Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You need your stars; even killers have prestige
Access to a living you will not see
24 hour boredom, I'm convicted instantly
Gorgeous poverty of created needs
[Chorus]
Slash and burn
Kill to live
Kill for kicks
3rd world to the 1st
Kill to live
[Verse 2]
Worms in the garden more real than a McDonalds
Drain your blood and let the Exxon spill in
Look around here, and you see nothing is very real
Chained to economy now famine has been
[Chorus]
Slash and burn
Kill to live
Kill for kicks
3rd world to the 1st
Kill to live
[Post-Chorus]
That's all you need
That's all you need
That's all you need
That's all you need
[Verse 3]
Madonna drinks Coke and so you can too
Tastes real good not like a sweet poison should
Too much comfort to get decadent
Politics here's death and God is safer sex
Uh uh uh uh
[Chorus]
Slash and burn
Kill to live
Kill for kicks
3rd world to the 1st
Kill to live
[Chorus]
Slash and burn
Kill to live
Kill for kicks
3rd world to the 1st
Kill to live
[Post-Chorus]
That's all you need
That's all you need
That's all you need
That's all you need

My 71 year old Grandma showed me this song and I'm proud she's my Grandma.

[@el-dl4um]

i want your grandma

[@3798penisholder]

what?? what has grandma been UP to?

[@tomt6142]

I showed it to your Grandma

[@missjuanita5804]

Your Grandma is cooler than me!

[@ricardojmestre]

That is amazing 👍🏼

[@glenh2752]

It’s like he was born with a voice that instantly cuts the mix. Superb musician and literally hasn’t aged.

[@cynzia_d]

James was a machine in 90s i have seen them in 97 when they came to Italy He sang one song after the other , very angry and cold in some ways , it was after Richey disappeared. So the band was already in another phase. But i remember He had a powerful voice

[@makikomi]

Can't understand why this was missed off their Greatest Hits album (Forever Delayed). It's one of their best.

[@sopotniachannel]

This band deserves golden medals

[@biocykle]

@madisoncathcart5265 Holy Bible though

[@robynmcsharry9611]

As Marxists, they would not want gold medals. I certainly would not anyway considering the dangerous working conditions of gold miners, shitty pay and violent managers.

[@connorchapman7157]

An out and out rock song, practically non-existent nowadays. A band with passion, balls, looks, charisma and ability to write quality tunes

[@callmeace3112]

So true . No one writes like this The Manics before and after Richies dissappearance the 3 continued thier styltsh pioeeremg way of u of language and hope they will be around aslong me. Hearts!XXXX❤❤❤❤😢😢🎉🎉🎉😅😅😅😅

[@callmeace3112]

Seriously trim and slick as James on stage looks as fit as a fiddle ....mmmmmm Oh ffs!! Cant take my eyes off f him as he does Roses In The Hospital in white jeans and white t shrt ..feel like stipping him of his guirar and pinning to my bloody bed right now and more besides ...❤❤❤❤❤😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@piperbell5679]

Nothing beats some baby manics(:

[@oldschoolm8]

Listening to the early stuff, you can really hear their Guns 'n' roses influence. The big riffs, cocky swagger, in your face attitude....... total G'n'R.

[@RyleeStrange]

I know they've said that Generation Terrorist is supposed their appetite for destruction, but i just don't hear it. maybe it's cos the voices are just too different for me to hear it/

[@krischarlton7637]

Rylee Strange i think they were talking about the pomp and attitude rather than being mimics

[@ibelieveicansoar]

Not to mention the inclusion of the word Slash in this song’s title

[@unclerogerANKI]

Except more brains and thoughtfulness in this single tune than in the whole G'n'R discography

[@oldschoolm8]

@Big Bob c’mon, this riff could’ve been on appetite!

[@j.b.9260]

Look at the abs on JDB. He wasn't kidding when he said everything must go.

[@Alianger]

Why'd he get fat anyway?

[@kkow27]

Alianger i remember nicky saying that james and sean are real into food and cooking and all that so that’s probably why

[@pandapopchart4950]

@@Alianger He got old. It happens very easily, believe me.

[@heppolo]

@@pandapopchart4950 also JDB is not as tall as Nicky, so it's pretty easy to let yourself go.

[@nikkidiamondz1]

Ah, it does alright 😅

[@alyssaemiko]

holy shit, those abs; dude's fucking ripped.

[@pedroh77]

Alyssa Emiko haha. Yeah, its not like I browse KZbin for dudes abs, but it's something you can't ignore about this video.

[@jamesbowers7343]

Pedro Albuquerque he might have worked out with fellow welshmen Kris Gethin and Neil Hill (of bodybuilding.com fame)

[@saintnicole3209]

Well yeah also he's in his mid-forties.

[@Wasp239]

Richey is so beautiful

[@spanishpeaches2930]

I just can't get over how bollockingly heavy and thunderous it is between 2:45 and 3: 00 mins. Stupendous mix.

[@jamiefoyers2800]

Started working through this album by the Manics...hell of an opener...just read the lyrics on the sleeve notes while listening...it makes all the difference...

