How Can You Stand There?!
How can you stand there when all around you is a lie
How can you stand there and not wonder why
what right to complain when so many much worse off than you
How can you stand there and just watch them do it?
How can you stand there come walk with me that extra mile
How can you stand there and not raise a smile
you must be paralyzed so little time so much to do
and soon you’ll realize that it’s down to you
cause it’s not over till you hit the top
it’s not over till you have to stop
it’s not over while we have a chance
it’s not over so come on and dance
How can you stand there x4
the warning signs all around this town
something’s up something’s coming down
made aware by the plagues and quakes
wound up tight like it’s gonna break
now the drums are thumping
blood is pumping
hands on the clock getting ready to stop
tires screaming engine smoking
look out driver the earth is choking
How can you stand there x4
• The English Beat Starr...

this is cool

[@Johnjohn-gq3du]

The English Beat are musical antidepressants. Bam.

[@anmolkataria5976]

Wow it is amazing

[@gentlegiant6585]

Live it 🤩! Great job! Used to play The English Beat tapes in my boombox and car at the beach (was a 🏄‍♂️in San Diego, California 🏖🏝🇺🇸) till they wore out. 😊. I need to buy this.

[@HexGirlMargy]

Scooby Doo Dave Wakeling forever! Skaaaa

[@evanraymondmusicandmindset2603]

fearless

[@gone496]

I love this song. I had the pleasure of supporting The English Beat live at Birmingham O2 on the 2nd June. Dave and his band are brilliant live.

[@sandykluth45]

That's super cool Alex! Please share!

[@billybeatnik]

Fantastic album! Absolutely love it.

[@SpringRubber]

It's Nov 2023 and we're going to see The Beat tonight at The State Theater, Falls Church VA. Puttin' on my comfy shoes!

[@Johnjohn-gq3du]

Because of this tune, all is well.

[@deanshore4107]

Love this tune and it was amazing to hear it live last night at SVF South / Stone Valley Festival in Hertfordshire

[@ukuleletheatre]

We love this Dave and everyone we speak to loves the new album 'here we go love'

Outstanding to have you back with some new music. Can't wait to see you again on your tour.

[@brendanclarke8393]

Go feet with the beat god they were the when living was so special rip ranking tev. And now terry hall. Most happiness days. Ever in history of going out. What a beautiful atmosphere 😍 ❤️ ✨️ 💖

[@RU55H]

'How can you stand there' and not tap your feet at this, toe tapping foot tapping brilliance.

[@callumsmith1444]

Oh its like its 1980. Top tune !!

[@daveforeman1406]

Back to the 80's

[@vernpascal1531]

Saw them in 82' Santa Barbara County Bowl opening for The Clash at the pinnacle of their popularity. Never got any better... I really like this.

[@Leo90003]

Bruh, I might be wrong but it kinda came out in 2018...

[@klawson71]

Love it!

[@keithbrain48]

Heard this on local radio t'other day & I like.

[@gofortfree]

Thank you David. I'm a long time fan and I needed that. Omg I needed that and vodka. Keep em coming. Cheers to you and to Roger and all the Beat everywhere for making life liveable. Peace and. love. See you again in the world cafe.

[@sandykluth2077]

Brilliant! Dave is friggin wonderful. ..enchanted with his smile and stories (cruising with the English Beat last week)!

[@stephenroche5107]

Dave 👍

[@Johnjohn-gq3du]

My this is a joy. Thanks. I know Ranking Roger had nothing to do with this, but whatever. Do not rip. Dance your ass off with your new friends in a place that is much better. Ranking Rogers passing led me to this lovely song, so actually he did have something to do with it. At toast to both Rogers!

[@caramac300]

Just brilliant ... love it

[@mattmoseley9689]

It is a very good song

[@philiptate8009]

Dave Wakeling: King Of Ska! Er, well... that maybe Desmond Dekker... but definitely the reigning Living King of Ska! Long live The Englsih Beat.

[@darrenbowles516]

Great to see them back great tune

[@sandysomewhere3822]

Bustling & Bright-Eyed! I should add I appreciate this as a catalyst to do its part in remedying apathy

[@ts051076]

This is one of the best tracks I`ve heard from this version of the Beat. It`s unfair to say one version of the Beat is better than the other. Both are great in their own ways.

[@BellaEstelleFans]

Brilliant

[@streetteams]

Rockin'.

