For anyone who doesn't know, Liverpool was a hotbed of unemployment at the time and a lot of demonstrations and riots took place there. A "UB40" was a brown card given to the unemployed to take with them to Government stations to sign the unemployment register in order to receive meagre Government payouts.

I remember them doing this on The Tube in the 80s, and thinking "Going Down To Liverpool" only has one verse repeated three times, no chorus as such, barely any lyrics, no great depth or meaning, and yet... It's fucking brilliant!! Listening now, it's so simple but it hits a sweet vibe and sucks you right in. You too wanna "go down to Liverpool and do nothing for the rest of your life" with these cool-assed people!! My favourite Bangles track by far.

A Bangles song about Heroin. In the mid-1980s, an influx of cheap brown heroin gave Liverpool another bad reputation as “smack city”. Other parts of the Mersey Region, including the areas of the Wirral and Bootle had similar high levels of heroin use

I forgot the drummer sang this song, great voice. This is one of those easy breezy song gems that simply works on every level without trying too hard. A totally underrated song with a great hook and next level melodies. This is the type of song most bands wish they had in their catalog. Whenever this song came on the radio it instantly lifted the energy and positivity in the room, car, or wherever it was played.

This was my lockdown song. On furlough, unemployment looming. Walking on my own in the sun listening to this. Felt like it was apt (except I was 30miles up the road in Manchester)

I have said it before and will say it again. One of the best pop songs of the 80s. I live it as much today as I did back in 1984 I had so hoped it would be a huge hit for them. Its the perfect pop song in the perfect key with perfect harmony. I wish we had a time machine

I remember watching this video with my dad once in the early 2000’s and he described Leonard Nimoy’s facial expressions as “What the heck am I even doing here??” 😂😂 Anyway, this song is absolutely amazing and I think Walk Like an Egyptian overshadowed this song. Either way, this is a great song and band

Vicki Peterson's comedic timing at 1:21 is awesome! This is such a great song! Debbi Peterson plays drums and sings lead on this! (I remember seeing this on MTV's "Live at the Syria Mosque" in PA back in 1986.) The Bangles are the best when it comes to 4-part harmonies!!

This song is about heroin. In the mid-1980s, an influx of cheap brown heroin gave Liverpool another bad reputation as “smack city”. Other parts of the Mersey Region, including the areas of the Wirral and Bootle had similar high levels of heroin use
