Sham 69 - If The Kids Are United (Live, 1978)

[@rangercal1]

We need more bands like them today. They are dearly missed.

[@anitaevans2432]

They still tour & remain absolutely brilliant. I saw them at the weekend 🎉

[@OAFC98]

Now the kids are divided we’ll never be united 😢

[@richardplume3212]

Agree media is kin hitler

[@jacklangus9092]

Just as good today 2020 as it was back then.

[@andysandel9325]

THE BRILLIANT SHAM 69 WHO SPOKE OUT FOR US ON COUNCIL ESTATES ❤

[@marburyeducation]

Can remember storming down Kingston upon Thames high street circa 1978 with Rockabilly's, Teds, Skins and Mods shouting this.........makes a change from fighting each other.............so made some difference I guess..............

[@MRROCKET23]

+Marbury Education Services Was that after a Sham gig at Kingston Baths or Town Hall or wherever,I heard there was a riot or something ?

[@starbird1111]

You did. You have. You always will. Your soldiering has never been in vain. It is a debt we shall repay day after day. 👊🏼👊🏻👊🏿👊🏾👊🏽

[@Fruzzio1]

I like the drum in front of the band

[@Kohntarkosz]

Yeah, they did that a lot on Top Of The Pops.

[@Deetroiter]

This and do anything you wanna do Eddie and hot rods are some of my all time top tracks

[@fernandokosovel600]

HYMN ,for the youth,in age or spirit,of the entire WORLD

[@GazBobTalks]

Sham didn't write songs, they wrote anthems!

[@Offcash96]

Saw first this song I was 14, now a days I'm 25, still brutal

[@bartolorodro4444]

there is a big path out there.. xD

[@destroyerofstones6940]

WORKING CLASS!

[@Abuamina001]

Excellent music.

[@robertharrold4214]

Great guitar riff.

[@tregoboing]

What a great song to get angry and run around the room kicking things over! That's about my middle aged level of anarchy.

[@ihorwulf1690]

i love this song :)

[@MarcLatham]

'For once in my life I've got something to say, I wanna say it now, cos now is today.' Jimmy Pursey, Sham 69. 'Never good at talking, so many things I couldn't say But those thoughts never went away' Mike Muir, Suicidal Tendencies.

[@OscarCapac]

El pueblo unido jamas sara vencido !

[@bluestar.8938]

Thank You : )

[@MRROCKET23]

It was a great pity more of Pursey's numbskull following didn't take notice of the sentiments of this track which are as relevant today as back then.

[@黒魔匡]

My work inspired by this.

[@valteregon]

in 1980,before the oi movement, this was the dirty filth of the streets.I love them,now and then. (the band made a tour in china 2010 or something like that, witch you can find on the net) love you and thanks..

[@anitaevans2432]

They're still touring in 2023. Superb experience!

[@antonystringfellow5152]

If only people would listen. On the surface, this might seem like just another shallow Punk/Pop song. Listen and you will see... this is much more than that. This is about people like me and you against those who seek to continue dominating us.

[@lejlatiric7037]

Well said!

RattlesnakeBob OH ! For F*ck sake ...n' "memories they were " ...the best times ... for the wrong reasons...

[@VincentRE79]

[@subcultz1073]

changed or ruined my life this track :)

[@morgan1985uk]

Did the same to my dad. Then he decided to introduce me to it. ✊

[@ReverendGreenLight]

United! United! United! United!

[@stephanswaan6895]

By music

[@javedsingh7777]

Maybe they should play this 24/7 at every Mosque in Bradford! As if people listen or care...What a twat I am!

[@javedsingh7777]

Fuck off! I lived through it! Grow up boy! Have a fight! You may begin to understand... What do you know of Giani culture? Of Singhs and their history or lack of it!

[@kieranjohnson9178]

+Javed Singh So What!! im 64 and i live in Waltham so dont speak like you know everything boy!!

[@javedsingh7777]

+Kieran Johnson You are a sad little shit who has no idea of irony, humour, or even on the base, vulgar sarcasm. Waltham! Waltham on Thames? Where Messers Pursy and co came from? Ha! Govan! That's me!!! So don't usher out nonsense without context. My point was that Pursey was talking about tolerance, trying to understand the differences between kids, culture, roots etc... The initial jibe that got you to respond was at the insular nature of certain religions and at this moment there is only one flying that flag so openly. Although I admit my old man's religion is equally wank but it doesn't kill common bystanders!

[@javedsingh7777]

+Kieran Johnson Islam is not a race! Grow up Mr 64 from Waltham on Thames!

[@kieranjohnson9178]

+Javed Singh yes i live in waltham on thames,people in here are tolerance not like you alien from venus.... by the way thank you for correcting me mr funny, Singh people arent islamophobe,you arent one of them...

[@morriganravenchild6613]

Thank God groups like Sham came along and kept rock alive amongst all that junk from the likes of like Floyd and Geneses who had betrayed the Underground.

[@scrumsie]

Live 1978... really? Never! It's obviously a playback TV appearance, Top Of The Pops or something like that.

[@Jlipnicki]

Kids ? They were all over 20 like the Pistols. Never got this kids thing.

[@xtiannavs8882]

[@waynedaly100]

No, his vocal is live, thats why the Clash would not do TOTP because they could not play live, no one could

[@timbayliss4153]

Please could someone tell me what football team this is dedicated to

[@eugenesidwell8923]

YNWA

[@alvarezzzaz]

[@masonnoodles]

I love this band, but the lead singer looks like If Mick Jagger and willem dafoe had a kid

[@liamthurley7522]

Skins rule

[@vordman]

The implication being there is some sinister governmental conspiracy stopping da kids gettin' down with each other. What a load of crap, there's nothing working-class kids love more than having a scrap with their peers.

[@akb48lvr]

Jim Carey sang for the Bay City Rollers ? .. shit, learn something new everyday

[@Kohntarkosz]

Still prefer the Mama's Boys version.