[@gilbertdennissanchezramos2116]

English beat fantastic, thanks double nine FM the world best rock from lima peru, The inmortal and legendary, radio rock

[@andyclark9565]

Love this track, and indeed the whole album. Was hoping to catch you on tour last year, but obviously that didn’t happen ☹️ hopefully later this year. I still remember seeing the original line up back in 1980 at the Locarno, Birmingham. Happy days 😀🎷R.I.P Roger & Saxa ❤️

[@jasonjlodge]

Heard this on Steve Wright, bought it straight away and pre-ordered album! Bang on form!!!

[@termitesc.aardwolf3644]

Just finding out the English Beat has a "new" album. I used to listen to "I Just Can't Stop It" on midwestern car trips all the time with my mom as a kid. This slaps pretty hard.

[@gogoyubari366]

I'm waiting for this platinum selling smash hit album to arrive in the mail.

[@Prof_B]

Yes! Love it!

[@ukuleletheatre]

fair play to you Dave ... this is a great song cant stop listening to it

[@thomaswood4677]

Thought this was the specials sounds simular, good stuff! Nice to see good music coming out!

[@TheRetroman68]

Good song i like it

[@tracec8016]

Awesome!... great to see the old school ska back!

[@PrinceSkaGuerrera]

Brilliant!

[@TheArticulatingAnoraksPodcast]

Awesomeeee

[@sandykluth45]

Love it! ♡

[@carniceriaherminia520]

Hoy hace 2 años que estuvimos en "All Ages Records"... Curioso que la guarida del Punk está en "Prat Street" y viniendo de bcn y conociendo San Cosme (prat de llobregat) no os podéis imaginar la risa!....y los pratdelomismo!... Perdón, paralelomismos!!! Ja ja ja ja Allí descubrimos a la Banda y nos comentó el propietario de la tienda de discos (all Ages Records) , que había fallecido el vocalista hacía un mes. ... La camiseta que cogió Isabel era la portada del último Disco. .... Todo comenzó con una camiseta, esa chica poniendo música en un tocadiscos.... .... Luego resultó.... Que el Colega de la tienda conocía a mi brother Paco, de" la vida es un mús" y batería de Skandalu! Punk de Jaén y un punk hecho con leña de buenos maderos.... Jeje. Bueno.... Banda genial! Chutes de Arte con sus canciones. Es la muestra de cómo se rompe el silencio con tiempo y medida para complementar el disfrute de nuestras vidas. Gracias por romper el silencio. Gracias por vuestra Música. Salud!!! Luis el pollo

[@explosiveliveclips5054]

THE BEAT is BACK!

[@MultiBoomer64]

So good to have them back.

[@salatielpereira1439]

Muito bom. Sound of the heave.

[@petersaturday]

Nice work!! Sounds great-next album team up with with Ranking Roger!!! It's what we all want!!

[@gofortfree]

petersaturday yes please I agree

[@PoliceBoy465]

I think the wounds run too deep. Plus Roger has his son in his Beat.

[@petersaturday]

daddysensei Silver you may be right but life is just too short to not let things go and give it another go! fingers crossed..

[@TomWelliver]

ACE!!!

[@robpeebles6567]

Now this is what I call music

[@markryan2252]

hOME rUN!

[@TheRetroman68]

Nice

[@voodootrucker1896]

Rude Boys don't fail me now !

[@JamesPropmaker]

Also Ranking Roger The Beat has a new album out to

[@ts051076]

That album has been out a while. His Beat are releasing a new album later this year.

[@AnGoosen]

RIP Roger

[@raysharp5677]

reminds me of my skinhead days!

[@Johnjohn-gq3du]

The sound at 1 50 - delightfully confusing in a happy ass way.

[@Leo90003]

Shit, skank clothes comin on me itself

[@seantaundry2239]

Nice to see the beat are back, but not a great song.

[@ericgood8960]

Sean Taundry my thoughts exactly.

[@seantaundry2239]

Eric Good it gets better every time you listen to it.

[@ericgood8960]

Sean Taundry I agree it does get better the more one listens to it. I guess I was just hoping for the magic like the first time I heard Mirror In The bathroom. I like Roger's latest album very much and the intro song is not my favorite, so I still have high hopes for this upcoming album.

[@katoness]

Sean Taundry Agreed.

[@nickglick6322]

Let’s see you do better. Sit down and be quiet.

[@PoliceBoy465]

This song is okay. It doesn't compare to Beat classics. I haven't heard the album, but read a fan review that said it's more General Public than Beat sounding. Shame that Dave and Roger can't join forces and even get Everett in there.

[@katoness]

Ha,ha. That was my review.

[@anthonyclesley6549]

Lp

[@stephenroche5107]

A bit of bad manners hey.

[@katoness]

Fairly weak for a Beat song, considering some of the gems they have. Hope the rest of the album sounds better.

[@Keith-zu4tz]

Love it!
