I am about to become 66, I was a true skinhead girl with two tone tonic strides!! I love this song, not many people know it. this is the first time I have found it on the internet.

[@belle3394]

and we used to get in a straight line and do boxed steps... oh wow i was 12, my dad came to collect me....oh the shame haha

So I'm a bit confused here... Your a skinhead like neo Nazi?? Or ARIAN FRONT NATION SKINHEAD?

Bully for you.

I'm 67 and still love the music had a wonderful time being a skinhead. Happy times

[@Arthurian.]

I wish more ska bands had this style. It's usually more punks at thier shows. I got to see English Beat few years back,just before covid shut the world off. It was great seeing rudies & skinheads, they just aren't common anymore.

This is so wonderful, I remember loving ska music as a young person.

[@Sinnerboy88]

Well we had anyways. Now there's just chavs and that's nothing to be proud of. Personally, I feel the death of the last real, home grown British subculture was probably the Madchester scene which for the most part had fizzled out over thirty years ago. And if we're being honest, even it was nothing compared to the groups we had from the 50s to the 70s. Personally I blame the rise of tech.. the internet, constant connectivity etc. Back in the day scenes developed more regionally, more organically back in the past before internet.. there was only the odd magazine of TV programme to see what was happening around the country, never mind the world.. so there was opportunity for unique subcultures to flourish and grow in their own way. Now we just live in a huge, one single, global culture and to honest I think it sucks. Sure, we have gained some things, for one there's a wealth of knowledge out there now, you can find anything you want to know or buy online.. you didn't have to go 150 miles by train to get the clothes or boots you want, you can order them and have them here in the post the next day.. but on the other hand we have lost so much. Its good that reunions keep the past alive because its all we have.. a memory of a better time.

[@robertgoldthorpe1652]

Reminds me of the late 70's eary 80's at the youth disco's. At my high school there was a group of about 20 skins and the same mods and punks that walked round the school with their gear on, skins with the drainpipe turn up jeans, braces, punks with the coloured hair, there was 18 hole DM's and piercings in every part of the head and mods with the parkers with the targets on the back. Sometimes they'd have a row and as a first year at high school it was a real eye opener, that said most of the time everyone got on, there were fights everyday but I loved my school days and it was a great era for music, better than today's load a shite

[@gazevanschooselife1207]

Of course the checkerboard, associated with ska, came about in the late 70's early 80's with Jerry Dammers, of The Specials, and the Two Tone era. It's strange how nobody is bringing up The Specials

Love to see the old school generation still dressing up and keeping the style alive. Fashion just for fashion means nothing, but some movements comes with certain fashions that we abandon when we grow to fit in. I love ska but I'm more into metal and try to do my part to keep my community's fashion alive. Things like this are not aprecciated until time passes.

[@jivanvasant]

SKA FASHION, MUSIC & DANCE [10:09] The energetic, stylish boy wearing yellow braces and bleached denim dances a modified dub-step shuffle that is hypnotic, entrancing and rhythmic. Ska is fast dance music that became known to the world in the late ‘50s. It’s known for combining Jamaican mento rhythms with American rhythm and blues. And, it uses jazzy instruments like trumpets, trombones, and saxophones to give the mento vibes. The guitar is also one of the main instruments of ska. The songs of this genre have frequent jumpy rhythms, and the lyrics are more often than not talking about local issues.

I can remember in my younger days executing various dance steps such as the skank , the mosh pit , the stage dive , the slam dance , and also being very adept at various moves such as head bopping and just getting into a worked up state complete with all kinds of horseplay , let me just include that in my day I was always known as one of the more rowdy and just generally unruly type characters at the majority of the concerts , bars , clubs , house parties and also just when music was being played in any medium up to and including just whistling and snapping my fingers ... of course my consumption of alcoholic beverages was at an all time high and I could afford the premiums . And also I was really good at just what many call or speak of as carousing ..
