Mike Skinner's recordings as the Streets marked the first attempt to add a degree of social commentary to Britain's party-hearty garage/2-step (and later grime) movement. Skinner was initially an outsider in the garage scene. Although his initial recordings appeared on Locked On, the premiere source for speed garage and 2-step from 1998 to the end of the millennium, he listened first to hip-hop, then house and jungle.

The Streets biggest hits include “Blinded By The Lights”, “Dry Your Eyes”, “Don’t Mug Yourself”, “Fit But You Know It”, “Let’s Push Things Forward” and “Has It Come To This”. The iconic Streets catalogue also includes the albums “Original Pirate Material”, “A Grand Don’t Come For Free”, “The Hardest Way to Make an Easy Living”, “Everything Is Borrowed” and “Computers and Blues”.

Lyrics:
I get back from touring and suddenly it doesn't seem like much fun to be off my face at a quarter to 11 A.M
You're pranging out, I see through you (I feel awful)
There's voices talking to me, this ain't funny
(The iron's been on in my house for four fucking weeks)
I see through you, I'm about to do something stupid
I dare say why my manager got lairy and smacked me
These headaches are getting unbearably nasty
Staring at the crack work, looking scary with my brandy
The rock n' roll cliche walked in and then smacked me
Carelessly rackin' out prangs just to handle the fear
I do a line, but then panic and feel a bit prang'd
So I glug Marlon from the bottle to ease off the panic
Then when it starts wearing off, I just feel a bit sad
Snort more tour support, and then have a drink
The bruise on the side of my head is madly banging
The only reason I started this was the deal me a laughing
The only reason I started this was the deal me a laughing
You're pranging out, I see through you
There's voices talking to me, this ain't funny
I see through you, I'm about to do something stupid
The girl in my bed is kinda distant right now
I know she's thinking she's a bit frightened somehow
I don't think she realised what I'd invited her back to my house
I don't want anyone to see me like this right now
All sorts of thoughts rolling back in my eyes
I've been a poor sport, thoughts dance in my mind
A banging headache, dancing prang'd by their side
Dancing with the pictures from the past of my life
I don't remember any of what I just thought at all
The conclusion prior to when I forgot it all
Panicking a bit, getting frightened of fuck all
So, nursing my bruise, I drink right from the bottle
I don't want anyone I know to see my like this
My fibs in single became lies in lists
She's gonna sell-tell no doubt, fuck it
I'm not gonna start drinking, no, I can't for now
My laptop must have slipped down and gone to sleep
Before the prang, this pain was to dawn on me
Around the time I was sketching, trying to con some sleep
And the new day on me was nearly dawning in here
I must have flaked while I inputted, waging loads more
'Cause I staked on bookings, way to total score
Why do I break my rules not to wager anymore?
I’d flaked on the bookings and majorly totalled on the score
I’ve got a simple problem, but my mind's spinning out
I remembered the website between the wine and the stout
The rush of fear made me forget how fucked I'd been
This time I’m drying my eyes and a fucking nose bleed
Turning my phone off when my promo bloke phones me
Evaded for it getting nasty when my manager
When he only beat me
I threw his wallet out the window as it had grown heated
He said, "Sort your life out", as he punched me over to my feet
Right now, logic states I need to be not contemplating suicide
'Cause rational thought, it would seem that I need not to be
Doing stuff that makes death seem like an easier option
I need a totally trojan plan right now
I see through you

Had a rough time after my first deployment, lots of booze and coke. This song spoke to me at a time when it was needed most 👍

[@kowalski7086]

[@robertingham3525]

Same here minus the deployment

[@Skindoggiedog]

One of the greatest songs ever created. This man is a genius.

[@ianjacka636]

I haven't stopped for too many days to count it's 3a.m. and believe me "I'm pranging oouuut" bigtime. This song was written for me i swear,lol. Very underrated track indeed.

[@Doughty321]

I was clean for years but I’ve fallen into my old ways again. I can’t help it.

[@tiedyesuit3097]

You’re stronger than you realise.

[@ede5302]

You've done it once you can do it again. Change your mindset. Find harmony between your heart and mind. Believe and it will be.

[@gubbi90]

3 years and 15 days without a relapse here. In terms of what helps quitting, I’ve found that it’s too individualised that I probably can’t say the right thing to help you get back on the horse, but if you would like to talk about it to a complete stranger, please pm me.

[@danielsayer9793]

Hands down one of the most underrated songs ever, pure genius.

[@narksdashark7591]

The Streets should do a Modern 2024 Remix on this song have people like Stormzy, d double, Etc. it would be mad.

[@murfontoast]

[@robertingham3525]

4 different forms of the word prang. Noun, verb, adverb and adjective. "carelessly racking out prang"

[@BasedinReality1984]

Winston smith approves!

Mental health is not a joke.

[@johnweenus3939]

It’s not mental health it’s drug abuse

[@braveconcepts]

Loads of you are pranging out right now.

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

So this song was about panic attacks

[@freidarhealness5216]

[@lungsworld9566]

Perceive it how you may.. it will still do its job 👌🏼

[@nigelbenn4642]

Think he wrote this at 27, could have easily been in the club, it wasn't looking good for him. Fair play pulled it back from the brink.

[@Craicfox161]

Thank god for a good quality upload!

[@rb1207]

Entering the new decade pranging badly, thanks for everything Mike 🌹

[@attinisweehee2089]

Where ye been....top class ☝

[@hareonananvil]

The press maligned/were dismissive of this record. I've heard on media Mike be self-critical of it since, too. I think The Hardest Way To Make An Easy Living is an excellent record, and an addition to The Streets' catalogue that offers something different too. I love this track - from the opening line throwing you right into the state of mind, it reflects the nightmare of when we're lost and grace is nowhere to be found, long-gone, forgotten. Love the version on Jools Holland. Saw him at Leeds around this time, with the Miami Vice-style suits. Great gig

[@nicklegend2271]

I fxxking know that feeling of pranking out, especially with all the magic about nodays😳 Prangster de la keor.!

[@rb1207]

Hardest way to make an easy living is the best The Streets album imo

[@willbarker3448]

Original pirate material is clear imo

[@chrissantos5580]

I disagree but it is vastly underrated a lot of brilliance in it

[@therealbathin_apex3]

love you forever Skinner ❤