[@HelenWaldron-g3s]

Sean Moore is the best drummer on planet earth

[@Dermacrosis]

A friend of mine introduced me to these guys and I said to him I would have JDB anyday of the week and he was "Why?". I told him to check out this vid and he came back "I would too". He was too late I had first dibs. :-)

[@adrianbunyard6015]

Doesn't really get better than that does it. Manic street preachers at their finest.

[@LCx829]

In the 90s when I was a wee young lassie I would go to the record store for hours looking for CDs to buy. Generation Terrorists is one I bought while browsing. Amazing album. I’m mid 40s now but I will never forget those days. $5 would get you a used cd and I’d buy a stack of them. Now you go to places like Ameba Records or online and it’s $30 because it’s rare.

[@jasonwaterfalls9]

This is a better mix than the album...and they sound like real drums!

[@Greggorious123]

JDB rocking the body builder look :)

[@krischarlton7637]

dont think he dedicated much time to eating food back then

[@w0bbl3r]

Kris Charlton He made up for that the last 15 years

[@zoekuul]

This 'First Preach' was a legend. So impressive.

[@melissawright1979]

I hope Richey is still alive somewhere x x

[@basedsouljah]

I'm sure youve heard the whole Goa, India rumors by now, but quite a number of people swear by it him living in Goa somewhere.. I believe it to be honest. He was a cultured man. I could see him wanting to get away from the mundane of Cardiff to go to India or some islands somewhere. Most of all though, I just don't think he committed suicide. Seemed out of character.

[@mojopin70]

Absolute nonsense, he had already attempted suicide at least once before he finally disappeared, Goa as James Dean Bradfield said is ' b movie terrority' who are you to think you know more than someone who grew up with him...

[@michaelgraham9774]

@@mojopin70 Get over yourself

[@virgilhilts8241]

I think he was in so much pain, he wanted to stop that storm in his head anyway anyhow. I cry to think about it. Nobody has or hasn’t got the temperament for it-whatever a temperament is. The guy was seriously ill.

[@LeppardPrintAnimal]

@@basedsouljah Now there's meant to be evidence that he's married and living in Australia.

[@ljiljanastanic9076]

Phenomenal band,adore them,all songs are excellent!!!

[@simonhunter3430]

they looked amazing.

[@aiHappiness]

if this band was American they would have been bigger than guns and roses sad because they were and are brilliant

[@Hallucination]

Hahaha yeah ok

[@lea-anne9133]

American wouldn't be able to handle the Manics. They don't exactly appreciate complex narratives in music 😅

Jdb = lush, that body though. Love the manics soooo much xxx

[@virgilhilts8241]

I know- lush. 28 years have passed, but i’d still like a crack! Oh 28 yrs have passed for me too..if he is ever up Treorchy way .......

What a bastard of a riff to play

[@anthonykearney5067]

Bought that cd album for 50c on ebay back in the day Changed me

Unlikely,.

[@melissawright1979]

I love this band. But I was too young to appreciate them back when these amazing songs were first released. They were so beautiful back then 😍😍

[@GeorgeODowdRiokolove]

What a bloody classic ^_^

[@Leemnc1]

From a time when James had the confidence to take off his shirt, he wouldn't do it now.. Great song great band...

[@tcaudiobooks737]

I think the loss of Richey caused him to let himself go a bit.

[@Observing-NPCs]

And Sean somehow got in shape Lol

[@joevolpini137]

2:48 I love the riff soooo catchy!

[@dj-um7el]

Facts!

"Hello world. We're Manic Street Preachers. We're so clever that it'll kill you. I'd tell you to buckle up, but our car doesn't need seatbelts. We're far too fucking intelligent to die. Now listen as we annihilate rock and then rebuild it in our godly image. Fucking hold on to something because we only have one speed: GO."

They came just at the right time, the way things are now we may never get an act like this............ well probably never.

[@stevenleyland6578]

So glad I saw them in the era never same after Ritchie went walkabout 😭

[@Dannyton1971]

Remember them performing this in 1992 like it was yesterday!! Great song.

[@Dermacrosis]

This is the song and vid that got me into MSP. THey had been around a while before I saw this and so off I went on a musical journey of listening to all their stuff. It was not a wasted one.

[@bryangyorgy2511]

First track I ever heard of theirs & was immediately hooked. Saw them a couple months after GTs release - the only time they played Toronto with Richey. 30 yrs later still a fan!

[@tomt6142]

If I looked like that, I would never ever wear a shirt

[@debz4722]

James 😍😍

I mean its easy to look ripped when you are the size of a middle schooler

[@laurahall3094]

Looks like a lot of work

​@@nesfan8 it's easy if you put effort in. Most people no matter what size look like shit today

[@thrasher1889]

Awesome jam. I first heard this album in 1991 or 92 when my bro Steven bought put it on trying to impress his new girlfriend Jane at the time, lol. Mind you I was trying to sleep next door at the time and all I hear is him blasting "Motorcycle Emptiness" I was like what on earth is that he's playing now, but when I heard Slash 'N' Burn I thought it was pretty cool.

[@enmagod5113]

God save the manics!

[@erikvernarsky256]

Richey come back to us :( we love you!

[@Electra_ascending]

I love the Manics. I need to meet you! Wish I'd gotten to in Folkestone when I was "a kid". I wasn't told you were playing there. Wasn't allowed out unsupervised by the "u*** sisters". Beautiful Bois, so talented, so sweet ❤
