compliments but she just straight elects to miss them Her lips were put on this earth for dispersing wisdom God forbid I suggest she lets me kiss them But I really want to know what she thinks of me Because I'm loving every idiosyncrasy But I ain't one to jump through hoops to make the first impression Been there, done that, learnt the worst of lessons We want to be loved for who we appear to be instead of who we are Our real selves take a back seat behind the pomp and the façade That's as true of the rude boys, downing pints and acting hard As of the kids shunning convention with clinical disregard This is the beat that my heart skipped And it went...

[@danxepha4535]

I wish there was a better quality version of this video on KZbin. 240p for maximum resolution is a bit rubbish.

[@TheCorrectionTroll]

Buy the CD thn ;)

[@Denemil]

Or use spotify

[@danxepha4535]

Sam Lumley Erm... the music video isn't on the CD.

[@danxepha4535]

No idea you meant th mv ;p

[@thesmirkingwolf]

I can't remember the GunTuber that used this for his intros before it really blew up. His intro was perfectly timed to match the gunfire with the chop noise. Genius

where has this been all my life? I feel like i've been missing an entire way of life till tonight.

[@MonkeyBscts]

Don’t think I’ve ever seen the video for this before, an absolute classic. Is that Paloma Faith or am I seeing things?

[@subliminalpansies8400]

That is Paloma, yes

[@chevkoch]

A sound of 2010 that's actually not wanting to be somewhen else. Right here, right now. Fantastic.

Wow I can't believe that it's been 8 years since I accidentally stumbled upon this as a kid. I'm glad I did...

[@deasuin]

There is a great film that shares this song's name.

[@femridinghood]

I can't stress how much I love the little bite-snarl Pip gives in the very beginning.

[@DefensorsPacis]

I love how even when he went mainstream, or at least to an extent, he still remained the rebirth of lyrical Jesus. Truly amazing, Scroob.

[@OM3N1R]

I have to thank the SFF (Sage Francis Forum) for supporting this. I really like it!

[@RobTFilms]

This is good.

[@Phalanx939393]

Just met Scroobius and Dan in my hometown an hour ago. Cool dudes.

Bum bum bum Gary Baaaar- Gary Gary Baaarlow Baaarlow bum bum.

[@jmorris999]

I ain't gonna take it no more. I ain't gonna take it no more. I ain't gonna stand idly by while the bridal reply of a marriage of styles is "Yeah, but what's their demographic?" I ain't gonna take it no more. I ain't gonna take it no more. I ain't gonna stand idly by with a tut and a sigh while inside we all cry *out* for something new. I ain't gonna take it no more. I ain't gonna take it no more. Soulless music, artless lyrics. Goalless movements, heartless gimmicks. Controlled and clueless, careers lasting a minute. If this is the big life, well I ain't lookin' to live it. We ain't pushing the boundaries, we're blowing them up. We ain't trying to expand the scene, we want the scene to erupt. So make some room on the floor and somebody bolt the doors cos tonight.. we ain't seeking applause. Tonight.. Well, gee… we're just looking to have some good new-fashioned fun, y'all.

[@galleif]

this man, is the definition of music with a message

[@Jcold320]

damn. I typed in British rap (cause I was curious and I had time to kill; I wanted to see if y'all had rap) and this was fucking amazing.

[@RawJaee2011]

British rap is called grime normally. This is spoken word. Have a search for professor green and that gives you a mainstream idea of what 'British rap' is like :)

[@samuelashdown7994]

Afro formed i'm baffled on how anyone could call akala shit, its just as pertinent as scroob just faster and angrier. Different tastes i guess. one love

[@illiteratethug3305]

Don't bother with Pro Green, he's shit. If you want some suggestions for UK rap try Ty - 'Like You Never', Roots Manuva 'Dreamy Days', Cee Why 'Water Torture' Skinny Man 'I'll Be Surprised'

[@leinadznef]

Plan B is pretty good

[@illiteratethug3305]

leinadznef I never got massively into Plan B, but I always respected him for not being afraid to try something different.

[@VVicklow]

This is music. The most underated artists, ever.

[@rottenfiggy]

Anyone have an instrumental version of this (without vocals)? I couldn't find one, but I think it'd be pretty cool to listen to.

[@shoppingtrollyrebel2985]

YMS tends to use the instrumentals as a backing track in his reviews, so try checking his track listings to see if there is anything about an instrumental version of this

[@quasarone3083]

Yes. The girl with black hair getting chatted up by the bar

[@TackyFairy]

+systemfailure101 I was thinking the same thing, that is WELL one of her signature hair pieces :)

[@McFearsome2]

She is a beautiful girl, is Paloma. She stands out from the crowd. and that voice of hers. my goodness.

[@DanJonesPoet]

I was thinking that too, However, having seen Taboo (currently on the bbc I player) there's an actress in there that looks just like her! plays an actress that turns up in ep2. Scroobius Pip and Tom Hardy are in it!

[@Fezzz182]

I ran away from my oxfam work to see them was just awsome!

[@AngryFace008]

so your heart went "boom boom boom bady baaaaaaa bady bady boooow boooooow" ( •_•) you should get that checked out

Aw, why'd they cut out the spoken word monologue at the beginning? *I AIN'T GONNA TAKE IT NO MORE!*

[@Redtheseer]

it isn't even the same recording

[@Robinzorz]

Just wondering.. How many of the people here who like this usually like Alternative/Rock music? Cause everyone I know who listens to this usually does, and the people who I know who usually listen to rap/hip-hop music havent even heard of Dan&Pip.. Anyway, this is REALLY good. the whole Angles album is just awesome. :) those Lyrics..whoow.

1:23 Paloma Faith?

[@necrolet]

Ah, the old internet courage. Anyhow, I think that the lyrics are a part of what makes this song so amazingly fantastic. Intelligent lyrics and a good beat and intonation merge together to create a unique and interesting sound.

[@killermod0]

I first heard this song like a couple years ago, been listening to it ever since. Classic.

[@theenforcer22]

Genius! Saw them at Skelmerdale Library on Wednesday night. Brilliant live and two top blokes, got to meet them afterwards and got autographs and a photo with them. There was also a Q&A session with Scroobius Pip before the support act came on! I should have been cheeky and asked for a copy of the album (my copy was in my car stereo when it got stolen!). I've still got it on my ipod though, so can still have 'my fix'!
