[Kelly14UK]

The bad guys or the  black gas?

[muemmelmaennchen]

Auch in good old germany war das damals der absolute Knaller.....super

[bluejeckett]

That was Chris Barrie at the start impersonating Regan

[Kelly14UK]

Checked Wiki. OMFG REVELATION!

[MrBaggy69]

i love the line where the announcer says " if any member /your grandmother dies in the shelter place her outside after tagging for identification purposes " that line changes through the song

and ronnie raygun saying " its enough to make you wonder if your on the right planet .....remembering him as i do thats an appropriate line lol

[MrHEC381991]

Man i miss the 80's

*sniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiff*

[TheRealDjango]

When you hear the air attack warning, you and your family must take cover!!!

[tonybass]

One word

Eargasm!

Trevor Horn's second hit with Frankie marked yet another technological revolution: 24-track digital recording. "Back in the mid-80s we had 24-track Sonys. I had one of the very first 24-track Sonys in 1984. And 'Two Tribes' I think was the first number one single on a Sony 24-track digi. 'Two Tribes' was completely digital."

5:00 best part of the whole thing

[jimpleasant]

This mix was massive and today in 2011 it still remains massive...perhaps on of my all time favorites....truly a masterpiece<3

[ironmikeh1000]

This is the version KROQ played all the time - Richard Blade, Jed the Fish et al. I agree this is the best mix.

[marklee125]

Annihilation Version

[QUASARA]

this is definitely the bes t mix i've heard yet of two tribes. -djQ

[DiCam3667]

This was one of the best groups and CDs of the 80s. I was 16 bu OMG we used to jam jam jam at the clubs. This brings back memories of sneaking into Lime Light in manhattan

[spikeyyak]

The first time I heard this version I was in a shoe shop in town and I thought it WAS the 3 minute warning....scared the crap outta me!! LOL

[kingofthedammed]

@spikeyyak

yep same here in chelmsford!!!

i was in a record shop called parrot records and i ran out !!!

[harchiongkai]

"If any member of your family should die....

tag them first for identification purposes...."

This version sent chills when I first heard it...amazing song

[emielnijhuis]

i agree; the best 12 " EVER!

[danieldunican]

this was the one they would have played in clubs.

[sawtooth808]

@danieldunican this is the version they play at clubs, a LONG while ago (Thanksgiving 2001) I heard Derrick May play this, and the crowd went nuts.

[tomstickland]

I've got all the various versions, this is the best. The Carnage mix is nice too.

[hamishmcd]

Possibly the best 12" ever recorded. Trevor Horn - genius . . .

[Corrupt5358]

@hamishmcd Yeh i thought the same, 80's music ruled! And that was just about as good as it could get! Brilliant bass line, incredible sound, so addictive, so euphoric. Meaningful lyrics too.

I see youtube has taken down the version with president Nixon talking at the beginning - can someone plz reupload it?

[danspeakermann]

Ahhh....awesome. THIS is the version of this song I used to listen to in the mid-80's. I thought for some reason this was the version I had on my original CD of WTTPD?? Obviously I must have bought this 12" single of it back then...I'm so confused. Where did you get this? I can't find a download source to get it from that I know or trust. Would love to have this!

[spectreduloft]

@danspeakermann check your tube mail

This song summed up the fears my generation grew up with - there were films about it, I joined CND when I was 17 - I'm still not 100% convinced that it has gone away.
