the kid in the front stage in his suit is priceless....there's nothing close to this these days......

[@martindowning65]

Definitely, although there was a lot of racism in those days, there was also a lot of unity and community, sadly it will never be the same again 😢❤

Most bands these days use their security to keep fans from the stage , while Terry Hall invited them up to dance with them and have fun ., what a legend and a gentleman. Rest in eternal piece 🙏 you will live on with your fantastic music in all those who love you .

[@praetorianc130]

It has not been up to 48 hours since I saw this video, wondering how in all the years as a Specials fan I missed out on such a belter. And now here we are Terry Hall is gone… Alongside The Beat, Selecter and Madness my road to the discovery of Two Tone Ska was both colorful and joyful. Terry’s deadpan persona masked a fierce concern for social issues in the late 70’s and early 80’s. A large hearted man who shied away from accolades, fame and infamy… Truly an unsung British gem. Rest In Peace and thank you.

After all this years hearing this voice at some of the most important moments of my life, I can’t help feeling I lost a bro. Hope there’s something nice for you after the end Terry!!

[@tomrintoul7535]

I'm 26, never listened to the specials before December and been brought here after the passing of Terry. I think this video is absolutely incredible, and somewhat mesmerising. The shot of the stage, zooming out, while he sings about being alone, with the people dancing and Terry looking so down. In love with this song and their sound. RIP.

[@stilllaughing3959]

Really well said sir.I am not ashamed a tear fell on hearing that Terry passed away..Gone but not forgotten RIP

Safe travels Terry, you were the voice of my teenage years and my new found social conscience. We’ll all miss you and your beautiful voice. Love love love ❤

43 years ago to the day...my god...I was the same age then as some of those kids on the stage. Terry Hall's death has affected me more than I expected. Talk about someone being the soundtrack of your youth. I should have appreciated him more. R.I.P Terry and thank you.

Thanks for the video. It`s a plesure listen The Specials in the golden age. Terry Hall was the best singer of 2 Tone.

[@kevindodds9434]

All those fans on stage. Awesome

[@joysboy6588]

The little kid, shaven head, "suited & booted" is claas. But what's equally as class is 0:30, that lad helping that woman up on stage, with her two tone mini skirt. You can clearly see there's nothing in it, apart from her to, get up here and (ironically, quite literally) "enjoy yourself" with us. Good music can really bring out the good in people 🇬🇧🇯🇲🇬🇧 especially in my beloved Essex❤

[@bray65]

R.I.P. Terry Hall, Fantastic songwriter and performer, will be dearly missed. Thank you for the memories and the music. 🎼
